Worked for me... except my su backup was su-backup not su_backup

Agreed, I initially tried su_backup and got some "directory not found" or somesuch, but su-backup seems to have worked.

UPDATE: I can confirm that this method restored root for me, su works in terminal emulator, and root access is accepted in Rom Toolbox Pro and Screenshot It.

Just to clarify 1) I didn't fast boot back to anything before I did this and 2) I ran Voodoo OTA rootkeeper just didn't temp unroot b4 installing ICS.

I'm still updating back to ICS, but just to clarify, is it /system/su_backup or /system/su-backup? Thanks!!!

Fixed my typo in the OP. According to feedback from other users, it should actually system/su-backup! Sorry, I'm exhausted today. Brain is fried after working on this all night last night!

Any help for us dumkoffs that didn't use root keeper to make a su backup? I still have su installed & in system/app, just no root permissions.

I don't think you can get root currently without making a backup, but you might be able to ask someone to upload their backup to you.

the terminal commands worked for me.... without a problem...i rs'd then rooted, unrooted after downloading, installed update, used voodoo keeper to restore root, but it didn't work... the terminal commands did though.

Would anyone be willing to upload a copy of your su-backup to help a brother out?

Thanks for the backup file. Now I've got to figure out how to get it into system.

Thanks for the backup file. Now I've got to figure out how to get it into system.

Is this possible with adb?

[lpulle]

What is meant by protect root when "protect root not temp unroot"? I have rootkeeper voodoo but when I run it, it says delete TI or temp unroot. Boy must be way behind

[shizumie]

Yaya!!

I just side loaded ICS via Vicious es explorer method, and then the Terminal method to restore root!!

[ka1z0ku]

Gratz, pretty excited now that I see more people having success with the ROM manager method.

I saw dh's post on twitter regarding the Terminal method. Do you just enter the long string of text within terminal? Unsure if it supposed to be multiple entries.
