I tried the same thing you said you did and got nothing. which build version are you on? im on this god forsaken .622 on the r2d2 and nothing will work for root. if anyone has heard any news about accomplishing it please let me know

I Tried it a bunch of times on .621 and could not obtain root.

Yeh that's about all anyone is going to get until a dev figures out the sbf now that it has finally been leaked

*alarmed sputter* from R2D2

I really don't know how it happened. Like, at all. But... it works now o.O'

i doubt you got root on .621/.622

I had it working until the data wipe I did today. Will report back with this attempt here.

No updates available, managed to get wifi tether for root users and ultimate backup to work properly. Trust me, I had it.

It looks like something about having it already rooted originally may help me here. Weird...

Here, have some video proof:
