calisro · 29th August 2012, 03:19 PM

did you verify the zip is good? redownload it? check md5 chksum?

how do you verify chk sum with what app ?

Make sure the zipfile opens in winzip or another zip utility. That doesn't verify the md5 but it'll probably chk well enough. redownload it and try again. lets at least rule out the zip.

Root without rootkeeper?

I got excited and updated to jellybean without checking anywhere, so I did not install rootkeeper. I was using the superuser app. I don't have anything like su-backup or su_backup.

Can I regain root? I am suspecting the answer is no.

Probably not without unlocking your bootloader.

I Used OTA before updating to JB and I do NOT have a restore button.

Status:

Superuser app installed = Yes
Device rooted = No
Root permission granted = No
/system supporrts root protection = Yes
Protected SU copy available = No

I have not been able to locate a thread showing how to resolve this, SuperSU fails to to gain Root access and I do not appear to have a working backup from OTA...
