Install terminal emulator and run it and type "su" and tell us what results you get.
it says permission denied.
read my post. already did.
I would say try rerooting but that's just me. I don't know how that will turn out. What process did you follow to root it?

My phone booted up, but once bored it gabe me the error. Perhaps when I tried to unroot I messed something up. I deleted some of the sd card files associated with the root

I'm in the same boat.
I used one-click to unroot and it said it was successful but Titanium Backup was still able to get root rights. Not sure what to do here.
When ever in doubt, SBF - Back to stock 2.1
WARNING: ONCE YOU APPLY OFFICIAL FROYO 2.2 YOU CAN'T USE THIS METHOD ANYMORE
Thanks for the reply dr. I rooted but stuck with 2.1. Would that method do anything for me?
Using Bootstrap? If so, delete /system/bin/logwrapper then rename logwrapper.bin to logwrapper. I did this and it worked.
I was not using Bootstrap.
Currently attempting to fix this by reinstalling all of the bloatware that I uninstalled (per this: droidxforums.com/forum/froyo-2-2-news-rumors-wishes/7471-froyo-2-2-ota-install-issues.html).
I thought I had backed up the apps before uninstalling them with Titanium Backup but I was unable to restore them and it seems that it only backed up the application data and not the applications themselves before uninstalling. Funsies. That was an unroot, re-root, unroot, re-root carousel that I never want to go on again.
So... I went here (chadhaney.com/droidXDefault/516/) and downloaded all of the apps that I uninstalled, put them onto my SD card and then used Root Explorer to paste them into the system\app folder because I'm not so good with the command prompt stuff that you all use (if you do use this method, make sure to click "Mount R/W" at the top to get into read/write mode otherwise you can't paste into the system folder... took me way too long to figure out).
I've manually installed all of the apps while the OTA downloads (for some reason no 3G at the office) and will report back once it's finished and I have either Froyo, another failed attempt or a bricked phone. Exciting, no?
More fail. Will update with any useful information.
Yea i can't install it either

I just wanted to say that this worked perfectly for me. Thank you so much.
Looks like I installed the wrong versions of the stock apks (516) and using the right version (604) did the trick.
GL to anyone still having troubles.
Pressing the Search key while it's unpackaging, I get this error:

Can someone link me to the stock framework-res.apk ?

I recently updated, using the files retrieved from this site, my rooted Bravo to 2.2.
Everyone posted saying it would unroot it in the process, however superuser is still there, and I cannot use it, get rid of it, or even reroot my phone. I need help :/

all you need to do is run superoneclick, choose psneuter and root it again. it disables the su binary when updated.

I tried, but then when I try using any program that requires root access, it can't find it. Rootexplorer, setCPU, and even your overclock app won't work.
Also, z4root won't even root/unroot. Crashes every time.
did you reboot after running s1c? I know I always forget to.
I'm curious if anyone who installed the OTA update has successfully rooted their device.
I was on a fully stock unrooted phone when I applied the 4.5.91 OTA update yesterday, wondering if anyone else is in the same scenario and has rooted their device after the new update
Yes, it was fairly simple using the preinstall method in the development thread
Link is in my signature as many people don't know what the "pre-install" method is/was.
I updated using Ken's safe images and used the preinstall method. Worked like a charm. Here you go:

How do you clear superuser app data? Do you mean within the superuser app itself in settings that says clear logs?
I just rooted my Atrix with the preinstall method also. I updated to GB OTA from stock Froyo 2.2.2.

Settings >> Applications >> Manage Applications >> scroll to Superuser >> Clear App Data button
Without doing this I was getting tons of FCs from the Superuser app and had to root again. I read about this fix on the EVO 4G forum.
Also, the Superuser apk included in the preinstall image is not current - after you install go to the Market and you'll find there's a new version. Once it installs run SU and it'll say there's an updated su binary available. Click ok, yes, whatever, give the app root permission, and you'll be updated and rooted.

Thanks, you make my life easier with your explain.
Do you lose data/settings if you use the briefmobile method? (e.g. the old gingerbreak method wipes your internal storage)
Also just to be totally clear : does the briefmobile method works fine with 100% stock unrooted no BL-unlock OTA 2.3? (i.e. did not use any sbf, cwm , nothing pure stock with OTA gingerbread). For example I read the preinstall thread and it seems to be guys talking about flashing sbfs. Then there are a million warnings not to flash sbfs if you've gone OTA gingerbread. So confused
There's just so much info floating around and its quite daunting TBH even for someone like me who's custom ROMmed Samsungs and HTCs before.

No you don't lose any files from the method I've posted about. Also, Gingerbreak didn't have that effect for everyone - I didn't lose anything when I did that on 4183.
And yes, it works on stock Motorola provided Gingerbread. That's what I have.

You can ignore that first command not found and just continue through the rest of the steps. Worked for me.

well I did that
and it said it was successful
and super user is installed
but it's not giving me super user access. It's not popping up and asking me whenever I try to run a root app

Were you rooted before updating?
I was rooted prior to this update and used the preinstall method to gain root again. Apps were not asking for root permissions.
ive never been rooted before. once i do the fastboot reboot and get loaded back up. I try the adb shell command and i get cant find device. What am i doing wrong?
I just uninstalled and reinstalled Superuser from the Market instead of clearing the app data.

I've been messing with my phone for about 2 days now since I've gotten it. I haven't had any issues and have installed a ton of ROM's. However I keep having one issue. Every time I flash an ICS rom I keep getting denied root access. I've tried every ICS ROM available and every one does it to me. None of the gingerbread ROM's have broken it. It installs just fine, but any time I try to do anything that requires superuser permissions they get denied, but if I flash back to a 2.3.x ROM I'll have complete root access.
It doesn't seem to be an issue for anyone else from what I've been reading. I'm permanently rooted with gfree and have the good eMMc chip. Is this just normal with ICS ROM's or is there a fix I am too blind to find? Sorry if this is a dumb question. I've come from the Motorola Triumph from Virgin Mobile that's practically rooted out of the box.
Sounds like your not fully wiping everything. The ics roms had root problems when they updated to 4.0.4 but was fixed and shouldn't have that problem now. Use 4ext recovery if your not already using it. use the "wipe everything but sd" option and try a ROM again.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using Tapatalk
Well I'm not sure if this would help but when you flash an ics rom go to your apps through the settings, find superuser, click force stop then clear the cache...then try opening up terminal emulator and tryping SU and hit enter and press allow.
Hope this works for you, I remember a long time ago it was a problem with one of the miui roms for the mytouch.
Don't forget to hit thanks if it worked

This was actually the first thing I tried. I use 4ext and I have always used the wipe all (but sd card) option. I also didn't use Titanium backup to restore apps or anything like that so I'm not sure what it could be.

After doing this I have the same issue I have every time I've tried to check my root status through the terminal emulator. It always says "Permission Denied" and it won't even bring up the superuser box.
(Superuser is still in my applications though, and when I open it up it has been logging the denied attempts in terminal emulator.
This happened on Ice Cold Insomnia.
Huh, idk what the problem is, maybe try re-rooting the phone with a different method? What method did you use?

Try changing su app to automatically allow su permissions instead of prompt to see if su is even granting access.

The rooting method has absolutely nothing to do with root privileges on custom ROMs flashed through custom recovery.
Actually, the rooting method doesn't even matter. All that matters is S-OFF. And since the OP has S-OFF, no re-rooting will possibly do him any good.
OP, many of ICS ROMs moved to SuperSU instead of Superuser app. Maybe that causes you problems.

So would I just install SuperSU then? I downloaded it but it didn't make a difference.
EDIT: I flashed Zips Creamed Glacier and SU is working fine. I guess I'll just stick with this one. Thank you to everyone for your suggestions.
