If I root and after I do it says that I don't have superuser access, do I need to unroot and try again. I used the ioroot method. The day before though I took the ota update. So from what I've read if you do so you can't get superuser access with this method. Also I will search for a way but could someone point me in the right direction to root properly.
Thanks

There is no working root after the oat installed at this time as far as I know so stay away from rooting and avoid soft brick.

I use my tablet mainly for netflix, fb, games and microsoft word but one day I tried opening Trickster Mod and it said i didnt have root. It was so weird because I did root my tablet but it just disappeared. I was wondering if I should start from the beginning or if theres a way to get my root back?

Download root checker from the play store and verify if it has root.

no need to start at the beginning, you should be able to just root it the same way you did before after unlocking your boatloader

I checked and I no longer have root. Does this mean I lost my ROM too?and kernel?

If you lost your ROM... You would be staring at the Google logo. To root, open up your superuser app (or download from play store) and update su binary from the app. If that doesn't work, you can grab a flashable zip of SuperSU.

If your bootloader and tablet is already unlocked then rerooting should be a breeze. Just use whichever toolkit you previously unlocked it with and get that root back in it. Then install busybox from playstore and check SuperSu the app to see if your permissions are okay.

thanks.. any suggestions on how to re root? perhaps an easy method

Just flash recovery and then download the supersu zip. Flash the supersu and you are rooted

I used CWM to install the original zip. It prompted me before rebooting if I want to keep root/recovery and to fix it.
I used this thread to reroot using adb...

I used the Nexus 4 1.3 toolkit with updated files
As a precaution I backed up my folders and make a Titanium backup. Technically re-rooting will not WIPE phone like it did first time I purchased it.
I could have installed CWM but prefer to keep this phone stock, considering its as pure as it will ever be and want the OTA updates.
But there are so many options to get ROOT lots of options. Love it so far.
You can use cwm for flashing the ota to avoid the hassle of using adb sideload. You can choose stock recovery after flashing the su zip. Just use the cwm to flash ota and su. Just my 2 cents

I just paid the £1.95 for Su Pro, which keeps root over OTA updates. Worth the money IMHO, I have wasted more time that that in faffing around each time.
Just rooting it like you did first time will work.

Just root again, OTA will make your phone rooted again!!!
Wow. Thanks everyone. I am gonna try a few these. I had no idea su pro kept root. Only had i known
I learn.
After you reroot, get OTA Root Keeper from the Play Store so you can restore root in the future after an OTA
ok... so i figured out an easy way... i used nexus toolkit to root in the first place and then saw this on wug's website... followed the direction and got root back... Thanks everyone for your help
also, its not clear below, but these files are replaced on your computer under C:\Program Files\WugFresh Development\data
"Yes, I am aware that this isn’t working on 4.2.2 right now. This will be fixed in v1.6.3 which will be released ASAP (within a few days or sooner if possible). As a temporary fix you can replace the old adb/fastboot/dll files in the toolkits /data directory with the new ones: new_adb_and_fastboot.zip just download that zip and extract/unzip its contents into the toolkits /data directory and agree to overwrite those files, then proceed to use “Any Build” mode to perform subsequent operations like rooting. Again, this is just a temporary fix for those who are impatient."
I'm trying to root the Verizon RAZR M via the motofail2go method but it isn't working. The bat file installed superuser as a system app but I do not have root. Does anyone know of any alternative method to get this thing rooted? I just want to be able to use all my favorite apps on this thing.

I just followed the video here

I rooted my phone or at least I thought I did, but when I try to use flashing it says I don't have superuser access. I have successfully rooted a galaxy we and a HTC one xl, so I don't consider myself a noob. I guess I am to this device though. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
