Terminal su permissions?

How do I get Terminal Emulator root access?
You have to have the superuser apk. When you type su into the terminal a window will popup and you just have to accept the root access.

[Resolved] [Q] Help needed rooting G Pro! T_T

*Since this problem can happen to other LG devices, I'm writing here.
-Summarized Question for Busy XDAers-
1.Installed su binary and busybox through Android System Recovery 3e.
2.Can get root access from LG Recovery mode, half access on ordinary boot+adb shell, Permission denied on terminal emulator app. SuperSu not working, and 'root' is granting permission every 5 minutes.
3.HELP PLEASE!
-Full Question-
Maybe it can be a real noobish question, but I need help rooting my G Pro.
LG started Kitkat update a week ago, and G Pro also got Kitkat update.
I tried to root my device using old methods, and new methods for other G devices, but none of them worked.
So! I tried making one for me, using Android System Recovery 3e(maybe it could be a problem?)
I booted my device to recovery using
Code:
'adb reboot recovery'
and sideloaded zip file containing su binary and busybox.
Of course I signed it with testkey, so I could get SuperSu, su binary, and busybox installed on my system.
But, after rebooting my device, I felt something went wrong.
I typed
Code:
'su'
command on terminal enulator, and got
Code:
'Permission Denied'
error.
Assuming it's related to permission and owner of su binary, I tried
Code:
ls -al /system/bin/su
.
Here's the result:
Code:
[email protected]:/ $ su
Permission denied
1|[email protected]:/ $ ls -al /system/bin/su
-rwsr-sr-x root root 85096 2008-08-01 21:00 su
It seems...nothing's wrong!
So I tried with adb, and got # without asking Superuser app.
But I couldn't mount system, as well as other commands require root access.
I removed SuperSu and downloaded Superuser by ChainsDD, but that didn't work.
Instead, I could see on log that 'root' was granting permission every 5 minutes.
Not knowing what the problem is, I rebooted device to LG recovery(diffrent from Android Recovery 3e).
I could access adb from there, and got root access and removed some garbage apps.
Then, it means su binary and busybox is working.
What is the problem??? Please help!
EDIT:It was binary version problem lol

[Q] Android Pattern Unlock - adb shell su: permission denied

I was trying to unlock my android phone by adb installed. I tried to followed these steps:
adb devices
