[Q] Not prompted for superuser ?? - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On 4.1.1 completely stock. I used OTA Root Keeper to retain root successfully.
TiBu and Root Explorer were already running as root and still get root access.
Any new apps never prompt for superuser authority??
Root Checker Pro says I'm rooted,
OTA Root Keeper says:
x Superuser app installed
x Device rooted
Root permission granted
x /system supports root protection
x Protected su copy available
I tried to install SuperSU but that also failed, it doesn't
prompt for superuser rights so it can't write the su
binary.
I'm confused, what changed? how do I fix it?

I can't go into details now but your su binary is the problem. Do not uninstall anything that still has root as you will lose it. I can go into more details when I get to the office later this morning.

Thanks, I do have root access from adb I should be able to push a new binary
then set its perms, from adb shell.
Where would I find the binary I need?
I was using Superuser.apk and its binary.
Shouldn't OTA rootkeeper have saved a copy?
it says I have root, and it has copy somewhere.

I had exactly the same problem when I first upgraded from ICS to JB. Thought I had root until I decided to try AdAway. I uninstalled AdFree and attempted to install AdAway. The install failed stating that I did not have root. Of course I did since AdFree worked, ES File Explorer worked, Terminal Emulator worked, etc. Searched and searched and found discussion which highlighted the su binary to be the issue. Attempted to use the app to update the binary and it failed. I believe (and watch how fast I get corrected!) that the implementation of multiuser support in android is what requires the new versions of superuser and the binary. I documented the permissions of the existing su in /system/bin/ and ensured that I did not have another in /system/xbin/. Using ES File Explorer I copied and pasted on top of the existing su in /system/bin, checking to ensure permissions were good. You should then be able to download the latest and greatest binary using the app. This was all done with superuser. I have not worked with SuperSU. I crossed my fingers and restarted the tablet. I was good to go and have full root.
Please note that others have come back and stated that it did not work for them. I can tell you what worked for me and why I believe it did. I will add the link to the post discussing this problem as soon as I find it again.
Check out this thread which worked using adb.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183105

[Solved] that seems to have worked
downloaded updated su binary
adb pushed to /sdcard
adb shell
Code:
/system/bin/su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/su /system/su.bak
cat /sdcard/su > /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
exit
adb reboot

I posted my Root Checker Pro Analysis.
I followed the other threads and don't understand what I'm supposed to learn from them.
Please direct me relative to my posted Analysis. If I can't figure it out after that, I guess I'm stuck.
I appreciate the help.
In THIS thread that I linked you to it gives you the answer. I would suggest you post your query in the thread linked for further assistance.
