Nope, not able to unlock bootloader yet. Only could use safestrap to flash TW rom but not other custom roms.

I've been running CM10.1 on my p3113 for a week or so now, and decided to start trying the NIGHTLY updates... after the latest one, I seem to have lost root.
First off, how do I gain root access again.
Secondly, how do I prevent this from happening?
I apologize if this has already been answered, I've searched around the forum and haven't been able to find much regarding rooting the CM10.1 ROM.
Thank you in advance!!

If u have a custom rom you are rooted. Just cause superuser doesnt show up as an app doesnt mean you dont have root access. I am willing to be that u are in fact rooted. Hope i helped!

You're probably right Root Checker apps say I am NOT rooted but that doesn't always mean a lot... Superuser is having troubles updating my binary now. I'm going to try updating to the latest version.

Try and flash SuperSU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Or try superuser from ClockworkMod http://www.google.com/url?q=http://download.clockworkmod.com/superuser/superuser.zip&sa=D&usg=AFQjCNGkkEFNNdbyuzVedlu9e82Du1g2BA
Just a CM10.1 bug! Root access not properly installed. Damn...
I rooted my Nexus 7 a while back and when I updated the android version I lost my root. It still says my bootloader is unlocked but it isn't. Could someone help me re-root my tablet?
Unlocked bootloader doesn't have anything to do with root. You can have a unlocked bootloader tablet with no root.
Anyway to answer your question, it's fairly easy to root it again. Check this thread. If you find it too complicated, try this one or this
You're welcome, just next time use the SEARCH button. These threads are always on the forums

I need help again, I went through the root process but the SuperSU installation isn't working, it says it failed.
Which method did you use? Can you give more details about the process you took to root your phone?

Search a video on YouTube called "Nexus 7 ROOT - How to Root Nexus 7! (Android 4.4/4.3/4.2.1/4.2.2)"
As you already know my boat loader is already unlocked and all I had to do was install the root app (SuperSU) and recover my tablet. But after I recovered I tried to update and it failed, still no root access.
Do you have 3G version? Here is another guide for you.. I thought you got the newer 2013 edition so the previous links were not that useful

Haha I was going to tell why you gave me the 2013 model links, that's why I went on YouTube instead. Anyways I have the WiFi version.
Found you the best and easiest solution. Try this.
Is rooting the OPO on 4.4.4 05Q the same as rooting it on 4.4.4 44S? thanks a lot guys. I couldn't find any answer on this anywhere else considering this update is fairly new
Yes. It's the same no matter what firmware version you're on.

...and you just need to update SuperSU app in order to maintain 05Q rooted (if previous version was, of course...)
This is odd. I was previously Unlocked, and Rooted, with SuperSU 2.37. After OTA update to 05Q, my Root is gone. No SuperSU app in my installed program list.
Okay, so I go look for the latest, find that it's now at 2.46, download, reboot, flash (no errors), reboot, and i'm back into my phone. But: Still no SuperSU in my apps list, and I'm getting warnings from XPrivacy that it's not running. Does anyone recognize these symptoms? Am I still rooted or not?
thanks guys so can i use any 4.4.4 root toolkit?
i guess you can, unfortunately i'm not skilled in android things but as timmaaa said nothing changed between 44S and 05Q so your toolkit should work if you root your phone for first time. Take a little time to install custom twrp recovery and make a nandroid backup first...just in case of...

Don't use a toolkit, they're bad news. They cause more problems than they're worth, plus they allow you to do things to your device without actually knowing what's going on, which is bypassing some very crucial learning and knowledge.
This phone is very easy to unlock and root. Very easy. Just go to my guide thread here:

Hey guys, I flashed my S2 with this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/rom-cyanogenmod-11-t2686887/
I'm slightly confused as to what to do now to root my phone. Is it already rooted?
First time going above 4.1.2 so I'm a little lost
Thanks for your time

yes, its rooted. custom roms are always rooted.
if you find that it acts like you dont have root, look through the settings for where to turn it on. some times its in developer options.
i dont know why, but not long ago most roms started implementing a root on/off switch in settings. all its really done is start a lot of confusion, and people thinking they dont have root, when they really do.

Thank you! I was unaware of this and flashed my phone 2-3 times with different ROMs but I only like the one I've linked. I was thinking I had to flash superuser or something haha. I've now got root access

Already did that, thanks for your response!
This quote is from the crash root thread, my mini is on SU4.21 screen shot of status below, if I can unlock or get root and bypass the hotspot block unlimited data please provide a link to the thread that explains how to to it, thanks!
_ck_ said:
By the way if it is not clear to newbies, if you are fortunate enough to get a phone with SU4.21 instead of SU6-x, do NOT, I repeat do NOT flash VZW-4.4.4-SU6-7-release-keys.xml
Because then you are taking a valuable phone that can unlock the bootloader and forcing it to upgrade and it can never be downgraded again to SU4 from SU6
ie. the SU6 cannot unlock bootloader at this time, the SU4 can via sunshine
you CAN root the SU4 but it is using a different file than in this thread

This is a screen of my new droid mini, when I run sunshine it passes but tries to temp root and just reboots, never gets past rebooting. Can you link to the info on unlocking SU4.21 you mention please? Thank you

Kingroot did the trick, and I used an app that I have on my moto x to bypass the hotspot block, also froze the ota app so it wont update. All is fine without unlocking it, but when it reboots the root is gone and I need to rerun kingroot, is this the way kingroot works, or should it maintain root through a reboot? Im not sure I like the idea of leaving kingroot on the phone, I will probably unlock it with sunshine and do a factory reset and try rooting it a permanent way, thats something I've never done before, I mean install a custom rom and root that way. Do I need to install a custom rom in order to root permanently? Id rather not do that, but if its the only way than I will attempt it.
Thanks

No if you use sunshine then u can perment root without installing a custom ROM I know on my droid turbo after I installed twrp and ran it the first time it will ask you first thing if you want to root swip yes and it's done permently I assume it's the same way with the mini
