FAQ
AFTER ROOTING I SEE ONLY ROOT VALIDATOR BUT NOT THE SUPERSU APPLICATION?

As some people reported there is sometimes problem with the rooting procedure files can't be extracted properly (applications,binaries),
so from today (04.08.2012), in every new update there will be an extra second alternative root zip file recognized with the letter,
"b" in the end of the version number. As always in life we must have a B PLAN.
In this root zip file package it will be only the SuperSu application and the supersu binary, no Busybox, Rootvalidator or anything else.
So if the rooting procedure from above didn't work for you then you should run again in recovery mode,
the 
universal_gb_unroot_v9.zip to delete all the half extracted files from the root procedure previously done.
After that you can apply 
universal_gb_root_v25b.zip known as Root Only.
IMPORTANTIf for some reason after rooting with the universal_gb_root_v25b.zip want to install Busybox
then when you open the application it will give you a location to install busybox to, 
/system/bin
(this is for the reason becouse there is no busybox binary in this root zip file) you just need to simply relocate the installation to 
/system/xbin
(to relocate the path simply press on the text 
/system/bin it will open a new window and change it to /system/xbin) .
This is for a reason becouse in the future you might want to remove busybox and many times happend that it can't be uninstalled properly,
leaving all the applets in bin folder mixing the files with the system files from your Android OS.
Then you need to install root explorer and delete all the applets manualy and trust me is a painful job.
So the problem it will be solved very quickly by installing in 
/system/xbin. if you don't like it to have anymore later just use the procedure for unroot



(READ: HOW CAN I UNROOT MY PHONE?) 
universal_gb_unroot_v9.zip it will delete all the remaining stuff from busy box in /system/xbin and use again the universal_gb_root_v25b.zip to root.


IMPORTANT:
Root and Unroot method is designed to work in recovery mode on Stock ROM's.
CWM Recovery and Custom ROM's are not supported! And never try to unroot your phone when you are using Custom rom!
REMEMBER ALWAYS BEFORE (wipe cache and factory reset) YOU NEED 
TO UNROOT YOUR PHONE FIRST!
