Just in case anyone is having issues with the new version giving permissions try rebooting your phone.

I've been using 3.0 beta4 for a while now. I'm happy its finally gone official. No more su thinking my binary is outdated!

Buy elite if you can. Support this guy!

^Same here. I paid for it way back when it didnt even show up on my phone!

Ok, downloaded the new version, and it says that my SU binary is out of date, as expected. However, even after a reboot, when I try to update the binary, it fails every time at the "copying su to /system" step.
How can I fix this?

That's odd. Mine dl and installed fine. This is the 1st time I haven't got the outdated message while using 3.0
