ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost

Hi,

after today's mysql server update with cpanel I updated my mysql root password. Then i found out about the phpmyadmin bug and as instructed (WHM) ran the scripts:

/scripts/updatenow;scripts/fixmysql

however that gave 'access denied' errors, and it mentioned if you see access denied errors to run the scripts above but attach the root mysql pass as argument so I ran

/scripts/updatenow;scripts/fixmysql -p myrootmysqlpass

now I can't login to mysql using shell at all I get Enter password:
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)

Also in cpanel mysql section where it should show all the dbs users etc I get all those same errors like:

ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES) ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)

any suggestions would be welcome .. I've tried resetting the mysql password through WHM but I still get the same errors ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost
