Brief Description:
This application will allow the user to confirm they have proper root (super user) access and proper busybox install.
Advanced Root Check mode will show, Superuser.apk installation and version, adb shell default user mode, standard su binary locations and permissions, along with root uid/gid. Advanced Busybox Check will show all applets the installed Busybox binary supports. Advanced Root Check and Busybox Check have an email feature allowing results to be easily shared/exported. Over 20+ different devices have links to their device specific rooting guides.
Description:
The goal of this application is to provide even the newest Android user with a simple method to check for root access on their phone. This is a very simple application to notify the user whether or not they have properly setup root access and whether or not they have properly installed busybox. For advanced users, this application will provide many more details giving the user greater control and knowledge of their root and busybox installation.
Gaining root access varies based on manufacturer, model, and carrier. Please refer to device specific posts and boards here on XDA or use http://www.google.com to search for the appropriate support areas for your specific rooting needs. Feel free to email me with root guides which have worked!

Pretty neat.
The Busybox checker doesn't work for me though. I launch Titanium Backup, click Problems, it downloads everything and then says Busybox installed. Then I launch Root Checker and it says it's not installed (for Root, it says yes).

Titanium Backup installs a local copy of busybox ONLY for Titanium backup to use. It does not install a systemwide busybox, which is the proper way to install it. It would be very hard to look for every specific application's locally installed version of busybox as they are hidden from other apps by default and root access must be obtained to even find them.
Thanks for the feedback. It is a good confirmation to what I had suspected regarding Titantium backup.
Glad to hear root check verifies root correctly!
Released new Version 1.6:
** Added Advanced mode for experienced users
** Added toggle for advanced mode under Options Menu

Ahh, I didn't know that it got installed ONLY for Titanium Backup. That makes sense.
How do you install BusyBox for all applications? (I've never actually installed it for any reason other than from within Titanium Backup.)

Either use a custom rom, they all generally install busybox correctly, or search the market for BusyBox, an app by Stephen (Stericson), a senior moderator here on XDA, which should install it correctly.
Hope that helps and appreciate your support in using my app!

With this tool, you can completely backup your device without root or unlocked bootloader.
I have tested it so far only with my Galaxy Nexus, but it should also work with other devices running Android 4.0+.
So you can unlock your bootloader without losing your data.
With version 1.1, not all parts of the program will be downloaded, only the necessary.
The most tools in the "Tools" section are for the Galaxy Nexus, but more devices will follow soon.
Now the final release of v2 is out!
The UI is complete, it's much easier to use.

Well...tried this on my GF's Droid Razr Maxx but all it did was display the adb.exe help text and then re-start. Does this util require an ADB connection? Or maybe anything else? I'm thinking some more info would be helpful...
Great idea, though -- I really hope it works.

The compiler has built crap.
And yes, it requires a ADB connection

A simple gift for this wonderful promising tool...
Since this uses ADB, if adb.exe is not found, it would not give any error/information to the user, of what is happening. It will just exit to the menu. Thus, I have added some ADB detection in the script here. http://pastebin.com/mFXJ3w36
PS: If @Gigadroid would put this up on github, more expansion and contribution is expected.
hai Gigadroid,
can u explain more about each option? coz i a little bit confuse about option 3,4 and 5.
if i need to backup game apps and data saved, which one should i choice ?
sorry for my English.
TQ
UI for your tool
Where can I contribute a simple Windows WinForms based UI for your tool? I am envisioning a save folder for backups, a file selection for restore. Backup name with date and time in file name if so desired, custom file name, ADB existense check, all garnished with explanative messages and an interminent progress bar so as to not block the UI while performing backup or restore.
BTW I just tried it on my SGS2 a day I after I rooted it for backups and it work fine
Now if I could only see how in ADB a package list can be retrieved with friendly names (Don't tell me... let me learn alone)
Does it work with<strikethrough> ICS 4.0.3(galaxy S2)</strikethrough> or even Gingerbread 2.3.6 (Galaxy Y) ?

Option 3 is for backup device and app data.
That means when you restore you have only the system apps on your device.
The data of your apps is still present.
If you've done a mission in Dead trigger and install the app again, you're where you left off.
Option 4 is for backup your apps without data.
When you restore you aren't where you left off.
Option 5 is for backup music, pics, etc. hat are saved on your device
I would say you should choose 3 and 4, but with 1 you can do nothing wrong

This is a modified version of debugfs that installs SuperSU instead of SuperUser. The only other way I was aware of that would install SuperSU without having to install SuperUser first, was Chainfire's method using a CWM zip and flashing. You use this version of debugfs just as you would normally from here . There are a few changes, but if you have used debugfs before, you will have no trouble.
THIS MODIFIED DEBUGFS IS 100% STABLE/UPDATED SCRIPT 10/09/2012!!!

* Chainfire, for the SU files/binaries and Supersu
* Noxious Ninja, for making Debugfs work w/the SGS3
I am a Flash-O-Holic and I love my rooted devices. I really like to use SuperUser for some devices, BUT for some devices I would rather use SuperSU. They are both great APPS.
But, if you are extremely anal like I am, you like things to be as clean as possible. And even if you root your device and install SuperUser so that you can install SuperSU afterwards, you still have to go back and uninstall SuperUser (if you want to). I am sure there is nothing left behind, but I like everything to be fresh.

I did not like having to install SuperUser and then afterward insstall SuperSU and then delete SuperUser, etc, etc. So, I came up with this method using the Debugfs script and Chainfire's SuperSU.

I give all credits to Noxious Ninja for getting this to work wth the Samsung Galaxy S III for Verizon.
I simply changed a little of the script and swapped out the binaries and APK.[/FONT]

Noxious Ninja was the one who modified it to work with the Samsung Galaxy S III.
I used/modified his script. I found out it was okay to modify this tool as long as the PROPER CREDITS were given.
I also used some of Chainfire's files obviously for SuperSU.

In a lot of the root scripts, it requires the phone to be wiped and cache deleted or cleared.
I wanted to know if this was the case, so I can run multiple backups (since titan backup wont work until rooted)
Can anyone mirror the download to another site?? wont let me d/l from the OP site
they both downloaded fine for me

but its enable...

I just tested it on my other SGS3 which was running a stock ROM and had not been rooted. I have been installing apps and using it as my personal phone for about a week. I ran the modified debugfs and it rooted my phone perfectly. Just make sure you read the instructions when you run debugfs.
Make sure you have "Uknown Sources" checked off in Security Settings and that you also have enabled "USB Debugging" in Developer Options.

Okay. I just took the OTA update just so that I could test this. I sucessfully rooted my phone with SuperSU!!!
But, just in case:
I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU MESS UP/BRICK YOUR PHONE WHILE TRYING TO ROOT YOUR PHONE WITH THIS MODDED DEBUGFS.
Yes. It just worked on MY phone, but you never know what could happen.
For some reason, my bootloader did not relock (many are saying that their bootloader gets re-locked).
I already have my phone rooted using the original method with SuperUser I would rather use SuperSu can I just use this or would it be easier and safer to just install SuperSu and delete SuperUser?
So this is still going to work on both phones with and without the OTA, right?

Hey brother.
Both ways seem fine. If it was me (because I am a weird) I would start over from scratch and root with SuperSU.
Or, leave SuperUser on your system and run this tool. Then after it is done running, you won't have to give SuperSU permission through SuperUser to update it's binary, because it will have already installed it with DebugFS. Then you can uninstall SuperUser.
(I.E. You know how when you normally have SuperUser on root66/other ROMS/etc. and you have to install SuperSU and then give it permissions from SuperUser to update it's binary, and then uninstall SuperUser, etc, etc? If you just run this tool, you won't have to go through that whole process)
So are you on the OTA right now?
Please post back and tell us how everything turned out!!!
UnBloatMi - Xiaomi MIUI Bloatware Remover
I have been searching for a script to remove Bloatware from my Xiaomi Mi5s, and found a couple of different ones that do part of the job.
None were exactly what I was looking for, so I wrote a script of my own.
Although I tested the script on my MI5s only, it should be very usable for any Xiaomi device running MIUI 7 or 8.
In UnBloatMi I have combined multiple lists of MIUI 7 and 8 apps that should be safe to remove.
It also contains a couple that are less safe to remove, but the script will ask for confirmation before removing those.
Which is a big difference from other scripts; you get to choose what to remove and what to restore!
Backup location:
If you edit the script, you can change the backup location to use (by default "/sdcard/UnBloatMi")
You can of course also add more apps to remove to the list in the script. (instructions are in the comments)
It's not needed to remove files from the list, as it will not process files that are not on your device, and you can choose not to remove any app.
To Customize the Script:
Unzip the zip and edit the file under: META-INF\com\google\android\update-binary
This script is written in shell language (sh), so editing is somewhat different from "normal" EDIFY scripts that use the "updater-script" file.
I used part of the excellent template by osm0sis to create UnBloatMi
Install Custom Apps/Files:
You can also have the script install Custom files to /system folder. (So you can add another HomeLauncher, for example)
To have the script install Custom files, just add them to the Zip in "/system/app/" folder:
/system/app/YourCustomApp1/YourCustomApp1.apk
/system/app/YourCustomApp2/YourCustomApp2.apk
The script will automatically install them for you.
To use the Script:
You need to have TWRP Recovery installed.
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE BEFORE RUNNING THIS SCRIPT!!! (I recommend using TWRP Backup)
(even though the script allows you to restore your changes, something can always go wrong - press wrong button for example)
- Move the ZIP file to your SDCard, and install using TWRP Recovery
Basically, you can just follow the instructions on the screen, by pressing Volume buttons.
- The first run, you'll be asked what apps to remove. Backups are automatically made.
You can confirm each app, or choose to only confirm the more risky apps.
- If you run the script again (after testing your installation), it will detect the backups from the previous run.
You can then choose to restore the backup files, or delete them from your device.
- You can now also create a default UnBloat list, that can be used to UnBloat after flashing a (new) ROM.
It is created by checking for installed apps. If an app is not found on the device, it's added to the list.

}
Feel free to edit and change the script.
If you make any improvements, please let me know so I can add them to the script.
This includes reporting what apps caused problems when removed, or comments about apps.
You can find the script in: /META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary (or on GitHub by clicking the "Source Code" link below)
Instructions can be found in the comments of that file.
--UPDATE--
Added Step by Step Restore: You can now choose which apps to restore, so it is easier to troubleshoot your installation.
--UPDATE v0.2--
Added warning to SecurityCenter App (so it has to be confirmed). It caused bootloop on my device when removed.
--UPDATE v0.3--
Bugfixes, Added Apps, changed and added some app comments. Changed download link (GitHub download creates a folder too many)
--UPDATE v0.4--
Changed/Added menu's - Allows you to do more actions at once
Added apps and comments.
Added ability to save a default UnBloat list. This can be used to UnBloat after flashing a ROM.

Did the install reach the menu at all?
Can you look at the log file to investigate? (TWRP --> Advanced --> Copy Log --> Open log file from your SDCard)

Thanks for your bug-report and logfile!
It says it couldn't find the script, and after investigating I found the download link to GitHub creates a folder too many inside the zip.
I was hoping to have the available download automatically give the latest version...
I guess I'll have to create a release after every update, and update the link accordingly...
I adjusted the download link in the original post.
this is great! i made my own debloater script, but your is so much more elegant! i hope things dont change much when we update to 8.2....

I have just released version 0.4, which allows us to create a default UnBloat list.
This can be used to UnBloat again after flashing a new ROM.
(I'm hoping to use this in combination with OTA updates. I'll write a howto if I manage to get this all to work)
Thanks, i try it...
EDIT: i have removed many apps on my rn3se (kate), wipe davilcache but i've a bootloop :?
Good restore option
Hey @Zappo, did you already get the update to 8.2? Will you be updating the script for the new miui?

If you have found the app causing your bootloop, please let me know. I'll add it to the risky apps list.
I use the "restore one by one" option, and try to find the problem-app that way...

Hi.
Big thanks for your hard work. At this moment i have personalized your list but i think that velvet.apk is a possible problem
This "# The file number doesn't have to be in order, but should be unique." is no true otherwise the script does not work well (es.: items 0-1-3-4)
samurri said:

You are both correct and wrong; they don't have to be in order, but do have to be ascending without interruptions (can't have missing numbers)
Ex: items 0-1-3-5-4-2 is OK.
I didn't think it would be a problem, as items don't have to be removed...
I will review your list, and add a comment to velvet.apk when I have the time. (however it didn't cause any problem on my Mi5s)
Ok, thanks.
Do you know where can i find mi apps description?

Yes, it should work for all MIUI 7&8 devices.
If software in the script is not found on your device, it will be automatically skipped.

I agree this kind of got lost in the code...
New software is only installed when removing bloatware the first time (or when no backups are found).
It should be automatically installed when choosing "Remove/Restore bloatware" from the first menu.
However when a backup is present on the device (folder "UnBloatMi" by default), this is skipped...
I did this, presuming new software is installed after the first run, and if a backup is already created it doesn't have to be installed again.
Hey @Zappo , found this project for redmi note 2, and it's so heavily debloated, i haven't seen anything like it. Maybe you can look over it and add a few more things to debloat? I tried to recreate it but I don't know which qualcomm apps are essential to our phone, i had only bootloops... Anyway here's the link https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/development/best-sot-t3434915
Edit: i can provide you with a list of all the contents of the rom, i extracted the system partition.
KingoRoot is annoying. No landscape support and battery lock screen cause my device to freeze. Support took 6 months to reply. I finally found a way to manually replace Replace KingoRoot with SuperSU without a script.
Before you get started, make sure you backup everything. I'm not responsible for any damages in your device.
Tip: You can use root without Kingouser but your device will be in high risk as any apps can grant permissions without your permission. I'd strongly recommended you to follow these steps for SuperSU replacement... or just keep Kingouser
What you need?
- CPU-Z app
- X-plore file manager app or other root explorer apps
- SuperSU flashable zip
- SuperSU app from playstore
Let's get started
Step by step:
EASY WAY - AUTOMATIC SWITCHING:
There is an easy way to switch to SuperSU but the change is low. Please go to page 2 or 3 for more infomation.
1. Delete/Uninstall Kingouser, but keep Kingoroot. DON'T reboot your device
3. Install SuperSU apk from flashable zip v2.79
4. Launch it, press "continue" and "normal" wait until the update is successful.
5. Reboot and uninstall Kingoroot
Thanks MarshisnotMellow for this trick
If this automatic switching fails, try manual switching
COMPLICATED WAY - MANUAL SWITCHING:
This might sounds complicated but I prefer doing it manually than executing a script in Terminal.
1. This is very IMPORTANT: Check your Kernel Architecture of your device using CPU-Z app. I bricked my device by placing wrong binaries for armv6 on a armv7 device by a mistake
In my example, my Kernel Architecture is armv7 so i'm gonna extract armv7 folder later
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Download SuperSU V2.79: https://download.chainfire.eu/1016/SuperSU
Do NOT use v2.82 since it no longer have ability to reinstall binaries (SU binary occupied error), and it have "Android is starting" bug. See this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77303017&postcount=84
In the zip, there are 9 folders. I will list the folder below
META-INF = Signature and script for custom recovery
common = required files for SuperSU/rooting. init scripts are not needed
arm = arm11 / armv6. Devices like HTC Wildfire, Wildfire S, Galaxy Y etc
arm64 = armv8 / armv8l / arm 64-bit. Sony Xperia M5 etc.
armv7 = armv7l. For all popular devices, you know, Samsung S3 mini, HTC, Sony, LG, etc
mips = Unknown. Don't know which device is using mips
mips64 = Unknown. Don't know which device is using mips64
x64 = Unknown. Don't know which device is using x64
x86 = Any Intel CPU. Asus Zenfone, Bluestacks, Android emulator etc.
3. Open X-plore, open confuguraion and enable root access as Superuser + mount writable
4. Extract <Your architecture> and common folder in your device
5. Navigate to extracted folder on left pane and navigate to /system on right pane
6. Now we gonna replace and delete some files in the ROM very carefully! Do the following:
Tip: Press and hold on the file and select permission to change the permission
Skip step 6.1 if you already have SuperSU app installed
6.1. Install SuperSU as system app
Android 4.4.x and below: Copy: /common/Superuser.apk => /system/app
Android 4.4.x and below: Change permission to 644 (-rw-r--r--)
Android 5.0.x and above: Create a folder named "Superuser" or whatever
Android 5.0.x and above: Change permission to 755 (drwxrwxr-x)
Android 5.0.x and above: Copy: /common/Superuser.apk => /system/app/Superuser
Android 5.0.x and above: Change permission to 644 (-rw-r--r--)
6.2. Replace: /common/install-recovery.sh => /system/etc
6.3. Delete: /system/etc/install_recovery.sh
6.4. Replace: /<Your architecture>/libsupol.so => /system/lib
6.5. Rename "su" to "daemonsu"
6.6. Replace: /<Your architecture>/daemonsu => /system/xbin
6.7. Replace: /<Your architecture>/supolicy => /system/xbin
6.8. Delete: /system/app/kingouser.apk and uninstall it from Settings -> App (if it was installed as user app)
After you replace any files, make sure the new file still has the same permissions as the old file. X-plore does this automatically, that's why X-plore is the best file manager. Root Browser doesn't, and you will lost root or get bootloop after reboot. But, you can re-root with KingoRoot and do it again.
There is no need to replace "su" binaries since they are write protected, but SuperSU can replace them once you update it in STEP 8
7. That's all. Reboot your device
8. SuperSU will appear on app drawer. Open it and it will ask you to update the binary. Press "continue" and "normal". The update should be successful.
9. Reboot your device one more time
Now you have a working SuperSU. Enjoy
Tested devices
https://www.dropbox.com/s/q6t8puao1q5746v/Kingoroot to SuperSU tested devices.xlsx?dl=0
Most ARMv7 devices are tested and working. If you have a device with ARM64/v8 or x86, i need you to tell me the system files that Kingoroot have modified so i can find out which files to replace. PM me for more info
Regarding "Android is starting" bug
This is SuperSU 2.82 bug. Upgrade to SuperSU 2.82 r5 or downgrade to SuperSU 2.79 + binaries and use re-signed APK to block update from Playstore
SuperSU 2.82 r5 beta:

Thanks Op for this thread.
I personally use super su but some devices make it hard to so I have to use king root(cough-lenovo-cough)
This is a good idea to do what you have told over flashing the zip as sometimes that can be complicated.
Can't wait to get home and try it out.
Will surely get back to you with device names

Kingouser or Kinguser?
Work perfectly with my experia e4 dual.
Im just write cat /proc/cpuinfo in terminal for check my kernel architecture. ?
Sent from my E2115 using XDA Forums Pro.
My Kernel Architecture is armv8I. Which one should I select in zip file because there is no armv8I?
Won't this work instead?
Install SuperSU (I used SuperSU Pro) from the play store and grant it superuser access. When prompted, install updated su binary with the normal mode. Once installed successfully, uninstall Kingoroot and Superuser app. Reboot.
That's what I did on an android 6.0 headunit I have and seems to work. But maybe there is a benefit of avoiding kingoroot completely?

I wish, but I'm using an android mtcd px5 head unit and no one has a custom recovery for it..
I was really just suggesting as an option to try as it worked for me and less complicated.. But guess it's only this device that allowed it..
{DEPRECATED}
This project won't release a new version because I see no reason for that since modified lib v.2.3 is working fine on OP5/5T without breaking OOS functionality.
Hi guys,
After intensive try. I’ll glad to tell you that I just found the way to fix GCam Front facing camera portrait mode without using Magisk module. (which break Face Unlock functionality in OOS)
Instead, my method will dynamic change library only when needs to use GCam and you can revert to default binary, then you still can use Face Unlock.
THIS MOD WAS TESTED WITH OXYGEN OS OREO ONLY
Warning:
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, your phone won’t boot. Use it at your own risk
Prerequisite:
1. Root with Magisk (My app/script only test with Magisk)
2. Busybox NDK (Magisk Module)
3. My file.
4. Disable all lib fix module. (prevent confliction)
5. Recommended Gcam APK: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/
How to:
Ver 3.5.1
1. Download my file here View attachment FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.1.zip and don't move to another folder. (should be in Download folder or XDA folder)
2. Install this app from the archive (FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.zip)
3. Allow storage permission of my app. Long Press the app and choose App info > Permission > Storage > Enable it.

4. Open the app and tab Read me/Tutorial button and read it first.
5. Tab Create required file button.
6. Wait until it shows toast about "Required file has been created"
7. Auto-Mode is Fix binary and automatic revert after screen off. (It'll ask for root permission)
8. Manual Fix and Revert is for a user who wants to trigger it by their design time. (It'll ask for root permission)
9. Pick GCam dialog will show after you fix binary (either Auto-Mode or Manual) PS. Only supported for Pixel2Mod and Pixel3Mod by Arnova8G2
10. If you think this mod helps your life better and it worth for some donation. Please help donate
Troubleshooting.
1. If you get "Archive not found" when tab Create required file >>> Download My file first.
2. If you get "You don't have a required file" >>> Tab Create required file button.
3. If you get "Busybox not found" >> Install it.
4. If Create required file doesn't say anything to you. (report by some users).
You need to create a folder name "FixGCam-by-aillez" in internal storage and extract file from archive to there. (As a workaround) Folder structure should be like this.
and you should not tab Create required file.
5. After I fix binary Gcam still don't work/Capture Pink image. What should I do?
Sometimes Gcam already running before change library and load default binary. Fc Gcam and try again will help.
Updated: Should be fixed in V.3.5.1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------default-----------------------------------------------------
Code:
Tutorial + Demo for V.3.0
[media=youtube]aelumI-U7AM[/media]
Ver. 3.0
1. Download My file here [ATTACH]4503243._xfImport[/ATTACH]
2. Extract it to your root of internal storage (/storage/emulated/0) [U][B]otherwise my script won’t work.[/B][/U]
3. Looking for App folder you will find 2 APK. Install it.
4. When you need to use GCam.[B] [U]Launch 01_FixBinary_by_aillez app[/U][/B]. Give it root permission and wait for it to say "GCam Binary is Fixed"
5. If GCam still take Pink image. Force close GCam and try again.
6. When you done using GCam. [B][U]Launch 02_02_RevertBinary_by_aillez app. [/U][/B] Give it root permission and and wait for it to say "Reverted to Stock Binary Completed".
7. Enjoy using Face Unlock, OOS Cam all functionality.
That’s it. Enjoy

Hey! It works amazingly well....
So, I was thinking about triggering the revert task to exiting Gcam rather than screen off. The only problem is that it detects exiting Gcam if you go view your photos from within the camera app. I can't figure out how to make it work. Anyone with more Tasker knowledge know how to make this work... I.e. tie the fix to launching the app, then get it to revert on closing the app? I know there are downsides either way really.
Working great! Thanks ?

I use Nova launcher and I've set it so that if I swipe over the Gcam icon, it launches the Tasker fix. I modified the Tasker fix to launch the app after it successfully patches. So to run Gcam I swipe. To use it again before I turn off the screen I just tap the icon.
in my case the camera app doesn't take any picture in portrait mode with the front camera
No errors when the task is execute and works well the restore for the face unlock...but I can't take the photo
OB3 + Arnova's v6_beta15
EDIT: It's necessary to enabled hdr+ front camera
Thank you very much man I really prefer face unlock over fingerprint and I often use my camera (thank God we have gcam to replace stock camera) and it was a pain to have to reboot to get either gcam or face unlock.
It's working for me on OB3 with arnova Cam and other version of gcam.
Good to see it's working for you
I'll try to write a script to run without needs of Tasker since not everyone using Tasker.
But I can't give you ETA.

How about using Tasker App Factory to create an app of your profile which can be used by everyone.
