How long does fix permissions take to run in rom manager? Just flashed sky ice 4.2f and someone said to run fix permissions and its said just that for 30 min now.
I have about 50 apps and it takes about 1 minute and a bit.

It just says fixing permissions and I let it set like that for over a hour. I just backed out guess its not working.

thought that method didnt work plus sean specifically states to use rom manager and since its seans rom he should follow seans op.
the problem the op is having is he doesnt have busybox properly installed
I followed the steps, I installed busybox when I was supposed too.

what is rm doing for 30min, what was its last message, open su and clear the apps it has listed, try updating/clear caches of rm, reinstall busybox, if all else fails, read my sig and start over

I've had problems with fix permissions in RM, too. Read somewhere in XDA that it's different in CWM than in RM. I've used a script in Rom Toolbox Pro and it shows the same type of log I see in RM, but goes faster. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't RM's fp just a script anyway?

I had the same problem and it is a busybox problem. Go to the play store and type in busybox and download the one from the dev stericson I think its version 1.21 and install it. When I did that I had no more problems

If you've changed rom's and restored your apps from backups created while running other rom's, often that will screw everything up.
Try fresh installing all your apps from the Google Play store, or try deleting the app data and caches on whatever apps seem to be halting ROM Manager while fixing permissions.
Had the same issue of permission fix hanging forever, but Busybox install seemed to resolve it.
But my intend of fixing the permission was to get rid of the warning message that I get after a reboot:
"System UIDs Inconsistent"
This hasn't dissipated... any ideas?

Do a full wipe and install a fresh custom rom/stock rom... yeah that's a nice help.

You could also search google for 'xda kernel repack'.
Unpack the initramfs, update the su and Superuser.apk, and repack the kernel.
Tada, no more su problems, and when it gets out of date, you can fix it yourself

We have clockworkmod running on the Samsung Galaxy SG4 for some time now, though I don't know if anything like that is available for the Exhibit 4G.
The signature verification error is normal via standard 3E recovery. I know it can be toggled on/off within CWM though I'm not sure if/how with standard recovery.
Got it fixed.
ok. I got it fixed. Here are the steps:
1) Download and install the SuperUser Fixer. Force it to run.
2) Update to the newest SuperUser.
3) In the settings, update the SU binary from there.
Done and fixed.
Thanks.
tried 2 ICS roms - sky 4.0 and nexus mod beta 3 - they both freeze when I reboot/shutdown the phone
Also, for the life of me, root explorer / Super Manager will NOT mount /system as r/w
any ideas? thanks.
Thats a known ICS problem. Reflash until it works, or try seanz sky ics as he claimed to have fixed that.

nah i havent. im trying again (re-flashing) if it doesnt work ill try what you've mentioned.
If it doesnt work after the next flash boot into cwm and factory reset, wipe caches
Yea try wiping the caches like it was stated above, I've read that someone here wiped like 3 times before the phone properly shutdown / restarted without freezing.
For me personally I went from one kernel to another (mohans to romracers) and I have no problems shutting down or rebooting.

Sometimes roms already come with busybox installed. However, they need to be updated/reinstalled in order for fix permissions to work. Usually that does the job. If not, try reflashing the rom and make sure you follow the dev's instructions thoroughly.
If your rom comes with busybox. Go to your apps, there should be a busybox installer app in there. Click on it and click install

By "program" do you mean the app? If not, download the app from the market (Play Store).
Or, just fix permissions in ROM Manager. Works every time for me.
That's the issue I'm having is that rom manager/cwm isn't fixing permissions

It is impossible to fix permissions unless busybox is installed properly.
Yup, needs busybox. Download the app and install it.
PS--When people say cwm on this site they mean cwm recovery, not rom manager. Not everyone uses the term correctly of course, but just thought I'd let ya know.

when i do go into busybox its the free version and it says "BusyBox null is installed" then "Busybox is installed to sh:<stdin>[1]:not found"
then gives me the option to install 1.20.1
so do i need to spend the money to upgrade to busy box pro?

Hello,
I am currently running the REMIcs 4.0.4 ROM and cannot get Poweramp (paid version) to start.
All that happens is the logo will start, and then stops. No error message at all.
I've tried to clear cache's, stop the other music programs and freeze them, and it still won't work.
Also tried the latest version Jellybean 4.1.2 V6 and get the same result, I'm thinking it's either the other music apps
causing conflicts or Poweramp simply doesn't work with ICS or Jellybean.
Does anyone else have this problem? any help is appreciated.
Just want to add that the ROMs run great, and I really appreciate all the hard work Bilgerryan and the other developers have put into this. Thank you!
Ron

I believe CNexus is correct. I've been noticing a lot of people having strange issues that lead back to a Bad DL, or not doing a FULL Wipe before a Flash. Both can be avoided.

I wiped everything three times with both RemICS and Jellybean 4.1.2, but did not check MD5
I will give that a try.
I noticed that the included music app(s) work fine, as well as all my other apps,
No install issues at all. Poweramp shows up in the "running apps" but still will just start for a second and stop.
also, worked fine with NewSense RC2.
I found the following comment in the play store: "please allow interaction with external DSP's again"
I wonder if that could be it?
Well, in any event, it's not a deal breaker for me, still love the ROM.
