Hello, I have been trying to get the modded market from lcd density modder pro of which i just bought. it says i have busybox missing when i have installed it from zergrush's zip in the sticky above. in busybox installer and in busybox from the play store, it says i have 1.20.2 installed. however, when trying to install from either app, it always says busybox install failed. same goes for uninstall.
i am currently on m0d's unnamed rom with instigatorx's kernal. i have also tried skyics with cymbaline but have ended up with the same result. i do not think it could be an issue with busybox because it smart install says everything is syslinked.
any help is appreciated. thanks
okay i found the fix to the modded gapps issue by downloading paranoids modded gapps. but as to the busybox issue i still have no clue. when i was on 1.19.4 i couldn't even update it to 1.20.2 through either app. that's when i had to flash the zip
Try this file from CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=912376&d=1329804462
I installed the zip, busybox says i have 1.19 installed. however when i hit install to update to 1.20.2 or 20.1 it installs, but on reboot it reverts back to 1.19.4
1.19.4 should be enough to everything I'm using it and everything is working great.
LCD modder pro will soft brick you. Trust me. Use rom toolbox. Or simply edit build.prop

He's not using lcd modder to change dpi, it looks like he was using it for the play store fix. It is highly recommended for that feature alone.

stay FAR FAR away from that app. XDA search "persistent LCD MOD" or something like that and follow the steps I regurgitated from Eyeballer's Touchpad MOD. It works, I've been using it even since on the SR. You end up moving a "local.prop" file to /Data and your DPI survives nightlies. As for the Play Store, the modded dpi apps are easy to find.

So I know I have read how to fix this but noe I can't seem to be able to fix it. I am running the Weapon rom and I downloaded a black modded version of swype. I deleted the stock version and the .lib that went with it. I then installed the new version and it still asked me if I wanted to replace the other version...so I said yes. And it works...until I reboot and then I get process swype force close. Any ideas hoe to fix this? Thanks.

Use Titanium Backup to uninstall swype then install from apk.
Might fix it. Couldn't hurt to try a permission fix either.
Sent from my Nexus Prime using XDA Ultimate App
Thanks. I got it working. For some reason I thought by deleting the .apk that would uninstall it. So I used root installer and them reinstalled it. And poof...works...

Try T-Swipe Pro from the Market. It blows Swype away.
Hello,
How can I get SwypeBeta (better + Dragon) in Stock Skyrocket? I followed the page steps and then I get: "Swype Beta is currently unavailable for devices that have Swype preinstalled" message.
https://beta.swype.com/android/get/:confused:
I don't believe there's a way for you to do that. If you were to root, you could uninstall it with titanium backup, restart your phone and then install it using the swype installer.

There is a really easy way to install the swype beta.
1) Use Titanium backup to uninstall swype
2) REBOOT
3) install "swype installer"
4) install swype beta
Voila
Our you could try jb's Swype themes so you can have an ics themed keyboard. There are others to choose from as well.

I personally used an app called NoBloat it has a picture of a android wielding like a ak but it pretty much allows you to uninstall an app completely (SWYPE) but it backs it up just incase you removed something you werent suppose too. I used it removed swype (deleted the backup) and installed beta.

Of course he can. If he's stock rooted, he can remove swype with Titanium.
I do it that way every time I flash a new Rom

Hi,
I'm currently an Atrix 4G user and expecting my new shiny Skyrocket to arrive soon. I had swype preinstalled on it and managed to find a way to remove the preinstalled swype using another method. I found it on the swype forum, and this is what I did. Keep in mind, you have to be rooted in order to do this. Also, make sure that in your settings, you've disabled/turned-off swype as a keyboard input and make sure it's NOT the one selected (make sure to select another input), otherwise after reboot you may get stuck.
Using Root explorer or adb shell as root:
1) remove /system/app/Swype.apk OR rename to /system/app/Swype.apk.bak
2) remove /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so OR rename to /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so.bak
3) Reboot device
4) Install swype installer and the rest should work!
Can anyone confirm if this will work on the Skyrocket?

So, I'm a proud owner of a Stock rooted Samsung Skyrocket 2.3.6. I followed my own instructions, and was able to download swype installer and install swype. I then went into settings->languages and checked the swype entry, but when I click on settings it FCs.
I tried resetting - nuthin. Any thoughts?
I have the /system/app/Swype.apk and /system/lib/libSwypecore.so files backed up.....
So, I found this and going to give it a shot:

UPDATE: This totally worked! Whoop!

The new Swype Beta (June 2012) allows it to be installed alongside preinstalled versions of Swype. If you've followed the steps in the post above, then first remember to uninstall your old version of swype completely, then reboot your system, and then undo the steps listed in the post. You should have a fully functional preinstalled version of swype with the swype beta installed alongside it.
I'm really sorry if this is a repost but I searched for a while and never found a solution.
When I fix permissions in rom manager it hangs around 100. Tried 3 or 4 different ics rooms now and all do the same thing.

Seeing as how you've pretty much eliminated it being a specific ROM. I would try uninstalling rom manager. Reinstall. Then flash touch CWM again. idk that's what I would try.
Flashed cwm and reinstalled rom manager still hung up

Agreed you need to make sure busy box is installed

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

Thanks all. It solved my issue here too.
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.

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.
I think I'll go suggest that to anybody having any problems in their Android phones.
It probably fixes their problem 9/10 times.

Running CM 10.2.1 stable on P5113,CWM recovery 6.0.1.2.. Tab is smooth as butter, everything works everytime, fast and reliable.
Whenever I check SU # I get that message, "binary needs updating " but when I try it fails.
Should I use, "Superuser binary fixer" in Play store?

Are we talking about Superuser or SuperSU? Because if it's Superuser, then I have no idea, if it's SuperSU, then yes, there's a zip file that you can flash that will clear that up. It's in the Omni op I believe.
