I'm trying to use the Droid Explorer app to browse the file system on my phone without using the command line. However, to fully use the browser, busybox needs to be installed on the phone. I was wondering if anyone else has done this? I understand that the Madaco ROM has this pre-installed, but was wondering if there was a way that install busybox without flashing the ROM. Thanks.
I've heard that busybox can be hard to load (nvr done it myself), that's why I just use a custom ROM to get it. Even though it is not mentioned, busybox is in the latest Fresh ROM as well.

I think I saw it on this forum... or by a google search... but to install busybox, you download it (again, I think I got the binary from this forum) and put it in a folder like /data/busybox (or on MoDaCo it's in /system/xbin) and then you run busybox --install (or something like that) and it creates all the symlinks.
In order to use the functionality, you have to put into your path the folder where busybox is installed (or at least the symlinks). I found it easier to just install MoDaCo's ROM since you get a lot of other cool things like WiFi tether, apps2sd, superuser whitelist, etc.
Please forgive my "or something like that"'s, but I don't have the exact link to reference... I found the answer (like I said, I think on this forum) just by searching.

Two possibilities are -
1: You did not root properly
2: You did not provide root access for ROM Manager via the Superuser .apk (allow button that pops up)
Go to superuse permissions and see what apps. You allowed to use superuser. The ones you allowed well have. A green box. Next to it.
Ones you denied have a red box next to it.

I guess it is possible that I didn't root right.
I followed directions to a T, flashed several different roms, kernals, use wifi tether and shootme with no issues.
I do have green dot in superuser.
Could it be possible that I can't fix permissions because it is a stock rooted rom?
I'm assuming you did the 3 step root process? Chances are you need to run step 3 a couple more times until your device restarts itself. Try it out.

I had this problem with the 3 step root. You can try booting into cwm choose advance and the choose fox permissions from there.
sent from a sweet paper weight.
Are we calling the three step root the one jcase did? I followed his pretty much the same day he posted it.

Go into Superuser and make sure you didn't miss the Allowance of Rom Manager. Tap it in SU and clear it. Then reopen RM again and hit allow when it asks you for permissions.
If you flashed ROM's and have root permissions in all other apps... There's not much else it could be.
All else fails... Clear data and uninstall RM and reinstall it.

Hey guys and gals,
I've got a 7.7 on stock ROM rooted using the original root method the day I purchased the tablet. I've been using my tablet happily for over a month now.
Unfortunately, late last night I opened up Google Play and started updating all my apps, including Busybox by stericson. There was a new busybox version out (1.20.1) and I decided to install it using "Smart install." I'm not sure if it tried to install to /system/bin or /system/xbin but after the install I saw the app give me an error message explaining that the install was unsuccessful. Anyways, now a lot of my root-requiring apps including Titanium Backup Pro is not functioning at all. It seems that my BusyBox installation is corrupt.
I tried using BusyBox Pro by stericson to uninstall but the corrupt busybox seems to have prevented a proper uninstall, so it still lingers. I downloaded JadeEyedWolf's root.zip from his pinned "Root" post which includes SU & BusyBox thinking that installing the root.zip from CWM Recovery would over-write the corrupt busybox. After flashing I rebooted the tablet and I still got the same corrupt busybox issues.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Edit: The corrupt busybox causes the Wifi to show Error when I try to turn on the radio. Not that internet is vital in repairing the tablet, but I've worked around it by tethering Bluetooth internet off of my OG HTC Evo 4G. It's strange though - I can peruse websites and view the items in the Google Play Store but it will never actually download, though the "Downloading --- " bar does display.
I had the same problem, stock rom as well. If you check the reviews for Stericson's Busybox on Google Play, the two top ones a few minutes ago both mentioned the same issue.
Trying to root again and reinstalling Superuser didn't help, neither did a factory reset (manually salvaging settings and data was a pain too).
Re-flashing the original rom fixed it, following the guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1469635
I switched to JRummy16 Busybox installer and it seems to work.
Surprising that no one else here mentioned the problem ...
Try this fix.
To be more specific: BusyBox installer 8.0 replaces /system/bin/sh and /system/bin/ash binaries. I don't have any idea why would it do that (considering that I specified /system/xbin as an install folder), but this quick fix restores original ash binary (and sh as a symlink to it).
Installer 8.1 and above has this bug fixed.
Had the same problem with busybox and had to re-install the rom. What does this fix do?

Thank you so much it works well now! You're a life-saver ginkage. Should I keep the stericson busybox 1.20.1 original install or should I use the busybox installer to install a fresh copy of 1.20.1 in /system/xbin?
Thanks again!

Personally I always use /system/xbin, so that some custom kernel (like CWM) could use /system/bin if it wanted to.
BTW, the BusyBox installer bug was fixed in version 8.1, and current version is 8.2, so you should update it anyway. I was wrong to mention "1.20.1" version. Post edited.
Hi guys,
First of all, I want to apologize sincerely for the bug that my application introduced in 8.0. I didn't catch the bug because my device wasn't affected by the bug.. (I always test my app myself before releasing..yet I still miss things due to devices file structure being so different.)
At any rate, the bug was that the application symlinked all applets to Busybox. Normally, this is done if you use smart install and change the settings manually. By default smart install will not overwrite applets that are not already symlinked to Busybox.
This was not a problem with Busybox 1.20.1 but was a problem with my application and how it performed the install.
Again, I am very very sorry that this has occured, as a result I am scouring the web trying to find people with the issue and help them resolve it.
If you have this problem, it can easily be fixed by reflashing your current rom. you do not have to wipe or clear any data. Once this is done, you can download my installer, version 8.1 or greater and upgrade busybox as normal.
Please let me know if you guys have any questions.
Best Regards,
Stephen - Stericson

I too had the same situation, updated busybox then noticed something was awry when hidebar wouldn't work. My issues go way beyond broken root and WIFI, I've also been getting constant reboots. I was just about to re-install the stock rom until I read about the possible udate.zip fix. I'm very interested in how to apply the zip (I don't have CWM) being that i do extensive customization (with no backup, I know, I know) and I'd hate to re customize everything again. If I can get things right the first thing I'll do is install CWM and perform a nandroid backup.

Thanks for posting this, I'm in love with my 7.7 once again.
Appreciate the response stericson. I had purchased your Pro version but even after I fixed the uninstall failed and it also did not detect superuser permissions even though SU gave a notification that Busybox Pro was granted superuser. All other root-requiring apps work. Had to refund the Pro purchase though
No problem. there seems to be an issue with the application detecting root sometimes, that's why you can still try the install.
I'm looking into this issue, it just started showing up so I am not sure what is going on.

Really appreciate this fix. On the verge of wiping out everything....
But decide to see if its busy box since its the last thing i install before all this happens....
Just to note that uninstall busybox also doesnt solve the issue...
so need to fix.
I had a lot of problems with root permissions not being granted by Superuser app. Recently I have tried SuperSu from the market and uninstalled original Superuser app (important to follow the instructions for the App! ).
My main problem was that ntfssd was not granted root permissions at startup, so I had to start it again manually. With SuperSu it is no problem. Also I use Busybox and successfully updated to the latest binary recently.

Thank you so much for that, I had been driven crazy and had also gone through a factory reset to try and get my device back working, to no avail. Can I ask where you got the ash you're including here? It worked for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus, on 3.2, but is it a generic enough file that it can be dropped on nearly all Android devices without any issues arising?
I only ask out of curiosity and understanding the system more.
I've searched high and low but yet to find the correct answer. I also can't post in the development thread due to the 10 post limit. It is what it is.
The question that remains to be answered is it possible to have Super SU flashed but still not have full root access?
Back-story: I have an EVO 4g LTE that I rooted using regaw_leinad's one click RegawMOD EVO LTE Rooter. Worked like a charm. Due to unforseen circumstances I received a new EVO LTE and, like a dummy, applied the latest OTA. Well, the one click rooter did not work as planned. Got the phone unlocked and that was it. I still needed to flash Super SU, which I did. I thought all was well and good until I tried using build.prop and found out that I did not have root access, or at least couldn't use build.prop to edit. I tried another build.prop editor and it flat out told me I had no root access, yet Titanium Backup says I do.
Any suggestions?
Moved to General Q&A section.
Still no luck
Some one suggested reflashing Super SU. I did, but still have the same issue.
Have you tried just regular super user instead of super su. Idk exactly how the super user really works besides allowing apps root access. Maybe not all apps have a command to signal super su, but have it to signal super user since its kinda top seat between those two.
Just a thought to try. Its in play store
dumbest thing lately.....miui roms
Did you open the APK to see if binaries need to be updated?

Would it be wise to install Super User with SuperSU already installed or do I need uninstall SuperSU first?
Haven't checked the APK.
It wouldn't hurt, but never messed with supersu so I don't know if it'd interfere

We may be on to something here. Used rootchecker and another app to check access. Sure enough, I have complete root access...but...busybox is a different story. Downloading busybox as we speak and will post results afterwards. (May take awhile because the Sprint network at this location is SLOW).

Will this trip Samsung KNOX and what do I do with it
No, root will not trip your KNOX counter. SuperSU will disable KNOX.
Where do I install SuperSu (superuser app)
6/16 - Right now please use the updated SuperSU app posted to @Chainfire website until it is updated to the play store. The play store version will work, you just will not be able to update binaires. Go here http://download.chainfire.eu/447/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip and extrack the .APK and sideload it.
What apps are safe to debloat and how do I remove them?
List will be below. For best removal try titanium backup pro or root explorer. If you haven't bought them by now I suggest you do.

Glad you asked, the answer is Yes. See below for further info
Can I get rid of the SD Card R/W restrictions
Yes - Details Below
How do i get rid of that security update notification?

See below
I will keep this OP updated with valued questions from the community. Please refer to OP
Instructions for Rooting.
First and foremost....A HUGE thanks to @geohot for our current root method. If you have not done so, please donate to him. Also this will only work on the NCG build. You must start form here then you can update to newer builds. Check the forums
- See here for his OP
- Once you have completed the instructions and used Towelroot. Let's get us some SuperSu on it!!
6/16/14 For now please download the following zip located HERE and extract the SuperSU.apk from the "Common" Folder in the ZIP and sideload the app. 6/18/14 Play Store version of SuperSU has bene updated and will update the binariy. Download SuperSU from playstore HERECredit to @Chainfire for SuperSU
- Enable USB Debugging if you have not done so Already in Developer Options. I've heard this helps when installing the binary To enable Developer Options go into Settings > About phone and tap on your build number 7 times.
- Once SuperSU is installed Open it.
- It will state that Samsung KNOX is detected and ask to disable it. The choice is yours, but I let it disable.
- Next you will need to update your binary. The choice are "Normal" or "TWRP/CWM". You MUST choose "Normal" as TWRP and CWM require unlocked bootloaders which we do not have as of now.
- Download Root Checker form the Play Store HERE
- Once you have verified you have root CONGRATS!!
Please keep in mind this only works for Devices with a Kernel Build Date older then 06/03/2014.
UPDATE 8/8/14 - Rooting the NE9 Update
- a step by step Guide for rooting NE9 is available thanks to member @muniz_ri along with other members. I personally have not used it yet but many have. See his OP and thread located HERE
UPDATE 12/9/14 - Rooting the NI2 Update
- Basically it is the same as rooting the NE9 build. For a detailed guide please see this link HERE. Credits to @JTidler for the post.
Instructions for Installing Safestrap Recovery
Until everything is 100% I will just post the link to hashcode's thread for the S5. Please keep in mind that this is ONLY FOR THE VERIZON S5. ATT users, DO NOT, i repeat, DO NOT flash Safestrap. Hashcode illicitly says not to in his thread. If you want up to date info on ATT Safestrap I suggest following Hashcode on twitter.
First and foremost you need to know what exactly safestrap is before proceeding.
Credit to Hashcode
"WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 2.7.1.x (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots (probably only 1 on the S5 due to partition size and internal space) for flashing ROMs. These ROM-slots allow for different sizes of /system, /data and /cache partitions. The defaults *SHOULD* be good enough for flashing the stock-based ROMs.
NOTE: The bigger you make these partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore."

Running List and How-To For Debloating Apps
I personally recommend 2 Apps to remove bloat. I will list instruction for Titanium Backup (TiBu)
1) Titanium Backup I use this 99% of the time. Please buy the PRO version and support great developers.
2) Root Explorer
To uninstall bloat. Open TiBu and select the middle option for "Backup/Restore"
Select the app you wish to remove
Select Un-install!
Poof!! no more bloat app.
Here is a list of apps safe to remove that will not cause you to have to have issues. This is how they appear in TiBuThis list will grow with time. Remember remove them at your own risk

Instructions for getting Xposed Module installed
Please keep in mind this is to be used at your own risk.
Visit the Xposed XDA thread HERE for all you need about installing Xposed Framework.
To install:
Download the latest Xposed APK
Select Framework
Hit Install/Update
Reboot Phone
Once installed I recommend the following Downloads form within Xposed
Wanam (Specific for Touchwiz modifications) Get it through Xposed or Get it HERE. You will get most of the nice UI tweeks you like form your favorite custom roms (Circle Battery, Center Clock, Etc etc)
Enable The downloaded Module:
From the Xposed main page select Modules and check off the one you want to use. (in this case and example i'll use Wanam)
Reboot phone
Open Wanam app make changes through app and reboot for them to take effect.
isnt there already threads for this? also, i think you can b more clear on a few things.. for example when you extract supersu the apk is in the "Common" folder.. i think ppl would get confused by saying "sideload" lol believe it or not ppl will think its sokethin else when really it means install it haha.. other than that nice seein someone post instructions to hopefully not clutter other threads with non sense.

Thats my point, there are a lot. Not trying to step on anyone but im justr trying to gather everything i find that is useful and put it into one thread that is kept up to date.
Great thread. I'm glad to see it all in one place. All of this info was definitely in various posts and threads, but definitely not all in one. Thanks.
On the disabling of the security updates... I'm guessing I just freeze the "Security policy updates SPD_v2_1402_4_1".
Thanks again!!!
Thanks for the info
So when loading/sideloading .apk's to the phone, I would do that through Odin, correct? I get used to being able to do everything through CWM, haven't used Odin since rooting my SIII. Thanks again for the this thread.

no you just put the apk to sdcard in a download folder let's say. navigate to it through a file browser and install. just make sure you have unknown sources checked in your security settings

So when loading/sideloading .apk's to the phone, I would do that through Odin, correct? I get used to being able to do everything through CWM, haven't used Odin since rooting my SIII. Thanks again for the this thread.

No.. lol sideloading means you download an apk and install it.. nothing special required.. thats y told op to b more clear on some of the verbiage since some ppl will get confused.. sideloading is downloading an apk and installing it.. not odin or cwm lmao

I can't seem to find the "unlimited multi view" option in Wanam that the devs suggested to fix the s health issue. Any thoughts?

The SuperSU binary updated fine on my AT&T S5, and I showed how to do the process (outlined in post 2), in my video!

Guy got back to me later on just didnt have a chance to update. Looks like that option fell out in their last update. Prior to us getting root. I suggest using the first post for fixing the lag. I worked for me
