Either its not installed or installed incorrectly.
How did you root? And how did you install busybox?

Toss it my way. Correct none of the unlock apps will work for the I727, I've tried many. Your IMEI is still in the database, It is just AT&T not wanting to give it to you. Your best bet would be to use one of the MANY online sources. There are several that offer unlocking for under $10.00 others that offer for around $30.oo ish. Find one in your budget that will work for your time constraints and go with them.
As far as busy box, you have a few options from the market that will quickly and easily install it for you.

Don't know anything about the unlock apps, but are you installing busybox through the market and THEN opening the app and installing it through the app? If not, the app is worthless.

sim unlock the captivate with froyo 2.2 (KB1)
I have tried it on a captivate with Froyo.UCKB1 (2.2), and it works. (Old stuffs in this forum are for 2.1. )
http://www.androidgalaxy.net/how-to-unlock-a-samsung-galaxy-s-from-stock-android-2-2-froyo/
"I was able to successfully unlock using one of them: Galaxy_S Unlock by Helroz. This app offers 2 methods. The first method is now outdated, as it works similar to the Eclair scripts. The second method replaces a file in a folder called EFS. This is a protected folder. however, so in order to run the app, you require root."
For a Captivate with froyo (KB1) rom,
1.unroot using SuperOneClickv1.6.5-ShortFuse.
2.install "Galaxy_S Unlock by Helroz", (it will install busybox for you) and run:
backup EFS files -- step 1.
sim unlock -- step 2.
3. wait until it reboot.
Now your captivate is sim unlocked.
Galaxy S unlock worked great for me on my Rogers Captivate running Mosiac VI gingerbread.

Hi,
I have eclair android with ATT OS on captivate. Its rooted but when I try to intall from sdcard it says blocked (like only allowed from market). I did not find the option like unknown source allowed in the menus so am unable to install.
On top of it the wifi connectivity to adhoc,open hot spot on my laptop is not working for captivate.
so I am stuck like cannot install from android market and nor from sdcard.
any alternative (I need to unlock sim so cannot do 3g).
Regards,

Hey, appreciate the video.
I'm on a stock rooted rom, but when trying to open the build prop in text editor as you did, a pop up message appears saying "Warning: You cannot edit this file because the file system is read-only."
At the top of root explorer you shoold see a button that says "mount r/w" . Tap that button and problem solved

I would just leave it. I dont see why you wouldn't , I mean the build prop that you changed it to is the sprint galaxy s 3, so the only difference is that there are less blocked apps

You need a custom recovery to flash the files so you must unlock first. [Assuming you're on Verizon] Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mmmeff.ez.unlock and click unlock. You're now unlocked. To install a custom recovery, download GooManager or Rom Manager and allow the app to install the custom recovery of your choice (TWRP or Clockworkmod). Then you're set to install Google Wallet.
I still can't manage to add a card to the wallet

IF YOU TAKE AN OTA AFTER DOING THIS AND VERIZON/SAMSUNG DECIDE TO UPDATE BOOTLOADER
IT COULD BRICK YOUR PHONE
THANKS TO ADAM OUTLER FOR HIS DISCOVERY ON HOW TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
I DID NOT COME UP WITH THIS, JUST A WAY FOR NOOBS LIKE ME TO DO IT ON WINDOWS EASILY!
*** MUST BE ROOTED
*** MUST HAVE USB DRIVERS FOR SGS III INSTALLED
*** VERIZON ONLY !!!!
MD5
Code:
aboot.img 0BA9AD45FC15CF3D62AF7DD363686B3F
stockboot.img 149B318C76A3EEFD495FCFA98BCDAF28
NOTES:
1. No responsibility taken for bricks. sorry.
2. This is confirmed working on my device and many others
3. Restore method taken away.
4. The bootloader used in unlock is from adam outlers method
5. How do you know it worked ? Samsung splash screen is blazing fast when unlocked and phone boots faster
opposite when locked, right now thats the only way besides actually trying to flash something like a kernel.
Download zip here
HOW TO UNLOCK:
**** IF YOU HAVE ANY PROGRAMS THAT SYNC WITH YOUR PHONE THEY NEED TO BE UNINSTALLED OR NOT RUNNING BECAUSE THEY CAN CAUSE BRICKS, Pdanet, easytether, droid explorer, kies, etc., etc., on down the line. I repeat if you have a program on your computer that syncs with your phone, it is NOT COOL TO HAVE THAT RUNNING! ****
1. menu > settings > develop options > (unplug phone) > usb debugging > ok > (plug in phone)
[USB DEBUGGING HAS TO BE CHECKED !]
2. If you are not rooted, get rooted first !
3. download the zip and extract somewhere you will be able to find it
4. pick option 1 and your done
I removed the restore to stock, because it was causing problems, however if you want to restore your backup that the program makes simply run this from command line
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd if=/sdcard/bootloader_backup.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5"
or in terminal emulator
Code:
su -c "dd if=/sdcard/bootloader_backup.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5"
IMPORTANT NOTES: YOU CAN NOW RESTORE BOOTLOADER COMING FROM ANY OTHER METHOD [/SIZE]

I did, when i first ran the app something called superuser was asking for permission and i didn't grant access. And i ran it again, and this time granted access, and this time it said congratulations this device has root access. I guess it means it's rooted. How do I unroot it.?
Unrooting would be super foolish. If you wanna unroot, get an apple device.

First find out if its ICS or gingerbread ROM. Than look around the blaze dev. Pg., and read-up on the great ROMs available. Follow instructions to the T when installing whatever you choose and make sure you create a backup in cwm FIRST. Happy flashing
Flashing another ROM will fix the touchwiz thing, you don't need it unless you really want it.

I uninstalled superuser app and now it shows that I don't have root access. I fixed the thouchwhiz problem by just using the go launcher app. Now the only problem is that I want some of my tmobile apps back like mobitv and Polaris office. Is the only way to get them back just by getting them from the play store?
Two choices: get it from the play store (if available) or follow the instructions chjema posted. It flashes the original build and will get everything back as if purchased new.
Hey there,
Have you tried getting your MSL using apps from Google Play? It will no longer work. Why? As of Android 4.3 the MSL is no longer stored in your build.prop ro.ril.MSL. So the apps that use the command getprop ril.MSL will no longer work.
The solution? download the SPC/MSL Reader from flash-it-now.
