BusyBox Update failed

I'm having an odd problem, and I'm not sure what to do about it.
This morning when I woke up, I noticed that there was a BusyBox update in my notification bar. Upon trying to update it failed.
So, I uninstall BusyBox, and try to reinstall it, but I'm met with a message that I don't have root access. Upon checking with Root Checker, I DO have root access. But, now all of a sudden, my wifi is not working, when it has worked flawlessly up to this point.
I'm not sure what to do. I don't have a nandroid backup to roll back to, and I need my wifi to work. Would doing a factory reset and flashing a new ROM solve this problem?

What ROM are you on...Gingerbread or ICS?
you must be on a custom rom or you on stock, rooted?

ok need to go into CWM and flash these files, should correct it, I had this issue on a ROM dont recall which one or it might of been on a rooted stock....
but before you do anything.....
download these files and put them on your sd card of the phone, NOT THE EXT memory card, you are gonna flash them like you would a ROM ok, in cwm, you can flash them back to back while you are in CWM...kk
download this file first and flash this file first: FLASH ME FIRST
download this file second and flash it second: FLASH ME SECOND

Didn't seem to work. Still can't install BusyBox. I'm not sure what kinda bearing that has on my wifi, my wifi just stopped working when the BusyBox update failed this morning.

check the MIUI thread...

I think MIUI occasionally loses recovery. Possible kernel issue.
Read through the thread to see if you can get some additional info.
I'm not sure if it has any bearing on your wifi..possible.
If you know how, you can try extracting the kernel from MIUI rom and reflashing just the kernel using SGS kernel flasher to retain your data.

I definitely don't know how to do that haha. I'm a noob when it comes to this whole game, although I'm slowly learning.
Do you think doing a factory reset, wiping everything, and then flashing a new ROM might fix my issue? I did want to try out one of the new ICS ROMs, so if that will fix my problem I might as well go ahead and try one of them out.

Flashing Uniporn seemed to have fixed my issue. I first re-flashed MIUI and that didn't solve anything, so I guess the issue was with MIUI? Just odd that the wifi would drop out after using it flawlessly for 4 months.
Oh well, got something new to play with again. Thanks for the help guys!

[Q] Dialer FC

Tried different ROMs & kernels, tried wiping everything and re-flashing, tried flashing the latest RUU(including firmware), changed recovery, did everything I can, the dialer still FCs when I try to make a call.
Driving me crazy.
I used different recoveries as well. TWRP & CWM & Stock after RUU flash.
I do remember using CWM recovery though, but it is the official one.

Well, I don't think a kernel could have anything to do with it. I think you need to backup your ROM. Then go into recovery and wipe system. Then flash the stock AT&T rooted ROM with nothing else, then try.

i've tried everything like mentioned in the original post.... EVEN RUU
BUT AOKP roms works fine.

I'm started having the same problem this morning on every single sense ROM that I tried. I finally had to flash CM because I needed to call someone. RUU, wiping everything, different radios and different recoveries, nothing worked.

Have you checked HTC for a bug update? I know they have had these problems in the past. Might not hurt to check.

This sounds a heck of a lot like the issue that cropped up with the old hacked (unofficial) version of CWM, way back last summer. It seemed that going from CM to CleanROM using CWM was the root cause (although I don't think the exact cause was ever discovered), and the oddest thing is that flashing different ROMs and even RUU didn't solve the issue. It was pretty much the event that got most of us to swear off the unofficial CWM, until it finally went official this month.
I think (but this is digging deep in my memory banks) some folks were able to resolve the dialer FC issue by going back to a known good CWM nandroid, then I think going to TWRP after that, and flashing a new ROM. But you might use the search function to find the specifics.
Might be something different going on here. But the persistent dialer FC (even after RUU) combined with CWM and CM10 is looking a bit suspicious.

Should I flash CWM again? Because last time for some reason CWM Touch(official) stopped working for no reason(cannot get into recovery, screen flashes and reboots) so I flashed TWRP again, and I think that's when the problem began to show.

I don't think it was ever properly discussed whether whatever caused this bug in ythe "old" hacked CWM was resolved (or not an issue) with the "official" CWM. Not trying to knock CWM, and those that worked hard on it. Its just been a lingering question in my mind since it went official. But I'm also a skeptic by nature.

I installed the latest CWM and flashed the rooted att 3.18 rom the dialer now works now. I don't know if there is a bug that once you use CWM, you can't use TWRP. It seems very odd though.

Recovery buggy date/time

Had anybody seen a situation where the recovery won't keep the correct date and time? I've flashed TWRP 2.7.1.0, 2.8.0.1, and the latest Philz, and all of them kept changing the time, the timezone, and the date... and they were acting a little buggy in their responsiveness.
Thoughts?

I've experienced the same issue since I got my S5. KT TWRP 2.8.1.0 doesn't have that problem. It also fixes the backup to extSD problem, if you were experiencing that.

THANKS! I had KT's downloaded but didn't flash it yet... I certainly will now. And yes, the extSD issue bit me, too.

Nope... date is 1/1/2014 and the time is 3 hours lagging for the timezone.
Let's hope at the very least my nandroid backups won't disappear.

Try this: Using something like Root Explorer, look for the TWRP folder on your internal SD card. There's a file called ".twrps". It's the config file for TWRP. Delete it and then boot back into TWRP. You'll have to redo your setting (timezone, screen timeout etc.). See if that fixes it. If that doesn't do it, not sure what else will.

I had tried peeking into the file with Notepad++ but nothing jumped out at me. Now I feel silly for not trying what you suggested.
I deleted it and it had no effect. The one I deleted and the one it created had the wrong date/time stamps on them... as did the two backups I created (both in metadata and filename convention).
On the bright side... my two backups are as yet undeleted.

Very strange, I was sure that was it. My date/time have been correct since using it. The only other thing I may have done was using KT Kernel as well, but I don't think that was it. If you decide to try KT Kernel and want to go back to stock kernel, here's a link for stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54632862&postcount=1702

I didn't flash the KT Kernel because the post said it needed to be flashed onto a TouchWiz based ROM... and right now I have PacMan (AOKP). I had MOAR (NE5) installed for a bit but I'm not used to stock. Truthfully, MOAR had everything I could want... I may just have to get over my snootiness.

Oh, it's coming back to me... with MOAR I was getting a lot of error popups of processes stopping running. i think "acore" was a common one. I could have troubleshot but didn't.

Make sure your backup works and come on over I'm a big supporter of MOAR! Do a clean install though and I bet 99.9% of your problems will be solved

There's the main install 2.1, and the new stuff 1.7, and of course Gapps. Do folks typically flash them all together... Or separately sequentially?
My clean install is usually wiping cache, dalvik, data, and system.

Tried installing Xposed, now phone won't boot.

EDIT: Mounted system as R/W and i'm now restoring my stock unrooted backup of the system. But My "System Image" backup gives me ERROR=2?
So I had the xposed disabler zip on my SD, I had a system image backup from before I rooted, a full normal backup as well.
It wouldn't boot after I flashed the Xposed Zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
I flashed the one for SDK21-arm64.
I was like okay, and flashed the disabler, it said no backup of something made so no way to restore.
I sighed and tried restoring the system image, error, I tried restoring the full normal backup, mounted read only can't restore?
What should I do?
I have TWRP installed so I can boot into bootloader and recovery, not sure how to fix this.

Found out how to mount the system as read/write. Trying to restore again.

"Process ended with ERROR=2"

Mounted system as R/W and i'm now restoring my stock unrooted backup of the system. But My "System Image" backup gives me ERROR=2?

Yep. It doesn't work. Basically I just booted twrp, installed the uninstall zip and wiped cache to fix.
I think there's a version 22 that also didn't work. It gave an error trying to install. Here's the thread if you want to try it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979

Xposed Framework for Alcatel Idol 3
Was there any error when installing xposed? Did anyone do an adb logcat on bootup to a text file to catch the error? Did anyone report the issue to the Xposed for Lollipop thread? (not sure why you'd be looking in the xposed for 5.1 thread since we are still on 5.0.2 but I found no sign of the words "alcatel" or "idol" in either thread. They can't fix it if they don't know about it.

As mentioned multiple times by me and others...no one should be going to the unoffical xposed for android 5.1 thread...if it was gonna work it would be the offical "android for lollipop thread (5.0)". Of course if no one reports the errors then it will never get fixed. Oh well...will re-evaluate it in a few months.

Hopefully this will work soon, I miss Xposed. There was a guy that posted a logcat from his Idol in the Xposed 5.0 thread, but I don't seen any responses to him.

Ill give it a shot ill post results later im busy now going to have my coffee now
Edit: i flashed the xposed arm64 version rebooted and i got stuck in the white alcatel logo that says smart move i left it alone for a few minutes and nothing so i flashed the uninstaller and went back to normal not sure if i need to wipe the dalvik after i install the xposed hmmm might retry again

So I flashed xposed-v69-sdk21-arm64.zip, wiped Dalvik & Cache, and it still hung at boot, I did get an adb logcat on boot for it, and I have attached that in the Xposed thread. Hopefully it will help us get this resolved. I was able to revert back with the uninstaller.

Ringtones,notification,music and some gallery albums are missing

Hey guys, I'm having a problem here.two days ago I had a problem with my play store which would not open, so I thought of flashing my ROM and gapps again in hopes of getting the problem solved. I wiped my cache partitions along with my system partition and flashed it, everything went well, play store started working again but this time I got a couple of different problems. My ringtones and notification tones are missing, when I click on the options for changing them there's just one option (none). My music player can't read any music files, even though I have many of them. And gallery has some albums missing. I was on cm12.1 and I flashed to liquid smooth v4.1 in hopes of fixing the problem. But the problem still persists, what should I do to fix it. Please help me on this one.

The playstore problem for sure.
Maybe you can consider updating your bootloader and modem to the latest version if that does not help.

Well i flashed it all again with the gapps package you told me. The problem still persists. Upgrading the bootloader and modem...how do i do that ? Im new in all this rooting and flashing.and yeah i read some forums on this issue and i read that restoring an old nandroid backup might solve the problem. What do you say, should i try doing that?? And yeah one more thing, do you think that some how a rom can slow up the cellular data speed?? Cuz i think after installing liquidsmooth my data is kinda slow even on lte.

Hmm i don't know that for sure,i only knoe that on some rom's my wifi works better or worse
About your problem : i never had this kind of problems,i had a google play problem once,but after reinstalling gapps it was gone,although im on the latest bootloader and modem : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347759102
I can't find my guide for flashing it so i can explain a bit :
-Download odin 3.09 on your computer
-unzip modem.zip
-shut down your phone and pull the battery out
- in odin untick auto reboot
- put the battery back in and go straight to download mode ( home,power and vol up i think,if not that vol down ^^ )
- in odin put the modem file in the 'cp' slot or what so called ( it should be cp but better look it up )
-Start flashing and wait untill it's finished ( green button lights up )
-Then reboot your phone and under phone info it should be allright.

Yes it is. Resurrection Remix,Blisspop,CM12 by temasek,euphoria os,AICP and liqiudsmooth are all aosp,in the threads of the rom there usually is an indicator of that the rom is like. Touchwiz roms for examble are often more than 1gb files where aosp are only 200-300mb. But the battery on touchwiz for me often is a ton better.

Ok...well i figured out that the cellular speed issue isdue to the Carrier server problems.so flashing the modem is not necessary i guess? My current baseband version is N9005XXUGNG1. And just out of curiosity, say i flashed the arter kernel and later on for some reason i want to change the rom like i go to cm12.1. The kernel version will change automatically right?

Yes it will. Apparently you have a kitkat modem and bootloader but that SHOULDN'T cause problems,although it can. I can't tell i am flashing newest bootloader and modem every time one comes out.
