A quick Google search and found this http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/threads/htc-busybox-not-installing.994972/) according to the replies on the thread others got it working. Or search the this Q&A thread.. You should find this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423623

I might be wrong, but being rooted isn't enough. You won't be able to write to the system unless your using s-off or are using a kernel with system protection turned off. Maybe there's a version you can install from the recovery, or manually install the required files from recovery using the built in file manager or "aroma file manager" that can be run from recovery?

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.

Hmm, I wonder if devs will start packaging this in their ROMs instead...

I'd like to report that I've been using it all day with no issues. Anyone else?

I've seen it but never thought of trying it. Might include it in a experimental black ice build
If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

I'm using it right now.
I added it in my Kang instead of superuser.
Everything is working as expected.

Nice. Yeah I haven't had a single issue.
Anything with Black Ice would be great..although I cant imagine it being better! I dont know why, but Ive tried most of the top roms from the dev section, & i absolutely love Black Ice and what it has done in terms of performance! My phone is snappy as it has ever been..

I've tried to run this on my Desire S with Endymion and every time I open it it says...............
"There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"
Any ideas?
Did you uninstall super user app you had before you tried to install super su? I believe someone on the original thread had that happen and that was the problem. Worth a shot

Did you flash the zip (found in the supersu release thread) in recovery, or just install from the market?
Just getting it from the market won't install the binary needed.
The zip also deletes the SU app and binary. Its the best method for installation.

Obviously, you can't uninstall system apps in the usual way. You need to use something like Titanium backup, or use ADB shell.
Ok, so I went into Root Uninstaller and uninstalled the standard Superuser app but I still get the same message, what is really weird is that whenever an app launches that requires superuser access that Supersu screen pops up and everything works as usual.........
Obviously it's working but I still get that same damn message.......

Use root explorer or es file manager to copy /system/xbin/su to system/bin/

I rolled back to my previous backup and installed from the Market as recommended in the Supersu thread and did what you said but it still happens.....
Then I'm out of ideas. I'm sorry.

*** SU not working for Root Explorer ? ***

I'm on 1.85 rooted etc. All my super user apps are working perfectly with the exception of Root Explorer.
Binary is up to date & even uninstalled/reinstalled it but still no go.
Just weird cause like I said all my other root apps are fine. Any ideas ? Thanx

Try switching default access to "grant" in the supersu settings.
Did you update to this SU from within recovery?

From what I understand its a problem with the latest version of SuperSU (0.89), where a few apps will not work unless you set the defualt setting to "Grant" instead of "Prompt" as another described above.
Unless you happen to know that the version you linked works with Root Explorer? If so, please let us know.

Well, someone beat me too it. This is the solution

SU Update failed w/ screenshot

Hello. I'm on ICS official, rooted. I checked su for updates and it said my version was outdated. I tried to update and it just hung. I checked the market as a backup and it didn't prompt me to update but then I saw an "su update fixer."
Installed that and it said no problems so I checked su again and it still indicated I was outdated. Tried the install updated binary and it failed, twice.
Any ideas?

Hmm. You did flash su zip in recovery right? Im Basically in the same situation as far as our firmware goes. Official rooted ics but mine goes fine. Maybe try unimstalling su and re download.

Uninstalling and re-installing su and busybox worked for me when I had a similar issue with my tablet. Also, sometimes TiBu can fix binary issues automatically, so that might be worth a shot.
I'll try tomorrow with the uninstall/install. Thanks for the tips and I'll update sometime in the AM.

I uninstalled and updated both and it's still seeing the same problem only now, when reinstalling Busybox, I'm getting the following error:
It looks like Busybox is installed, but it does not appear to be the version that you selected to have installed. You may want to try the installation again but this time using a different installation location.​
I tried that twice and got the same thing. I don't know if it's something I need to worry about, something I should reinstall to a different location (if so, where?), or something that could be getting in the way of updating SU.
I had the same problem till i installed goo manager and the new recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622917

I suggest downloading the signed update directly from the source: http://androidsu.com/superuser/
You'll want to download this file:
Code:
3.1.3
md5: b3c89f46f014c9df7d23b94d37386b8a
Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
Which you'll find if you scroll further down the page....
Save the zip file onto your sdcard, boot into recovery and flash it from the recovery. This will work.

Thanks! Will post back with results.
Edit: Success. Thank you. Any idea why it wouldn't update on it's own? I don't quite understand all of this enough to figure that out on my own yet.

[Q] Root Access - TrickDroid?

I installed a new rom TrickDroid, and after flashing, and successfully booting up, I could not access certain things that require a rooted phone; so I ran root checker again, and it said I had NO ROOT ACCESS.
I restored my phone to the previous ROM, and all was ok..... wth? I think I had this happen to me when I installed SlimRom, but I was able to find a "Root Access" option in "Developer Options" that allowed me to tick on, root for adb and apps.
I know I'm missing it, and its right in front of me.
Just make a flashable zip of the super user app and binaries and flash it :thumbup:

Sorry, but how do I "make"a superuser zip and binaries? I flashed the same supersu zip that I used during the root process, not sure what you mean regarding binaries. Sorry if this question appears newbish, well I guess I am
