[TOOL][BIN]BusyBox Recovery Flashable Zips **ALL-ARCHS**

Update 14-Jul/18: Busybox v1.29.0 released (Complete changelog: here)
Hello XDA,
All the flashable zips include two builds.
SELinux Enabled and Normal
This post will give you a pretty good idea about the difference.
There are 401 applets included in the normal and 413 applets included in the selinux build.
Here's a list for the same.
NOTE: Installing busybox does not modify your device's selinux status.
Architectures supported: arm, arm64, x86, x86_64, mipsel, mips64el and mipseb.
The attached zips install busybox in one of /magisk/bbxyds, [/data/adb]/su/xbin, /system/xbin, [/system]/vendor/bin after cleaning older busybox binaries and their symlinks from the device (if any).
Universal busybox installer flashable zip detects the architecture and installs busybox accordingly.
Code for mounting the su.img and running in embedded mode is borrowed from the SuperSU project.​
SELinux status is automatically detected by the installers.
Behaviour of all the installers as well as the cleaner can be manipulated using a bbx.conf file which should be placed in one of /sdcard, /data or /cache. For more details refer to the second post.
TWRP recovery or Flashfire is recommended for flashing the attached installers, however the code is pretty generic and should work on other recoveries too.
Projects using my BusyBox builds are:
Open Gapps
Apps2SD
Project Skynet
StØck ROM Sense 5 by @denkem
Stock Debloated roms for nexus 5, 6, 5x and 6p by @tupac4u
Inlightning Org
Universal SafetyNet Fix by @Deic
If you would like to include my builds in your project, a link to this thread in the project thread would be expected.
Also, if you can, pm me about it so I can add the name to this list.

Disclaimer: Neither me nor anyone else at XDA is responsible for what happens to your device. Please use the tools/utilites attached at your own discretion.
Having said that, I'll try my best to help you with any bugs or exceptions you might face.​
Download: Click here
Mirror: Sourceforge​
Busybox-CLEANER.zip and all the installers clean BusyBox in /su/xbin /data/adb/su/xbin /system/xbin /system/vendor/bin /vendor/bin /data/adb/su/bin /system/bin /su/bin /magisk/phh/bin /su/xbin_bind /data/adb/su/xbin_bind and /magisk/bbxyds
The installers will automatically detect 32/64 bit arch and install the appropriate binary
NOTE: If FlashFire gets stuck on a black screen or errors out when flashing, please flash from recovery instead. (There seems to be a /system mounting issue on some devices in FlashFire)
File list:
Busybox-<VERSION>-YDS-UNIVERSAL.zip
Flashable zip compatible with all architectures.
Busybox-<VERSION>-YDS-<ARCHITECTURE>.zip
Architecture specific flashable zip files.
Busybox-<VERSION>-YDS-<ARCHITECTURE>.tgz
Consists of pre-compiled busybox binaries.
Not flashable
Busybox-installer-<ARCHITECTURE>.bin
Executable files for installing busybox without rebooting in recovery mode. See 2nd post for more details.
Not flashable
Source code (zip, tar.gz)
Source code files automatically generated via Github releases.
Not flashable
For older versions refer to my androidfilehost, drive, mediafire or sourceforge folders.
Toolchains used for building these binaries can be found here (host arch -> x86_64).
For official busybox source and changelog refer here.
Do report how these work out for you, as most of the testing has been done on emulators.
You can request any applet in this thread. If it does not affect the size of the whole binary or there are enough users backing it, I'll add it in the next release.
When reporting please attach the BusyBox-YDS-installer.log, it should be in either /sdcard, /data or /cache.
Source:
https://github.com/yashdsaraf/busybox
https://sourceforge.net/p/busybox-yds/code

Op
bbx.conf:
Allowed options in bbx.conf are,
installdir=<path>
Change the directory for installing busybox to <path>. If <path> is not a valid directory, then the installer will fall back to the default installation directory.
Note: Any older busybox installation in the supplied directory will be cleaned.
Warning: Please use this option only if you are absolutely sure about what you are doing.
e.g installdir=/data/local/xbin
​
selinux=[0|1]
Controls the selinux support in busybox.
E.g To disable SELinux support
Code:
selinux=0
To enable SELinux support
Code:
selinux=1
​
noclean
If supplied, the installers will skip cleaning any previous busybox installations.​Sample:
To install busybox in /data/local/xbin without cleaning previous busybox installations with SELinux support enabled, following would be a valid bbx.conf file
Code:
installdir=/data/local/xbin
noclean
selinux=1
Note: Busybox cleaner only reads the installdir option and cleans busybox in that directory
Self extracting executables:
All the .bin files in the download link in the above post are self extracting executables. They can install busybox directly from a terminal without rebooting in recovery.
Usage:
Install any terminal app.
Get root privileges,
Code:
su
E.g if you have the installer for ARM downloaded in sdcard, run this
in the terminal,
Code:
sh /sdcard/Busybox-installer-arm.bin
And watch the magic happen.
Options:
-h | --help
Show help message.​ -i | --interactive
Run script in interactive mode.​-nc | --noclean
Do not clean previous busybox installation(s) (IF ANY).​-oc | --onlyclean
Clean previous busybox installation(s) (IF ANY) and exit.​ If supplied, all other options are ignored except installdir.​--selinux=[es|o]
Enable or disable selinux support in busybox.​--installdir=<path>
Install busybox in <path>.​Tip: To clean busybox in a custom directory, run the installer in onlyclean mode and set installdir to the custom directory which needs to be cleaned.
e.g. to clean busybox in /data/local/xbin run the installer as
Code:
sh <script_name> -oc --installdir=/data/local/xbin

@YashdSaraf

is the issue mentioned here addressed? @YashdSaraf, hope you read my pm.

@YashdSaraf had a quick question. I have been using your busybox zips since you've staying building and i first want to say thank you. My question is when i use the busybox unistaller zip or busybox cleaner with your zip it says that it removes 0 symlinks and when i use stericson busybox zip it says that I'm removing 3xx plus symlinks. I was just wondering wondering why his and osmosis show that binaries were symlinked and yours showed that 0 were? I want to lastly say though that your zip worked and busybox was installed and worked correctly. I like some of the extra binaries yours offers do just a curious question thanks.

I did not update the uninstaller after systemless root was introduced so it must be looking only in the /system partition for busybox. I'll upload the updated uninstaller today.
Thanks for your support.

Yes the one attached in the OP is the latest one. It will clean busybox in /system/bin, /system/xbin, /su/bin, /su/xbin.
So yeah it can be used in 'any setup'.:good:

@YashdSaraf
thanks for your busybox.
I had some problems to install it (I tried arm/arm64/all zip file withS elinux).
Every time the installation end with error "Wrong architecture".
My build propri content about cpu is
# ro.product.cpu.abi and ro.product.cpu.abi2 are obsolete,
# use ro.product.cpu.abilist instead.
ro.product.cpu.abi=arm64-v8a
ro.product.cpu.abilist=arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a,armeabi
ro.product.cpu.abilist32=armeabi-v7a,armeabi
ro.product.cpu.abilist64=arm64-v8a
To install I had to use previous zip file (1.24.1) where you not have archictecture check and replace 1.24.1. busybox with busybox extracted by 1.24.2 zip.
Where can i get the error log of your script? It show just only /data...
Please check your script.
Thanks.

@YashdSaraf Could you update busybox to 1.24.2?

@exodius48
All busybox files in first post are version 1.24.2.
@YashdSaraf
Please add a note in first post about the vesrion of busybox.

Sorry for asked it. I couldn't find busybox version on 1st post, also on the tittle.

@exodius48
In the first post there are various Download links with all busybox for all platforms.

OK... the BusyBox app on the play store had an update to 1.24.2.
When I install the update from 1.24.1 to 1.24.2, it states that it installed successfully, it doesn't reflect it.
It still shows that 1.24.1 is installed.
I tried wiping the dalvik cache before and after as well as reinstalling the app and it still reflects 1.24.1.
Also, it displays that 1.24.2 will be installed in the system xbin but, doesn't.
Thank you.

Hey,
I think the reason for failure was that the script could not detect the /data partition.
Please try these zips instead.
arm arm64
There should be a BusyBox-YDS-installer.log in either /sdcard, /data or /cache, whichever your device supports.
Do attach it when reporting back.:good:

I'm not sure what are you talking about. I'm not related whatsoever to any play store busybox installer apps. Try one of the installers from the op to install 1.24.2 busybox.

[MODULE] Detach3 - Detach Market Links

Detach3
Introduction
This Magisk module is for detaching apps from the Google Play Store.
It removes your defined packages from the 'Manage apps and device" section and disables them from auto-updates.
Installation
Flash module in Magisk Manager only.
Not necessary to reboot after flashing this module.
This module is designed to flash as many times as you like.
It is configured with a *configuration file. You can create one before flashing this module to define your package(s) or the default one will be used instead, which detaches YouTube by default.
Add your package name(s) you would like to detach to the configuration file, with each package name on a new line.
You can add more package names to your configuration file or the default one at any time, then simply just flash module again to apply it. Again, no need to reboot or any other user interaction needed.
Read the log that Magisk Manager displays when flashing the module, it displays the detached package(s) for confirmation.
*Configuration file: /storage/emulated/0/Android/detach.cfg

Frequenly Asked Questions
Spoiler: Click to expand
Q. Can I use the old detach.txt?
A. No, I decided to ditch it. It now uses a new method explained in the installation section.
Q. Where is the boot script installed?
A. No boot script is needed for detaching, everything is done while flashing the module.
Q. Does this break safetynet?
A. No, it doesn't conflict with safetynet at all.
Q. Why shouldn't I re-enable Play Protect?
A. It will interfere with the module's purpose.
Q. Will having Play Protect disabled, open me up to vulnerabilities?
A. No, the playstore scans their market apk's after developers upload them.
Q. I usually install after-market apks (modified ones) and I think play protects me from this?
A. You should scan your unknown apk with Total Virus.
Q. How do you find a package name?
A. Magisk Manager lists your apps with the package name underneath each one, in the Magisk Hide list.
Q. What Magisk version is needed?
A. The module template is designed for Magisk v20.4+
Q. Do I need to uninstall previous version before updating?
A. No, unless stated. Just flash updated version.
Q. Do auto-updates still work for all my other apps that aren't detached?
A. Yes, auto-update and other notifications etc still work.

Detach Market Links for Theme Ready Apps *
Introduction
This Mod is for detaching apps from the Google Play Store that are included in the Theme Ready Apps zip and/or aroma installer from Team Black Out for CMTE and Substratum theme engines.
*Now also includes majority of all themed apps by Team Black Out by using an optional txt file.
The purpose is that updates will not show in your update list and also in update notifications from the Google Play Store.
This allows you to auto-update or the ability to use the update all button without the worry of updating Theme Ready Apps which will break your themes for those apps updated.
The Google apps that are detached if you're not using the optional txt file are Gmail, Google App, Google Plus, Hangouts, YouTube and Gboard (Google Keyboard).
Installation
Flash Mod in recovery, no need to wipe anything but if using SuperSU systemless mode or Magisk, flash this mod afterwards.
No need to flash again in-between ROM updates if using SuperSU systemless mode or Magisk or if your ROM supports addon.d scripts.
To detach more themed apps, place the detach.txt file either on root of your sdcard or internal storage and remove the comment from the apps you wish to detach and then flash Detach.zip
You can also use the optional detach.txt file to just selectively detach Theme Ready Apps.
If you don't use the supplied detach.txt file, only Theme Ready Apps will be detached.
To add your own custom packages (apps), read here > https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72194332&postcount=147
Uninstallation
Rename detach.txt on sdcard to detach.remove, flash Detach.zip again and reboot.
This will remove all files related to installation, including the txt and custom file and restores all market links.
Note
If not using SuperSU or Magisk, you need to have init.d support.
The configured script doesn't execute until after 60 seconds when boot has completed, this also includes the remove script too.
This Mod has been tested by myself on Android 6 and 7.
You still have the ability to update your Theme Ready Apps via Google Play Store but you'll need to use the search function instead.

Report 1.3: My theme ready gapps were detached except Google Calendar. I installed Black Google Calendar from TBO. Is there something I can do for this?

I was thinking about adding more themed apps to detach but would have to either use a config file on sdcard for example or probably better to make an aroma version but I would need all the package names first.

I think a "fulfilled" config file is simpler. So the users have just to add/remove '#' symbol.
For the name of the apps, maybe you can ask to TBO.

Is there any reason you are using a dynamically linked sqlite in your zip? the error the user is getting is because of that I believe. Idk I would try to use a static sqlite binary. Ill attach one so you/someone can have, but in case anyone is curious how to quickly compile sqlite3 statically ill post it in the spoiler tags below.
oh and just to note, I forgot to rename it from sqlite3 to sqlite before uploading
Im not going to explain the lines though, pretty straight forward imho
/opt/androideabi is my ndk toolchain prefix
Code:
mkdir sqlite3-static
cd sqlite3-static
wget https://sqlite.org/2016/sqlite-amalgamation-3140100.zip

Is there any reason you are using a dynamically linked sqlite in your zip? the error the user is getting is because of that I believe. Idk I would try to use a static sqlite binary. Ill attach one so you/someone can have, but in case anyone is curious how to quickly compile sqlite3 statically ill post it in the spoiler tags below.
oh and just to note, I forgot to rename it from sqlite3 to sqlite before uploading
Im not going to explain the lines though, pretty straight forward imho
/opt/androideabi is my ndk toolchain prefix
Code:
mkdir sqlite3-static
cd sqlite3-static
wget https://sqlite.org/2016/sqlite-amalgamation-3140100.zip
unzip sqlite-amalgamation-3140100
cd sqlite-amalgamation-3140100
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/androideabi/bin
cp $(ANDROID_BUILD_TOP)/bionic/libdl/libdl.c .
cp /opt/androideabi/sysroot/usr/include/android/dlext.h .
cp /opt/androideabi/sysroot/usr/include/dlfcn.h .
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc -static -I./ -L./ -ldl *.c -o ../sqlite3

I have tried installing your script... And no matter how I go about... I cannot get the script to populate the su.d directory like it should...
And... Since I don't understand your flashable... I can't pull what I want out of it...
Could you explain how to install said script without recovery?
Thanks

Magisk Root: XZ

Hi, Does anyone know if Magisk root is supported on the Xperia XZ (F8331)?
The reason I ask is I want to be able to hide root from some apps that will not work with root otherwise i'd use SuperSU.

I have had boot loops twice now.
First time I had to do a reinstall.
2nd time I ran the magisk uninstall from TWRP.
Booted up after that
Just a heads up.
I'm researching how to resolve this. Not to sure

I'm rooted with magisk too but unable to hide root from apps like 8ball pool and other apps. Hide root functionality don't work at all.

Have no problems with Magisk V12 so far had it running for several days now. Hiding root from Snapchat, My EE and some other apps without issue. I dont have TWRP installed though.

How do you hide root? With me it just doesn't work. I enable hide root and select app.

Has anyone faced any bootloops with magisk.
Some research has shown it's perhaps when using viper4android together with magisk that can cause a bootloop. But that was on a Nexus 6p from my research.
Has anyone set up magisk and also viper4android, that can let me know if they have faced this bootloop?

I have found that I can use Magisk Root with 'AndroPlus Kernel' but not 'Sony Stock Patcher for Xperia XZ by AdrianDC'. Installing MAGISK under the Sony Stock Patcher Kernel caused TWRP to create an error "Unable to repack boot image!"

latest update working without any hiccups

Can you prove that or do you mind writing a little guide how to get past safetynet?
I literally tried everything I could find to get Magisk Hide working with unlocked bootloader yesterday after the change to pass Safetynet for Pokemon Go. No chance. Before I could at least remove Magisk to run Go but now that's over. What I tried was latest A.35 with Stock + Patcher or AndroPlus with twrp and then Magisk 13.2 (plus fixes). But I always failed CTS and Basic Integegrity.
Even with Magisk Hide turned on and Core Modules only activated. No chance.

How to fix this:
1. This fix is only a temporary fix. You will have to apply it after every reboot.
2. Use a Terminal emulator app or adb to enter these commands.
3. Use resetprop to delete the properties - again: I have no idea how this interferes with magisk behavior!!!! Do this at your own risk:
Code:
su
resetprop --delete init.svc.magisk_pfs
resetprop --delete init.svc.magisk_pfsd
resetprop --delete init.svc.magisk_service
resetprop --delete persist.magisk.hide
Using Magisk Core mode? also execute this command:
Code:
resetprop --delete ro.magisk.disable

You need to know that Google updated safetynet for magisk 13.2 so for the moment it's pretty random to get it working, the team is aware of that and they're making the necessary to fix this

What kernel are you using?
Here is a small guide which definitely works:
1.Flash firmware 4.2.A.7.8
2. Uses tobias.waldvogel tool for fido_keys
Code:
-.ftf with WinRAR open,
-Kernel.in unpack,
-Open Flashtool,
-Select Top Tools,
-Sin Editor and in the next window
-Extract data.
-Now the extracted kernel.elf in the folder of the waldvogel its tool,
-There open the WinKonsole,
-Enter this command:
-Rootkernel kernel.elf boot.img,
-Disable sony_ric => YES
-Disable ... verity => YES
-DRM-Fix => YES
-TWRP => NO
-BusyBox => NO
-
NOW THE KERNEL FLASH
3. Flash TWRP: twrp-3.1.1-20170523-boot-kagura (DL: https://mega.nz/#F!bg9QhDzC!TTkhy2Fi6cNTZ1ojlmobRQ )
4. Flash Kernel via TWRP - AndroPlus kernel v27 and Reboot
5. Flash Magisk v13.3 via TWRP
Finished and safetynet should work

[MODS][SCRIPTS] Zackptg5's Misc Projects

Many of you already know that I have them all of my projects listed with their respective xda threads and download links on my website, but not all of them had an xda thread. So rather than cluttering xda with a new thread for each individual mod I make, I decided to put the smaller ones here :victory:
Binaries
Cross Compiled Binaries For Android Build Script
The new home for my binary build script. Combines what was formerly GNU and Misc build scripts into one. It contains a good number of useful binaries such as aria2, bash, coreutils (with advanced cp/mv - adds progress bar functionality), curl, gawk (GNU awk), sed, vim, zsh, and more. Check it out to see the expanding list
Keycheck
Finally tracked down the source code for this. This will compile the keycheck binary so you can use vol key selections and what not. Uses a modified build script by @osms0sis. Instructions on the repo
Zip for Android
This builds the zip binary, prepared for android by cloudchou @github in addition to a build script by @osm0sis that I modified for this. Just clone the repo, cd to jni, chmod the build script, and run it
Mods
Cross Compiled Binaries For Android
This zip contains a term script which can install any number of the growing list of binaries I've managed to cross compile for android. Here's the repo where they're all stored
Codec Power Gating Disabler [Deprecated]
Another straightforward one. Disables codec power gating. It's needed for some audio mods like @chdloc's Biquads
Kernel Sepolicy Patcher [Deprecated]
Unlike most sepolicy mods out there, this one changes sepolicy at the kernel level - meaning no boot script crap so it'll work regardless of other mods/root solutions (or lack there of). You can choose between enforcing or permissive while flashing it - you can use this to switch at will to test stuff out or whatever
Module Manager [Deprecated - not needed with magisk v24]
Magisk Canary v23.x got rid of the magisk-modules-repo from the app. This term script replaces that temporarily until an in-app solution is implemented. Allows you to update and install mods with ease.
Overlay Mount Fix [Deprecated]
Fix for overlay mount related issues with magisk - often seen in oneplus devices with /product
Misc
Searx Instance
Searx is a metasearch engine with a focus on privacy. It allows you to search many search engines at once without being tracked by them - I use it to remain private while using google and to for scientific journal article searching (science tab). I have more details on what it is/setup here on my website
More will be added when I come out with them. For a complete list of all of the stuff I work on, check out my website linked at the top of this post

Earlier this week I got Android Auto in my car. I never considered that Viper4Android wouldn't work with it. I was hoping the USB Policy Patcher would fix that but it didn't. It looks like this is a problem for most, if not all people.
Has anyone found a way to use V4A while connected to Android Auto through a USB cable? If so, please explain what you had to do. Thanks.

Updated mods for new unity 2.2
Also added option to notification_helper remover to remove libvolumelistener.so

They're technically not needed but can be useful. You can place them manually, or unzip the bash module zip and replace the bash binary in the arm folder in the custom.tar.xz folder with the one I attached

I have it as minimum of 21 because that's the magisk minapi so I'm just keeping it consistent. You can always compile it for 19 with my build script here: https://github.com/Zackptg5/Bash-for-Android-Build-Script
My compiled binaries are stripped which means that inessential stuff (things not required for normal functions) were removed. See more on that here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strip_(Unix)
