Are you using a custom ROM? Custom ROMs for the X10 mini & mini pro use a chargemon shell script which is run using "busybox sh". I have seen some busybox versions around compiled without "sh". Maybe that is the problem. Try to call "busybox sh" in any terminal in your phone after updating busybox and before rebooting.
try stericson's app: https://market.android.com/details?id=stericson.busybox

which rom you've installed via seus?
btw, MiN is a stock rom with cwm, so you don't have to follow seus+root+cwm route
as i wrote before, stericson's application does the job. if you don't like the idea of installation an app for it, just install it once then rip busybox as the newest appropriate version and keep it for future.
cheers

We are trying to get the new busybox to work on Flame.E v0.2 but it keeps bricking the device. I have tried stericsons and it did not work. Phone bricked.

btw, i haven't realized that you have x10 mini pro, sorry. if you need a rom like MiN somehow, take a look to pfonck's clean rom.

yeah i already did lol, but for me its not so bad coz i made a backup of my stock with root and cwm and flash that to save me time. then i get to start from scratch from my vendors original fw before going custom. so its all gravy in the navy.
But the original problem is cant get a newer version of busybox running on Flame.E
It wont let us do it, always brick device.

Hey i;m running busybox 1.18.4 and i understand the supercharger script needs busybox 1.18.2 and lower. can i reinstall busybox from market on my current miui rom?
or is this script usable even with a version of buxybox above 1.18.2
did u try searchin google for it !! i think u might find then u can try replacing it wid ones in ur phone
I'm looking to install Busybox via the ADB method, I've seen various links posted on different web sites to the tarball of a pre-built Busybox binary for Android. However, none of them seem to point to a particularly well known or reliable source.
Furthermore, as the s5830i has an ARMv6 CPU, is it possible to use this binary from the official Busybox web site or is it not Android compatible?
http://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/latest/busybox-armv6l
Failing that would somebody mind please pointing me to the latest one that works?
"BusyBox Free" is an app you can get from the Play Store. Works great here, some apps that didn't work correctly on older busybox versions (those included with the ROM) function perfectly now.
Be careful with updating busybox !!!!!
On my Sony Ericsson XPERIA X8 when I upated busybox I bricked my phone.

GermainZ - I never realised there was a busybox in the stock ROM, (I have an app that is complaining about no busybox so I wrongly assumed I didn't have it at all). With regards to "BusyBox Free" aka "BusyBox" in Google Play, unfortunately there are a few quite recent comments from people that have broken internet or bricked their phones with it. What version of busybox do you currently have installed and have you been receiving the updates via the app OK?

Taking into account also what Ruben has said, if the busybox commands or even options on the commands have changed slightly between differrent versions and the stock ROM is relying on busybox commands in some way then presumably this could cause pretty big problems.
I installed the latest version (1.20.2) to system/xbin. You need root access BTW.
Works like a charm.

do we need to uninstall one of them? What is yours recommend?
My recomendation is that you uninstall one of them. They do basically the exact same thing, so you don't need both of them.
I'd rather just use SuperSU.

Completly the wrong forum for you to ask man !
Read the forum title !
No Samsung here !

here is the superuser update package by me...version is v2.01
SuperSU apk and su binaries
in your own custom ROMs !
As is standard (and done by
the attached ZIP), normal is
to use /system/app/
Superuser.apk for the apk
and /system/xbin/su for the
binary...but dont worry...
Its a flashable zip....flash through custom recovery...
supersu v2.14 stable
here is superuser version 2.14...check
