I have the latest 2.0.2.A.0.24 version of android and have rooted my phone with superoneclick but cannot install busybox. It shows the following message when I run it:
"Please wait while we locate BusyBox and gather system data..."
After a few minutes the message goes away and it says:
"Your phone is rooted
BusyBox was not found"
I have tried pressing the install button but it does not do anything???
Has anyone come across this problem before??
Is busybox installed from the market?

It had this exact problem (with market busybox), I had to wait quite a while after pressing install, then it worked.
Have a little patience
did you install superuser
Did you reboot after rooting?

1. reboot.
2. install superuser
3. busybox
and you're good to go.

Have been trying to upgrade my x10i, have been having a problem with getting xrecovery installed as I know it requires it, it came with it installed but with only 2.2 android system installed .
I have managed to install this version X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_1241-1846 ( 233mb odd ), which i got from one of the treads here, installed it to get me out of having a soft bricked phone, so the base band is now .71 while android v is now 2.3.3.
Only real problem is that i cannot seem to install xrecovery, or get into recovery mode. Does anybody have a ftf file that installs xrecovery so that i can then look at installing one of the nice roms on here
does anybody otherwise know how to install xrecovery to a x10 without it already?
I have been looking on here but have had not much luck except from almost knackering my phone, and ending up till about 3.30 in the morning getting it back up and running, so any ideas would be appreciated.
also flashtool doesnt seem to detect the phone, when booting into flash mode except from when flashing a file.
I think that its rooted, via superuser installed, plus have also installed busybox, as i know thats also meant to be installed.
If you put into Google download xreocovery.apk you can install it that way make sure you have busybox installed

Go watch this video!

That is the DooMLord method.
Helped me get my 2.3 phone rooted and put xrecovery.
2.3.3 gingerbread needs to be flashed to a phone that uses root with xrec,superuser,and busybox installed and working before trying to flash.
As far as I know you can't root 2.3.3.
When trying to install xrec what happens, does it ask for supeuser
permission?
If the pc dosent detect the phone u must only have pluged in the phone on usb,sry4my english:d

ok, got this far, managed to get xrecovery 0.3 installed, after getting access to root and busybox installed.
now trying to install the wolf gb 3.5 rom installed it says this error:
installing : sdcard : wolf_gb_2.3_tw_v3.5.zip
finding update package....
e: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcb1k0)
(Device or resource busy)
E: cant mount sdcard:wolf_gb_2.3_tw_v3.5.zip
installation aborted
i then find that the card has has been unmounted, and cannot be remounted unless i reboot, any ideas?
Have also tried to use the restore method for a couple of the roms here that that comes up with error:
e: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcb1k0)
(Device or resource busy)
cant mount /sdcard
Did you backup your rom, system reset, wipe cache, wipe data.
Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHBYJW2verg&feature=feedu_more
edit: You should still have the rom in tact on the phone.
When I say wipe and reset that = format in xrec.
Yep done all that, its xrecovery im having a problem with, i cant figure out how to update, tried copying over to phone with write access, no luck, cant even figure out about the shell as i dont see anything for it, so cant run commands, im really getting naffed off about this now as been spending nite and day trying to figure it out with no luck
You didn't watch the video did you, save you and me some time and watch it!
I need to know a few things.
1. Can you you boot into recovery? 2. do you have a way of copying files to your phone. 3. have you the kernel, Bb, Rom and any tweaks and fixes you want, downloaded. 4. What rom are you running on your phone and does it work. 5. Do you have PC Companion, Update Service, and Flashtool installed on you PC.
Why are you talking about shell, commands, and write access. you don't need any of that.
Settle down... watch the video, it's only 14 mins.
Hi guy. The first thing I want to say is there are two way to root from Android 2.3.3:
- Downgrade to Android 2.1 and root then install custom ROM but it's just an Android 2.1 with Android 2.3.3 baseband and kernel to run with custom ROM.
- Root from Android 2.3.3 and till now just one method is working.
I think that its rooted, via superuser installed, plus have also installed busybox, as i know thats also meant to be installed.

You did the wrong way.
This is root method and install xRecovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196808&page=1
And I will say that the BusyBox installer will not help you to install xRecovery. It will not work. So, you have to do like that method and watch video if you want.
I have tried to Root my Vibrant on the UVKB5 update for a while now.
One Touch Root, says "no space on device", yet declares the phone rooted (su commands do not work).
Applications that require root, though, do work the su binary is always outdated and cannot be updated because "cannot find installed su binary".
This was found when I tried to boot into Clockwork Mod but only ended up in recovery mode - I downloaded the e3 fix that told me "the system cannot find the path specified. temp root failed! install cannot continue." All Try agains and Reboot and Try Agains result in the same answer.
I don't want to go back to JFD because I've done it before with a CyanogenMod with SGSII and everything crashed.
But if I did go to JFD, could I install CyanogenMod 7 the same? (the instructions assume I have the UVKB5 update)
Help.... please?!
Thanks!
i believe CM is like miui...as in the way of flashing it on the vibrant. u can either flash it from eclair 2.1 or froyo 2.2. as long as u can boot into recovery. but if u flash it from 2.1 u might have to pull out the battery then reflash from the new recovery since it bootloops...hope that helps.. i actually read how to install it..have u tried flashing project v which is a uvkb5?? then CM??that could be an easier way since project v is already rooted.
Sent from my Vibrant
I kinda wanna just install cyanogenmod...
all u have to do is this
1) root
2) install rom manager (free) from market
3) install cwm from rom manager
4) click reboot in recovery from rom manager(it will ask for root access)
5) reinstall package(u may have to repeat this step twice
6) put a custom rom of ur choice CM7 or miui
7) install it ....THAT'S IT....

Did you even read my original post.
My phone is only half rooted. Clockwork won't open and the e3 fix can't find root.
I know what to do, I was reading the instructions.
Have you tried to update your Superuser app in the market? If you download it and install the update you might get a parse error or something that says it can't update the binaries. Scroll down in the market link for Superuser and there is an Update Fixer. Install and run that and then rerun/update the Superuser app.
Sounds like your binaries are out of date. This shoud fix it. Might also want to go to settings>manage apps>Superuser and clear cache/data. Once you update the SU, you'll have to re-grant permission anyways so clearing data shouldn't be an issue.
If that fails try to re-root is with Option A here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028 There are two options here. Choose before you start.
A: Download this update.zip file to root your phone. You plan to install Rom Manager to flash CWR and a new ROM later.

That is not the problem. Installed Update Fixer. Signatures are "OK!". Force, just force closes the app.
A: I can't flash through CWR, as mentioned in my OP.
Looks like I'm going to have to start over again and just ODIN through this..

I did read your OP and it says this. If you update your SU then the binaries will update too with the fixer. The you can download CWR from the market, reinstall it, grant SU permission and flash away. Try going into settings>manage apps>superuser and clear cache/data. If you are only half rooted as you say, then first thing to do us get full root back, eh? Good luck.

Thanks for all the help, but in the end I did man up and went back to stock JFD and now Cyanogen mod runs amazingly. And the MMS that didn't use to work on my phone -does!
Google Apps didn't install properly and I had to re-install the rom 'cause i was impatient.
Love it now though... and google thinks I have a nexus s. ^^

Hey guys,
I have an i9300, rooted with slimbeam installed. A few days ago I dropped my phone and the screen cracked and the display disappeared; so I got it replaced. When I turned my phone on again, it was stuck on the boot screen. So I fully wiped my phone and flashed slimbean again (as I already had the file on my external SD card). This got me passed the boot screen and my phone is working fine except it seems like I don't have proper root access. I downloaded a root checker and thats the message I got "Does not have proper root access" and when I run superSU it said "the su binary needs to be updated" so I click on update and I get a message saying " install failed. Reboot and try again" I reboot and tried again and same error
Anyone know what my best course of action would be?
EDIT: It also randomly keep rebooting.
Thanks a lot guys!
Cheers

i did flash superuser from the respective thread. When I run the root checker app I still get the "Sorry! This device does not have proper root access". When I run SuperSU it says "There is no SU binary installed and SuperS cannot install it. This is a problem! "
What do I do now? I was hoping flashing SuperSU would solve the problem.. but i guess that didnt work
Hello peeps, evilbeef here!
So yea, I have rooted my phone a while a go I have used Odin v185
and I used Speed Kernel S2 K-2 -21 as the PDA file. I have found this on GalaxyS2 Root webpage
I have successfully rooted it, basically I have rooted so many phones using Odin. :laugh:But this one is different. I already have Superuser app (from google store) before I started rooting it. After I rooted it, my phone rebooted automatically. In the Startup, The phone has yellow triangle. My Phone works normally.
BUT THE PROBLEM IS, THERE IS NO REQUEST OF PERMISSION SHOWING, I ALSO USED ROOT CHECKER, IT IS NOT WORKING, IT SAYS ROOT ACCESS IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED. ALL OF THE APPS I DOWNLOADED THAT NEEDS ROOT PERMISSION ALSO DOESN'T WORK.
BUT ONE THING I AM WANDERING ABOUT IS THAT MY KERNEL VERSION CHANGED.
IT SAYS THAT: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #k2-21
But also when I go to recovery mode, I can flash CWM recovery automatically.
The only thing that doesnt work I think is the Superuser.
I also tried checking su binary vlegacy. I also try to check for updates but superuser keeps me forcing it to close.
I think I am only having issues with Superuser I think. How Can I fix this? Please Help
Uninstall supersu from you phone.
Download supersu from this link- https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/ Copy paste it into your SD card.
Boot into cwm recovery and install the supersu zip file you downloaded.
Thanks for the fast respond bro! I was thinking about the same thing tho, I just want to have confirmation from others if this thing would work! HAHAHAHAH thanks mate! :--------)
