- I have an Atrix with Aura 1.2.2.2 and Android 2.3.4
- The superuser wasn't working properly and long story short I tried installing BusyBox app from the market.
Here is where the problems start and I made them worst................
So in BusyBox I hit install and I see things being remove to then get a message about permission are not set. With this SuperUser stopped working I tried rebooting the phone and wifi is looping in trying to obtain IP.
I am so mad and tired that decided alowing the OTA 2.3.6 update to install since I am tired of the never ending message...
Now when the install is about to start CWM stops and leave me with Android and an exclamation mark in a triangle.
If I restart the phone and boots to the login screen.. after a minute i will shut down and go to CWM.
Help!!
Self reply for me an others..
Read read read.. Seems installing BusyBox from the Market has cause this issue to several people. So make sure you know what works for your phone or be a guinea pig like me
Currently I just finish reinstalling Aura rom which I am pretty sure will fix the issue.
hope it will be all fixed by now. let us know please.
FYI, there is a Super User Update Fix on the market/play which would solve your original issue.

Hi all,
I've already posted on this issue but its still bugging me. I have the latest firmware, baseband and when I install the rom it works very good until the phone reboots after some time (this happens after fresh install is completed, not during installation), all apps like the market, gallery, phone, contact, all settings give errors and I get a pop up window for all of them and they all say force close. All other apps I’ve installed work fine with no errors. I reboot into xrecovery and do a wipe, clear cache and fix permissions and reboot but after a while it does it again so I keep going back to 2.1 which after playing around with 2.2.1 etc makes the x10 a better phone.
Is there anyone out there that can offer any kind of help ! PLEASE ! on this or is it just myself with this issue.
Thanks
You are not alone mate. 2.2 is always fantastic for me, at the start atleast. I end up getting pretty much the same as you, needs to be rebooted to become stable again.
The longer I leave 2.2 on my phone the more unstable it becomes.
I wander how others get there's to work. there gotta be away coz if it didn't work for everyone there would be more queries about it. I love my fone and i don't want to quit on it just yet.
If you are talking about using freex10, it requires a baseband .54, pls check on that revert back, i had used freex10 for about a week or two before moving to gingerbread, everything was working fine then for me.

I do have the latest baseband but it still bums out after about an hr or so. Even if i load a rom, don't restart and leave it overnight and when i awake i unlock the screen and i get the errors. i noticed when it tries to sync with mail i see the errors starting.
I mean gmail. could it be related to the gapps i install after installing the rom ?
Are you using gapps1901? I'm using those google apps with no problems at all....
I've tried different roms and they all end up the same, with errors. Can i use that gapps you mentioned with other roms ?
I installed eclipse for ICS with no problem. I then restored everything using Titanium backup. When I rebooted, however, a prompt eventually come up saying something like problem with Eclipse launcher. After two more reboot attempts with the same results, I went to the startup menu, and changed it to reboot without safestrap. (I honestly can't remember why I did it, but regret immediately followed .) Now, when I reboot, it tries to start the stock ROM and gets stuck on the red electric eye. Every time I reboot now, I get to that same point and it goes no further. I can't even access the startup menu anymore. Can someone please help me?
Hi everybody thanks for your help in advance,
My SGs2 is currently running siyah kernel v6.0.0.12 (the fancy one with touch recovery and dual boot).
The problems started when i recently switched from SuperSu to the open-source alternative Superuser. I'm using an app called live logcat (by Chainfire). It shows the logcat entries live as a boot animation. It was all hassle free when I used SuperSu with it. After switching to Superuser it kept getting root permission over and over for at least a minute (a previously common problem). So I was looking forward to getting it fixed since other users reported the same problem. So whenever a new version came out, I tried if it was finally fixed.
After updating to the latest version yesterday and starting the app once again, the phone crashed with the screen turning black (status bar still visible). It then rebooted and a message stating
Android is upgrading..
Starting applications
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
appeared. Whenever I reboot my phone this message appears and won't go away. I can access recovery but clearing cache and/or dalvik cache makes the window say: Optimizing application <x> out of <y>. When it is through with optimizing, 'starting applications' reappears.
I honestly have no idea what else to do.
So my question is how can I get that darn thing to boot correctly?
I'm looking for a solution which doesn't involve factory reset.
If anybody can help he/she is much appreciated.
Good afternoon all,
I have recently updated my Samsung Galaxy S3 via kies to Android 4.3. I couldn't do the update over the air as it was rooted. I had to go through and root my phone again through Odin and again all that went fine.
However since doing this I have had to restore my device 2 times as it shuts down every now and then and I find I 'lose' some apps...mainly games, which I find annoying. It also wipes any saved text messages.
At first I thought it was only losing apps that I'd downloaded through other means (i.e. not Play) but it appears not. I still have the apk files stored on the phone and have tried to re-install them but I get a message of 'app not installed'
Can anyone tell me why this is the case? As I have previously said it has only been since updating to Android 4.3. Not sure if it is due to rooting my phone (i'm guessing not).
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Chris

Please use the red report button and ask a mod to move the post.
See multiple posts re OTA and root problems.
Suggest factory reset if that does not fix then flash stock 4.3 through Odin .
I know that I can't do OTA updates... My problem is that the phone will restart, without warning and when it reboots I have lost all my text messages and a few apps. Trying to reinstall the apk files gives me the error 'app not installed'
I have tried factory reset both through the recovery mode and the system settings, but nothing resolves it.
My phone is rooted and runs Android 4.3 which was updated through kies.
The apps it loses are games so that's not a major issue... It's all the text messages.
I have a very similar problem, phone always shuts down and restarts on it's own. A couple of times it has lost some apps but usually it just starts up again fine but it's very annoying. Sometimes it gets stuck in a boot loop too.
A Google search for random reboot or random shut down brings up a lot of results but no solution's, so it seems to be a common problem. It's not just the stock rom either as it still does it when rooted and running other roms.
Hi everyone... this explanation may be long but I'll try to put my problem in context, please patience!
First, I have years of experience coding stand alone applications and programs but close to none in Android or web development experience... so ... been confident that I could do something as simple ("Yeh right!") as rooting, why should I backup anything from my phone? Big mistake...
My S2 was getting old, space was getting limited and at first I downloaded some cleaning apps (Clean Master) was good for a time but then I had to start uninstalling some of my favorite applications to keep the phone fully operational. After a while I had nothing else to install, as programmed obsolecense was getting my ass, so I decided to find out some ways to get some room in and I found External2Internal app to use my SD as InternalMem, it did the trick except that there still was the "not enough space" message and some apps still refused to install due to the lack of room. So, basically this only modified the reported space in the Storage section of settings.
How I did this? Well, installed KingRoot and then APK Uninstaller with root and External2Internal to finish the trick.
As the problems continued I decided to research more, found out that there was a "better" way, more 1337 way to ROOT and that was installing a Kernel/ROM that was rooted and that would even improve my OS. So I took a tutorial on youtube and Installed "Siyah-s2-v6.0b5" using ODIN and "I9100 XWLSN .NeatROM.Lite.v4.6.1" with Recovery Mode -> Install ZIP from SD. At the end the CMW kept saying that I needed a upgraded version of it and SU needed to be updated but it failed everytime.
After each attempt I wiped to factory settings, cache, battery and even some delvik...
Nothing worked, I downloaded a console simulator to be certain about the rooting and surprise! It wasn't rooted at all...
Then I downloaded CMW update... SU Update... Syrah update... then tried with 4.6 NeatRom Apollo Kernel....:crying:
Now... the phone won't start... it can go into download mode and recovery mode but after ... nothing... I doesn't show anything pass the Samsung Galaxy S ii start screen with the admiration sign < ! > with the triangle.
I Factory reset, wiped everything and still nothing... doesn't start properly.
PLEASE HELP!!!
[bump] please help!
