It seems the busybox installer at google play isnt compatible with XPS FW
Any idea if there is a compatible one??
I installed it just fine?
So it should work, try again and look carefully.
EDIT : I used this one : BusyBox
I tried lots of tmes and always get that message
It says its already installed? what does the BusyBox tab says itself?
When i try to use font changer it says u shuld install busybox and its already installed.
I'm using Busybox Installer v2.0, it gave an error a few time but after i installed titanium backup and restart my phone, i tried it again and it work

Had the same issue when I tried to root my stock 2.2 Vibrant.
Busybox has to be installed somewhere in /system, I believe. The version of 2.2 that Samsung Kies installs, however, has /system packed completely full of bloatware, so there's no room for busybox.
What worked for me was to root with SuperOneClick, then reboot my phone. That got the Superuser app working, so I could use a file manager (I used Super Manager) with root privileges to go into /system and delete some of the bloat to make room for busybox.
An alternative choice is to just flash something else, instead of sticking with a rooted stock 2.2 firmware. As far as I know, all stock 2.1 builds have room in /system for whatever you might need to put there.
let me try to install file manage and clean some unwanted files and try again...

I used Super Manager for the job, but I think about any file manager that can use root privileges would work.
Be sure to only delete bloat. Stuff like Sims 3, Amazon mp3, Slacker Radio, that sort of thing. Those are really just apps, and have no business being in /system. They're only put there because T-Mobile didn't want us to be able to delete the bloat they were paid to pre-load onto our phones. /system also holds all sorts of stuff your phone needs to work properly, so you can end up forced to Odin to stock if you delete stuff that's not bloat.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925400 is the thread that I followed to get root working on my previously stock 2.2 Froyo Vibrant. It's /system/app that you need to clean up bloat from.
Thanks i could delete unwanted apps and free up some space in system folder. I could unlock my phone and use AT&T sim.
Hi, i need to install busybox cause i want to give that v6 script a go. But it wont let me do it using the market apps. it says i dont have root access when i hit the install button.
can someone give me some basic steps to installing it please ?
im using miks CM7 rom.
also after failing to install it my wifi doesnt work. so ive had to reflash the rom twice now, im pretty over it !
just download busybox installer from the market. after installing u can download the busybox version of your choice through the installer app.
press the thanks button if i helped u
Every rooted ROM had Busybox built-in, so does CM7. If you simply need another version try reflashing the ROM and make sure you are using the installer that works, there's one that doesn't work on CM7 (Search the market for pname:"com.jrummy.busybox.installer").
i tried both installers on the market, they both failed with a rooting error. Im not going to try again because after it fails, it ****s my wifi up and i have to reflash the rom.
you say busybox is installed already tho? my phone doesnt think it is. i tried to run a script manager and it said i need busybox..
Unless you have a custom non-rooted CyanogenMod build, you should have Busybox 1.16.2 pre-installed. Run the busybox command from adb / terminal emulator and make sure you have allowed Script Manager Superuser permissions.
Hi all!
I was trying to install all that things with SE Extreme Tweak Installer (some users said it works), but CWM and Bravia were not installed. I'm rooted (obviously for doing that), but apparently i don't have busybox installed (saw it by typing "busybox" on Terminal Emulator).
What am i doing wrong?

I just followed this and all worked for me.
Hi guys, i solved it. Now i post, maybe someone will need it
-My mistake was i did not install busybox first. I went to the Play Store and downloaded it. I installed version 1.19.4 and then ran the SE Extreme (...), then all worked fine, CWM and Bravia
