"toolbox", but it's already a part of Android.

oh, OK.
i have a device that hangs on boot when busybox is installed. Any ideas?
However this is only if the installer by Dominic is used. If something like Titanium Backup installs it, then there's no problem.

Superuser already installed !?

Hi,
I just received my order from Best Buy today, and Superuser was installed. I think that means it is rooted, do you think that is normal ?
Does anyone else has this on his TP ?
Thanks
(Edit: in fact not rooted, just an automatic download from the market, sorry)

just because superuser is installed, doesn't mean you have root. you need the SU in /system/xbin and busybox..
run ADB root
and type SU and see what it says
the market probably automatically installed it when you signed in, because you probably already have it on another device.

Oh yeah, that should be this, you make me less dumb now
But I thought superuser needed root to be installed (that's what they say on the market if I read correctly).
Update:
Ok, I downloaded a terminal, and I'm not rooted, since I get "permission denied" when I try sudo something or "su". Sorry for this thread!

[Q][4.0.4] How to install busybox, CWM and Bravia Engine

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

[Q] Using BusyBox app

Hi,
I wonder if BusyBox app is necessary to normal, daily use of our phones ?
I know that some changes, tweaks are impossible without Busybox, but may I remove this app after all tweaks are done ?
thx

wut? busybox isn't app. you mean busybox installer? if you already use busybox installer and busybox succesfully installed, you can remove that installer.....

What are differences between:
BusyBox https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&feature=search_result
BusyBox Installer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.busybox.installer&feature=search_result
Both apps do the same thing:
1.install busybox
2.customize installation
3.uninstall busybox
The difference is:
Authors of the apps

And now everything is clear for me

Where can i find a proper busybox for this phone?

Now that root is available, we still need busybox. everytime i try to install from the market app, it crashes my phone. Anyone have a proper busybox available?

Viper4android

Trending in new waters with some of this stuff. So I installed viper4android, and busybox, but it says it isn't the proper one. Even though, it is the one they recommended and it says it was installed correctly. Any ideas?
Have you set sel linux to permissive?..

Hmm still says it. Odd.
1. Go into Viper and uninstall driver
2. Uninstall Viper
3. Go into BusyBox and click uninstall
4. uninstall BusyBox app.
5. Reboot.
6. Install this BusyBox app
7. Go into app and Install BusyBox
8. Install Viper
9. Install driver
10. Reboot
