Hello,
I rooted my S4 with the motochopper tool in a dev forum here, no issues and worked perfectly. I was restoring my data when I installed MyBackup Pro, which complained about an out of date version of BusyBox. Looks like the one in the motochopper tool is 1.19.4, it wants at least version 1.20.
Has anyone else seen this after the root? Can I update BusyBox with the app in the play store, or is there a reason the old build was in the motochopper build from the dev forum?
Thanks in advance.
I updated my busy box version to the latest and have had zero issues.

Hi guys,
Im running the SGS3 I9300 (international), today I upgraded to jelly bean (as it became available here), my phone was rooted, so I downloaded OTA rootkeeper to pause my root so I can update my firmware. After updating, the phone was no longer rooted, I came to xda to root it, used the link here first,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273 (Auto root)
however it didnt work, so I decided to go back to the one I used before with CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695238
and that didnt work either, now nothing seems to work, could you guys point me in the right direction, cheers.
Chainfire has an app called Exynos Exploit. Try that one. Custom kernels with pre-root might work out as well.
Hi, I updated yesterday and rooted with chainfires CF-autoroot
Guys I started a thread about this update and was moved to Q&A listing (sry for misplacement)
I have done the upgrade and I can confirm that the root method "iroot25" works with this upgrade, and that autorec recovery installer also works with this upgrade.
So now I have the latest from LG, meanwhile, still having root and custom recovery, just wanted to share.

Hey guys,
I'm already rooted and running stock OG6, but I came across this "kingroot" root application and I hadn't seen anything about it on the T-Mobile S5 forum. Does anybody know if this works on our devices?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
Apparently it works on the S4 running lollipop.
On another note, do custom recoveries like twrp and philz still work with lollipop/OG6? I can't seem to get one to stick (at least from the phone app flashers). I haven't tried the odin method.
Thanks!
I was hoping to install a custom rom as well but the way I rooted it last time it soft bricked, I used kingroot
Did you use the desktop or via the app on the phone? The app on the phone plus using SuperSU Me Pro should work. Otherwise, you will have to downgrade back to 4.4.2 NB1 update and root that then update via process mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-to-update-to-i337oc3-5-0-1-keeproot-t3075814
Reference 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/root-att-s4-5-0-1-t3165816
Note - there are multiple security updates for 5.0.1 so you should read through that thread.
I'm running an unlocked Samsung Galaxy Note 2 I317 ATT with cleanROM ACE 5.0, Busybox, Titanium Backup, and other rooted apps.
However, when I flash a Lineage Nougat ROM for this phone, it now states that it's not rooted and Titanium, Magisk, Busybox, and others cannot be run because there's no root.
Root checker also reports no root in Nougat.
Any insight in fixing this appreciated.
Thanks
I found out you need Lineage's own SU addon to be rooted.
Also, my TWRP needed to be updated to flash the addon...a double whammy.
