I have an T-Mobile HTC One that's rooted with stock 4.3. I'm unable to install Busybox 1.21.1 and have tired through the BusyBox installer, but also tried via TWRP and CWM. I am running: UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip. Am pretty sure this has something to do with stock ROM, but I'm reluctant to change as I need T-Mobile WiFi calling

Hello Guys, I finally rooted my Galaxy S2 today but when I tried to install busybox through busybox installer from the market. It says "problem with core utilities".
I tried reinstalling the busybox installer but still got the same results?
Please help me.
Isn't busybox installed automatically with root? You can check it doing SSH to local and type 'busybox'

How have you rooted your phone?
By flashing a rooted kernel, such as CF-Root, you would have SU (superuser = root access app), BB (busybox) and CWM (ClockWorkMod) recovery and manager app.
So, why don't you just flash the corresponding CF-Root kernel to your phone?!
Here is Chainfire's thread => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399&highlight=CF+Root
He also described how to update busybox via stericson's installer app from the market.
Good luck !
I rooted using the Super One Click with unsecured kernel, when I tried to install Titanium Backup it was looking for BusyBox.
Thanks for the replies, I will now try them.
I have a problem with my phone. I want to use the Galaxy SII repair tool. It says I need busybox 1.7.1 installed to use the app.
I have a newer version of busybox and I can't install the older version on the phone. How do I go about removing this new version?
unroot your phone, that will remove busybox, then manually install older version.
fix your problem then reroot your phone with the newer version.
I can't find a rom and a rooted kernel I can use that has busybox 1.7.1 or earlier installed. Can anyone help me?
anyone?
As I wrote on my previous question, I softbricked my phone yesterday when I installed BusyBox X and CWM recovery on my phone. I got a replacement phone and I am cautious on bricking the phone. I am trying to figure out if I did a wrong combo in installing these two things. I had this phone in the summer and I'm trying to remember from memory how this goes.
First I installed LGPwn and rooted it that way, then I installed BusyBox X and pressed the button that said install, finally I installed the L9 bootstrap recovery and rebooted. Then I proceeded to install 2 zip files, 1) Black Status Bar tweak by Mateo1111 and 2) Hide QApps also by Mateo1111. I restarted the phone and was greeted with the error of com.android.phone has stopped and encrypted/ reset phone. Did I do anything wrong? If so, please help me out!
The problem you had was actually with busybox. I had the same problem after I rooted my L9. I rooted and then installed busybox and everything seemed fine, I then booted to cwm and made a nandroid backup, then after booting back to android os, I was greeted with "Encrypting - Reset Phone" To recover from this, I booted back to recovery and restored the backup and then everything was fine. When it comes to busybox the L9 is very particular. Mine wouldn't work with busybox by stericson I had to use busybox x. If you tried busybox x and had that problem you might want to try busybox by stericson and install version 1.21.0 and use smart install.

Thanks for your reply! I did install the other version of BusyBox by Stericson and it worked flawlessly. No errors so far, and I have my phone set up the way I like it.
Awesome... Glad I could be of help.
I am running Android 5.01 and I was rooted and Busybox needed to update. It failed and I lost root. I am unable to reinstall SuperSU even though I have TWRP Recovery. When I reboot there is no SuperSU installed and root does not work.
nevermind I just found it easier to start over. restored recovery files back to default stock and rooted phone again. What a mess.
