Buybox uninstallation Help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so i had rooted my phone using magisk and i got to know some apps need busybox to work properly and i installed it too BUT dumbass me installed it in /system/bin. The installation was succesful and i wanted to uninstall it (to be systemless again) and when i pressed uninstall it showed looks like uninstalling busybox was unsuccessful and the uninstall button got greyed out. Ig since then i am not passing safetynet too so please help me out. I used stericson's busybox app btw. And now apps cant even see that busybox is installed or not all apps say busybox isnt installed.

[Q] Busybox Installer uninstalling

Soo, I had downloaded the BB Installer to install the v1.18.2 for the Supercharger, and later I overinstalled the modified v1.19.4. Now I don't really need the installer anymore since updating my busybox would give issues to the supercharger. If I uninstall the installer, will I uninstall Busybox too? What if I uninstall checking the "wipe data" button, seeing app data is 1MB+ (seems a lot for just junk data and I'm afraid that data could actually be busybox), will I have problems? And what about the com.busybox.something in /data/app?
Thanks!

system/xbin
busybox were install there.. u can uninstall it using busybox pro apk..
But I don't want to uninstall busybox, I just want to know if uninstalling the BBInstaller with the relative data will affect my busybox in any way.
I also have this question(feeling stupid)
I think it has no effect on binary.. its safe

Busybox update problem (phone freezes)

Current version installed : v1.20.2-cm9
Busybox is installed to /system/bin/
Tried both (even Smart and Normal Install) (xbin and bin) but my phone just freezes when I do that with Busybox Pro.
Meaning I have to force a reset with the power-button.Did uninstall the application twice also, tried even the free-version.
With Busybox Installer the application I was able to install v1.20.2-cm9 without a problem. Verified the installation with (terminal emulator) v.20/2-cm9 bionic. Yes this application is not been updated for four months, meaning that it doesn't have the newest Busybox version.
Is there a other way to get Busybox 1.22.0 installed?
this is so damn interesting. With Busybox Pro it keeps freezing the installation. I downloaded Busybox X. Click on install button and 1.21.1 is installed. Then I was hoping that I would be able to update it to 1.22.0 in Busybox Pro itself, boom it freezes again . Well I am happy with 1.21.1 atleast.
Did inform the creaters of Busybox. Hopefully they fix the file-priveleges problem.

Is Superuser Working????

After a complex process to repair my bricked S3 (4.4.2), I rooted the phone with Towelroot (confirmed its rooted) and installed Superuser from the Play store.
I was of the understanding that when Superuser is installed from the Play Store that the binary upgrade is not necessary. However, I have seen no indication that Superuser is working. I explored the system/bin and system/app files with ESExplorer and I got no request from Superuser to allow root access. (there are not Superuser files either location)
I also explored the files with TitaniumBackup Pro and again not peep out of Superuser.
I went ahead and tried the binary update and it fails.
I thought I'd ask for help here before I uninstall Superuser and install SuperSU (I noticed Superuser has been updated since July 2012). At this point I believe uninstalling Superuser would be successful because it is a Play Store install.
Any help/recommendations would be appreciated. As you can tell I'm a novice at this.
NOTE: Just noticed that there are not entries in the Superuser log.
Try rooting with cf-root

Thank you for the recommendation, however, I just went ahead and uninstalled Superuser and installed SuperSU. SuperSU appears to work and is managing root access as it should.
I probably would not have gone the uninstall method with Superuser, however, I installed it from the Play Store and the Play Store installation is reportedly easy to uninstall because it does not put files in system/app or system/bin......at least I read that somewhere and I checked these locations and there were no Superuser files there.
Thanks again.
Superuser is located on /system/app
su is on /system/xbin

KingRoot doesn't work correctly on many devices. You might look into this http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/paid-software/supersu-please-t3110954
but i got root access and to check that i uninstalled some pre loaded apps
Working and working properly are not the same thing.
