Hi Everyone. I think I need some helps actually. I m sorry of my poor english.
I would like to know if i install the busybox, can i still hv system updates from google?
I hv previously installed busybox in system/bin, but then i saw the suggestion which tell me to install it in the system/xbin instead of bin.
Therefore i install it again in xbin, and i found that there re also busybox files in bin, so i delete them directly. can i actually do that??
After i did that, my phone seems to be normal without any problems.
Then, i try to uninstall the busybox but it didn't allow me to do so. After that i try to install another apps called Busybox installer and i press delete busybox in that apps. The app told me that it was successful, however when i go into the system/xbin, the busybix files are still there. So What should i do?
I apologize again for my poor English. I reli need helps.:crying:

Download "Busybox Installer" from Google Play, then, select the version of Busybox you are trying to install, it will install it easily.
Anyway, you will still have google updates.

So guys see i dont know to to automatically install it can anyone tell me how? i tryed to download to the phone but it didnt work because i got an error. When i try to mannualy install it i download files to pc and the with the usb i passed them to my phone. When i open my file manager ghost commander i tryed to copy the 3 files busybox clock.. and the xrecovery.tar to the system/bin folder. THe busybox nad the clock.. were copied but the xrecovery didnt so if can anyone help me i would really appreciate it
Thank you in advance
Hi,
I don't think it's possible to automatically install xrecovery.
You can find informations and tutos here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881614
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878426
Hope it will be useful for you.
man see
- Download and unpack the recovery package
- use Root Explorer to remount /system rw
- copy the content of the package (3 files) into /system/bin folder
this is what i have to do but how do i remount the system?
and when i copy the 3 files i got an error and the xrecovery.tar isnt copied
but the 2 other files are.
After you unpack those 3 files to sd card use root explorer to copy them into system/bin
in bin folder you have to mount r/w,there's button in right corner of the screen
after you move them,you have to set permissions for them
so the only way to do it is to buy the root explorer?
Thank you very much
guys i did everything that it said but still when the logo of SE appears the one with the icon of SE i press back and nothing is happening. Is this because i had the busybox installed from an app of the market named busybox installed?

Very probably with the busybox version you installed is NOT compatible with xRecovery, I tried different busybox, and finally got it work, hope this may help.

Hey, I made a detailed video how to install xRecovery and Custom ROM's on YouTube at, /watch?v=sJIU5qIdC-w
I have a Verizon GT that I may have to exchange. Since there is no real return to defaults capability and no officially available ROM image to reload, I may need to remove some of the things I have installed. So far I have rooted it and installed BusyBox to facilitate running VPN. I know how to unroot it, but how do I remove BusyBox? The installer does not seem to have an uninstall option. Thoughts?
First of all find intallation directory and then remove (delete) it using Root Explorer. If you know how did you install it you can look at the script and find it.
Typically Busybox is installed in /system/xbin
I think you can leave it as is because nobody will look at your Tab. It will be reflashed and retested because they realize that it was used.
Can you not find it in the market and while in the market select Uninstall?

Also when rooting by superone click it prompts that if you want to install busybox, so did it..there are two versions of busybox in the market.pls help regarding with this problem.any one
Okay, so heres my case i rooted my play and installed the custom ROM GBTweaked0. Since then i couldn't access my Recovery or install my old rom from my SD card. Me being a n00b, i tried uninstalling busybox, the uninstall failed and since then my apps seem to have lost root access and im missing /system/bin/sh.
Please if anyone could help me get the sh file back i'd greatly appreciate it. i just want my phone running back on my stock rom

i already tried reinstalling busybox from the market and it claims it doesnt have root access even though it does. i made sure in super user
you could find the busybox files and move them manually to the correct location

i dont think that that would work either because system/bin is a read only folder. so even if i knew how to manually install busybox the way your talking about i don't think that it would let me.
never mind i flashed to stock 2.3.2 using WotanServer. Thanks for the help

yes, but like i said in my first post, i tried uninstalling busybox which deleted the sh file in my system/bin folder which must have taken root access away.
But again, it's all good now cus like i said i managed to flash back to stock 2.3.2 using WotanServer and updated to 2.3.3, rooted, restored all my apps, and now my phone is back to normal.

Download root checker from play store. If it shows your phone to be rooted, then updating will brick your device. If it shows "no root access" then you can update to Lollipop.
And, a word of advice, dont update to Lollipop. Kitkat works much much better than Lollipop on A6000+.
Also, you can try custom ROMs if you are familiar with flashing ROMs and stuff..

No app without root access can install busybox because without root access they dont have permission to write in /system directory. So, the "install busybox without root" app has to store busybox files in /data/ directory, and must be guiding other apps to that folder when some apps ask for busybox.
And without root permissions you cant modify the contents of /data/.
So, you need to install that "install busybox blah blah" again and then try installing busybox again. Then, clear data of the "install busybox ..." app and I think busybox would get removed, hopefully.
And yah, if this doesn't work you can factory reset your phone. That would surely do the job.

Yeah factory resets wipes the /data/ directory. All of your installed apps will be removed too, so you should better make backup first.
