Hi all,
Just flashing my note 3 to stock rom 4.3 latest update. Then using dr.ketan multitool to root, at this stage all is good. Until I install apps like titanium backup (titanium said no binary found) or triangle away (it says supersu needed, even the phone is rooted and supersu can be updated). Tried to install busybox from apps store but still can't fix the problem. checked with root checker, it says device rooted but no busybox found.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Have tried to flash and reflash so many time with different options but still no fix. I just need to get the busybox get recognised so my titanium backup and triangle away can work properly.

I unlocked then rooted my nexus 7 8GB. Mainly to access external storage. This I achieved and with stickmount was able to achieve the objective, reading from a usb stick.
I felt at the time that there was something wrong as installed app Titanium backup pro - but could never find it. though google still tells me it is installed.
Rom manager states I have ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0 & that 6.0.2.3 is available BUT after dowloading "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" an error occures.
I installed root checker pro. It advises that not rooted properly although busybox is installed correctly. Reports attached
I have both superuser installed at original root. Since also installed Super su, neither will install binary code.
Is there anything I can do to ensure I am rooted and stay that way?
Thanks for any help offered.
Easiest thing to do boot into recovery, make a backup always,do a wipe flash a custom ROM plenty out there
You may have lost your root, so try to reroot. As for keeping root, DL Voodoo OTA RootKepper from the Play Store. Works like a charm.
Hi,
I rooted my wifi Nexus 7 using Wugfresh toolkit and everything worked fine. After that I installed SmoothRom 4.3, which again went without a glitch. However, at some point I have noticed that the root is gone. This may have happened when I flashed Trinity kernel, but I am not sure. The Superuser SU is still there and couple of programs still have root access (e.g. Nova launcher), but Titanium backup no longer has root access (and it worked before). I re-rooted this morning using Wugfresh and everything went to the completion. I have Superuser SU and Busybox icons, but Busybox would not install and Titanium backup would not work due to the absence of root access. Any thoughts of what can be done to fix this?
Did you flash with TWRP or CWM? I have heard that you have to re-name some of the file names so that you do not lose the root access. You may have to re-flash and start from scratch but I am not sure. Personally i used MSKIP's toolkit. His has basically a 1.2.3........... root and flash setup. It is very easy to follow, plus one of the steps states "Do you wish to re-name file names so as not to lose Root access on restart." or something pertaining to that, I forgot exactly what it says, but I know that it is there.

I had the same issue. If you reflash the ROM, the problem corrects temporarily. It may be something w/the most recent version of Smooth- particularly when updates are made to Super User. I tried several different kernels and still "lost" root. Eventually I moved on to another ROM and have not had the issue since.
Thanks for the suggestions. I am using CMW. Tried MSKIP toolbox, but same result. Titanium gave back an error message that device appears to be rooted, but Superuser SU is not working properly. So, I went back and did CMW restore from an earlier backup, which seems to have fixed the problem. Titanium is working again.
Hey everyone,
After updating to 4.4.2 I had the SD Card Write problem that other people have been having, and I looked around and found two threads here with a guide to fixing it.
This one :

I tried flashing both the files (Using Philz recovery) but it didn't help.
What's more confusing is that if I try to manually edit my platform.xml file, ES file explorer simply says "Task Failed" when I try to save the edited file or even replace it with a pre-edited one. This is despite granting it root permissions. I thought that maybe my phone didn't root properly, but root checker says it's rooted fine, and I've used Xposed, AdAway, Greenify, and Seeder successfully.
This is the method I used to root and install recovery :

I'm not sure if this is related, but Titanium Backup's freeze feature isn't working for me anymore either. I have purchased the Pro version. It says freezing successful, but it simply doesn't do anything to the app I'm trying to freeze.
Any ideas what's happening here?
Did you try custom kernel? That's how I got it fixed
As far as I could tell, none of the custom kernels for the I9500 are stable. I need my phone to be rock solid (that's why I'm sticking to stock as well) so can't afford to flash a custom kernel.
Any alternate solutions anyone? And any idea what's causing this in the first place?
Hi there guys and gals,
I just rooted my s5 running NK2 by Odining down to NCG, installing towel root and then Odining back up to NK2. I downloaded root checker which says I am rooted, I have downloaded es file Explorer and been able to write to SD, and I've downloaded TI backup and deleted all the Verizon bloatware on my stock samsung rom, but when I tried to install busybox, I get an error that reads "I am unable to verify if certain utilities this application needs to function are present and functioning on your device. This could be the result of a device being misrooted or a supersu error. Please try again".
I've tried rebooting the device,
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling busybox and haven't gotten any improvements.
Please let me know if you can help!

Update SuperSU from here or here and try again. Make sure you are installing the Stericson version of BusyBox.
No luck. The updated version didn't do anything.
try dling busybox installer from the playstore and use thst to install busybox
I recently got a Galaxy S5 (SM-G900T with LMY47X.G900TUVS1FOJ4).
I grabbed chainfire autoroot and flashed it with the Odin 3.10.6 that came with the CF file. It successfully rooted the phone. I installed Titanium Backup and restored all the stuff I wanted from my old device.
I've been using the device for 1-2 days now and lost root. I opened TB and it says I'm no longer rooted. I confirmed this by downloading a root checker and it also says I'm not rooted.
According to TB, I had BusyBox for root. There was no application icon nor was it in my list of installed applications. When I used chainfire's autoroot on my S4, it installed a super user program that I could open from my app list.
I would really like to continue using Titanium Backup. Does anyone know how I can gain root access again? I already messed it up once by reflashing the autoroot. This caused an infinite bootloop and I eventually got out of it by doing a factory reset. I've returned my S4 to T-Mobile and don't want to soft brick my phone again.
Thanks.
Anyone have any suggestions of how I can reroot my phone?
If you successfully used cf autoroot then that's not the issue.....My money is on a deleted or disabled or un-updated super user app.... this is what will give you (or prevent you from having) root access to your device.

Some days ago I get same problem ( lost root ) because i use supersu v2.67 on cm13 for sg s5 : g900f
therefore, after installed cfroot you can use twrp 3.0.0.0 as custom recovery
Then , Download. & update supersu to v2.65 by using twrp recovery ZIP version
Thanks i'm waiting for a reply
