So I installed Rom manager, and I tried to install Clockwork Mod that it requires you to install but I get the following error
"An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!"
And when I first open up Rom Manager, it says
"You must root your phone for ROM Manager to Function. Superuser was not found at /system/bin/su or system/xbin/su. "
But I rooted my phone, and my S is off...?
Have you installed the newest busybox?
Nope, I did not have anything like that installed
Busybox said my device was not rooted...But my S- is off?...

You can also do it manually. Download a terminal emulator such as, umm, Terminal Emulator, and type in
Code:
su
fix_permissions
oh cool thx for the quick replay guys!!!!!!
I have installed Busybox installer from Marketplace. I also managed to install Busybox 1.17.1 Now if I try to update Busybox from installler first I will get empty box with OK button and the status says: Looking for BusyBox. If I then press install the whole program crashes. I also tried to update Busybox from Titanium Backup but it carshes also. I have a stock rom 2.51.1 which is of course rooted and OC'd. So nothing special. What is wrong? What can I do?
logcat pls.
The crash for Titanium Backup was caused by Droidwall. I uninstalled then the Busybox installer which is now only Busybox(?) in Marketplace and then installed different Busybox installer and I was able to update my Busybox. So no problems anymore.
Sorry to bother everyone.
In preparation for the 4.04 update, I flashed the stock 4.02 ROM and then was prompted to install the VZW OTA update. This flashed OK. I went ahead via adb and flashed cwm-recovery and then installed the su.zip file via the recovery console.
Once rebooting, I'm able to pop open an adb shell and type su and become the superuser, however none of the apps that require root no longer work -- root explorer, busybox installer, etc.
I'm guessing its a problem with my su file (possibly). Does anyone have any suggestions to troubleshoot? Thanks.
The problem I'm having specifically is gaining root access....fail (within su app).
Just installed 4.4.3 using WugFresh's excellent NRT keeping my data.
All went OK. At the end I told NRT to Root and install TWRP. Again OK.
Except that I don't have BusyBox installed. The app isn't present. SU is OK. A root checker app shows I am rooted and that BusyBox isn't installed.
There are no BusyBox files in \system\xbin or \system\bin.
Tried Google Play for Stericson's BusyBox and when the app tries to install it gives "Incompatible update" error and stops.
Found the apk file in \data\app and it comes up with "Not installed" error.
Found the zip file that NRT stored for TWRP to install and tried re-flashing that in TWRP. It says it was successful but BusyBox Installer app not available.
It was previously installed and OK under 4.4.2 this morning.
Everything else is as it was as far as I can see.
Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks
I installed another BusyBox Installer instead and that went OK.
Don't know what the problem is with Stericson's version.
Hello,
I am trying to get UbuntuDesktop using Install or Mount from this forum runnning on my Samsung S4mini
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2627255
Anyhow always when I try to mount the linux.img it says: mount: permission denied (are you root?)
(please see the attached screenshot)
You probably first recommend me to check if I have my phone properly rooted and if I have the root privileges. Yes I have both.
For rooting I used this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
It worked successfully. The App RootChecker says, Phone successfully rooted, the App SuperSU also.
I installed Terminal Emulator for the Install or Mount and also BusyBox X+ for some missing commands. Both are in the list of SuperSU and when I am starting Terminal Emulator and typing "su" a message tells me that I have SuperUser rights.
Also the installation of Install or Mount was without any error - except at the end when it was trying to mount the linux.img.
I searched the forum and google for this problem - but all solutions are concerning problems when the users didn't type su or haven't properly rooted or something similar. Unfortunately I'm a new member and so not allowed to post my question in the Q&A of the Install or Mount. I hope it's ok to do it here now.
