The app is what manages the Binaries...

For example, it's almost like the SuperSU app. The Superuser Binaries are installed and the app manages the Binaries and the access to them. XPosed is even similar regarding the Framework itself and the Installer app manages the framework and access to it via the modules.

There's much more to it but, I hope that this explains it a bit better.

_____

There's always the manual way to install and symlink the Binaries but, it needs to be symlinked to an app for managing the Binaries.

Regarding the ToyBox... This is not necessarily required if BusyBox is installed but, ToyBox may have Binaries that handle certain callouts better than that the BusyBox Binaries can perform doing (and vice versa).

The ToyBox Binaries were updated at one time and does need to be updated again but, unfortunately I'm a bit stretched with what I have on my plate and I just can't get enough time to grab the Binaries from Landley to compile and update as needed.

The script is created for BusyBox to determine if it's more up to date or missing from the BusyBox Binaries as well. Though the Binaries are already symlinked, it's the BusyBox app itself that will determine which one to go with. This is why the app won't have all the ToyBox Binaries listed because it had determined to go with the BusyBox Binaries and vice versa.

I did my best to explain this via text... :eek:

Just an FYI... I may not be on the forum much for the next couple of days.

My primary device has been acting up a bit and It looks like it just needs to be cleaned up and a fresh install of the Custom Firmware will have to be done.

It's one of those things that comes with being a tester, developer, etc...

I assure you that it's not this development that caused the issues. LMAO!!! :eek:

I'm using one of my other devices for this post. Another thing that comes with Developing is the need for having a handful of devices with the virtual ones.

I'll still be popping in and out of the forum until my device is up and running. :thumbup:

I'm currently working on some other developments and such but, I'll try to see what I can do about the updates.

I just wanted to check in and say Hello!!! :)

I've currently been trying to get into the Development Arena in a different way/direction right now in Github by way of Android Studio and Eclipse.

I have used them before but, not as much as I used to and not at the level I'm approaching at this time.

As I've always stated regarding my being familiar with certain areas and now I'm trying to get a bit more involved in them. It helps being familiar with certain things that I can apply towards the actual application as I attempt to extract my former education and experience i haven't used in quite some time.

I do apologize if I'm absent a bit more frequent here but, I do check in on the Forum at least once or more per day.

Please let me know if there are any questions or if you even want to say Hello. :eek:

Hello mr.Ibuprophen

Im a newbie & i want to ask some question..

My os is cm13 by adityaupreti for grand 2.

- Can i flashing this busybox for my cm13 os without any isues?

- if yes, how do i uninstall this bb? Because your tread not give an uninstaller for this bb.

- do i must install the bb from playstore after i flashing this bb?

- Or i just flashing this bb is enough? Because i dont need the bb interface..

Because i want to install lu*ckyp*tch*r and other app that need busybox..

Thank you before and sorry for my bad english..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ibuprophen:
A very good set of questions! :)

Q: Can i flashing this busybox for my cm13 os without any isues?

A: Yes! I've tested it on one of my Galaxy S3 devices that currently has CyanogenMod 13.

Q: if yes, how do i uninstall this bb? Because your tread not give an uninstaller for this bb.

A: First, the flashable installer performs the same task as does the App when you select the Install option from the BusyBox (by Stericson) app.

Second, this flashable installer is only an alternative that many individuals prefer to help ensure that BusyBox maintains the ToyBox Binary Symlinks that can easily be lost is the install/update is not applied a certain way.

Third, uninstalling the Binaries can easily be performed within the apps "Uninstall" option at the bottom next to the Install option.

Q: do i must install the bb from playstore after i flashing this bb?

A: The preferred method (not the only method) for a new/fresh install using this flashable Binary Installer...

First, Download and install the BusyBox App via the Play Store BUT, don't open it yet.

Second, reboot into recovery and flash the zip file from this thread then reboot the device normally.

Third, open up the BusyBox app and don't touch anything. Just wait till the top progress bar reaches 100% and disappears.

Now it should be all set to go! :)

Q: Or i just flashing this bb is enough? Because i dont need the bb interface..

A: the last question should answer this...

I hope that I had answered your questions okay via text...

Thank you mister for your replay & instruction..

Im already follow your instruction and its working..

But after that, what i must do?

Do i must install the binary again (smart install) from the busybox (in app install)? Or no need to install it again?

Because when i use bb in rooted stock rom kiktkat i always smart installing the binary.. How about in this CM13?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ibuprophen:
You've got 2 options...

1) When BusyBox has an update via the Play Store, you can just simply select the install option at the bottom of the BusyBox screen.

2) When I provide a flashable update, you can just simply flash it and open the BusyBox app (as you did before) waiting for the progress bar to reach 100%.

You don't need to start from the beginning now that you've accomplished the initial setup.

Can you please bundle busybox with official toybox....sir

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ibuprophen:
Sorry for the delay in responding back to you...

First of all, the ToyBox Binaries present are "Official" but, your correct regarding the ToyBox Binaries badly needing to be updated.

Please just keep in mind...

1) This thread is specific to updating the BusyBox Binaries while keeping the ToyBox Binaries Symlinked to the BusyBox app.

2) There's many of the BusyBox Binaries that matches/identical to the ToyBox Binaries whereas the "Primary BusyBox Binaries" will ALWAYS take president over the "Alternative ToyBox Binaries". This results in the ToyBox Binary Matches being removed for the BusyBox Binary.

I'm still trying to get the ToyBox Binaries updated but, Landley (the developer for ToyBox) is still working on some issues reported for Android Specific Binaries. I've been actively following this and others on Github for quite some time now.

Thank you very much for your time, feedback and understanding with this! :)

I don't really mess much with busybox since I don't know a lot about coding or java or developing, i just use it cause a lot say it needs busybox ;p For someone like me, is there any adv/disadv of different busybox apps?

Hi, I've installed BuxyBox Pro on a Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus with Resurrection Remix (Oreo 8.1.0), rooted with Magisk.

Is it normal that, when I boot the phone, I always receive a notification saying: "Success! Busybox has been updated/installed"?

Should I enable "Smart Install"?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ibuprophen:
Magisk uses its own version of BusyBox in its own unique way.

Before you can use the BusyBox by Stericson, you will need to Disable/Turn Off the option for Magisk to no longer manage BusyBox.

Please refer to the last image located on the following thread post that reflects this option.

Hi, here:

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/enable-busybox-magisk-settings-t3672886

it says that BusyBox is now available as module in Magisk.

If I search for BuxyBox in Magisk modules, there is "BusyBox for Android NDK", which, as far as I read, is something for developers.

What I can't understand is the meaning of the notification I receive everytime I boot the phone, saying: "Success! BusyBox has been updated/installed".
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ibuprophen:
My apologies for the delay...

I tried to locate something regarding that message for about an hour and came up with nothing.

I've never seen it before and I don't recall seeing anyone else asking about that either.

I do believe that the "BusyBox for Android NDK" is something from Osmosis but, I'm not sure.

I've got a feeling that there's some type of conflict between Magisk and the Stericson BusyBox app.

Though, Magisk doesn't have the traditional BusyBox UI, I do believe that it does install it for the use/operation of Magisk in general.

I really can't be of much more help regarding this matter since I don't currently use Magisk but, I do believe that the Stericson app message is tied somehow to Magisk.

I hope that you are able to obtain some member guidance within one of the Magisk threads.

I wish you the best of luck! :)

Just a quick announcement...

I am going to "temporarily" place this project on hold for the following 2 reasons in on themselves as well as a combination of them in one form or another:

1) Time Constraints are currently being experienced by myself with juggling not only the current projects released but, preventing others that I haven't released yet.

2) Till I figure out the direction in which I want to go with it regarding a continuation, stopping and/or breaking it off into 2 separate projects.

I'm going to keep the downloads available (as provided by the OP) since their still good and if someone would like to keep using them.

I appreciate your time, support and understanding with this and I'll definitely announce something as soon as I have made any decisions in full or in part.

[I'm running a stock 7.1.1 without root or any other mods]

BT doesn;t work with 2 BT devices which can do phone...

Example:

1) BT watch, Huawei Watch connected - this watch can receive and make phone calls... It has a microphone and speaker, so it works like a full-fledged phone device. It is basically **** Tracy device... look it up ...

2) When the watch is connected, another BT phone device, like a car kit, doesn't connect. You can go to BT settings and manually click on the BT device to connect. Sometimes, it connects w/o extra help. And sometimes, clicking doesn't connect at all. Sometimes it connects automatically. Bugs!

3) When both devices seem to be connected (even though only one is shown to be connected), both can make calls, but only the "active" one receives them...

The active being the one that was connected last.

4)

------ This was not a problem in 7.1.0. Whichever device (watch or car kit) initiated or answered a call, would be used to do the complimentary function - If you make a call on watch, you get audio for the call on watch. If you receive the call on BT car kit, you answer on it. Without fail this worked just fine. Both incoming and outgoing calls. It made sense and it worked beautifully.

-----

Until 7.1.1.

---- Now, if a watch is connected (Huawei Watch, which can act as a phone itself), the BT car kit will not connect. If you connect it manually by clicking on it in BT settings, it will connect, but all phone actions, even initiated from the watch will only work on the phone.

In other words, 7.1.1 killed BT functionality with several BT phone devices.

Why can't they fix it?

UPDATE after 7.1.2

So, 7.1.1 killed phone functionality when both a phone capable watch and another BT phone device were connected simultaneously - both wouldn't work correctly at the same time.

7.1.2 didn't fix this at all.

What 7.1.2 did was introduce new bugs: 1) Weather built-in app no longer works on my Huawei watch, it just spins the circle retrieving weather data and then just goes back to watch face, 2) The watch no longer displays some notifications, for example, SMS.

I played with all of the settings in the watch, phone, and android wear app. Nothing.

I have a theory... Google has two android development teams. Let's call them Team A and Team B. Team A works on a yearly cycle developing new android OSes, for example, they are probably working on Android O right now. Team B picks up development and maintenance duties after Team A makes the initial android release. Team B would be working on Nougat right now. Team B is comprised of rejects from Team A; they have very little talent, attention to detail, or even skill. They may fix 1-2 bugs in an incremental android version, but they introduce 5 more new ones.

This is why Android 7.1.0 was less buggy than 7.1.1, and conversely, 7.1.1 was less buggy than 7.1.2.

I'm on stock like the OP. My bluetooth issues are similar and I have one more.

Devices I'm paired to disappear from the BT list. I got in my car yesterday and was surprised the screen needed me to enter my PIN as I had my car in Smart Lock. Go look and sure enough not connected to the car and the BT list doesn't have my car listed as a device. I had to re-pair to the car. Then I had to readd to Smart Lock. This has happened with other BT devices (primarily headsets as that is really the only other things I use with my phone). This happens frequently and almost daily that I lose one or more BT paired devices from the list.

Other times, primarily with my Bose QC35 as I frequently turn it on/off, it will be in the BT list but the phone says I need to pair the device again. This only happens about every 10th time I turn the headphones back on.

Unfortunately, I've only had 7.1.1 on this phone as it is only a few weeks old. So I don't know if stuff would have worked in 7.1.0.

So I was messing around with a Galaxy On5 that Straight Talk had sent me for free. I was rooting it and along my journey I found myself in a very strange mode that I would like to figure out how to return to. The phone booted up with some arrows along the bottom, or gears and said Factory something. It was some strange developer test mode or, something along those lines. It was a weird home screen with blue(I think) squares and abbreviations in them. There was a long stretched green battery bar at the top with segments. There was also some strange applications, but notably, and the reason I want to get back into this, there was what I believe to be the default AM/FM radio app. This app was different from the ones you find by 3rd parties, it had an older appearance and did not require anything to be plugged into the phone jack to work. It also worked quite well compared to other radio apps. There were a few other test type features like vibrate and what not. This was not safe mode, as it almost looked like a completely different operating system. Is there anyone who can give me any insight as to what the heck this was? I have tried Googling all kinds of things to try finding something similar but nothing at all, just the typical Recovery and Download modes which I am already familiar with.
