1 ★ I was really eager to try this app but it keeps telling me that it was unable to install busybox and i have busybox app installed on my device
5 ★ The future of gaming looks very bright with helping apps like this one. Recommended by me.
1 ★ After downloading from play. It tells you to install BusyBox. But it won't let you.
1 ★ It doesn't work for me. On Android 8.1
1 ★ not installing in nokia 3 Android 9 latest version
1 ★ Not recommended if your android is newer than 4.0 😠
1 ★ not working @ oreo :-(
1 ★ Just doesn't work
1 ★ don't work
4 ★ I had a few issues but changing the export command to have $PATH the end instead of beginning fixed it (as suggested by Pete Lewis in the reviews). You should put that in the app description. Really would have liked commands like dpkg
3 ★ Does not work. Promising but there are linking errors and segmentation faults. You need to keep up with the requirements of latest Android versions. SM-N950F with Android 8, latest OTA update available for XSA region as of time of writing. If there is not already, please add sshd - I simply want to be able to SCP files to device, compile with GCC and execute - I have no desire to use the terminal on the phone. Cheers
3 ★ Some commands work, some don't. Great idea though. LIBRARY_PATH:/data/data/burrows.apps.busybox/app_busybox < u0_a197@HWGRA:/ $ lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 u0_a197@HWGRA:/ $ id CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE DEPENDENCIES: "libc.so" is 32-bit instead of 64-bit 1|u0_a197@HWGRA:/ $
5 ★ This app has been so useful for me in the past. I messaged the developer on Facebook to thank him. He responded and asked if there was anything I could think of for him to improve. Stand up guy.
3 ★ A nice simple workaround to get the busybox commands without having root. If this is foreign to you or you run into difficulties; read on my frustrated friend. The final installation step for proper functionality is an environment variable string (LD_LIBRARY_PATH) novelley supplied by the author via your devices clipboard at the end of the installation. You will need a terminal emulator (easy download also included by the author) to input the command that was copied to your clipboard. Just add $PATH to it.
4 ★ Little quirks here and there like ssh trying to create /data/.ssh but it works fine! Also you can fix the home directory by putting a " ; cd " after the initial command.
