Lost SU access

Using nfx stock 2.1 rom with chainsdd superuser app. I had a problem with an app that was looping the launcher and had to restore a nandroid. All seemed to be ok until I tried to use terminal. Su was denied. I then tried anything that required SU access and nothing would work. I have tried the update from the market for the SU apk. I uninstalled it. re-downloaded the eclair version 2.3.6.1 and flashed the Zip and got this error.
"E:wrong digest: META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script E:Verification failed"
Not sure what I am doing wrong or what might be the cause for the SU apk to have stopped working, but any help would be appreciated.
I also have unchecked the debugging and rechecked it to make sure a setting was not screwed up.

Try going into settings / applications //manage applications / and find the super user app. Then force close it and clear data. The try a app that requires su. Aslo you might wanna change the notifications in the super user app to regular notification / normal instead of the toast notification. Good luck

Your OP is a little confusing, but it sounds like the zip was bad (not signed), not the apk. You could try to update the SU binary inside the superuser app, otherwise..... Go into your titanium backup and hit the "problems" button, see what happens. I am wondering if you lost busybox. Report back

Thanks for all the feed back. I did go into the application and clear data and Force Closed it. That did not fix the problem. I also changed the notifications and nada. I tend to think I lost busybox. I am not sure what it is for, but I think that was it. I did try to use titanium backup, and it gave me an error about busybox. I was going to download it again but was not sure if it was compatible with the rom I was using.
I needed to get SU access so I ended up starting over. Wiped everything, repartitioned, and then flashed a newer version of the Rom. Thanks for all the help guys.

Glad you got it fixed.

For future reference, busybox from TI backup is always the most up to date and safe/needed for any custom rom, so yes you could've updated it and it would've been fine. I don't know how you lost it but now you know how to fix it if it happens again, WITHOUT having to start over. On a side note I love being right, happy trails.

[Q] Titainum Backup PRO Problem [SOLVED]

So I have my rooted Xoom and Titanium Backup PRO. The program runs ok, but only one of my many, many applications shows up in the backup list (ConnectBot). I have busybox installed. I have also tried letting Titanium install its own busybox. Lots of 'refreshing' and 'rebooting' have not fixed it.
I have the program on my Droid phone and it works there, showing and backing up all of my apps+data.
Any ideas?
UPDATE: This is a problem with all of the current versions of busybox. The one from the market and the one that Titanium Backup installs do not work on the Xoom. I compiled up a busybox from the source last night and it works with TB. The problem seems to be with the 'find' and probably the 'cp' commands. I talked with Stephen and he is going to release a new busybox installer to the market that should fix the problem.

I'm pretty sure that happens to everyone. I think he needs to update his app for Honeycomb.
If you manually add a back up to your memory card it will show up though.

It doesn't support honeycomb yet. I have yet to get a backup or restore to work at all. I have been able to extract the backup files, and move them one by one to make apps work.

I figured it was just me. Thanks for the info. Will stand by for update.

It looks like someone have work it out:
SORRY got it working now.
Just had to reinstall busybox 3 times lol and refresh then all the app came wooot! Im happy now :-D

Not exactly repeatable . I've installed busybox several times and refreshed my fingers to the bone. Must be some other mojo he did.

Titanium Backup How To Make It Work

i realize there are already threads on this but rather than have this post lost on page 3 or post 57 i thought i would post a new thread from what i learned tonight. i am SO for searching before posting and not for creating new threads when existing ones exist that if any MOD here feels this is not relevant of a new thread then please move it or whatever into an existing thread.
ok here is what will help others that catch it before i did but now i will have to start over again next time
i SBF'd thinking it would be needed (locked and no root) for update 3.0.1 and so after i didnt get the update i went ahead and unlocked, root, and updated myself to 3.0.1.
i choose not to install from backup with Google this time and was installing everything for from scratch and as you know it doesn't install your apps and you have to search/remember the free ones to get them back.
anyway
i had installed about 10 apps then Titanium installed and i checked it and realized that everything i installed after i installed Titanium showed up as apps in Titanium as installed.
so i uninstalled all my apps prior to Titanium install and reinstalled them all and sure enough they were there in Titanium as installed apps YEAH!!!
everything was there and my thought was to go ahead and set all my app passwords etc.. up so that when i backed up with Titanium it would be as i wanted and easy to restore.
here is where i messed upped but would have had no idea until after i did it.
i installed Spare Parts and turned off Compatibility Mode so that my non-Tablet apps would be full screen and to make this take effect i needed to reboot.
the reboot caused me to loose all my listed apps in Titanium and i was back to square 1
if i had done a backup before i had rebooted i would have had everything because Titanium recognized them before my reboot.
so if i had it to (and probably will) do all over again i would:
1. unlock
2. root
3. choose not to backup from Google
4. installed Titanium
5. installed all my apps (checking Titanium along the way to be sure)
6. ran all the apps i installed with names, passwords, etc.. to set them up
7. backed up Titanium
8. install spare parts etc..
9. then reboot. THE KEY is not to reboot until you have everything backed up.
this would have saved me from starting over again until something better like a fix or solution came along.
hope this helps others

Titanium Backup

Ive been flashing the various kernels for a while now and my biggest problem is not having a working backup app.
People have said that Titanium is working for them - it isnt for me. I have the latest busybox pushed and everything as it should be, but there are only 5 elements in my backup/ restore section.
Anyone have any tips on getting it to work as intended? Or perhaps an alternative app?

Same here I only have 5 items in the list. Does anyone get all system apps?

Same thing for me. Only 5 showing.

I read on another thread that until a couple of days ago, the Titanium developers were unaware of any issues with the Xoom. Now that they know it is not working, they are looking into a fix. I can't remember which thread or forum that I read the information however.

It was not until I compared how Ti Backup works on my Nook Color that I realized where the problem is. But yes, there are no applications listed to be backed up And I've received at least a couple of updates since I bought the Pro version but nothing changed. I'm glad to hear that the developers are working on the issue. I can't imagine it being a big problem for the pros!

Titanium always is getting updates. Most of the time when I see updates available its because of ti. This shouldn't be a problem for long. Have you guys tried Mybackup Root its free and does the same thing as TB but takes lomger

I tried that when I found it for my Nook Color but it's not readily available for the Xoom. I even tried making an .apk using MyBackup on the NC but it is not listed in the app list for backup. Sneaky bastards!!

Try the BusyBox installer from the market. The one produced by Stericson. We worked on compiling up BusyBox and testing it on Xoom. Once you have that installed, TB should be able to find apps, make backups, and do restores.

thanks, it works fine... somehow fixes things despite me having installed the same version manually a number of times...

You Guys are Awesome! Thanks!

working fine... thanks much

Ditto, working great now. Thanks.

I can confirm that this works. BusyBox by Stericson from the market enables Titanium to do its normal tasks just like anywhere else...
Full backups complete.

Market and Installed Apps

So I tried the new MIUI rom for Milestone and I really liked it, I switched from CM7, and when I did a data restore from CM7 to MIUI, it made my phone freeze and not run properly, giving me system errors. So I wiped and did a davlik wipe as well. Did a nandroid restore to my CM7 rom and used Astro file manager to backup all my apps. Than I wiped again and flashed MIUI, than used astro to install all the apps again, but they do not show up as installed in my market. Just the purchased ones show up as not installed, just pruchased. Is there a way that I can fix it, so the market will detect me installed apps so I can update them. I was hoping to have to avoid reinstalled 50 or more apps.
Thanks, Adam.
Hope all that made sense lol

Use TITANIUM BACKUP and use the option to force app to show on market.

the Market Doctor? or is there another option? Will restoring my apps make them appear in the market?
Thanks.

Download the TITANIUM BACKUP and them look for the option to attach the app you want to the Market.
Simple like that.

search app call "google xxx architecture" in manage application, clear cache, reboot,relogin gmail, open market
