Default [Q] What did I do to my phone??

For the most part I was just looking for the wifi tether app. So I did one click root and everything was still good. Downloaded rom manager, everything was still good, installed the clockworkmod. Phone rebooted and I had to do the update thing. Phone rebooted, still good. Installed busybox and lost the ability to usb tether my phone. Removed the busybox and got tether back. Downloaded the beast update and told rom manager to reboot into recovery and installed update, rebooted, update didn't take, did it again and still nothing. Finally booted phone and manually entered recovery mode and ran update. This one took. Now I go to try run the wifi app and it force closes. Tried to run super user app, force close. Tried to run rom mananger to restore last backup and super user fails there too. Any ideas?

This doesn't belong in development.

I would suggest you flash back to stock using Odin.

Post in Q&A

You removed busybox which is necessarily for many rooted apps, hence you get a lot of FCs

Seriously do you just think in Q&A they just talk about glitter and shoes? You don't need to goto development to get a technical answer lol

Glitter, not so much.

But we can talk Ferragamo all day long.
Are you a developer? Or possibly related to phone development?
No?...then you don't need to make a thread letting the world know you are switching phones. We really don't care.

It looks like you rooted twice with 2 different apps. Not sure what that would do bit it cant be good.
I would one click to stock, then run unleash the beast and be done with it.

Thank for moving it to the correct forum, I guess I figured since it was a problem with something from dev that is where I should post, my bad. As for the rooting twice the post said it was ok if you were already rooted.

Ok, so I used the one click root and took it back, re ran unleash and still same problem. According to the post it should install busy box at the time of the installation. It didn't, I downloaded it but it won't install.
