[Q] Fix Permissions take long?

---

How long does fix permissions take to run in rom manager? Just flashed sky ice 4.2f and someone said to run fix permissions and its said just that for 30 min now.

I have about 50 apps and it takes about 1 minute and a bit.

It just says fixing permissions and I let it set like that for over a hour. I just backed out guess its not working.

Make sure you have busy box installed!

I ditched rom manager a long time ago. Use recovery to fix permissions:thumbup:

thought that method didnt work plus sean specifically states to use rom manager and since its seans rom he should follow seans op.

the problem the op is having is he doesnt have busybox properly installed

I followed the steps, I installed busybox when I was supposed too.

Use whichever you like. There's more than one way to skin a cat

what is rm doing for 30min, what was its last message, open su and clear the apps it has listed, try updating/clear caches of rm, reinstall busybox, if all else fails, read my sig and start over
