Default [Q] Cannot install Busybox and cannot Remount in adb

For some reason even after using each subsequent one click root method, including the latest andromeda flasher, I cannot install Busybox. It says that the phone is either not nand unlocked or isn't rooted. I also cannot use remount in adb as it says it is not found. Any ideas as to why?

The only way I have found around this myself is to go back to stock kernel. Then install the Joey 2.2.4 root exploit install not the noobl kernel and then install the latest busy box .... and superuser

Try installing titanium backup, open it, hit problems and install busy box from there.

This seemed to install busybox inside of TiB so thats good. Also I already have superuser. Everything about the root seems to work ok however trying to remount in adb still is a no go.

Copy and paste your console here so we can take a look at it

How do I console? Sorry a bit of a nub when it comes to stuff like that.

That is to say, what exactly do you want to see? My cmd prompt or something on my phone?
