[HOWTO] Installing Superuser/busybox for Mac

[JebyDroid]

Something must be wrong with your image. This issue usually happens if you've messed with su already (the one that comes built in) and either changed its permissions or removed it. You'll need to grab the latest OTA zip and flash it via recovery.

Thank you, I've only installed the CWM :angel: maybe is that one!

Hello!

What is the root (su) password for ouya? ALPINE pass is not working

I at random received an ota (same as what I already had) downloaded and installed. Rebooted and lost root.

What do I need to do to regain root? Same process or something different since these files have already been pushed and installed once?

This question was asked and answered starting with post 17.

I would just do one click now.

Now we will install su binary, superuser and busybox

./adb push su/system/bin/su /sdcard/su
./adb shell
su
cat /sdcard/su > /system/xbin/su
ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
exit
exit
./adb install com.koushikdutta.superuser.apk
./adb install stericson.busybox.apk

On "
./adb push su/system/bin/su /sdcard/su" it is Not Found.

I can do the first part of the instructions and open adb shell.

every time i enter the command 'su' i get permission denied...
