Sorry, I also downloaded Bootstrap (3.75?) Along with busy box and it wont boot intonthe boot strap menu. Boostrap has the installed status but it says its not active?
I presume you mean Safestrap... Not Bootstrap. Safestrap doesn't work with Lollipop.

Crapola. Sorry for mixing those two up. Is there another way then?
If you are unlocked (bootloader) then TWRP works fine. It is a true recovery, unlike SafeStrap which is a "kinda" recovery.

The bootloader unlock is easy but does require a "spare" external SD card (in the SD slot above the SIM slot) [2GB or higher] because it will be overwritten when you run the unlock. Once unlocked you can put your normal external SD card back.
