--------------------------------------------------
Previously I had highlighted some negative remarks about Stephen\'s and Jared\'s Installers that I saw on XDA. I guess that was not fair. Their installers have been around for years. I had a negative experience with those long time ago that led me to create this app in the first place. But that is not the case anymore, both of them are awesome and support a lot of phones if not all. I recommend all readers to use their apps first and comeback if you find issues. The same also holds true the other way around. If somehow this installer sucked, please try theirs. Also do not forget to send bug reports to respective developers of the apps so that we can make our apps better. Please note that when you write reviews now on, please do not write anything negative about other apps and their developers. I apologize to Stephen and Jared for this, I should not have bashed your apps and hard work and I hope that my apology will be accepted.

About:
BusyBox: The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux
BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.
BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind

This busybox installer is maintained by me.
Why another busybox pro installer? Cos other installers and rooted phones sometimes come with not configured busybox and no links to commands. As a result rooted apps fail to work. So I created this installer. I hope that this will become the de-facto adfree and busybox pro installer.
Also +1 this app, give honest ratings and feedbacks to motivate me. For any issues, feel free to e-mail me.
