How to be able to install and use any app on FP Open OS [meta discussion]

I’ve made a flashable ZIP to avoid the use of proprietary Root Explorer:


(GPL-v3, source)

Instructions:

  • Download ZIP to your FP2
  • (Recommended) Backup your system partition
  • Flash from the shipped TWRP, :slight_smile:
  • Reboot & rejoice
  • (Optional) Check with a tool like Root Verifier

Anyone can test this without busybox installed on the system? I’m not sure if the flashing script runs busybox from TWRP or from the system itself, I guess the former.
