Hello everyone!
I am trying to install the Vanilla Mms.apk I downloaded from this forum
I Am running VanillaRom from GrdLock.. So.. I have root
When I try to "adb remount" so I can push this file..
"adb remount operation not permitted" .. So I am unable to get to the "Push" command
Also tried using Astro File Manager .. -dr file permissions on the /system/app folder not letting me copy paste the Mms.apk file..
What Am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help
Do you have root explorer? Maybe you would have better luck with that. You could probably remove the one your rom comes with under /system/app and place the new .apk onto your sd and move it to /system/app. That's what I usually do when adb doesn't work for me.
I downloaded an awesome app called Ghost commander. It Required superuser rights and it was able to remount, copy to system/app. Then I remounted it & rebooted it, installed it, and it worked.

I have deleted new market to get back old market, and I followd this procedure:
Code:
Procedure to use
Make copy of both downloaded files in your SD card.
Mount system as RW and delete the files name “Vending.APK” and “MarketUpdater.APK” from /system/app by the help of file explorer/Root explorer app.
Also do it manually by deleting the folders com.android.vending and com.android.vending.updater in /data/data.
Now reboot the phone.
Now again mount your file system as RW by File explorer/Root explorer.
Now after it copy the downloaded file “updater.apk” in /system/app/ from SD card.
Reboot the phone again.
Again mount your file system as RW by the help of explorer apps after restart.
Copy the downloaded file “market.apk” in /system/app/ from SD card.
Reboot the phone again.
That’s all.
But now I can't run market anymore, after hard reset I have these mesage from:
(process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly
now I can't install any version of market, please help
i think u forgot to give proper permission to the file. those step also didnt mention about it. improper permission for any file in /system/app folder can even resulting to bootloop.
Also, to get back old market, just uninstall market updates, start the market, then when it can run immediately go to titanium backup to freeze market updater. In my experience even mounting correct permissions may not work for some provided market apks.
Thanks for your answer, i dolved the problem with flashing to 2.3.4

I want to update it and mine won't update. I'm using GingerReal v.1.3 and my baseband is S5830LUBKP7. I appreciate any comment on this matter.

Search xda for the market. It's in the themes and app section. Install in like a normal app.
@consegregate thanks for your help, I will search it
Am trying to fix the ES File Explorer Root access issues by following the steps posted by Joker Fuel in one of the TP forum.
I cant get to delete the current apk under /system/app using any of the File Explorers. How do i get this file deleted ? Any help.
This is what am trying to accomplish:
OK guys, for u guys that are having issues Using ES File Explorer Root permission.
The Root does not work while the app is in /system/app.
so to get it working, u must delete the com.estrongs.android.pop-1.apk
couple ways to do it. u can download a free file explorer off the market and delete the file under /system/app
---------------------------------
reboot your new BUTTAH
download ES from the market
If I am understanding what you want to do correctly you need to remount /system as read/write so you can remove the file.
There are many ways to do this. I like to use RomToolbox, available on the market. Once installed you can open up "Scripter" and there will be a couple of pre-defined scripts, one to remote System is Read/Write.
After you run that script you can jump to the Root browser, one button above, and delete what you need from the /system/app directory.
Remember to remount your /system as Read-Only using the other script, or reboot when your done. It is a bit dangerous to leave it as Read/Write. Better safe than sorry
Thanks. gonna give it a try !
Titanium Backup works on Buttah. Downloaded through market. Then I was able to pull ES through that. Then re-install through market. Now root access and mountable system.
I've got a cheap Chinese tablet (WM8850-MID) running Android 4.0.3 based on WonderMedia 8850 processor.
It's not rooted.
Here's what i found:
/system/xbin/su is present:
-rwsr-xr-x 1 0 0 68528 May 14 11:07 su
But I can't run su in a terminal:
su uid 10064 not allowed to su
Using adb.exe I have the same problem with uid 2000.
There is a script /system/etc/init.sh which is called a boot time, but If I modify and push it via adb it won't execute (lost execute permission)
adb reboot-bootloader does reboot the device, but it does not stay in bootloader mode and just go straight to Android.
I'm not sure where to go from here. Is there a way to root that device ?
Try ./adb root to run as root.
Use oneclickroot.

I forgot to mention "adb root" says I'm already root.
If I copy files with adb push, the owner is root, but If I use "adb shell" I'm user uid 2000.
This is a new tablet, but I'll give oneclick a try anyway. Thanks.
I've just tried SuperOneClick 2.3.1.0. It says it's already rooted because it can find /system/xbin/su, but I continued anyway. It can copy busybox (temp) but cannot change the permissions and it stops there.
Try resetting your tablet and if the su binary is stil there remove it. After resetting retry with superoneclick.

Thanks, but how do I delete it since I don't have the permissions? In case it's possible, is it safe to remove the su binary? I have no way to recover my firmware...
Use ./adb root to remove it because you will be root.After removing it reset your tablet to factory settings. It is safe because the su binary is not part of the os.
Then try rooting with oneclickroot.
Hope it works for you.
i also bought wm8850 tablet in china..can you teach me how to root in detailed its my first android device....i dont understand the other terms u are using....
Hi jallaine12gil,
I think that you should first try to root with oneclickroot. Post if it worked or not. Oneclickroot is a rooting program for android devices.
download the firmware. then find the android4.0.tgz file open it with 7zip, add the su file to system/bin folder and system/xbin manually.... then put the superuser.apk in the system/app folder then save changes.... then flash firmware from sdcard
if camera is in the top centre of the wm8850 tablet: in txt file
if camera is in top right of the wm8850 tablet: in txt file
download the firmware. then find the android4.0.tgz file open it with 7zip, add the su file to system/bin folder and system/xbin manually.... then put the superuser.apk in the system/app folder then save changes.... then flash firmware from sdcard

How to get adb working on the wm8850?
Hi, sorry to interject with something semi-unrelated, but how did you guys get adb working with the wm8850? I've added the vendor id to the ~/.android/adb_usb.ini on mac, but adb still can't find the device. I used 0x0ea0, is this what you guys used?
Any advice would be great!

Hi, friend
Sorry, how do you root??
hi guys,
i have a wetab, and recently i installed windows 8 on it, and it works so good
since 2 days i liked to try and see how will android be on it but i dont want to format the windows 8
therefor i made an sd card bootable with android 4.0.3 installed on it, it the the project android-x86
in all cases all went well, but i realise that it have superuser.apk , and yes the rom is rooted, BUT
you cant grant access for root, what i mean is
i can open the root explorer, go to system/app delete what ever i want it work, but when i want to change permission
for example i cant it say i must gain root, i open superuser make the response always allow, but no clue, keep denying
everything...and what i saw also in system/app that all the apps permission is set to rwxrwxrwx and it is odexed rom
tried to update superuser...the same story never worked. tried to replace the su and busybox in system/xbin, and superuser.apk in system/app,
and su in system/bin with the latest versions....it didnt boot up lol the android is no longer detected.....and there is noway to go to recovery since it has not.....
so when there is root how i can edit or manage or gain root access ???
and by the way in terminal command
adb shell
root
i got this # so root is available
Lol....no one ?
