After u replace the framework you need to wait for 5mins or more after boot animation.this waiting only takes place the first reboot after replaceing framwork.
i must waiting to mini power off (battery gone die) and repair sys via Seus because this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749438 option don't work in my x10 mini ;/
Seus Helped at this problem.

Before coping fw to its folder change its permissions to 644, then copy it to fw folder.

Make sure you set the proper permissions before moving the file into the framework folder.

Hello all
I need help
Unfortunately I have managed to damage my 2.1 rom. (i have replaced 2.1 framework-res.apk)
Now I cannot boot into it , problem is that I do not have a backup, so I cannot just easily "reburn" the firmware.
I have 2.2 ROM implemented. but I do not -know how to reach 2.1 system files from it. There is some chroot done in boot process imho .
Can anybody help me how to reach the files

If you're lucky it will mount your 2.1 system partition as /21system
Most likely it will say "Device or resource busy"... But worth trying anyway.

I had to think about remount
Going to try now ..
EDIT:
You are absolutelly right : Device or resource busy .
What should I try now ?
I found out that I can reach 2.1 system in adb , but my root do not work. so I cannot do anything to the system partition . Any ideas how to achieve root in this state ? On phone display there is still only firts sony ericsson logo ..

I did the same thing at least twice. I was able to save it without restoring by replacing my framework-res.apk before it rebooted or froze.
Basically, try to adb into it while it is still at the Sony logo or if you get the blackscreen after the logo.
One weird thing I did notice was that I was able to replace the framework-res.apk file apparently without using 'su'. After I killed it when I was doing adb at/after the logo I tried to 'su' but it gave some error and remained at the '$' prompt. I then did the 'dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk' command and it completed. Rebooted and it worked again.
Think my whole thing was tested second time with a script.
Try making a frameworkfix.cmd file and putting this in it.
@echo off
@echo.
@echo Installing Framework
@echo.
@adb shell su
@adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
@adb shell dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
The keep trying to run it while at the Sony logo. Give it a few runs before you give up, I swear it worked for me.

Heck just try the following from folder with your original framework.
adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
or
adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
thanks guys , but I do not need commands,
I know them already , I had permissions problem.
Instructions mentioned above did not worked for me
I've got permission denied
anyway thanks

You can access the 2.1 /system partition through 2.2 with adb.
Use this to unmount 2.2 /system
Code:
su
busybox umount /dev/block/loop1
You can check if all worked well this way:
Code:
busybox ls -1d /system/* | grep xbin
If it gives you anything, it's 2.1 -- if not, try
Code:
busybox umount -l /dev/block/loop1
Now, you should have the old 2.1 /system structure available. Ignore all errors appearing *on the phone* it'll be screwed up, unusable. Until a restart.
Now through adb you can overwrite your 2.1 framework apk with dd
(assuming you already have it on the sdcard, else, well, push it there (adb push framework.apk /mnt/sdcard/ )
Code:
dd if=/mnt/sdcard/framework.apk of=/system/framework/framework.apk
for remount system, just do
Code:
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
after you have the 2.1 system available.
I installed 2.2 to my nand (almost fully working) at one point this way =3
Or...
You can flash again just using system.bin and everything you had would be there.
;-)
You also will need loader.sin
I did this a couple of times and work for me; I only need to root again
Good luck!
PS: In the firmware folder, you need to leave ONLY this 2 files: System.sin and loader.sin. Backup and delete all other files like amss.sin, cache.sin, etc.
well thank you
This a good idea ..
Unfortunatelly I already reflashed the phone
Hope it will help to somebody in the future

Thought that would work, was going to do it with .003, but I guess the recovery tool will do that for us - now we see what Z has been working on - excellent news
Just curios. Any speed improvements when extracting the img files to nand and mount/run it from there ?
Even running from sdcard img files is a perfect backup solution by just copy the img files away from time to time. But of course r/w cycles of the card are increased --> less lifetime.
But otherwise running from images is nice, as you're able to mount them. (diskinternals linux reader but R-only)
Anyone knows a win32 prog to mount the img files r/w ?
I can't install xrecovery because my system folder is readonly
Is it possible to change permissions without having root explorer?
I tried
chmod 777 /system/bin/
but i get 'unable to chmod /system/bin/ Read-only file system'
thanks
are you trying that with root access?? (su)
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
(I'm pretty sure this should get your system folder into read write mode.. )
Kiwi
EDIT::
Or just use this (if you have a mini.. might be a version for pro too.. have a look around) Make sure you have busybox installed first! (like.. install it and then open the busybox app and click "install".. only then is busy box installed)

Thanks kiwiBratwurst
Yes i tried chmod from adb shell and a rooted phone
I have titanium installed so busybox should be installed too
I've seen a link to a free version of root explorer
I finally changed permissions and tried to install xrecovery apk but didn't work
I also tried to copy manually 3 files unzipped but didn't work
and after reboot system/bin is again readonly :-(
I think i have a problem with busybox but can not find in market

I'm trying to push files to /system via ADB. However I'm having problems (getting permission errors). I am running Eclipse 2.0.2, so yes, my phone is rooted, I have su and busybox.
Phone is connected to PC and is set as "USB Mass Storage".
USB Debugging is ON
Here is my CMD log:
Code:
C:\android-sdk\tools>adb remount
remount failed: Operation not permitted
I tried to remount and it failed
Code:
C:\android-sdk\tools>adb push C:\myfile.apk /system
failed to copy 'C:\myfile.apk' to
'/system/myfile.apk': Read-only file system
I tried to push, and got a READ-ONLY FILE SYSTEM error (keep this in mind)
Code:
C:\android-sdk\tools>adb shell
$ adb push C:\myfile.apk /system
adb push C:\myfile.apk /system
adb: permission denied
I try to push inside of ADB shell. Nothing again...
Code:
$ su
su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
# exit
exit
I go into SU and attempt to remount the /system
Code:
$ adb push C:\myfile.apk /system
adb push C:\myfile.apk /system
adb: permission denied
$ exit
exit
I go back up to ADB shell and try to push again... same error as before
Code:
C:\android-sdk\tools>adb push C:\myfile.apk /system
failed to copy 'C:\myfile.apk' to '/system/myfile.apk': Permission denied
I go back to the main command line and try to push again. This time I get PERMISSION DENIED. This error is different than before.
Any help on the matter?
I've read about ro.secure needing to be set to 1, but I need to edit the boot.img in order to do this, correct? Does that require an unlocked bootloader? Is root ADB even possible on the DX2.
Thanks!
I am no expert (don't even know if i know enough to b called a newb) but maybe try a root explorer. I use es file explorer because it's free. In settings check root explorer and mount file system. I received similar errors and this solved my problem.

I'm familiar with root explorer, it's easy. I'm wanting to be able to use ADB though. Your post made me try something new though. I plugged my phone into my PC, then went into root explorer and mounted everything as RW. But, still was unable to push via ADB. Thanks for the reply though
So, how can I get ADB working?

Make sure there are no spaces in the file path to your android-sdk folder. Can't say if this is your issue but its worth a shot as it has always caused weird problems with android development since day one.

Ro.secure is in your local.prop on the root of your phone. As far as your issue you have to reset permissions in order to push to /system. I saw that you were trying to do that but with no success. I believe I know what will help but I will have to find it and repost.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133528
Ok look at the command lines at the bottom of the op. You are going to use adb shell. Follow that almost exactly but adjust according to your directories. Should go into adb shell, gain su permissions, mount /system rw, push your apk, then don't worry about remounting as ro, just reboot. Pay close attention to spaces.

Took me a few days to be able to getting around to trying this, but it didn't work :/ I'm still getting all of the same errors. The /system just doesn't seem to want to mount as RW (even though it is possible when using root explorer).
As for ro.secure in my local.prop, I'm able to edit this but it resets on reboot because (from what I've read) this is a file generated by the kernel
Anyone else have ideas?

Thanks for that! It's not quite what I'm aiming to eventually do, but did give me more insight on how the whole adb/shell/su systems work. From inside of su, I was able to mount the /system as RW, however I'm only able to do this from inside of SU. I want to be able to do this from the initial CMD so that I can ADB PUSH from my computer to the phone.
Here's my latest log:

So now the question is, how do I mount as R/W so I can use ADB push?
Wes
Maybe its because im tired but im confused as to why it wont let you push your files if you have remounted as rw. At that point it should be cake. You gained access to system by remounting it as rw successfully already.

Try:
Code:
adb devices
adb remount
adb push [filename] [destination]
adb reboot
the "adb remount" remounts the fs RW instead of the default RO.
I'm no expert in ADB, but I had run into the same issue as you and for me the fix was to go into ADB SHELL , then type SU to get SU access, then type exit twice to get out of shell completely. Then I tried pushing the APK and it worked fine with no read only errors.
This worked for me on my SGS2, could work for you ! Goodluck !
Come to IRC and I can help you with this. http://webchat.freenode.net Come to the #cm7dx2 channel. I'm usually there... Look for the nick(s) Moon|Work|(something), Moon|Home|(something), or MoonShadow-NM. If the (something) says Busy, I might not answer right away.

Do this
Sbf to 2.3.4
(or 2.3.3& take one ota To get to 2.3.4...however you want to do it..just be bone stock 2.3.4 )
Root your device.
BUT DO NOT USE ZERGRUSH TO ROOT
Use petes Motorola one click root method.
Then continue the process as normal from there on out.
Trust me in this. Zergrush root method is not playing nice with your /system partition, (if you notice during the root process it might say something like "making room in system,"= or "moving/deleting app to make room" something similar)
And when it does that, it's messing up how the update checks for untouched stock apps.
Let me know how it goes.
This solution has worked for COUNTLESS others so far, zergrush has always been the culprit when it comes to failing to find certain apk or system file that needs to be there for the update to install.

This won't work with Eclipse since it's not using 2nd init. I asked this question in the Eclipse forums and Nitro responded with the following:
Not without using 2nd init. All of that works due to being able to load its own init.rc which starts services and passes parameters, etc.. during boot time. It is possible to make a stock rom use 2nd init. CM9 will not even have root enabled by default. The only other way to push stuff is to enable root shell prior to pushing.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I know that CM7 allows using the adb remount, but that's because it's using 2nd init. I had also asked the question about why CM7 defaults to root shell when you adb shell into it and that's why he mentions how CM9 won't have root enabled by default.
The way I push to Eclipse is to run root explorer on my phone and mount the directory r/w. Then, I can use "adb push" to the phone.

I think I may have tried that in one of my iterations. Originally I had it rooted with One-Click and then I was having issues with the 2.3.5 OTA update (quickoffice.apk) and at this point I've SBF'ed and rooted it probably 5 times this week so far. Rooted with both One-click and zergRush at various times. Actually I think every time except this last time has been with one-click. So I don't think that has seemed to make a difference for me so far. I can try it again, but if there's any other advice to throw out in the mean time, I'll take it.
Alternatively, I may take the new phone (the first replacement they sent had 2.3.5 on it, but a bad menu key causing the phone to flip out), load Titanium Backup on it, backup all the system apps and restore them to my original phone. Worst case is I have to SBF it again. But that seems like a logical process since I will have two phones available.
Hi guys
I need some serious help with my phone... i accidently edited build.prop and now my phone doesn't boot anymore.
I need to push a new build.prop file to my phone.. I can get into recovery mode on the phone and I've managed to pull build.prop from the phone but I cannot push it back due to "Permission Denied"
Does anyone know a adb command or application or something that can help me sort this out?
My phone is the Huawei Ascend P2

Android: ADB – Mount a filesystem read-write
Mount a filesystem read-write
Very often when you want to write files to a particular partition on ADP1, you will get a “Permission Denied” if the partition is mounted read-only.
To get around this, you need to mount the partition read-write. Typically this is done with /system partition
$adb shell
$ su
$mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block /mtdblock3 /system
(Replace /dev/block/mtdblock3 & /system with appropriate device path and mount point, as obtained from cat /proc/mounts)
This was the first result on Bing with the search terms "adb mount read write"

could you please provide some noobish info on how to get this done?
I don't know what "/dev/block" means, nor "mtdblock3" .. I know /system is the part with build.prop in though
Edit: device not found
adb devices
You see yours? Good
adb shell
mount
This may tell you or try
adb shell
cat /proc/partitions
Or maybe
ls -l -a /dev/block/platform
Then from here find chip and search this and so on and so and if you find a by-name directory your good

I think im just gonna have to take it back to 3 and wait 50 weeks to get it back
