I tried every thing I could find on google.
I couldnt manage to copy brut maps over to system/app folder.
I used emulator and adb . But it keeps saying no acess or somethingæ
I used «whoami» it said root but still I couldent do anything
Even tried rooy exploret too no luck
Any one know what to do?
I have this problem too. The problem is not the ROM, it's the kernel (insecure kernels let you do whatever you want anytime). You are blocked from the system partition by default from the PC side; if you want to copy something to the system partition the easiest way to do so is to copy it to your SD card then transfer it over on your phone with a root filesystem manager.

I am trying to install a custom boot animation.
It says to put default.xml in system/customize/CID
I tried to do this with a root explorer but it said copy failed and I cant delete the default xml that is already there. Is it because it is being used? How would I do it with the phone off?
I dont understand how.
You could just flash one. Use bootscoot2, there's a thread in development.

generally, the system is normally mounted in read only at boot. before making any changes to the system partition you'll need to mount the system in read/write mode. there is an app in the market by a senior xda moderator which helps with mounting the system as read/write called remount.
if, for some reason, you aren't able to modify the file because it is in use, then putting the phone in recovery mode, will be the next best way to access the /system partition with read/write access and not have any of the /system files be in use.
loading update.zip files where people have packaged up modifications in recovery mode, generally work well because recovery mode runs as root and there is the guarantee the recovery mode does not rely on and does not use any /system files.
hope that helps!
Hi all.
I'm trying to copy some files to the system partition after enabling write on read-only partitions and remounting it and everything is success, but when I restart the phone, files get deleted and partition back to original. I tried ES file explore and Total Commander.

Hmm.. seems like a hard question!

Hey,
no not a hard question but a bit confusing
So the copy to system works without probs?
Do u have root-enabled on it?
U can try Solid explorer once, too, to be sure.
CHEERS
I enabled root explorer and I mounted the file system to be writable, yes I have a rooted phone.
I can copy to system root folders anything (media files), the files stay there until I reboot the phone then they disappear, they get deleted maybe? how to disable that?
Thanks

That listen like u have to save changes?!
Pls try the Solid explorer (for me the best explorer ever)
Copy files and have a look for root-acces request (should be asked for Solid, if it's new)
The copy/replace the file.
CHEERS
Thanks Hannibal for reply, I got no luck on doing it, they still get removed after reboot. Is there a way to flash these files that I want to copy to system as an update.zip?

Sure there's a way, but I can't help u with it, sorry.
With new Titanium Backup u can create flashable .zips but for sure only from isntalled apps.
Maybe u have a look at google. I remind for a tool which u just say what u wanna flash an it creates the flashable .zip.
Much success....
CHEERS
Edit: Sorry but couldn't answer u yesterday.
XDA had a prob for a while
I need a help,
I installed cm10.1. had problem with flashdisk adapter (cant mount external usb drive), so i back to ics
the problem now is, the /sdcard folder-name had changed into /Root
it should not be a problem until I managed to root it, only /sdcard folder known by system, so I cant install root
it might have another problems in the future
what should I do ?
Ok, i really need a help here
so, I installed cm10.1,
i flashed recovery.tar.md5, bootloader and the ROM
everything is ok except USB connection (at that time, i didnt know about check-box mtp connection), so i managed to back to ICS
i flashed older recovery.tar.mds which i have in the same folder as my ics rom (this is my big mistake), i was thinking that recovery and rom are pair. I dont know if i flash ics rom, it also have recovery inside it. after i flashed recovery.tar.md5, the folder /sdcard is not recognized by cmw although it is there. then everything is going wrong, it cant access /sdcard/Android/obb file (some games need to download to this folder and it always failed, even if i copied manually to obb folder, still cant)
what i need is, how to fix the /sdcard folder, it is there, it just dont recognized by system
and now im back to cm10.1 again, the folder /sdcard doesnt have 0 folder, i tried to make a 0 folder but it doesnt help
now i cant install anything that need /sdcard/Android/obb
how can i flash / format / reinstall everything just like a new one ?
sorry about my poor english
Maybe you should start all over again by using odin to flash back to official ICS. You will lose root, but then some of those things may be corrected and when you are sure everything is working well, you can then root again before attempting the cm 10.1.
Best of luck.
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
I did flash ICS stock rom, even with stock honeycomb none is work
i have a feeling its just about a syntax like mount /mnt/sdcard /sdcard or something like that
i just dont know what to modify and where is the script's located
i dont understand ubuntu, im just a beginner linux user
poor me
Hi, I am novice as in this forum and as a new user android phone SGS3-I9300. I have some questions on you, on some experienced users. I root my phone with (CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300 with included SuperSu 2.0 from Odin 3.09) then flash my recovery with (CWM 6.0.6.4 from Rom Manager app) and after I install custom Rom from (CWM recovery - cm-11-20140712-NIGHTLY-i9300) and i have some couple questions. Where is installed recovery becouse i think its like as bios on pc, but on pc is bios on separated chip and system on disk, is recovery on same place as android system, I think on Phone internal SD ? Because I have another question, when I open file manager on CM and open tho root "/" I have lot of folders there, some i can format / wipe from CWM, but some are still there and I dont know if I can delete him or I cant, and if I can then how? I want clean whole root if it is possible. Thank you.
Noone can help me with this ? I want only know what can i delete and what i cant. Under text you can find my root folders and files.
Bump..
no you cant delete the files and the folders on your root directory unless you intend to crash your device.
Hi,
I'm rooted yet cannot mount system folders as r/w. I am definitely rooted (confirmed by using su command in terminal and the fact apps that require root are working) and noticed this issue when trying to install busybox pro.
It warned me that there was an existing busybox in /sbin and would remove it before trying to install in system/xbin but the installation failed.
I tried to remove busybox from /sbin but the folder would not mount as r/w in root explorer OR solid explorer.
I managed to remove the file in TWRP recovery though.
Weirdly, I've been using titanium backup to uninstall system apps without any issues.
How can I fix this? Repair permissions int wrp?
I presume you followed the same instructions as I. I am on the 621 and currently have the same issue (also rooted). But on my end it is actually worse. I cannot mount the system partition in TWRP either (I mean I can mount it but when I try to delete or move a file I get error messages), and something happened to my download manager (which basically means that for the time being I cannot download apps from Google Play or from the internet, etc). I have a good download manager apk, but when I try to install it it asks me if I want to update the existing app, and the operation fails - I have to try and find a 3rd party alternative for the time being). It is kind of a problem.
(to update, I have very limited r/w permissions in TWRP. If I get lucky I can make small changes.)

I don't think so. I tried this, and I eventually was able to view/attempt to edit file permissions inside of X-plore file explorer (don't know if it is a coincidence, but I first had that success opening X-plore in 'mount system r/w' mode after changing the i/o scheduler to cfq). Anyways, it consistently shows all 755/644 permissions, so the permissions are not being re-written upon boot from what I can gather. But if I try to edit permissions or copy files to System folders, I still got error messages to the effect of "you cannot do this,' even though it is a root file explorer and the system partition is purportedly mounted as r/w.
Try flashing this in recovery: SonyRICDefeat by dosomder.

Thank you for this. Has anyone ever tried this on the Z3TC? Mine is running smoothly enough such that I am reluctant to fix what isn't broken. It seems that early issues I had with freezes, TWRP, etc, probably had to do with my SD card and the Android media scanner.
I've tried it on the Z3TC SGP621. Thus the recommendation.

I have the exact issue in lollipop and I have tried flashing RICDefeat and I get errors.
Sorry for the Hijack :/
Use my RICDefeat from here and run it from terminal. Works only if you are rooted. Afterwards you should have r/w access.
