I want to know that can we mount system files from sdcard?
I used to do on my old phone ( moto rokr e6 ) so if i want to change any boot anim i just write a script.
It would be nice to see mounting on android.

Go to the file on your sd, long press and select either copy or move. Go to system and hit paste..
What are you trying to move?

What is md5sum??
http://154.ca/otr/iso/md5sum.shtml
Md5mismatch occurs when md5sum of files does not match the value stored in nandroid.md5.
I created this script because my backups gets corrupted often..
Instructions
Rename md5fix.sh.txt to md5fix.sh
Place md5fix.sh in root of your sdcard
Run it using script manger
Done
Disclaimer
Do it at your own risk
MD5 mismatch means the file has been altered. You have been warned.
greetings lj
Or you can make a blank text document and rename to nandroid.md5 (0 byte)
This way CWM bypasses md5 check and restore your backups immediately

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 have tried a lot of custom Roms. I'm on Neat ROM Lite now. Not sure which ROM changed my file access permission settings to cause this problem but I'm not able to delete any files from my external memory card. I was able to delete when I was on stock rom. The other problem is for a few apps I get an error message which says can't install on usb/sd card. I have posted this in another thread
some time back but got no response. Some one please point me in the right direction.
This is what my file permission looks like.
PS: I am able to delete when my fone is connected to PC via USB. So I don't think it has anything to do with a faulty sd card.

download mobile terminal from playstore
Hey I know its been quite sometime now.but as ur advice I downloaded mobile terminal and now have to run the following command everytime I boot my fone:
mount -o rw,remount -t/yaffs2 /storage/extSdCard
Otherwise i do not get rw access to my external sd.Istn't there a permanent solution to this? Also I fail to understand what changed my permissions and why does this persist across all the new roms I flash?

Create a blank file and type that command in it. Now save it and rename it to 95mountsd with no extension
Now, if you have init.d support, place it in /system/etc/init.d and reboot
Command will run on every boot itself
Thank you, it worked. Now could please have a look at my other issue, in this post I'd be really thankful.
Can you please tell me what could be the reason for my default rw settings to change, coz I remember when I had stock os I never had to do all this.

Sorry, i'm not good at hardware stuff
Maybe the ROMs aren't mounting that special kind of partition your sdcard is having
FAT32 format works universally
yaffs2 may not
I'm not sure

Get Rom toolbox and go to the interface section and click on fonts. Now click Local fonts. Now you want to find the font you want on your SD card and install them in a click. So Simple. Much Easy. Fast. Such amazement. Wow. (Doge meme hahaha)

Go to twrp, mount system, go-to inbuilt file manager and chmod 755 the system folder and reboot, or Dirty flash the firmware will do the job.
Next time, do nand-backup before perform sny changes to system. or would be better don't messed up with root partition.

Boot into TWRP (you said you have it installed), and you have to MOUNT SYSTEM first, or it'll just show you an empty folder without file.

Just boot into twrp, you'll see mount menu as soon as you enter the twrp recovery. Enter mount and check system.
