Maybe I missed it in the post. Why aren't you using the already working GUI to setup wifi?

Hey guys
One of the things im working on atm, having a bit of trouble trying to get a sysctl.conf I am working on to be loaded at startup
I've managed to generate the file, edit what i want, gotten it into /etc, but therein lies the problem
when i try to run systl -p, it keeps telling me the following:
sysctl: error setting key <insert sysctl key here>: Permission Denied
How can i overcome this? As soon as ive finished the work on this file, I'll be happy to share it with everyone
so no ideas?
Do you have superuser permissions (su, command prompt #) ?
When trying with this:
-p
Load in sysctl settings from the file specified or /etc/sysctl.conf if none given.
Perhaps this helps ?
-e
Use this option to ignore errors about unknown keys.
I try running su from command prompt
after using adb shell, all i get after running su is this
Brief 5sec delay, and permission denied. Thats what i dont get, I've Rooted the phone using the guide on the forums and everything went to the letter
*Shrugs* I dunno, tried the -p, thats what gives me the error i get.

Look at your phone to allow Superuser permission after entering su in the terminal or command
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
had a bit more of a fish round the net to see if anyone else ham similar issues
seems i was able to find the eventual root cause of it, was /system/bin/sh was set to secure mode, so i downloaded root explorer and changed the permissions
now the only thing is, how do i actually get the sysctl.conf im working on to be loaded at start, when i turn the phone on?

Hmmm? Well, go and try it?
I tried... at first i thought it should work. As the file system and all are similar
It worked till the 'startbt' but when i entered 'bt' it said segmentation fault
So anyone can tell me please what i have done wrong ( I know the wrong thing is its not meant for Optimus but anything other than that?? ) or tell me how to make it work
Thank you
PS --> My First post on XDA
Ohk looks like something is missing.
do following
reboot your phone do startbt as usual...
after that us
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14006091&postcount=15
this script copy script to any location and run it.
sh debug.sh
output will be in /data/local/debug_log.txt
just copy paste the whole file here.
tips you can push the debug.sh file using adb push.
and simmilarly pull the log out using adb pull.
once you are done then post the debug log that can help in diagnostics.

two things.
1) reboot your phone and do startbt and bt again.
post all output here.
2) also segmentation fault could be coz of the busybox chrooting failure.
i hve busybox version 1.15.3

You really need a bigger screen size to get this working properly.
Hi,
Just done a factory reset and upgraded to r5 , this is a UK tablet, region changed to US and flashed. I then rooted using Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v13 . After several try I got it working, but I had to use a signed VPNfaker to accomplish this.
So now I want to use a VPN, before I used OpenVPN, this worked perfectly, now it fails to connect. I get the error - Running on Sony Tablet S (nbx03) Sony, Android API 15. Your image does not support the VPNService API, Sorry
I tried to use OpenVPN Connect , getting the error due to a know bug in this version of android it is not possible to gain permission to open a VPN Tunnel.
So last attempt using the built in L2tp/IPSec option, with this I just get a timeout error. No Connection.
So was it the rooting method damaged or changed something with VPN or is it this version US R5 ?
Anyone got VPN working on US R5 ?
OpenVPN is working fine on my tablet S with release 5. I use the apps 'OpenVPN Installer' and 'OpenVPN Settings' from Google Play...

That was the second option I tried. I enabled the VPN service, then selected the VPN I want to connect. It initiates the connection then stops after a second with no results in the log file. Did you try any of the other VPN apps that don't require root, OpenVPN Connect (I think US Market only) or OpenVPN for Android, this work really well on my Xperia S .
How did you root your Tablet ?
Did you do the incremental update or full install ?
I flashed the full update and basically used the same method like you. I also had to sign VpnFaker.apk for my Swiss tablet... I don't remember any issuses installing OpenVPN (OpenVPN Installerhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schaeuffelhut.android.openvpn.installer, OpenVPN Settingshttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schaeuffelhut.android.openvpn). Interestingly, no tun.ko module is required.
I quickly tried the apps you suggested and which don't require root. But they didn't work for me in a quick test.

Ok, so tried re-installing busybox, tun.ko, OpenVPN settings and OpenVPN installer however still it's not working. I am thinking the problem is deeper than this though. The built in VPN options L2TP/IPSec and PPTP are both failing to work. I just get a time out error. I have uploaded a section of the catlog if someone could have a look at it.
I am still stuck with this problem. I used AIO tool to setup boot loop protection and then re installed the full R5 on top of the old installation. I didn't do a factory reset though, I don't have the time to re install everything.
And still the problem persists.
I am unable to create any VPN
Anyone any ideas ?
ok. Factory Reset.
Factory Reset, reinstalled R5. Titanium Backup restore and still no VPN. I give up.
Sorry to hear that... for more information about the initiation process of your VPN, you could try to start the openvpn binary in a terminal as root with an increased verbosity level... just to see at which step the process actually fails

would that give me more or the same as a logcat ?
Could you give me a quick idea how to do this in terminal ?
Well, I am not an expert, but your logfile was just little use for me...
Steps for running openvpn in terminal:
Open terminal
Type 'su' to get root
Change to the directory with your profiles using 'cd PROFILEDIR'
Type 'openvpn' for getting all command line options
To start a connection type something like 'openvpn --config PROFILE.ovpn --verb 3 '
I couldn't test this with my connection because I haven't figured out how to pass my key for my certificate. But I think this is the way to go.

ok, will give this a try.
Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 (SM-T900), android 4.4.2 stock, rooted.
No any app can open a port (even higher 1024) . I'm getting errors like 'iptables: permission denied'. Root Check says device is rooted (and I can edit system files in Root Explorer). I tried 3 smb servers and 2 ssh servers. Everytime server starting it shows 'root permissions granted', but nothing.
Additionally I tried to add static route in terminal. It's appears in route table but not working.
To check is it realy iptables issue I need to (temporary) let non preveleged users edit iptables rules, but don't know how to do it. Can anybody help me?
Hello,
I need some help on rooting my minnowboard max turbot base on Android 5.1.1
I followed the Intel tutorial to root minnowboard max from here "https://01.org/android-ia/user-guides/rooting-android-ia-user-debug-builds-minnowboard-max"
I have an error "Binary su not found" when I copied it in /system/xbin.. So I moved it on /system/bin ; when I execute, Android finds the binary but does nothing.
here is the output :
[email protected]_max: su
1
[email protected]_max: (I was expecting a '#' here...)
Also when I try to update the binary with SuperSU, it tells me that "no binary found, it's a problem..."
If anyone can help me on this... I really don't know how to do it:crying:
Thank you all
