You would have to use ADB commands to mount the /system and push the files over, then change permissions and reboot. Often times, this is much easier just using a file manager app on the phone with SuperUser / root permissions like Root Explorer or ES File Manager, or if there is a custom recovery, then you can use that to install files to the /system easier.

Hello i have an xperia tablet s i need to change bootanimation but without root
is that possible?
i searched a lot and most of people said that this is not possible, only few said that this can be done but hasn't said how to do that?
i tried to adb push but it said read only file system
so if anyone knows how , please say it in details.
the xperia tablet has an ics and is purchased from other country and it isn't supported yet in my country so i can't root.
thanks
It's impossible without root.
It's impossible without root.
Modify the folder /system/media requires root beacuse in stock is read-only.
You should mount the system as rw and try. Not sure if that needs root too.

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 ?

Hey,
I can't copy things from my Ext SD to my internal. Root explorer says the system is copyrighted but i rooted my phone?
Xperia SOla stock rom Rooted .54 ?
I already tried to it again with SU but it doesn't work neither... :crying:
Open superuser and update the binaries if it asks.
How did you root? I assume after you did superuser did appear in the app drawer?

Okay, it doesn't ask for anything when I'm opening it. I try to re-install it...
I rooted with B4nary's Root with Restore. Before a half year it worked fine with that but then I had to reflash everything
EDIT: Okay, now SuperUser doesn't ask for anything....

yeah thx, it works now, but I can't change my build.prop ? I want to change it with the battery tweaked one, but there comes an error. "Permission denied"
Do i have to make /system from RO to RW or what ?
Rw for both options

Such a question.
There is an application, you need to copy from my RAW folder / system on the phone and reboot it. I am a novice, and questions are:
How to get SU? How to mount (and whether it is necessary) folder / system? How to hold up?
Do not judge me, I'm from Ukraine and my English is bad...

There are programmers? Does not interest me how to do it by hand. I need a sample code in Java. ORDER THIS, UNDERSTAND??? I'm an advanced user Android, porting firmware, writing programs, and so on. I need an answer programmer!

SU - superuser > this is the root management app !
when you root your phone,you will find this in your phone !
and if you deleted it you can get it from playstore !
next I didn't understand whether you needed to copy an app from /system/app or copy to /system/app
anyway I will answer both >
no need to mount /system for these functions .
root your phone,
then download any root browser,
then if you want to copy an app from /system/app then just copy it and paste it in your sd card etc (no reboot required).
OR if you want to copy an app to /system/app then copy the app from whereever you have stored it and paste it in /system/app and set permissions as rw-,r--,r-- and then reboot !

No. I am writing a program. How to do it by hand or through the Recovery I know. It means you need Java!
You must root your device if u want to mod your system... cause if u dont have superuser user access, impossible to mod your /system... default set in system is r/o if you want to modding you must set system to r/w

My XZU kitkat 4.4.4 .108 have rooted. Stock rom. I want to set Ext SDcard for Titanium Backup. But I can't access permission (etc/permissions/platform.xml) to change to writeable. I have tried Root Browser, Root Explorer, Solid Explorer and ES File Explorer. All no luck.
It pop up error ***operation failed message: cannot write to filesystem. Mount as read/write has failed***
But I have success to my rooted TabPro 8.4 SMT-325. Kitkat 4.4.2 with Solid Explorer or Root Explorer.
Another problem is I can't install busybox.
Any help or input
Thanks
Hi there,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by

Did you install nut's dual recovery by chance? It has busybox included and if you try to install another busybox it screws up root. For SD card try this app, if you are still rooted and have superuser installed properly it should work.

What's nut's dual recovery?
I did try SDFix already, it doesn't work to me.
The purpose I need access permission is modify platform.xml for Titanium backup and mixer_paths.xml for volume boost headphone.
I heard about a custom rom can access permission mostly, is it true? If yes, I might try flash to custom rom.

If SD card fix doesn't work and gives you an error message. You don't have true root access.
I know because I faced this issue about a month ago, I was able to get superuser access just not edit files I know because I tried to edit the platform as well, so re-root your phone and install the dual recovery (optional?) if you make it that far, run kk fix it should work.
The volume boost is meh, you're better with viper4android

The root checker show **device have rooted**
I used Easyroot. Does your meaning use easyroot to re-root the phone again? Or get another tool? Any rooting tool suggestion.
Should I unroot from supersu before re-root?
Yes I know that.. Like I said I had the same issue, you may have root access but you don't have true root, so re-root your phone. It will fix the issue.
So again re root your phone.
And for me I did not uproot I just ran the root exploit and overwrited the old su
Great! I'll try to root again tonight.
BTW, is your device is XZU and root by Easyroot.
Thanks
Nah I have galaxy s2 but posting in xzu section. Yes I have Xperia Z ultra. And yes I did the easy Xperia root, plus I have dual recovery
IT WORK !
As you said re-root device again. Access permission available and Titanium backup to extsd.
Thanks all you guys input.
Zomg don't forget to thank me, hit the thanks button. *sarcasm
