I may just be missing something obvious, and I've tried a little searching on the forums as well....here goes.
I'm trying to get at the / directory on my g tablet. Whenever I connect my g tablet up to my computer, and turn on USB storage mode in vegan 5.1, I can only see what appears to be the /mnt/sdcard/ directory. I want to be able to edit files in my /system directory but I can't see it.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. What the heck am I doing wrong.

you won't be able to access anything other than the sdcard directory via USB.
You will either need to access the files directly on the tab (and even that will likely require a root enabled file manager like RootExplorer)
Or you need to get comfortable with ADB. Using ADB you can push & pull files from the other partitions.
Thanks.
I was able to edit the file I needed by using a combination of terminal editor and es file explorer. Thanks.
Dear all,
Good day.
I would like to ask,can I access phone memory (HTC aria A6380)
on pc?
It was because I accidentally move a script file "sh"
from my /system/bin folder to my sd card.
Now I would like to cut back the file and paste it back to the original folder which in system file...
But,without the "sh" file in /system/bin/ folder,the root explore .apk can't work
So,I would need some expert advise...
You could just re-flash you rom.
Yes you can. You need to use the 'adb' tool. Download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=630611&stc=1&d=1308537076 and extract it to a folder, then open a command line to that folder.
Connect your phone, and make sure USB debugging is enabled. Copy the file from your SD card to your computer. If you do not have S-OFF, you need to go to Clockworkmod recovery on your device before this will work.
From the command line, do adb devices to see if the phone is connected properly. Then do adb remount to mount the system partition as writable. Then do adb push C:\path\to\filename /system/bin/filename to copy the file. Then just disconnect and reboot the phone.

Yes. BUT... make sure you aren't removing a vital app, aka settings.apk.

How can i connect to my phone via USB with ADB?
I want to push/pull and edit some files from the system partition and a root acess file manager wont let me edit the file for some reason so i want to try and do it with ADB
Cheers!
Hello,
Does anyone know how create a very simple "updater.zip" file that does nothing except run the "set_perm_recursive" function and set the "/storage/sdcard0/DCIM" folder and all files/folders under it to 777?
I recently screwed up my wife's phone trying to install an app, and didn't have a backup. Now it is stuck on the bootup image screen and won't finish booting up. I am trying to download her photos.
I connected using ADB pull, but since I don't have root on the phone... I don't have permissions to access the /storage/sdcard0/DCIM folder.
So I thought it might be possible to create a simple "updater.zip" script that I can run from the recovery screen, which would give world read/write permissions to the /storage/sdcard0/DCIM folder. Then I can use ADB pull to get a copy of all her pictures to my computer.
Thanks for any help!
