Hello,
I've rooted my z2 and flashed another Kernel etc.
but i've one problem which is really weird..
When I'm trying to make a screenshot, a message appears "Screenshot can't be taken - The content may be protected" ?!
When I'm trying to delete the Screenshot folder i get the message "permission denied" ?
I tried it with root explorer and adb shell with root.
And i also tried another ROM, same problem.
What can I do?
I really need this function
thank you
greets
no one? cmon guys
Does screen shot still work with something's? Might be because the app won't let you screen shot it. Apps like PayPal won't let you because of DRM restrictions. There are a couple of Xposed modules that may help with this. As for deleting the folder I've never run into this issue. Maybe try a different file explorer. I recommend ES File Explorer with root feature enabled. Or Aroma File Manager from XDA. A file explorer for recovery if TWRP doesn't have one.

Do you have Xposed installed? If yes, try the module "Disable flag secure", you can find it here. Hope this helps

Hi guys!
Could someone upload the original SamsungCamera.apk, please? Because when I'm tried to install HX Camera mod, i put the two files into a zip, when the Root Browser crashed. The two files were gone, and the zip became corrupt. After this, i put the mod to system\app. On the first run, it worked, but after a while it crashed. I run the camera again and it crashed after a time, again, and again. So I decided to try the video. And now it doesn't even want to start. So that's why i request the stock camera, and please upload as soon as possible. Thanks.

So, I downloaded this app and I've moved it to /system/app folder and I've tried to install it and it simply says "not installed". I've been searching the net for days now. I've done the following.
1. Root access for Apps and ADB
2. I deleted the CN 9 mod camera app in the /system/app folder (Is there something else that I need to delete?)
3. Installed Busy Box, Astro, ES File Explorer and Easy Installer
4. I successfully installed other stock apps such as S Voice.
I've found similar questions on the net, but no answer. Please help me out!
Set permissions to read write execute / read /read usint root explorer.
Reboot in recovery , wipe cache and dalvik.
Reboot.
That should do the trick

Thanks but no dice. I narrowed it down to few possible reasons, all of which I would need help with.
1. Even though, my options say that I'm rooted for "Apps and ADB", I don't think I'm "Fully rooted" as Android Commander still says "no root".
2. I don't have the right drivers. I was told that the "service drivers" are different than the normal USB drivers I get when I plug in my phone and maybe that's why Android Commander might not fully recognize my phone.
3. Permissions. I keep reading about read/write permissions, but maybe the options that I'm looking at is not the same "R/W" in question. I don't know.
4. Everything is correct and I just don't know what I'm doing
So, I realized that the app is a "read only" apk and it wont let me change it's permission in Root Explorer. Is there a way that I can change it? Or does anyone have another SG3 camera apk?
So, after extensive research, it has been reported that particular app doesn't work on custom roms.

U can change it actually in root explorer. At the top right there's R/O, click it so it'll be R/W.. from there u can change its permission. I know this is pretty obvious, but this may help u out. cheers!

So i have finally rooted my phone through CF Auto root method, and im happy i can access anything on the phone.
first thing i wanted to do is get rid of the samsung Keyboard, as it got stuck to being default after every restart.
So got into /system/apps/samsungIME.apk and removed it. I use ES file explorer with root access.
Job done, now i have the smart keyboard pro on and happy with it
Lets say i want to reinstall the SamsungIME.apk
reinstalling it is not a go im afraid. If i try to reinstall it from my ext.Sdcard, it says installation failed
If i copy and paste it in the same folder, it says: parsing error, unable to extract or something.
So my question following quite a bit of search is : in general, when trying to reinstall samsung apps, will this occur all the time?
Do i have to do something in addition to get it to work?
i saw someone mention in a different thread (I9100 i think) about chaning something in the build prop which i couldnt find anyway, and others talking about permissions
With ESfile explorer, i havent found the 'permissions' aspect of things, as all i have to do is allow ES to enter the root explorer through SU and then i dont get any other question about allowing permsissions to save/install and application.
many thanks and please excuse me if my questions are very childish for experiences users, as this is the first time i have entered this field!

Reinstalling ANY SYSTEM APK would mean that you would have to push it to the system. Here is a YouTube video on how to do it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJGbiSkom9M
If you are interested to download again the stock app, I have uploaded all the stock apps in mediafire. check my sig if you are interested
Many thanks. Will check asap!

Looking at the video, es file explorer does something similar, but it hasnr worked. Does this mean I have to buy the root explorer software?
Edit: I just downloaded root explorer and saved the apk according to the info. Keyboard hasn't installed though. I wonder if I have to tranfer the obex file as well
Edit 2: transfered the obex file as well, still didn't install. I can see the apk in there but its not installing.
And to finish this, I did excactly the same with the obex file and it worked. My samsung keyboard is back so again
MANY THANKS!

ES file explorer isn't mounting system as writeable. Can't copy any file to system or change any files within system using the apps root explorer. Anyone else have this issue? Anyone know a solution?
Please dont suggest using another app. I have tried that and they do work. I just prefer ES.
Sent from my SCH-I545
I had the same issue, and ended up buying Root Explorer. No idea why. I couldn't even find the option to make it writeable like I used to be able to.
..
thanx for chart
I noticed this too. Has anyone tried previous the version to see if that makes a difference?
Update: I tried the older version and it tries to run a test which fails, resulting in not being able to use that feature. I would assume the same test is failing in the new version.

Not sure, but maybe related to OP's issue: after rooting, using ES File Explorer version 3.0.4 (dl'd from play store), I can't use the built in root explorer. After selecting "Root Explorer" from the menu, after a delay (appoximately 20 seconds) I get the "Sorry, test failed. This feature cannot run on your phone." message in the attached screenshot.
Interestingly, I was able to access ES's root explorer while still on the pre-release kernel, before flashing back to the stock kernel.
The new ES is a little different. Pull up the fast access menu and open the tools tab on the left. from there, tap on root explorer, mount R/W, then change the bubbles to RW. I had to do this to edit my build.prop so I assume this is what you're asking. Hope this helps!

I don't get any options for mount as R/W. I think I've seen that menu before so I know what you're talking about. But it doesn't show up on the S4. At least not for me.

So when you pull up the fast access menu and click root explorer under tools, you dont see mount R/W like in this picture?
Not at all. Just wiped app data and tried again and nothing. Just the test failed message.

I don't get that menu either. My test fails also.
same here. ES's new update sucks anyway. i've used ES since day one, and with the new update, every single time you wanna do root things you have to mount system....EVERY time. the old one would stay mounted. it's very annoying.
i started using root browser or something..the free one.
I was reading through some other posts on a different thread and I came to the understanding it may have to do with the file system format or kernel. I would test a kernel but not sure if I can easily get back to stock as I don't want to lose functionality. Can anyone else test a different kernel to see if that works?

I ran into this exact same problem with ES File Explorer. I thought it might have to do with using SuperSU, but I haven't been brave enough to downgrade to Superuser.
As with others, I've gotten very comfortable with Root Explorer. I now only use ES to copy between the local file system and Windows shares.

Also confirmed, once.
Now that I go back into the app a second time, it doesn't seem to ask SuperSU for permissions and /data (for example) is empty.
I'm still not 100% convinced I fully understand the new ES Explorer's root paradigm. In the old one I fell in love with, you enabled root with one simple checkbox and you had Root Explorer (kinda; I have both installed). In this latest major update, you have to pick Root from the side menu, after which you're prssented with a list of tools that I don't want/need. To browse as root, do I just hit Back to this helpful, unwanted list and start browsing? This is what I did during the first successful test of this test code, but it won't work a second time.

I find it annoying that every time I connect my S4 to my laptop, it connects as an Installer with a 13.5MB CD partition named "Verizon Mobile." Then after a few seconds, it finally connects as a Media device (MTP). Has anyone been able to skip the Verizon Mobile part? Thanks.

I found a couple different ways to disable to pop up, but it still has the 30 second or so delay before the MTP connects. The easiest one I found was rename or remove autorun.iso in / etc. folder. But like I said that doesnt make the MTP come any sooner. Hoping for a fix myself.

Yes for that method you do. But you can also disable the cd rom from inside windows device manager. Just have device manager pulled up, then attach usb cable, and when you see the Verizon cd rom show up in device manager right click and disable. This also will only prevent it from popping up, but there will still be a 30 second delay before MTP connects.
I deleted the drive letter of the Verizon Mobile partition from Disk Management. At least I wont see it on My Computer anymore...
Can someone please give me a hand? I think I'm missing something. I'm rooted and have ES File Explorer installed.
I open the app, tap menu, tap tools, tap Root Explorer then navigate to the System\Etc folder but can't for the life of me find where to mount the file system R/W. I've checked all the options I can find and still not available. I have granted root access to ES File Explorer with SuperSU and verified it in SuperSU
I'm also seeing a message several seconds after selecting Root Explorer that reads "Sorry, test failed. This feature cannot run on your phone."
TIA

I just checked and es file explorer is doing the same thing with me. Out of curiosity I tried the old style es file explorer and it also failed. Not sure why. It worked great on my S3. I use "root browser" on all my devices and love it. Theres a free version on the play store. And there use to be a way to get full free version from the dev here in xda.

Its a Verizon thing. I had the same issue when I had the Verizon S3. They could have at least set it up so that once you installed the Verizon programs that it would stop popping up, and allow instant access to the MTP. Im sure there is someway to edit a file or something that would bypass the 30 second delay.
Wish I had a verizon s4 so I could take a look at this. Im sure theres a way to fix the delay

I need something to ckeck if I have more kingroot in my device.I think there is a way to resolve my problem I believe
*Other problem:for which reason I can't see with file manager the system folder?My xbin is empty and I believe this could be one of my problem because aren't su file .At the moment I can't see this fold except by using my pc
*I can't see the apk kingroot also if I know that I have more of this application
I will send photos later.Thank for the attention
None?I'm sure that kingroot is not installed or because I've more apk of this application/ fragments or maybe the problem is not kingroot but something of my device.One time I was able to install it
*I want specify that I downloaded the application from a file manager while I installed kinroot always before the installation of this file manager
