The OP7T Pro UI sounds are located @ : Root --> Product --> Media --> Audio --> UI.
Is there anyway I change or replace these? I have tried (via Solid Explorer & SD Maid; I'm rooted & granted these 2 apps superuser/ root access in Magisk) but there seems to be a permissions issue which prevents me making any changes to the UI folder contents.
When I have tried to change the file or folder permission attributes (currently -rw-r-r-) it does not succeed.
Any help/ advice please?

Could try root explorer might work
I've tried Solid Explorer Pro/ ES file explorer/ SD maid/ X-plore/ Root explorer Pro - same problem.
Even though I'm rooted - it seems that I can access Root only for viewing. I cannot edit or modify any of the Root files or folders despite changing the permission attributes. They all default back to -rw-r-r- (mode 644)
Is this expected given the Android 10 partitions issue, or is there a solution/ workaround I have missed?

Try building a magisk module maybe?
Beyond me I'm afraid!
Perhaps you can show how to do it?

What's the best file manager with root enabled? (possibly free )
Sent from my MB525
for me is file expert
File Expert does the job for me
I like Astro. It has all the usual tools of any file manager, and it remembers the settings of each folder like windows explorer in PC.
No root mode for both of them or do I need glasses?
Sent from my MB525
Ooops sorry FE doesn't have root access as yet.
You can probably manually give Astro root permissions, but it does not ask for them by itself. Instead, it just states 'insufficient permissions'.
I myself prefer Root Explorer. It's basic, but because of that, not cluttered with features I do not need in a file manager.
I've been using Super Manager.
The free version gives you root explorer capabilities, including R/W.
Some features are locked down unless you pay, such as the ability to directly open/edit files in the root explorer function but a quick'n'dirty workaround is to copy the file in question to the SD card, edit it to your hearts content and paste it back over the original.
Same as above - super manager seems ok

I've just started using super manager as i needed to instal apps to the system/app file and couldn't do it with File Expert. Quite like SM now and it does what i need.
Root explorer is great! I use the paid version for all my tasks, but I will try super manager as it seems to have many followers!
i also use root explorer, try the free version, i went for the paid one. it's very easy too use
I have tried out a couple(ES, FE Astro) but I really like Super Manager after having used it.
The amount of options and tweaks and the free root access combined with a solid ui makes it an easy choice for me.
For those that dont know.
ES File Explorer (free) works just fine with root. Here is a trick. I just stumbled upon it while trying to mess with it.
Settings -> Home Directory
change home directory to be "\" instead of "\sdcard\"...
waaalaa, it's there....i was able to edit a file, didnt try saving it.
give it a shot and let us know..

If you tried saving it, you'd have seen ESFE pop up an error message. Its root capabilities only work on a couple of custom ROMs.
the best file manager is the ADB shell
but super manager is OK too.
Okay, I had this problem, that I can't create a new folder without root. It worked fine after flashing fserve v18a cfs kernel , it still can create a folder, but after a reboot, I can't create a folder nor rename anymore, but I can move and delete a file and folder.
I tried installing and using root explorer, it worked, but after uninstalling it I can't create a folder anymore. I am using the default one in cm7, astro file manager does not work either.
I checked the owner and group of sdcard under root explorer, it says both 0-root. I can select other options like system.
So can anybody use root explorer and check their sdcard owners? Or have another solution?
Thanks in advanced
EDIT## tried changing owners and groups but root explorer crashed
EDIT2### used file expert and I saw file permissions for owner not tick(read and write), but root explorer is ticked. File expert can't change the permissions and root explorer FCs.

have you tried ES File Manager?
Will someone please help me get root access with ES File Explorer?
I was looking for a good file explorer utility with a root explorer feature. I already had ES File Explorer installed and saw that it supposedly has a root explorer feature. Well, I've searched all through it and I must be missing something because I can't find any way to explore anything on my NT except for the sd card.
I've went into the settings, down to the Root settings and checked Root Explorer and Mount File System but this hasn't seemed to help. I see no way to "get to" the root directory. If I try using the up arrow to move up a level in the directory tree, I can't get up any further than the sd card. It just say press again to close.
What am I missing?
Thanks to anyone that may be able to help get to where I want to be.

In settings, and you need to set home directory as "/". Then you'll have access to the entire file system.
What tgraves said as I have complete access to my nook with Es File explorer.
duh! That was so easy. Now I really feel like an idiot.
I think my wife is right. Sometimes I can make even the simplest things seem soooo hard...
Thanks for your help guys.

Not a problem
I wanted to say thanks as well as I was wondering the same thing today, didn't think it would be so simple as just changing the home
ES File Explorer Root
Good tip.
Thanks
don't worry... this was a great thread to start because i just found it with google and was looking for this answer also!
whoot!
Tell your wife she's always right
Trust me...
If you don't want to change your home directory to '/', you hit favorites and hit the icon that looks like a phone. That should take you to '/'. I think that's what the icon looked like. Anyways it's in the favorites menu.

I had been looking for the exact same thing. Thanks for your help.
I have the little phone icon so I assume I'm in the root directory. Next question - since this is where the additional 12 GB of space is, is there a "best place" to put my files that I don't want to tote around on my sd card? We're talking music, docs, etc.
Also - Is there a method so I can see "/" when connected to my laptop? Would rather move files directly to the root directory than have to copy to sd card then copy/paste to "/"
I find root explorer to be better.

in the setting, tick all the boxes for "root settings" then from the "/" directory, you will be able to access the internal storage and others ( sd, 1gb space allowance)
What I meant was, is there any specific folder under "/" that I should put my own stuff in, or maybe create a new one?
B&N put all the reserved free space in '/data'. See this thread for workarounds. Accessing it via USB is another story, so you'll probably need to copy files to the 1gb partition then move it. Another option would be to use Wifi File Manager. Depending on the speeds you get via USB it may not be a bad alternative.
When using ES File Explorer to move music files from /data to /data/media it says "invalid path." When I tried moving it to a new folder I created under /data, it also failed.
Questions:
1. Is every folder under /data locked away from access thru ES File Explorer?
2. Is my only option to store content directly under /data?
Root the Access.

I have ES File Explorer installed and i want to install other font(.ttf). but when try to copy from sdcard and paste in '/system/font' folder, it shows an error : copy failed.

Have you enabled Root Explorer's "Mount R/W"?
Hi, i have a 64 Gb exFat sd card that works very well but the problem is writing and editing in it. With MiXplorer i can see all the files in it but if i try to copy and paste something for example, it says that i need to grant permissions and then the stock file manager appears. Unfortunately there is not an option for granting permissions in it but i can just looking inside the sd card and edit it...Anyone else had a similar problem? Honestly i don't want to change file manager. I've already tried to search for permissions in MiXplorer but is different from ES File Manager which i had better permissions' control. Thanks for any suggestion :highfive:
Install NextApp SDFix apk, run and follow instructions.
That solved every problem with sdcard permissions (specially the one in Titanium Backup).
SDFix link
It states that this is for kitkat but works with lollipop, as did on my version 5.0.2 build 180
Remember to restart phone after done.
Hello, folks,
I have a problem with my Nexus 5X (Android 7.1.2). I had rooted it with TWRP and Magisk, until last no problems. After an update to Magisk v18 two days ago, I found the problems.
I had an app that I installed as a system map. It was deleted after the update. If I now want to reinstall it (as in this manual), it won't work. I can create a folder in "system/app" and "system/priv-app" (or copy the APK there), but I can't do anything else. No renaming, no changing of permissions. Also it often happens that I cannot copy the file there because of missing permissions. This only works once after a restart. After a restart the copied file or folder will be deleted again and again.
I tried Solid Explorer, Root Explorer and ES File Manager. Link2SD also fails and cannot create the system app. SU permissions are on for all tested apps.
Does anyone have an idea what I should do? :-/
Regards

This is a normal problem for Magisk. To fix it do the following. Open Magisk manager's settings and turn on core only mode then reboot. Do your system stuff add/remove apps, set permissions, etc. Then turn off core only mode (or modules won't work) and reboot once more.
