the file system on internal SDcard is fuse
when i mount it as rw i can read and write to the SDcard
but i cannot change the permission at all
maybe there is a way to change the permission without change the filesystem
but i now the ext4 so i prefer to change to ext4
the question i how i can do that without lose data
thanks
Hi there!
Situation:
- A device on Android 4.1.1 *without Kernelsources*
- ro.secure set already to 0,
- superuser.apk and su in the correct places with correct permissions (tried version 2.4, 2.45 and also 0.96 for fun)
- Rootchecker tells "rooted", Titanium too
- id returns root(0):root(0)
- mount -o rw,remount /system returns permitted
After a lot of reading I think thats the new kernel which prevents /system mounted rw (before the last update it worked perfectly as it should).
Is it correct in your eyes that my options are:
- downgrade
- decompile the kernel somehow and patch the /system mounting
- ? your idea here ?
What else could make /system beeing protected?
I have a Pocophone F1. I'm trying to flash a rom, when I flash the zip file says "detected filesystem ext4 for / dev / block / bootdevice / by-name / system", I can not install any rom

Not sufficient information.
Please state what ROM are you on, what did you do (root, TWRP etc), by what method are you flashing, which ROM are you trying to flash etc etc.
If not apply two commands below before flashing magisk, phone will boot-loop:
echo KEEPVERITY=true>>/data/.magisk
echo KEEPFORCEENCRYPT=true>>/data/.magisk

But the modification in recovery is not effective.
In android system can't remount /system to r/w, the same with /.
And I can't found any qcom.fstab or other .fstab like file in boot.img.
PhoeniX kernel is working but can't enable wifi.

Any one can help me? Thanks~:crying:
I can't edit build prop ,i have rooted my device android 10 , i try to edit my build prop and it doesn't save any change , tried to change premission to rw using root explorer and terminal doesn't change
I tried build prop apk ,it says can't saving !!
What is the problem and how can i slove it!?
build.prop is in /system which is always read-only, probably protected by vbmeta, maybe FEC, possibly packed in super.
So, the question is, what do you actually want to do?
Do you want to change the file just for the fun of it or change a property for some reason?
How did you root your device? With Magisk or without?

I want to add line(persist.sys.clipboard.max_items=10)
I have rooted it by Magisk
You can just setprop persist.sys.clipboard.max_items 10
Can't you? One time should do it?

Thank you for your replay
Itjust to increasing the capacity of clipboard of gboard
No i can't add any thing to build prop
It does not save changes
Or doesn't accept to change the permission to read-write
Or even in. Build prop editor it shows error saving build prop
I don't know how to edit or what should i do or where is the problem
Code:
C:\>adb shell
$ su
# setprop persist.sys.clipboard.max_items 10
# getprop persist.sys.clipboard.max_items
10

I wouldn't know. You don't actually say anything about what it prints out.
build.prop is a file. You shouldn't care what's in there.
In any case, you haven't demonstrated that persist.sys.clipboard.max_items is actually in there.

Thank you and orry for the inconvenience
That's what show for me when I try to change the permission using root explorer :
Warning Permissions change was not successful . Please note that some file systems ( e.g. SD card ) do not allow permission changes .
When i try to add code and exit with save then reopen it doesn't change in build prop
And when i edit the file using buildprop editor :
Error Saving build prop
This is in terminal:
:/ $ su
:/ # mount -o rw,remount /system
mount: '/system' not in /proc/mounts
1|:/ #
I don't believe that I advised you to do anything with mounts.
Why don't you just try what I actually did advise?
@rab33h Magisk is a systemless root method. Renate has explained the reason(s) in post #2 already. any questions left?

No thank you
for systemless method to change build.prop entries you may interested in Magisk resetprop or more advanced MagiskHidePropsConf module.
the easiest way is to create a startup script yourself and place it in service.d
/data/adb/service.d/script.sh
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
resetprop ro.build.product dandelion
you can also control the behavior with -n and -p flags (refer to documentation)

Thank you very much
But sorry for this stupid question
In this situation of magisk
Can i change the permission by terminal or termux?
Using this command
mount -o rw,remount /system
first you need to understand /system is a directory inside system partition. the partition is mounted read-only, that has nothing to do with permissions. if you want to remount the partition read-write do it with it's proper mount point / (rootdir) and not with containing directory.
second, android doesn't allow modifications of system files, avb/dm-verity prevents that. you need to disable it in vbmeta partition first.
and third, the file system itself has deduplicated blocks + ro flag to prevent any rw mount attempts. if it is ext4 file system, you can unshare blocks (will expand memory) and remove the ro flag. for other file systems (erofs/f2fs) it needs recreation of the whole partition as ext4.
the usual method for modifying dynamic partitions is offline, means you create your own super.img with lpmake and flash it into device. there exist various helper scripts here to automate this.
it's absolutely possible to do this so you can remount rw afterwards.
but it will break OTA and is not worth the hassle. Magisk is a systemless root solution, system partition is not modified and remain completely stock.
if you want to add/delete/replace files in /system go with the time and use the proper Magisk systemless solution.
