[Q] My phone won't mount as r/w. What do I do? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

My phone won't mount as r/w in the root filesystem. I'm trying to install the S-Voice apk by putting it in /system/app, but it won't let me. How do I fix this?

Have you tried to reboot your phone? Are you rooted? What rom are you using?

Yes to the first two. And I'm running TDJ's darkside rom from 5.12.12 based on the T-Mobile leak. It worked yesterday, I don't know why it wouldn't now

Okay.. I had this same problem and I can understand your.frustration.. the way I got around was fresh.installation of the rom am using and tried installation again...ics is just a different piece of system compared to gingerbread.. so you have to he very careful when installing apps
. Restoring back etc..so try fresh.installation.

Did you have a modded version? If so it might not work.. suggestion would be to go to data/app/vending.apk or phonesky.apk delete either one which ever you see and reboot phone and try to install again..

All you have to do is to change your mount from r/o to r/w. R/W = ReWrite.
Just like CD-Rs and CD-RWs.

Some actually like the more subtle and simple bootanimation. Clean and Simple the "Google Way"... None of that flashy bootani stuff.

I got the same thing when I flashed it. I pulled the PopupBrowser.apk from the zip and used Root Explorer to put it in the system/app folder then set permissions reboot and it works.
I have since removed them because they were not useful to me.
Never mind the below info. I found it on the play store and installed it. It works well. I should have googled first.
I know it says Tw Roms only but I thought I'd give it a go. I'm running Paranoid Android 2.22. I tried both flashing the zip through cwm, didn't work. Then extracted the apk's, put them in system/apps, set permissions, and..... no go. Ooh well. The video looked cool and I can't tell you how many times I've brought up system manager to go back and forth between two programs to copy numbers or other info.
Thanks for the heads up, man. Cool app. Anyone know if other programs that can do this same thing?
