RO to RW?

Do you have Rooted tablet.?
Make sure su binaries are up to date. I do not think it matters but busy box update check might be a good idea while you are at it..

Rooted but superuser permission denied

I recently restored my data and now I'm seeing that anyway to fix this ?

What action gave you permission denied?
Having Superuser in the app drawer doesn't mean you are rooted. It maintains a database of who is allowed root permissions. The real root is implemented by the su binary in /system/xbin or /system/bin. Maybe that got reset or removed when you restored.
If you are running EG30, EG31, EK02, then re-run Option A in the Auto Root package.
How does one run this auto root package? Or do u mean just re root using a pc again?

It is in the first few sticky posts of the development section. It is also in my signature, but you might not be able to see that if you are using a mobile app for the forum.

Use Android terminal and type "su". See if it asks you for permissions (or changes the prompt to #). That will tell you if the problem is with su or something else.

Rooted but no permissions
Hi, all,
I have a similar problem. I've got an original Droid rooted with SuperOneClick 2.3.3 (at least when I run SOC, it says I'm rooted). I have installed Wireless Tethering and AdFree and when I try to start either of them, they are denied superuser permissions. I reran SuperOneClick and tried the Allow Non Market Apps button, but shell is denied permissions when I try that.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
I had that problem over the weekend trying a experimental kernel but once I flash a different kernel the problem went away. I'm using rogue kernel right now it's pretty sweet too. What kernel are you running?
From the official iPhone killer.
I haven't flashed any rom. I just wanted the ability to use non-market apps.
Kernel is listed as 2.6.32.9-g68eeef5 [email protected] #1
You may have to uninstall and start over. Did you use the Odin method?
From the official iPhone killer.
Thanks for the response. I'm afraid I have done that. I don't know the odin method, so pretty sure I didn't do that. I used superoneclick, following instructions here. (And the thing is, all was well until a few weeks ago; phone was rooted and I was able to tether wirelessly. This is a VZW phone, and I remember reading something about them limiting tethering ability. But I don't know why that would make superuser refuse all permissions.) One thing I notice is that there is reference to gingerbreak exploit in superoneclick description, but I don't see that exploit when I use superoneclick. The file doesn't show up in the exploits folder, either. (I have turned off antivirus for this.) Might that be it?
Fwiw, I found a fix for this: Install SuperOneClick v 1.7 with rageagainstthecage option checked. Did that, then ran the non-market apps box, reinstalled wireless tether, then restarted. Phone is rooted again and wireless tether works!
adb shell su mount : permission denied
to enter into su,
install superuser on your mobile, keep your screen unlock.
adb shell,
then type su
$ wil chenge to #
now do the superuser commands on command prompt

You're talking about rooting the old Motorola Droid. This forum is for the Samsung galaxy s II (epic 4g touch) do not attempt to root using our method it won't work and will probably mess up your phone.Motorola and Samsung use completely different firmware

If you have a custom recovery, you can flash supersu.zip then reboot and have root.
I'll find the zip and link you to it.

[Q] Removing a r/o system app

I am trying to remove the SPG.apk (I believe that's Verizon's tether block application) from a stock rom that is already installed on my phone. I tried using root explorer however it won't let me. I believe there is a way to use adb to do this? If so, what would the command lines be?
use
Code:
adb uninstall <package name>

To delete anything off the /system partition in root explorer, you need to mount the it r/w first. There is a button on the top that should say "Mount R/W". You need to press that before deleting anything.
Root Explorer will let you remove anything you want.
Provided you click the Mount R/W button in the top right first.....

I wasn't sure if root explorer would function as a normal file manager without root. Especially considering he said he is running s stock rom.

Nope. It won't run without root. The developer has another file explorer called "Explorer" as opposed to "Root Explorer", and that one runs without root.

[Q] No root through ADB?

Hi there. So I just got my T889, using heimdall, I flashed over CWM. and Tweaked 1.3. I think I'm missing something as even though I can run root-required apps on the device, adb root gives me this error...
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
Additionally I want to push things to the device over adb and am getting permission denied errors. Is there some other nob I need to twiddle to make the device think it's properly root? Thanks!
Not sure what you mean, what are you trying to push? And why?

It works for me. You'll get an error and pop-up window if the intended directory is mounted as read only, just remount r/w and make sure root explorer has root permissions, and it works fine. I use only root explorer, and can absolutely guarantee it works to do this operation, as I started doing the same thing when titanium was unable to convert to system app on 5.1.1.
A click on thanks is always appreciated.

If you're running encrypted, that's the issue. Otherwise, try cutting and pasting. You said before you copied, copy won't work, you can't have the same file in two different app groups at the same time.

I doubt it's the boot .img, depends which ROM you're using I guess, I think it's a permissions issue with root explorer. As I said, I've never seen that operation fail on my device outside of r/o, it works fine for me on flo and four other devices on 5.1.1 ROMs.

Possible Root Method for 5.1.1, Need Help..

Ok, so I have been looking into some of the SuperSU.zip files and sound that there are a few that actually dont make the phone go into boot loop. I double checked the system/xbin and su is installed as well as busybox. Then When I replace a 64 bit su file into Superuser 2.19, supersu app keeps telling me to update the binaries. Thats where Im stuck. So to recap.
I used the root method from CF-autoroot.
Once it failed I pulled the battery and flashed SuperSU-v2.19zip..
Now I get the binary update notification...
If I can just get some help from anyone that knows what they are doing that would be awesome..
Here is the Modded zip.. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6opNIGQWcVYT1JRMmtrNFUtbE0/view?usp=sharing
BTW: I got the 64 su file from root junky...
I know you've tried a lot more than posted here, not sure if all attempts but did you try CWM recovery in any of the superuser flashes?
I think the su binary is dependent on the application. SuperSU is telling you update the binary and going no further?
TWRP and SuperSU are bound to Google's interactive shell limitations to remain in Google Play. They may not be the most capable sources to deal with latest Samsung increased security. Those may be reasons older applications targeted to lollipop are working better than latest.

I have tried that... the earlier builds flash without bootloop.. v2.16-2.19, newer builds, v2.30 on up, send it to bootloop.. i just felt i was getting closer with the modded su and the notification.
Ive been at it for like 2 weeks.. lol..

So beta 2.49 SuperSU fails also? Have you tried its su binary with those earlier builds targeted at lollipop? Maybe there was a reason for beta; can't be released in Play, no terms would apply to it. Wishful thinking?
None of the su binaries work?
Regards,
Edit: by definition, the terms indicated how interactive shell interacts with SEAndroid or SELinux. Maybe the /system/vendor/lib/liboemcrypto.so and /system/lib/libselinux.so need to be swapped with the first Lollipop tar that dropped? OB7 for Sprint Note 4.
Edit 2: if using custom kernel, don't need liboemcrypto.so

The OP says he can flash mods. I'm assuming here and you know the consequences of such, but thought it also possible to mount system and use the TWRP file manager to edit system.
I'm still OB7 but following with interest regarding the root of OG5 and recovery methods.
Edit: If L Speed Mod flashes successfully, default mode should give more freedom if using ADB and it doesn't need root. I think it's all shell scripts. (ADB Insecure required for booted mode adb access.)

Ill look into it flashing l speed mods.. maybe that can be a door... I know that Selinux and fix permissions can be applied via TWRP. SU binaries are applied.. they were in the system folders. So su is where its supposed to be. Busybox is where its supposed to be, 2.49 does not work just older builds. Its all a matter of figuring out how to update binaries??

I'm out of ideas. Maybe the kernel devs will figure it out when source drops. Everything seems to be pointing that direction due to S6 exploit required.
Did L Speed Mod do anything to help with adb access or adb shell? I have to use ADB Insecure to use adb in booted mode with stock OB7 kernel; initial lollipop release. I was hoping that would help TW 5.1.1 as well.
Did you get the init.d test to pass? Here's a good tutorial; I think it's the developer's tut.

You're welcome. Just try the default settings once you know init.d works. Maybe you won't need root since you can flash scripts.
Hang in there. I don't think it will long. It would sure be nice if all carriers got a developer edition. I'm all for security but not at the price of losing root. I still prefer the stock kernel. Now I may be looking for a near stock kernel again.

Well, that's the thing. I need all the help i can get. I posted over here because you guys have development. I have been watching your forum like a hawk, just waiting for you guys to get 5.1.1. Lol....We dont in the sprint note edge forum. But i figure its the same hardware.
So with all that said, i really appreciate your help. Its a great step at a fresh direction.
