How do I set permissions?

How do I make it so Adao file manager doesn't tell me insufficient permission when I try to put things on the phone.

Not development. Moved to Q&A.

Oops, sry, didn't realize I was in dev forum.

If you are rooted, you set permissions via root explorer. Open root explorer, go to that apk folder and press the button in the top right corner of the screen. It will probably say r/o. After you press it, it should change to r/w.

I'm rooted, but no root explorer. Any other way?

Uh...download root explorer.
You could also do it through adb but I don't know the commands

Is there a free root explorer?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

No, but seriously it's like $4...thats less than 1/50th the price of this phone on contract, and you can use it with whatever phone you get next.

Yaffs explorer, super manager are both free root explorers..

[MOD] CRT animation

[DEPRECIATED] I'll work on getting Stock EL29 up soon.
Well, there was a thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1270232
But it appears the link is down. So, for anyone else that wants it I've edited a stock framework and you can grab it below. What does it do? It is completely stock framework other then the fact that the CRT screen off animation is enabled. Push it to system/framework.
Download

This is a zip file? Is it flashable through CWM?

Its an apk. Not a zip.

Moved the file to system/framework but phone didn't reboot and if I try to install it, says not installed. What am I doing wrong? Using File Expert

You have to manually reboot after you replace the .apk

When I try to copy and past into system/framework it says that it is a read-only file and cannot be placed there!
FIXED******

When I try to put it in the system/framwork folder, there already is a file named framework-res.apk and I cannot get rid of it. What should I do? I'm rooted of course

Sent from my Galaxy S2

I downloaded using the link in the OP. Used Root Explorer to rename the existing APK inside system/framework , then pasted the DLd apk in its place.
Immediately Titanium Backup hit me with an FC, then Market. I rebooted.
When my phone came up all of my sync accounts were gone, including my Market gmail account. Smart Keyboard Pro is gone as the default and Swype is back. Etc.
That'll learn me to Nandroid first.

Yep. I don't remember how to do it in Root Explorer but you may need to fix permissions (I use File Manager it makes it a lot easier). Once you reboot they should be there.
Good luck!

Well I just tried and I guess I didnt do something right still not there I moved it from downloads then pasted it into system/app and restarted I never done any moving like this in my phone so its all new.

K. First change the one apk file so that copy copy doesn't show in it. Then long press on them, select permissions and just select every check box on the popup.
Then regular tap on the apk and attempt to install. You may get a message saying the app didn't install, ignore it.
Now reboot your phone. Hopefully that will fix it. If not there might be compatibility issues with the ROM itself.

It must be a rom thing still not showing up. Mmmmmm dam blazer rom lol

I would rename your original phone.apk to something like "original_phone.apk" instead of deleting it. You never know...

I tried to install this, did everything right and I was unable to get service on my phone, also going into mobile networks section would crash, luckily I had made a nandroid backup just before doing this. Just a warning

On the Verizon model, there IS NO "phone.apk" in the System/App folder. There is a "SecPhone.apk", but making changes to it makes you lose your Verizon service, both voice and data.

I have phoneerrservice.apk and phonesky.apk, am I removing both?

How did you install it? Did you use adb and push it to /system/app? Did you use root explorer and copy it to /system/app and then edit the permissions appropriately? Or did you just open the apk to install?

This is for CM9 users only.

I used root explorer and pushed it to system/app and change permissions. After that, I got no service, wifi worked but couldn't make phone calls or send/receive text messages. So I had to restore from Android backup

Try getting root explorer from the market. Then you can get to it. Once you got that its in system/build.prop and make sure you mount r/w
