Hi,
I am trying to alter the boot xml file to get my boot sound back. I am on Modaco 2.5.1 now.
Pulled the boot sound xml file, edited. But when I try push back to phone I get the 'android adb push read-only file system' message.
How do I get round this?
Thanks
Phil

Do a adb remount before doing the push should solve it.
Thanks
That solved it!

adb remount
"remount failed: Operation not permitted"
you cant do it while in recovery,you have to be booted up.
EXAMPLE to remove Sim Toolkit
adb remount
remount successful
adb shell rm /system/app/Stk.apk
Done...
If you still have problems type adb shell, type su,press allow on your phone screen then try again.
If it shows a $ sign when u type adb shell then u got no root son

You can try it in terminal emulator after su.
Code:

# mount -o rw,remount /system
<do what you want>
# mount -o ro,remount /system
thanks for the information!
Hi.
Samsung Galaxy Ace - FroYo 2.2.1 - Rooted with superuser.
Pulled framework.jar from /system/framework/framework.jar
edited it and now pushing back.
I get
failed to copy 'framework.jar' to '/system/framework/framework.jar': Read-only file system.
I know it's a read-only file system, but I need to push that (and other files) back there.
How to allow that process?
My other option is to "FLASH" a .zip file which contains these files, and I think that puts them in their desired location, but:
What is Flashing and how is it done on my device? I've been googling for a couple hours now with no luck. Adobe Flash is taking all the search results, and some found forum entries aren't helping.
Many thanks, I hope for a quick reply.
Hi, same problem trying to push some libs and framework.jar back to where they originally pulled from. I need to do that for Arabization on Samsung Galaxy Ace running Froyo 2.2.1 with Root.
Error returs "failed: read-only file system"
I've beek googling and searching forums for a couple days now with no luck. Tried many things, commands and chmod which all failed.
The other option, which is to use update.zip on stock recovery to send the files home has failed. Got the following:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing upate...
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip (Status 0)
Installation aborted.
I couldn't install ClockworkMod to try it there because Rom Manager does not list my phone (Samsung Galaxy Ace) in the options it gives me when I ask it to Flash ClockworkMod Recovery into my phone. I don't know which phone to choose form the list:
- Huawei Pulse Mini
- Dell Streak
- Huawei Pulse
- Commtiva Z71 (Boston, blaze, and more)
- Geeksphone ONE
- Spice MI700, Commtiva Link N700 and more)
- Huawei Ascend
Halp.
Oh just noticed I have both last posts. How progress works.
By the way,
#mount -o rw,remount /system
does not help. Trying to copy files using 'cp' commant in shell now simply brings 'file exists'. Is there an 'overwrite' attribute to add that'll fix it?
adb remount worked for me thanks..

It looks like you forgot the step where you modify the flash_image's permissions
Code:
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
I had the same thing but I just kept reentering
adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb push recovery.img /sdcard
adb push flash_image /system/bin
and after maybe 4 iterations it worked.

I wouldn't try to flash anything you find here to a Moto Droid.
This is for the HTC Droid Eris.

I'm not aware of that app, and cannot find it in the market myself (do you have a link?)
However, one way to check for sure if you truly have root is run the adb command adb shell and, when you get a prompt, type the command "su". If it returns with a "#" prompt (rather than the "$" prompt that you are seeing), then you have root on the phone.
Most people these days root with either jcase's 1click root for eris: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.andirc.erisrooter or they use the procedure here: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/127861-universal-eris-root-dummies.html
You may be able to use the steps here as well, since you seem pretty comfortable with adb and have that working already: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/125436-detailed-leak-root-tutorial.html
Guys new I found another solution (tested on u8150)
First make sure that you are rooted first.
Open adb shell
Type in su.
Remount the system partition as read write.
Change the owner of system from root to system via chown root system
the exit the shell and push flash_image to system/
also push clockworkmodrecover.img into the system partion dont forget the last /.
then exit.
use a file manager, I used rootbrowser.apk without a memory card and installed recovery.
with rootbrowser copy flash_image to the bin directory.
don't forget to change the owner back to root to the system partition after you finish with rootexplorer or whatever u use even adb can work.
then the rest follows.
The above works only if your'e rooted and have adb.
Goodluck
haha am a genius Installing ROM +Recover without sdcard on u8150
all you have to do is:-
1. Make sure u have installed clockwork mode recovery on your device and have su binary.
2. Open adb with the device normally on.
3. Remount the data partition as read write using mount remount in adb .
4. use adb and push the cynogenmode.zip or any rom that fits into the data partition using
adb push romname.zip /data/
5. Reboot into clockworkmod recovery using the various options available.
6. This is what to do if you don't have a sdcard.
open adb with phone connected and run
adb shell
mount /data /sdcard
then go back to the main recovery menu and wipe dalvik cache only
then choose update from sdcard
flash your rom and tadaaa.
your'e done.
NB:CAUTION MAKE SURE TO FLASH A ROM THAT DOES NOT WRITE INTO THE DATA PARTION
THIS CAN BE DONE BY LOOKING FOR A FILE CALL UPDATE SCRIPT IN THE zip OF THE ROM U WANT TO INSTALL
Am going to make a post about this later.
Goodluck
Lol, 3 and a half year break between responses.
The problem with flash_image & dump_image is that it doesn't work on devices devices which use emmc (recent phones)and have
mmcblk0
and cat /proc/mtd won't work here either.
This means that you have to use dd to write to this devices.
I wonder how guys determine the partitions to use on such devices, and someone should hint as to what is going on since it seems manufacturers seriously don't want people to exploit their devices.
I am trying to root an elocity A7 and I pretty new at this. I installed root explorer but the mount r/w button does not work in the system folder. I tried the terminal command below but it does not seem to accept the command. I get back a message that says shows Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options [-t type] device directory. I retried root explorer and still can't write. Thanks for any help.
- open Terminal emulator:
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /system
- open Root Explorer \system folder and press r/w
adb remount
or search the market for "mount system"
I'm not following how to use adb remount. What would be the complete command line? Also, I can't get to the market which is why I am trying this. I read it on another thread here.
i cant find mount r/w button
download this program from the market "Mount /system (rw / ro)"
I can't get to the market on this device. Any other way of getting it?
Try the attached zip
Thank you! That worked.

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

Hi!
I tried to mode framework to get % battery display (circle), but i cant push it back to /system/framework folder because i cant remount. I got this error:
E:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb remount
remount failed: Operation not permitted.
Here is framework mod, hope it works.
Warning: im not try it yet so i dont know it causes bootloop or not.
http://www.mediafire.com/?wrhaaayku2rvmvv
I want to use push command so that the framework-res.apk will have correct permission after push back to system.
OK! Dont try it. I just replaced new mod framework, new icons with %battery show in statusbar, but got bootloop. May be problem with permission?
Now, how to restore stock one?

no need, after you pushed the file to framework, you may restart your phone.
I recommend using dd as you do not have a risk of setting the wrong file permissions.
Hi guys.
I was editing the vold.fstab file using root explorer. When i restarted my phone i got a message "Unfortunately Usb connectivity has stopped working." when i open settings i got message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped working". I still have my original vold.fstab file left in my sd card but sd card is not working too. I have an Xperia M rooted and unlocked bootloader Please help.
Please tell me if there is a way to reset everything and reinstall the firmware.
Thanks.

You could try to use adb to restore the original vold.fstab to your /system/etc/ folder if your usb debugging is still working:
Code:
adb push vold.fstab /system/etc/vold.fstab
adb shell
su
chmod 755 /system/etc/vold.fstab
exit
adb reboot
If it doesn't work try an other way:
Code:
adb push vold.fstab /data/local/tmp/vold.fstab
adb shell
su
mv /data/local/tmp/vold.fstab /system/etc/vold.fstab
chmod 755 /system/etc/vold.fstab
exit
adb reboot
If any of these ways doesn't work and you have a cwm recovery try to give these commands while you are booted to recovery.
You could also make a flashable zip and you flash it from recovery.
**If you double mounted your sdcard may be corruped and you have to use a partition manager to recreate the partition of your sdcard on PC**
Thanks for the reply.
Well the usb debugging is still working. So i tried the both adb push command, it says "cannot stat 'vold.fstab': no such file or directory" . EDIT: Tried it again, says "failed to copy vold.fstab to '/system/etc/vold.fstab': Read only file system.
I also tried that chmod command but doesn't works, says "cannot chmod system/etc/vold.fstab: Read only file system.".
And about that cwm, i can't get into cwm recovery. I tried all that vol up and down things. I tried using sd card with a card reader, it works fine. Please help.
Thanks in advance.

To apply these changes to system partition you have to make your system partition rewritable.Try to make it rw from Root Explorer or try some adb command:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
If this doesn't work try something like:
mount -o remount,rw -t {your partition type} /dev/block/{your partition name and number} /system
* To see your partition table give the command cat proc/mtd or cat /proc/emmc *
Example:
mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
Then try to push the file in the system (Give the "exit" command to quit the shell before try to push the file).

after that use
Code:

if you wil get permission denied you need to do hard reset from recovery and try again
after that you could change files in /system
great, i will try this later.. any guides on doing a hard reset?? keeping in mind that i don't have custom recovery..

you could get into stock recovery by holding power+volume up
all of this suggesting that you are at 4.5.2 and rooted

Hmm....Strange. Are you see Fire as mtp device on you Pc (for Mac you need https://www.android.com/filetransfer/)?
If "yes" - try to copy update.zip manual into Fire's internal storage.
