Hello.
I've installed viper4android on my mido. Everything is ok, but there is a background static sound when music is being played. According to the viper FAQ I need to delete /system/lib/soundfx/libbundlewrapper.so. What did I do:
1. Mount system as rw
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount,rw /system
2. try to rename that file
cd /system/lib/soundfx
mv libbundlewrapper.so libbudnlewrapper-2.so.bak
3. No success. Trying to create backup in a file manager and than trying to delete it. Still no luck. Changed system to ro and I'll wait for suggestions.
The file is there like I haven't done anything. The uncharted territory of the system partition still awaits for me. What I can do next to get the thing to work?

I use Official and final RR
The phone uses magisk and viper was flashed by magisk (should I remove the module and flash as non-system app?)

Renaming the file does not go despite a Toast is visible "Rename Successful" and while deleting there is "Device or resource busy"

Nope, you haven't mounted system in twrp, that's the reason you are only seeing /usr
So do this
From main menu, select "mount" and there select System, also make sure that the "system" box is checked and the box saying "mount system partition as read only" is unchecked(I've attached a screenshot for reference). Now you can easily go to /system and it should list the files and folders., And you can delete the file you want. Quote me if you need more help

I have tried a lot of custom Roms. I'm on Neat ROM Lite now. Not sure which ROM changed my file access permission settings to cause this problem but I'm not able to delete any files from my external memory card. I was able to delete when I was on stock rom. The other problem is for a few apps I get an error message which says can't install on usb/sd card. I have posted this in another thread
some time back but got no response. Some one please point me in the right direction.
This is what my file permission looks like.
PS: I am able to delete when my fone is connected to PC via USB. So I don't think it has anything to do with a faulty sd card.

download mobile terminal from playstore
Hey I know its been quite sometime now.but as ur advice I downloaded mobile terminal and now have to run the following command everytime I boot my fone:
mount -o rw,remount -t/yaffs2 /storage/extSdCard
Otherwise i do not get rw access to my external sd.Istn't there a permanent solution to this? Also I fail to understand what changed my permissions and why does this persist across all the new roms I flash?

Create a blank file and type that command in it. Now save it and rename it to 95mountsd with no extension
Now, if you have init.d support, place it in /system/etc/init.d and reboot
Command will run on every boot itself
Thank you, it worked. Now could please have a look at my other issue, in this post I'd be really thankful.
Can you please tell me what could be the reason for my default rw settings to change, coz I remember when I had stock os I never had to do all this.

Sorry, i'm not good at hardware stuff
Maybe the ROMs aren't mounting that special kind of partition your sdcard is having
FAT32 format works universally
yaffs2 may not
I'm not sure

Hi,
I'm rooted yet cannot mount system folders as r/w. I am definitely rooted (confirmed by using su command in terminal and the fact apps that require root are working) and noticed this issue when trying to install busybox pro.
It warned me that there was an existing busybox in /sbin and would remove it before trying to install in system/xbin but the installation failed.
I tried to remove busybox from /sbin but the folder would not mount as r/w in root explorer OR solid explorer.
I managed to remove the file in TWRP recovery though.
Weirdly, I've been using titanium backup to uninstall system apps without any issues.
How can I fix this? Repair permissions int wrp?
I presume you followed the same instructions as I. I am on the 621 and currently have the same issue (also rooted). But on my end it is actually worse. I cannot mount the system partition in TWRP either (I mean I can mount it but when I try to delete or move a file I get error messages), and something happened to my download manager (which basically means that for the time being I cannot download apps from Google Play or from the internet, etc). I have a good download manager apk, but when I try to install it it asks me if I want to update the existing app, and the operation fails - I have to try and find a 3rd party alternative for the time being). It is kind of a problem.
(to update, I have very limited r/w permissions in TWRP. If I get lucky I can make small changes.)

I don't think so. I tried this, and I eventually was able to view/attempt to edit file permissions inside of X-plore file explorer (don't know if it is a coincidence, but I first had that success opening X-plore in 'mount system r/w' mode after changing the i/o scheduler to cfq). Anyways, it consistently shows all 755/644 permissions, so the permissions are not being re-written upon boot from what I can gather. But if I try to edit permissions or copy files to System folders, I still got error messages to the effect of "you cannot do this,' even though it is a root file explorer and the system partition is purportedly mounted as r/w.

Thank you for this. Has anyone ever tried this on the Z3TC? Mine is running smoothly enough such that I am reluctant to fix what isn't broken. It seems that early issues I had with freezes, TWRP, etc, probably had to do with my SD card and the Android media scanner.
I've tried it on the Z3TC SGP621. Thus the recommendation.

Use my RICDefeat from here and run it from terminal. Works only if you are rooted. Afterwards you should have r/w access.

Make sure you are mounting /system as RW first. By default it is RO. If you have root explorer it's just easy as clicking the RW button but if not there is always terminal and a command you enter.

Terminal I mentioned to mount your system as RW. Why not edit your build.prop on computer and push it to your device in recovery mode.

Tried to do it with adb but it comes back to original one.
i was able to successfully change the build.prop file by using the file manager in twrp recovery.
i kept the modified file on my sd card, went into recovery, fired up the file manager, browsed to my sd card, selected the modded file, chose the copy option, then chose the /system folder as the destination. rebooted and the changed file stayed changed!
my device is rooted, bootloader unlocked, and s-on.
root explorer with r/w mounting didnt work for me...file would revert after reboot.
also tried "cp" command in terminal in recovery...didnt seem to copy successfully.
hope this helps!

Go to twrp, mount system, go-to inbuilt file manager and chmod 755 the system folder and reboot, or Dirty flash the firmware will do the job.
Next time, do nand-backup before perform sny changes to system. or would be better don't messed up with root partition.

Boot into TWRP (you said you have it installed), and you have to MOUNT SYSTEM first, or it'll just show you an empty folder without file.

Hi,
I tried to rename root's .ogg files on my Samsung Note 9(Oreo) and unable to do it. I found limited information here. I can rename the .ogg files in the older Android though.. What I have tried so far from these app and failed;
1. ES explorer
2. root explorer
3. mixplorer
4. total commander
Permission for "RW" only can set on "mixploer", and "root explorer" but after tried to copy over the root folder, it prompted failed to copy. Although I can set ES exploere to "RW" mode but it fools you to believe it has rename the file but in reality it was unable to, what a screw up.. Anyone has successfully rename files in root folders?
I did not try this in "safe mode" though..

I was tried to rename the files at internal storage but not able to. I can copied files out to ext memory card or pen drive. After that I was not able to move back to override the current file/files.
Magisk is installed but can't find "ExSDcardEnable module".. Is it in the Magisk manager?
This file ".ogg" is at "system\media\audio\xxxx.ogg" and unable to edit. Looks like the ownership of Oreo harder to make change now..

Well, at least you have remount /systen as read/write with "mount -o rw,remount /system" or in TotalCommander is easier.
Yes, it is downloadable module in Magisk Man. Latest is ExSDCard Write Access Enabler v3.5 (Sorry for bad name). The new access path for our externals SDCards: /mnt/media_rw/SDCARDNUMBER/

By running from Magisk Manager -> Plugins -> sign "+" -> choose *.zip plugin, after automatic install, reboot phone.
Or MM -> Downloads -> search for ExSDcard -> Click on ExSDcard write access enabler -> Install then reboot.
@Hi adeii,
I installed the "ExSDCard Write Access Enabler" by download through the Mgisk manager's download and wonder if correct. I attached a screenshot here.
I tried to use the total commander to rename the ".ogg" files but failed after I have re-mount the R/W. I wonder if I did correctly by adding the folder as shown in the screenshot.
Did anyone successfully overwrite the files in Oreo? I run out of lucks... Not much information about this issues also.. From Jelly Bean to Marshmallow I have no problem to overwrite files(I did not try on Nougat). But Oreo, until now I still have no way to overwrite a simple file like .ogg.. :crying:
