hi,
after latest upgrade (htc desire, open desire 2.3, busybox, app2sd), i have issues with the access to the file system on /system (via terminal emulator from the phone).
all works fine using adb, but when i try to delete or copy a file to /system (directly on phone), i have a error.
i have searched over inet, but i don't find :/
i attach a example below
Code:
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cd /system/etc/test
# ls
-rw-rw-rw root root 124 ul 22 13:54 test1
-rw-rw-rw root root 124 ul 22 13:54 test2
# rm test1
error deleting test1: directory not empty
# ls
-rw-rw-rw root root 124 ul 22 13:54 test2
# ls test1
test1
edit:
i have the same issue when i connect to my phone using adb (and the phone started, not in recovery mode)..
Code:
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cd /system/app
# cp -f /sdcard/install/nosense/system/app/Terminal.apk .
cp: can't create './Terminal.apk': Out of memory
# cp -f /sdcard/install/nosense/system/app/Terminal.apk .
cp: can't create './Terminal.apk': Out of memory
# cd /system/app
# cp -f /sdcard/install/nosense/system/app/Terminal.apk .
cp: can't create './Terminal.apk': Out of memory
# cd /system/app
# cp -f /sdcard/install/nosense/system/app/Terminal.apk .
cp: can't create './Terminal.apk': Out of memory
Hi there... are you new to the desire?
As far as I can remember, writing to /system/ outside of ADB in Recovery is not possible on the Desire - an unfortunate limitation of the current root methods which hasn't been circumvented yet.
oh! thx!
i have received my desire a few days ago.
my old phone was a nexus.
i agree! and sorry for the inconvenience
What inconvenience?
I was a little confused too when I started reading about root on the Desire, and the info is hard to find (buried in one [or a few] of the many root tutorials)...
The really interesting part, IMO, is whether this limitation causes any problems with root-apps. But there don't seem to be any other than Adfree, and there seem to be patched versions that work with the Desire now (IIRC by moving the Hosts file out of /system/ and symlinking to it)
Hi guys,
If any one getting error while remounting system partition in rw mode using adb, please follow these steps :
C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools> adb remount
remount failed: No such file or directory
SOLUTION:
Connect to your device usb adb: [FOR ROOTED DEVICES ONLY]
C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools> adb shell
$su
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/stl12 /system
(do your desired work like copy some files on system/media folder , then remount the system partition in ro mode again)
# cd /
#mount -o remount,ro /dev/stl12 /system
#exit
$exit
Thats all
FYI if you want to know the dev partitions mounted on your device :
C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools> adb shell
$ su
# mount
cheers
Did you map the other partitions by any chance? I'd like to be able to make a full backup to eventually be flashed back with Heimdall or ODIN. I already have a system.rfs (stock + root) that could be made in a tar image.
I've see tutorials for other Samsung phones but these need to be adapted to our exact setup. I haven't found anything generic enough to know how to go about mapping things.
It might also help those who flashed GT-S5660 ROMs on the Bell Canada GT-S5660M, as the screen brightness issues sound very much like kernel issues to me...
I can't quite tell what the difference is between stl and bml either. (I'll probably try dd'ing the different blocks, except stl5, and peek around with a hex editor...)
Goodbye,
Darkshado
This might work on other devices.
WARNING: this might brick your phone use it at your own risk.
Warning you have to have some knowlage of linux to do this kind of stuff.
WARNING: actually you have to have _good_ knowlage of linux/gnu stuff to do it.
The idea is this is to make the /system/bin/toolbox from the stock rom suid (permision 6755, it originaly has 0755)
This is how I did it. It might be simpler.
get a stock rom that you want. for me it was B5330XWALH3
it is now available at samsung-updates.
You need odin (heimdal will not work with my phone) (my was 3.07)
unpack the zip.
you get a .tar.md5 file (the tar file has broken headers so tar from ubuntu 12.04 will not unpackit).
the tar file works in sectors of 512 bytes.
take out the md5sum at the end of file. (some thing like: head -c (the size up to the last md5sum) original.tar.md5 > file1)
split the file so you will have the system.img.md5 separated (some thing like: head -c (the size upto "system.img.md5") file1 > file2;
head -c (the size upto "dt-blob.md5") file1 | tail -c +(the size upto "system.img.md5" + 1) > file3;
tail -c +(the size upto "dt-blob.md5" + 1) file1 > file4
file3 now has the system.img.md5, trim the md5sum from the tail and the tar headr from head (ex.:
head -c (upto the md5sum output from the rear of the file) file3 | tail -c +513 > file5)
file5 is a sparce image file of an ext4 filesystem. run simg2img (from ext4fs_utils (search on xda)) (ex.:
simg2img file5 file6)
sudo mount -o loop,ro file6 /mnt
look for the file /mnt/bin/toolbox (ex.: ls -l /mnt/bin/toolbox) it will give you an output like this:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 2000 99068 Aug 9 07:59 /mnt/bin/toolbox
sudo umount /mnt
the permisions and the size of the file yield the following hex sequence that you get in the file (we will hexedit the ext4 fs): ED 81 00 00 FC 82 01 00
in file3 edit the sequence (it should be only one in the file) from ED 81 00 00 FC 82 01 00 to ED 8D 00 00 FC 82 01 00 (practically adding the suid guid bits to the inode of the toolbox)
we are almost done, now to pack our bags and go.
verify that you have indeed put suid guid to toolbox:
head -c (upto the md5sum output from the rear of the file) file3 | tail -c +513 > file5;
simg2img file5 file6;
sudo mount -o loop,ro file6 /mnt;
ls -l /mnt/bin/toolbox
It should give an output:
-rwsr-sr-x 1 root 2000 99068 Aug 9 07:59 /mnt/bin/toolbox
sudo umount /mnt
recalculate the md5sum to the _expanded_ image: md5sum file6 > file7
overide the md5sum at the end of file3 with the one from file7
now pack the pieces in one tar: cat file2 file3 file4 > myfirmware.tar
add the md5sum to it: md5sum myfirmware.tar >> myfirmware.tar
change the name to .tar.md5: mv myfirmware.tar myfirmware.tar.md5
copy the file on a windowze machine (that has odin and the samsung drivers intalled).
update with odin the new firmware (which you should put in the PDA section) (don't forget to un check the repartitioning).
you should have now a practivally rooted device.
in order to have su and Superuser.apk on it you have to do the following steps:
push with adb su, busybox and Superuser.apk into /data/local/tmp on device (you get the files from other forums here at xda)
the next steps are on device (use adb shell)
verify that indeed we have a suid toolbox: ls -l /system/bin/toolbox should give that wanderfull -rwsr-sr-x permission.
find a rw mount that has suid (in my case a tmpfs is mounted /mnt/obb)
copy su to /mnt/obb (remember that we have suid toolbox this means that toolbox now gives you root on any command):
dd if=/data/local/tmp/su of=/mnt/obb/su
give su suid and make it owned by root: chmod 6755 /mnt/obb/su; chown 0.0 /mnt/obb/su
run su now and enjoy the #: /mnt/obb/su -

Ofcorse after you get # you should remount /system as rw, copy su in /system/xbin, copy Superuser.apk in /system/app, copy busybox in /system/xbin, make symlinks to busybox for all the comands in /system/xbin.
You should also upon success remove suid from toolbox so as to not mistakely do damage to the system (for instance "rm /")
And here you have it.
If you do not understand what I have done, you should read more linux / tar / ext4 / md5sum.
This method should work for any phone provided that it has odin as bootloader and there is the stock rom available.
hello
I don't have knowledge about how you have rooted the firmware for b5330, the steps you made are waaaay to dificult for me . Could you provide here an already rooted firmware, to download and install. thanks in advance

no need to upload 400M for this little modification.
I'm unable to post links, goto samsung-updates
go and download B5330XWALI2_B5330OXXALI2_B5330XWLH1_HOME stock firmware.
and apply this xdelta patch over it.

after that you have the firmware that I use to root my phone.
Still... this firmware will not have "su" install, it will just be a rootable firware because it has a suid'ed toolbox.
a suid'ed toolbox in android means that you can exec chown and chmod as a root.
So. After the patching of the stock rom and flashing it. you have to have this md5sum output:
032b4344ab503c8413db9127efaa3d83 myfrm.tar.md5

odin will accept it (I've used Oding 3.07).
after that you push the files from the attached tar.gz to /data/local/tmp
tar -xzf superuser_stuff.tar.gz
adb push su /data/local/tmp
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
Click to expand...

after that you bassically have to run this commands in an android shell in order to get to a stardard rooted android:
adb shell # enter the in the phone
dd if=/data/local/tmp/su of=/mnt/obb/su # copy the su binary to a place that can be sudoed
chown 0.0 /mnt/obb/su # modify the owner
chmod 6755 /mnt/obb/su # set SUID flag.
/mnt/obb/su # becomes root !!
mount -o remount,rw /system # remount the system partition as readwrite.
dd if=/data/local/tmp/su of=/system/xbin/su #copy su in path
chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
chmod 755 /system/bin/toolbox # close the security hole (toolbox is nologer with SUID)
dd if=/data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk of=/system/app/Superuser.apk # copy the superuser application

I downloaded this firmware: Samsung-Updates.com-GT-B5330_COA_1_20120913171601_pducfx5hbw.zip. Where, how, what???...i unzipped it and now how to apply the patch? The rest of the stept i think i get it....i think For you it's easy to say, for me it's hard to do. I've had sgs1, sgs2 and sgs3, and the root of those was sooooooo easy... but this piece of crap b5330 drives me crazy )

I've used xdelta package.
if you are on win then you're on your own.
there is xdelta.org and it seems to have pachage for windows.
for sgs[123] was easy because are main streams. may hackers were working on it.
this device is very new/obscure.
I whould have made a script, but alas, "heimdal" firmware loader whould not work with this device.
I've used linux to patch the firmware and windowze to upload it.
So a script whould be imposible, but after you pach .tar.md5 file and load it on your phone is just about cut and paste form my previous post.
My hope is that a more android savy guy will take this concept and make it a script.
I am just happy that I can now have debian on my phone.
yes, i am on win....there is no way to patch that COA firmware (i am from romania) and upload somewhere to download???i know i am probably asking to much from you, but i dont't think i will manage by my own...this rooting busines is driving me crazyyyyy :crying::crying::crying: thank you so much for your answer!!!

There commands are supposed to be given in a command line box (cmd on win).
where does it gives you error?
adb shell # enter the in the phone
dd if=/data/local/tmp/su of=/mnt/obb/su # copy the su binary to a place that can be sudoed
chown 0.0 /mnt/obb/su # modify the owner
chmod 6755 /mnt/obb/su # set SUID flag.
/mnt/obb/su # becomes root !!
mount -o remount,rw /system # remount the system partition as readwrite.
dd if=/data/local/tmp/su of=/system/xbin/su #copy su in path
chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
chmod 755 /system/bin/toolbox # close the security hole (toolbox is nologer with SUID)
dd if=/data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk of=/system/app/Superuser.apk # copy the superuser application
chown 0.0 /system/app/Superuser.apk
chmod 666 /system/app/Superuser.apk
#now this is done for busybox
dd if=/data/local/tmp/busybox of=/system/xbin/busybox
chown 0.0 /system/xbin/busybox
chmod 755 /system/xbin/busybox
finally it worked
yeeeees, damn you're good!!!! i have managed to root my b5330, root checher tell me that i am rooted and busybox is instaled...the only problem is that it shows me that i do not have installed superuser and supersu. Is there a problem if i just copy paste the apk file (supersu.apk and superuser.apk -> i've downloaded the pro version of bouth of them ) straight into the directory /data/local/tmp where it should be? or to copy-paste in another directory. Thanks in advance, CMD(and adb shell) gave me headache, but i finally got it an succedeed )) :victory::good:

1. I'm glad you got it.
2. You should give thanks (that button) if I helped you.
3. I'm you dont read instructions. Maybe it's a problem with us romanian engineers, or maybe engineers in general
look at item 11. from my previous post. maybe I just c&p here.
dd if=/data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk of=/system/app/Superuser.apk
So, when you are in adb shell and you go root (su command, you get the promt with #) and you have the /system mounted rw.
Then any apk that you copy to /system/app folder will get intalled and when you list your application (the button with 16 squares) you should see it.
Have fun.
i was having trouble understanding adb shell and cmd from the begining. I never used this command tool...ever ) and i think from yesterday to this day i managed really ok . Anyway i think i will just copy-paste the superuser.apk in "app" folder directly in the system (it's the same thing, isn't it??). I have done that in item 11., and after a restart supersu was instaled, only superuser.apk didn't, i think i wrote something wrong in adb shell

but now i've a new problem that my b5330 can't type a question mark ('?').. can you help me please..
whenever i want to type a question mark it always typed a comma (',') in the screen..:crying:
it also it change the symbol and language key to emoticon and symbol, but that's not a problem for me..

That's because you have use the romanian firmware. whitch has a qwerty layout keyboard.
you have to do it the right way:
first. find the firmaware for your region:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-B5330
second. find a linux machine and run the script from the thread.
It is unrealistic for me to just upload all the 40 version of the firmware patched.
That is why I've made the script.
If you don't have a linux machine then look for a virtual box ubuntu and run on it.
Cheers.
A few days ago, I flashed a zip onto my phone that set SELinux to permissive. However, there was a problem: it deleted logd, which is essential to adb logcat. Considering I'm an Android developer, that isn't a good thing! It took me a bit to figure out how to get it back, so I'm making this guide to share with you guys to help whatever poor soul has to fix this next.
Note that these steps were designed with Linux in mind, though they might be adaptable to Cygwin/OSX with some effort.
Also, make sure you delete any SELinux permissive scripts from init.d/su.d first!
Prerequisites
The OTA or custom rom zip that your device is currently running
adb
simg2img (available in the Ubuntu software repositories)
sdat2img (available here)
Instructions
Put your OTA/custom ROM zip file in a new folder and unzip it (this example is using the Pure Nexus ZIP):
Code:
mkdir restore_logd
cp pure_nexus_hammerhead-7.0-20161025-HOMEMADE.zip restore_logd
cd restore_logd
unzip pure_nexus_hammerhead-7.0-20161025-HOMEMADE.zip
Now, look for a file named either system.new.dat or system.img.
If you have system.img, then run:
Code:
simg2img system.img system.raw.img
If you have system.new.dat AND system.transfer.list, instead run:
Code:
sdat2img.py system.transfer.list system.new.dat system.raw.img
Either way, you should now have a file named system.raw.img. Next, mount it:
Code:
mkdir system_mnt
sudo mount -t ext4 -o loop system.raw.img system_mnt
This will mount the system image onto the system_mnt folder.
Plug in your device to your computer and make sure USB debugging is enabled, then run:
Code:
adb push system_mnt/bin/logd /sdcard/logd
adb shell
You should now be in a shell connected to your device. Inside, run:
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/logd /system/bin/logd
chmod 755 /system/bin/logd
exit
This will install the logd binary and close the shell.
This next part is very important! Making sure you closed the adb shell and are still inside the directory you created, run:
Code:
ls -Z system_mnt/bin/logd
If the output looks like this:
Code:
? system_mnt/bin/logd
then you have nothing else to do. Otherwise, it might look a bit like this:
Code:
u:object_r:logd_exec:s0 system_mnt/bin/logd
Copy part before the path; in this case, it's:
Code:
u:object_r:logd_exec:s0
Then, run:
Code:
adb shell su root chcon permission /system/bin/logd
replacing permission with the string you copied.
Now you can unplug and restart your device; logd should now be fully working!
Last but not least, run:
Code:
sudo fusermount -u system_mnt
to unmount the system image from your computer.
Enjoy!
Execute command failed while replacing permission
Code:
adb shell su root chcon permission /system/bin/logd
u:object_r:logd_exec:s0
