[Q] How do I get RW in the /system/app?

I'm trying to push an apk there but I can't get permission. I tried using this:
Code:
adb shell mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
but it told me "operation not permitted". I got that code from the one click root.
What am I doing wrong?

When in the sdk tools directory but not in adb do;
adb push C:\file.apk /sdcard/file.apk
then open shell
adb shell
su
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
now you are mounted. Just move the file
mv /sdcard/file.apk /system/app/file.apk

Thanks

[Q] Having trouble mounting \system in rw on BAMF 1.5

Hey guys,
Loaded BAMF 1.5 yesterday and have been enjoying the ROM thus far. However, I've been trying to push my custom widget.txt to the \system\customize\ folder so I can have my own power controls in the notifcation bar. I have tried the Mount rw/ro app from the Market, and have also tried mounting rw using adb (mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system).
Each time, when I use the command: adb push widget.txt /system/customize/ I get the error: failed to copy 'widget.txt' to '\system\customize\': Read-only file system
Where am I going wrong?

I'm pretty sure the TB is using EXT3, not YAFFS2.
Try
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Even easier, assuming you have busybox. busybox mount isn't as lame as the standard mount which is provided, so you don't have to tell it as much, it can figure things out on its own:
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
busybox mount -o remount,ro /system
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

even easier.
sysrw
sysro
Doesn't anyone ever read the first post of my rom?

I'm an idiot. Thanks for the ext3 vs yaffs2 reminder.
I'll try busybox at some point also to check
And to Adrynalyne, apparently I didn't read the first post...my bad. Thanks for reading mine, though. I'll pay closer attention in the future.

No use about that.
Maybe I'll try it on winxp system.

[Q] How to Uninstall Unofficial Safestrap 3.75

I've searched all over these forums trying to figure out how to uninstall Unofficial Safestrap 3.75, but have not had any luck. I did some mods to my S3 and want to remove SS 3.75 because each time the S3 reboots it first goes to the Samsung Custom screen that shows an opened padlock and then goes to the "Safestrap Disabled Screen" where you can push "continue" (or it does so in 10 seconds on its own) or Recovery. I've tried uninstalling it by using Link2SD, but I still get the screens mentioned above. The app doesn't show in the App Manager Drawer, so I'm not sure what to do. I would appreciate any help at all with this. Thanks!

Enter adb shell from your pc:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/etc/init.qcom.modem_links.sh.bin /system/etc/init.qcom.modem_links.sh
rm -rf /system/etc/safestrap
rm /system/etc/firmware/q6.mdt
ln -s /firmware/image/q6.mdt /system/etc/firmware/q6.mdt
mount -o remount,ro /system

Thanks a lot for your reply. This is a very time consuming process, and I'm still having trouble.
When I'm in the command prompt screen from sdk\PlatformTools and enter the first line of code su I get an error message saying "su is not recognized as an internal or external command"
btw, I entered command adb devices to make sure S3 is connected, and based on reply, it appears to be. I have attached a jpg showing both of the above situations. If you or anyone has an idea how to solve this glitch, I'd appreciate it!

Full code:
adb devices
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/etc/init.qcom.modem_links.sh.bin /system/etc/init.qcom.modem_links.sh
rm -rf /system/etc/safestrap
rm /system/etc/firmware/q6.mdt
ln -s /firmware/image/q6.mdt /system/etc/firmware/q6.mdt
mount -o remount,ro /system

Thank You!!!
