Read-Only Filesystem?

Hello, all!
I'm trying edit a file in /etc/ and adb says 'Failed to copy: Read-only filesystem'
Now, is this actually true? Or is this simply a permissions issue? I'm doing this on a non-rooted phone, so I can't 'touch' anything without permission errors, but is it a futile task if the filesystem is read only anyway?
I'm trying to do this from a non-rooted environment as I had intended on making this into an application, but I imagine that if I can't touch or push these files from an adb shell then I won't be able to from the application space either.
It's frustrating not to be able to edit the filesystem of my own phone, I'll be rooting if this is just a permissions problem and not an issue of a non-writable filesystem. Perhaps I could still make an application for rooted-only phones.. hrm..
Any thoughts on this?

/etc is an alias for /system/etc, and /system is a partition mounted as ro (you can confirm this yourself by running mount)

Ah, bugger. So this is hopeless (without modifying and then reflashing)?
Thanks very much.

you need to mount it read write,
mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
then it will be read/write

try adb remount. if it failes you need root sorry.

Hello, i have the same error and I have root. i have tried adb remount and the mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
still dotn work. I want to move a script to /
so i only have to type sh debian.sh
nvm I figured it out. i just put it on system and then just type sh debian.sh on the terminal and it works

what is the error message? saying it dont work doesnt provide enough info for us to help....

it says sh: cant open aw.sh
so i still have to put the path or cd to where the file is. Is there a way to make /system my home?

no you cant make system your home, system is system, home is home. you can make a symlink if you are familiar with linux - might want to read up about shell commands

You *CAN'T* modify the / filesystem. It is part of your BOOT partition, which CANNOT be remounted rw. You would have to read, modify, and write the boot partition.

Maybe you're typing it in too literally. It should actually read like this:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
There was a typo with -oremount, there should be a space after -o.
Hope that helps.
PS. That command worked for me on a device where everything else failed.

I would recommended not posting in the g1 section. The Asus forums would be a lot more helpful.

Download EStrong File Manager and within the settings of it, enable mounting of the system as read/write.
Or, download Terminal Emulator and type this in:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Or, try typing this in terminal/cmd:
Code:
adb remount
Or, if you plan on doing it all from recovery you could do:
Code:
adb shell "mount system"
and then you could do it all from there.
Next time, please post in the proper forum.

Read-Only /system... i just deleted the file, tich push should update/replace and then it worked... only had this bug when i was trying to modify Trebuchet.apk (homescreen)

Hi guys
Not being a linux expert, i'm stuck with the following problem..
i'm using a program who uses low level adb commands to write on the phone extSdCard...
problem: this extSdcard is seen as a readonly filesystem.
What has to be done to make this FS RW instaed of RO ?
This does not happen under windows where I can write to the extSd without problems
thks in advance for the tip

Installing Maps w/ Navigation

Thanks to FollowingInsanity for editing the build.prop file to get it working corectly, and thanks to Maxisma for the Droid dump. Thanks to everyone else who pitched in on this whole thing. Really all I did was realize the exact line that needed to be changed....everyone else did the rest
Here are instructions on how I got the new maps w/ Navigation to work via adb. I'm running the official rooted 1.6 build, but this should work for anyone.
(if you don't know how you use adb, go to the here
Next, you need to uninstall the old maps.apk file and here's how I personally did it since you can't just go to "uninstall" from the Application Settings(these instructions start already in the ADB shell):
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cd system
# cd app
# rm xxxxxxx (this is whatever your maps.apk is titled. sometimes is just maps.apk, but it could also be com.android.google.maps.apk or somethin like that)
# exit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now you've uninstalled the google maps. You can then do these next steps outside of adb.(for instructions purposes i'm using my own Android location):
C:\android\tools> adb pull /system/build.prop C:\Android
C:\android\tools> adb pull /system/build.sapphire.prop C:\Android
The 2nd may not be may be build.trout.prop or something to that effect...build.xxxx.prop
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Next, change those 2 file names on your PC from build.prop to build-backup.prop and build.xxxx-backup.prop(if you have one) so that you don't lose those files in case anything stupid happens in the mean time lol.
Make a 2nd copy of build.xxxx-backup.prop and rename it is build.xxxx.prop. So now you should have a build.xxxx.prop AND a build.xxxx-backup.prop
Now you'll need the build.prop file to use
build.prop
(IF you are running a sapphire build, you can also use the build.sapphire.prop file located there and skip down to "re-loading prop files")
I saved that file to the same location that I saved my original files.
open build.xxxx.prop in notepad. look for where it says:
ro.build.description=kila-user 1.6 DRC83 14721 ota-rel-keys,release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=xxxxxxxxxx:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
# end build properties
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you'll need to delete the line that says ro.build.fingerprint=xxxxxxxxxx:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys but DO NOT delete the line that says #end build properties
replace the line you deleted with the following:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.0/ESD20/17572:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
Reloading Prop Files
next, back in your command line window do the following:
c:\android\tools> adb push c:\android\build.prop /system/
c:\android\tools> adb push c:\android\build.xxxx.prop /system/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then restart your phone
while the phone is restarting, go back and rename your build.prop and build.xxxx.prop files to build-update.prop and build.xxxx-update.prop, then change your build-backup.prop and build.xxxx-backup.prop to build.prop and build.xxxx.prop
After it restarts you'll want to locate your maps.apk file(the new one) and go back into your command line and type:
c:\android\tools> adb shell
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# exit
c:\android\tools> adb install c:\android\maps.apk
(install crap...if it doesn't install correctly then don't do whats below)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Go check your google maps, type in two locations and click "go" and on the next screen you should see a button that says "Navigate"
go back to your command line screen and type:
Sorry if this is confusing, anyone who could make it more simple, please feel free to give it a try, but this is the best I could offer so people wouldn't have to go looking though the whole think tank thread to get everything they need to get it working
IF THE INSTALL GAVE YOU AND INVALID_UPGRADE ERROR THEN TRY THIS:
(again these instructions are using my own android sdk location, replace the
c:\android\tools with YOUR sdk location
from the command line type the following:
c:\android\tools> adb shell
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# exit
c:\android\tools> adb pull /data/system/packages.xml c:\android\
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
BACK UP THIS FILE BEFORE EDITING IT
Once that's done, open that xml file in a text editor hit ctrl+f and search for maps, the first one will probably say auth.sitemaps, ignore that, keep searching untile you get to something to the effect of com.android.google.maps.apk or something like that. when you see that, you'll want to delete everything from "<packagename=" to "</package>" for the google maps app. BE VERY CAREFUL!!!! you don't want to accidentally delete something else, thus the reason for the back up.
after you've done that, go back to your command prompt and type:
c:\android\tools> adb push c:\android\ /data/system/packages.xml
c:\android\tools> adb install c:\android\maps.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it should then install perfectly fine. thats what I had to do to get it to work for me

I love you guys! will try this when I get home from work!

it does not appear to be 100% working....yet...

You might have to try editing your packages.xml file even though it didn't give you an install error. Also, if you push your original build.prop's back, you lose navigation after a few hours. I guess the quick solution to that would be to keep the new build.prop's, but I'm not sure what the problems that might or might not create for other apps.

I'm using CM-4.2.3.1 with the edited build.prop and the build.sapphire.prop files.

A quick shortcut is to drop the device from this command. As you're re-mounting, the kernel knows the device name. Like this:

Wow dude your the bomb, I did it a different way but it worked perfect. I just took a dount rom extracted it, deleted the maps.apk, then I took the droid dump maps app and put it into the donut rom. Then I made the changes to the build.trout.prop so that it recognized the g1 as the verizon phone, used your downloadable build.prop, of course I just deleted the original build.prop in the donut build, I resigned the donut rom, flashed it like it was brand new, and bingo everything worked perfectly. Wow good job dude. I would upload my rom but I dont want to get into any trouble.

I am using "AOSP1.6_r1.4+ADP DRD20 ROM". Maps on here is called "GoogleMaps.apk". I also do not have just a build.prop. I have a build.sapphire.prop and build.trout.prop. I modified both and replaced according to the first post. When I rebooted, GoogleMaps.apk was reinstalled, so I had to uninstall it again.
I did get the error described in post #8, but was able to get around it with the help of post #10.
But for some reason my network is completely down so I can't do nothing. Wifi and Cellular network. Hmmmm.
Edit: Replacing the files I backed up with the originals, brought my networks back.

How to root the Droid 2

All credit for the binary goes to Sebastian Krahmer at http://c-skills.blogspot.com/. Please see fit to donate via Paypal to [email protected]
If you want a simpler 'one-click' process, go to this thread: Easier 1-2-3 Droid 2 Root for Windows / Linux / Mac
***NOTE: Proceed at your own risk. I and the providers of this code are not responsible for anything you do to your phone!***
Setup:
- Install adb (here) and Motorola drivers for windows(32-bit or 64-bit)
- Download attached archive
- Extract to a directory, I used c:\Droid2Root
- Make sure you have USB degugging enabled
- Change connection to PC Mode
Process:
- Open command prompt
- cd c:/wherever-your-sdk-tools-folder-is
- adb devices (to verify the connection)
- cd c:/Droid2Root
- adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
- adb push su /sdcard/su
- adb push busybox /sdcard/busybox
- adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- adb shell
- cd data/local/tmp
- chmod 0755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- ./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- let the process run until it 'kicks' you out (may take a minute or two) to c:/Droid2Root
- cd c:/wherever-your-sdk-tools-folder-is
- adb kill-server
- adb devices (to verify the connection)
- adb shell (you should now have a # prompt, if not return to ./rage step above)
- mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
- cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
- cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/su
- cp /sdcard/busybox /system/bin/busybox
- chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
- chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
- mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
- exit
- exit
I'm sure there are certain steps that could be streamlined or eliminated, so please feel free to make a suggestion and I'll edit the post.
Additional thanks to @rainabba and AllDroid.org for their excellent Droid X rooting tutorial, which assisted me greatly in this process.

I wouldn't remove anything yet since we don't have a sbf file to recover from partial bricks. However, tethering and any other apps that require root can be used now.

I'm new to doing this all the adb way.
When you say extract to a directory what do you mean to extract. After it downloads the achive files its done.....
i understand the rest of the commands but im lost there

Hmm, alright, that's still worth it, will I lose my data/have to hard reset to root?

Right click the downloaded archive and "extract files". You need to do this so adb can push them to the phone.

I got as far as pushing super user su and busy box onto my phone but it says that system in read only.. how do i fix this?

Anybody actually try this?

Hello,
I am following your directions and when I get to the "adb push Superuser.apk" step I receive the following error:
"failed to copy 'Superuser.apk' to '/system/app/Superuser.apk': Read-only file system"
I get this same error for the other adb push steps that follow.
Edit: To verify, I get a # shell.
Edit 2: I tried pushing the Superuser.apk to /data/local/tmp then cp to /system/app/, this also popped up a read-only file system error.

I'm currently trying it.
I have a 64 bit driver on my computer that i used to use for my D1 but it doesn't recognize my D2 when doing adb devices and i cant install the 32 bit driver

Don't know if it will help you, but if it's anything like the DInc, you could just use the SDK's drivers and add a few device identifier lines to the INF file before installing them.

Fix Permitions from Terminal ;) (Help apps not to force close))

To install from CMD - Terminal
1. Download the fxps script. http://db.tt/zjiwMQw
2. adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl6 /system
3. adb push fxps /system/bin/fxps
4. adb shell busybox chmod 755 /system/bin/fxps
5. adb shell reboot
To Run it
1. adb shell fxps
2 adb shell reboot
To install from Terminal Emulator
"Download the fxps script and move it in your SD Card" http://db.tt/zjiwMQw
$ su
# adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl6 /system (Puts the system in R/W mode)
# cp /sdcard/fxps /system/bin/fxps (Copys the script from SD Card to bin directory)
# chmod 755 /system/bin/fxps (Gives root access to the script)
# reboot
To Run it open the Terminal Emulator and enter
$ su
# fxps (It will start... When it finish reboot)
# reboot
This Script is not mine i just find it and gine it to you in simple way
Thanks the Dev of this Script i hope to see it in Power Menu some day...
or you can use the Root Explorer to paste it in the /system/bin/ directory and
then with Root Explorer edit permitions by long touching the fxps file and tick all the permitions

Thanks!

Not all phones and versions of android have things mounted the same.
Limiting option when remounting would be best.
Simply change ro to rw and add the remount option
# mount -o rw,remount /system
Once you are done making changes, you should remount with the original readonly.
