I'm having some trouble with the mount command. More specifically when trying to mount the system without going into shell. It worked fine on 2.1, but on 2.2 I get an error. The command I'm typing is:
./adb shell mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
The error I get is:
mount: Operation not permitted
However, when I go into shell su, and just type the mount command, it works fine. I need to get the mount command to work outside of shell for a bash script that I am writing. If I enter shell in the script, the script does not finish executing, and I cannot enter commands into the adb shell prompt. Any idea?
I have a Samsung Fascinate running EB01 and the phone has been rooted. I'm also doing this on a mac.
Thanks.

Hi, what does the following output?
adb shell id
Also, what about just
adb remount

I updated my rom and there are some omitted apps that I would like to get back into system/apps/ for example VoiceDialer.apk, but I cannot seem to get them back on. I am using Fresh Rom 0.4 and the phone is obviously rooted. maybe I am doing something wrong in adb shell but I keep getting one of 2 different erors. Either permission denied or adb not found. Thank you in advance for your help.

1) Permission denied - make sure that when you do an adb shell, you're root (have the # prompt) and make sure you've mounted /system as rw (adb remount)
2) adb not found - make sure there's only one adb.exe on your computer and that it's the one from the SDK and that the SDK's /tools directory is in your path (to be safe, you can always just run adb from that directory)

1. the procedure I used is this: from the cmd prompt in the androidsdk/tools/ directory:
adb shell
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cd /system/app
# adb push VoiceDialer.apk system/app
but its a no go. Can't understand why.
BTW, I have the VoiceDialer.apk file in the androidsdk/tools folder just to make the push easier.
Ok, here is a screen shot from my command prompt window. I know someone knows what the hell I'm doing wrong. Just wanna get the damn voice dialer back on my phone. Please help, thank you.

When I do that I get permission denied or something to that effect.
Yeah there's a post about this in the Fresh thread.
The most straightforward way is this:
Reboot to the recovery partition.
adb shell into the phone.
Issue the following command to mount the system partition:
mount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Type exit to exit the shell.
Then do:
adb push c:\directory-with-the-apks /system/app

Thank-you, I will give it a try.
Whenever i type:
adb shell "mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system"
i get the error: mount: Operation not permitted
adb shell "su mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl6 /system"
i get Permission Denied
can anyone tell me what to do??????
Try to get "shell root" with Superoneclick. Then try again.
Happens the same with me. I was adviced to flash the last fugumod (Which also speeds up your phone) but haven't had time to try.

Because fugumod has allready rooted shell. You can use superoneclick to gain temporal shell root. After a restart will be lost.

For the 1st, you are not root.
For the second, you should not put 2 commands in 1. Enter 1 command by 1.
Code:
adb shell
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl6 /system
or if you want to put 2 or more commands, add a ";" between each command :
Code:
adb shell "su; mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl6 /system"
but you will have to send CTRL+C as qtadb doesnt seem to like 2 commands in 1.
What if I'm root and still get the same error?
so I'm new to scripting, and I have a TON of lg optimus S's to root for work. So I figured I'd write a script to make life easy. I know all the shell commands are correct as if I manually type everything in it works. What happens is it gets through gingerbreak exploit and when the prompt returns # - everything seems to go to hell.
Here is my script I am using. I'm using Kubuntu 11.04 writing it in Kate, name of my script is Script2 and I'm executing it in bash via $sh Script2
echo "removing TMP directory";adb shell rm -r /data/local/tmp
echo "creating TMP directory";adb shell mkdir /data/local/tmp
echo "pushing gingerbreak";adb push gingerbreak /data/local/tmp/gingerbreak
echo "CD TMP";adb shell cd /data/local/tmp
echo "CHMOD TMP";adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/*
echo "running gingerbreak";adb shell /data/local/tmp/gingerbreak &
sleep 32
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
adb shell cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
adb shell mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/xionia_cwma_12518.6.img
adb shell reboot recovery
I've tried with out sleep command and also with out "&" at the end of gingerbreak, and when I do that and it returns # it seems like no commands will work, even if I type them in it returns just a blank line with out #.
With that current script after sleep 32, it returns #, few seconds later it tries to mount and I get (including the end of gingerbreak exploit).
[!] dance forever my only one
# mount: Operation not permitted
Script2: 9: cannot create /system/bin/flash_image: Directory nonexistent
Unable to chmod /system/bin/flash_image Read-only file system
mount -o: permission denied
reboot: Operation not permitted
then it returns me to bash$
Thanks!
So something interesting, I've been playing with this for awhile, and I took everything out past the
adb shell /data/local/tmp/gingerbreak
it seems if I run it as
bash$ adb shell /data/local/tmp/gingerbreak
vs
bash$ adb shell
$ cd /data/local/tmp
$ ./gingerbreak
when # is returned, the first option won't take any commands its like it hangs, if I type out the next command it will just return a blank line with out $ or #, I have to forcibly end the process by CTRL+C and it will return me to bash, if I do the second option it works and I can enter the next command in and it takes and returns me to #. Anyone know why this is? I'm pretty sure this is the problem.
I would happily use the second option, but I'm not sure how to get the script to take any android shell commands without a "adb shell" infront. If anyone knows how to get around this, that would be awesome =)

I'm trying to adb push a .apk file into my phones /system/app folder. These are the steps I am taking in trying to do this, but I am getting a permission denied response at the "adb push" part. Oh and my phone is under the "internet connection" setting. The other two (mass storage, charge only) wont let my phone enter debugging mode.
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
exit
exit
adb push C:\Myfile.apk /system/app
Also when I enter the "mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system" command, It pops up twice but without the # symbol, not sure if there is an error there but it ends up looking like this:
Code:
C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tool>adb shell
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
# exit
exit
$ exit
exit
C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tool>
I think you would want it to be on charge only, as the other options are utilizing the USB while charge only does not. That is how my setup functions... I did have the permission denied error before when I was using Ubuntu 10.04. Are you sure you have an up to date version of JDK? And the USB rules?
your command should be
adb push C:\Myfile.apk /system/app/myfile.apk
you have also to run adb as root or enable rw for /system/app
Basically:
______________________________________________
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
chmod 777 /system/app
exit
exit
adb push C:\Myfile.apk /system/app/myfile.apk
________________________________________________
should do the job
@imheroldman- I tried leaving it on charge only, but the devices wasnt found when I ran the adb devices command, and yes the JDK is the latest.
@djodjoni -Hey I tried your suggestions and it worked.
Thanks to the both of you for helping.
FWIW, I got permission denied errors when I tried to push busybox via adb. I just downloaded a busybox .zip and flashed it via TWRP, it seems to have worked, and the busybox app recognizes it as installed.
I can't use adb push. It says Read Only file system when I try to push things to /sdcard. Don't know why

Use this:
Code:
[path] > adb shell
# mount -o rw,remount rootfs /
# chmod 777 /sdcard
# exit
[path] > adb push [file path on your PC] /sdcard

Make sure you have phone detected and correct drivers and adb installed.
Once ADB is functioning properly, then let's PUSH files!
First let's make sure adb is running and make sure adb see's the phone. Please run these commands:
Code:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices
The output after devices will be a serial number, if this looks good, move on. First you need to make
sure the apk you want to push is in the same directory as adb.exe
once you have moved the apk to the adb.exe directory, then run the following:
Code:
[FONT=Verdana]adb remount
adb push myfile.apk /system/app/
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/myfile.apk
adb reboot[/FONT]
adb remount mounts the phone as read write so you can write thru adb, it will be automatically unmounted when phone disconnected or rebooted
assuming your APK you want moved is called "myfile.apk"
adb push file_myfile.apk /system/app/ this command moves the "myfile.apk" (the apk you want moved) to the /system/app/ directory on your phone
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/myfile.apk this command sets the correct file permissions for APKs
adb reboot this reboots the phone so that the new apk can be detected
Good luck

sounds like you possibly do not have proper permission for the user you are logged into your computers operating system with. make sure you have the proper permissions and rights to access the folders you are trying to access. For a quick fix you can try loging into the system using the root user or administrator of the system that you are using and then try the adb commands. and you can just do a quick su switch from the Computer OS's konsole/terminal.

OMG thanks, mine wasn't working because something as simple as that!
So I am trying to make a batch file that automatically flashes a custom bootanimation from my computer and I am having trouble with these commands.
adb wait-for-device shell "su -c 'ls /system/media'"
adb wait-for-device shell "su -c 'mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system'"
adb wait-for-device shell "su -c 'rm /data/media/bootanimation.zip1'"
Bascially I want to have the adb shell enter superuser mode, remount system in read write mode and delete the existing bootanimation.zip
Whenever I try and run this it says permission denied.
Please post your question in Android General so that the right experts may be of help.
Thread Closed. Thank you.
