Hi
I have Huawei u8150, Android 2.2, Rooted with z4root.
I want to give widgetsoid access to toggle data using the android apn toggle.
The instructions are:
____
Just put the Widgetsoid apk on /system/app folder
Work only with ADB connected to the phone (doesn't work if you use root explorer or other apps like this) :
* Remount /system as read/write
* adb push Widgetsoid.apk /system/app/Widgetsoid.apk
* Remount /system as read-only
_____
Can someone tell me what I can type in terminal emulator window to achieve this. I can't use adb as it won't recognise my u8150 (It worked fine with my i9000)
Thanks

PS: Apologies if the wrong forum, but there were only 4 specific android forums, so i thought the general forum would be the best to post this type of question in.

Thanks
I had tried
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# CHMOD 777 /SYSTEM
the above works but if i try to push i get
# push
push: not found
I also tried the above then switched over to es-file explorer and was able to copy + pasted the widgetsoid.apk file from my sdcard into the /system/app directory. It correctly pasted the file, but when I clicked on widgetsoid.apk to install the apk i got an error.
"Parse Error: There is a problem parsing the package."
I wouldn't chmod /system ... just leave the permissions the same.
cp /sdcard/downloads/widgetsoid.apk /system/app/
Chmod 644 /system/app/widgetsoid.apk
No need to click install or anything like that... just reboot after copying it to /system/app.

push is an adb command. You'll want to put the apk on the sdcard then use:
cp /sdcard/Widgetsoid.apk /system/app/
That will copy it to the directory.
Nevermind, do what jeffv2 said.
THANKS! it's working now.
I had placed it in /system/app and did a reboot and it still hadn't installed
then i renamed the file from Widgetsoid2.x.apk to Widgetsoid.apk and also did chmod 644, after a reboot it has successfully installed.
I think it was the chmod 644 to the apk file that allowed it to be installed
Many thanks!
Trying to install GFE on a previously rooted but now unrooted phone. It's failing because it thinks I'm still rooted.
I have unrooted, removed Superuser (the apk and from the App list), etc.
What the hell is it finding?
Maybe su or busybox in the xbin folder?

Yes. They are both there. But how do I get rid of them now that I'm not rooted? ADB shell errors out with read only file system. If I re-root and delete them, then how do I make the file system read only again?
Also, do I need to get rid of /system/bin/su or is that part of stock Android?
Thanks so much for any help.
So all you did was delete the .apk? Download Super 1-click, re-root, then use it to unroot.

I rooted by flashing the update.zip and then unrooted by removing the Superuser app and then changing the file system to read only.
I thought SuperOneClick only worked with FroYo on the G2X and not with Gingerbread.
Success!!!!!!!! Many thanks to jboxer and others that pointed me in the right direction.
Here's what you need to do for anyone else facing this issue:
1. Boot into Clockwordmod Recovery and then connect your phone to the computer. CWM Recovery will be seen on ADB with root permissions.
2. Before issuing the following commands, after your phone is connected, use the menu in CWM Recovery to mount the system. If you don't mount the system you are seeing CWM's mini Android system and not the phone's.
3. Issue the following commands from your computer:
#adb uninstall com.noshufou.android.su
#adb shell rm /system/app/Superuser.apk
#adb shell rm /system/bin/su
#adb shell rm /system/xbin/su
#adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/psneuter
#adb shell "find /system/xbin -type l | xargs rm"
#adb shell rm /system/xbin/busybox
4. Use the CWM Recovery menu to unmount system.
5. Reboot your phone.
Before you attempt to re-run the Good setup, check one last time to make sure that su is gone from /system/bin and /system/xbin and that Superuser does not show up either in your Apps or when you go to Settings->Manage Apps. If any of this is still present you need to redo what is written above as the Good setup will fail.
I also recommend doing a Nandroid before unrooting, a second Nandroid after unrooting but before installing Good, and then a third Nandroid immediately after successfully installing Good.
Hi,
I recently pushed a folder (Download) to the sdcard of my OnePlus One via ADB in recovery. Now, I can't delete any of the files inside that folder via any (root) browser.
How can I fix that?
Thanks.
If you are unlocked, install Root Explorer, or the like, and check the directory permissions. Mine is set to 777, and I can delete it if I wish. Or you can change the permission of the files inside, and delete those, as you wish.
There are likely adp commands, as well. Perhaps someone will show with that know-how.
I tried that, though it unfortunately doesn't work via root browser.
I'll try it via adb later today.
adb remount (to gain rw-access to root partition)
adb shell rm -f <path to file> (to delete the apk)
Hello everyone,
This method I'm going to write is tried on my own Lenovo A7600-H Kitkat 4.4.2 tablet, which I did not flash because I'm not sure about stock roms available on the net. If I had found a reliable rom I wouldn't be able learn this
To remove this virus you need to install busybox, Terminal emulator, Root explorer pro and you must have Supersu not superuser which is installed by Kingoroot. If you have rooted your device with kingoroot, so you need to change that.
Here is how to change that:
Google this: how to get ride and replace kinguser with supersu app (Follow first zidroid link)
I'm not able to submit links so im going to write the exact apps with developer names to download from Playstore.

Once you have installed everything here is what to do in steps:
[Note: USB DEBUGGING MUST BE ENABLED Turn on Usb Debugging by going to settings> developer options> Usb debugging]
1) Turn off wifi/3G/4G, and then go to settings> apps> all> disable time service and monkey test. (If already frozen via titanium backup or other app) skip this.
2) Open Root explorer go to system/xbin and see if there is any file starting with a dot (eg: .ext.base) also note that every (.) file has diff permission then the rest of other files. So just remember those files with dots because those are the one that you're going to remove in terminal emulator.
3) Go back to system and then go to Priv-app folder and look for these two files
[1] cameraupdate.apk [2] providerCertificate.apk and also notice permission of these two files are different then the rest of Apks so these two are the base of MT TS virus and needs to be deleted.
4) Open Terminal Emulator OR if you have access to your device via adb from a computer.
5) WHAT TO TYPE IN TERMINAL EMULATOR or ADB (CMD Windows)
adb devices (Type this line if you're using adb Windows)
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cd system/priv-app
chattr -iaA providerCertificate.apk
rm providerCertificate.apk
chattr -aA cameraupdate.apk
rm cameraupdate.apk
cd ..
cd system/xbin
chattr -iaA .b
rm .b
chattr -iaA .ext.base
rm .ext.base
chattr -iaA .sys.apk
rm .sys.apk
[NOTE: If you are using older version than KK you need not to type priv-app just type cd system/app]
6) Please make sure you type the file name correctly just as providerCertificate C is capital otherwise permission wont change.
7) Exit Emulator/ADB
8) Go to settings> apps> all> send me the screenshot if you have Monkey test or Time Service there
9) I'm 100% sure if you've followed everything as I mentioned you are good as new and you don't need to flash.
10) I'm not a developer and That's it!

If you don't have a priv-app folder than you are not on Kitkat and you have to delete files from system/app folder.
Well anyway you have to delete cameraupdate.apk and providerCertificate.apk
and you are deleting SettingProvider.apk which I never said you have to.
Please look closely

Dearest,
It is 4.0.4 ics , in app folder there is no providerCertificate.apk but SettingProvider.apk which is newer (as per date also AVG prompted it as malware and tried to uninstall but failed) than the original SettingProvider.apk ,i tried to insert screenshots,but prevented by forum thanks if you may share with me your email address i may be able to post
command : chatter... gives error message, is there different procedure for ics ?
Secondly,
I have searched out that karbonn A 30 is a rebranded version of vsun I 1S ,and original rom based on kitkat is available on their site, is it safe to flash vsun rom on it or shall I go for abacada rom available on xda?

Send me screenshot or personally talk to me on www(.)facebook(.)com/99nuh
Btw you are unable to remove providersettings.apk because you might be typing wrong attributes for it.
To see its attribute cd system/app [enter]
then type lsattr to look for attributes of providersettings.apk
and then use those attributes with - and rm that file.
And If you want to flash your phone/tablet go with your brand official rom.

Forgive me, but your statement quoted above is the only one that makes sense here. You were booted from Security Discussion thread and you move here.
You confuse people, give nonsensical advice and don't seem to know what you are talking about. First of all the chattr command is not supposed to work on Android ext4, so, no wonder people can't remove files this way. And anyway, your prolong instructions are not worth the "paper" they are written on. Even if someone would succeed following them, there is no guarantee they remove the virus. The proper way is to completely reformat your phone including internal SD and external SD, which you do in recovery by formatting System, Cache, Dalvik cache, Data and both sd cards. Period. And for the future, don't install any third party apps unless you compile them from source by yourself or someone you trust.
OK

If you are having this error it means you have installed busybox app not busy box.
To do this open busybox app in your device, select busybox ver1.2, select intall location /system/xbin/ and tap install.
Then try the procedure

Get a custom rom. If there is no custom rom, then do a factory reset and then format external and internal sd cards.

I can't find a custom recovery either, so only stock recovery with not many options. :crying:
A few weeks ago one of my important apps started crashing on open.
Since I have important informaiton saved on that app I need to obtain it.
Is there a way to access that package folder (and that app is not debuggable) with adb or shell?
When I try to access via adb and shell the result it Permission denied.
I can't root the phone, so this is out of the quesiton.
I'm using Google Pixel 1 with Android 10 Build - Build/QP1A.191005.007.A3)
There isn't any way to access /data/data/ as a normal user or shell user, the only user able to access that is root, at least according to the permissions.
You could try to backup using "adb backup package", then you could apply this backup back on another phone or on this same app after reinstalling it.

Temporarily root phone's Android, means add su cmdlet what is suitable, and then mount the partition in question as RW by means of ADB applying su.
Example:
Code:
adb devices
adb push <SU-BINARY> / data/local/tmp/
adb shell "chmod +x /data/local/tmp/su"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/su -c 'mount -t auto -o rw,remount <PARTITION-IN-QUESTION>'"
adb pull "<DIRECTORY-TO-PULL>" <LOCATION-ON-PC>
