Installing Thai Fonts

I'm trying to install Thai fonts in my X10 (rooted) using Type Fresh (so I can learn it) but my permissions keep going back to Read Only (Root Explorer). I have seen to follow step 4 in Bluemoko's thing but it is all in Thai so I cant find anything.
Another suggestion was to unzip ฟ้อนไทยลงใน sd card หรือยังครับ but again where do I find it and what should I do?
Can anyone help?
Cheers

did you try to change mount R/O or mount R/W before you wanna copy or paste the file?

I have been using Type Fresh and Root Explorer so I have mounted the directory R/W after copying but the directory was already R/W before. Explorer then says that Typefresh has superuser access then after I reboot the directory is R/O again.

You can download the Thai fonts from a link found here:

And I installed the Thai fonts using Font Changer.

I installed root explorer too but i cant get the system file

I can't recall if root explorer has the option to set the home folder (phone is off, can't see), but it's easy enough, no matter what your home folder is. at the top, if there is a "parent" folder, you will see an unnamed folder, called "..."
that is your place to go "one folder up"
example:
/ is your main folder that contains all other data and folders in your phone.
/system is your system folder.
if you see something like this:
/mnt/sdcard/external_sd
then you are browsing files on your sd card.
let's say you have these folders on your sd card as you browse using root explore:
()...
()adobe
()ebooks
()Titanium
click on the ()... to go up to the next folder. when you reach the main root, you'll see something like this (not exact):
()cache
()data
()mnt
()sys
()system
I can't make it any simpler to find than that. good luck...

[Q] Where is system/ lib and app folders?

Attached Google Talk files that worked for me (from TouchWiz 1.0.2 ROM). Put the lib file into /system/lib and the apk into /system/app. Change perms to 744.

I am trying to follow these instructions however I can not find the /system/lib and /system/app folders. The Google Talk stock app vanished when I flashed TCP's rom on the phone, so I am trying to reinstall it this way, since it is not on the market.
Where are these files usually located? Do I need to format my files differently or something?

/system/app
/system/lib
ANYTHING that is not /mnt/sdcard (/sdcard) or /ext-sd requires ROOT access and an app that will look at ROOT
ES File explorer or root explorer
you WILL NOT see these folders by just plugging into your computer, nor will you see it with basic file managers

Thanks for the help,
Ok i downloaded ASTRO file manager, but when i try to paste into the app folder it gives me an error message that I have a read only file system...

Make sure you have r/o where it says r/o or r/w. this way you can paste it.

I know I'm VERY! late with this answer, but I have to correct you. With zArchiver (file-explorer and zip/7-zip app) you can access androids system folders. On a S III mini I can copy the ringtones/notification-sounds or the start sound( on the micro-SD-card for example). It is possible to copy other files too, but that didn't make any sense for me. btw: phone is not rooted.
P.S. Also worked on a non-rooted Huawei Y 625 @ Android 4.4.2 . Of course I can not copy files INTO the system folder(s) but read-acces is definitely possible without root permissions.
Greetz HiddenAssassin2306

Access to /data is forbidden in Android unless you have root access.
/system is read only, and limited.
My quote from above did say you wouldn't see any of these from a computer. And the OP was trying to place files in /system, which is read only.
Is there some reason you felt the need to bring up a 3 year old thread to say I'm wrong, when in this thread, regarding the original post, I am 100% correct?

You need to delete some of the apps first because the rom is too big..
Change the keyboard, install a new one and delete the old one..also delete the launcher & use a small size one..
delete ringtones from system/media (use link2sd+root explorer for that)
And install light gapps from here..
Read the thread again before posting...people there have mentioned how to flash gapps..

In system/app delete these:
CMWallpapers.apk
Development.apk
Email.apk
Exchange2.apk
Galaxy4.apk
HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk
LiveWallpapers.apk
LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
QuickSearchBox.apk
Rom Manager
SoundRecorder.apk
SpareParts.apk
VideoEditor.apk
In system/media/audo remove ringtones.
Some of these applications is not in the ROM, but I do not know which.
What's up, remove it and Add to archive with winrar or 7z and make .zip file.

Thanks for your reply..

another Problem
Sorry, but i have an other problem in the same rom, the flash player don't work.

Press the left button and in menu choose Manage Applications and you see how much free memory you have on the internal memory.

The space not enough in lib folder not in all internal memory!!

I do not know. I've not have such a case. The important thing is that before you paste the file in
Root Explorer to set the R / O instead of the R / W.

Yes before i paste the file in Root Explorer i set the R / O instead of the R / W.
I also tried to replace the lib folder already present in the internal memory with the folder that I downloaded from the post, but then I can't change the permissions of the file...

Are you accidentally changed places of files on SD Card?

In Root Explorer copy file and go in data/data/flashe player and paste there. Copy from original place. From maps where is installation package for flashe player.

The original paack is zip file, i extract this and copy with root explorer but the file there isn't in lib folder!!

http://www.4shared.com/zip/S1NDMD9R/Compressed.html
Extract .zip and files save in folder named "lib" without quotation marks.

[FIX][LEAKED 4.4]External Sdcard Mount Perms fix

Okay, so one of the issues currently with the leaked firmware is that some apps (e.g titanium backup, file explorers, etc) cannot save files to the extsdcard due to a incorrect parameter in the platforms.xml
So here is the fix:
Method 1
1.) Download the extsdcardfix-flashable.zip below and save to sdcard
2.) Reboot to recovery (CWM/TWRP)
3.) Flash the zip
4.) Reboot
Method 2
1.) Download the platform.xml.zip attatchment and extract
2.) Navigate to ~/system/etc/permissions
3.) Replace the platforms.xml with this one
4.) Set permissions as RW-R--R-- (644)
5.) Reboot and test if apps now have access to external storage
And NOTE this may or may not work so do so at your own risk!

Eh? those permissions not equivalent. Which should it be ?
rwxrwxrwx == 777
rw-r--r-- == 644

I set permission as the original file was...
rw-r--r-- == 644

I use "ES File Explorer". The best Tool for Filemanipulation (copy, paste, delete) I know.

Can You upload me original platform.xml? I change file and i have error...

after i replaced file i missed that permissions changed... then i had to reset default to get everything working :/ bluetooth stopped working and i had terrible glitches and freezes.. even when i changed to 644... so secont time i just added media_rw line by editing permissions.xml and now it worked flawlessly
I noticed that even now when i have rw acces to sdcard not everything is working as in 4.3 - for example solid explorer does not see by default external sdcard :/ but it is only beta so i can live with it

Works like a charm!
Thx for this

Works. thank you so much

Yes...it works!!!!
I had problem before with Sygic, now, everything works just fine..
Thank you very much!!!

Works perfect! This is what I needed to really give CM a try.
I was able to get my Go Backup file and restore my apps.

Sorry,
But how can I do the step 4?
I changed the file, but I don't know how change these permissions...
Could someone explain it to me, please?
Ps.: sorry for bad english.

What explorer are you using? On most of them you just have to long press the file and it will display the menu option (copy, move, delete, PERMISSIONS).
Click on permissions and you will find where to check the option you need to make RW-R-R.
I use Root Explorer by the way.

Ok,
So I change only the permissions of platforms.xml file?
Is that right?
