Yo, I'm on my way back to getting a stock HTC One Mini.
When I was booted in the TWRP Recovery I discovered that there is a supersu folder (with 4 files: 99SuperSUDaemon, install-recovery.sh, su and Superuser.apk) in the root tree (/). Should it be there? If not, how can I get rid of it?
I've already tried deleting it but it comes back every single time after I reboot.
Thanks a lot,
Jonny

Hello everyone. I have been working with android for a 6 months now and still cannot figure out what im doing wrong to get my permissions to work correctly. I have installed ADB and successfully rooted my MT3G Slide. I have been trying lately to figure out why i cannot manually configure A2SD. I have gone through both ADB Shell and Terminal under Su to try to mkdir /system/apps but it will give me a problem like my system is not allowing me to rewrite or its copy protected. I have tried to remount and it claims its successful. Another symptom i experience is not being able functionally use the rom manager or restart in clockwork recovery after i have flashed a rom. I always have to wipe the devices before i can loop hack back into clockwork mode. I have tried to fix permissions and restart in recovery through rom manager and it just brings up a question mark ontop of an image of a phone. I have been trying most recently to move a file through terminal to another name and replace the old with a new of the same name. It says the directory is not empty when i try to modify this file. So Anyone think they might know a solutions to these issues or hopefully all of them in one simple problem i cant seem to figure out.
download & install 'root explorer' for your phone from the android market (or your Pc, and put it on your phone) , grant it superuser permissions from superuser on your phone, open it up, and there's an option to make the phones memory R/W. (Its R/O as default which may be why your having permission issues)
Saying that Im yet to figure out adb's permissions fully..
Be careful with root explorer though, its a very intrusive programme which can screw up everything
Root explorer cost money... is there another program that allows me the same option. I have been using astro file manager, any way to do it on that one?
Hello,
I started experimenting with my Android yesterday when I found out about metamorph which requires rooted phone and busybox..
I managed to root the phone but couldnt install the busybox with the application from the market - it says that busybox was not found..
Then I installed the SDK platform, and wanted to do it with adb
I downloaded busybox ... tar.bz2 file and unrared it into SDK/tools and tried pushing it to my android to /system/local by doing:
adb push /Users/../android/platform-tools/busybox /data/local
but adb pushed the subfolders (children) to the /data/local folder instead of the folder with childen folders itself.
Now I wonder:
1. how to remove all those junk files?
2. am I doing the right thing? should I copy the tar.bz2 without unraring it? what is the right procedure?
is there any easier way to accomplish this?
Thanks for help
One way to get busybox is with titanium backup. Install the app open then menu*problems*Yes, do it.

This wont work with my telephone - HTC Desire
I just installed jelly bean on my Samsun GS3 SCH-R530U, and now whenever I Odin CWM, it will boot only one time when I boot to it, after that I get a fallen over robot icon from samsung, and their old boot menu. This means I have to flash it every time I want to backup or restore a nandroid backup. Is there some way I can get past this? Do I need a newer CWM? Has Samsung found a way to disable CWM?
try this
as a nexus s owner got this issue in past, seems to be caused cause from GB on in /system/etc there is a install-recovery.sh wich overwrite all the recovery you have installed every time your phone boot up, just solved checking for this file and deleted or renamed (as you want) so in booting the CWM won't be deleted and overwrited by the original one (wich is called install-recovery.sh)
To be clear using root explorer os similar point to this file in /system/etc, then delete or rename, if it tells you can't do cause is read only file system switch from R/W to R/O
Not entirely sure but I think flashing recovery.IMG file on Mobile Odin solved the issue for me.
International S III 16GB / Dualboot 4.1.2 Stock & Cyanogenmod 10.1 / Gokhan's SK
Worthy path to pursue

This sounds like a good path to pursue, but I can't find any "install-recovery.sh" anywhere in the system. Could it be named something else, but have the same function?
Accidentally found a workaround -PROBLEM SOLVED 4 me
I found that after using clockworkmod recover, if I remove battery, re-insert battery and then boot phone in normal way, instead of using CWM menu to reboot, it doesn't get over-written. I put in my Title that my problem was solved. Some forums have some other way to indicate this, but I couldn't figure out how on this forum.
I have rooted my P3113 and have clockwork mod recovery 6.0.2.7 because that one is the only one to work properly. also i have superuser (chainfire) installed. my su binary has been updated and i have flashed my ROM with cyanogenmod 10.1.3 stable. I should be able to copy and/or move files to the root folder. yet it says that it has read only permissions. i tried to chmod it to be able to write to it but the it errors and says read only file? is there any way to fix this? or a way to force it into the root folder?
What are you using the move/copy the files? Is it a file explorer app? Have you tried moving files using ADB?
