Go to root explorer search for the file and see if the permission is correct, if not just change it in root explorer too and restart.
Try to replace it in root explorer. No need to do in twrp. Sometime it doesn't change if change it in twrp.

I copied the zip file to sd card and used recovery to install it.
Does not work and would not allow me to change permission on sd card.
App is in system/app but cann't change permission, hence not working. ANy clear cut help will be greatly appreciated.

You need to select RW instead of RO if using root explorer.

It is RW and I can't change the permission using root explorer. However I managed to change the permission of zip file using windows 7 permission. I will try again. Thanks for your help.

I am trying to make it work using htc sensation with ARHD XE ROM 3.6.7
Can anyone help me.
Where did you get the zip file? I am going to try install this version as the latest one in the HyperNoSense Rom keeps just dropping the keyboard VERY frustrating!
Replace it yourself then, it's not that hard.
the .so goes to
/system/libs
the apk goes to
/system/app
I don't know the permission for it and I don't pay attention to it. It just worked for me straight away

I have already tried this but no good. May be I should download file from different location and give it a try. Thanks for your help.
I got it working
I have managed to get it working by downloading the file from different place.
Copied the apk file to /system/app then changed permission and extracted .so file and copied to /system/lib, changed permission and restarted.

Hello Members
I'm kinda new to rooting, i just installed ics 4.0.4 rooted it and now im having problems changing permissions in root explorer. Im trying to install Talk_with_AV_no_wifi.zip. I'm following the instructions from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390818. But its not working for me.
Any help would be appreciated.
just a guess but mayybe becuase it is in the i-777 forum, it could have diff, libs or something. idk if im right or not.
It worked fine when i had gingerbread. Since ive had ics been having issues with root explorer. I got passed moving the file from sd to system/app with help from other threads but when i try to change permissions in root explorer i get the message.

If its a mod from a different phone it probably won't work. I am on my phone and can't look right now.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
The mod isn't phone specific, it worked when i had gingerbread on the same phone.
Check Superuser SU for any errors. It may have denied permissions. If so, just click the button at the bottom to enable RootExplorer to make SU changes.
Please help me...!!!
when i m trying to chage the permission in root explorer its showing me...'Permissions change was not successful. Please note that some file systems(e.g SD Card) do not allow permission changes.'
plz tell me how to solv it...I have LG P698 mobile phone...its hv android 2.3.4
I've got root, SuperSU, and it won't let me change the files at all. I can't rename the files. Just says, "HotspotProvision.akp cannot be renamed because the file system is read-only". I can't find a permissions option. Do I need the pay version of Root Explorer?
What am I missing here?
The filesystem needs mounted as read write

The problem maybe with supersu binaries, delete these files through twrp or cwm recovery
system/etc/install-recovey.sh
system/xbin/ksud, ku.sud and su
accidentally deleted system UI. on rooted tranformer tf700 4.2.1 I'm missing the status bars and home key etc... I assume I need to re-install the apk. Can someone post or send it to me... I would greatly appreciate it. I have a keyboard so I have limited functions... probably enough to get it installed.
thx!

OK in the attached zip you need to extract it to your sd and then copy the 2 files SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex into the /system/app folder and then set the permissions as 644 or rw-r--r--
Good luck!

You need to make sure you give esfile explorer root permissions. First turn on root explorer in tools on the left and then hit the word root explorer and set everything to RW - it'll work then.

I was able to get the files moved with ROM toolbox and get the permissions set but it will still not install? Any ideas?

You will need t reboot if you haven't already....
Other option is download the full rom from the ASUS website, unzip to the root of your internal sd and let that flash from stock recovery. You'll lose everything but it will get you back up.
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

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?

The issue I'm facing is whenever I try to copy or paste a file/folder to my external HDD, I get an error "Unable to create the directory in...".
But, I'm able to copy content from my HDD to my Phone(Android device running Marshmallow). I'm also able to read every file. Not sure why moving files from phone to external HDD is causing a problem.
I'm attaching some screenshots for you to understand better.
Please help!
1, have you granted root? You need it to write to SD card in most cases, try using a different file explorer, "Root Explorer" works a treat on MM Roms running supersu systemless root. 2, have you tried doing the same in recovery? Assuming you have a custom recovery.
+1 on Root Explorer, it should achieve that without issues.

Yes, I have root access(SuperSU 2.76) and TWRP 3.0.2-0 as well. I've granted root access and as far as I remember, I also had this problem with ES File Explorer. I haven't tried it on recovery though, will catch on it if Root Explorer doesn't work.

Wow! Root Explorer is one fine thing. I got it working. Actually it was originally mounted as r/o and no other file manager has that option to change it to r/w, but Root Explorer. I can finally move files seamlessly.
Conclusion- Root Explorer is the best for such stuff.
