I have been trying to for over a week in the captivate forum to get ANYONE to try and help me and so far no one will. So i'm really hoping someone will take the time, i will PAY YOU UP FRONT over paypal to help me. I am DEAD SERIOUS.
Have a captivate, but this problem is not exclusive to this phone. This error has happened on just about any/every android phone there is.
Phone was working fine, have been putting any and all custom roms on that i wanted, but went to install a new custom rom (cog4), and it fails every single time at system/xbin/su. Now ANY rom i install (custom), gives me that same error. NO CUSTOM ROM WILL INSTALL. THEY ALL FAIL. I have flashed back to stock a million times, wiped, re-partitioned the sd card, master cleared, and done all of those in every combination possible. The ONLY rom i can put on here is the one i had RIGHT before this problem started (cog3.04). Only roms that can be flashed via odin will go on my phone now. All zip files fail.
I am not a noob and know my way around a computer. I promise if someone tries to help me i will be very prompt in my responses and will try ANYTHING that you ask me to. I have been googling for over a week hours a day, i am never gonna resolve this issue unless someone with the know-how helps me Every time this topic is brought up on any forum on the internet, the problem never gets solved and it fades away....there is no answers out there. Someone who knows this stuff is my only hope
I will pay you to help me even if your troubleshooting does not work
Just out of curiosity, did you open Rom Manager once you installed it to grant it superuser rights? Also, make sure you Click the top link in Rom Manger and choose your phone. "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
Yes tim i have done that.
I sent you a private message -- here is the same:
Have you tried adb root - and then from / rm -rf * and see if you can wipe all clean. Ofcourse if the issue is the partition, then this won't help. Also I have never tried this - as this has never been an issue for me.

could something like this work for me?

I am definitely rooted and have su permissions, but it will not let me access SYSTEM from recovery or when the phone is on. Says access denied.

I read that post but the update-script in Cog4 doesn't have those lines. You could in theory edit the script so that it just has those three lines but I'm not sure that would be sufficient to install Cog4. That may be a question for DG.
Do you have the root explorer app?

Not sure as this looks like a patch and specifically asks for no wipe. Also my knowledge is limited as to what harm you can do that will make the phone unusable -- BUT you are already into that realm . Perhaps someone with deeper specific experience can answer this????
Open Root Explorer and remount R/W. Switch to the system partition and look at the permissions on bin and xbin. They should both be rwxr-xr-x

using adb remount will set the /system partition as read/write. This may help.

LOL, of course......
If it doesn't install, try installing Terminal Emulator from the Market
Ok so inside of the system folder they both have the permissions set to what you wrote.... .
There is only a bin in the folder right before the system folder...should there be an xbin there too?
Seriously where are they? I mean we can't even get a working file explorer!
I'm not a big app user, but the two I want are "windows explorer, and Sirius satalite radio or flash.
Anyone have any thoughts?
rebump, im also interested.

They don't want people to have access to the file system. If you get a file explorer, it will be homebrew.

[ROOT GUIDE] How to root the FeiTeng mini N9300/Spreadtrum 6820 !!!
Hi All,
A lot of people out there buy Chinese phones for a good amount of reasons.For one they are cheap and
usually easy to work with.But there comes a time when that isn't enough resulting in many people looking
for ways to hack or the Android term "root" there phone to get the most out of it.Unfortunately they come
across many problems such as No brand name,Unknown brand name,or just no info about it whatsoever.
That is why i have created this guide on rooting the N9300
DISCLAIMER!! This method generally will work with any N9300 android phone i just might take
a few trys and will not harm it.HOWEVER if you do brick your phone i am not responsible.(See pics for details)
WARNING!!! Rooting a device will void ANY warranty you may have.

How to Root:
Lets begin with the actual rooting process

2. Go to Setting -> Applications -> Development -> then enable USB debugging
3. Open & run Z4Root
4. Click Temporary Root option, wait till its done successfully and open it again
5. After doing the Temporary Root with no problems,Choose the Permanent Root option
6. Wait and see till it's done
7. After them Permanent Root has done, your device will reboot itself
8. After reboot has done, you will find Superuser has installed on your device
9. It's really easy & safe. But if it not successful & Superuser is not installed, try restarting your device and try from the first step
10. Please remember, this method is for the >>>> Mini <<<< N9300 :angel:
Info

If you use Root Explorer you should be able to still copy the file to your sd card.
Then you can send it to me and i can see if you are able to root it and if there is
any backup firmware for your device. :good:

There is 2 colors on N9300 (Black and White)
I found the firmware for black. Click here for Download
IF you use in on white it wont work. What color do you have?
My advice is to just root it. It wont brick it and then tell me if you are
successful or not. If not i will think of another way.
Hi guys,
Can anyone please provide me stock 'libart.so'? I used the whatsapp ART fix for it and now can't update to 4.4.1 because of modified libart.so.
Thanks.

Remove the hacked file, copy the original? Needs root in Android or a custom recovery, however.

You need to remount the system partition in read-write mode. By default it's set to read-only.
most of members the old method didn't work with him so i decide to make a pre rooted rom
*Do It AT YOUR OWN RISK!* I am not responsible for ANY damage to your device

Tried many times, unable to get past the mounting of /system. Hard lock-up.
Edit: Had root on 7.0 finally. Looked like I was using the wrong sboot. I have too many...
Note: Tried to update superSU after I had everything how I wanted it. Lost root. Had to start over. Use caution...
I have gotten my phone rooted thanks for your help.
Now we need to find a way to bypass the system rw,remount freeze, which I think is being controlled by smu_protection or something like that.

I think you phone now is rooted and you can mount system as rw just start adb
write adb shell then write su it will ask to get root from your device and then retry if doesn't work with download any explorer app like root explorer and you can edit system from it

It works for the mount /system via adb? because I did it from root explorer but it freezes again, if works via adb, tell me, Im now in the 5.1.1 android rom version

Tried it on both, including
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /system
Freezing up
Especially with Amaze. Tried to write on the system partition and it hangs until I do a fresh reboot.
Has anyone tried if Samsung pay still works after root?
Ok, I'm in this nougat rom now, but the writable system still as a dream for us. I'll go back to the stock and enjoy of my Samsung apps instead of freezing my phone. Has someone knowledge about change the imei of this device? I want root for this. Or, if you know how to reboot the lollipop rooted rom correctly, can you explain me how?

Unsure if it "works" or not, as I never use it. However... It is bothering me to add my VISA-XXXX to Android Pay after boot. I'd say fairly good chance it does, simply because this root has thus far not touched /system for most of us. I do believe that is the red flag for SafetyNet/Pay (but I dunno. It does ask me however...)
