im looking to chmod a file i have on my sd card, but i cant really grasp what i need to do with it....
its stored in my /data/data/com.spb.shell3d/lib folder of my phone
so if anyone could tell me how to change it to a 755 would be AMAZING, and much rep sent your way
Thank you
/data is not on your sdcard
you can use adb from your computer or you can install terminal emulator from the market....
chmod 755 /path/to/file/filename.file
sorry i should have mentioned, i had it on my sd card, and then did a copy to the above mentioned file location....
and thats all i have to type in there is chmod 755 /data/data/com.spb.shell3d/lib ?

adb shell
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Replace xxx with app names. Case sensitive.
Edit: ignore $ and # when typing the commands

Do I need to remove the odex files as well?
Sent from DynamikD's R00t3d & OC G2
Advisable to, yes. Also, reboot and clear cache in recovery for best results.
What is the command to list "dir" to get the app names? I've done this on my mytouch3g as well but rusty
Edit: It's "ls" lol.
Ok, so I just attempted this and get this error:
rm failed for Twitter.apk, Read-Only file system

And I also would like to remove these:
amazonmp3.apk

What is a .odex file?

Anyone know the name of the photobucket APK?
So now that we have Perma-ROOT, is it safe to delete these bloatwares without worrying about future OTA's?
And what's a .odex file? How do we delete this? Can we just delete these apps thru Titanium Backup and then boot into Recovery to clear cache?
*EDIT* - n/m i see how to delete the .odex files now
What's the .apk name for Photobucket?
*EDIT* - Got it... it's PbAndroid.apk
Need help!
Well those are the commands to remove a app how do you push a apk file back onto the /system/app. I want to push a Bluetooth.apk file from the old ROM to the new OTA and see if that helps with the Bluetooth issue I'm having with the new OTA.
If your perma rooted why not just install titanium backup and uninstall the app. If your temp rooted then you can only disable the app cuz if you delete the apps it'll only reappear after a reboot.
Becuz titanium does not let u remove apps, if it was that easy I think everyone would do it

how would the remount command change for the MyTouch4G?

Don't think it would.
BTW you can also try this remount command for either, I was advised that it's preferable to use and it's certainly easier:
mount -o remount, rw /system
I am using ADB to push the bootanimation.zip to /data/local but nothing is changed in the phone.
I am using Telus Raidroid fully rooted and s-off.
Any ideas?
Try /system/customise/resource/

Make sure you mount the location as well (from command prompt in windows, or equivalent) - type what's in bold-type:
C:\SDK\Tools> adb shell
# mount /data/local
(screen will then print: )
mount /data/local
# ls /data/local <~this will list what is stored in this location.
(or, if it's supposed to be system/cust... as above poster said)
# mount /system/customise/resource
mount /system/customise/resource
If neither works, try using ES File Explorer. Change it's settings to "view system files", then look around in the folders until you find the bootrecovery.zip & where it's been placed. Not 100% sure but I was under impression you need to mount /filelocation to copy the bootanimation.zip to that location.

Thanks I'll try that later when I get home! Nothing I read mentioned having to mount anything...but I also never got any errors in ADB when pushing the file.
The file was successully pushed as per EF File Manager to /data/local/
You don't always have to use "push" to get the file into /data/local
Free apps like "Android Mate" can also let you copy files into the root of your phone. The terminal apps also allow you to copy the bootanimation.zip
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local
Wonder if someone can help...
I've upgraded my GN to 4.1.2 and restored my sdcard files. Now I have an issue with Internal Storage permissions.
I understand that /sdcard is sym-linked to /storage/sdcard0 which is virtualized to /data/media.
Any files one folder down from /sdcard are not visible.
I believe the issue is with the permissions of the /data/media files.
Could someone give me a directory listing from below /data/media so I can compare with mine.
I seem to have rwx------ with root/root on any file/folders that were restored. I don't think this is c
Folders in /data/media (sdcard) will typically have rwxrwxr-x or sometimes rwxrwxrwx. Data files in /data/media are typically rw-rw-r.

OK, thanks for the info.
So based on that, this is the script I've executed at /data/media/ ...
find . -type d -exec chmod 775 {} ";"
find . -type f -exec chmod 664 {} ";"
find . -exec chown media_rw:media_rw {} ";"
Seems to work...
Good, glad it worked. Nice little script.
I have this uu081.prl on my sdcard with a bunch of zips associated with it and I cannot delete it no matter what.
On my external card.
Thanks

This is assuming you are rooted.
Download terminal emulator from play store. Open it and type:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/extSdCard/uu081.prl
rm /mnt/extSdCard/uu081.prl
[Tweak root] add extra +700mb to Internal memory storage from /cache & +600-900MB from /system folders.
just run terminal with root & paste code
su
chmod -R 777 /cache
mkdir /cache/"your-program-folder"
mount -o bind /cache/"your-program-folder" /storage/sdcard0/"your-program-folder"
add extra +600mb (+900mb if you have LiteRom) from /system folder.
su
mkdir /system/share
chmod -R 777 /system/share
mount -o bind /system/share /storage/sdcard0/sharŠµ
before you can write to /storage/sdcard/share mount it RW
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
after every reboot do it again. how add script to startup folder, any Idea?
all work great. I have 4.5GB + 700MB + 800MB internal storage for my music and maps.
But you cant use any OTA updates because your download /cache folder filed now. Remove all data before update
rm -R /system/share/*
rm -R /cache/*
Re: [Tweak root] add extra +700mb to Internal memory storage
Are you sure you got these commands right? And why don't you just make a script to automatically run these commands at boot? You know, so you don't have to keep running the commands over and over? And you have the work "program" spelled wrong. Its spelled with only 1 "m". Program, not programm.

So what happens if you are using your whole internal sd including this 700 megs and you reboot? Does the system freak out?

everything will be fine, just live little more space on /cache (100mb at least)

Well, make a new folder on your sdcard, I used root explorer. I called it "67tweaks", I then zipped up the folder, then navigated to my zipped folder and I removed the .zip extension (doing it this way allowed me to make a new text document, but theres prolly an easier way, but this is the way i used) and then I long pressed it so it would let me open it up as a text document. I deleted some jibberish that was inside, I then started with #!/system/bin/sh, then space, then pasted your commands under the space and I then placed the file under system/etc/init.d folder. Now every time I boot up, the script gets run. You can also use an app like "ROM toolbox" and go to scripts and just create a new script and select it to run at boot, or you can use SMmanager and create a script to run at boot.

I'm no dev so I wouldn't be able to make a script to run at boot, but if you don't have init.d support you can add a script to your init.qcom.post_boot.sh file in system/etc folder and it should run at boot.
