After almost a day of searching. I found out that you only need to replace your "wpa_supplicant" file on system/bin.
First, download the file in the attachment. then extract it.
using USB cable or bluetooth, copy paste the "wpa_supplicant" file on your sdcard.
using root explorer, go to system/bin, mount r/w,
then rename the "wpa_supplicant" to "wpa_supplicant.old"
then copy paste the new "wpa_supplicant" from your sdcard to system/bin.
Reboot and you'd able to connect to wifi adhoc connection.
Note: Wifi must be turned off while doing this.

Ahoy! Simply put, I'd like to install a new boot animation on my rooted HTC Desire HD running Android Revolution HD 3.0.
I've searched how to do this but I don't exactly understand.
I understand that I can 'push' the new bootanimation.zip to data/local via ADB, but some guides/installation tutorials have simply said 'copy bootanimation.zip to data/local.'
I'd much prefer to be able to simply copy the .zip to data/local and not have to deal with ADB as I have not yet used it, but how do I do this? Am I misunderstanding?
I thought 'copy to data/local' would be as simple as using for example, Astro File Manager and copying the new bootanimation.zip from my SDcard to data/local, however there is no 'local' folder inside of the 'data' folder and the option to create a new folder is greyed-out.
Long story short:
What's the simplest method of installing a bootanimation?
Can I simply 'copy bootanimation.zip to data/local?' If so, how?
If I have to use ADB to install the bootanimation, what is the exact process of doing this?
I'm sure this has been asked before, but my searches confused me more than cleared anything up. Thank you for any help in advance!
You need a program like root explorer(es file explorer with root access should work too) for the copy/paste method because the bootanimation.zip isn't stored at your sd card but at the phones internal memory.
At the root of your phone you should see folders like sdcard, dev, root and many more. One of them is called data. In this folder there is one called local. There should be a file called bootanimation.zip. just replace this file with your bootanimation.zip.
Normally it can't damage your phone when your bootanimation has a wrong format or whatever. If the new file is broken, you'll get a black screen instead of an animation but the phone will boot anyway

I see the folder you're talking about in both Astro and ES File Viewer, but this 'data' folder is empty by default. There's no bootanimation.zip and there's no 'local' folder.
I'm confused.
take a look at /system/media

Use ES File Explorer, and make sure that you enable root mode in settings. Use hiapk mode. Also remount /system and /data, that option is also in the settings.

Thank you. This worked perfectly. I wasn't aware I needed to do this. Thanks again.
Edit: I've encountered another problem. Whenever I now attempt to access my SD card via ES File Explorer, I get the error "SD Card Unmounted or not present." How do I rectify this? It works fine in Astro.
Edit 2: I attempted to unmount /system and /data simply by unticking the option in ES (i'm really only just starting to delve into this sort of thing now and don't know what I'm doing.) and it says 'failed to mount'. How do I fix this also? ;P
Edit 3: Re-installing ES File Explorer fixed the above two issues, but I assume it will do the exact same thing again. For the time being and a short fix, is re-installing the app each time OK? I don't exactly know what 'failed to mount' or 'SD Card unmounted or not present' errors mean. I get the idea, but I'm not sure if they're really doing any damage.
I found my original boot animation in '/system/customize/resource/' and replaced with a custom one. Worked!
Hey!
recently changed to cm7.1.0-RC1.5-jordan-signed
at first wifi worked fine but now it wont scan and find connections
any ideas?
thanks!
delete /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf, reboot
you can try with this
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AFAN1ZLI
unzip de file, paste the file in the same direction in your phone, with root explorer, now you need give all permissions to the file...

Where can I find this file so I cant delete him?
where is it?
I had the same problem a few times.
Just install RootExplorer and delete data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf.
after Reboot it should works
Your saved wifi passwords will be deleted!!!
to save the pws copy the wpa_supplicant.conf to your sdcard and open it in the texteditor and copy the password for each wifi.
thanks
delete data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf.
worked just fine!

Depending on where it is you need to mount it first. Which folder are you trying to delete?

I had a folder that became corrupted (repeatedly interrupted game data downloads, I think). I was unable to delete it (even as root) and received an Access Denied error. I was able to rename the folder (so it wouldn't conflict anymore) and delete the majority of its contents (still received the Access Denied error on a file or two). I eventually had to do a full wipe via fastboot -w to get rid of the corrupted files.
had the same problem. had to reflash su.zip and it worked. can't explain it though. just reaching at straws

it's the folder created by the Photaf application.
i uninstalled the app and the folder is still there...permissions are writable, not hidden...
i can rename it, but can't delete it....and the subfolder within it as well...
i remember it happened once before and the only way to get rid of it was to reinstall the ROM (AOKP). Once installed, i could delete the folder.....
Try reinstalling the game and using settings/application/name of game clear data

no effect, still can't be removed
LE: WTF, i just plugged in the phone into USB for charging and i saw the folder?! It deleted just fine?
Damn weird didn't do anything different than yesterday when i couldn't even see the folder via PC...
Thank you!
My Asus Transformer (TF101) hasn't been able to download anything to the Download folder for months now. Even Opera (which I installed just to try and fix this) could only download to a different folder. I did what you said, plugged it into the computer and first renamed the folder with ADB but couldn't create a new Download folder. "File already exists." Lies. Windows Explorer said it was still there as Download so I deleted it in Explorer and created a new folder named Download. The create failed but Android said it was there and Voila! I can download again. Very weird, but not ready yet to reformat in fastboot. Thanks guys!
If you're rooted you may be able to delete the files from /data/media, which is the true location, instead of the visual SD that you are seeing.
Could also be a file ownership issue.
Using a terminal emulator, use the following command to list ownership and permissions:
ls -l
(Lower case letter L, not i or 1)
Most of the files and folders should show up as media_rw, but the problematic ones may show up as numbers. To fix them, boot into CWM recovery, plug in the USB cable, go into adb shell. Also make sure that /data is mounted in the CWM mounts menu. Then:
cd /data/media
chown -R media_rw.media_rw *
Alright. I need help with this and Google can't help me. I need to recursively (i.e. all of the content in the directory) move an entire folder from Windows to my internal sd-card but no matter what I do, I just can't get it to work.
I now there's a way, somehow.
EDIT: Pitch-in: The sd-card is mounted as /mnt/sdcard/ right?
what about just zipping it? i dont think adb can do that easily
Lets say you have a folder called Wallpapers on your PC use the code below (assumes you copied Wallpapers folder to android-sdk\platform-tools):
Code:
adb push Wallpapers /sdcard/Wallpapers/
If you don't specify the destination folder (Wallpapers) on the sdcard then it will place the contents of the folder on your sdcard. No need for mnt in the destination.
Edit: unsure of how this will behave with subdirectories within the folder you're trying to push. You might have to push each subdirectory separately.

Working for me as I type. I don't know about the sub-directories as I just put everything into one folder and will move them to their new home once they finish transferring. Up until now, I've been moving everything individually. I didn't know you could move folders so this is awesome. Save me a lot of typing lol.

a thanks is enough, no need to necrobump a thread over a YEAR old, just to say it works.
I honestly just zip the file with all directories on my computer than adb it over. Extract with root explorer and move then delete zip file. Easy and simple

Hi,
I am trying to edit the "mixer_path" file in the system/etc folder in order to solve the problem with the noise in the headphone jack.
The phone is rooted and running CM12.1 and when I try to save the file after editing, it says it can't save the file. Even if I copy the file to another folder and try editing it there (with ES editor)
What should I do? (the permission were set to -rw-r-r- or 644.
Thanks in advance!

Push file to PC and edit it there?
Well, now I've edited the file accordingly but the phone won't play any track, or any sound at all, for that matter. Doesn't ring etc'... S:
Have any idea why?
So I installed CM12.1 again to fix the problem, but now when I copied the file from system\etc to somewhere on the sdcard, I can't see it when I open the folder on the computer. How come?
