Can't move any apk into /sys/app using root explorer

Hi guys I want to install keyboardmanager by installing from /sys/app try as I may i just can't move any apk into the root sys folder. Have read write permission in the folder but after paste or copy request the file remains on the sd. Can copy files from sd to /.
Have searched and searched but can't find out why I can move files to this path. I need access as would like to remove some stock apps also.
Rooted with evoke and am running a desire with cyanogen 6.1.0 stable and clockwork mod recovery 2.5.0.7
Any help would be much appreciated.
Q&ASent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

Are you S-OFF?
If not you do not truly have RW access, just the appearance of it in File Explorer.
Try booting into recovery and using adb to move it, or go through the steps to S-OFF.

Try copying it to /system/app/
Not /sys/app/...wrong place.

Mercianary: I think he used sys as short for system.
To answer the question. The desire is nandlocked so even with root you can't write to system while it is booted. You need to hack the phone on bootloader level (get s-off) to gain this write access.

@cwakerly From what i understand, you are trying to install an apk from your sd card to /system/app while the phone is on and running? As suggested above, you cannot do this via a File Explorer app unless you have full root to the /system partition (S-OFF). Try it via ADB instead and follow these steps:
Perform a Nandroid backup first just incase anything were to go wrong.
1. You need to have USB Debugging enabled, HTC Sync and Android SDK installed (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html).
2. To get adb running on the Windows OS platform, for example, download & extract the Android SDK to the following path: C:\android-sdk-windows.
3. Turn on your phone and connect it to your PC via a USB port, and then boot into Recovery mode..
4. Instead of placing the apk onto the SD card, place it into C:\android-sdk-windows\tools in Windows.
5. Open command prompt and type cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools, hit enter.
6. Type adb shell mount /system, then hit enter, to mount the /system partition.
7. Type adb push keyboardmanager.apk /system/app, hit enter.
8. Type adb reboot.
Let me know if that is what you meant and if it works for you.

Hey guys thanks so much for suggestions will try them and let you know if it works

try it in smaller chunks, type adb shell, you will then get a # sign, now type mount /system

hi have navigated to tools folder of sdk, still the same error message. when i type adb shell i get the same error!

If you have latest sdk you need the "other" tools folder. I'm not at my pc so I'm not sure the exact name.

if you haven't got it done yet use this update.zip
open the zip then put the apk you want to install in /system/app then zip it back up. it wont be signed so turn off signature verification in recovery before you flash it.

Hurray using the update zip worked!! Thank you everyone for your help on this
Have a great Christmas.

[Q] SD card can't be mounted - Desire PVT4 after rooting

Hi guys,
I got a problem:
I rooted my Desire PVT4 with unrevoked and AmonRa-Recovery under Linux Mint Live CD. Everything went fine.
Next, I wanted to prepare for flashing a new rom. I did a Titanium Backup and downloaded Rom Manager. I proceeded to do a nand-backup, which it did, I guess. After that, however, my desire didn't recognize my sd card anymore.
Connecting to Windows 7 didn't work either. (It did work before)
So I went and bought a new sd card. I formatted it and put it in my device. Still, no sd card detected.
Along with the new sd card, I got an adapter, so I can now stick the sd card directly into my computer.
Surprise: I could now see both sd cards in Windows. Still, I formatted both after backing up the files on it.
The Desire wasn't able to boot anymore, though. So I went into recovery mode and partitioned the card manually with AmonRa recovery 2.0.1. This did work.
I can boot the Desire now, but it still won't detect the sd card.
Mounting it with AmonRa doesn't work either.
I read, that the problem might be caused by using RomManager on a PVT4 device.
Installing the HTC drivers didn't help and I can't install the google USB drivers. When I try to do so it says that there were no drivers found in the specified directory (""C:\android-sdk-windows\google-usb_driver")
In the device manager it shows 3 "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM" (bought it in Germany, so shouldn't it read "GSM"?). All of them are marked with a yellow question mark. Upon trying to update the drivers I selected "Install software from a list or source" and specified ""C:\android-sdk-windows\google-usb_driver". I clicked "proceed" but Windows tells me that it couldn't find the drivers. Tried that on Win7 and on my WinXP laptop.
I desperately need help. I'm no pro. Actually I am a complete noob I searched on google but I couldn't find any solution so far.
Since I can't access my sd card (except partitioning in AmonRa, that did work somehow) I can't access any .zip on my sd card.
e. Additional information:
Upon trying to mount in Amonra recovery it says:
""Can't mount /sdcard"
Same, when trying to flash a .zip from sd.
hboot version is 0.93 I think.
I tried the following:
Just fixed it... i think the problem erupted because i have AmonRA recovery and used Rom manager (Clockwork mod recovery based) .. there were several reports
that this may cause a usb brick. ... any way... i searched for how to unbrick it.. and used a clone cd from modaco ((Tinycore.img)) which is linux based to boot from it (with phone connected to fastboot usb) .. and
entered the following commands :
Quote
sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom/root
/mnt/cdrom/root/fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
and it enabled the sdcard... i checked the sdcard workability from the recovery (i hadn't format it yet) then thought : WTH, why not to try and restart the phone to see if it will log in normally .. and it did (naturally
because the sdcard block was the thing that prevented it from booting from the very start)...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Except that I used Linux Mint Live CD.
All I got was:
Code:
sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write/protected, mounting read-only
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/sr0 already mounted or /mnt/cdrom busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/sr0 is already mounted on /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom/root
bash: cd: /mnt/cdrom/root: No such file or directory
Must I use TinyCore? I read somewhere that it only works for Hboot 0.8 and lower? What exactly is TinyCore anyways?
I almost know nothing about linux

No one?
Now I can't even get a signal anymore. I could cry...

Have you tried this procedure?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639
It worked for me when i bricked (pvt1 s-off). The problem seems to lie in the misc partition, which you have patch with the edited img file...

When I get into fastboot mode, where is the option to "'fastboot oem boot'"?
e. Also, my PC does not recognize the desire when pluggin into USB.

You type that into cmd prompt window on your PC.
There are some instructions on SD card fix in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639

It happened to me when I partitioned the SD card in windows. Could you chech if your partitions on your SD are both set as primary and also uncheck "Take ownership of filesystem" (or something like that) when you are using the HD utility in linux.
Basically what happened was that the partitions were logical in stead of primary. Banged my had in the wall for two days before I figured this out. Hope it helps.

I'll try the Usb-brick-fix first. But how do I find out which rom version I have? I managed to get my CID by typing "fastboot oem boot" in the command prompt.
e. This is what I get upon writing the command:
http://www.abload.de/img/unbenannt7njw.jpg
e. I noticed, it says "board_bravo.disable-sdcard=1"
what does that mean?

I guess it means that sdcard can't be mounted...anyway, have you done the hexeditor thing already?

I just put the two files on the sd card and rebooted in fastmode. However, I'm not sure about my rom version. Where can I find out which one I have?
e. I just typed "cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image" in ConnectBot, but it says "cannot create /data/flash_image: permission denied"
e.. When I type in "su" first, it still says "/sdcard/flash_image: No such file or directory"

Oh sorry, i didn't read that...well i remember i was confused about that too at this point...too bad i can't remember how i found out.
Anyway, i found another solution on modaco:
"2. Enable the SD Card functionality. Boot your phone in FASTBOOT mode (back + power), and enter this command: 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' . This will re-enable your SD card.
3. Put THIS (attached) update.zip on your sdcard.
4. Reboot into recovery.
5. Apply sdcard:update.zip.
6. This will automatically fix your MISC partition with the correct CID. Reboot, and your done!"
Try this and tell me if it works in the while

I just booted into fastmode again and typed "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" into the command prompt.
Now the Desire detects the sd card again :thumbsup:
Now I will try to use the cat command again.
e. I just did the thing with the "update.zip". Rebooting now.
e. I got my sd card back and a phone signal. That's great so far. Now what?

Still, when typing
"cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image"
I get
"/sdcard/flash_image: No such file or directory"

I guess you're done if it worked...are you able to connect normally to your pc now? You should be :s
Also, those commands are meant to be used in a terminal emulator, not on your pc, i hope you didn't misread...anyway if you used the modaco tip you shouldn't need that anymore.
When you're done remember to copy your misc folder to a safe place, it will be enough to replace it via root explorer or similar if someday you'll brick again...

Nope, can't get it to connect to my PC quite yet. But I hope I will get that to work after rebooting the phone and/or windows or installing the htc drivers again.
I can not thank you enough right now. I was going crazy about this. Just bought my desire recently, upgrading from the Legend, with the little spare money I had. It would have been bad, if it was broken now.
So: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Also, someone tried to call me yesterday, while my phone signal didn't work. Now everytime I start the Phone, it shows me my missed call.
My girlfriend has a similar problem with a message I sent her. Everytime she boots her phone, she gets that message (fortunately it's "I love you" ).
So, I guess, it has something to do with the SIM?

Hmm, if you can't connect it might mean that the usb isn't fully restored...could you turn off the phone, plug it to pc, turn it back on and see if drivers get installed properly? Just to make sure...

I am stupid.
Hold on, it might work now. I had to switch to "local" in ConnectBot. Thought the app would remember that, but it didn't

Hmm.
Do I have to be in fastboot mode to type in those commands? Because I did type them in and rebooted, but Windows still will not detect my Desire :/
or should I type them in the windows command prompt?

Sorry, i'm not sure i got ya. How would you run connectbot while you're in saftboot mode?? Because that's what i did, to make it clearer:
1. Downloaded image file "mtd0.img" and "flash_image" (from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639) and put them on sdcard (ofc i edited mtd0.img with my CID using some free hex editor before)
2. Installed Android Terminal Emulator app (from market), but connectbot should be the same.
3. Opened emulator, typed "su" command, accepted to give root permissions
executed this commands:
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image
cat /sdcard/misc.img > /data/misc.img
chmod 755 /data/flash_image
/data/flash_image misc /data/misc.img
4. Rebooted phone, connected to pc.
5. Success
Is this exactly what you did?

Yes. I typed exactly that. I just wanted to type it in again, but now it tells me again, that there is no such file or directory on /sdcard. But I can see the file with Astro being on the sdcard.
e. Maybe I used the wrong rom version number?
e.. Someone suggested to run in fastboot mode and type "fastboot oem eraseconfig". What exactly would this do? Which config would be erased?
What exactly is fastboot?

Eiskrem-Kaiser said:

You just need the CID, not the rom version for this...
Anyway, please note that when i write misc.img i mean mtd0.img, that's what you typed right? Sorry if i confused you.
I guess there's no need to mess further with fasboot, i didn't need it, except for mounting sdcard.
If this still fails, you can always move mtd0.img and flash_image to /data manually via root explorer app, then go on from the chmod command.

Forgot to transfer ROM

I tried to root my Nexus to get Jellybean...all went well till I realized I forgot to get the ROM onto the phone.
I made a backup onto the computer but didn't do it after I booted into clockwork mod. I wiped the cache etc. and installed the Gapps and that is when I realised the ROM wasn't on the phone. My phone wont connect to the computer and the only backup I have is on my computer.
Is there a way to get the stock ICS on the phone or somehow get the JB ROM onto my phone?

Not an expert, but fastboot and flash stock???

If your phone is recognized by the PC, push the ROM with ADB. You can then flash it.
Code:
adb push rom-file.zip /sdcard/
Alternatively if you just want to return to stock, flash the images via fastboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895

You need to be in the sdk folder where the adb.exe is located, and the file you want to push must be in the same folder aswell.

Open the directory where you put the adb.exe file. Shift+Right Click the blank screen. Click Run Command Prompt Here. Now you should be able to use adb and all its commands when your phone is in recovery mode and connected to computer. Just to make sure, you can always do "adb devices" to check it the phone is recognized.
Also make sure that the ROM you want to transfer is in the same directory as adb.exe.
After you've done that, do "adb push NAME OF THE ROM.zip /sdcard/"
Now use CWM to flash that zip file and you're good to go.

Thanks everyone! Got it working!
Definitely made my heartdrop before haha but man I learned a lot haha again, Thanks!:good:

[Q] Flash system over cmd

I just erased everything on my sdcard (emulated) and the system. The only things left are recovery and bootloader. I read about sideload but it doesn't work for me, because my adb doesn't act out the command (My adb version is 1.0.29). So how could I transfer the rom onto my not existing sdcard? (If I do adb push all it says is: "E: /sdcard/ : is a directory")
Please help me as quick as possible. Thanks!

[q] SOLVED: ADB ROM PUSH ERROR: DEVICE NOT FOUND

EDIT:
I was trying to reflash JB 4.3 because of storage issues but unfortunately I accidentally deleted and formatted internal and sd storage, so Im left with no OS on my Gnex but I can boot on recovery and fastboot. Also before I deleted the internal I did not enable usb debugging yet at that time. Is there a way I can flash a stock image by just using toolkit? ty
I tried pushing through fastboot mode but it says error: device not found. I only have the platform tools on my pc.
UPDATE:
Finally got the file pushed into the sd card doing via recovery. Since I am using TWRP recevery it was not too obvious how to do it unlike CWRM which I used to use. I spent more than 24 hours looking for the right solution that would work for me and funny thing was I finally got the right way to one of the first threads i looked into but just didnt pay much attention to it which was here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667929

Go into your device manager if you have windows, and see if you have any errors.
If you do, you might have an exclamation mark for the device: Galaxy. You can manually install the drivers from here, point it to your toolkit, I guess, since you downloaded it already.

If he reads efrant's "android 101" -which is STICKIED ON GENERAL forum- just the first post, he'll know everything and downloaded everything he needs to know and have to interact with his device.

Not sure if this has any bearing but when I accidentally formated internal and sdcard it was a fresh 4.3 install and so android debugging was not enabled. Thanks

Doesn't matter because if you reboot in bootloader you can use fastboot(if drivers are installed properly), fastboot always works, you don't need to enable anything for it.

no, there's no ADB interface on FASTBOOT interface. You'll never be able to push anything through ADB in FASTBOOT interface. Please read the thread i talked about earlier, and this one too -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895 - Just the first post of each will do.

- This is probably the most important part - Still in Command Prompt, type "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip" replacing ROM with the EXACT name of the ROM file and including the .zip piece on both ends. This may take a minute or two...or four, but you will see a message in Command Prompt saying something like <12345678kb to 1234567kb>. That is just telling you that the file was pushed properly. (I did not include that message in the picture below)"

I'm glad you sorted it out, that's the thing instead of teaching you step by step just left a hint on what you should do, helps you learn to do it on your own..
Peace,

Thanks
Thanks for this. Was stuck with no factory image because had to wipe data because of encryption. Then was in dilemma of how to load the ZIP to sdcard without having to reflash the stock all over. This saved me the time. Thanks again
