Hey as the topic says I'm having trouble finding OTG Mount Path in my device and I want to find it can anyone help me any re reply will be appreciated.
On stock it is in /mnt/media_rw/[volume id]
Using root explorer I need to open a directory in /mnt (that requires root privileges to view) first, which will force root explorer to ask for root privileges, then the media_rw folder will be visible in root explorer.

I've used unrevoked forever to get my s-off, but eveytime I try to delete/rename/copy a file to the /system directory I get an error. Anyway to fix this? I'm new XD
use the app root explorer , it allows you to enable write ability.
Root Explorer isnt free, and I can't buy it cuz...im 15
But I did try an app called "mount /system (rw/ro)". It tells me that the /system directory has been set to r/w, but when I use astro to browse to the folder, everything is still marked -ro
true true see ur PM. Does that app of your provide a file directory search or manager?
Astro doesn't have root capabilities. Use ES File Explorer (you have to enable root access in settings) or use Super Manager.

I second ES File Explorer. I use it for all my system reading/writing needs in root.

try running "Fix Permissions" in ClockworkMod then reboot
thats what did it for me when i had this issue
yup, use ES file explorer (I prefer root explorer, but as you noted, it's not free). You could also start learning to use adb to push/pull to system if you want. It comes in handy, knowing how to use adb. Definitely good to learn at some point.
Hi everyone,
I've successfully rooted me GSM Desire and am running CyanogenMod 7 (I also installed Redux v.1.1.1 and CyanogenMod 6.1 without any problems). For some reason, though, the /system and /data directories still seem to be read-only. In Root Explorer it seems to let me rename files in those directories and says "Rename Successful," but if when I leave the directory and come back the file is back to its original name. I also can't move any files there. When I use ES File Explorer it just says "Sorry, operation failed!"
I have enabled "Mount R/W" in Root Explorer and "Mount File System" in ES File Explorer but nothing seems to work. Is there some extra step to making these directories writable that I have missed?
Hi there, you need to have s-off (aka security off or full root) to write to /system and /data with the device booted, i.e. using root explorer etc.
You can also do it with s-on, but you have to to that with your PC via cmd prompt and adb shell which is less convenient.
Great guide to getting s-off here, took me <10 mins!

If you're looking for stylus functionality from your tablet. You'll need to root it and use the app and tweaks found here.

Also worth doing if don't use stylus, you'll have a much more snappy tablet.

You need to enable superuser in es file explorer under settings, i use root explorer and can't remember the precise location of the settings.

I had to set the root directory (i.e. /) as my home directory. From there you can navigate to /system/build.prop IIRC and make the necessary changes.
touch tune is great.
Okay I use Root Browser and on the old Nexus 7 unlocked/rooted stock firmware I could do things like copy regular apps to the /system/app folder and make them a system app. But on the newer 2013 Nexus 7 I am having no luck with anything pertaining to the /system partion
All my permissions are right and I am rooted, but any time I try and copy files over to system it always fails, when I look at the filesystem in Explorer it says the partion is mounted as R/O, i've tried a few su commands in terminal emulator but still have no success in mounting my system as R/W.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

I'm not familiar with Root Browser, I've only ever used Root Explorer and have never had any problems with any devices. Root Explorer is easy to change to R/W, there is a little button towards the top to toggle between R/W & R/O. Sorry I can't be of more help. If you can't get any help here with Root Browser maybe email the developer for support.
hi trying to copy a new generic.kl to the keylayout folder in es file explorer, i have done this many times withno issues on numerous ftv's however onmy current device i keep getting error failed EACCESS (permission denied)
please help, very frustrated
lot of people viewing this, surely dome1 can help
You have granted root permissions to the file explorer app and mounted the file system as r/w?
ihave granted root permissions but dont understand the other bit ur asking
I have never used ES File Explorer specifically but I know in File Manager I use has the options you have to check, both use root functions, then mount /system as R/W or read/write. It's normally only R/O or Read Only.
This can be achieved with adb also if needed
Could anyone share their keylaout and keychars firetv folders please? I need the fire tv gaming controller kl and kcm files.
