[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] firephoto:
Works good but now I can't "adb remount" because I get an "operation not permitted", and thus I can't "adb push".

Is this normal behavior after this root?

The only reason I noticed was from attempting to install the newer talk app which is probably possible by other means but I haven't found the right answer out of about a billion search results.

Also the part about installing the color sdk stuff or adding the adb_usb.ini line isn't accurate I don't think. I had to run "android update adb" and then the file was updated, which is the same as editing the file but I think it gets autocreated or updated from something else possibly.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ylixir:
Yeah... :-(

You'll have to su and remount by hand. The following should work:

$ adb shell
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system
# exit
$ exit
$ adb push teh_files

Sadly after you reboot the adb deamon doesn't have superuser permissions anymore and can't do things like remounting filesystems.

I'm not sure why this is tbh. maybe because the SUID bit isn't set, or the version of adb in the tablet is gutted?

I'm sure people would be grateful if someone figured it out (hint hint), it's gonna cause all kinds of annoyances like this in the future no doubt :-/

Weird. It definitely wasn't on my system after installing tablet sdk and before installing the color sdk and definitely was after installing the color sdk. i'll change the original post to get rid of that part, since it's kind of unnecessary anyhow.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] firephoto:
There's something that seems more locked down (while allowing root) so maybe it's intentional to maintain some security in certain situations. (guessing).

I did mount the filesystem rw but that still doesn't allow the push. Seem like the standard adb shell user doesn't have the permissions to do the normal things and then the root user doesn't have the commands even though the $PATH is correct.

So some permission bit set strange somewhere I guess but I haven't found it yet.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ylixir:
Oh wow, you are right. And it gets even better...

You can push to the /mnt/media/ directory...

And now for the good news...no cp command, and mv doesn't work to move files apparently.

As a temporary work around you can use cat >< I feel so dirty saying this:

$ adb push teh_file /mnt/media
$ adb shell
$ su
# cat /mnt/media/teh_file > /system/teh_file

Things are getting really hackey now :-/ maybe i will have to look into the adbd issues after all. Not tonight though.

I'll update the guide tomorrow to get busybox installed so we have a cp command. The market app didn't work for me, but I don't have an sd card in mine atm, and i think it wants to download there.

Anyone with an sd card able to just install the (stericson) busybox market app?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ylixir:
I did some research on adbd. Apparently by default it runs as a "shell" user, not root.

This is pretty standard for stock roms apparently. There are a few ways around this.

For more information, see this thread

Honestly, I forgot the step to remove zergRush from /data/local, so the easiest thing in my opinion would be to just run zergRush whenever you need adb running as root.

Also, busybox from the market installs just fine with an sd-card, doesn't have to be a good one or anything, it just needs a place to park the busybox binary that it is copying over

Great work. Was thinking about writing one once I got an NT but knew someone would beat me to it. FYI you can follow link in my signature to install adb in Ubuntu. Will try this as soon as I get my hand on one (next week). Thank you
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] winsettr:
I used the first half of these instructions to get sideloading working on my non-rooted NT 1.4.1. Windows messed everything up by installing the "correct" drivers automatically and adb wouldn't recognize the NT so had to flip to Linux. Thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] winsettr:
Did it work? Can adb see the NT? Can you root? The error may not be normal, but it doesn't really matter unless something doesn't work...

*******@arena:~/programs/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools>

I have even tried running this with SUDO and as ROOT but then I'm am presented with an empty "List of devices attached" after running "./adb devices" command. I have also rebooted my Linux system and the Nook Tablet but no change.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] winsettr:
You shouldn't need special permission to push ZergRush (how else could you get it on the NT to root) so that's a problem. When you stop then start the adb daemon, then list devices (before trying to push ZergRush), is the NT listed?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RegLinUsr:
Your question is easily answered with the information from the end of my post... :confused:

Fully reading a post before replying is quite the useful trait. It helps to notice that this is not my first time rooting something as well so the obvious isn't the issue here, the problem is something else that is a bit off of the beaten path. Might be something openSUSE specific; missing driver or program but I'm not sure at this point.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelikp:
that mean your backup using recovery rite???

so what should you do is...

1-boot into recovery

2-select restore (your backup folder)

3-after backup complete, restart phone

(now you on your old rom)(2.1 is it?) here you can find all your contact listed

4-you have to use any backup program (download from market) (sample etc. on post no2 or post no3)

5-install the backup program

6-now create backup (sms and contact rite??)

7-Now you have to install whatever cuctom rom again

8-after finnish download the same backup program (on step4)

9-install the backup program then restore the backup

Done??:mad:

With that being said, the following will begin to happen:

1. All non-development threads started in the Development section will be moved to the appropriate section and/or closed and the "responsible" poster (in quotes because the fact they posted in the wrong section clearly brings into question whether or not they are responsible) will be infracted.

2. Any abusive posts directed at any user will be deleted and the abuser will be infracted and/or given a temporary vacation. Multiple instances will result in a longer leave-of-absence, and if it continues you will be removed from XDA. You, and your behavior, are not welcome at XDA.

3. Any off-topic posts in the Development section threads will be deleted. These are non-helpful, and certainly not development posts. This includes the following:

"OMG THIS IS SO GREAT!"

"WOW! YOU ROCK AND I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES!"

"THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!"

"THANKS FOR THIS!"

If you want to thank someone for their work, do so by clicking the "THANKS" button on their post.

4. Any post, in any section, that is done to further post count will be deleted and you will face possible infraction.

5. Anything else that goes against the XDA Forum Rules and XDA Mantra will be dealt with firmly, but fairly.

Anyone else having trouble with the stock email app? Its brutally slow and freezes the whole phone. The problem is that it syncs with the stock calender app which I need. K9 mail does not as far as I know. I wish it was possible to remove our replace the stock email app with a newer or older or fixed version or something, but I don't have root and I don't know how to without it. Any suggestions for this problem or similar experiences?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
I was having issues with the stock email app. Any message I would send from my phone it would stay in the outbox and not actually send the email. I would try manually pushing the email and that would not work. My suggestion is to try enhanced email from the market. I have been using it for a week now and the customizations above the stock email are worth the price. I believe you can Google it and download a free week trial version from their website.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kennonk:
You can try other mail clients but if you are using your phone for work and connecting to an Exchange (or exchange-like) ActiveSync server, take it from someone who is not only a heavy email user but also the email co-admin for a 5000 user environment, Touchdown by Nitrodesk right now is the only fully functional non-buggy exchange mail client for Android. If you are only a casual or occasional email user then Enhanced Email is ok, but still has a lot of bugs. I have a lot of experience supporting everything else out there (Including a few hundred Blackberry Enterprise users, and iPhone users) and right now Touchdown for Android is the only stable one that has feature parity with a real corporate email client.

Having said that, the stock mail client on CM7 is a lot less buggy than Samsung's, HTC's or Motorola's. So if you really need to use stock for some kind of calendar integration or because your favorite widget only supports stock mail and you are comfortable with flashing custom roms then CM7 give a try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Turbo2Tonos:
Hi, i'm really new to all this root/cwm/flash thing, i hope i am posting to the correct thread. It seems that the stock email client will not work on unNamed rom, probably because social hub is not installed. It just won't set up the account. (I did install social hub using the addon provided by the unNamed, but didn't work, social hub won't add any account for that matter) Gmail does work. I just wanted to point out this issue, to see if someone is having the same situation.

Sorry, i'm a complete noob.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lackskill:
I'm going to try to keep this description as brief as possible while still including enough detail to properly ask for help... I have been searching for a resolution for a couple hours now and am confident that my issue has not been covered before, but if I'm wrong I'm happy to be shown the light. I cannot post this in the kernel thread as it's in a development forum and I don't have enough posts to post there.

I've installed the Stock+ v3.0 ROM today after release, per his instructions on a clean wipe. Rom install worked fine with the black dialer and restore rotate mods listed in the Stock+ ROM thread. I decided I wanted to install the EXT4 mod so I followed these instructions exactly using Convert2Ext4_no_data_limit_normal_dalvik EXT4 mod and 2.6.35.jermaine151_stock_ext4 Stock+ kernel. As soon as I reboot after installing the kernel I get stuck at a cycling of the boot animation. This is my second time through the rom install, which works, and then the mod/kernel install, which borks. Results were exactly the same both times.

I appreciate any help I can get. TIA for your time.

EDIT1: I didn't expect it to work, but i reinstalled the rom without wiping, and the results were as I expected. Now it sticks at the boot splash instead of the boot animation.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SynisterWolf:
with the ext4 mod i think you need the kernel installed and booted once before flashing the ext4 mod. please try this and report back.

I have:

* Wiped

* Installed v3.0 of the rom

* Rebooted and completed initial setup stuff

* Flashed Stock+ Kernel

* Rebooted - still booting fine at this point

* Installed EXT4 mod

It's still booting fine at this point, but Stock+ kernel is replaced by gingertiny kernel. I'm going to try reinstalling the Stock+ kernel, just because. If that doesn't work I'll stick with gingertiny and I'll report back with any more updates.

Stock+ ROM

I like it a lot. It's based on the newest (4.06.605.3) Sense OTA with a couple nice tweaks. With EXT4 mod, black dialer, restore rotate, and 802.11n support it's how this update should have come from HTC, IMO.

Given that KJ6 is an official release from Samsung now, you could use RaverX3X's ODIN ROM to put it to stock. I think (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that it will remove root, CWM, voodoo, and all of that. Speaking of voodoo, if you're using it, remember to go into recovery and disable it before flashing anything else.

I believe CWM should already be gone once you flashed Raver's KJ6. Other than doing a factory data reset to get rid of anything on there you don't want them to see, I think you're good to go.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outerlimitz:
Phones been running fine. Have had it for a few months. It's been unlocked and had ROM mngr on it, but never installed any roms to it.

This past saturday while in NY, it was setting on a coffee table for most of the day. I picked it up from the table that night to head out to dinner, it was overly hot. the table is no where near sun or heat. i powered down the phone because the heat made it difficult to use. when i powered it back up, it didn't want to boot. I got the Google loading screen with the padlock, thats it. about 20 min later, it finally booted up and has run fine since then.

Until today. It didn't get hot, but it started running so slow, i couldn't do anything.

longer story short, it will not mount the sd card in recovery mode. I've tried taking this back to stock incase i had to take it into the sprint store. But when rebooting from the recovery mode, it won't always boot. i may have to pull the battery out upwards of 20 times and pwr it back on before it actually boots up and logs into the phone for use.

i was finally able to get the phone relocked. it has the stock rom on it, as it always had. but now i cannot get the stock radio because it refuses to mount the sd card. so in my apps drawer, there is the super user icon. i do not remember this coming with super user at all when i got it.

if the sd card fails to mount (can't even format it from the recovery menu due to not mounting) how can i flash the stock radio back so i can get this replaced?

im still trying to figure out what caused it to get so hot. again, nothing other then the stock rom was ever put on it. so there was no over clocking.

i can't afford a new phone, so i need to make sure that sprint store will swap this out with a new one and not give me the run around.
