Used to use this on the GS3 and it worked perfectly but according to some it has issues on Android 4.2 and higher. As I can only get the 16gb on every UK network instead of a 64gb or even 32gb. Can't test this on new Android versions as I switched back to the 64gb iPhone 5 when it was released.

If anyone who has this phone or test it when it's released, I would be very grateful to know whether it works or not as this will make or break my purchase.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xak944:
This should be applicable to any ROM on devices which share internal storage for applications and the internal "sdcard" (Note II, SGS3, probably others). Symptoms may include inability to take screenshots and other failures, and will usually show a "Permission denied" in logcat for files under /data/media/. The underlying problem is that permission is denied to the filesystem, even by the root user when the ROM is booted (this is strange and I still don't understand why). Running "Fix permissions" did not fix this issue for me (that script doesn't change any permissions on the sdcard).

When booted into recovery (ClockworkMod was tested in my case), root has the ability to reset the permissions properly. To fix the problem, connect with adb while booted in recovery and run the following commands to correct the permissions:

chown -R media_rw:media_rw /data/media/
find /data/media/ -type d -exec chmod 775 {} ';'
find /data/media/ -type f -exec chmod 664 {} ';'

UPDATE (Credit to [MENTION=3563640]Quinny899[/MENTION]) If that does not work, you may also want to reset the SELinux contexts for the media partition with this command:

restorecon -FR /data/media/

Hope this helps! :victory:

Well, I created a ZIP of this for people to flash in Recovery, ADB sideload or in an App like Fashify... Only to realize that XDA superstar [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] had already done pretty much the same thing with his sdcard Fix Permissions Script Found here. His script uses pure edify whereas mine uses linux commands.. Both work but his Was First so I will only leave the link for his.

Cheers!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osm0sis:
Yeah it's kinda funny. I had that script posted up in the ADBsync thread back in February because I noticed things could start acting funny when I restored an entire sdcard backup to one of my devices. But hey, great minds think alike! Good work all around!

Thanks [MENTION=2287484]TheByteSmasher[/MENTION] for bringing another use for the zip to my attention! I didn't know those things had a tendency to go awry on their own as well! :D

Edit:

Here's the edify script equivalent of the above, plus the proper original perms for /data/media itself, and the special perms that CWM likes its subfolder to have (root + all). TWRP keeps its backups under the primary user subfolder (/data/media/0) and doesn't seem to care as much.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xak944:
Nice. Good to know this is a well known issue, I thought I was nearly alone (and it drove me up the wall for a while until I figured it out).

Does anyone know what is technically causing even the root user not to be able to write? I'm curious.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osm0sis:
Probably because even root apps only run root commands when they need to, so for simple stuff could run into the same issue. Just a guess, but makes sense.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xak944:
I'm not talking about root apps. When I had the issue I couldn't modify any files with a shell over adb as the root user. Write operations always resulted in 'permission denied' errors. Generally in Linux, the only way this can occur is with filesystem permissions (root user bypasses this), the immutable bit (not set), or if it's a read-only filesystem (didn't appear to be based on the output of 'mount').
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheByteSmasher:
Osm0sis actually states in the description of his zip, that when you use ADB push to put some stuff on the SD it can mess with the permissions... that's what did it for me.. but I guess a nandroid restore can cause it too depending on how it performs the action.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osm0sis:
I'm ditching the idea of editing fix_permissions. The way they do all the system files is extremely intelligent and done on-the-fly based on the contents of certain system files to trace through. Adding something specifically for internal sdcards, even with the appropriate checks, would be a hack compared to all the really great work they've done to make the script device-nonspecific.

I figured it out. If anyone has been having issues taking screenshots- DON'T flash the script if you are on marshmallow and have screenshot issues. Take a screenshot before you create a folder in pictures/. My mistake was I created a folder pictures/screenshot before the system did. So for some reason the system couldn't save my screenshots to that folder since it didn't create that folder. Hope this helps out anyone who has been having issues.

You must know that it is really hard to come with a solution to this because there weren't many posts and as you can tell, the symptoms of the "disease" are too easy to be confused by other things.

Someone must tell you that if you flash your device by pushing it in ADB, everything becomes root owned.

Anyway, you saved my life. I tried the flash from osm0sis but didn't work. The first option of command is the one that saved my OPO.

[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
1. With your setup (stock rom), you need to wait until Asus release the full firmware, then you can upgrade your CWM to the new TWRP(4.2.1 compatible) then use TWRP to flash the 4.2.1, and SuperSu to gain root back. If you decide to go with custom rom then wait until Cleanrom releases the new rom and new twrp patch, you just flash them.

2. Another way without waiting for anything, you need to downgrade back to ICS .30, use debugfs to gain root, install OTA root keeper to preserve root while upgrading to 4.2.1

I would prefer option 1.

Here is the first customized kernel based on firmware 10.6.1.14.4 - Asus' release of Android 4.2.1. Since Asus have not released source code yet, the only thing we can do for now is use their zImage and modify the ramdisk.

This contains my usual ramdisk mods:

* ro.secure=0, ro.debuggable=1 and adb enabled in default.prop

* adb binary with direct root access (thx scrosler)

* dpi unlocked, must/can be set in /system/build.prop instead

* my pre-init binary that allows any ramdisk modification by a script in /system/boot

As a special this time, this package includes the new bootloader. With the old 10.4.4.x bootloader, the kernel boots but hard freezes after a minute. It also includes the new stock kernel modules which are extracted into /system/lib/modules.

In my experiments it was painless to boot older JB 4.1 kernels and recoveries with the new bootloader, and it is possible to downgrade from this bootloader to 10.4.4.25 using fastboot. I still take no responsibility if it does not work on your device, you flash everything at your own risk.

Be patient when flashing - encrypting the bootloader takes almost a full minute.

Do not flash this on any other ROM than Asus stock 10.6.1.14.4 or those derived from it - it won't work due to the new filesystem layout of Android 4.2 (unless you apply a small pre-init script that I will post later).

Anyway, we should talk about /system/boot support - ideally including Hundsbuah. I'd like to see my pre-init hook in all CROMi-supporting kernels so that we have an easy place to support ramdisk mods like Data2SD, or dual-booting Android 4.1 and 4.2. What do you guys think?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Yes, I love your dual-booting and auto data2sd detection. :good:

Overclocking has never been for regular users. But I can learn a lot from Hundsbuah's kernel.

Let's wait and see what that patch is and if it's really needed. Maybe it's related to functionality I didn't use yet. The bootloader seems to be compatible even without any patch.

While this kernel does work with CROMI 3.4 (Android 4.1) when using the proper ramdisk preinit script, I get some pauses and error messages in the kernel log when repeatedly switching between launcher and app drawer (the zoom/fade effect is not smooth).
