General :: How To Set Permissions With Updater-script
Jul 29, 2012
I'm trying to do an updater-script that subtitutes some data, but i can't set the permissions to the files I replace, since I don't know how to. I've searched a little, but all threads I found say the same thing:
set_perm(UID, GID, mode, "pathtfile");
I know what UID and GID stand for, but I don't know what to put in the "mode" part. run_program("sbin/chmod",) will do the same task, but I don't know how to use it xD. I know how to use chmod though..

The permissions say that you must agree to allow them to delete files from your storage including your SD card; must agree to allow them to extract any information from your phone, etc. In other words they can do any thing they want with your phone and the data in it.
Is there any way to not grant these permissions and still get updates?

I tried to edit the file but it won't save, is there a way to do it with adb or some other way to delete or edit part of the script?

I want to make the updater-script for my update.zip.
how the script is correct. if I want to do this:
1. create a folder "backupApp" in sdcard
2. copy "/system/app/browser.apk" to "sdcard/backupApp/browser.apk"
3. Delete "/system/app/browser.apk".
I want to uninstall browser.apk of the system.

The folders are the app, media, and fonts. I also want to flash build.prop. I want to make the update.zip because I dont want to flash the whole rom over again. How do a make the updater script to do so

This is what I came up with:
For just SystemUI
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
delete("/system/app/SystemUI.apk");
package_extract_dir("app", "/system/app"); [code]....
I've been able to get it to flash fine but then it seems like nothing actually flashed. I'm not sure if the script is wrong or if my compile was bad.
EDIT- Also, how do the updater-binaries get generated? I'm not really sure how I get those. I'd just used one the Battery Mod Tool creates.

I m just rebuilding my stock rom with some mods. Used a random updater script provided in forum (As I don't have my own). Rebuild it in dsixda's kitchen. It says this:
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p16", "/system"); mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p18", "/data");
but I've gathered info via adb of my device that looks like this:

I'm trying to flash my own rom (mtk6589 device) but I get status 6 error on CWM each time I try to flash it.
Here is my updater-script, where is the mistake?
Code:
show_progress(0.950000, 50);
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", "/system");
package_extract_file("check_data_app", "/tmp/check_data_app");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/check_data_app");
run_program("/tmp/check_data_app");
[code]....

Is there a way to have my apps updated automatically? I hate having to go through and update each app individually through the market.

I've just upgraded to 2.1 with VillainRom. The included updater doesn't seem to work. Like the experimental batter fix update. I check for updates, choose the batter update, hit apply and it boots into recovery, does something for 10 seconds and restarts. After checking for updates again, it reappears. Has it installed right?

I found the DroidWall, which has been useful in restricting internet access, but what if I want to deny other apps my location or access to my camera and microphone (facebook), etc?

So I am wondering if we remove a certain permission from an app, does the app still have the ability to use that permissions?
Example: Pandora can read contacts list, I remove that permission from the APK, Can Pandora still read my contact list?

After trying out another ROM which is VillainROM. I am getting this damn error each time my phone loads up, then it gives me a option to wait or close. This is why I always seem to regret trying out any villain ROMs. Always some errors that creep up & folks say they are stable. Is their a way to correct this? Maybe I should try sence build 5. Cause sence 2.2 was good but I wanted to try the new villain.

I have been running Cyanogen 5.0.5 since yesterday. I always jump back and forth between DM Updater and Clockwork depending on what recovery I need to flash a particular rom, update or kernel. Today I cranked up DM Updater expecting it to ask if I want to update recovery and I am getting a "Your SD card is not mounted" error. My SD card is fine. Just for giggles I went into my clockwork recovery and unmounted and remounted. ROM Manager reports no errors. I am at work so I can't install SB Recovery using my current PC using adb as I normally would. I guess the ROM I want to play with (SB Recovery format) will have to wait.

Subject pretty much explains it all. Google wasn't much help.Essentially after Fresh Updater (from 0.5.3) downloads a theme and attempts to apply, my phone reboots with the recovery screen and a "?" above the phone icon instead of a "!"Any help is wonderfully appreciated.Edit: I say instead of a "!" but maybe this isn't even what it's supposed to do.

I've have downloaded, unistalled, and re-downloaded DM Updater and when I open the app I get a message that reads: "Looks like your phone is rooted, but you have not given DM Updater access yet. You *must* check the remember box!"
I am indeed rooted, using sholes 2.0.5 (maybe thats why?) Never had any problems getting 'permission' for an app before. The dialogue box doesn't even pop up when I open DMU like it does with other apps the first time you run them and get the option to allow root access.

When installing a app (after confirm its permissions) - the persmissions like "contact", "calls", etc (all kind of permissions) - are disabled to the dev once I delete the app or he always have access to my info (at permissions) OR at the time I've download the app he have access to the permissions until I delete it and all the permissions are disable?
Usually this information/permissions are availabe to the dev automatically once I install the app or he need manualy to get into this informations? If I force stop the app, will it still have access to my data (permissions) or only if its running?

I accidentally (sure!) removed all permissions on a folder in / so now the system can't even read it to display it in root explorer. I've searched pretty hard and tried chmod and a couple other ideas in the terminal but nothing so far has worked.

Just want to ask how to view the permissions of apps installed but with no permissions shown(even "This app does not require permission.)
Does this present problems for security?

I am having a HTC One X running ProBAM ROM and XM Kernel. It has FastCharge feature by which the phone can charge as if it is connected to AC mains even if it is plugged into Laptop. For this to be enabled, the value '1' has to be written to the following file
/sys/devices/platform/htc_battery/fast_charge
Wrote a small widget to do that job for me. And its working fine
My question is .... I haven't added any permissions in the Manifest file, and also the widget is not asking for any Root request when i use it.... Shoudn't the widget give error since no write permission is available in the manifest and shouldnt it ask for Root access since it is trying to write to a system partition?
I have attached the Eclipse project folder of that widget also.

I am trying to sync a rostering app between two devices using dropsync. The .db files that need syncing are in the /data/ data/com/databases directory. Using Root explorer I can change the permissions to give full rw permission to others. The two .db files will then upload to the dropsync server.The problem is that whenever the app is opened and anything modified, the permissions change back to default and thus dropsync can't access the modified .db... Is there anyway to change this or am I wasting my time? what is the 'sticky' box option in RE?
