This is the message I get when I try to take pictures. I have only taken 9 shots so far. There was no problem until yesterday when i tried to take the tenth. Did I do something to cause this? I am not that tech smart
Samsung Behold 2 :: Understanding File Permissions?
May 4, 2010Understanding Android file permissions
CODE:.....
To Check Permission at anytime in ADB just Type:
CODE:.......
The next 9 characters define the file permissions. These permissions are given in groups of 3 each.
The first 3 characters are the permissions for the owner of the file or directory.
Example = -rwx------
The next 3 are permissions for the group that the file is owned by.
Example = ----rwx---
The final 3 characters define the access permissions for everyone not part of the group.
Example = -------rwx
There are 3 possible attributes that make up file access permissions.
r - Read permission. Whether the file may be read. In the case of a directory, this would mean the ability to list the contents of the directory.
w - Write permission. Whether the file may be written to or modified. For a directory, this defines whether you can make any changes to the contents of the directory. If write permission is not set then you will not be able to delete, rename or create a file.
x - Execute permission. Whether the file may be executed. In the case of a directory, this attribute decides whether you have permission to enter, run a search through that directory or execute some program from that directory
In addition to the file permission, you can also modify the owner and group of the file. The chown program is used here and its syntax is very simple. You need to be the owner of a file or root to do this.
Understanding Owner Permissions:
The first command is for owner ID, the Second Command is for Group ID.
exp. root.root ( First Root is owner, Second Root is Group ).
Chmod 644 some file, Like Build.prop For testing & then Veiw the Resulted Changes!
Refer to the table below as a quick reference.
Command Line for Both would look like this
CODE:.....
I'll update the chmod with more with More Complex Commands Later
Side Note:Always set owner ( chown ) before Setting Permissions
General :: File Permissions - Permanent Change?
Feb 2, 2012I 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?

General :: Find File Permissions Of Application?
Jan 31, 2014how to find permissions a given application has. Each app is run as a certain user, so wouldn't finding the file permissions of an app be the same as finding the file permissions of a user? On Linux/Unix there is the find command but I don't know of any alternative command that is available on android. I am running KitKat 4.4.2 kernal 3.40-gadb2201.

Aug 27, 2009Are any <uses-permission> clauses needed in the manifest for: 1. Writing to a file using the Activity.openFileOutput() mechanism; 2. Writing to the SD card using FileOutputStreams; 3. Sending email using the Activity.startActivity( Intent.create Chooser (...)) mechanism
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/security.html and didn't see anything that seemed relevant. My app works on my ADP1 without any <uses-permission> clauses when installed with "adb install xyz.apk" but I was worried that it may have problems on a "real" consumer device.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Any Way To Hide Certain Application Permissions / Inbuilt File Manager?
Jul 3, 2010I was wondering, is there anyway a developer can hide or exclude a certain app permissions from being seen by Android market users? And are the permissions for an app controlled or regulated by Google? Another question I have - Is there anyway to restrict PDF files from opening in the default browser? This is a problem when I am on a search engine and accidentally click a link that's a pdf file- I don't want pdf's downloaded without asking me permission atleast. And my last question, is there a way to view current extensions that are installed in the browser.? Where is androids inbuilt file manager? Does uninstalling an application completely take off everything related to that app from your phone?

Apr 13, 2013I was following the directions of this thread trying to install notifications toggles to my phone. Used root explorer. However, l changed the permissions on the wrong file or folder, it seems, as the phone just displays the logo and reboots, caught in a loop.
What files and folders has to have which permissions? How can I change them if I can't boot my phone? I don't have any mod other than Root, as this was the first I was trying to use, as I have to have better access to the toggles.
Android :: Traceview - Permissions And Java.lang.RuntimeException - File Open Failed
Aug 17, 2010I'm calling Debug.startMethodTracing("fnord") and I'm getting a java.lang.RuntimeException: file open failed message. It looks like I'm supposed to have the android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission set. But how do you set that permission when you're debugging through Eclipse? Aren't permissions normally set at install time (which doesn't happen in a normal way when you're debugging)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHTC Eris :: Superuser Permissions App Freezing
Aug 7, 2010I'm having trouble with my superuser app and wireless tethering. I just flashed a new rom (xtrSENSE) and successfully set up tethering on my phone. However, I think I screwed something up after that. I allowed permission for access, and went back in to the superuser app later, clicked on the corresponding line and it disappeared. When I went back in to tether my phone today, it transferred to the SU app and promptly froze, later force closing. Every attempt since has had the same result.
I have tried changing several settings and even flashed a new rom (aloysius) to try to fix it. I have no idea what I did, but it freezes then force closes every time I try to get into the SU app. The only thing i can imagine I did is click on the permission but I don't know how that can screw things up. Anyone know what I did or have suggestions to fix? I'm really missing tethering. Thanks!
Went back to an old nandroid backup and restarted my phone... all better now. No idea what the problem was, but it clearly was user error. Sorry to clutter up the boards.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: App Update Permissions - Any Way To Restrict Permissions?
Jul 23, 2012The 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?

May 15, 2010My wife and I both have the Eris and have stayed on 1.5. I got the 2.1 OTA yesterday morning. I've loaded it and am enjoying it quite a bit. I keep checking her phone as we are on the same contract (she's a second line on my contract), but the 2.1 OTA hasn't come into her phone yet. I was wondering if there's a 2.1 file that I would have downloaded OTA, that I can move over to her phone and manually install.

HTC Droid Eris :: Which File Manager App Do You Use?

View 24 Replies View RelatedHTC Droid Eris :: Installing The OTA 2.1 File
May 14, 2010Disclaimer - Try this at your own risk. I'm not liable if you brick your phone. This is a simliar process for installing updates on the Moto Droid.
NOTE: I DIDN'T LOSE ANY DATA AFTER THE UPGRADE, but some people might. I didn't have much installed/setup. My gmail and contacts synced up, my messages were still all there, but my home screens were different.
Okay, this is all coming from 1.5.
As far as I know, Leak Jumpers are out of luck. From what i've heard, V3 leak = Official OTA..(or pretty dang close)
First, download this OTA file:
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/desirec/OTA_Desire_C_Verizon_WWE_2.36.605.1_1.17.605.1_rel ease_0420.79112f65.zip
Rename it to update.zip and put it on the SD card in the TOP LEVEL (root) Directory. So if your SD Card comes up as the F: drive, it will be F:update.zip

View 2 Replies View RelatedHTC Eris :: Boot Loop With No PB00IMG.zip File
Sep 20, 2010My Droid Eris started a boot loop about 2 days ago (the usual complaint - the skateboarding droids, the htc logo, then verizon and htc endless loop). I went to do a soft reset, removed the battery, did a hard reset, nothing works - but here's the kicker - when it loads the fastboot/recovery/clear storage/simlock screen, it says that my file PB00IMG.zip is the wrong image and jumps off the screen within 2 seconds as it loads. I cannot get my computer to mount either - it does not always recognize it, and when it does, it will not let me in to the SD card to overwrite another one. Periodically, it even gives me a lovely phone with red triangle and an exclamation point.
If I had to guess, I'm assuming that that file is the core to me booting the OS (which is still the stock OS at this point)...but somehow it is not working. Or maybe its more than just that...I'm not really sure what to go into next - I know more about playing with registry errors on a desktop than phone software - but I'm willing to tinker and learn. I'm open to any ideas since I have a backup phone temporarily while I make it the 7 days to my next upgrade, but would really like to get this one working if I can. I can't send it in to verizon, since they are saying that it is "water damaged" (even though it has never touched water!) and want to charge me 90 dollars for a refurbished one.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHTC Droid Eris :: File Manager And SD Card
Feb 4, 2010Just downloaded a file manager (two, actually - deciding which one I like best), but in accessing my SD card, I notices a bunch of folders with nothing in them. I'm wondering if this is possibly due to when I switched from my Motorola Droid, they allowed me to take that 16 gb card and put it in my Eris since I had some downloads and photos on it (and, yes, I had to buy a replacement 16 gb card for the Droid, so now I have an extra 8 gig card just laying around doing nothing). So I was wondering, does anyone else have these files? Are they safe to delete? Should I delete them or just leave them? Here is the "tree." I've indented sub folders five spaces and put in parenthesis if the folder/subfolder contains any files/info.

One is 6KB, the other 163KB.) - When I play the .wav files, they give me "directions." I think it's to a place when I went when I had my Droid, but I don't remember and I certainly don't remember saving the location.
