Motorola Droid :: Read Only File System - Trying To Push ADB Application
Jun 5, 2010
Rooted my Droid for the first time earlier today, and installed the NexBeast using the handy-dandy Mod Manager. So far everything has been great, but I'm having problems installing non-Market Apps. I'm trying to install a Live Wallpaper from

I am trying to read system logs in my code to generate something like an error report. Similar to adb logcat, but in a programming way.

I am trying to revive white Pandigital using ADB commands to push files on the system's folder of the device then flashing them.
The computer sees the device, adb has root access, yet when trying to push files is gives me an error indication that the system/data/midc is a read only. tried adb remount over and over with no lick. Is there any other way to get to write on the system folder?

I am trying to edit the hosts file to access rest services in my local network. Using adb pull I am able to get the hosts file for the emulator and edit it. However I get the error "No space left on device" when I do an adb push.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Can we increase the space for /system? If so how? Are there any other easier ways to access local area network (without creating a DNS server).

For whatever reason this has been happening a lot to me in the past couple of days. I have never had this problem before. I can get it to work but it seems like I have to reset my phone every time in order to regain access. This is really frustrating because I have been altering the framework and resources files to theme.

i've rooted my vodafone 858 but it didn't install super user although i can type "su" command in adb shell. now i'm trying to delete files located in /mnt/asec (downloaded packages) due to low phone memory. so i tried to do it but when i do the command "rm" for files located in there it tells me permission denied so i entered super user mode and i tried "rm" it tells me "unable to chmod <path> read-only file system" so how can i get past the read only?

I developed a cramfs rom for the np7 after user dochoppy found root for the nextbook premium 7 tablet, but he then converted to ext3 which because its packed with features will be more popular. So I am trying to edit his ext3 rom in Ubuntu 11.10 and here is what I do:
1. Copy and paste system.img to desktop
2. Create a folder called system on desktop
3. In command prompt:
cd ~/Desktop
Sudo mount -t ext3 -o loop system.img system
(Asks for pw)
4. Doc said something about only being able to edit as root, so after some Googling I find out how to create a program that grants root.
5. (Open "run as" program) then I type "nautilus /home"
(Asks for pw)
6. Navigate to mounted system and I have read/write privileges (but only in this window)
7. View the system mount properties, and it says I have 14.2 mb free space on device
8. Delete files throughout the system folder to make room (but when I refresh properties, free space increase doesn't show)
9. Try to add my own files after deleting some others, ans rather than using the increased space, it just fills the fourteen megs before telling me "device is out of memory "
why is the system not physically making the proper system increase and decreases.

I have a android tablet and I have tried rooting it and I get things like "read only file system" and I looked into it and my /system is read only.. Rooting is putting .su in the xbin or bin inside of the /system. But my /system is read only so i can't root my tablet?

Does the X use a FAT32 file system? Is there any way to change this? I'm asking because I have a 4+GB mkv file I want to put on it, but I'm getting a message telling me its too large for the file system. If no way to change, then can anyone suggest a way to make this file small enough to fit?

Im trying to get the 3G mobile hotspot back on my phone and im using rubix. I have mynet.apk in my system/app folder but its not showing up in my apps list. The last rom i used was apex and i was able to use the terminal to push it but the terminals on the app market wont do it. Do i need to change permissions so it will show up in my app drawer?

Just spent 20 minutes searching for this to no avail, so sorry if answered elsewhere. I am rooted. I need a good battery app that will also read my extended battery. Maybe one that has two profiles, and accurately reads both. I'd also prefer percentages in all numbers, not just 10s, but not a deal breaker. Anything out there? The descriptions on the apps themselves are not very in-depth and don't want to keep installing and taking off.

I have been reading up on the concept of push email, and how it's supposed to be a huge battery saver (since in theory, the phone would only receive a notification of an e-mail, and not the actual e-mail itself). I have also been reading up on how the "Gmail" app's version of Push email is not the same as other Push e-mail software, in that it requires the phone to "Sync" whenever an e-mail hits the Gmail server. As a result, whenever I would try to turn Auto Sync off (supposedly to save battery), I would no longer be able to get my e-mail notifications in real time.
With this in mind, I attempted to find another application that would enable me to use Push email for my Gmail account, without having to "Sync" with Gmail's server. After messing around for a bit, I found that I could manually input my Gmail account info (Incoming Server, Outgoing Server, Username, Pass, Etc.) into the stock "Email" app that comes with the X. Once this was done, I was able to enable "Data Push" in the "Email" app's Settings menu (as well turning off any Polling intervals). By doing this, I was able to receive new Gmail notifications through the "E-mail" app, even when Auto Sync had been turned off. As a bonus, I received them around 15 seconds faster than I did with the "Gmail" app's version of Push.....

I use navigation on my motorcycle and I used to be able to use Pandora at the same time, but lately just keeps stalling. Some seem to think in 2.1 Android's memory management is somehow messing with services that Pandora needs to run. Would installing it as a system app help in any way? I am running Cyanogen 5.0.5.7 if it matters at all.

I'm a big fan of Toggle Settings but my one wish would be that it could toggle GPS. From what I understand, the security of Android doesn't allow any app to turn GPS on/off. My question is, since installing Mobile Defense as a system application allows it to turn my GPS on, would installing Toggle Settings as a system app enable the same feature? Does anybody know of a way around this or another app that is similar and can toggle GPS settings?

I need some mechanism so that an Android application can read a file which is provided by a different Android application. I know that it's possible if both applications have the same userid, but it's not feasible because it would require to sign both applications with the same key. The idea is that one application has a zip file which is uncompressed; the uncompressed files must be available to a different Android application. By default, it's not possible because that directory is not readable by the latter application. Is there any directory which can be readable/writable by both applications without hacks? Is there any other mechanism suggested by Android?

There are currently push notifications available for iPhones, Palm Pre and Blackberries each provided by their respective manufacturer. However I have heard nothing for Androids (probably because google does not actually sell the phones themselves.

I'm sure this might be a simple question, but unfortunately this is my first time using Java and working the Android SDK.
I am uploading files on Android using the Apache HTTP libraries, in particular using the MultipartEntity.
I'm uploading to a service that allows me to send them chunks of the file, and once complete, they'll reassemble the chunks. I'd like to take advantage of this feature.
Here's the scenario.
File FOO.BAR is 20 MB. I'd split it into some arbitrary chunk size, let's say 1 MB, which means 20 chunks. Chunks #3 and #14 fail (maybe the cellular/WiFi connection was bad). I can now re-upload just these two chunks and everything will be good.
What I'd like to know is how can I read only part of a file (like the data between 3MB and 4MB)?
The file piece should be an InputStream or File object.
