Hei!
I've just installed Chainfire 3D on my Iconia last night and when I try to install the driver, it show me this error:
CF3D driver
ERROR
Could not write to /system
I'm on root and I don't have any recovery installed
Thanks
Did it ask you to allow root access to the app? Sounds like it did not get proper root access. When all else fails, reinstall.

Yes, the app ask for root access and I gave him, of course. Let's try to reinstall
[EDIT]= it's the same! It says me that error..

A lesson. Root and /System RW are not the same thing.
You need to open your file manager, (ESFile Explorer, Root Explorer, etc), and set your /System to RW
Then install the app again.

have you seen that 1 click root an z4root don't really make a full root of our x10s???
I was trying to put some ringtones on the notification folder (inside system/media/audio) but I was unable to do it :S it said I lack of the permissions :S
Still need to crack the shell. Use root explorer or something.

Did you install Busybox from the Android Market after rooting with z4root? I believe this is what is used to grant superuser capabilities. Root Explorer should allow you to push those files after this.
busybox wouldn't install on mine after i'd "rooted" using z4root.. and now the superoneclick won't work for me either (I've just installed JIT)...
installed busybox and didn't work at all

Just use ringdroid if you like to add ringtone or notification sound. No need root. And btw z4root works good for me

I just rooted mine today. apparently there are a few versions of busybox that don't work as they should. I installed titanium after root. Load titanium, it will tell you it can't get superuser rights but will start anyway. Click the "Problems" button at the bottom of the screen and it will download a reliable version of busybox.
I hope this helps.

Didn't work for me either. When trying to download BusyBox through Titanium, I get an "install failed". Went to market and downloaded busybox from there but gives me a "your phone is rooted. Could not locate busybox".
I have an X10a through AT&T R2CA016. Do I need to debrand it before rooting?

You don't need to debrand before rooting. When you download/install Busybox from the Market, open it and it will give you the option of which version of Busybox you want to install/use, select the one you want and run it. Then you can use Titanium after that.
z4root worked fine on my x10. used superoneclick to apply shell root after that but busybox installed fine before that.
Will z4root work on my 2.1-update1 X10?
I have the Nordic Unbranded version with build No. 20A0504 or something...
I only need root to access the Japanese market, nothing else (don't care about otifications etc).
Will it work then? If I use z4root?
Oh, and it wont mess up my SD card, contacts or battery or anything like that?

old post i know....but it works fine for me....had you mounted in R/W mode? it should say R/O at the top if you have. I just copied an mp3 file straight into the internal memory (/system/media/audio/ringtones)
That what I do!
I use a "Flash tool release"
root by installing the z4root
then I i install busybox
and to get full access I install rootexplorer and reamount system to the rw the in rootexplorer
then use the "X10modtool" XDA Tool So Always when i try to change staff in my x10 I just open rootexplorer and re amount
Then use Adb shell and staff
(Work 100% for me)
The reamunting it just does not work when use seus or PPC - the ADB is close in the production version of the SE system
By the way How to turn on the ADB in the SE ?? (permittions)
In summary when you install XDA apps just add rootexplorer and reamount to rw
Im looking for ways to do it directly from the phone. Ive tried apps from the market(these only temporarily uninstall until next reboot). Ive tried Root Explorer and deleting from the system apps file(says read only file can't be deleted).
i need help. im hoping a custom ROM wont have to be cooked, i would really like to do it from the phone. Because straight up, i dont know how to do it. If someone out there does, im definitley willing to pay all i want is my stock glacier rom minus these apps:
amazonmp3.apk
AppPack.apk
Asphalt5.apk
com.htc.StockWidget.apk
DockPanel.apk
HTCSetupWizard.apk (not sure if safe)
Monopoly_Classic.apk
rockband.apk
SelfHelp.apk
Stock.apk
TMOUS_myTouchdemo.apk
Yahoo_im.apk
Yahoo_imvideo.apk
yahoo_mail.apk
and also if someone knows the file name for the NEWS and NEWS WIDGET, im unsure of the .apk name
I use SU file explorer as my root explorer app. if you press menu, there will usually be an option that says "mount system as r/w", that will give you the ability to delete from the system/app folder.

Please post questions in Q&A section.
Install titanium for root the free version. Click problems, download the busy box update (itz necessary) go to the app you don't want and just click uninstall. Will delete permanently if you are perm rooted. To get perm root, type in visionary apk r14 in google search bar, go to the 2nd link and download visionary, then click temp root, and after that is done click on perm root. Finished if you are not rooted, download visionary first, when you open up titanium backup, it will say asking for superuser permission click on allow

Its WORKKS! thank you Hawaiian! it does take some time seeing how it reboots after every app, but very well worth it!
I am running LeeDrOiD, but I know many people have this issue.
If you are trying to update Superuser from the market, and you get invalid signature and installation fails. This is my work around, which works for me.
My rom had superuser.apk and not Superuser.apk, which linux takes as two files whilst windows references everything in capitals.
Download Superuser Update Fixer.
Run the application, which will say that signature fails. Then run the fix, which will say okay all the way through and the signature still fails.
Download Root Explorer, and mount /system/ as rw.
Go to /system/apps/ and you will find Superuser.apk and superuser.apk, rename or delete superuser.apk and then rename Superuser.apk to superuser.apk.
Restart your phone.
Go to app drawer, and launch Superuser. Your whitelist and blacklist has been erased.
Run Superuser Update Fixer and you should see signature match is okay, now click update from market and enjoy.

thanks for your work, can explain what exactly the app is doing?

I don't think there is. There may be another app that does this job though. You need something that can mount system rw.
It may be possible to do this step with ADB, however I just posted how I did it.
ES file explorer has this system rw option, it says that it only works with CM and some other rom but it works for me and I'm running leedroid. Only problem is you have to unmount and mount it again every now and then.
Yeah to make it work just select the non CM7 mod option, HIAPK i think it's called? either way just select that one, apart from what the guy above me said about the remounting every now and then, should be a good substitute for root explorer
I downloaded superuser from market and the fix but wen using es explorer i only see one superuser?

I only have the Superuser.apk, but still have problems on the update. I had lost root and just decided to reroot, but got the Ninja Icon app. I tried to update - sig failed. Tried the Update Fixer and on changing to 644 fail, check sigs fail. Then I tried this.
Any other ideas on how to get it?

This was on first boot after installing the rom. I selected allow.
I do, however, still get an error about not having root access too. So annoying.

[Q] "Your device has been modified. Software updates not available" Unrooted
Hi,
I rooted my device with Odin/CF autoroot (still on stock rom)
I now want to get the official update. I've unrooted by using the 'Permanently Unroot' within Super SU. I've cleared the cache partition in recovery. I do not have an SD card.
It still says modified and won't update. Can anyone offer assistance?

The problem is going to be you have to be rooted to delete it. It is safe and should have been removed before you unrooted.

Sorry for being such a pain in the ass but under system/xbin I only have
daemonsu
daemonsu-old
dexdump
su
Nothing busybox related.
I've done a full search using ES File Explorer of my local files - 0 results found for busybox.
This may or may not have anything to do with the update issue but it's worth a try. Sometimes the damensu-old file will remain in xbin after unroot. Next time before unrooting uninstall any play store update to the supersu app then unroot from settings in supersu. After you unroot use es file explorer to confirm that the only file left in xbin is dexdump. Then try the ota update.
