Hi!!
Really need a hand right here.
I have got the f320k, and it successfully updated to 4.4.
After that, I tried to root it, but it kept showing:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to chown /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to chmod /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
I tried couple of times, it turned out to be the same as the above.
Then I got into download mode, it shows the phone is rooted.
Does it mean that I have rooted the phone only with a shell privilege but not root?
coz in the cmd, it didnt show as # but $.
Could anyone please give me some advice?
Thank you so much!
Hey,

I have rooted my S4 i9505 and installed Samsung Multi Window Manager, but when I try to open the app I get the following error message. . .
java.io.FileNotFoundException: / system/csc/others.xml: open failed: EROFS (Read-only file system)
I also briefly see this message on a Toast
Mount -o remount, re /dev/block/mtdblock5/system; chmod 777 /system/csc/others.xml
It looks to me like the app is unable to get access to the file others.xml.
SuperSU says the app has been granted access, but it just won't work.
Has anyone else seen this bahaviour or know how to fix it?
eves popseum
Aaagh was hoping this would be an easy one. . . .
Let me see if I can tease some other ideas out of you. . .
I'm clutching at straws here, but the next thing I want to try is uninstalling and reinstalling SuperSu, but before I do that, could someone just confirm that it is safe to do.
I ask, as on the Google Play it says you have to be careful, but I'm hoping that only applies if you are going to replace it with something else.
Anywho, if someone could just confirm that, that would be great.
I'm also thinking of running...
Mount -o remount, re /dev/block/mtdblock5/system; chmod 777 /system/csc/others.xml
through Terminal Emulator, again was just hoping to check if this is safe thing to do.
Thanks
I'm still trying to solve this problem. . .:fingers-crossed:
I ran the following command. . .
Mount -o remount, re /dev/block/mtdblock5/system; chmod 777 /system/csc/others.xml
through Terminal Emulator to see what would happened and I got the following message. . .
No such file or directory.
So, I checked to see if mtdblock5 exists on the phone, and it doesn't.
So todays question is should mtdblock5 exist on my phone? (I seem to be the only one who can't get this app to work)

Scrumbeans - I am having the exact same issue. Did you ever find a solution? I have already tried reinstalling, flashing SuperSU, and changing permissions of system/csc/feature.xml and system/csc/others.xml, but no progress. This only became a problem after i upgraded to Android 4.3 yesterday. If you have found the solution could you please post it? Thanks!!

Sorry to drag up such an old thread but I too am having the exact same issue as mentioned in the OP.
I've got a Note 10.1 N8010 with stock rom, rooted, Android 4.4.2. I've checked the permissions to the file and indeed they are 777 and the file is writable. As a test, I made the file unwritable using a file manager, upon launching Multi Window Manager it automatically corrects this back to 777 again so it knows the file is there and is able to change the permissions on it but it still says FileNotFound?
I wondered if the partition that the file resides on was mounted as RO but I've downloaded another app which has changed /system to RW but still no joy.
Desperately looking for a solution to this, any help would be very much appreciated.
I am a D802t users. I rooted my phone under 4.2.2, then it OTA to 4.4.2 and found the phone became unrooted. Today I used USB flash to a totally new official system and use Toolkit v1.5 from XDA, but still failed. The log was as following:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
cannot stat 'su': No such file or directory
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
mount: Operation not permitted
Installing superuser
can't find 'superuser.apk' to install
Would anyone like to tell me how to root my phone? Thanks a lot.
you can do it with towelroot

Hi mate
Seem like you lost root ...yes re root again , it should solve your problem
Up.. any ideas pls?
Any ideas on how to solve this? I'm having the same problem on my Galaxy Note 2 (SPH-L900) running 4.4.2. Re-rooting with Odin and the latest CF file doesn't help; it still reports the same problem. I've tried un/reinstalling SuperSU, but that doesn't make any difference, either. Any help would be wonderful.

Delete everything Knox related.

I'm already running a custom Community ROM that already has all the Knox stuff removed. It came rooted, and worked fine for several months, until it magically lost root access a month ago.
I *REALLY* don't want to wipe the phone and flash a new ROM, because my lack of root access means I haven't gotten a complete backup in over a month.
Hi All,
I am trying to root my LG G2 D802 (KitKat 4.4.2, Kernel 3.4.0) by using IOroot. I am getting the error:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
mount: Operation not permitted
Installing superuser
4371 KB/s (1468798 bytes in 0.328s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/superuser.apk
Success
In addition I checked and the phone seems to be rooted (with a couple of apps).
1. Why am I getting these errors?
2. I tried to install twrp and it seems its installed, however I am not able to backup, I am getting a message its cannot mount system, data, etc..
Any ideas? Thanks
Use towelroot
just install towelroot from towelroot.com by clicking on the 'lambda' sign there. one finished, install it and click on the 'root' or 'let it rain' button. you will be definitely successfull in rooting your device. towelroot has never disappointed me ever. hit the thanks button if it helped. *wink*

Hey man, its actually that my phone was encrypted, totally forgot about that. So I just decrypted and everything worked. Thanks anyway
Im all out of options, I have no idea what else to do. Here is what I've tried:
1. Used the ioroot but it shows device not found right after it reboots into recovery mode but no error shows up .
2.Tried an older version of ioroot but this came up:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
mount: Operation not permitted
3. Tried TowelRoot but shows that my device is not supported.
I have no idea what else should I do now :/ Any help is appreciated.
PS: I cant use the newer version of ioroot now, it just shut down by itself when I press any key to start it.
EDIT: Ok I had to manually use CMD to install it.
