hi , i got a galaxy s4 gt-i9515 4.4.2 (build ver. that ends with NK2)
i rooted it using this guide: " can't post the link since new user but is by mrwolf s4 towelroot etc.. ", with the right NK2 kernel file.
i checked with root checker and it says root is ok, and using the paragon ntfs app i see in settings that SELinux is on permissive.
My problem is that i can't figure out a way to read ntfs devices with s4; the only way i can read them is using Total Commander + Paragon Total Commander plugin but i don't like the Tot. Com. interface plus i need to download the file form the drive to see them.
Using Paragon ntfs app when i mount the drive (WD 1tb or any ntfs pendrive.. tried both) the warnign on top "blank disk etc. " remain and i can't find the files anywhere in the phone i tried using defalut viewer and File Manager with root access on it, i looked everywhere in any folder , i tried using different apps too like USB OTG helper but it says code 9 error and in the folder that it should be mounting the drive i can't see anything.. is empty.
Did i really root my phone?i see the knox counter is 0x0.
Plus i notice that in sdcard there are folders named paragonntfs_1 2 3... etc i can't even delete them .. i finally did delete the paragonntfs_4 fodler but the others says write protected
Can you help me?
Android does not have native NTFS support, and to add it would require creating a new kernel with NTFS baked in. Have you tried this app to access your NTFS volumes, rather than Total Commander?

How I access extsdcard of my Galaxy Note. Download ES File explorer and go to /mnt. There you can access extsdcard, sdcard and usbdisk.
To play divx/avi video, I use Mobo or MX player.
I hope this helps or nobody posted a similar topic yet.
Bugger, couldn't find the my SD card so I bought root explorer.
But thanks for the tip re- Videos
You need to go to settings and check root explorer. And you either
edit the home directory to / just above where you check the root explorer option or you can go back to the main page and press the favorite icon on the left and press cellphone / icon and then /mint. I can even access my USB flash drive using OTG USB host adapter.
I used the solution posted by sirtrancealot in the ROM thread (make sure the external_sd folder exists):
mount -o bind /mnt/extsdcard /sdcard/external_sd
sirtrancealot's post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21231138&postcount=325
I then used ROM Toolbox Scripter and created a script which I set to run at startup.
I have only used this since I got my SD card yesteday, but it has served me well.
Hello,
i need some help.. the gps in my phone takes alot time to lock(?)...
someone created a gps.conf to replace the original file in system folder.. however i cannot replace the file neither edit it (i have root and tried it with ES Explorer)..
am i doing anything wrong? and how can i access the filesystem by usb? i tried booting the phone with power+vol up/down.. but there (pink screen) no drive was mounted..
thanks and sorry for possible english errors!
if you are using ES File Explorer, you need enable 'root' option and 'mount / /system as read/write' option to replace the gps.conf file
I have same problem.
I had rooted and flashed CW to get 2.2.1 -> Official 2.3 -> ICS
But on step 2. what needs to root and CW to get ICS it is impossible to get the system rooted and flashed again.
When going with + - on boot to magenta screen, Windows (Or Linux) does not recognize any drives to be mounted. Were there a external MicroSD card in slot or not.
I have now rooted device two different way and both say that device is rooted. Even the phone itself says that it is rooted. But no sudo is working so I can not even enable SE Manager root functions or to re-mount any partition as read-write mode because applications does not have root rights.

No, only image folder.

Done it. Replaced the file
Hi
I have debian squeeze on my GT-I9505 installed (via debian kit) and I want to use sshfs. I have mounted my server to a folder (/mnt/ssh).
I can access to this folder from terminal but when I want to access it via file manager I get an empty folder.
I searched and I found this. But I don't know how should I apply the patch. Does anyone know any custom kernel support this fix. I searched a lot but I found nothing for GT-I9505.
now I'm using Omega V.3.0 rom and Adam kernel.
Thanks
(sorry for my bad english)

In TWRP you have a build in file manager. Look for it.
You can use an ftp app like this one :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t+ftp&pcampaignid=APPU_1_NTEOVpDRFsP-aYnvkIgK
Its a paid app but you can find similar ones free on playstore.

No he cannot. Because his device did not boot.
By custom recovery, there is a solution to create a flashable patch to correct error by replace app or delete it.
I can do it if i have infos and upload it there
Use ADB to fix it with shell by pulling/editing/pushing files.
I am on android 7 and have an issue with the emulated folder. by default it is not readable or writable. the problem that i am facing is that when I am in an app and going back threw folders to access a removable flash drive, I cant get out of the emulated folder and into the parent folder (storage).
In a file explorer if i view /storage/emulated permissions, it is not readable or writable by anything other than root. If i try to change permissions, I get an error access denied.
I havent tried it through shell yet. What would that look like?
anyways, anyone got a fix for this? I want to make the folder rrw or fully rw
Hmmm what apps are you using. Name your file explorer and it's version.
What did you use to root, what package from what source?.
Personally i flashed supersu from supersu.com/download which is systemless root.
Some apps and file explorers may not be compatible with systemless root.
For example i use es file explorer v3.2.5.5 and i had to copy paste the content of /su/bin to /system/xbin in order to recognize root and enable rw permissions.

I will look into that. I think I have system root though and using esfileexplorer pro.
Emulator apps are my issue though. I try to navigate to my flash drive to set up sons and save. Storage is fine but storage/emulated though is tricky.. Some apps will just recognize that it don't have access but still let it up folder to /storage/ where I can then select flash drive...
Other apps will get hung on the emulated folder.. Not letting me folder up further.
Its a pain.. And to solve, I would just like full access to emulated

Thing is that you need to get a popup to grant permissions to the root of the extrrnal storage you want to use, then a windows will open where you can select your device and then hit select button.
You're not getting that.
So i suggest to change to systemless root which is proven to work and test by yourself.
I do not have AndroidTV installed but full Android Nougat yet that basic feature if i remember correctly is available even without rooting because i backup my stuff to my external USB flash drive before flashing custom firmware and i never rooted while in AndroidTV.
Now, i use Hyperspin with Retroarch and all my hyperspin folder with system,roms,etc is in my external USB 3.0 flash drive and works great no issues with those apps recognizing the external storage. Same goes for writing to my microsd with other apps
