thanks for that!
this wiki has been down for days. what gives?
I am having problems incorporating the MOUNTING command into a batch file
this command
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
doesnt work it says
mount: Operation not permitted
is there another way to do this that i havent noticed
I noticed the wiki is still down.
I figured I'd post another link for now that I found has a lot of useful information.
http://www.jonamerica.com/technology/howto-root-the-htc-droid-incredible/
Hopefully when the wiki is back up we can compare the two and move copy some of the useful info from this link.
mount will only work in recovery

I realized that there is a new wiki http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Droid_Incredible but it was empty. I have added a few things to the guide part that some might find it useful.
Does anyone have an issue with me linking this thread DIRECTLY to the wiki?
Is the info above already on the wiki??
Let me know
I see no problems with that.

I'm trying to copy a Camera.apk from my sdcard into the /system/app/
so far this is what i've come up with and I get an error saying I don't have the permission to Change the original Camera.apk:
su
cp /sdcard/Camera.apk /system/app/
reboot
Can somebody please help me with this? I just switched from Win7 to Linux and I realized that using the terminal emulator might be the fastest way to do this without installing the sdk.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4900207&postcount=1
Use the mount line from this thread:
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
that should work..
Thank you

Assuming it worked?
No problem man, welcome to the rooting world.
I found this
http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715913
and this
http://i-miss-erin.blogspot.com/2009/09/connect-bluetooth-keyboard-in-android.html
and i have the same keyboard, so it will be great to get this working
What i did:
via adb:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs4 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
chmod 777 /system/xbin
adb push hidd /system/xbin
failed to copy 'hidd' to '/system/xbin/hidd': out of memory
What is the problem?
Thank you guys!
EDIT: Ok i successfully flashed trough recovery but then i read the whole thread and find out that this thing only works with a non sense rom

We don't have /system rw access. Your best bet is to make a flashable zip for it
That solved the problem, but according to the topic, it dont work on a sense rom On my Pulse i have used Bluekeyboard Jp but on wildfire it isnt working too

I think you can write to /system if you first do
Code:
adb reboot recovery[code]
then remount,rw ect....
Ok, with openfire it is working, Bluekeyboard Jp which on sense rom didnt, here it is also working. What is missing from the sense rom?
hi, I found somewhere a linux command which after running it on android terminal (as rooted):
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
I have been able to read and pull system folder.allthough when I try to manual copy busybox in the directory /system/xbin/ it tells me that there is not enought memory...any ideas how to bypass that too?
I am using eclair 2.1 with hboot 1.01.0001
Are you in the recovery.. When you are doing this?? if so, then enable "Mount /system" under advanced options..

this is HTC's NAND protection. you need to wait for S-OFF to get a writeable system partition. like the previous post mentioned, currently you can only write to system partition when you are in recovery mode (or flash update.zips)
Hi,
I want to deodex stock rom myself, so...
what variables in mount command I should use to properly mount /system partition in rw under adb shell?
Cheers

try: adb shell mount -o remount,rw system
Code:
adb remount
It should do the trick too

lol, that's shorter indeed
adb remount will only remount an existing mount, it won't create one.
It's not clear what the OP wants.
You don't need rw to deodex a ROM because you certainly don't want to write to system whilst you're doing it.
Also, I thought the stock ROM was deodexed?
To mount system in recovery, which will give you rw access and allow you to pull the files you need you just type:
Code:
mount /system
or
Code:
adb shell mount /system
Because system is included in /proc/mtd
to all: the answer is:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system

Hi, this seems to work for me:
Open a terminal (Command Prompt).
type adb shell
type su
You should see a # in your prompt.
type mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
and Bingo! Your /system is now mounted as r/w. [NOTE: There will be no confirmation message. Your command will simply be printed again, and that means its a success)
The possible error might be that you forgot the su part. I'm making a wild guess that it stands for superuser. The first time I tried this, I didn't know about the 'su' and I wasted a little time because of that.
Hope this helped.

First step I think is trouble of data space (up to 1Go) seems too small
My goals is to modify script of saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip to
1 ) create /sdcard/tubuntu.img, ext4 image disk of up to 4 Go
2 ) mount loop /sdcard/tubuntu.img to /data/tubuntu
3 ) create symlink betwen /data/tubuntu/ubuntu /data/ubuntu
Q: Why I don't mount directly tubuntu.img to /data/ubuntu
A: deploy script use temp directories that need to be moved.
Currently process fail on creating file system tubuntu.img with code:
busybox mkfs.ext2 -F /sdcard/tubuntu.img
mkfs.ext2: lseek: Value too large for defined data type :crying::crying:
My saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf+crespo.zip can be found here:
https://drive.google.com/#folders/0B_fPIBhY3pcRSVVBSDY1TjJKQXc
This can be installed with recovery (and should break anything). It take up to 10 minutes to install.
try making it vfat (not sure if ubuntu reads vfat), anyway something like this should be for a 4gb vfat i think.
Code:
mkdir /data/tubuntu
su
dd if=/dev/zero of=/sdcard/tubuntu.img bs=1024 count=4194340
busybox mkfs.vfat /sdcard/tubuntu.img
mount -o loop -t vfat /sdcard/tubuntu.img /data/tubuntu
Edit: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/ would be better for creating ext4 image

vfat can't support linux os...
Never mind, I've solved my problem.
Now I've a disk image tubuntu.img with saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf expended on it.
I've /data/tubuntu to mount this image and symbolic link /data/ubuntu -> /data/tubuntu/ubuntu :good:
Next step, build kernel for crespo with mounting /sdcard/tubuntu.img and use root dir /data/ubuntu...

This work for me, but my kernel build don't. Seem having trouble mounting system partition see attached file for dmesg.
Ok after lot of efforts I've install script creating ubuntu.img (based on saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip) on sdcard and kernel,
kernel mount correctly ubuntu.img but stay locked on google logo...
Adb is working and I retreive dmesg (see debug.txt file)
There are plenty of error and I can't understand what happen , missing knowledge on ubuntu touch process to debug that...
Since first release start on october 17 I think that developpers will be too busy for help now...
I can't progress anymore, current developments are available here
So I wait for help or more documentations on ubuntu touch process to continue...
