I was trying to modify the build.prop
file under /system
directory. But this file is protected by system, we cannot directly edit it.
I have tried several solutions listed below:
- To utilize
RE(Root Explorer)
to modify the permission of/system
, however this method is failed on my G6 legend withCM version android 2.3.7, modified by Devil
. 2.I got some Tips from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=664532&page=18. In this post, they argued that modifying/system
is only granted in the recovery mode. -
So I did it in the following steps:
- Connect my phone to PC and test whether ADB is available.
- Turn off the phone.
- Hold on the back button and press the turn-on button. Thus, the phone will go into the bootloader.
- Enter the recovery menu, and find the advance option. ( WARNING: if you don’t know how to enter the recovery mode, please find related articles and read it carefully. )
- Select Mount
/system
and press on it. The option will becomeUnmount /system
, which is successful result. - On PC, run command
adb remount
. (This step maybe optional, I haven’t attempt to ignore it yet :) - And then, run
adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
. so far, your file must has been push into/system
- Select
Unmount /system
and press on it. Restart yout phone to check the changes.
