trying to move files to system folders with terminal can't chmod 777 write protected

[drezliok]

I want to add chocobowark.mp3 file to my notification sounds insided the system.

I installed a terminal app but I can't find the folder they would be. Oh and I have been su command and ls to poke around with out doing anything to the file system.

/system/media/audio/notifications

thank you, leads me to my next question:

How do I make the filesystem write able?

 

[lift3d]

should be able to use chmod

chmod 777 /path/to/folder

at least that is how its works in linux

just google chmod if your stumped

it told me it could not because the file system was read only.

/system is mounted read-only by default. You can enter the commands to remount it read-write, but a better option is to just put your notification tones in /media/audio/notifications on your sd card. That way you don't lose your tones every time you flash a new rom.

If your using a custom rom type this into adb shell

adb remount
adb push chocobowark.mp3 /system/media/audio/notifications
