[solved] access to encrypted /data

Added by Fil Lupin over 10 years ago

Hi replicants,
I recently encrypted my phone after installing Replicant 4.2 on it (my version has been compiled following instructions on the wiki).

I was looking for a way to push some files on /data. However, I do not succeed into copying some files on /data, even if I can copy files on /sdcard/.
I failed to copy files to /data from my computer which seems normal but I do not find any way to move files from /sdcard to /data passing by the terminal onto the phone.
It seems to me some people must already encountered this issue but I did not find anything here about this... Could anyone help me on this ?

I put attach adb logcat -d if it can help.

How exactly did you try to copy the files?
Going with adb push should do, provided that you ran adb root first to get it running with sufficient rights.

I made a copy by an explorer to /sdcard, which is ok (I can check by a "adb shell" and a "ls /sdcard" it was copied), I check again by a adb push file /sdcard and I can neither copy it to /data.
When I check the content of /data, I obtain this output :

shell@android:/ $ ls /data
opendir failed, Permission denied

But when I restart adbd with "adb root", I can access to /data, thank you !
