I was able to root my phone with the program above and i can see an icon of Super User in my screen but even like this i cant change the bootanimation of the device.
When i open the media folder where is the original bootanimatio the permission is only READ.
what file manager are you using?
you can use es fileexplorer from the market(free) than enable R/W so you can replace your bootanimation
Im using File Manager from Rythm.
Using a different File manager would change that? Strange but i will try
Problem solved with ES Explorer.
You can put the boot animation in /data/local anyway, so you don't remove your 'built in' one.

I have Root Explorer installed and I am trying to rename a file in the directory system\media and copy a new .zip file to the location. When I have executed the process it changes back to original file.
I have checked the Mount R/W button at the top of Root Explorer as well.
I have checked to make sure the superuser is in the whitelist for Root Explorer.
I also can not add .apk files to the apps folder as well.
What can I do to resolve this.
TIA.

I resolved it. I needed Busybox.
I figured I had rooted my TP but have just tried to change some file attributes (so I can delete a ui image from moboot) only to find that it won't let me. I've tried accessing the files in ES Explorer and Root Explorer with no luck so now am wondering whether my TP is rooted at all?
Can anyone tell me how to do it (root the TP and change permissions of files) please?
Thanks
In es file explorer in settings you need to select "root explorer" and "mount system" then you can long press on a file and select properties and change permissions.
Thanks mate. Will try that right now. Cheers

Im using default rom Android 5.0.2
Device unlocked and rooted
I want to switch off capacitiv buttons. I have read some methods and I applied them but I don't know why I could not save my modifications on the related files. (all under system folder )
I give root permission to es file Explorer I modified the files I have save them but after reboot they are all gone.
Now I did it with a kernel modifier app. But I want to turn it off permanently without any other program
Thanks for your answers
