I have flashed marshmallow and I attempted to root but for some reason system partition still isn't writeable... Anyway-now my root partition show I only have 4kb of free space..I am worried that would create an issue? Any idea why that happened? How can I fix it?
Thank you
This is what I am talking about...
You need to flash a kernel to make system writeable. Then, you may also be low on space. If you are, delete some google apps that you can get from play.

Thank you so much! I will try and flash a kernel and see if I will be able to disable the navigation bar.
On the second part of your answer-what do you mean exactly? Delete the apps from where? System?
Thanks again.

@Pecata i have the same issue, can you tell me what do you mean by "deleted a few" ? i am assuming you dont mean "uninstall" using titanium backup, is it ?

That is an option. What I personally did was delete some keyboard IME files like the Korean one.

maybe you have install other version of the apps and what you are installing is a downgrade version of the apps
What app ? Maybe it's not compatible with the device

before copying app, rename the extension of the original app into something that system can't read.
after that, u can copy it.
see if there's any change.

This happens if it is not signed properly. Use apk manager to extract apk then delete the folder META-INF . Then zip it and sign it.. then try to install this file.. installing via adb is better..

you must be looking at a wrong folder.
go to root folder of your device (where system, sys, etc, sdcard, data, storage and other system folders are) and check there.
edit:
actually, you aren't rooted, that's your problem. root, go to data/media/0/dcim. the photos should be there i think.

give it a try, but i doubt it will work. sorry :<
at least from now on, use the new way to backup. use a cloud backup app. for example for pictures i prefer myshoebox. u can do the same for contacts and everything. that way even if u go to another phone and log in to your cloud, you will always have your apps, your photos , your music , your contacts , everything.
If there is anything to save left ,then best chance is hexamob recovery on play store,but doubt it will find anything besides thumbnails.

then you have partial root. its a normal issue, that happens often enough. to be 100% sure, you can try editing tour build.prop file. if the edits stay after a reboot then you have full root. if they don't stay after a reboot, then you have partial root. which is why viper isn't working. it can also be that your system is full. you can delete whichever apps you don't use from /system/app/, which will give you space. you did say you flashed it but it never appeared. if its full, it can't appear.

So, let me get this straight. You wanted to remove the stock lockscreen and use your own? What exactly is Keyguard.apk? what did you accomplish? I am asking cause I am trying to remove my own (or to be honnest just change it). And what's the difference between the apk and the bak files?

ok. so it seems that in order to prevent a force close you disable it, and then you install a regular app for the lockscreen. thanks!
