So I tried for quite some time today to get this solution to work only to find myself completely unable to rename or delete the liboemcrypto.so file. I am rooted and running the stock vzw 6.0 rom but I can't figure this out. Tried a couple different root file managers and nothing worked. Some would tell me the rename/delete failed, others would act like it worked and then the file would still be there unchanged. Any suggestions? I assume I'm missing something simple...

Since I don't know how to do that I would say I did not...

I dont have that file... I'm set to show all hidden files and have system mounted as r/w. I checked in system/lib and in system/vendor/lib and no go

It seems to me that you have problem either of your root or correct permission of bootanimation you try to install. What happened when you try to install it?

I'm rooted and it isn't the permissions
I even deleted the original bootanimation and when opened again the folder it was there again

You used file explorer to check out your /system/media folder right? which one? But if you delete something there it not supposed to be there if you have correct rw permission there. I first think that it could be problem with bootanimation you try to install but if you can't delete something there for good I guess first look at your permission to write that folder.

I tried many and different bootanimations not just one and with different ways. I'm rooted and I use the root browser and the permissions are right. But the when I delete the original bootanimation or overwrite it after entering the media file it is there. (when I tried with recovery I got an error)

Basically no and yes. I moved the audio folder it moved successful but when I got back it was both at the moved and original location.
It's like the system generates the missing files by it self

I was suggesting factory reset.. Anyway have you tried another root file manager? (i use root explorer and everything works here, but you should try several apps)

Nope I prefer staying with the original bootanimation than doing factory reset

Root again. Use "Easy Root Tool". If it stuck cleaning part just run it again and you should be good.
I was trying to change Xperia S bootanimation last year. Ending up to find that problem is much deeper then basic root and root explorer.
Didn't find the way how to apply custom one.
As I remember is somehow connected with bootloader or kernel

Don't know about Xperia S but with Z1 I can change bootanimation. I use X-plore by Lonely Cat Games with r/w rights and have zero problems.
I would suggest you do not have root.
Check if you have killed the ric.
Goto sys/kernel/security/Sony_ric and see if the file called enable says 0 or 1. Also check it just after a reboot.
If it's a 1 you will lose write permissions to the system partition after a reboot, which explains the symptoms you are talking about.
Changing the boot animation had nothing to do with kernel or bootloader, you just have to change the bootamimation.zip in system /media

T-Mobile Stock Rooted, Noble Kernel= Netflix, and Hulu won't stream the video

Netflix only shows the red loading circle never plays the video, Hulu buffers then doesn't play the video just shows the time of the video. I tried Youtube thats fine, HBO Go is fine, Amazon Video works, these are the only two culprits that aren't working.....anybody know why? Please, and Thank you......

assuming you're using a SM-N920T, i believe this issue is resolved using Arter97's kernel. his kernels have been very stable with the Note 5. hope it works for you.
Thanks, will try.
Nope didn't work problem still persists.

sorry to read this... what ROM are you using? did you also rename the /system/lib/liboemcrypto.so file? i've read that this file impacts streaming services as well.

Im just using the stock rom that's rooted, and the stock modified kernel. what do you mean about renaming that particular file, and I'm sorry to be a pain, but where would I find that file and what would I use to accomplish it, would es file explorer do the trick?Thank you.

no worries bro... since i don't know your experience with Android and making these kinds of tweaks, make a nandroid/backup using TWRP or Philz recovery. you want to be able to recover in case there's an issue. the liboemcrypto.so file is located in the path/folder i listed: /system/lib/. and yes, you can use ES File Explorer as long as it has Root access to the /system folder. (i use a paid app called Root Explorer. in my opinion, it's easier to work with and has the same functionality as ES File Explorer, minus the pretty UI.) With ES File Explorer you'll be prompted by SuperSU to grant Root privileges (access) when trying to rename a file in the /system folder. once you have access, find the file /system/lib/liboemcrypto.so and rename to /system/lib/liboemcrypto.so.bak. you would reboot your device and then see if this fixed the issue.
Greatly appreciated.
I've got this problem on my Sprint phone and the rename of that file fixes netflix, not sure about Hulu. I'm having problems with Google movies not working...

I had the same problem with my rooted SM-N920I. rooted with spacex V0.1. Netfix and Google Movie was not streaming. Renaming liboemcrypto.so to liboemcrypto.so.bak ( located in /system/lib) fixed Netflix. Google movie is still broken
Bump
I've tried to both delete and rename this file using two different file managers and I get an error both times.
You need an older version of Netflix. I'm using 3.7.1 build 1711. I haven't used hulu do not site on that one.

If you cannot delete liboemcrypt
You cannot delete file because files stem is mounted in read only mode.
You need go to a terminal emulator. Then:
su -
mount -o remount,rw /system
rm path_to_file
mount -o remount,ro /system

Help.. phone bricked, deleted /carrier applications

I was trying to cleanup carrier bloatware off my phone and I think I deleted some apps that were critical.
I deleted ItsOnService.apk (NetworkSystemProvider) and ItsOnUID.apk. Unfortunately I didn't make a backup of them. Then, wifi and LTE/3g stopped working (even if Wifi is connected, internet is permanently not available).
The worst part of this is that the issue persists after reflashing back to stock. The problem is I don't think the stock roms contain the /carrier directory. And now I cannot complete the setup wizard because at first boot, I'm forced to select a wifi network and once I connect internet is not available, so the wizard won't proceed.
Is there anything I can do? If someone were to send me the missing APKs could I use recovery mode and sideload them?

I do have the rooted image, as well as the stock image, I have applied both, the problem still exists. I think when I reroot or reflash it's not writing the /carrier directory, that must have come from somewhere else. I confirmed this by unpacking the TOT file and looking inside, it has all the apps, but it does not have the /carrier directory. Do you have ItsOnService.apk and ItsOnUID.apk? Maybe I could try sideloading them?

You need to know exactly what you deleted. The itsonuid is in the system/priv-app directory. I didn't see the itsonservice but didn't spend much time looking. You need to know if you deleted things out of carrier partition or vendor partition or both... Get a list together...

Thanks, I can confirm what you're saying, I did find ItsOnUID in system/priv-app, so at least I can restore that one. However, I am pretty sure ItsOnService is in /carrier and I deleted it using ES File Explorer. I had deleted ItsOnUID with Titanium Backup. Titanium Backup was not able to find ItsOnService, so that's why I had used ES File Explorer, which confirms that ItsOnService must have been in /carrier.
Since it looks like there is no /carrier directory in these TOT files, is there some other way I can get ItsOnService.apk? Can anyone out there send it to me?

Can't find obb folder! Some help?

Ive used my droid turbo for 18 month or so. I always enjoy the convenience of installing an app first and drag data into the obb folder under emulated/0/Android.
But yesterday, I can't find it anymore(all those app data is not lost). I wanted to create a new obb folder but the phone tell me that the folder already exists. When I connect the phone to my computers(both mac and windows), I still can't find the obb folder and as I drag in a blank obb folder that I've just created, my phone crashed and restart. I used shell to check permission and it turns out the folder is there and I have full permission to Read and Write. And I backed up my device and give it a wipe. But no luck.
So, I know that the obb folder is still there, but hidden. I think it may be the Es explorer since the problem happens after I used es explorer to clean app residue after deleting an app which could trigger the write protection?
So Im bit frustrated after working on the issue or this long. So Im asking you guys, have you ever run into issues like this? Is there a viable solution?
Are you rooted? If so, try Root Explorer to see if you can see it.
Wouldn't hurt to re-flash SuperSu again in TWRP, either.
On the droid turbo it was a pain to find this folder, went with some suggestions creating new one, copying the whole folder. etc none worked, I gave up on the phone at that time also bootloader was locked, I went with moto maxx, what a ease

Sadly, I haven't rooted my device yet....any alternatives?

OBB folder locked.

It seems my android\OBB folder is write protected. I can't install certain apps that need to write to this folder. I can't seem to unlock it and have been trawling Google for solutions.
I can delete the folder, then create a new OBB folder, but I still can't copy a folder into it. I'm using a rooted EU rom if this helps. Thanks
It is rooted device with EU rom on it
Can someone check on their phone if they can copy a file or folder into the obb folder? I'm getting very desperate for a fix

I have faced this exact problem a few weeks ago. It started after I flashed a ROM, MiRum if I'm not mistaken. Tried deleting it via TWRP and make a new folder, changing the folder permission, no luck. I don't know how exactly I got my issue resolved, but I think wiping your data (storage) will do. Just backup your data, wipe your device clean, reflash your ROM, restore everything, and you'll be good to go...I guess.
I'm sorry if I can't be of more help to you in this regard.

Thank you for this. I have seen this and unfortunately on miui 10 this option is not there. The only option for mock sd card is to formal it. There is nowhere to enable/disable it. Not that I can find with developer options also enabled.
have you ever try to toggle "MIUI Optimization"? will it help?
or you may check the group/permission of the folder, here is mine
6815767 drwxrwx--x 72 root sdcard_rw 4.0K 2019-06-13 10:12 data

Thank you
I am going with a wipe and reinstall of everything. Hope this works
And a fresh wipe and install fixed it
