Help! Syntax please

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
I have typed that in 5 times and it says it's a syntax error. I'm guessing it's a space issue or something. My phone is down.
What is the exact syntax?
Thanks

Are you sure your at the root prompt? Looks like this # and not this $

That syntax is correct. Are you invoking busybox's mount?

I finally got it, thanks.
The way it shows in the root guide is:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
The way I had to type it.
mount -o rw, remount -t yaffs2/dev/block/mtdblock3/system
It turned out to be a spaces issue.
I got that part done and then is said "Can't cd sdcard"
My sd card is formatted fat 32 and loaded the rc29 fine but won't cd to sd card. Does it need partitions or something?
Honestly, this is one of the most frustrating things I have ever done in trying to root this phone. Now I can't even use mount -o rw, remount -t yaffs2/dev/block/mtdblock3/system.
Please help me out I am still getting usage errors. It must be something to do with spaces in the syntax of mount -o rw, remount -t yaffs2/dev/block/mtdblock3/system

The syntax of those lines is all messed up. You need spaces between "yaffs2" and "/dev/block/mtdblock3" and "/system". If your phone is already rooted, just hook it up to adb and type adb remount.

Thanks jashsu, that did it. For a total noob like me, I just didn't understand.

mounting the data partition

I know this works for mounting the system
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
but whats the string for mounting the /data ?
either in adb or terminal emulator
Yes I have/am searched/ing.....
Thank to whom ever can answer

type remount and look for the data in adb it should list off strings

more clarity please. Trying a bunch of options still getting acces denided and operation not permitted
If it helps I cant even adb shell then su.
Yes I am rooted
Yes my phone is in pc mode

Finally got a chance to test it last night, and it worked! thanks!

Installing service.jar

How do you do it? Just same as adb push? Or any special way? Don't wanna get stuck to bootloader again.....
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I just do this
Code:
adb push services.jar /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/userdata /data
cp /sdcard/services.jar /system/framework/services.jar
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/userdata /data
reboot

Mount system doesn't work

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
When i'm on step 3 "mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system" it tells me
mount: Invalid argument
How can i fix this? USB debug is on

Could this be a ROM related problem?

[HELP] broken lcd + after working with adb doesnt boot

Hey xda-community,
might be a long text to read but i want to make it as detailed as possible :/.
I have an i9070 with broken lsd (+touch not working) and pattern lock.
i booted into recoverymode (TWRP) and removed the pattern lock via adb shell ("rm /data/system/gesture.key").
i wanted to use [email protected] so i tried to activate USB Debugging via adb shell.
in the internet i found a method and tried it right away
i had to pull /system/build.prop
add the line "persist.service.adb.enable=1" in the file
and after that i had to push it back, but i couln't.
So i searched to mount /system r/w ..... (prob for the false device ,_, )
i tried the 1st command and forgot the 4 in ext4, so i typed it like this in the adb shell:
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
after that i was able to push the build.prob back, and used
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
afterwards.
Rebooted it and it stuck while booting prob.
So i tried the push back the original build.prop. (thought it might be the cause)
Still not booting..
I ended trying all commands without any order:
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system
chmod 755 system
chmod 777 system
i used also mount..../mmcblk0p3 instead of mmcblk0p8 because after using "mount" it showed behind the /system mmcblk0p3 ...
i messed too much around as a newbie :crying:
I am still able to use adb in recovery mode but cant acces the internal storage.
Would be nice if someone could help me
Ty if you read the whole text .. ^^
