Guest Dan Staines Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I am unable to delete voicemail-conf.xml using ES Explorer but there is no 'europe' folder in my 'cust' folder either. Edit: Ignore me; I was looking in data/cust when in fact the 'cust' folder is in the root directory. There is also a folder named 'normal' between 'cust' and 'europe' on my phone. Edit 2: Still can't change or delete the file, though. :-( I struggled with this too - for me the file I wanted to change was /cust/vodafone/gb/xml/voicemail-conf.xml and after a bit of googling found /cust is mounted read-only, so I remounted /cust rw like this (I used adb shell but I guess could be done with terminal emulator): mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p18 /cust and then I used adb pull/push to grab the file, edit it and replace it (I guess you could use terminal emulator to use cat to copy it to sdcard, edit it and cat it back or root explorer to copy/edit/paste it but adb was much easier for me) Hope this helps...

Guest Smiff2 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) there is no easier way to do this (than that ADB stuff)? ridiculous i was going to say can we modify the original rom zip then flash it, but can't find those files in the zip?

Guest Smiff2 Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) does someone mind explaining for me whose never used ADB, how to do that please? how to remount normally afterwards, or do we just just reboot? i've installed adb, figured out how to connect etc. http://linuxo.com/content/install-adb-and-fastboot-android-tools-ubuntu-ppa now i get $ mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p18 /cust mount: Operation not permitted any advice please? if i figure this out i'll write it up for others.. update: ok got it: adb shell su mount (command above) i then used ES file explorer on phone to change permissions on the file and edit file on the phone 'cos i couldnt figure out how to adb push (probably just the file permissions). in my case i edited the Tesco number from 905 to 443. whole thing is retarded anyway because we should be able to choose operator or add gg to this list? anyway the word tesco doesnt appear anywhere afaik so its satisfactory. is there any reason why /cust should not be left mounted rw ?

Guest wiiman2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I'm using a unlocked Vodafone UK version of the phone running on O2. It is also rooted and has a full version of ROM Toolbox installed and ES File Explorer. I edited the file on the phone (starting at the root) /cust/vodafone/gb/xml/voicemail-conf.xml and changed the Tesco number from 905 to 901, rebooted and it works without fault. I didn't have to mess about coping files here to there or changing permissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Projjer Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 (edited) Thanks wiiman2012 !! Your method worked a treat for me here in Spain. I am on O2 (not the Tesco VMO) but it still worked OK Looking through the XML file the only O2 is the German one. Cheers Edited October 22, 2012 by Projjer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
