That did the trick, cheers. I had two choices in there that appeared identical (in name), so I just chose the other one.

This did it for me too. Both were named "Android correction"

I tried using method 1 on B934, but the install failed. It didn't back up my dictionary, but did delete it! Currently stuck with the Huawei dictionary!

Was your phone rooted AND was USB-debug enabled?
Repeat method 1 again. I had to do it twice, I forget why now

Yeah, tried it a few times, can't save the output from the cmd window (it closes), but it says something about "no such file or directory"...

Option 2 is easy. Used that method twice without issues.

Worked perfectly here.

OK. Checked root and get the OK.

Tried method 2 in several root explorer apps, usually get "operation failed". The smaller file copies OK, but the big one copies around 25% and I get the failed meassage. In ASTRO, I get the message "Copy Error: libcore.io.ErrnoException: open failed: EACCES (permission denied)"...

This sounds a lot like you might have some sort of problem with your SD card or permissions on your SD card. In fact, do you even have an SD card in the phone? The script relies on that to backup your old dictionary.

This isn't something I can particularly help you with! Try running 'Fix permissions' in clockwork recovery then try again, although this won't necessarily fix permissions on the SD card. As far as I'm aware, the easiest way to fix SD card permissions is to format the card and then copy all your data back. That the file manager is failing to read the files from your SD card has nothing to do with the files themselves, I shouldn't think.

Yeah, when I first installed ICS I had a weird issue with Titanium backup, it didn't see my backups until I changed the location to "sdcard2", which was a bit strange. It hasn't really affected anything else and I haven't noticed any issues since. After your suggestion twigged this I switched the default storage location from SD Card to internal storage and back, but still no luck! Appreciate the help though.

Tried fix permissions, but still getting the same errors. Haven't done the copy/format yet. It's next on the to try list, suppose the last option is reinstalling the ROM!

Did you verified that adb was well installed and fully functional?

Can you list the contents of your /mnt/ directory? Your external SD should be mounted at /mnt/sdcard, the internal sd card at /mnt/sdcard2. Is it possible that your SD is partitioned (e.g from clockwork mod)? I think that backing up, formatting your SD and restoring the data might be your best bet.

[RannyDoscoe]

My System ROM is full! Can anybody help me find the culprit, how much free space should there be?

[PandaThing]

Have run in B936 rooted. Worked perfectly thank you.

[ElectricPics]

Just used the Win batch file to fix unrooted NZ B936. No problems at all. Thanks!

[Faelon]

Installed it using the script. Works like a charm! Thank you OP.

[b4da55]

Have used this more than once

Cheers
