On every ICS ROM I have used, the root is mounted as R/W by default and thus so are all the other partitions, is this intentional? Does not seem right to me.

A problem I have had with all ICS ROMs (mainly directed towards Devs)
- Thread starter IRASadPanda
- Start date
Hmm I never really checked, but I don't recall noticing that. After I finish this theme I'll flash back to ics and look.
Edit: Actually I'm on modded stock 2.3.3 right now and it mounts root as r/w too. So I doubt its just ics. Everything after root is r/o until mounts.

My init script mounts everything as R/W because:
1. That's my personal preference, since i build them for me first.
2. I feel that a rooted phone should have full read/write ability from the start.
Nobody has ever commented or asked me to change it in my roms, so i never did. If anyone has a problem with it, then we'll talk it over and i'll make a decision on whether or not to keep it, remove it, or give the user the option on how to mount their directories.
Just my opinion.....

Why would this be a problem? Just curious.

Not to keep it R/W, but to give apps you've given root access to to be able to access the root.
I feel that with it being R/W all the time apps I haven't given root access to could access root.
Maybe it's just my OCD tendencies but I like it to be R/O by default, guess I'll have to get over it

My biggest issues have been Mobile Data drops and the Video Camera. Mobile has been found to work flawlessly on some ICS ROMs, mostly those that stick to stock looks. I hope it gets fixed in all of them soon.
