Here is another thread I strongly recommend reading, before posting here.
It has an excellent explanation of the linux file permissions and how to make

This is a development thread whose main purpose is to catalog and document
the various partition tables used by our manufacturers in our loved Androids.
Thread Difficulty: Medium (some risk of bricking)
So far we have the following devices in our list:When people get a bad flash and soft-brick their devices, one of the first
things that need to be done, is finding out on what partition that flash went
bad. This information can be extremely valuable since it could very well make
the difference between loosing or keeping all your data.
In addition, it will help clarify much of the partitioning confusion that has
arisen because of the many different partitioning schemes used in different
devices and by different hardware manufacturers.
Thus you can help by providing your complete partition tables in this thread
in one post. In order for this information to be useful, you will have to
provide and specify the following:
Additional information that could be useful, include:Code:General Device Name: Samsung Galaxy S2 Manufacturer Product Name: GT-I9100 Processor: Exynos 4210 AOS version: Android GB 2.3.4 Radio FW version: XXKI1 System FW version: XXKE4 Service Provider/ Branding: T-mobile Country: Germany << output of parted >> << output of fdisk >> << output of gdisk >> << Any additional info you'd like to share. See text.>>
How To Post HereCode:a) The alternative commands shown in post#2 below. b) Other hardware info that can often be found in the PDA database. c) A link to a text paste site with the output from: 1. dmesg (directly after reboot) 2.
To make your post compact and stylish, post using the "Go Advanced"
and put your command output in "CODE" tags and choose: "Sizes" ==> 2.
If you know how to, also replace all tabs (\t) with spaces. If your output
is excessively large, please use paste site (pastebin, pastie etc.) instead
of multiple posts.
Also, please search the thread for previous devices before posting
your own results, unless they differ significantly.

This is a development thread. Do not ask for help with this or that,
this is not a support thread! Make sure that any question you might
have, is directly related to the benefit of this thread and on-topic.
If not your post will be removed.
==================================================
The goal here is to obtain as detailed information about your device
partitions as possible. The most important information are (with example):
As a good example of a fairly complete partition table is that of theCode:- Partition Number 2 - Partition Name mmcblk0p2 - Partition Type EXT4 - Partition MBR ID 83 - Partition GPT ID 8300 / - Partition Label SBL1 - Partition Description Secondary Bootloader 1 - Start block (hex/dec) 0x1000 - End block (hex/dec) 0x1fff - Partiton Size (hex/dec) 0x1000 - Partition Content Qualcomm SBL1 bootloader image (sbl1.img)
Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 (SCH-I535), as shown in post#3, although it is
still missing some relevant data, it was completed using the commands
shown in post#2.
Thanks in advance for wanting to help to make this thread an awesome
and great partition table reference.
