[FIX] Internal Memory Read-Only Issue for Apps

[Jeffbucc]

If your apps can't write files to your internal memory, or having problems saving images from IMGR/Chrome, this fix is for you.

I'm not sure how many had this issue after rooting their phones but it had been driving me crazy since I rooted my phone. I tried editing my build.prop securestorage=false, with no positive results.

I then came across a fix someone had for their Note 3, using terminal to fix this error, without having to reflash your rom.

Notes-

1. Read all the steps before attempting this
2. I have used this method to successfully fix my sdcard and make it usable

Prerequisites-

1. You will need root
2. You will need terminal emulator on your phone
3. You will need some reading skills and glasses if your eyes are weak..

Steps-
1. Open terminal emulator
2. Type "su"
Your screen should look like this

su

Now press enter
3. Now type this command, "restorecon -v -R /data/media"
Your screen should look like this now

su
restorecon -v -R /data/media

Now press enter
It will run several lines of code as it restores your system entries
4. Reboot
5.Now you can use your internal sdcard without any issues

Didnt work for me. im using ES File Manager to edit the file but it wont let me. reboot like 3 times already.

Never mind, i think is a ES File Manager issue, i got Build.pro editor and that fixed.
