Help ADB Push to /System Folder

[spielnicht]

Hope this is the right place to post this.

My Atrix is rooted stock 1.83 .

I'm trying to "adb push" some OGG files to "/system/media/audio/" to add-to and replace some of the existing system sounds, especially that bloody annoying keypress (typewriter) sound, but I'm getting the following error (which makes sense):

Read-only file system

Tried using Root Explorer, same issue...again makes sense since its mounted as Read only on boot.

I tried booting into recovery mode, but I can't access the phone via ADB at all, even with USB Debug enabled. I also tried "adb remount" command, no luck either. I get an error "operation not permitted".

So, does anyone know the correct sequence of commands I need in ADB to remount the Atrix /system folder as RW??

What I have been doing is using adb push to the /sdcard then using adb shell then su then
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/stl5 /system

Then cp /sdcard/whatever /system/media

Lets say the file you want to change is called whatever.ogg

adb push whatever.ogg /sdcard/whatever.ogg
adb shell
su
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/stl5 /system
cp /sdcard/whatever.ogg /system/media/audio/notifications

when you access root explorer, does it let you know that it has been granted supervisor privilages? Does it give you the option to change from read to write? what did you use to root? I had to run the original Aroot three times before if finally gave me root.

You're the best, worked perfectly Can't believe that hideous typewriter sound is gone, it only took me 1.5 years as an Android user to finaly say enough is enough. Whomever thought it was a good idea to mimic the sound of an 1800's typewriter on a 21st century device needs to be fired.

Thanks again.

Well congrats! that was the dumbest thing ever. NEVER attempt something like that unless you have CWM or equivalent installed, have a backup, and know what you are doing.

Have you tried to read your device's xda forum?
