[Q] Root drive copy permissions - Serendipity 6.4

[folchibas]

I have the Captivate with AT&T. I've installed the latest drivers and have tried connecting to 2 different computers; one running XP and the other running Windows 7.

I have only had this problem since flashing Serendipity 6.4. I'm trying to upgrade to Serendipity 7, but cannot get the update file to my root drive. I've tried multiple file managers (none will move the file from the sd card folder to the root folder). I've also tried multiple browsers, but the only one that has an option to change the download folder is Opera, and that won't go to the root.

Any ideas on how to get this to my root folder, or a fix to connect to the computer??

No need to put the file on the root " / " of the drive. Placing the file anywhere in the " /sdcard " wil work just fine.

Edit: in fact you actually need to put the file somewhere on /sdcard to flash with cwm

And if you ever need to place files on the " / " root, root explorer file manager from the market will work, but you will not want to put files directly on the root of the partition that you flash with cwm.
