Hi, i have a new Mi3 WCDMA lastest dev rom which i rooted via security/ permission/root.. But it seems it's not working prorpely..

With ES explorer when i enable root feature, it ask me for root right, (which is ok) then i go to mount and mount / and /system to RW

but now when i try to put a new font (for apple emoji) into /system/font, it tells me that it's read-only .. I tried with other app than ES explorer but same result ..

So my question is, is that normal ? How do i root it proprely ? Or at least how do i get Apple emoji ?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563757 : This method didn't work as said here..

and App from playstore like Emoji changer (root) didn't work either..

have u try wsm tool?.. i use it with theme authorisation module.. then ifont install font.. if not answering your question, im sorry.. anyone here will help u..
Actually i don't need font installer or something like that, i just want iPhone emoji in my google keyboard :) but normaly to do that you have to have root then with the app "Emoji changer" or by putting the correct file in /system/fonts, you have these emoji..

seems root working fine because i installed Adaway and it working proprely, it's just that i can't change file in /system/fonts because of read-only thing..

So my question was more about is there an other way to have iPhone Emoji or did i do something wrong with my way to do it .. :(
