For me this works fine on the emulator, but it does not work on my dev phone 1 (which I did not re-flash or anything): C:\Android\android-sdk-windows-1.0_r2\tools>adb -e shell # chmod 777 /data/misc chmod 777 /data/misc # ls -l /data/misc ls -l /data/misc drwxrwx--- bluetooth bluetooth 2008-12-06 13:34 hcid # exit exit C:\Android\android-sdk-windows-1.0_r2\tools>adb -d shell $ chmod 777 /data/misc chmod 777 /data/misc Unable to chmod /data/misc: Operation not permitted $ ls -l /data/misc ls -l /data/misc opendir failed, Permission denied $ ls data ls data opendir failed, Permission denied $ chmod 777 data chmod 777 data Unable to chmod data: Operation not permitted $ Is there another way?
