How to install Mount /system RO/RW [ROOT] APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Mount /system RO/RW [ROOT] APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.blogspot.superthomaslab.mountsystemrorw-v1.6.2-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

3 ★could one of the developers of this app contact me directly? I have an abandoned app that disables the read and write protection on any HTC One phone, it's worked for me with my m7 and my m9. This may be useful to you so if you want to contact me via hangout or something, then by all means.
4 ★Just a note..that it didn't work for rooted VM HTC Desire 626s. It's an HTC thing. We can achieve root but can't edit the system files or debloat the HTC junk out! Thanks for the tip about editing in ADB!
3 ★I tried this in the terminal-> mount -o rw,remount,rw /system But then I get the message that permission is denied. I then tried your app, it says that my system is now mounted RW, but doesn't work. That's probably because we both are doing the same thing. So how do I tackle that permission denied problem. I'm running CM13.0 by sultanxda (A0001)
5 ★After rooting my Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300, I found out that a "root file manager" was required to access the system files where bloatware apps reside. So I downloaded ES File manager, but my ROM would not allow root access. Dumped that and downloaded Root File Manager. ROM allowed root access, but this version NO LONGER INCLUDES the ability to mount this files as -RW. I could not move any files or rename them. Finally, after spending far too much exasperating time on Android forums where no one mentions the above, I found out that my Root File Manager did not have the Mount /RO /RW feature in the Root File Manager used in 2011 on the forums. There are LOTS of posting about how files cannot be managed even after the ROM permission are granted. It seems not too many people realise that this mounting process is essential since the default is read only. A kind soul on one of the forums posted about this essential app which is needed to work with the files. I downloaded it and finally, finally, finally, after hours and hours of time spent trying to get this to work, I managed to get the youtube.apk renamed and the modified youtube.apk (listen with closed screen) installed!!!
3 ★It doesn't work on my M9 rom ARHD. The system stays r/o even after mounting it in r/w via your app. I tried for a bootanimation... I had to choose an animation flashable and did it through the recovery instead :/
5 ★I updated cm12.1 and the system was read only even with root so I couldn't use lucky patcher (it places files in the system) but once I used this app it cleared the whole issue :) thanks !!
2 ★Weirdly enough though it can set the system as RO. Not as RW.
1 ★Even with root access & busybox pro installed & rebooting, sent from htc one e8
1 ★Doesn't work on the Htc M9
1 ★PLEASE MAKE THIS APP COMPATIBLE WITH MY DEVICE: COLORS-X16
