Reboots when trying to write to system!!!
 
I noticed a couple days ago that for some reason I wasn't able to write files to the system anymore. I tried using Root Explorer to copy some ringtones from the sdcard to the system, which I've done plenty of times, when I hit the mount r/w button, the phone reboots. So I figured I'd try to reflash (I needed to update anyways) So I backed everything up with Titanium Backup, reflashed, and nothing. Still rebooting in Root Explorer, but what's even worse now is Titanium Backup can't write to the system either. When I try to restore anything, it just reboots. I have s-off and typing "su" in Android Terminal changes $ to #. I hope someone can help, I really need my stuff restored.

Nevermind, found the problem. Redownloaded busybox in Titanium Backup. Didn't think that would have had anything to do with root explorer, but it fixed that too.

You do if you want your phone to use those ringtones when your sd card is mounted like when your connected to a computer.

Exactly what cruise350 said... And the music player was adding them into my music when they were on the sdcard.

Yeah, the only thing that sucks is I guess Titanium backup couldn't even copy data from the system at that time either. I backed everything up right before I flashed yesterday, and it said the process was complete, so I didn't double check. But when I restored everything, all the files were from 10/21, the last time I backed up before the problem. Lost all my progress in Crush The Castle and I was kicking ass too. LOL. And all my new text messages, which really gets under my skin for some reason.
