        @pelenze Yeah I would not bother with manual steps, just reinstall. All data is saved, if you do not check the wipe option. We use readonly rootfs for a reason, so that we can quickly exchange it. Also its nice to have it against any malicious attacks that otherwise could render your device unbootable

          I understand your advice to be careful but on my BQ E5 OTA-22 I notice that most of the folders in / are 755 root root. It is the same for /var/lib/lxc/android
          Why should it be different on N5?

            @pulsar33 Because we use different builders for the root files system since Halium 9 I think πŸ™‚

                There is no need to reinstall, I had restored original perms copying them from the backup files(thanks rsync).
                Only one question: on your phones this file exist?

                /android/cache/legacy_channel

                      @pelenze Please keep that, its a flag that you are on an older device that needs special treatment during upgrades. Removing this can brick your device when you are switching between channels or if we update to a newer Halium version.

                        Thanks I will not remove, but I notice after change permission the first time that the file was removed..and not by me(probably an upgrade).
                        I have restored it from backup and give it the right permissions.
