How to get ring tones from Nokia N9
 

Hi
no way I could copy those ring tones from user/share/ringtones.

I did get them, copy them, but can't paste them anywhere, because I don't have any permissions.
Has anyone being able to get around this issue

Huh? I do not understand what you are talking about, are you using some file manager application or what...?
Where do you exactly want to copy the files to? To an external computer or to some directory on the device?
If the latter, try to copy them to /home/user for example, that should require no special permissions.

just paste in /home/user/MyDocs

Yes it is with Filebox. There is no way to use a password there. With the Terminal application, it does not use the same language as Unix or Linux. The commands are different, and I cannot find the proper trail to get to the files, then copy them to the proper directory.

If I understand you're not able to copy system files?

To copy system files use Filebox-root from N9QuickTweak.

N9QuickTweak, tweak H:

H. ROOT access anywhere – activate SSH access for ROOT & USER users. This have auto-restart SSH (Thanks to F2thaK
& Almehdin’s script). You also have option to applying (or removing) ROOT access to FileBox & FileCase app (thanks
to CODeRUS & Fenol). And also you can change ROOT & USER passwords. Added HTTP share – you can share your
system files. You can share or User or Root files. After pressing on the icon, in any web browser, go to the IP address
of your phone and you will see your files. For checking your IP address, open terminal and write: /sbin/ifconfig
(thanks to ladoga).
Root access to text Editors – You can add ROOT access to 3 text editors: KhtSimpleText, Redak and TxPad.
WARNING: Be careful, editing system files can kill your phone !

Is that path valid? It does not exist on my device.

This thread says no. It also says what the correct path is. The OP should have done his homework better.

I could not download N9QuickTweak. I then seen others having the same propblem

You did not follow my post just above yours, did you?

Connect to a PC as Mass Storage, voilá, 42 files. Mostly MP3, some WAV.
