is there a file called otacerts.zip under /system/etc/security/? Are you able to us ADB to pull files from /system? I am waiting for my droids to arrive so I am trying to find as much info as I can before then and thank you for any info you may have!

ah, yeah. I wasn’t sure if you have access to the root account, though I guess it makes sense that you don’t ;-) Still it’s kinda bizarre that directory has permission 666…

I did not try that since the owner is root/root so I will not have permissions. It would be simple to add if I was root and then cd into the directory…I just thought it was curious to see a permission of 666…don’t see that too often.

Have you tried changing the directory permissions by adding the executable bit? If the directory is not executable for root, then yes, root will not be able to go inside it. I can see from the permissions that this is the case.
