There are some instructions here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/380258/how-to-change-the-ubuntu-installation-to-read-write-mode-on-a-mobile-device/380259#380259 1. Ensure your device is connected to the host computer via USB, Developer Mode is enabled and the screen is unlocked. 2. Start a terminal on your host computer with (Ctrl+Alt+t) and run the following command: |phablet-config writable-image | > Questions: > 1) what adverse effects will I experience? When an OTA arrives it's quite possible that it could badly interact with changes you've made. You would then have to reflash the device. > 2) how would I go back to Read Only? Reflash the device (losing all data on the phone). > 3) when going back to Read Only, would I lose my changes? Yes. > 4) would I recieve OTA updates while in Read Write? Yes. > 5) if I would still receive OTAs, would they overwrite my changes? Yes. I considered doing this and then decided it was too inconvenient. I had some questions but they haven't yet been answered: http://askubuntu.com/questions/634537/what-are-the-tradeoffs-of-read-write-mode-on-ubuntu-touch
