I was able to run a console app (compiled with NDK) on a rooted Android phone, but can't run it on a non-rooted phone.

I tried:

adb push MyApp /mnt/sdcard/temp
adb shell
cd /mnt/sdcard/temp
chmod a+x MyApp

but chmod did not work and the file remained non-executable:

tulip:/mnt/sdcard/temp $ ls -l
total 33904
-rw-rw---- 1 root sdcard_rw 34713488 2023-10-05 19:49 MyApp

EDIT1

The files are uploaded as root, but the commands are executed as shell:

adb shell "id"
