yes i just found it by someone saying that they should try another kernal and if it didnt work to try another rom
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyne2199:
Yes, ROM first, then kernel. Just be aware that certain ROM/kernel combos will work better than others. The ROM is like a brand new car, whereas the kernel is like the add-ons and accessories that add customization.

[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
Hey guys,

I had a nasty issue with Bi-Winning a couple weeks ago where I pushed custom framework and totally forgot about permissions. Apparently when you don't set the proper permissions it can really slow things down.

So I figured this could easily be avoided. So because of that and our CWM "Fix Permissions" option doesn't really do anything, I wrote this script to fix it!

Upon every boot, it will scan /system/app, /system/framework/, and /data/app and set the proper permissions for all the files in there.

Users

note

if you're on Trigger 2.9.1+ or Bi-Winning V1+ you do NOT have to do this. It's built into your ROM already.

Flash the attached zip named "CWM_Flash_Permissions_Script.zip"

Ironically, it may not have the correct permissions after you flash it, so then do either of the following

1) Do these commands in ADB to set the correct permissions

adb shell
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
busybox chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d/*

or

2) Open up Root Explorer (or something similar)

navigate to /system/etc/init.d/

in there find the new file S30edt_perms

long press, and set the permissions

make it look like this

x x x
x x x
x x x

Here's the init.d script, it's really simple, but also effective :)

#!/system/bin/sh
# Permission script
# Written by Einherjar Dev Team
# www.edtdev.com

logFile=/data/edt/logs/S30edt_perms.log
if [ -f $logFile ]; then
rm $logFile
fi
touch $logFile

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
echo "Setting permissions" >> $logFile
for file in /system/app/* /system/framework/* /data/app/*; do
echo " setting permissions (644) for $file" >> $logFile
chmod 644 $file
done

echo "chmodding init.d folder"
chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d

for file in /system/etc/init.d/*; do
echo " setting permissions (777) for $file" >> $logFile
chmod 777 $file
done
echo "Permissions set" >> $logFile

Very cool, thanks roman.

Very cool to post the code too... lets us linux newbs get our learn on!

[Vibrant Android Development] Poser:
[slight OT] Just getting wifi working on an old ideapad y510 in slackware was an epic struggle... (wicd my arse)

[back on topic] I wish more devs would post script contents (though we can easily download and look in vi or notepad)... it helps the learning curve immensely :D

grateful for all the work EDT and rest of dev community does. We all are.

Question: What does the fix permissions CWM do then?
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
I have no clue, lol. Never bothered looking at it

edit: I

hate

vi.
[Vibrant Android Development] |Melvin|:
roman im gonna add S30edt_perms.zip to my rom ..ill add you to credits
[Vibrant Android Development] Poser:
lol.

Vi is about as stripped down as you can get when it comes to text based editors... (I know its blasphemous... but I dig notepad++, shhh... dont tell)
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
I get "Bad Mode"
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
Hmm, ok you might need super user permissions do this and let me knkow if it works:

1) type in "adb shell"

2) type in su (don't press enter yet)

3) turn your screen on & unlock it

4) press enter on the su prompt, then his yes on the screen

then try that chmod command again.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
Gave permission, still "Bad Mode"
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
bad mode in the command line? gotta give me something more here

if it' s when you run chmod +x try this one:

busybox chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d/*
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
When I do that, I get

chmod: /system/etc/init.d/S01edt_systcl: Read-only file system

chmod: /system/etc/init.d/S20edt_gps: Read-only file system

chmod: /system/etc/init.d/S30edt_perms: Read-only file system

chmod: /system/etc/init.d/S50edt_zipalign: Read-only file system

chmod: /system/etc/init.d/S98edt_tweaks: Read-only file system

chmod: /system/etc/init.d/S99edt_complete: Read-only file system
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
Oh crap, thanks for pointing that out man. Easy fix

do this

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
busybox chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d/*

should work like a charm

by the way, next time you flash a newer edt rom, they already have this fix built in. since you overwrote the file, you'll need to run the above commands to set the correct permissions as they get messed up sometimes when modifying them.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
That did the trick, thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] MikeyMike01:
The script in the .zip says

# Permission script
# Written by Roman (birgertime)
# www.edtdev.com

logFile=/data/edt/logs/S30edt_perms.log
if [ -f $logFile ]; then
rm $logFile
fi
touch $logFile

echo "Setting permissions" >> $logFile
for file in /system/app/* /system/framework/* /data/app/*; do
echo "setting permissions for $file" >> $logFile
chmod 0644 $file
done
echo "Permissions set" >> $logFile

Which is different than the OP. I'm confused.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
I notice that before... but got side tracked and forgot to mention something... I just pulled the one from in Bi-Winning V2 and have been ADB Push'ing that.

EDIT: Also noticed that the one that's in Dan_Brutal "Metrik Part 1- Pepperkake" is the wrong one.
[Vibrant Android Development] haysnamrip:
Does this works on hd2 android? i really need this..
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:

[Vibrant Android Development] MadJoe:
Hey Roman, thanks for yet another improvement for this phone!

Simple question: can I just download and push the S30edt_perms.zip to etc/int.d? And is this any good for CM7 based ROMs? I just checked and that file isn't in my init.d folder on Trigger Redux.

Thanks!

Sent from my rough sketch of a Vibrant on a brick.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Don't push the S30edt_perms.zip just the file inside and sure... you could use this in Trigger Redux
[Vibrant Android Development] raafaell:
Thanks for the Script Roman, it really helps.. I know it's a bit of an old thread, but would this work with any Android ROM?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] engr_exxi:
The script works great. Now I wont have to boot to recovery again to fix permissions every reboot.

Mind if I used the script on my p698 ROM.

[Focus General] djc:
I have a hd2/hd7 & decided to get a Samsung focus. I just read of pocketnow.com that Microsoft is saying all the people that did nodo un official will be stuck not able to update passed nodo. My question is can I unlock my focus & wait for the official at&t update without worrying about messing my phone up for updates?
[Focus General] Freddy2Fred:
it worked fine for me.
[Focus General] djc:
@Freddy2Fred what do you mean? My concern is if I unlock my focus when I get it & also install the re-unlock so when I update to nodo will it effect my future updates?

This is what the article says on pocketnow......

"Monday the ChevronWP7.Updater brought the ability to update Windows Phones to the latest build for all those who lost their patience in waiting for the update notification.

A lot has happened since then: the blog post of Chris Walsh no longer has a valid link to the ChevronWP7.Updater -- as in it was pulled! You might have a déjà-vu as the ChevronWP7 unlocker used to jailbreak smartphones was also pulled as the team was in talks with Redmond.

Apparently, Microsoft warns users related to the usage of the ChevronWP7.Updater as it allegedly will put an end to the smartphone's ability in receiving future updates. According to Redmond, re-flashing the device with an original stock ROM would be the only solution to revert from the situation created.

Since Windows Phone 7 stock ROMs aren't available officially the way we got used to them being on manufacturer's websites back in the days of Windows Mobile, you can either stick with NoDO forever or send it back to the factory? What do you think about such an alleged stance?"
[Focus General] Seed 2.0:
Relax... The report doesn't say for sure. It states Microsoft hasn't tested the Chevron Updater and warns its a possibility. HTC phones that used the Chevron Updater reported receiving additional updates almost immediately through Zune for HTC firmware. Regardless, I'm sure the coders like Chevron team and XDA members will provide updates for our current hardware long after Microsoft and the Carriers stopped in order for us to buy new hardware... :D
[Focus General] nathantw:
There's an AT&T update? I haven't seen one thing from them and at this point I'd be surprised if I ever do so I wouldn't be too worried.
[Focus General] JamesAllen:
Relax

If you read the article you will see that "might" is used three times in the second paragraph of the quote and "possible" used in the third paragraph. As it was being published, many users who had updated through the updater were receiving Zune update notices and re-updating with no problems.
[Focus General] djc:
Thanks for the answers everyone. The only thing I want to do is unlock it, apply the un-relock so I can sideload when needed & have my custom ringtone/sms. I will still wait for the official update still because of this article so I don't have to update then re-update in a months time.

"Now that the ChevronWP7 Updater tool is out, letting you force NoDo onto the Windows Phone 7 handset of your choice, there's nothing else we're still waiting around for, right? Well, not quite. While this shortcut may get you copy-and-paste, there are still non-NoDo related updates coming down the pipeline. Chris Walsh, ChevronWP7 team member and creator of that update tool, has tweeted word that there's a Samsung Focus-specific update in the works, including some bug fixes.

Walsh implies that they'll be several bugs targeted, but the only one he singles out deals with Bluetooth support. We've seen reports of users running into garbled sound and volume swings with devices connected to the Focus, so this may be the fix Walsh mentions."

With this update supposed to land "really really soon", it's likely that AT&T could push it out at the same time it gets around to releasing NoDo for its users who have decided to wait for an official channel, almost certainly later this month. If you have a Focus and have been considering the universal update hack, you may want to hold off, as you're just going to have to revert it in order to install this bugfix update.
[Focus General] nathantw:
You know what this shows? It shows that if AT&T weren't sitting on their hands keeping silent then people wouldn't get so antsy to get the update. If they came out and said "we're testing it and you'll receive it within <blah-blah> amount of time," which wasn't the case, then people wouldn't have had to resort to finding ways of getting the update. As it stands, there may never be a day this year or any year that we'll see an update from AT&T.

There may be bug fixes being made by MS, but will AT&T release it? Not over their dead, greedy hands. They'd rather you buy a new phone than run the risk of having their support people actually do their jobs.
[Focus General] djc:
I really hope this stuff gets organized soon to where we get straight updates from Microsoft for each phone itself. Do yall think the focus will be the only one that will have expandable memory? That seems to been a worse idea lol I'm going to keep my focus with the memory it comes with. I really want to stick with wp7 but I hope its not a slap in the face lol
[Focus General] JamesAllen:
Revert????

There is no evidence anywhere that you will have to revert anything. Reading other threads and blogs, users in other countries are getting their full updates, including firmware fixes, after using the Chevron Updater to install the update. The new update installs just fine over the hacked update. Others are reporting getting just a firmware update. We really need to see how this plays out but no one knows what will happen and people who are receiving updates after using the hack are reporting positive results. It's amazing that they get the official update and can install it even though their phone is reporting 7390.

[Legend General] aikon96:
Hey there, just have a f**** problem.

Yeah, I know it s my fault etc...

BTW: My HTC Legend is SOFF, and I have a nandroid backup.

My HTC Legend worked finde some hours ago.

Tried the newest CM nightlies etc...

Then, I installed the new Clockworkmod v.3.0.2.4 and wanted to wipe all back:

So I went into the CWM-menu and agreed the following steps:

- format /misc <-- NEVER DO THIS!!!!!

- format /boot

- format /system

- format / cache

- format /data

then I wanted to flash the new rom (install zip from SDCARD), but suddenly i got an error:

"Error mounting SD-Card".

I thought it is a bug from the new CWM, so i flashed the old CWM 2.5.0.1 back and tried again. But i got shooked:

The same error appeared!

Ok, then I tried another SD Card, nothing changed. All SD Cards work perfect on PC and have no errors...

So I think the issue comes from formating any partition...

So i flashed boot, system back via "ADB", because I cannot use SD Card anymore on my phone...

By trying to get the data partition back on the phone, I get the error: "partition does not exist"

Got it now with a very old nandroid to get bootet, but there is still no data-partition and i cannot get the SD card????

So I hope anybody out there could help me to save my Legend....

EDIT: I got it!

In fastboot i had to use ADB Command:

and do the unrick tutorial from modaco ^^

Can be closed!

Hi,

This is my first time experimenting with flashing custom roms. I was trying to flash a custom rom onto my perfectly working newly rooted sgs (using odin), but the first rom i tried has gotten my phone to boot loop and now I don't know what to do with it. I can get to the download screen just fine and recovery mode but don't knwo what to do. Please help, I really can't afford a new phone/ don't know if samsung will let me replace it now.

Oh, the rom was the XXJVK Gingerbread which is near the top of the forums right now, if that helps at all.

I really just need my phone to be usable, I didn't expect to mess it up. Thanks again to anyone with information.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warfanax:
I assume you were running jl2. The problem might be because of bootloader issue.

When you were flashing gingerbread did you use pit file and repartition?

I am not a pro but If you download JL2 and flash it, should be good to go. Try not to repartition and flash without using pit file.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spectrum1012:
I did use the .pit and repartition. I'm guessing this was a no no? I'll look for jl2 and try flashing that. Might you direct me to the right download?

http://www.multiupload.com/6GRS1OWRJW

I have no idea if it will work or not. Same thing happened to me also when I was trying to flash darkys rom and I was able to open the phone after I flashed with bells original rom. Give it a try. If its a boot loop I assume its a firmware problem. You should be able to fix it. The problem might be the repartirion and pit file. I am not sure about it. Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hansonator:
Just try flashing again with boot loader update ticked in odin. I'm pretty sure that repartition and pit do nothing to the bootloader. If that doesn't work I'll add more after I shower, I stink!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mothatt:
A bootloop = ****ed framework and/or /system/ (rom)

Flashing bootloaders will not fix the problem, they are not related at all. And if a bootloader flash fails your phone will actually be bricked.

Just flash a stock rom with odin. I recommend jl2 if you want to go official stock, js8 for fastest froyo stock or jvk for the latest leaked beta. Tick update bootloaders for jvk or jl2 flash because jvk requires jvk bootloaders and jl2 because it supposedly fixes corruption problems. Remember bootloaders are overwritten every time you flash them and us risky.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spectrum1012:
Thanks a million guys, I did flash the stock jl2 (no .pit or partition, nor bootloader update) and the phone booted. It fed me a gajillion force closes, but i managed to connect to kies and updated it that way, so now I have a perfetly working phone again. I'll probably experiment with a few more things now that I know how to fix this.

Again, Thanks guys!

I love the Simply Galaxy rom along with the 2.2.1 Overstock kernel. I've tried alot of the 2.2.1 roms and to me its the best. My question is when I'm clocked at 1.0ghz in Set CPU it runs very fast with good battery life. When I oc to 1.2 ghz its also really fast and battery life is good too. What's the difference between them cause I really can't tell a single difference? I do speed tests and there about the same too. Now doing a quadrant score of course the 1.2 is higher than 1.0. That makes sense though. Can anyone really fill me in, sorry if it seems like a dumb question bit I have been doing some tests over the past week and can't really tell a difference. Thanks

there have been pletny of GPS threads, obviously. but im wondering what you guys did to fix yout GPS on cm7? my gps worked in the past, but recently when i flashed RC4, the GPS stopped working. and i flashed the latest nightly and it is not working as well. i just baffles me because it worked in earlier builds, and you would figure it would work in more stable builds.

so.

what have you guys done to fix your GPS/what nightly are you on?

First things first: No indicator on notification bar when starting GPS traffic assist application?

Then you are living under a rock or having bad reception. Go outside. Using some kind of widget which uses GPS also and has a on/off switch in it? Try switching off and reboot. It simply should work with the latest nightlies. Try reflashing and fix permissions. Do not wipe your entire phone before flashing.
