I think I was going for 'toke smoke til you choke' or something like that.

Smoking is legal here now and it's really kind of an odd thing to think about.

Hey, BC, you ready for a throwback?

I dont like the whole "did it work?" game so Ive decided to reinstate the build.prop modversion :) (plus the uft is like magic when you have install problems) lol

Alright, theres no way that I've failed something so simple so many times. The issue must be on my end..

Can somebody verify for me??

If this flash works right then it is dubbed "Placebo 3.0"

It is similar to Hexen in that it is one script with 6 governors, but Ive simplified the platform, added killer screenstate (literally issues the command to "kill-all" background processes when the screen is off lol)

and the calling scripts are extremely simplified.

No script shuffling.

When you type a governor name into terminal emulator it issues a command that edits the Placebo script in place, changing the string "Placebo=" to the new governor.

The screenstate was giving me boot issues so Ive moved it to xbin.

The main script activates it and the end to avoid the issue, and then the screenstate script should continue to run, changing the governor between "Powersave" and whatever you last had set.

Placebo(Hopefully 3.0)

I think the same thing but with a long click (power menu) would work perfectly since you don't usually access it often to screw up the governors. What do you think?

You can try what I had to do.

It wouldn't install for me either unless I manually mounted scard and system in the advanced menu of recovery.

Xda website no longer let's me upload files ... the link to "choose file" simply does nothing... and dropbox superheats my phone and takes a lifetime to upload 300kb so imagine what this 2.* mb upload was like..

Pretty sure my phone's gone from hacked to hard-bricked...

All I was doing was listing directories to text files to call on them easier... I ran

ls `find -iname queue'|while read i;do

echo $i > /settings.txt

cat $i >> /settings.txt

done

I don't understand how that could make my phone go slow as molasses for a few seconds and then make a godawful sound

at the same time that it listed a couple directories that shouldn't exist...

but sure enough... I think I need a JT unless I get reaaaaalllly lucky and cycling the power gets me into odin...

Anybody have any suggestions?

Considering this one was just replaced by Asurion a month ago and a Sprint store has already worked on it I'm pretty sure I could get it replaced if it comes down to it.. but I'd be willing to try any Sameopathic remedies if anyone's willing to share...

I thought I was bricked a couple times so I took the back cover off, took a pin and stuck it in the little hole next to the camera lens while holding the power button for about 15 seconds. I did that while the battery was in and also took the battery out and repeated.... it got me out of that jamb a couple times... (The "blue light special" brick)

Thanks, guys.

I'll be sure to look into both as soon as I have time.

I finally decided to quit being lazy and got a ****ty (or awesome...if you have my low standards) computer and real internet (20mbps max... meh) so I should actually start putting things up more often.

So.. I'm sure I'll come across a few different solutions to the 64 bit when I start to search... are there preferred methods? I already downloaded the community kernel (laf, before even finishing the config. of the modem I was DLing kernel source) and intend to take up Garwynn on his call for a little involvement from the rest of us. No offense to our friendly neighborhood kernel devs (who did/do a great job) but a little diversity sounds really good to me.

The settings menu makes it appear to be easy to boot into another image.. but I really feel like Microsoft didn't all of a sudden decide to start playing nice with the rest of the world.

Lmao, can you imagine? Me? With....syntax highlighting! I may just put out a zip or two that are already edited!

(and to answer, technically those earlier posts were more along the lines 2.9.w/e )

I don't like versioning things because I am bad at remembering details. lol

I'll start cleaning up this thread right now.

Edit: You used this same trick on an E4GT? Where is the hole? (Trust.. a guy does not WANT to ask that question..)

I'll find my camera and post a picture if I can't find it, but mine doesn't look like the picture in the E4G thread.

Yeah, would've followed through with it too if not for life's little detours.

I actually don't really care what I learn, so long as I keep learning. I have a subtle feeling that my personality is compatible with developing...I just need to buckle myself down and take some aderol (sp?) and I'll be all set. Most source just puts me to sleep.. the testing-to-being bored ratio is out of whack.

Edit: Looks like a no go on the hole, but I'll try again with a battery that has some more juice.

Hopefully Sprint decides to be helpful for once.. or maybe Samsung.

Ive also been fiddling around with some random code seeing what shakes loose..

Ever flash a rom and realize you dont have busybox symlinks?

Check it.

( assuming /system/xbin/busybox exists )

su

busybox mount -o remount,rw /system /system

busybox --list > /data/local/bb.txt

busybox sed -i 's@^.*$@busybox cp -s "busybox" /system/xbin/&@g' /data/local/bb.txt

sh `ls /data/local/bb.txt`

Symlinks any busybox to its full ability. Lmao this is so much better than a flash or than typing 217 lines.

Well, as usual, before I can even start editing anything I remembered that I had a decent idea the other day that I need to incorporate...

What do you guys think ?

\( Transform "/cache" into a tweakfs: symlink the file "scaling_governor" to "/cache/governor" and the folder "CURRENT_GOVERNOR" to "/cache/CURRENT_GOVERNOR". )\
\( You guessed it... " $ echo ondemand > /cache/governor " to set governor and once all governor folders are symlinked the same will be true of " $ echo "20000" > /cache/ondemand/sampling_rate " etc.. )\

su
mkdir /cache/.tweak
find -iname scaling_governor|while read i;do
echo ondemand > $i|cat $i|while read j;do
cp -ps $i /cache/governor
cp -psR `find -iname $j` /cache/
done
done

Edit: Actually, why not strip all confusion and just have it be .governor, or .ondmand? What could be easier than

$ echo ondemand > /.governor; ?

Hey Phak,

I was reading through your Clutch script and since I can't get anything to work from the directions in your OP (when I type in those commands to terminal nothing happens and yes, using shell as root) I wanted to know what you think Or if it's even possible since I'm still a rookie with shell commands but in:

You can always edit whatever I post.

I just woke up so bear with me, but does that "if" not have an "else" attached? If it does, you could simply add whatever changes you needed after "else" but before "fi".

1st) Here is what your script has:

2nd) I meant would it work, should have worded it differently.

Oh well.

I should be able to post it tomorrow.

It's busybox-1.21.0... and I may have went a little overboard on the options.

and if anyone is considering kernel devving Id recommend practicing on busybox: the process is the same but there is a LOT less busybox!! Not to mention its optimizing codes are inpressive..matter o fact some of it looks really familiar ;)

Yeah, but the whole point is learning how to do it on my own so I can put out a kernel or something ;)

maybe you know where I messed up.. I compiled it a few times now and it's not executable.

It tells me to access the root binary with the busybox to ensure all of the applets work and I failed at googling

the solution.

Also, I think I have that tweak from the other day all fixed up but it's pretty hard to test it without busybox. lmao
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
Sorry, didn't see the last question.

To list your available commands do

busybox --list

for commands not associated with your busybox do

ls /system/bin

or if you are lazy like me do both with

busybox --list-full|ls /system/bin

No trickle down, that's fine. Just remember to compile for the right architecture then your magic errors will go away. Also known as cross compiling. I don't think there is anything for eabi on windows, so you may need to use linux exclusively to compile.
