To a FOLDER? Or to a FILE?

The complete directory should be

There shouldnt be a shortwrite, because its copy pasted from mine which gives me this

Let me upload one that should have 0% chance of fail. Ill pm you

Id b willing to give JB a shot if you come up with a nice script:) even though CM9 us now running excellent!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
Honestly the battery seems stable. But getting here was a big drain and I haven't tested a cycle yet.

Smooth as a baby's buttered bottom though... zippy too. But I can't even break 3k on quadrant. Not that it matters, since it is performing plenty well.

I was just helping people get set up with a sysctl.conf that's all Phak-i-fied and stuff.

did mention quite a few things in the process that you may want to commit to memory, actually... it made me wonder why I haven't mentioned the infinite advantages of terminal emulator a long time ago..

If you just learn some basic commands you can get a lot done in one session lol.

That last config post (the .tar) is pretty solid. I like it a lot . In fact, I just JellBeaned it up. :D

I tried flashing the minixd script(fixed) on CM9 but got stuck at boot up anyone tried on CM9?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
Sorry for the misunderstanding, you would want one with "universal" in the title..

https://www.dropbox.com/s/tgfqveq4qucpre7/SimplePack-universal.zip

Theres a new config that was thrown together for a specific person with a goal of trying improve his battery, Im still only a couple of hours in... So no way to know yet what will happen with a fresh cycle.

I dont think this one is universal,

It contains the extended power menu for blazer rom and I dont know what that will conflict with on others...

Its also lightly themed but there are some really nice red components (icons and stuff) that didnt register.. If anyones good with that stuff they may like to fix my fails =)

RED ...please be careful.. This framework is so full of crap that doesnt need to be there....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robertm2011:
Hey PhAkEer,

Moved it over to your thread for a question..

From what I can tell (and my knowledge is EXTREMELY limited), your scripts affect the rom only, is that right? If I were to change kernels, your scripts would still be effective, right?

Cheers.:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
sorry the late response... I finally got to sleep...

You are right and wrong.

It is the kernel that is affected, but since it is via script in init.d the changes are temporary (last until next boot) and so long as the script is in tact and kernel supports init.d, will carry over without issue.

That being said... many Roms have init.d scripts included, if you change Roms but wanted to keep a script I'd reccomend storing a copy in one of the safest places I know ...

/preload.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
Anybody dissatisfied?

I ask because I'm soon going to post a slightly more battery oriented configuration and was wondering of anyone had any

practical

suggestions or requests.

Before these get asked I'll mention a couple of things.. to avoid redundancy

I plan to make it as universal as I can

It will be flashable.

Any problems with particular Roms will be clearly posted IF I KNOW (that's your part)

I'm not including the transition animations, but will provide links to 3 or 4 flashable packs that only install them..

And... yeah... let there be light... and stuff.

Edit: Also, it came to my attention that I may have accidentally included some bad ass live wallpapers I forgot in a couple of zips...

never heard anyone say anything but they are cool, so if you had any of my pkgs make sure you check to see if you have some live wallpapers you hadn't seen before.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
I need a favor!

Ok, so this is imho the best configuration yet. By far...

The down load for the simple universal flash will be ready momentarily.

What am I asking for?

I need one or two brave testers.

I am throwing together a version that has the most recent Placebo along with some useful apps, two fonts packs, 2 live wallpapers you dont have, theme related materials (black&whiteEVERYTHING), and some stuff that Ive wanted to share but havent been successful making it flashable in the past....

specifically lib files from my own system.

Only some but they are improvementz to graphics mostly.

Please, if you have an interest let me know ASAP because I spent most of the day on this and I want to know if I should just give up....

Edit: Fine, Ill be the one, again...

I was thinking that maybe this thread.... You know what, forget about it.

Im just gonna stay positive and hope it goes smoothly so I wont have to have nobody that can help me fix it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
I really hope that this thread isnt dead and that people are just asleep or something...

So, on testing this nothing broke... Though some things didnt install and the theme barely took... Its still awesome.

But for me it was is in large part replacing files not adding them.

So the easily frightened beware, this is not fully tested.

Heres another link to the pharmacy

This time you want

Manson's Koolaid

THANK YOU, FREECHARLESMANSON

I dont know how much of the theming will stick to be homest... But overall it should just as if not more compatible with CM9 TW.

Im confused about that post though, Manson's KoolAid was what I wanted somebody to test. So thank you =)

Or amm I missing something (as I usually am!)?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robertm2011:
Hi, if this is truly universal, I'll try it on Blazer ICS (I can just flash it over this over the older scripts?). Thanks, man.

BTW, the reason it's so dead around here is that source just dropped...

Did you flash the backup that it generated?

Hey, im back, i flashed dietpillr1 to try and help my battery drain issues, but now i don't think it was related to not having an optimization script installed. i checked usage in GSam, and it says kernel is taking up 58.5% of my battery usage and maps is the number one app in the usage list with 516 wake locks and 227 times waking the device, and a lot of wifi use. Since i booted and unplugged, i never manually opened maps once, so I'm a little confused by this. I've been at home on wifi the entire time i have been in this charge cycle, so does anyone have any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackcanopy:
I have always frozen/uninstalled maps using titanium backup as part of my ritual after a new ROM flash for that very reason.. if frozen, it can be un-frozen when needed for navigation, map viewing etc...

Something else to check is any apps that are checking location. Allot of apps have this enabled by default.. disabling location will help your battery allot.

EDIT: don't be too alarmed about the kernel using 58.5%, it takes 100% after totaling known apps and pins the balance to the kernel.

And just so it is clearly noted...

.

su
sysctl -p

.

Is the standard linux command to read sysctl.conf and commit the settings(values) to memory.

It looks in /etc unless specified otherwise in thd command

Eg

su
sysctl -p /whichpath/myfolder/mysysctl.settings

The syscall array is what is being used. I am barely just starting to understand, even though I've been using it for months ..

I thought it had set commands to manipulate....

It turns out it is an array that blankets sysfs looking for matching dirs and common values...

IE WOW... what power.....

Holy Crap. This thread gets more and more confusing as the days go on. I never know which script to try. I don't even know if you can just flash through CWM again and call it good. It looks like you all are running shell commands to set permissions and such- ugh, this is crazy. I am still back on FGXII and been running great. I really want to try some others, but I am way too lost now. Are the ones on the OP current? Can I just flash through cwm like I did with FGXII?

PhAkEer, no offense because you are doing some flipp'n awesome work here- you just need to setup that first post for noobs like myself :D I never know what to try... maybe break it down like...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
No offense taken. That is my weakest link.. here and in RL.

This thread is as scatter brained as myself... I swear I was trying to keep it organized... but between work and the woman and never putting my phone down... lmao who has the time!

The most current didn't make it to a flashable zip yet. but at least one is in the op.

The .tar with JB in the name isn't so much a JB specific sysctl.conf as it is a NOT ICS ONLY .

Make sense?

And I've decided to keep it like this for a while.

One - "/etc/init.d/Placebo" script. (0755)

One - "/etc/sysctl.conf" (0644)

A couple xbin tools (0755)

That's it.

No mo "it didn't work after flashing" :|

I CAN however tell you all how you can help me back....

Any flashable that I have made.... any of them... you can use to repack any tweaks/ROMS/themes.... anything.

Unzip (randomPlacebo).zip

go to XTRAS/system/etc

Replace the sysctl.conf with the one you want

Then go into XTRAS/system/etc/init.d

remove everything and replace it with your new TRIGGER.

Go to folder root. (Where you see "XTRAS, tools, mod.config...etc )

Select all,

Zip.

Done. It will automatically manifest, updater-script,update-binary... everything you need.

The only thing you need to do is put what you want into the XTRAS folder in it's respective path...

This is a very powerful tool.

If you ever decide to take it into themeing... simply add a folder named

"MORPH"

... I will wait until you guys get more familiar with XTRAS beforoe I datadrop anything else :P

I mean it though. You can use XTRAS to make flashable app packs or whatever.. a fresh build prop.. a blank page named Placebo (to flash if Placebo breaks init)

Lol I'm going to regret this next line

Any questions??

(Been waiting for this thousandth post :p )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
I am soooo laughing ( not at the person, rather the irony)

I just analyzed 23 init scripts that somebody is running with placebo ..

They, ftmp, do nothing that placebo didn't do.

So the only one titled "Placebo"...

Was the only one that wasn't .....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackcanopy:
Are you referring to all of us in here supporting this thread? Or An individual running multiple redundant init scripts plus one from this thread? Or is there a ROM built with said scenario?

Yeah so I'm definitely interested in trying this after hearing about it on the CM10 thread, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to install it. I've searched the thread, and the CM10 thread, and haven't really found a clear answer. Even tried flashing the pi.zip on the main page, but to no avail. Do I need a specific kernel, or what?

Hmmm...

Seems to a common thing for me to read. Im sorry its not more organized, I swear though the info must be all over..

You probably want the CmX build.

Got a pen?

Using root browser of choice, (root exploer, zipper, root browser..script manager..etc)

Extract "system" from the zip or tar.

Place all files, exactly how they are in that folder, into /system.

Set permissions.

If a file is in "/etc/init.d" then permissions are 755, ( or rwxr_xr_x ), or from terminal emulator

su

chmod 0755 /etc/init.d/*

same thing...

If the file goes in "/etc" then it should be 644, or ( rw_r__r__ ), or from terminal emulator

su

chmod 0644 /etc/sysctl.conf

same thing.

Hope that helped.

Good morning. Just trying to help a little PH.

I noticed the LOG folder in /system/etc isn't being created because it is empty in the flash file. If you put a placeholder file within the folder (just a little temp file), it will get created during the flash process.

However, it still doesn't write the temp file or any log files to the log folder so I'm not sure what's up with that.

If you figure it out, it would be pretty cool is if you put an example file there so that we could see what a working script log is supposed to look like. ;)
