Here's an updated apk to fix the crashes I've been reported, can you please test it and tell me if it fixes your issue ?

http://d-h.st/THA

(I hadn't taken into account that the user's device might not have a /system/etc/init.d folder, or that it could be empty, so it threw a NPE in yesterday's build)

Try this standalone version of the new universal init.d tool that will be in the beta : http://d-h.st/THA

REQUEST: BACKUP MY PIMP!

If PmR really wants to be the "all-in-one ROOT tool our devices were yearning for", then the ultimative option is still missing: A way to backup all mods in one small text file - which, when flashing a new ROM, can be selected from within PmR to apply all tweaks and mods that have been set before. Is it planned?

Edit: Didn't see your newest posting. Way to ROCK! :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] truth57:
Off topic suggestion - sorry!

Looking at your dev work on this project, which is really amazing - I can't help wishing you would undertake a revamp of the Recovery tools presently available to us. Frankly, your designs make most of what I have tried up to now seem really primitive, and furthermore your attention to detail would provide the necessary security for backing up our ROMs. Please mull it over! Kudos to you for what you have achieved so far!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Andromeduh:
Works well on my phone. Tweaks made my phone snappier and faster without compromising my battery. Sadly kernel tweaks won't work because it's not supported by the kernel. Still a must for rooted devices indeed!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Yeah of course, if it's gonna work on any device it's particularly gonna work well on Sony devices^^

Unfortunately there's currently a bug with the mods in the build that's on the playstore.

You can either wait for beta to be released or go grab the flashable mod directly from Rizal Lovins in his thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35732272

First: excellent work.

Second: if already answered sorry not to have gone through the 500 pages :D

I've played with many of the tweeks, no issues noticed. Then I wanted to try the Sony xLouder mod, so I uninstalled the current one, DSP and Noozoxoide Roxie - part of another sound Mod for Galaxy Nexus. Installed then the Sony xLouder and Bravia eng from TWRP.

1. I do not see, can't access any sound effects both in Google play or appolo nor settings/audio.

2. Is there a way to check if Bravia is installed & working?

TkS for clarifying.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
What steps were involved in uninstalling your previous mod ?

There are some bugs in the mods included in the current version of PmR, I recommend you grab the Bravia & xLoud mods directly from Rizal Lovins in his thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35732272 (The Sony mods in PmR are his work)

Hi Androguide,

Did You push an update today? For some reason it's not visible yet in Finland, if You did. I wonder if my market works as it should, that is why I'm asking..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Are you talking about PmR or the init.d app ?

Cause I indeed pushed an update to the init.d app late last night (gmt+1).

It was the first time I developped, compiled and published an update right from my phone (using AIDE)^^ This feels awesome^^

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks for the compliments :)

Please be aware that the beta will be released as a separate apk (I lost my keystore and can't update the current one anymore), so you won't receive a Google Play notification.

If you want to be notified the millisecond the beta is released, you can subscribe to the newsletter on pimpmyrom.org ^^

I am using the latest busy box from https://play.google.com/store/apps/...usybox&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd which is 1.21.0

and here is a catlog
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks a lot :good:

Here's an attempt for a hotfix, can you please try it and provide feedback as to whether it solved your problem or not ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] raziel23x:
nope they would disappear then 2 servings later reappear now theydo not even do that
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
What happens if you do this in terminal ? :

su
rm -f /system/etc/init.d/08setperm [COLOR="Green"]//or any other, but I saw you tried to delete this one in the logcat[/COLOR]

Also, are you sure they are not deleted (as in you checked in a file explorer or in terminal (ls /system/etc/init.d) ? Knowing that would help me know if it's a UI bug or a root command bug.

But that's really weird, it works properly on both my s3 & n7.

Please check if you have /system/xbin/rm, if not, check in your busybox app if the rm applet is installed

EDIT : try this one, it should be good. but I'm pretty sure in the previous one the scripts actually were deleted, but they didn't disappear from your list until you restarted the app.

if it doesn't, then it's definitely a problem with your rm binary or busybox applet.

Being able to test my apps on gingerbread on an actual device would be such a relief (the RAZR had gingerbread roms if I'm not mistaken, right?)

When you do the switch, if you're still ok, I can take care of the transportation fee by sending you a paypal payment (I live in France).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] raziel23x:
the RAZR has a locked bootloader so you can't really downgrade. yea I originally had gingerbread on this until I gotten the ics ota and then the recent jellybean ota.

there might be a few gingerbread roms that you van lead with safestrap 3.11 in ROM slot1 I have not really looked mostly run stock rooted and hascodeof and dhackers 4.2.2 cm10.1

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] brando56894:
The version of Rom Toolbox that comes with this won't allow me to go into setting, it keeps FCing on me. I went into the market and uninstalled it and then reinstalled it and now it works. I must have been a different version before because the preferences icon was a gear and now it's a wrench.

I'm using TWRP 2.2.2.2

I haven't had to do that for the past three versions. When I actually tried to do it using the CM9 update-binary-installer it wouldn't even run.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 16BitRun:
The light version of 1.5.3 HDPI worked for me without the error message at the end and actually installed everything but the S-Voice, TW Launcher, it's Widgets and the CM9 themes. Finally got the Awesome Beats.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Superm@π:
Unfortunately, as I try to open the zip in recovery it stops and says "installation aborted" now. Its okay though. I'm a patient person and I appreciate you working to fix it. I will continue to try new versions until it works because I really like the concept and want this to work on my phone. Thx!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Sounds like a Status 7 error in recovery, am I right ?

if this is what you got it means corrupt download, try checking the md5 checksum. You might want to re-download it if your md5 is different from the one in the OP.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Those features (s-voice, touchwiz and themes) are removed in the light version because of their size, that's what makes it a light version ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jtrosky:
Can anyone help me determine which version should be used for the Asus TF700 (1920x1200 resolution)? There doesn't seem to be a version specific to that resolution, but the OP mentions the TF700 as being supported....

Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
That's one hell of a big res, but the xhdpi version should scale properly. Please report wether it does scale properly or not, which case I'll make a specific version or guide you to modify the right line in the right file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gummie:
This is Cool. The missing file error is fixed just Hours (atleast in my time) Now we can proceed to either Sleep (The Developer) or proceed making Un-Pimper, for the refining of the script like removing redundant tweaks... nahh You Better Just Sleep First.

Yeah, the screen on the TF700 is simply awesome - no other way to put it! :)

I will try the xhdpi version and report back. Leaving for a business trip in the morning and don't want to risk "breaking" anything before my trip, so it may be a few days though...

How to know Bravia Engine 2 and xLoud is installed or not. I could only find Pimp my beats app. I couldn't find Bravia and xLoud. Any suggestions.:confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
There is no launcher app for bravia & xLoud, you can check if they were installed by looking in /system/framework for example, you'll see several sonyericsson framework files/semc.

You can check if they are enabled in your build.prop, or simply use the toggle in PmR to turn them ON/OFF (requires a reboot between changes).

I could create launcher apps for those as this question is often asked, but it would be kinda useless as anyway the only thing you can tweak about them is to turn them on or off (Even on official Sony roms I mean).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] akshay7394:
I know it seems redundant, but that might actually be a good idea.. It'd stop useless questions like that one. Also the fact that a Pimp my Beats app pops up and the other two don't can -i suppose- be misleading. I mean I know they aren't apps, but you could move the toggle to a placeholder shortcut in the app drawer/home screen, maybe?

edit: For clarity, i don't mean a seperate app. I mean a shortcut that opens up the toggle section within PmR, if thats possible? Similar to how dropbox can have shortcuts to specific folders

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trvbone:
So what can I do with appthwack? I see a lot of stats but what do I do with the free run?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Well if you're developing an app or if someday you will (the free run has no expiration date), you can upload you apk on AppThwack and it will test it for you on 182 devices (a full run has a value of $25!) so you can fix errors before releasing if there are.

On the other hand, you allowed me to test the beta before release and make sure there is no particular issue on any device/screen size/version of android, and this is really valuable :good:

Fun Fact : somehow, I really don't get how he achieved it, but the robot managed to trigger the PmR Easter Egg on one device^^
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trvbone:
Damn $25 per test ouch, I got super excited because I thought I was gonna get the apk in the process Lol
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
^^Sorry if it seemed that way in the message^^

Well yeah 25 bucks is a bit expensive, but this is really a one of a kind service and I'm sure many companies/startups/home devs who sell apps use it. $299 for unlimited runs on all devices for a year isn't that much considering the money you can make with an app, and ensuring compatibility can only generate more sales.

And considering the cost of buying 182 devices and let them run 24/7, plus the cost of hiring devs to create the backend and the (great ) website too. I wouldn't expect it to be cheaper.

But for a single dev having no paid apps on the market like me, definitely not affordable, so invites ftw!!!^^
