I know this is gonna sound stupid but I don't know how to find this file lol. I have esfile explorer but I don't know where it's located. I did however just uninstall the app and then reinstall. Would that just take care of it?

Edit: Thought I quoted u but I'm talking about the initd script u mentioned we needed to replace .
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Just a letf-over bug, which has been fixed in last update, please download the new update from the playstore to get the latest changes

Glad you found out what the problem was :)

Then you simply didn't apply any tweak that involves init.d ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PIRATA!:
Beautiful answer!! You're always so complete!!

Ok for the init.d support in Siyah.. but let's say that I'd like to try the stock rom with the stock kernel for now but with init.d folder support added by using your app...once I'll install the Siyah kernel, will the init.d folder created with your app be in conflict with init.d support built in Siyah kernel????

Should I uninstall the init.d folder created with your app before installing Siyah?????

If YES..how??

About sound enhancement...can I install your hack before Siyah kernel and use it as audio hack in the mean while I install the Siyah kernel?????

Is there any relation between kernel and your audio hack that force to install one before the other one.. or can your hack be installed before or even after the Siyah kernel, and so in the order I prefer?????

Thank you very much.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] t4d73:
Oh. But they still work right? And this app does say I have init.d.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Yeah they still work, of course. Not all the tweaks involve init.d, a lot of them are build.prop tweaks and some others are sysctl tweaks that are executed right away, not through init.d

Don't worry about this, if you don't have this file /system/etc/init.d/S99Pimp_my_Rom.sh then it's good, you'd need to delete it anyway.

From now on, the init.d tweaks will be in /system/etc/init.d/99Pimp_my_Rom

First of all, init.d support stays init.d support, no matter how it's achieved. So you don't need to do anything with the init.d folder in any case, as long as the app says you have init.d it's all right.

And Beats Audio and Voodoo are completely independent from each other, you can install one , or the other, or both, or none, in the order you want, it won't ever matter ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cousiver:
A noob question and sorry if repeated.

I'm using latest Criskelo i9300 with Siyah 1.7rc3.

My CPU Gov is pegasusq but I can't find the option in PMR.

Someone can advise me bout this?

Thanx...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
No problem, this is normal, the app doesn't detect your governors, it simply offers tweaks for the most common ones.

It's clearly stated in the app, in the CPU Governor subtitle : "Please tick the Governors available in your current kernel in order to tweak them" ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Prack:
I am and was on the latest update. I went back to the same section and clicked on for hardware acceleration. It did not prompt me to reboot or anything but now it is lit up. I rebooted my phone to be sure and checked the app again and sure enough hardware acceleration is turned on.

My guess is those who applied those tweaks before will need to toggle them on to reflect this. I hope this information helps you and others.

Thank you so much for this awesome app. I'll continue to follow along and provide whatever feedback I can.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pasquy85:
Great work! For the moment it's impossible to un-pimp the various tweak, right? Or is it me I can't find the way? :p
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Yeah exactly, I didn't think about this, but as the preferences weren't saved before, the user needs to set them the first time.

Thanks for your feedback :good:

Yeah it's currently not doable through the app (except for the enable/disable section obviously), but it will soon be added.

For the moment you'll need to simply reflash your rom, without wiping /data, to get rid of all the tweaks at once.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the way guys, what is your opinion about this :

>> Should I make a separate "Un-Pimp" section in the app ?

OR

>> Should I add a "Remove Selected Tweaks" button along with the current "Apply Selected Tweaks" button in each section ?

In both cases, there will be an "Un-Pimp Everything" button in the app

And also I really want to thank all of you for your feedbacks, encouragements, nice comments and ratings on google play, you guys rock !
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] t4d73:
I think whatever is easiest for u. In both cases the user what have to reboot correct? And thank u for an amazing app! It's the only tweaking app I use now and can't wait to see where this goes from here!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Prack:
If it was me I would do a remove selected tweaks next to the apply selected tweaks button for each individual section of the app. I would do an unpimp section that unpimps all sections (if possible).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zisworg:
IMHO, if all tweaks have a flag (say, applied/notApplied) an Un-Pimp section could just list all applied of them. Here, we could untick those we don't want anymore and a top and/or bottom of the list button will clear everything. Tadaa

Thanks for your work again :) Hand Made in France :D

Enabling Hardware Acceleration never borked my device, I don't think that option should be removed, I benefited from it with a pretty significant speed boost. I think it should still be an option since it does work. The issue has to be something else, my device borked from other tweaks but never from Hw Acceleration. I tried some dalvik tweaks on a specific rom and that ended up giving me a boot loop, then tried it with a different rom and got different results. My guess is that some existing tweaks don't go so well together. I don't enable every tweak, just the ones I'm familiar with. It wouldn't kill other users to read up on the tweaks and learn about them. If a tweak already exist in the rom and the user doesn't know it, they could be repeatedly adding the same tweak again without knowing it. I once thought I was stuck on a boot loop but it took a while to boot since it ran zipalign and sqlite3 a couple of times, I checked and saw that a couple of the same scripts were already installed and just from deleting the old existing ones it sped things up again.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] t4d73:
+1 on the hardware acceleration! Excellent feature and hope it stays.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Prack:
I agree, HW Acceleration works great for me as well.

Hi everybody.. I've installed pimp my rom some weeks ago .. before the .apk release.. If I run the apk now, just to se if there is something new, do I have to delete something in my phone ? and if it is could you tell me how to do it ? tnx :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Prack:

My guess is that people with roms/devices that do not have/allow hw had this problem. I know my droid x did not have HW acceleration with gummy 1.20 until 13th angel updated it to add HW capabilities.

Hi Androguide.fr!!

Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for your awesome work with Pimp My ROM.

I'm using your Alpha APK on my Galaxy Note 2, and it works like a charm. It's THE most useful APK I've ever installed on my device, and I look forward to following and implementing each improvement as it becomes available. :)

It's people like you that made XDA such an awesome place to visit and enjoy! :D

Working on Tmobile GS3, running Wanamlite v1 which is a UVLH2 Touchwiz ROM. Before pimpin' it out, the ROM was already pretty smooth and snappy. But I can noticeably tell a different after pimpin' it out. Touchscreen is a lot more responsive which in turn makes the phone feel faster. Now just need to test battery life and network speeds once I get home and out of the basement here at work.

Great job on the MOD!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] UndisputedGuy:
Hello, thanks for this tool. Unfortunately, i can't seem to get it to work on the xperia play very well. It's quite buggy and laggy and i can't see where i can calibrate the touchscreen. It's better using the volume keys and home button but things start selecting themselves so i can't go through with the process as i can't even decide what i want.

Also, why is it that when i select which ROM i am on, 2 boxes are ticked?

Quick question: The Touchwiz widgets available to download from the app will work with any launcher or only with touchwiz itself? I would really love to have the weather-clock widget on my Go Launcher. It's so beautiful!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Looks like the weather widget is working only with touchwiz launcher (at least it doesn't work on stock aosp launcher), but the dialer widget should work with any/most launchers.

Here's a screenshot of it on aosp launcher

Oh well, that's a shame... I hope that someone will port it any day soon! I really want that widget... It's the last piece to complete my awesome launcher! This is a calling to all the developers, port it or just copy it, I don't care! Hahaha:D

Thank you again. I love your program, it really makes my phone better!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] miggsr:
Root is required for this app to work

You'll need to root it and to install busybox.

Also make sure you install a custom recovery to make a nandroid backup, but you can use it on your stock rom, no problem.

Hi

I used the apk version after flashing latest firmware for the Note 2 LTE. Then I encountered the above said. Previously I used PMR zip version n flashed thru mobile Odin. No issues. Also the apk version's beats engine installation caused the phone to reset to stock.

can anyone advise? Thanks.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks Loay, I think I'm going to remove all the flashable add-ons from the apps&mods section. As anyway you can find them easily on your own and it seems it's going to be hard to really make them universal, and as you reported, it can cause bootloops

Plus I'm not sure it's legal to offer hacked versions of proprietary apps such as touchwiz or walkman on the Play store ^^
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mlopik:
After then I installed all tweaks and reboot. My WI-FI does not work. What I am doing wrong..? (AOSP 4.0.4)

Thanks for the advices
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Either wait a few hours for the new update that will introduce a way to simply remove each tweak independently, this way you can disable the network tweaks one after the other, rebooting everytime, so you can find which one is causing your wifi to drop.

Or you can reflash your rom withtou wiping data to get rid of all the tweaks at once.

Btw, installing all the tweaks included in the app on the same rom is not advised, try to find the right combination for your device and needs.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Karcha:
Hi!

If I have some tweaks already installed via CWM they don't appear in the .apk version ( I just installed it ). Is it ok to mark them on the app or should I remove them before by flashing again the ROM?

Thanks! Awesome stuff =)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
If you already Pimped your current rom using the Aroma version of PmR, then yeah, you'll need to either manually remove all the init.d scripts generated by PmR before re-applying them through the app (The app will take care of automatically replace the former build.prop tweaks generated by the aroma version), or to simply reflash your rom without wiping /data.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Karcha:
Thanks!

I think I'll reflash because I don't know if all of them are from PMR or not, and I don't want to mess up anything.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdavis429:
Always check the rom themselves. Many devs include init.d, kernal, and build prop tweaks in their roms from the jump.

This app has really come a long way :D well done on an excellent idea and follow follow through execution :good: How far away are you from a beta or RC release?

Also, has anyone tested PMR on the new Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305 (LTE handset) :confused: although it shares the same processor (Exynos 4) it's not the same as the S3 i9300 (main differences: LTE, 1GB extra ram, and the partition tables are different).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks a lot for this nice comment.

I am still quite far from beta, in fact, it will enter beta once all (or the most part) of the features that were in the aroma version are implemented in the app.

It still lacks the whole GPS configuration screen(79 countries means a lot of work ^^), some multitasking tweaks, some build.prop tweaks, etc...

Then with the beta will come the time to add & test some new features such as cron scheduled tasks, bluetooth tweaks, universal apps2sd & /data 2 sd methods, and a lot more ;)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
+1 the list of devices was mostly needed for the aroma version, the app should work on any device running gingerbread and up.

(Still, make a backup as some tweaks/combos can still cause bootloops on some devices).

This gives me an idea, I'll soon include a "Rescue" option that will /download a flashable zip which will remove all the Pimpin' in case of bootloops.
