HI guys

I just discovered a way to make init.d work on my rom and it should work on other roms as long as everything is followed down to the T

Basically there are 5 things you need to do

1: BootImageExtractor *links to follow* need to get it from my other laptop

2: Notepad++ *ask google*

3: Rashr *or any other apps that can flash kernels I just use this one*

4: Rooted Device

5: Rootexplorer *or any apps that let you dig deep into the root of THE android*

Ok lets start

First up is to unpack your boot.img and you should see your RAMDISK folder

now go ahead and look for init.rc and open it with notepad++ now add this code either at the very top or below the import scripts.

import /init.d.sh

You can use any name really as long as you have the same import script and name of the sh file

Now on to the next step which is to create a .sh file

Open up notepad++ and add this code in

#!/system/bin/sh

on property:sys.boot_completed=1
start sysinit

service sysinit /sbin/sysinit.sh
oneshot
class late_start
user root
group root
disabled

Now save as and use all types and name it init.d.sh and be sure its in the ramdisk folder

Having fun yet?

now last but not the least the sysinit.sh file!

same method as above but with a different code and is saved in the sbin folder

#!/system/bin/sh

mount -o remount,rw /;
mount -o rw,remount /system

# init.d support
if [ ! -e /system/etc/init.d ]; then
mkdir /system/etc/init.d
chown -R root.root /system/etc/init.d
chmod -R 755 /system/etc/init.d
fi

# start init.d
for FILE in /system/etc/init.d/*; do
sh $FILE >/dev/null
done;

And there you have it folks!

I would like to credit where I got the idea from but alas the guy who gave me the boot.img says he got it from another site and got it randomly.... so would like to thank my buddy Car *actually a human not a machine*

I already tried using the 00test script by Ryuinferno to see if it works and after two reboots I found the test log file in /data

I am new at this so please be gentle and I am still working on this because I want to integrate the scripts of Ryuinferno into the kernel *scripts being the 00test and the 00setperm* he will allow me to use them.

Again thanks XDA! my new home

Feedback please ^_^

Where is the difference to the easy to use apps from other devs?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] archeart:
This is just an alternate method

and there are some phones who cant get init.d to work even with the universal init.d app * i know cause my device has that problem*

I am not saying those apps are not working, infact I use those when I help mates with their phones performance *its easier yes*

and this is something like kernel injection so just flashing a kernel will add init.d and would/could be useful for some devs or guys who just want to know how things tick *like me*

So I just bought myself a shiny new Xperia Z5 compact.

I went to the Sony Developer website but my device isn't listed (screenshot attached). No phones are listed in fact, just tablets. Can anyone else check to confirm this? Or might it be a location thing?

If it is a location thing, I'd really appreciate anyone who can help me get the key. I know how to do everything else, and I can just send my IMEI.

I checked the service menu in the phone and bootloader unlock is allowed.

Thank you in advance,

Cheers.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenboyles72:
Some time this week, radiopup has quit playing sound, was working great before. I have cleared cache/data, uninstalled and reinstalled and have even done a complete fresh install of os. still no sound from the app. anyone else experience the same or have suggestions?

Edit:

NM, guess it was just the station.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] BerettaFreak:
Ok well I had a unlocked 8125 and I stumbled across a new 8525 for 150, so I picked that up... Now I should be getting it tomorrow and my question is this...

I'm assuming I fall under the post April category(being brand new) with the difficult SIM unlocking procedure... Now I'm not really in to switching around my carrier, I have AT&T its a AT&T branded phone and I'm fine with that... the only thing I really care about is being able to flash different OS roms and whatnot.

So do I just run the auto unlocker and only select CID unlock??

I've been trying to read and find out if the auto unlocker CID option will still work for post April units but I haven't been able to find the response yet.

Or am I totally in left field on this??? Do I need both CID and SIM unlocked to do OS rom flashes??

I acquired the 8125 already unlocked and those tend to be easier to do stuff to than these, or I'm just not reading the right thread.

Any info is appreciated.

I will not be turning the unit on till I hear a response from you guys. Worse case I just wont let the customization complete.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
You only need to do CID for that purpose. You are correct. Of course, doing SIM won't hurt you, but you only NEED CID.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] BerettaFreak:
Ok so when I get this phone... turn it on, do touch screen thing, do other crap, and CANCEL the customization with a soft reboot??? and then I can sim unlock it?

What sim unlocker do I use and whats the best radio for my location? Phone will actually be delivered today so this is why I'm asking.

Wait I think I got it... Turn on phone... Reboot before customization...

Run AUTO_Unlock_v3a once connected, after 1.16 radio installed then run Herm_Unlock_v3.exe to unlock it and once that is done run SoftBank_1.33.761.4_Extrom to remove the bootloader update.exe and then I can hard reboot without problems...

That sound right? This is following POF's thread on how to unlock these... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=301952
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Starfury:
I just run olipro 2.10 hardspl v7 and then I can flash any rom and radio I wish.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] BerettaFreak:
Yes but mine is a post April release phone which aparently has a radio bootloader update to 0182 which then makes the Radio rom un updatable, or impossible to unlock the sim.

Unless I dont need the Sim unlocked to do radio updates... but the more I read leads me to believe I wont be able to update the radio if I let the 0182 radio bootloader update run.

OR unless I'm completely retarded and this doesnt apply to the AT&T 8525.... I cant really find that on here.

Either way I'M LOST!

Yeah I think I'm retarded and read too far into this... I don't think the AT&T 8525's have this Radio Bootloader update thingy thats coming on the SoftBank phones...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] BerettaFreak:
Well all is good... fired the phone up, used it for all of 20 min before I used the auto unlocker on it unlocked CID and SIM, and then flashed it with VP3G WM6 rom, and the newest 1.54 radio... all is good so far.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] BerettaFreak:
Ok, I think I'm still at 1.04 IPL and 1.40 SPL, Olipro, is it worth it for me to install the Hard SPL v7 update??

IPL and SPL stuff on these phones are slightly more confusing than on the older 8125's

Also how do you get to the 3 color boot loader screen manually?

I did a HTC WM6 flash, wasnt very impressed and went back to the vp3G setup... Also is the 1.54.07 radio any good... the HTC rom put me down to 1.48 and since the 1.54 takes 20 min to upload I may leave it as is right now.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
I would update to the latest HardSPLv7. Oli makes it better every time - more protection.

1.54 is an AT&T release, so it is probably better than 1.48. I think 1.50 was also an AT&T release, but you can use it and see if it works. The biggest difference usually seems to be battery.

Regarding putting into bootloader screen, I don't have my phone on front of me, but I am sure it is in the wiki. It is a right side button, a left side button and the press the reset hole on the bottom. I think it is the bottom side buttons - OK, PTT and the reset hole. (I think)

Hey guys and gals. So I have been missing my notification light allot. I just rooted and unlocked because I figured there is no way I am going to turn this in. Anyway I was playing around on gravity box and there is a setting to have the navigation buttons blink when you get a notification. Yes! It works too. I didnt find anything about this when I was looking so I thought I would post it.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
I am in an unlimited data contract with Verizon and have been using Hangouts for my incoming and outgoing calls for the last 1.5 years because I prefer to use Hangouts/Google Voice for various reasons.

Today I tried placing a call through Hangouts on my VZW data connection and instead of the standard Hangouts dialing sound, I got a standard dialing "tone", followed by "Thank you for choosing Verizon Wireless. Your call can not be completed as dialed".

It seems like they are no longer allowing calls through Google Hangouts. Outgoing calls is all I have confirmed at this point.

Anyone else experiencing this?

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Midnight247:
Hey Everyone,

I have a Find 7 (X9076). A while back I updated to the "stable version " of ColorOSi and ever since my usb doesn't charge the phone and vol down key doesn't work. Additionally it is being misread by the computer device manager as a "Samsung Android Device" when it is in boot loader mode.

I suspected it was a software/kernel issue because when I checked the registry I found the original oppo drivers, so I attempted to flash a new kernel to the device and ended up soft bricking it (no image). Now even though it is soft bricked I am still able to get into boot loader mode (no image). Please Help?

I have used Find 7 recovery installer and FASTBOOT (CMD) as well as trying to use ADB and a Find 7 unbricking tool in Windows 7 test mode the last two didn't work/didn't recognize my phone at all. I refuse to abandon my device so what do I do?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] dt_matthews:
Given you have adb access, you could extract the contents of the current (2.x?) color os image, and fastboot flash the partitions manually.

I recently did this and 'recovered' my device.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Midnight247:
adb didnt recognize my device -but how do I do that just in case I'm able to get it working?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tropical cactus:
I flashed a kernel once and the phone just died. I fixed it by following the unbrick thread in oppo forum.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Midnight247:
ADB, FastBoot and the USB

I don't know if I was clear in my explanation as to how and when my device (FIND7 X9076) is recognized ONLY by the following: my Computer (Windows 7), the Device Manager, Fast-Boot and on the FIND7 Recovery Installer. I have been able to enter fast-boot mode on any version of the ColorOS I flashed, 1.2 - 2.5.1, (stable version) and work within the confines of that mode. However when the USB is connected in anything other mode (recovery-main OS) it ceases functionality (sending information to comp for recognition, charging, etc.). Also the charger doesn't work and nor does the notification light. Now I may be wrong, but for these reasons I believe the problem is likely software related. I am open to any opinions and advice.

-Thank You Everyone
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Midnight247:
If this http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=23067&extra= is the guide you are referring to I have downloaded the tool but I cannot seem to get it to recognize my device. I went into test mode downloaded and installed all of the drivers but my FIND7 still doesn't show. Have you had this problem?? What should I do??
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tropical cactus:
Try the guide by cpthero on pg 28. It worked for me but didn't for the last person who tried it. You have to keep trying. For me, installing drivers was the hard part. After that, it just sailed through. Good luck.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Midnight247:
Okay, I will. To be honest that is one of the struggles I have been having (drivers installing). I am about to try erasing the false drivers that keep popping up ("Samsung Android Device") from my windows registry. Did you go this far? What did you do to resolve the problem? Thank you for your feedback, I will keep everyone posted.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tropical cactus:
Step 7-9 is crucial. If not done, the rest of the process cannot be carried out. Remove battery as well.

**IMPORTANT UPDATE**

***MAKE OPPO FIND 7 OPERABLE****

following commands in fastboot mode:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn

fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn

fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn

fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn

fastboot flash tz tz.mbn

fastboot flash LOGO logo.bin

By using the afformentioned commands in fastboot (of course) I was able to restore my phone to almost full functionality. It operates noramally and I fixed the notication light, But I say almost because I cannot charge my phone or have it recognized by my computer through any charger or usb connection when it is on normally or in recovery mode so if any one is familiar with this problem please respond or simply voice ideas.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] RobboW:
If you got enough functionality to use it, is it on ColorOS? If so, can it be updated? If you have stock recovery you could flash it with AOSP or Spectrum, get full function back then work toward whichever ROM you really want.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Midnight247:
I do, have full functionality : ) everything but the USB is performing properly, but to be honest I dont know what AOSP is.....also this will repair functionality to the USB?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwillie1228:
don't mean is it possible like everything can be possible. more i've heard things like no devs work with it and stuff like that. i've tried one click rooters and things like that havent bricked the phone but dont know alot about rooting just that i've been told its the only way to get the full use of my sd card. factory reset with most updates removed i only have maybe 400mb of space to be used for apps and such regardless of the sd card..

If theirs no way this can reasonably be done still i'll welcome some advice on a replacement preferably of the cheap variety lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Sir_Eagle:
Just received this case in the mail today and had to get some pics of it right away. This is a very well made case. It is a TPU case with a hard plastic cover attached to the back of it. It has a nicely textured design on the back. The sides have a bit of a recess to make it easy to grip and good protection at the corners. All cutouts on top, bottom, and for camera are perfect. The hard plastic back has a slightly raised X shape for better strength. The case works great with the film screen protector that I am using. This case has a pretty square shape on the back sides, it doesn't show the tapered side edges of the phone do to how it's made. The inside is fitted to the edges though. When the phone is resting on the back you can make it wobble, this is do to the raised Poetic "P" emblem that is raised. My Samsung wireless fast charger works well with this case too.The Poetic brand of cases seem to be very well made, with what appears to be great protection in thinner designs, while being stylish and a decent price. This is my second Poetic case as I have their Affinity also.

Overall performance is really good. The phone is fast.Everyone was saying "its not flagship specs" but you can't tell at all. Its as fast, if not faster than my M9.

The camera I haven't got to test fully but a few test shots looked really good. I believe the trick is to use the 8mp mode but will post some pics when I take some more this week.
