Hi all,

How do I run the scripts in the /etc/init.d/ directory?

I tried putting this code into the init.rc, but it didn't work:

# Execute files in /etc/init.d before booting
service sysinit /system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
disabled
oneshot

Thank you,

[Desire General] Baz8755:
Every once and a while I find that the odd app on my SD card will uninstall itself.

When I go into application manager the application shows as being on the SD card but has lost its icon and I cannot find any way to get it back other than to unistall the app and redownload from the market. The unistall usually errors the first time but succeeds on the second attempt.

I do not recall this issue prior to the Froyo update last year.

The sequence of events is as follows.

-Update an app from the marketplace.

-Reboot phone

-A different app to the one updated will have been uninstalled.

I know that SD apps take a little longer to register after a reboot but this is well after that period.

It has probably occured about 5 or 6 times since installing Froyo and would like to know what causes it, how to avoid it and what can be done to retrieve the app other than uninstalling re-installing.

My phone is an HTC Desire factory unbranded unlocked non-rooted

Cheers

Delete the Android folder on SD and reboot.

Possibly repartition the SD card if still having problems.
[Desire General] Baz8755:
Hi,

A couple of questions concering this

- What does the Android folder contain and what will I lose by deleting it?

- I haven't partitioned the card before and was wondering if this is something that would ever need to be done on a non-rooted phone and if so how would you do it?

Cheers

My question to the first bloke, why bother asking a question about something,

then when someone who knows gives you an answer and you ignore it, just because it's the answer you didn't want to hear :rolleyes:

Then take the advice of someone who's ordered one but hasn't tried it yet, but will soon and find out it doesn't work just like the 100's of others who have posted on google quoting problems.

But who also read negative reports but ignored them :rolleyes:

Hello yesterday when i was flashing a custom ROM Odin hanged at facroryfs.rfs.

I pulled my cable out and rebooted the phone by pulling out the battery but now the phone won't start even in download mode the screen just stays black.

noting helps usb cable, loading the phone , ..

Do you have any idea how to fix this?
[Galaxy 3 General] hamsiro:
Try recovery mode, but probably it won't work neither. Try also removing sim and sdcard... In such cases, when you cannot start the phone in any mode, the Samsung service is the only solution...

[Galaxy S I9000 General] smohanv:
A question for you. I have been looking everywhere but could not find a solution.

I am using firewall to filter calls and messages. Also I am using app protector pro to protect applications like settings, installer etc. The risk is, any one accessing to your phone can easily remove the apps (i.e App protector pro or Firewall etc..) from the app drawer (app drawer > menu > edit then touch the app to remove). Only 3rd party apps can be removed this way and not the system apps.

If there is a way to treat the 3rd party apps as system app then this accidental/mischief removal of apps can be stopped.

Is there anyone help in this..

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] smohanv:
Hi guys,

Any thoughts in this issue.

Please help.... this may help many of the forum users..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cronozNL:
Hey smohanv,

This will be my first post in this forum because I think I now have the knowledge to help others :)

So here it goes!

I used SGS Tools to remove some of my system apps.

Open SGS Tools > Cleanup System Apps and you can select which ones to delete.

It didn't took all system apps btw, I still had a few meaningless apps which I couldn't delete.

For these apps I used Root explorer to delete them manually. Be carefull tho, don't delete stuff you don't know.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cronozNL:
Alright I now see my first post on this forum is a complete fail :confused:

You meant something else, treat the 3rd party apps as system apps so they won't get deleted.

Good question on which I don't know the answer yet but I did give you a bump hehe

Someone else has any suggestions?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] smohanv:
Hi

Thanks for the response. The question is not about removing system app. The question is, how to prevent apps getting uninstalled by anyone seeing your phone. From the OS Froyo onwards, any app can be (except system app) removed just by invoking menu > remove by touching the icon.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xxbeanxx:
If you have root you can copy the .apk of the app to /system/app.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] silverstorm:
Yes, as xxbeanxx said, if you have root, you can move the apps you want to protect into your /systems/ directory through ADB or through the Terminal app and that way it will not be available through the TouchWiz drawer delete option.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] smohanv:
Thanks for the workaround. I have rooted phone. Can the apk file be moved to system/app folder using root explorer.

Thanks again. If it works through file explorer than using adb or terminal app many forum users can benefit.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xxbeanxx:
Yes, this will work fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] smohanv:
Hi

It worked. Thanks for the suggestion. I copied the installed apk from data/app folder to system/app folder and restarted my device. It works.

Many thanks.
[Galaxy Tab General] bdl1969:
I packaged up a mix of the stock JMI PDA, JMG CSC and JK5 modem for my own Tab and thought I'd post a download link in case anyone would like to try it. The JMI PDA is stock, I haven't altered it at all. The JMG CSC has carrier data for UK carriers amongst others (the CSC that comes with JMI is only Russia). The JK5 modem is the stock one for UK supplied Tabs so (theoretically) should be best suited for UK mobile providers. The ROM can be rooted with SuperOneClick and it's nice and fast. The only issue is that you have to copy and paste a folder called T9DB into /system after the flash otherwise the Samsung keypad doesn't work properly. I've attached a zipped up copy of the folder here, just unzip it, copy it to your SD card and use something like Root Explorer to copy in into /system. Samsung have included the T9DB folder in their CSC file instead of the factoryfs file this time (why???).

Here's the link to download the ROM package. Note that it does not contain bootloaders! I have only included factoryfs.rfs, param.lfs, zimage, cache.rfs and modem.bin in the package. When I flashed it onto my Tab it didn't overwrite any of my settings and all my applications were still present and working, it just removes Root and resets your home screen. http://www.multiupload.com/5L68OTH9QY

Flash as PDA with Odin 1.7. Select no PIT file and do not re-partition.

Powersave sets your clock speed at the minimum, just like performance sets it at the maximum. Of course it's going to lag when your phone is running at a constant 245mhz.

2 reasons I can think of but would like to know why. 1. I have patched my market, so maybe the update isn't suitable for this phone even though it's showing? 2. My presvious version was a patched version someone on xda did to rip out the ads, and maybe this isnt helping?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathias.lin:
I try to activate WifiAP (wifi tethering) via my application code. Since there is no direct API for it, it needs to be done via reflection.

Using the approach as mentioned on StackOverflow.com.

It works fine on Nexus One, HTC Desire, Huawei Ideos (all running 2.2.x), but it doesn't run on the SGS with 2.2.1.

Checking the android.net.wifi.WifiManager class via reflection, I see that Samsung has obviously modified the class and it has 57 instead of 37 methods.

Unfortunately the modified WifiManager class is not open sourced by Samsung and the error messages don't give any details or stack trace.

I am looking for somebody who can enable WifiAP activation programmatically on the SGS, eventually by modifying the underlying system, since I'm myself am an application developer, not working on system level. Also considering contract work!

There are two things I am trying:

1) activate WifiAP directly via reflection:

WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
Method[] wmMethods = wifi.getClass().getDeclaredMethods();
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP methods " + wmMethods.length);
for(Method method: wmMethods){
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP method.getName() " + method.getName());
if(method.getName().equals("setWifiApEnabled")) {
WifiConfiguration netConfig = new WifiConfiguration();
netConfig.SSID = "MyWifiAP";
netConfig.allowedAuthAlgorithms.set(WifiConfiguration.AuthAlgorithm.OPEN);
netConfig.allowedProtocols.set(WifiConfiguration.Protocol.RSN);
netConfig.allowedProtocols.set(WifiConfiguration.Protocol.WPA);
netConfig.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.NONE);
try {
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP try: ");
method.invoke(wifi, netConfig, enabled);
if (netConfig.wepKeys!=null && netConfig.wepKeys.length>=1)
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP key : " + netConfig.wepKeys[0]);
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP enabled: ");
mIsWifiEnabled = enabled;
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "enableMobileAP failed: ", e);
}
}
}

Attached are the logfiles I am getting on Nexus One (success) and SGS (failure).

The noticable part in the SGS log are maybe these lines:

D/WifiService( 2818): setWifiApEnabled: allowWifiAp: true
E/WifiService( 2818): setWifiApEnabledState 2
E/SoftapController( 2681): Softap already stopped
E/WifiService( 2818): Exception in stopAccessPoint()
E/WifiService( 2818): setWifiApEnabledState 4
D/WifiAp (23523): enableMobileAP key : null

2) another thing I try - since the modified SGS WifiManager (only that one) has a method named 'showApDialog' without any parameter taken, I try to call that method, but this also just gives an 'Error' in the log without further explanation.)

WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
Method[] wmMethods = wifi.getClass().getDeclaredMethods();
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP methods " + wmMethods.length);
for(Method method: wmMethods){
Log.d(TAG, "enableMobileAP method.getName() " + method.getName());
if(method.getName().equals("showApDialog")) {
WifiConfiguration netConfig = new WifiConfiguration();
try {
method.invoke(wifi);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Main", "Can't open ap dialog.", e);
}
}
}
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chucklz:
I have been able to enable an existing configuration by passing null as the WifiConfiguration parameter to the setWifiApEnabled method.

I had the same problems as you when I tried to use this function to create a new configuration. I also failed when I tried to pass the existing configuration as a parameter, after invoking getWifiApConfiguration.

I noticed in the Android source code that there is a similar function called setWifiApConfiguration, but calling wifiManager.getClass().getMethod("setWifiApConfiguration") throws NoSuchMethodException when I run it on my SGS.

I also wondered if I can use addNetwork to create a new configuration, but suspect it is only for connecting to APs, rather than creating one.

As I only wanted to toggle the existing configuration, which I have now achieved, I stopped investigating at this point.

Hope that helps,

Good luck...
