Disable Auto-Brightness on Stock 2.3.3? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
i search for a way to disable the auto brightness in 2.3.3 stock.
I found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18404603&postcount=6
but the hw_config.sh is not in /etc it is in / and the line to edit is not in this file.

Hello,
you can disable the auto brightness only by disabling the controller interface of the sensor!
You can do this by editing the hw_config.sh file stored in /etc with root explorer
1. change the line: i2c_pwn_als with i2c_pwn
2. set permissions to rwxr--r-- (744) if they are changed! VERY IMPORTANT!
3. reboot and njoy the missing sensor ;-)
Bye Bye

Hello,
the i2c_pwn_als is a line in the hw_config.sh file stored on /etc
use root explorer to open end edit the file

[Q] Remove Auto Capitalization

Does anyone know of a way to disable Auto Capitalization on the ThunderBolt? The setting is available in stock android but has been removed from Sense for some reason. Is there a file or setting in the root directory that can easily be removed/renamed? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

[Q] Edit sys files on ICS/CM9?

The LG G2x (P999) has had bad microphone volume forever in CyanogenMod. I found a way to edit the /sys/devices/platform/star_wm8994/data file in CM7, but it seems that this file is protected somehow in ICS/CM9. Does anyone know of a way to circumvent this security and edit the values in system files like this?
I can successfully edit and even delete the file, but it's refreshed with the original within seconds.

Xperia sola ram script problem

Hi,
I have an xperia sola with build .54. I did everything according to the instructions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417375) to make init.d scripts work on closed bootloaders also. I wrote one for myself also:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo "0,0,6144,0,14336,18432" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
But unfortunately it does not work. If I run it in terminal the value changes, but it reverts after restarting.
Sorry, for my bad english.
Hey mate,
First, check if init.d support was added correctly. Paste this in init.d with 777 permission, then restart phone, Go to/data/local/tmp/ and see if init.d_log_test.txt exists
If it does, then its an issue with script,else init.d Issue Report back and we'll look into your problem
Cheers
There it is. So, the init.d is working.
Which editor did you use to make the file ? And you did set the right permissions, no ?
I'm use notepad++, and the permission: rwxrwxrwx
Ok.. hm.. next thing, Click the "Show All Characters" option in notepad++. It looks like a "P' button.. See if the end of each line says LF or CR-LF
I see LF
Then I cant see any issues Can you send me the file ? Might be a typo or something missed out when you copy-pasted
Here: http://d-h.st/3Sk
Edit: I tried to edit init.rc. I added this line:
write /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree 0,0,6144,0,14336,18432
but it doesn't work
Sorry my english.
Still couldnt find an issue Just to be sure its not an init.d issue,can you delete that file in data/local/... and reboot to see if its made again ? Maybe init.d support got broken somewhere in between
I delete the file, but it's recreated. I tried to change the sys/module/mali/parametrs/mali_mem file, and it was succeeded. It's let to change either files, but the minefree not.
