This won't work for Galaxy Ace, because the scripts in that thread refer to some Motorola scripts that are not present in Ace (/system/bin/mot_boot_mode).
Does someone know of a script that gets executed at boot in a Galaxy Ace stock rom? If so, maybe it could be used in the same way as mot_boot_mode for Motorola Droid, and get an executable /etc/init.d in our stock Galaxy Aces...
Just have a look at the "!Autostarts - Enable init.d on Stock ROMS.sh" script. It is very straightforward.
Juanma.
I would really be interested in this. Anyone? Care to shed some light on this little issue?
Basically you have to add this into the init.rc file (after creating manually the init.d folder of course):
service sysinit /system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
disabled

=> an example of usage; or just google "busybox run-parts"
It is the same method which CF-Root also uses. So you still have the option to study the CF-Root way and will learn some more tricks on the way. ...

So I take it it is not as simple as browsing with Root Explorer, finding the file and adding it. If not, could you tell me how. Can I do it using the terminal emulator app rather than connecting phone to PC and using cygwin? Thanks

I'm really not sure it's possible. But regarding 'in-phone script writing' Pyronia's just started a thread here on it that you could possibly raise the issue in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1476400
Thanks. I tried to extract using the adb pull command to desktop but kept getting permission denied. So I managed to change permission on init.rc and send it via bluetooth to my desktop. I edited the file and put it back in via bluetooth to sd and then used root explorer to move back the file to root and changed back to the original permission of the file. Before I did this, I manually created the init.d folder. What permissions do I set the init.d folder? Do I set it to rwxr-xr-x like the other folders inside /etc? Also how do I know or test that the script is enabled and that it is functioning properly as it should?

Rest of that thread has a suggestion on testing if its working forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20134361#post20134361
I think permission of init.d is rwxr-xr-x. Check this thread here forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390093

Basically, I mean how would I know if init.d is activated and any scripts I put in is actually working. After all I created init.d folder manually. What command do I type in adb shell to see if scripts are working?
Can someone help me troubleshoot this please. I have put scripts in the init.d folder but see no difference. I followed the method on this thread to enable init.d. I don't notice any difference after putting any scripts such as lagfree, turboboost or even the keylight one.

Init.d support ? Not without CF-ROOT
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.
Well I thought this thread was about init.d on stock rom without CF-Root.
Hi all.
I'm trying to copy some files to the system partition after enabling write on read-only partitions and remounting it and everything is success, but when I restart the phone, files get deleted and partition back to original. I tried ES file explore and Total Commander.

Hmm.. seems like a hard question!

Hey,
no not a hard question but a bit confusing
So the copy to system works without probs?
Do u have root-enabled on it?
U can try Solid explorer once, too, to be sure.
CHEERS
I enabled root explorer and I mounted the file system to be writable, yes I have a rooted phone.
I can copy to system root folders anything (media files), the files stay there until I reboot the phone then they disappear, they get deleted maybe? how to disable that?
Thanks

That listen like u have to save changes?!
Pls try the Solid explorer (for me the best explorer ever)
Copy files and have a look for root-acces request (should be asked for Solid, if it's new)
The copy/replace the file.
CHEERS
Thanks Hannibal for reply, I got no luck on doing it, they still get removed after reboot. Is there a way to flash these files that I want to copy to system as an update.zip?

Sure there's a way, but I can't help u with it, sorry.
With new Titanium Backup u can create flashable .zips but for sure only from isntalled apps.
Maybe u have a look at google. I remind for a tool which u just say what u wanna flash an it creates the flashable .zip.
Much success....
CHEERS
Edit: Sorry but couldn't answer u yesterday.
XDA had a prob for a while
When I try to install the premium version of Rom Manager i get "youre trying to replace a system app , do you want to continue ?" .
I click yes and then get "App not installed"
Any help or suggestions plz ?
Thanks
do you have root access? because that is necessary to change any system app in any case. Super User should pop up if you do have root. If it does not, maybe you accidentally denied it root privileges on first start.
Yes im sure its rooted and i checked Superuser logs on rom manager.
"created allowed allowed" and its in the allowed list.
Im guessing the installation is failing because its a system app thats in use or something ?
Since its a system app and installed via CM7 i cant even delete it.
It doesnt show in the installed apps list.
Any help is appreciated.
There is a directory under the /system folder I believe(bin?). Under that directory are a series of apk files and I bet there is still a file there for the rom manager. If you remove that with root explorer or something similar you should be good to go.

To anyone having a similiar problem this is how I solved it.
-remount system/app dir to RW
-delete offending APK
-remount /data/data to RW
-delete offending dir (in rommanger's case it was com.koushikdutta.rommanger
-reboot
-reinstall.
Firstly I am a complete noob to root/roms etc etc, and my main goal was to increase the memory of my Samsung galaxy ace.
I have been unsuccessful after following advice in all different threads, so thought maybe if I started my own thread some lovely peeps around here may be able to help me get it sorted.
OK so what I've done so far
Rooted phone
installed cwm recovery
installed cyanogen mod 10.1
partitioned sd card to fat32 and ext3
installed int2ext+ script.
I used terminal emulator to get the script into the init.d folder following some prompts foud online, (using es file explorer I kept getting a read only message)
I formatted and mounted sd-ext via recovery menu
At the moment it still isn't showing the extra memory of the sd ext partition.
The current contents of the init.d folder are as follows:
00banner
40int2ext
50selinuxrelabel
90userinit
So if someone can point me in the right direction of what to do next because I am now comlpletely lost .
Thanks Guys!!!!!

Hi,
I don't know, how would I find out or set permissions?
I have es file explorer which says in properties that it is readable:yes, writable:yes, hidden:no Is this what you mean?????
Sorry total noob, can follow instructions but as for understanding what half this tech jargon is...........:silly:
Reboot into CWM
Mounts/Storage>Mount System
Install zip from SD card>choose the attachment zip

go to your file explorer then on the 40int2sd file and long press on it. choose permissions and then you shoukd see something like rwrr or rwxrwxrwx or something like that

Thankyou, managed to download root browser, permissions are rw-r--r--
Check permissions of other init.d script and set them the same way for the int2ext+. Or just delete the script and flash it directly from recovery.
Hi everybody. I learned so much from this forum (and also from others) in one year and tried to share my knowledge to those who try to learn like me.
Now i would like to share one of my experiences. i dont know if someone wrote about this, yet i could not find anywhere in this forum. When we share a "port" for example "s4 keyboard for s3", we say that we need root access in order to use this port. But when i think, if this apk files replace themselves with the original ones and rom thinks that they are the originals, why should we need root access? Of course we need recovery to flash them but do we absolutely need root? And i flashed 3 separate ports (keyboard, launcher and callrecord) into a fresh installed 4.3 MK6 stock rom without root and they worked... and still do... (scripts have to delete odex files automatically)
Installing a recovery will increase the binary counter and since your binary is up why not rooting right? But those who dont want to root their phone but still want to use the visuality, can install a recovery and flash the ports without rooting... Tested and proven...
You need root access for applications/ports that will need to be installed in system directories (that only the superuser can alter). Some directories/partitions are read-only, so you have to mount the them as writable too. It all depends on the application.

If editing apps from rom then yes. But if you are flashing them through recovery you dont need root access for read and write permitions. Script also does that itself. Thats what im talking about
