How do you edit updater-script? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to edit the file but it won't save, is there a way to do it with adb or some other way to delete or edit part of the script?

Use root explorer.

You will also need notepad++, to properly edit it and preserve linux-specific "things" (to keep it simple).

Thanks for the guide, I'll check it out and hopefully get it to work.

Got it! Used Notepad++ after decompressing the zip and then compressing it again.

Can you explain in detail how you installed? Using stock rom: I download the file, renamed it .apk, used rootexplorer to copy and then pasted in system/app and changed permissions to rw-r-r . Nothing shows up in widgets nor programs...what did I do wrong?
Well I didn't rename it. Just download and move into the system/app folder and changed permissions. But I should tell you I also DL the "signed" one. When I tried the other it didn't work. Also it will be in widget list as Asus weather widget. So should be near the top of the list. I couldn't find it either thinking it would be near the bottoms in the W's. Anyway I hope you don't mind temp in Celsius because so far I don't think anyone knows how to make it Faren... let me know if you figure that out!

There's a link to instructions right in the OP of the ROM. If you can't read even the whole OP, you shouldn't be flashing.

My bad then, something must have changed. You're probably out of luck for now
Wait, did you reboot after trying that?

Yeah I rebooted ...and the pointer is still there.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
I just flashed the rom to check it out and it worked just fine for me, so you did something wrong.
Use root explore to go to system/usr/idc then open the sec_e-pen.idc file with text editor, then replace "pointer" with "touchScreen", then hit menu, save and exit. It will back up the original file as sec_e-pen.idc.bak. Then reboot and you're good to go.
If that doesn't work, you're doing something else wrong and I can't help you.

You need to be root. It needs to be re-mounted rw. Many apps will do that for you. I use root browser.

i don't think you can touch anything within that "special" folder. i recommend cache, data, osh or system for your "test". anything else you shouldn't touch and most likely can't like sys.

You won't magicly unlock your bootloader just by changing values in /sys/firmware/fuse/ReservedOdm
Just forget it.

Tired of the AT&T boot up? Here is a better one.

A bootanimation.zip and shutdownanimation.zip made to sport the LG Optimus G(E970) and its S4pro CPU. I haven't tested it on any other models, so proceed at your own risk.
Uploading a preview to youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-t_47gDGCxE&feature=youtu.be
TO INSTALL:
You must first be rooted
Download the two zip folders
Paste them into /system/media
DO NOT forget to backup your original boot/shutdownanimation.zip folders (if you need a copy of them let me know and I will upload them.)
And you are finished
Instructions on rooting and more can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006946&highlight=root
soo, just flash in recovery?
Put the zip files in the /system/media folder. And it works like a charm.

Just like he said. Make sure to back up your old boot/shutdownanimation.zip folders so you don't lose them. I just added .bak at the end of them

You have to be rooted for it to work. Then I would recommend using root explorer to paste them into the system/media folder
