How to apply?
Interested! And how to apply your hack/patch to device? Please explain, coz i'm using device for only a couple of days.

there is an easier method, just in case...
u need root and then to extract bootloader file. open it with an text editor. then find the lines where u see "use audio 1", change 1 with 0 and then push back the file to replace the old one...

Is there any way of modding cpuinfo_max_freq without custom kernel?

Is there any possibility of modding /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq without modding the kernel?
Just in case you don't know, cpuinfo_max_freq is the file that limits the maximum processor speed to 1000mhz.
cpuinfo_min_freq is the one that limits the minimum processor speed to 100mhz (i've no interest in modding that file).
I know i can acquire this with a custom kernel or by modding one myself, but i'd like to know if there's any way of doing this other than with a custom kernel.
Tried using root explorer and change permissions to write too apart from read and then modding, without success.
Tried changing permissions using root explorer and then using an init.d script
Tried a few more things, but so far none have worked.
Thanks

You did everything correct but one thing more open root explorer.
# Go to desire file (make sure you have it on rw)
# Now press and hold the file
# a menu will popup
# go to open in text editor and you can edit it
Enjoy

i have just tried it.. normally when i change any system file with text editor, i click on "save&exit" and it says it is saved and the original file is named as xxxxxxx.bak..
but this time there is no .bak file and the original file is not changing.. i write 1200000 but when i try to open it again it turns back into 1000000 ...

Tried that too. Root explorer says it's modded it but if you open it again, no change has been applied
Apparently, it's read only even after changing permissions.

or that file is modified by something else all the time.. obviously we have to change something else before that..

The kernel. Just wanted to find out if there was another way, it'd be much simpler than modding a kernel. It seems there isn't

Just a trial idea, copy that file to as card, then edit it. See if it saved then, then rename old one as xxxx.bak and paste the edited file there.
I can't do it as I am on a custom kernal and i am able to change it as I said.
Check it out and tell if that's any help

Its impossible, i tried this command on terminal: echo 1800000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq it says permission denied (i was su)

I have the same problem

think you have to edit the init.rc file

[MOD] Enable init.d scripts support on stock kernel

Hello!
This is a small mod, inspired by non other than our great DoomLord (so if it helped you, thank him/donate to him/worship him ) and his thread in the X10 section.
I am trying a lot of things on my phone, so I often switch back and forth from stock kernel to DoomKernel.
However, I use lots of init.d scripts (my favorite one being SuperCharger)
and I just don't want to lose this feature when I'm on stock.
So, without further ado, here are the steps that are needed to make init.d scripts run automatically at boot on stock kernel.
Requirements:
1. Stock Kernel
2. Root
3. Busybox
4. CMW Recovery for Stock Kernel by nAa.
5. Root Explorer or any other similar app.
Instructions:
1. Download the attached zip and place it in a folder in your SD card.
2. With Root Explorer, go to /system/etc. Press the Mount RW button on top right corner.
a. If the file install-recovery.sh is not there, then press Menu and create a New File.
Name it install-recovery.sh and then long-press on it and select Open in Text Editor.
Paste this text in it:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# init.d support
busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d/
Save it and delete any .bak file that Root Explorer might have created. Set the permissions as in the attached screenshot.
OR
b. If the file install-recovery.sh is already there, long-press on it and select Open in Text Editor. Paste this text in the end:
Code:
# init.d support
busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d/
In both scenarios, don't forget to leave one empty line at the end of install-recovery.sh file. ***
3. Reboot into Recovery and flash the init.d-autorunner-stock.zip.
4. Reboot your phone and with Root Explorer go to /data/local/tmp.
There should be a txt file there named "init.d_log_test.txt" and once you open it, you should see the word "done".
5. Now you can use your favorite init.d scripts on stock kernel!
If you want to check if the scripts you want to use actually work, please refer to one of my older threads about how to test them.
*** I am not including an install-recovery.sh because this is the file that Link2SD depends on, so it's better if you modify it yourself, rather than use mine.
Let me know if it worked for you!

This is a setup in order for scripts placed in /system/etc/init.d to be executed automatically at boot. Such scripts can do lots of things, like RAM optimisation, CPU scaling, mount options, etc etc etc.

Can the script be added to hw_config.sh? Will it be execute on boot? Inteks' swap2cache script can be added to hw_config.sh too.

Sorry, I don't know for sure. But probably yes.

Great post mate, thanks. (already give you thanks button)

Seeing if this works on ray
I get this file in the init.d folder after.flashing the file
#!/system/bin/sh
touch /data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt
echo "done" >> /data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt
Not in data/ local
I have ran supercharger script and files are appearing in inlit.d folder think it's working
Edit : tested it as per the thread further up it would seem its all working!
Sweet
Hope it is ok I have shared this on the Ray thread? (I have linked back to your thread)

Hi iridaki thanks for your little mod here! I just want to give a hint of what might been a little issue but might make your whole mod is not running. You do mention about changing permission on install-recovery.sh, but you gave it as a picture. The Problem is XDA on web these days is not arranging the image as inline, but as an attachment. So i and chiefy009 did the same mistake, not changing the permission because it is just a one line and not clear enough. Please add additional step like:
3. Make sure install-recovery.sh have permissions of rwxr-xr-x

Worked for me. I'm using Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro MK16i with stock rom (root + cwm including).

Hello
doesn't worked for me ;(
Sony Xperia Arc S (LT18i) build ver. 4.1.B.0.587
nAa's CWM 5.0.2.7
rooted
there is no this test log file in /data/local/tmp afret applying the zip
so what i have after "apply zip file" in recovery meny and rebooting:
in /system/xbin new binary file run-parts
in /system/etc new folder init.d with test99 script in it
in /sysrem/etc file install-recovery.sh which was made by us previously
it looks like would work...but it does not
So, what can i do myself?
Thank you in any way

need (my files) app on captivate

does anyone know if there is a .tar file or something so i could flash the my files app on my cappy that usually comes on the cappy with the official firmwares? i just need some kind of file to do that because i dont like astro and es file manager, etc. even a link to somewere where this has been done before would help, thanks.

Why use that when the others have a **** ton more functionality? Like root file exploration.
Do you have any .tar stock firmware package? Open that archive with 7zip and go to /system/app and drag it out...then use a root file explorer (lolz oh the irony) to drop it in /system/app
Or use adb to push it there
Or get a theme cwm zip package and delete all the files out of the folders (not touching the meta-inf folder) and drop it in /system/app and flash that.

I did indeed LOL

hmm...i think im gonna get the cwm package and just do that, do you have any link on one of those, if not then how can i get or look one of those up?

any theme zip will do, just not a ROM zip that has a kernel and modem in it you don't need top flash the theme zips ate just system apk files you can delete out and add your apk in. Make sure only that apk is in it though.
Hold on...I'll hey you a link where i posted a test zip you can use.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22271929&postcount=1403
In that post is a cwm zip, open that archive with 7zip go to /system/app delete what's there and drop that apk in. Then flash that in recovery.

ya well it didnt work..

Ya well you give more detail we can help.... "It didn't work" isn't very helpful for trouble shooting...

it said that the installation was aborted

What version of cwm do you have?
Or are you on an aosp ROM?

Just use a root explorer, go in and unzip any file that has it in it, then go to the extracted folder, long press on it and hit COPY, then back out until your at SYSTEM and paste it, then look for the file in SYSTEM and long press on it and choose permissions, then change it so it matches the SAME PERMISSIONS in SYSTEM/APP, then once you have the permissions correct long press on it and move it into SYSTEM/APP and hit PASTE. them REBOOT the phone and it will be in there and working. NO NEED to try flashing it in cwm. This MAY sound like a lot of work but it is VERY EASY AND FOOL PROOF.

OI File Manager. Looks almost exactly like my files.

Ok rockratt...first of all...when i tried putting the file in system...
It said failed, and also what do you mean to fix the permisions?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App

It failed because you need to mount that partition r/w instead of the default r/o...should be an option for that on the root file explorer you used.

As studacris said make sure to set it to read/write. When using ROOT EXPLORER you will see a button towards the top the probably says MOUNT R/W click on it and then paste it to SYSTEM( the reason I say to paste it to SYSTEM first so you can change the apparently permissions before moving it into SYSTEM/APP since it will ask to overwrite a version of itself if it is already there. To change the permissions just long press, choose permissions, then click the appropriate boxes to make it have the correct permissions before placing it in.

Pasting to /system and Changing permissions shouldn't be needed.
And if it is..boot into recovery, go to advanced, and fix permissions

[Q] Wrong device model

After flashing some roms my device changed from xt1063 to xt1068 and i think this is giving me the error when executing updater binary when flashing roms.How can i change it back to 1063?

You can use something like ES Explorer and go to device/system, touch build.prop and open it with ES Note Editor. Scroll down to the line ro.product.model and edit that line to read XT1063.

Flash a recovery for your device.
Or
Add the line in build.prop
or extract your ROM.zip edit update script (meta-inf/google/android/updater-script) and remove the device check lines, re zip and flash

didnt work :/

the model name is present on the build.prop file
it ROM must have that file, so if now your devices tink is any other name is just a name does not mean a thing, wen you try to flash other rom that rom will came with its on build.prop and will show the device name that is on that build.prop.
I dont see the problem you are mistaking things.:good:
but if you wanna to change try like other have told you... see pic you can set any name really will not change a ting.
how you can see my dont say XT****, wen i open app that show device model it show exactly what is on build.prop

Just Wipe ur /system/ directory and clean flash a new ROM (cm 12.1) , THis way ur build.prop is going to be wiped (as we are wiping /system ) and get recreated when u flash ur new ROM , Therby resoring the Original Build.prop
