[MOD]Droid Bionic Mod for init.d(For Stock)

This Mod will allow for init.d scripts to run, including the CWM recovery script from PowerBoost.
Currently integrated in DroidTh3ory's [R3]BLURR3D V1.7 PBX rom, but I updated my zip to work with any Rom including Stock Rooted .
Requirements:
You must be rooted and CWM through Rom manager installed.
PLEASE UNINSTALL bionic bootsrapper (it will not allow you to activate boot into CWR on every boot script)
Install Directions:
I updated the unthrottle script to run the mods in the right spot, I will update it further but it does work. Unzip onto you SDCARD not sdcard-ext
Next flash stock_initMod.zip through CWM recovery and then run all scripts that you want from powerboost including the CWM on every boot.
Last open menu.sh with script manager as root, and follow directions on screen. The selections will have DroidTh3ory's rom listed but it will work on any rom as long as you unzip this into /sdcard/.
Credit:
Thanks to navendrob, I edited his X2 version of the mod to get this one working.
DroidTh3ory for using it in his current roms which are really smooth.
Most init.d scripts will work by copying and pasting into /system/etc/init.d/ folder, but I can only get the CWR reboot tweak to work by using the script from unthrottle something due to permissions I think.

Ccan you please explain whathecript does,in layman's terms.
Thanks

I think voltage or overclocking using android terminal but I could be wrong.

Well it may not be laymans term, but it adds a couple of files that motorola left out. Probably on purpose. One file calls busybox if you have it installed in the default location, and the other allows the preinstall script to run. The reason Cwm recovery would not boot up everytime is because the file /data/.recovery_mode is automatically created and deleted upon booting via bootstrap. If you flash this you will be able to run the init.d script for cwm recovery which will add the .recovery file back after rebooting. Its hard to explain but just flash it and run the powerboost script and you will see the difference even on the other init.d mods.

thanks will give a go

after I flash this how do I turn on the "reboot to CWM" on every recovery?
Never mind I figured it out and am now set to boot into CWM.

So, OP, does this make all the mods run? Does it correct the unthrottle folder as well? If so, I'm in...
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium

Are the updated scripts in the unthrottled folder or a new location because I ran the scripts again from the unthrottled folder and most scripts/mods don't seem to be working.

FYI... Everything has now been streamlined in a special version of Powerboost being fully incorporated into 1.6. Nothing is required of the user other than selecting your mod.

I flashed this and installed the script cwm on every boot, it worked on a couple power off/on. I then had it go into battery mode on accident while powering off and on and leaving it plugged into power and it wont boot into cwm anymore. Going to try and flash and install again.
Doh just read theories post, guess it doesn't matter now....

didn't get the error from powerboost after I flashed this, but still not booting CWM we will get there eventually
EDIT: I actually had to copy the unthrottle folder into the sdcard/ directory because that's where powerboost was looking for it...before that, I would just get an error that the files didn't exist

I thought that was already understood. Im glad to hear droidth3ory got it figured out. My way works just as well im sure. I use a reboot method i.e. quickboot or similar and do not turn power on off manually so i did not test that way.

Glad to hear you got it sorted out. My method works as well incase something goes awry. I did notice a usb connection to pc lag that I only experienced in1.5. Has anyone else experienced this or maybe my device is getting slower lol. This started on a fresh install of 1.5 without even using powerboost by the way.

Stock Bionic Rom?
Will this work on stock bionic rom? I have already run an enable init.d script and it created the init.d folder and settings are sticking if I do a "Hot Reboot" but not if I do a full reboot. This issue has been driving me crazy, since I had it working on the DX but not now.
If this will work on stock, I would be happier than a dog with 2 peters!

is this supposed to dowload as attachment.php?? or is my computer bugging right now?? lol

Best way to speed up my stock 8.9 i957?

I have a stock 8.9 that's pretty slow. It even freezes sometimes. Is there anything I can do to speed it up?

Look to install ICS or Jb. Works like a charm

Check the development section. Im working on CM10 now (the 31-10 build), which has JB. No problems. I just wanna say, read before you do, just to close out some problems.
Maybe its easier if you ask your problems and someone can answer

I so depend on my tablet that I don't want to try it without knowing what I'm doing. If I run into problems and can't use it I'll be screwed.
I have an i957 so the steps are a little different I think. Is that what you have?

Hmm, i just followed the steps in the CM10 and its working. I have a p7310 model...

The steps are the same. I have an i957 and am running the cm 10 from nrvate. Just make sure you have a Rom specifically for the i957. Very happy with the Rom. You can find it in the i957 development section.

I must be dense. I don't see the steps!
This is all I see:
Use TWRP, factory reset and wipe /system if you are coming from another ROM. Don't forget to install google apps http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.ph...on/Google_Apps
And that doesn't tell me enough.....

Start by looking for instructions on how to install a recovery and root your device. CWM and TWRP are two recoveries, you'll use one of the two. These are flashed through Odin. Once you have a recovery installed then you can flash a rom through it. Make sure the Rom is specific for your device. Not any Rom will work and the wrong one will brick it. These are basic instructions and are only meant to show you what to look for on the forums. The forums have "stickies" where a lot of this basic information can be found.
The galaxy sII General forum had some good stickies that can help. Read and 're-read them until you'll comfortable.

Oh boy. I think I did it. I flashed TWRP through ODIN. With CM10 from nrvate do I just point TWRP to the file and that's it?

Wipe system, cache and dalvik cache. Then point twrp (install) to the rom. Then install the gapps and then reboot.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

What about Google Apps? Where do I get that?
When I wipe does that remove all of my apps and info??!?

No it doesn't remove your apps, but I'd back those up first just in case. The gapps package should be found where you found the Rom.
Ps factory reset will delete your apps.

Ugh. I just flashed and rebooted from TWRP. I get the Samsung screen and then a black screen and then nothing......
Just posted to to CM10 thread. Hopefully, it's an easy fix.

Give it sometime and then try re booting. If you can still get to twrp you can restore, you did a nandriod back up,right?
If that doesn't work you may be soft bricked. If so go to sammobile.com and down load the stock Rom and flash it through Odin. Hopefully you don't need that but it'll bring you back to where you started. But I hope you backed everything up. Because your tab will be like New again.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

I tried rebooting again and now I can get to the Cyanogenmod splash screen. It just sits there though....

That's a good sign, your not soft bricked. What version of twrp are you using? I'd try going back into twrp and wiping the cache and dalvik and then under advanced, fix the permissions and then reboot.

If that doesn't work then you'll have to do a clean install which means a factory reset. Back everything up first though with something like titanium backup pro.
Then do the factory reset, the wipes and install the Rom and gapps. After booting you'll have to resetup your Gmail account and then install titanium backup again Then you can restore your apps and data.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

Dang. That didn't work. I'm using TWRP 2.1.4.
Ok, I'll restore, then back up with Titanium and do what you said.
Thanks.

I know you can get this running on your i957 because I did. But I went through what your going through too. I'm using twrp 2.3.1.1. If you Google twrp i957 you see a goo.im download, get the .tar file. It will install over your twrp version thru Odin.
But I'm pretty sure the factory install will do the trick.

doubts about recovery

when i install rom manager, download and flash droid 3 recovery, why doesn't work? can look idiot, but i don't like safestrap because i can't flash any rom over stock. when i look at this, i see the stock that remains there like a loss of storage space.
i wanna flash roms over the others. like i've always done with my other phones.
so, could somebody help me pleeease! with links, tips, etc .. thanks!

I believe you need to install and run droid 3 bootstrap, before using rom manager

so, now i'm using milestone 3 bootstrap, modified by junior passos (0.83 from hashcode, if i'm not wrong). i've tried droid 3 bootstrap too (one with red icon). both works.
more one question: there is anyway of remove stock after a new rom flashed on slot-1/flash a new rom over stock, via safestrap 3.x?

[Q] Need help with Bionic, that has Safestrap 3.6 installed but no OS

I work at a cell fix shop and one of my customers brought in a Bionic that his son tried to root and ended up with Safestrap 3.6 installed but no OS. I have done OS fixes by completely wiping the phone and re-installing the stock OS but I would like to just be able to place the stock os in the stock os rom slot but I have no idea how or where to start looking for those files and I have tried searching here for them but I don't know what the official os is for this phone. Any help would be awesome, until this happened I had never even seen safestrap, and I have no idea how to use it and not the time to figure it out by myself. Thanks guys!

If I remember correctly I don't think your going to be able to because he wiped the system, you could try installing the deoxided stock and see

Ok so should I look then for "deoxided stock" for bionic? or is there a specific version # or something specific I should be looking for? Also if you happen to have a link to that it would be awesome

Here's a link
http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php?/topic/16256-[Bionic][MODs]-Deodex-&-1%-Battery-Mods-for-Stock-JB-98.72.22
But I did notice it's just the os not the system so I doubt it'll work. You could flash a stock based ROM like FlyingJelly and that should take but it would have tweaks and themes different from stock

FXZ that baby back to stock! I made an oopsie and that was the ticket. Restores file structure and bootloader, etc. Reinstall Safestrap.

[Q] how to install custom rom over the stock rom slot on safestrap kk?

I looked up and down but I dont see a trend on this I just want to make sure im doing it right so I dont brick my phone I made a back up of the stock rom. do I just wipe and flash the new rom over the stock rom slot?

Back up your stock rom first then factory reset in safestrap then flash . There are some videos on youtube about ss its older but it still works the same way . Just make sure your chosing the correct rom for your version .
Sent from my SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

personally i dirty flashed dynamickat from safestrap and havent had any issues, but to be safe you should back up the stock rom, and then just move the rom to the internal flash(as simple as dragging and dropping from windows) and then select it from the menu when you go to install, you can do a full wipe or you can see how a dirty flash works for you, just depends really

Read and read and follow directions to the "T" and you'll be fine. I backed up the stock rom first. Did the wipe in SS and then flashed the rom from from my sd card. Surprised how easy it was. I'm flashing like a mofo now lol. I always back up before flashing anything. Just my paranoia.

I just recently got root for official NC2 4.4.2. I want to flash Xnote12 port based off NC2 in the rom slot. Is this OK to do or no? I really don't want to mess with my stock slot. That's what got me in trouble and I ended up making the noobest mistake in wiping the stock slot with xnote12 and loading the JB xnote7 and my phone would not boot up. I ultimately had to send my phone to Samsung to fix it and they updated my firmware to the official NC2... (basterds).

I know I was real slow and wasnt thinking at that point in time But im not that slow. I flashed the JB bootloader ap and bl files before I booted the JB rom in the stock slot. Apparently the rom slots will not boot if the stock slot has no system. I didnt know that. Had I known I would be in a better circumstance with my xnote12. But thats neither here nor there. NC2 is rooted so im good. I just want xnote12 back Without wiping my true NC2 on stock slot. It appears hashcode hasnt got the stock slots working for kitkat yet tho...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51572014 i know you dont wanna touch stock slot but maybe you get the itch to flash xnote12 again. Link provided will get you back up and running if you mess up(hopefully not) again but it wont be stock nc2. You can still root it by installing the nc2 kernel and root with towelroot. This will come in handy for those oh sh!zzzt noments.

Can we use any other rom slots yet on the kk safestrap?
