[Script] WiFi Only (great for inactive devices)

Thanks:
Scary Alien for helping with some of my brainstorms
CPCookieMan for pointing me in the right direction with my initial thoughts for this project
MongooseHelix for the idea of the script vs a flashable zip
This is a very simple script that utilizes the radiooptions command to disable the radio but still allow use of WiFi. I wanted to make it to be run in init.d on startup but haven't successfully got it working that way yet so for now it can be run with script manager. This script can be run as follows:
1. Download the script and place it somewhere on your SD Card. (Maybe make a folder named Scripts to keep things organized)
2. Download Script Manager from the market.
3. Open Script Manager and navigate to where you saved the script then select the script.
4. Check the options for run as root and if you always use wifi only because you don't have service on your device check off Run at boot as well.
5. When prompted by superuser allow superuser permissions.
I have tested this script on my Incredible and my Eris as well and should be universal to run on any android device.
Download Here
If you are using this on an inactive device and don't want the activation screen coming up after reboot and new ROM flash follow these simple steps.
*NOTE: you need to be using a ROM that has EPST.apk (Sense or stock based) in it for this procedure to work.
1. Select emergency call and dial ##778.
2. Select edit and enter service password 000000.
3. Select NAM Settings.
4. Change Mobile Directory number to 0000000000 (Ten digits).
5. Change MIN1 to 0000000 (Seven digits).
6. Change Mobile Country Code to 000 (Three digits).
7. As you back out "Commit the Change".

The guy that made super charger script has a script that can be ran with gscript and used to modify the init file which is supposed to change it so you can run scripts on boot. I think its only for stock roms tho.

Interesting.... this means once my daughter gets her upgrade I can retire my fabulous old Eris and turn it into a PDA and no longer use it as a phone? Sweet! Now I have to strip it all down to be a good mp3 player+.

I'm wondering if it could be done by adding the commands in the init.rc file inside the boot image instead of an int.d script. I think the reason it's not working the way I have it setup so far is that it requires su permissions in order for the command to take effect. I'm still researching other ways but for now this method does work

I think so, especially for those of us wanting to build ROMs that give our Eris's a second life as a non-phone touch device.
I know i've been wanting to try my hand at building a ROM like that, just waiting to upgrade in a month as my cell is the only phone i've got, just in case something bad happens to it

Hey, just wanted to say thanks. I don't have a use for this at this time but I can definitely imagine I'll have a use for it eventually!

Whenever I take advantage of my upgrade, I'll be sure to give this a try on my Eris. Right now it's my primary device though. Still, great idea CS!

Works great on my rebuilt Eris ..Thanks CS

Added procedure to permanately disable activation screen for non-activated phones to OP.

Just what i was looking for after i activate the new incredible 2! Awesome work!

so exactly what might happen if i run this script on ancm7 rom that does not have the EPST.apk file?

It will work fine without EPST. EPST is needed for ##778 to work for disabling the activation screen. The script itself does not require that apk, it uses the radiooptions command.

I don't have radiooptions in my /system/bin...
But you said it should be universal on any Android device? Do I need a certain version of busybox installed?

[How To] (video) Supercharge Ice Cream Sandwich!!!

EDIT: This doesn't work on ODEX ROMs! That would be stock ROMs, as most custom ROMs are deodexed. If it is an odex ROM, you can do the mod, but you have to do it manually (the web app doesn't work). Check out the second post in the supercharger thread for a how-to. But if you are on a custom ROM the method in the video will work!
Alright, so I have been reading about how to supercharge ICS for awhile, but the process looked daunting. However I figured it out, and it works great! This will work on ANY ROM, so try it out!
I have been using this for awhile, and it's just super smooth. I've been using it a lot lately, and it hasn't given me a bit of lag yet! It's just gone!
What is V6?
V6 supercharger is a script that manages the RAM memory. This makes multi-tasking much faster, and it knows when to kill off apps that are taking a lot of RAM. This makes your phone a lot faster and more efficient!
Here is the person who made the script: V6 Supercharger
Here is a dl link to the script: DOWNLOAD LINK
I'm in! So... How Do I Do this?
Well I made a video for you:
Here are instructions:
1. Download the supercharger script from the link above and put it on the root of your SD card.
2. Get an app called script manager from the market. It's free. Open it up and click on the supercharge script from the list of what's on your SD card. Click the SU button, then hit run.
3. Go through the setup. Set scrolling speed to 1. When they ask if you want to integrate it into the system, say yes. You will get to a list of about 30 options after a little bit.
4. Select number 6 (I know I said 7 in the video, but 6 has better multitasking) for this phone, and hit enter. It will go through a whole bunch of stuff.
5. It will ask you to superclean and restart. SAY NO. You'll do that inn a minute. Just hit the home button.
6. Open the browser on your phone and go to : android.mimic.ca and hit the upload button. There will be a popup, select root explorer (Install it if you don't have it already). Go into system/framework/ and select the services.jar file. It will take you back to the website. Hit upload. The page will reload. Now select the CMW flashable zip option and download it. Go to root explorer and move that to the root of your SD card.
7. Reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvic, then flash the zip. Reboot. Done! Enjoy the speedieness!

Let me know what ya think!

Alright, so enough questions have been asked that I should start giving answers to them here.
Q. Do I need to re-flash the file in recovery if I want to make changes?
A. Not if you make changes to the the supercharger script (ie. change options). The only time you have to flash it is if you upgrade/change ROMs. Just remember to make a new one, and don't flash the old file!
Q. Isn't option "X" better/faster/easier on battery?
A. Play around with them and see what works for you. I like option 6. Not too aggressive, but it still keeps control. Just use the options that are for your phone (ie 512HP for this phone because it has that much RAM. So option 5, 6, or 7). I also use the nitro-lagnullifier. It makes things even faster!
Q. Does it affect battery life?
A. Yes, in a good way! I get better battery life.
Q. How do I know if it worked??
A. Open up script manager, and go to the supercharger file. let it run, and once you get to the menu with all the options, it will tell you if you are supercharged or not right below that.
Those were the most commonly asked questions. If they don't answer your questions then post 'em!

battery life
so this looks promising but how does it the effect on battery life with ICS.

works great... noticeable difference

This shouldn't hurt the battery. I used to use it on my Epic fairly often especially once the Gingerbread leaks started coming out. There are several different routes to go with the script too. It can also be used to improve multitasking such as when you have multiple apps open at once.

thanks for the quick tut. I was gonna try using it on aokp as well, then i saw ics you had to do something extra and i just stopped looking into it lol - It's much easier than i expected.
Btw rocket, you should try the touch cwm recovery personally I think it's easier to navigate and use

I looked into it awhile ago, and it was even more complicated. The web app made it really easy.
I'll try the touch recovery out. I'll flash it through fastboot in a bit. I'm just used to this one from my EVO.

Sorry I don't. I just use custom ROMs!

Thanks for the writeup and video. I tried this on my Evo a while back, but the thread was huge and difficult to navigate.
Just ran the script, so we'll see how it goes.

can someone please explain to me why in the instructions it says for me to upload my services.jar file to this guy's website???? That just seems very fishy!!
Why can't we patch the file locally??? Why does your server have to do it for me when an app could easily be written to do it without me uploading my services.jar to some random website I don't trust!

You can patch it manually. Check out the link in the OP. However, it requires unziping the file, opening it in notepad++, editing the code, zipping it back up, putting it back in the phone, and editing some stuff with terminal emulator. It's a bit over most people's heads, and the website makes it easy by making the patched services.jar a flashable zip.
If you want to do it, be my guest. It's all in the second post of the supercharger thread.

I have only used it on custom ROMs. The web app doesn't work for odex ROMs (stock), but it will work on custom ROMs. Try one of them out, it should work then. just titanium backup, flash new ROM, and restore backup. Won't loose your apps!

I can confirm this is working on the cyberg rom...my min ram is 144mb now under performance setting...my phones seems snappier now!

[ShellScript] AndroidFilesInstaller.sh by Adrian DC

Hi everyone !
There's now a lot of features.
Read the webpage to get more informations.
Would you like to install files on Android quickly and with securities? Then read this..
Here are some previews of an earlier version :
This script will run with SManager SManager (ScriptManager),
which is a free and easy to use application for Android.
Before doing anything to the Android system files,
it is obviously highly recommended and adviced
to have a backup in case the files aren't compatible.
Please see the recoveries softwares specific to your phone.
I cannot guarantee this script will work for everyone,
I even know it won't work for everyone because each phone is different
and given the various versions of android and custom roms,
the shell and busybox may not be the same.
You'll need the root permissions to run this script,
I avoided it to run unless it gets root permissions.
busybox also has to be installed (both often go together).
I use busybox 1.20 on my SONY ICS 4.0.3 ROM for the SE Xperia Arc S.
List of phones confirmed to be working with this script :
- Sony Ericsson Xperia S - Android ICS
You can download the script and get infos here :
> http://arcsgatebyadriandc.comze.com/androidfilesinstaller.html
You can find more on this thread of the french Android website and forum :
[Infos] Modifications de la ROM SONY ICS Officielle on PhonAndroid
Thanks for taking interest in this script.
You may contact me to report a bug or ask for a functionality,
or even to say it works fine xD
Have a good day !

I added some nice features in the v7 :
- Automatic AndroidFilesInstaller.sh on sdcard search and replace to update quickly
- Some securities added to the transfert of files.
- Folders with spaces in the name now work too

But I'd like you to test it before.
Could you get online when you can, or send me a PM?

ADC
EDIT : So.. Did a lot of things on the script to make it even more clean.
\n are gone, that's sure. Other possible problems are gone too.
Many improvements and securities added.
I've put all user available variables at the beginning of the script.
It's all more dynamic and adaptive.
Works perfectly for me and a friend using other Android versions.
The script now also request SManager.
If SManager isn't detected or Root access not given,
you won't be able to run the script. It'll stop at the beginning.
This version 8 is online and available, let me know !
ADC

The v17 of AndroidFilesInstaller.sh will handle complete folders installation from the v16,
aswell as a new security to avoid installation if the file wasn't properly copied to the system,
for example when the available memory space is unsufficient.

Hey !
The problem mainly comes from an incomplete linux shell,
and this comes because of an incomplete version of busybox and / or superuser.
Try updating the su binary, and using an other busybox, such as 1.19.4 (as you did, works great for me..).
Bye !

Hmm, SU is up to date. I re-installed Busybox three times with the app from the market. Hmmm...

The released online script didn't change for a while, therefore it can only be because of faulty busybox..
Various users had the problem, only answer I can tell is try to find a working busybox,
it would seem some are wrong or not entirely installed....

Strange, I installed my ROM hundred times. It worked always.

[Q] Multiboot - Share apps between ROMS?

Hello,
I wanted to know if there's any way to "share" the apps installed on each ROM so I don't have to be installing them each time I add a new ROM. I've searched the forums and I only found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872742 which is quite old and things might have changed by now. I also understand that I won't be able to share *every* app as some of them are Froyo/GB/ICS/JB specific.

Real to Virtual :
You can browse /fshook/mounts/data/apps to find the apps in real system. However TB is the best way to go.
Virtual to Real :
In terminal emulator,
Code:
su
mkdir -p /data/local/mnt/data
mount -o loop -t ext3 /mnt/sdcard/multiboot/<Vfs name>/data.img /data/local/mnt/data
Then you can browse /data/local/mnt/data for apps. After completing installing,
Code:
su
umount /data/local/mnt/data

Thank you very much royale1223! I thought about TB but I wanted to know if there was any other method. I presume that if I go to /fshook/mounts/data/apps in the VS I will able to install them in the VS or will I be able to run then directly?

to be honest,
i never used kitchen to make my rom,
i had to code the updater script manually,
@OP.
you need to study the codes first and know what you are doing,
you can't build a house without proper procedures, same with ROM building,
you must learn to research and be patient when you fail,
it happens all the time,
in most instances the phone won't boot and what i always do is to go back and think over what went wrong and what must i do to resolve the issue,
we can help you as much as you can but please try to help yourself understand the situation a bit more.

Thanks for motivating me. I know what is the problem now. I did not mount /system before flashing?. Added that to my script... All working fine now.

How the heck could you create ROMs before kitchen was made .. Eh? Its a matter of bash and edify... No kitchen needed.
