With Froyo, bootscreen has change location. Now it's system/customize/resources. The problem is that you can't overwrite it, it's protected...... If anyone knows how to fix it .....

If your rooted download Root Explorer (£2.50) from the market, copy bootanimation.zip to SD card then move it to the correct folder using Root Explorer. (mine's is in /data/local) I'm using Pinky Desire v1.3 ROM

works once but cant change the one i push now lol

Have a look inside the file, some bootimages are flashable, some have to be pushed. And if the folder structure is wrong/old in the ones to flash it won't work - extract bootanimation.zip and push it.

yea and how we know its pushable or flashable bootscreens ...

[Guide] Expanding the limit of multitouch points (root needed)

Let's cut the crap. Seems like somebody on a Chinese forum figured out the way to apply the mod to MM2. I just translate it into English.
1. Download the attachment and unzip milestone2_more.ko to the root of sd
2. mount /system/ r/w
3. copy milestone2_more.ko to /system/lib/modules/
4. open terminal emulator
5. input the following command
su
chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/milestone2_more.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/milestone2_more.ko touch_num=6
(the guy said if you choose a number greater than 6 the system will crash)
now you should get a 6-point-multitouch
original thread: http://bbs.gfan.com/android-1997547-1-1.html

Thank you soooooooo much! )))

Works but MT is still buggy...

oh my god.. thank you, it works.
5 is more than enough

OMG!! You made my day!

Is this permanent? Or it'll go away when we reboot?

It will go away when you reboot, but its not a big deal to use the command again

Just make a init.d script to load it up when the system boots and you won't have to worry about it again..

Just did this, but I think i wrote it wrong. Please correct me
I created a blank file and wrote inside it:
insmod /system/lib/modules/multitouchfix.ko (I replaced the name)
And saved the file as 99multitouchfix inside /system/etc/init.d/
I also fixed permissions for both files

Nope. The module works, but not the init.d script

you can use autostart from Market

Try this script:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# Load 5 finger multitouch module
insmod /system/lib/modules/defy_more.ko
Also note that the first touch after reboot is delayed.

I'll try that as soon as my M2 wakes up, long day for it today =P

Actually,the patch is developed by korean , the XDA thread is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1162327
Autoload after reboot: copy install-recovery.sh to /system/etc and set rwxr-xr-x .
If you wanna change the touch point limit , open install-recovery.sh with text editor , change the number that follows "touch_num=". The range is 1~10.
My own test shows more than 6 touch points will NOT lead to system crash , but make it back to 2 points...orz. Since the same patch on D2/D2G/DEFY enable up to 10 points, why
m2 cound not
Ah, forgot to say , the autoload patch is ported from http://bbs.gfan.com/android-1997547-1-1.html

Neither autostart or init.d script worked. Going to try the install recovery

Did you set the permission properly，both milestone2_more.ko and install.sh.

All works fine, both the milestone2_more.ko and the install recovery, no problem at all, have 4 MT points now

[OUTDATED GUIDE]Make Custom Rom Easier Than Cycling

Things you need:
Base firmware (i'm use Gingerbread S5830SERKPH 2.3.4)
Windows (I'm use windows 7 X64 service pack 1)
Linux (Ubuntu recommended)
And the last thing is, You need enough experience in android world
step-step :
Flash your phone with your desired base firmware.
Make required modifications at your phone.
After that, do hard reset to your phone.
Next back up system.rfs .
put system.rfs with boot.img, data.rfs, recovery.img from PDA base firmware in one folder.
After that, repack your custom rom.
what should we do to modify it :
Remove useless widgets
Add more apps
Change theme
How to back up System.rfs :
Download at market "terminal emulator"
next run this code:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/stl12 of=/sdcard/system.rfs
How to hard reset your phone :
Move by root explorer your modification apps to system/app then change permission like this :
Code:
User:Read, Write
group:Read
Others:Read
Next change the owner to "root" by root explorer
At least boot into recovery mode "HOME+POWER" and choose "wipe data/factory reset" be sure your contact data already backup
How to repack your custom rom :
PDA by running this code via terminal at linux:
Code:
tar -H ustar -c boot.img recovery.img data.rfs system.rfs >> ROMNAME.tar
md5sum -t ROMNAME.tar >> ROMNAME.tar
mv ROMNAME.tar ROMNAME.tar.md5
change ROMNAME to your desired, of course, ROM name.
If you want to build One-Package ROM, just use 1st and 2nd command and don't forget to include all files on all *.tar.md5 (such as modem, csc, apboot) like this :
Code:
tar -H ustar -c *.* >> ROMNAME.tar
md5sum -t ROMNAME.tar >> ROMNAME.tar
How to change your rom name :
At root explorer you see at folder system "build.prop"
Open it in text editor edit "ro.build.display.id=GINGERBREAD.XXKPH" with your rom name
Another Handy Modification Guide:
How to edit system.rfs on your Pc :
importan : if you want to edit system.rfs at windows, DON'T use Magic Iso, why? because i was use it, then my system.rfs corrupt.
you must have linux (ubuntu recommended)
run it from terminal :
Code:
sudo mount -o loop system.rfs /some_dir
make required modification
then Unmount it
How to Unpacking & repacking the image :
Note: below I give you the details for unpacking and repacking manually, but I have attached two perl scripts that do most of this for you
If you are good with a hex editor, you can open up any of these images and strip off the first 2k of data. Then, look for a bunch of zeroes followed by the hex 1F 8B (which is the magic number of a gzip file). Copy everything from the first line of the file, through the zeroes, and stopping at the 1F 8B. That is the kernel. Everything from the 1F 8B through the end is the ramdisk. You could save each of these files separately. In order to see the contents of the ramdisk, you need to un-gzip it and then un-cpio it. You could use a command like this (ideally after creating a new directory and cd'ing into it):
Code:
gunzip -c ../your-ramdisk-file | cpio -i
That will place all of the files from the ramdisk in your working directory. You can now edit them.
In order to re-create the ramdisk, you need to re-cpio them and re-gzip those files, with a command like the following (remember, cpio will include everything in the current working directory, so you probably want to remove any other cruft you might have in there):
Code:
find . | cpio -o -H newc | gzip > ../newramdisk.cpio.gz
The final step is to combine the kernel and your new ramdisk into the full image, using the mkbootimg program (which you should download and compile from the git repository):
Code:
mkbootimg --cmdline 'no_console_suspend=1 console=null' --kernel your-kernel-file --ramdisk newramdisk.cpio.gz -o mynewimage.img
Now, there's a lot of hassle in pulling apart files in hex editors and remembering all of these commands, so I wrote unpack and repack perl scripts for you (attached). Hooray.
How to Manually deodex your phone :
What you'll need:
xUltimate v2.2
Unzip xUltimate v2.2, and launch "Main.exe"
If everything goes well xUlt should recognize the phone and make a connection. You now should see a list of options.
Run option 1. After option 1 is done, run option 2.
Now these well take a while. Run option 3.
IMPORTANT: After you have run option 3, you MUST navigate to the xUltimate folder and find "origi_frame" folder, and delete "guava.odex". It's a bad file, and interferes with deodexing process.
Now run option 4, and wait.
Exit xUltimate, and put the phone in USB mass storage.
Go back into the xUltimate folder and copy "done_frame", and "done_app", and move them to the root of the sdcard.
Put the phone in PC mode
Open a command prompt, and do the following:
Code:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
reboot
Your phone should now be deodexed!
You may notice an increase in speed, and you now have the ability to edit certain files with greater effects.
How to change bootanimation :
using a Root explorer goto the /system/media directory.
Copy bootanimation.zip to your SD Card.
Connect your droid to your computer with usb and mount the SD Card
Copy bootanimation.zip to your computer.
extract bootanimation.zip to a folder
Inside you will find 2 folders with all the individual PNG files in them.
With photoshop or paint modify the png files to add your custom graphics, OR make/download your own pictures. (Make sure they are match with your phone device)
Highlight the two folders and the desc file.
Right click the highlighted files.
Select add files to archive.
Select Zip check box
In the compression method drop down box select Store. (this is key if you dont do this it wont play the animation)
save the archive as bootanimation.zip
copy the new bootanimation.zip to your SD Card
Select the bootanimation.zip file from your SD Card and move it... system>media>paste

# Uncomment the following line and set your desired value.
echo 4 > /sys/module/synaptics_i2c_rmi_1564/parameters/sensitivity
You must create init.d folder with this file inside .Install scriptmanager apk.(Give it su permissions and run at boot.)
The second way is to find a patch named icsaddon2 .(you can install it via cwm recovery.After Look on init.d folder for a file 'synaptic '. and change with text editor the value from 4 to 7 or 8.(delete #)
I thing it will works.

[GUIDE][ALL DEVICES + ALL ROMS] How To Add Init.d Support To Rom/Kernel

What is init.d ?
Init.d is a feature which allows you to run brunch of scripts at boot . Thats really useful while you want to set values which reset at boot or run/do any thing at every boot or install tweaks , engines and....
There are some ways to add this feature to you rom but always best way is to add init.d support directly by your kernel . I want to help you to do this
Requirements
1- Ability to unpack boot.img & ramdisk
2- Some basic linux shell knowloedge
3- Having Busybox located in /system/bin/busybox at your rom
Step 1: Making kernel ready
1- Unpack kernel then ramdisk
2- Open Init.rc with a text editor
3- Add this codes at the end , before the paragraph which there is "stop bootanim" command in it :
Code:
service sysinit /system/bin/sysinit
oneshot
4- Save , Exit and repack ramdisk and boot.img
Step 2 : Making Rom Ready !
1- Open /system/bin/sysinit
2- Add this codes :
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
export PATH=${PATH}:/system/bin:/system/xbin
chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d/*
logwrapper busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d/
3- Set permissions of sysinit to 777 or 755 ( rwxrwxr-x | rwxrwxrwx )
4- Make a directory at system/etc and name it init.d
Now you have init.d support !

Reserved for future changes !
