[Howto] Check fugumod convert, partition swap, data2sd, ZipAlign...

These place where you can find out the information that you want, and verify that your phone was config correctly:
Fugumod convert and init:
- /sdcard/android/data/fugumod/fs.current
- /fugumod.log
- /res/pre-init.log
- ADB or terminal command: mount
App2sd:
- /data/misc/app2sd/app2sd.log
Swap:
- /data/misc/app2sd/swap.log
- ADB or terminal command: free
ZipAlign:
- /data/zipalign.log

Good idea.
There is also /res/user.log : this log is created by the post-init script and contains the output infos of the init.d scripts.
/fugumod.log : contains infos when converting filesystems

Thanks your great help, the file also include the execution ordered of init.d files. I didnt notice it before

Thx
An overview where to find all mods and roms would be very nice also.
I get lost in here, so much info and things to know for an experienced beginner as me ;-)

[ee03] add init.d support

I managed to get init.d working on the EE03 leak but it broke logcat, I switched to the no-op scheduler and it seems to be quite a bit more responsive =p
I wish I could post how I did it but xda thinks a file path is an outside link and wont let me submit it...
Is this useful at all? I don't know much about android but I'm a linux nerd by profession

Makes sense that noop i/o would be more responsive as it's designed for flash memory devices. Init.d is supported by default in cm7 and it's always handy to have it around for keeping things out of the original init.<device>.rc without having to recompile initramfs.
All you need is 10 posts and you'll be able to post whatever you need.
You can also use the 'CODE' tags to paste paths, etc.

init.d was enabled via the initramfs in the kernel. Scrips go in /system/etc/init.d - and have on every ROM with initscripts enabled.
Thanks for the tip on the scheduler - feel free to play around with the other settings. Have a look at the tweaks thread for some possibilities.

/system/bin/sh can't parse if [ <x> ] statements...
the block in twilightzone.sh that says
<code>
if [ -d /etc/init.d ]
then
run-parts /etc/init.d
fi
</code>
should be changed to
<code>
/sbin/busybox [ -d /etc/init.d ] && /sbin/busybox run-parts /etc/init.d
</code>
thanks for all your hard work man
also the updater-script has to set everything in /etc/init.d to 755 - it doesn't in ee03

I wasn't aware init.d support was there until after I wrote the script.

oh haha
I changed /system/bin/sh to point to busybox... the only thing it seems to break is logcat =\
before I did this nothing in /etc/init.d worked, if I did
/sbin/twilightzone.sh
it wouldn't run /etc/init.d but if I did busybox sh /sbin/twilightzone.sh it did
I probably broke a lot of other stuff doing this too but it's working well so far.
while I have someone knowledgeable here, is it possible to extract/repack the zImage? I'm assuming either ACS did that or used an older 2.2 kernel

[TUT][MOD] FuguTweaks, feel the smoothness of Nexus S

Original thread here. Give thanks to nikademus
This tweak adds responsiveness on the phone. What it does is replace app_process and system_server binaries by the ones found in android 2.3.3_r1 or 3.1 (v0.2)
Note that those binaries have been compiled by me from google official source.
This has been qualified by supercurio as a taste of the Nexus S 2.3.3 smoothness.
It will not make your battery last longer or the opposite. Neither will it improve quadrant benchmarks.

Click to collapse
As described above, this tweak will adds responsiveness on the phone, so our device will runs smoother than usual. Also, I'm just found that this tweak will reduce lockscreen-lag yeah I can feel the difference.
This tweak is tested by me on KPN + CF-Root but I'm sure it working on other ROM/firmware, as well as Froyo.
Do this as your own risk!
Always make backup before proceed!​
To install, just download one of the file at the link below then flash with CWM (don't forget to mount /system).
Pick one, no need to use them all...
Download v0.1: Download now - currently I'm using this one
--v0.2 REMOVED. It's troublesome.
Manual install & backup:
With any root file manager, goto /system/bin and mount as R/W, backup the following files to your sdcard: app_process, system_server
Copy FuguTweak files (app_process and system_server) to /system/bin, replace the current one.
Set permissions to rwxr-xr-x (755) then change owner to:
Owner = 0 - root | Group = 2000 -shell
Reboot.
Changelog in the original thread.
0.1 = all files taken from 2.3.3 AOSP
0.2 = app_process only, taken from 3.0 AOSP
If your Ace went wrong:
Revert back any changes you've made with this flashable-zip:
Backup KPN
PS: ROM makers, would you give me a proper credit? because I've tested this awesome tweak on SGA

Up to you, because Blackhawk is gingerbread ROM, you can use both

great share.. you using the first or second version?

I've been looking for CWM for the Ace for the last 3 days with no luck . Where did you [guys] geddit?
EDIT: nvm, I think I got it.
Hopefully...

Right! It's Fla.sh X2 "secret" tweak which I've mentioned before

Download v0.1: = CWM recovery
Download v0.2: = root explorer
is above correct fla.sh?
and we can choose any above or do we have to do both (for gingerbread stock)?
thanks!

What do you mean by change owner?

Actually this menu can be found in Root Explorer... linux command: chown

consegregate said:

In linux systems permissions and ownership are assigned to owner, group and others .To get a particular thing to work you have to set right permissions and ownership.For ownership there is chown command and permissions chmod command.
Coming back to the topic you can change ownership by root explorer .Long press the required file and from the popup menu choose the last option-Change Owner
and change Owner = 0 - root | Group = 2000 -shell
.

Nice..
Another Brilliant Tut for our beloved fellow SGA Users..
Thanx a Lot.!

[MOD] [SGA-Only!] Improve your Touchscreen

Hey guys,
this is still no kernel, it will only optimize your values for touchscreen using The most important thing in this script is the following line:
touch.pressure.scale = 0.001
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On my SGS and the SLC is this the best one. Maybe you can try whats working for you as the best and tell it to me so that i can share the best result. I hope the script is now supported by the SGA, i modified it from Galaxy SLC working device... Please give me your feedback.
Can someone of the good Devs from this device tell me if this config is supported by the SGA kernels? Sure it is, but i don´t know under which name

What do you mean by 'optimize'?
It gives more accuracy, performance or smoothness?

Installed.
The touch looks just a little more sensitive, but the orientation have apparent speed incrase i think

When You Gonna back to BB SGA project?

[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 !

Pls tell me about this '' init'' on my supersu dialog box...
It's my first time to see this and I don't know what is this for?
Is this harmful? Or very important not to loose it...
Educate me... I really don't know what is is for...
... What? why? how?
Thanks much!
