Background (You can skip this if you want.)
Lots and lots and lots of research has gone into these scripts. Probably over 6 months. They are very well polished. I had done some emailing with a few Android engineers over at Sony as well and asked them what they thought about my main script, so thanks goes to them, for helping me out on a few things. I don't take all credit; credit is due where credit is due. I have changed, changed, and re-changed values, numbers, whatever, playing with what works and what doesn't, what helps and what doesn't.
If you want to, you can open them up in notepad++ and read the comments I added in as I researched what many of the functions did, some are interesting. These scripts save a heck of a lot of battery as well. I never get down to 30 percent or lower anymore unless I haven't charged for like 22 hours. I use my phone a lot. I run a business, I am constantly texting, using 3G and wifi, playing with new things, calling people, receiving calls, and listening to music.
Let me know if you have any suggestions, complaints, problems. Let me know what your results are. Do you notice a different? Or no?
Requirements
A box of donuts to mail to me (optional)
Busybox 1.18.4 (check this!! Market App "Busybox" will tell you)
init.d exploit by navenedrob
Gingerbread
Feautres
Remounts partitions for less overhead
Speeds up internet and tcp stack
Optimizes kernel and memory management
Reduces lagtime
ZipAligns your apks at boot up (takes about 1.5 seconds)
Sets proper priorities for processes--Fixes audio popping, cracklying, etc when playing music, receiving a phone call, etc.
Majorly reduces lagtime when using stock keyboard and swype
Dialer/call screen opens pretty much instantly when you receive a call
Deep sleeper agent that sets max cpu to 456mhz while screen off
Incorporates SuperCharger OOM groupings fix and memory settings
Installation (Please read entire section.)
Attached to this thread are two zip files. One is flashable, one is not. Do not try to flash the non-flashable one (why would you do this anyway?!?!).
You may flash the flashable one, -or- unzip the other and use a file manager like root explorer to copy to /system/etc/init.d. Just depends on your comfort level. Just be sure that if you copy manually, that you check the permissions.
Do not use kickass kernel, s00, or super charger with my scripts, as mine already contain what those do. Delete them before hand, or just flash the flashable zip and all will be good (it does the leg work for you).
To make sure it's working, reboot once or twice, then, navigate to /data using file explorer, scroll all the way down, and you should see "zipalign-dataapp.log." If you do, congratulations, everything is working properly, if not try the flashable zip.
Press thanks!
This is literally amazing. I CANNOT get my music to skip NO MATTER what I do to the phone! Before all I would only have to get on the web browser and the music would skip horribly!
My phone literally is amazingly fast now! Thank you SO much!
EDIT: I take back my original statement. Sometimes starting up programs does make the music skip, and when loading full heavy websites it sometimes skips.
This sounds promising, would a custom rom like Eclipse benefit from these changes also?

You flash the init.d hack in recovery like you would a ROM. Not sure on this, but I would imagine you run it from script manager.

flashing the init.d doesn't affect anything that I would notice?

1. Flash the latest init.d hack in recovery to create the init.d folder in system/etc & to edit the script that loads at boot up. The script directs the system to run whatever is in the init.d folder at boot.
2. Flash the o.p.'s flashable zip in recovery to put his script in the init.d folder that you just created with step#1.
Or, you can unzip the o.p.'s other file & use a file explorer to manually copy his script into the init.d folder. It just depends on your comfort level & personal preferences.
3. Reboot & you should reap the rewards of overmind's & navendrob's hard work.

Guys have to start reading before asking 20 questions. The initit.d hack will add /initial.d/ to your /system/. It will also load a default script into said folder. This hack allows the phone to run scripts in the initit.d folder on startup. No need for run at boot in script manager Anymore. Copy these to the same folder and get rid of the default script that came with init.d and these will be working for you. But please read before asking the same questions over and over... thanks for the awesome work overmind

thanks for the clarification. I just wasn't following all of this.
So flash this over Eclipse which I have running navendrob's hack v5 for maximum benefit correct?

Flashed this with Tenfars ClockworkMod recovery and in my /etc/init.d folder I have:

75zipalign
80DeepSleeper
98kickasskernel
99SuperCharger
S00tweks
This is correct I am assuming. If not what do others have? Phones running great. Deleted script manager.
How are your phones running everyone?? Let me know! Have you been getting better battery life? Does your phone fly? Or have you not noticed a difference at all?
Also, to answer the questions about which init.d hack, the latest works best. I have found that with the load pia hack (the first one he posted) the scripts were still running when you got to the lock screen. So just use the latest of his hack.
I'm really interested to know if this solves your audio popping and crackling when playing music, etc. please report on this. If not, there are some values I can modify. I know this was a big concern to users once they upgraded to Gingerbread (me included).
These scripts benefit every ROM.
ROM makers: Feel free to bake these in your roms, just be sure to give proper credit in your change log or whatever.
I apologize if any part of my instructions were not clear for any of you. I'd be happy to answer any questions anyone has. Using Swype right now and it's just flying through my words.

VERSION 1.0.1 WITH BUGFIXES:
Some people have had some trouble with the previous version of this app, so I have made some fixes. I'm pretty sure that if any of the problems that have been reported recur, it's because of the way VooDoo deals with disabling itself.
The link below is now to the current version.
Thanks again for everyone's patience and support!
Hi all.
I've just created my first Android app, and I hope the folks here might find it useful.
It has two functions:
1) it detects the presence or absence of the /sdcard/voodoo directory (and thus the presence or absence of Voodoo), and allows the user to toggle Voodoo on or off.
2) it allows the user to reboot, either a normal reboot or a reboot to recovery with a single button press.
Naturally, it requires root access.
I've found this is a pretty easy way to switch Voodoo on and off when flashing ROMs, kernels, and all that stuff.
I know there is something similar on the Market, but I wanted to make my own as a learning experience, and I also wanted a "Reboot to Recovery" button.
This one is also free, and the source is available on github (I'm sure my code sucks, but I honestly don't know why. If someone were to feel like explaining it to me, I'd sure appreciate it! ).
The usual installation procedures apply:
Method 1:
Download the file below to a location on your local computer in your $PATH and type:
adb install RebootButton.apk
Method 2:
Drop the file below to a location on your SD card and navigate to it using Astro, Root Explorer or another file manager (these are the two I use). In Astro, click on the file, then select "App Manager" then "Install"
In Root Explorer, select the file, then select "Install".
That's it.
Here it is:
http://www.zennmaster.com/Android/RebootButton.apk
I'll be sending this to the Market as soon as I can whip up an icon.
Suggestions and feedback are more than welcome!
I wish to sincerely thank all those very smart folks, around here and on IRC, for all the inspiration they didn't even know they were giving me, as well as all the cool toys that created the need for this app in the first place!
The application and the source code are both hereby released under the GPL.

The App won't uninstall Voodoo completely, it just creates and removes the correctly named file from the appropriate directory.
What sort of problems have you been having creating the disable_lagfix file?

So basically it just adds the disable_lagfix file in sdcard/voodoo folder?
Still someone will benefit from that.
So in practice hitting the voodoo off creates the file and places it on sdcard and reboot obviously reboots, wait 10 minutes and voila
Still thats two clicks and done, a nice move for the lazy or the ignorant not meant to be disrespectful, ignorant simple means lacking knowledge
Just installed but haven't used it yet.
Quick question (since i'm still new to all of this.) When rooting and installing lag fix on my SF a couple days ago, the instructions I followed did not include making a nandroid backup. If I use the app to disable lag fix, can I create a nandroid backup and then re-enable lag fix using the app?

AFAIK, the Voodoo kernels we know and love can only disable the lagfix by looking for that file.

Exactly.
To be honest, I think a lot of the trouble people around here have been having with disabling the lagfix has been with what essentially amounts to typos. Getting the file name wrong, or putting it in the wrong place will only lead to frustration and Voodoo enabled. Automating the process takes out a lot of opportunity for error. At the very least, like you say, two clicks and done is a lot less work.

The lit up buttons with no screen, and it doesn't reboot completely. Then I have to Odin a few times and redo the clean update quite a few times, get all the force closes, redo it all again, then it finally, magically, works. Those gremlins get me sometimes. Again, thanks for all this, I'll test it when my patience comes back and let you know.
This is useful. Thank you.
Hey Saps, a little off-topic I know but...where did you get the circle battery mod? I'm running bubby's Magic ASOP and I really like the black mod. I installed what was supposed to be just the circle mod from one of the themes but it gave me the whole theme. I like how yours apparently shows the "red,yellow,green" based on charge. How do I apply just that mod without changing bubby's black mods?
Getting Google "CLOUD" Music Sync working on the Fascinate (Froyo, not tested on 2.1)
Figured out how to get google music sync working on the fascinate and decided to share it with everyone!
Tested and working on DarkREVENGE v1 (and I assume v2) and Super Clean 2.8 however I suspect this will work on many roms and devices! doubt this will work on any 2.1 devices seeing as the APK is 2.2+ sorry for those of you running 2.1..
Now tested on MiUi Fascinate 1.2.25 and confirmed working!!
IMPORTANT: Your music must be set up like this sd/media/music if it is not located there it will not be uploaded to the cloud!
Known issue(s) You cannot manage your "cloud" just yet there is no web interface yet and i'm assuming this is still in the "testing" phase.
Now lets get to the fun!
Install this apk (adb push or install as a normal APK) make sure that Music.apk is deleted already if not go ahead and do that right now.

You should see "Music & "Jumpertest" after installing.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
go to account settings and to your google account you should now see "Sync Music" PRESS IT! and let it sync.
When that is done go into your app drawer and open up "Jumpertest" click on the "Controls" tab
Don't forget to click the "Accounts" tab and check off your gmail account it should ask for permissions (you will see an upside-down triangle with a !) in the status bar.
Next click on "Start Peer" it should work IF you do get an FC try reinstalling the apk or maybe rebooting IF you get a "authtoken error" go back into account settings and click on "Sync Music" again and try again!
(if all went well you should see "Peer started")
Next go ahead and click on "Import Local Media"
(once again if all went well you should see "Import complete")
Now that is all setup and time to access your music on the "CLOUD"
Go ahead and open up the Music app
Press the "Menu" softkey on your Fascinate to bring up the menu popup and select "Library Options" and after that select "Streaming Only"
(If you are not a complete newb or illiterate) you should now see your music that is on the cloud! Yay for clouds
If it did not work this means you are likely incapable of following directions that a five year old probably could and you should not have a rooted device!
However if it does not work and you are 9000% sure you did everything correct please list what rom you are on and method of installing the apk.
Hope you all enjoy and give me thanks if you found this helpful
If you can't take the harsh sarcasm (not really) in this post then please get off XDA and do not attack me on this thread.. do you guys not have anything better to do? if you have nothing good to say don't say anything at all! Thanks.

Was pretty fast for me and the perks are being able to access your music from the cloud and bigger storage space than an SD card if you don't mind moving your music collection in "waves" to your SD card as I said this is not final but it's working and working well until we get something more "official"

Hey "bro" why don't you lay off your high horse. DiGi is learning and progressing, not seeing anything come from you, but yet you want to sit here and say he has an attitude??
1. If you felt the need to look at this post (not being a mod) then this interest you, so shut it and if you dont like it, then move along.
2. IRC is a place for chat and learning hint the abbreviation "Internet Relay Chat". It doesn't say "yes were going to be nice to you and hold you hand", once again get off your high horse.
3. Quit being a **** on the forums, yeah you're cool. How about this, quit dishing hate on others work, unless you take time out to work on something your self, and then have tons of questions asked to you, and see how frustrating it becomes. I highly doubt he was being a "****" or "juvenile" about anything, it's just the way you seemed to take it.
At this time, there is not a way to get it from your desktop to the cloud. Seeing as how you are not even supposed to do this yet..... that feature has not been implemented lol
BTW, anyone calling digi bad names is a complete douche, I <3 digi, he has never acted like an ass or anything that I have EVER seen..

You would have to plug your phone into your PC, transfer the music to the proper folder you have setup for this app and then synch. All music in that folder will be uploaded to Google's servers so you can access it at anytime from the APP.

My wife and I both have X10's.
I'm running a custom rom and she is running the stock 2.2 (I believe it's 2.2, could be 2.1).
I tried to install an app on her phone and it said that she was out of space! She doesn't have a lot of apps on the phone, nor does she have a lot of junk on it....she has about 4 games, and not a lot else.
I rooted it and took off a few of the dumb things like Moxier mail and such but I couldn't see any way to see how much space she had and I can't figure out why she'd be out of space and I've downloaded a LOT more stuff than she has and I haven't gotten any warning....
Your wife is using stock 2.1 not 2.2 since its not out officially. There are lot of apps that can be removed from stock which i remember listed on a sticky thread (in app section u think) if you don't know what you are doing then id strongly suggest your wife to use erics Rom for 2.1

Yes I also had that on 2.1. When I got enough space some apps still won't install because it thinks there is not enough space. After you've removed a lot of apps (that will free up memory) it gets installed. You could try installing with Flashtool the .apk, I think that that will work.

Look in the Android Development forum, you will find there the EWJET rom, that's what he means.
Goodluck!

Yes I also had that on 2.1. When I got enough space some apps still won't install because it thinks there is not enough space. After you've removed a lot of apps (that will free up memory) it gets installed. You could try installing with Flashtool the .apk, I think that that will work.

Also possible, but if you say that tell him also what permissions !
You've to cross the permissions like this:
x x /
x / /
x / /
just tell your wife to get rid of the justin bieber fart soundboards because they take up a lot of space.
what games does she have installed? plants vs zombies is rediculously HUGE.

Angry birds also eats space and recent release of peggle ways in at 70mb before its even installed!
as above clear cached files ...inc browser caches if its storing to internal mem as opposed to sd card!
I use Diskusage from the market it shows all app data and sd card data along with their cache space used
DiskUsage provides a way to find files and directories on storage card which consume a lot of space.
Displays diagram with directories/subdirectories proportional to their size.
Press MENU for actions.

thanks for the good suggestions....I'm thinking about putting on erics rom...I just installed in on my phone and it flys....
Question: Since we have the same identical phone...could I take an Xrecovery back up on my phone...copy the file to her (soon to be) Xrecovery folder, and then recover her phone? that would save some time and hassle.

Can someone help me?
My wife and I both have X10's.
I'm running a custom rom and she is running the stock 2.2 (I believe it's 2.2, could be 2.1).
I tried to install an app on her phone and it said that she was out of space! She doesn't have a lot of apps on the phone, nor does she have a lot of junk on it....she has about 4 games, and not a lot else.
I rooted it and took off a few of the dumb things like Moxier mail and such but I couldn't see any way to see how much space she had and I can't figure out why she'd be out of space and I've downloaded a LOT more stuff than she has and I haven't gotten any warning....
Click to expand...

First thing:
Install Titanium backup *** root version from market.
Once you load it, it says how much space is left in every place of the phone.
4 games on a stock Froyo is quite a lot actually, rsrsrs, the stock rom is very BIG.
normal games may have 20MB or much more sometimes(like angry birds).
Yet the best would be to put a stable Froyo custom rom or eclair.
Womans(mine at least) doesn't want to much of the phone, just want it working, rsrsrs, so that would be enough for her.
She may have some app that is bloating the system space, google earth, some gps maybe?
Well,
I tried to take an Xrecovery back up of my phone and restore her phone....all went perfectly....except that her phone had my information on it such as the google account.
I put her google account info in and it wouldn't let me delete mine out of her phone.... so I was stuck.
So then I tried to do a factory restore and things went bad...no signal apn info....no keyboard....it was horrible.
I messed around and messed around and restored her phone to a MIUI rom that she previously had, but then I couldn't make calls...no apn information!
I tried to import apn information to her phone via an APN back up/restore but it didn't work....
So then I finally, I just put the stock rom on her phone this morning so she could get to work and I could start again tonight.....
arggggg....
Mine only says "Unavailable" because I skipped out of box experience and didnt register to test this. :| yours will still have your email and everything linked so dont worry!
Alright, I'm going to start off with saying that what this does is turn off FOTA for you by modifying data for devicemanager. How do you do it?
Well, let's begin.
12/22/11: New tweaks, FOTA checkin timer = 0 (no checks anymore), Build key difference, FOTA mode = disabled and a few other FOTA tweaks.
First: Download the files unzip them, and put all 3 into the TitaniumBackup folder on your sdcard (you need to download Titanium backup from market for this just FYI).
Then start titanium backup, grant root if you havent already and restore "DeviceManagerService 2.3.4" and then poof! You have now blocked OTA's. I'll actually try and make this happen in my script so new people can do it but you can tell if it worked by going into settings>about my nook>Version Number:9.9.9

FAQ
Will this stop me from buying anything from B&N?
NO! You will keep everything and the ability to buy. This does nothing to the services aside from makes a few minor SQL tweaks that affect the devices ability to OTA.
Can this break my device?
No! This process actually holds no risk. It should always work no matter what and since we caught it early on, we can prevent further updates that can fix this.
Are you awesome Indirect?
Yes, yes I am. Now enjoy all the crap I released for you guys

Thank you for your work Now, does this block any and all interaction with B&N servers (in case I(or anyone else) want to actually purchase a book or app from B&N) or just prevents receiving/installing the update? Also, will it prevent future updates or is it just coded for 1.4.1?
Completed. Thank you again . My best friend is a Nook "lead" at B&N and she is getting a kick out of our shenanigans. She actually gave it to me as an X-mas present. So thank you again for your work on the Tablet. I (we) look forward to more of your adventures in Nookdom. hehehe
It just stops the ota's.....

So does the sqllite method not work? I used that method 2 days ago, and so far haven't received an update (knock on wood).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946969
This is the sqlite method just provides you with files to download and install...this really isn't that complicated. -.- versus having to actually modify the SQL on the device, its already done for you. Just trust it works, install, and ignore everyone *****ing about updates. Now I'm going back to bed before someone crosses me by asking a stupid question.

Indirect, if nobody has told you lately, thanks for all of your hard work toward making the NT an unrestricted tablet.
Restored your files and mine says version not availablr, not 9.9.9

Thanks a lot, really appreciate this. My girlfriend is getting a NT for Christmas and I want her to handle the tinkering and guides like these will be of great help to her.
Just a couple questions. Does this work because the OTA updates check to see if you are on a lower version than what is put out (thus the 9.9.9)?
Also, just to clarify, when you said you want to put this into your script, you mean the rooting method you have posted?
Thanks again for all your work. I know B&N hasn't made this stuff easy but I personally think part of the fun is having to outsmart them

1) As I havent received notification of update yet, I don't know if they check version but it should if their recovery isnt crap however this has the FOTA check disabled so it should not even attempt to update it.
2)I meant my rooting script, yes.
Two thumbs up!!
Thanks for the hack. Once my NT was rooted, I put it to work. Now it is an excellent tool to use at work and the larger display makes life easier.
I just wanna clarify here: if we've already used the SQLite method and changed the fota value from auto to manual, there's no reason for us to use this new method, right? This is just an easier version of manually editing the file?
If so and if this actually works, isn't this confirmation that changing the fota value from auto to manual actually works? So far everyone's just keeping their fingers crossed, but if indirect is saying that that method actually does the trick- I'm inclined to believe it.
Indirect,
Although multiple people have already said it, thanks for all your work on the Nook! I now no longer have to worry about leaving WiFi on and having all of the work I've done since I got this thing undone!
Of course, B&N will come up with a way around this for their next update, but at least we're safe for now.

It's not just the FOTA edit, it changes a few things that OTA's typically check before no matter what. I just suggest you do this incase.
Okay in that case, glad I asked. I won't be able to try this for a few days but believe me the second I'm able- I will be doing this (and keeping my fingers crossed). Thanks again indirect and everyone else who's contributed info on this subject.

So, the FOTAkill.apk alone is not enough, or you want to be doubly sure by tweaking DeviceManagerService as well?

There was incidence of a person doing only the FOTAkill.apk yesterday that ended up receiving the update and lost root. He went through a long process of hard factory reset, rerooting, etc.
Not sure what happend. Titanium backup says devicemanagerservice 2.3.4 has been updated, a bunch of aps in the restore section of titanium backup have 2.3.4 next to them, but my software version still says 1.4.0?

The new AOSP camera isn't in AOSP yet, so you won't see it in any source-built CM roms.

I don't know why but I can't seem to connect to my wireless router with this rom. It lists all the networks nearby, but it refuses to connect with them. Any advice?
I have the right kernel, otherwise the wifi toggle would be greyed out.
*edit - nevermind, I think I have the wrong kernel. I flashed the boot.img from the .zip and flashed Crpalmers latest kernel. Can anyone please tell me the right kernel to download? I can't really live without my wifi.. lol.

You're probably using a WEP encryption on your router, change your router's encryption to WPA2 as it is much more secure. It's a known issue with AOSP builds right now that the phone does not want to connect to WEP encrypted networks

After installing this ROM I have all but 3GB of storage used. Why is it taking up so much storage space? I don't have anything on here and all folders look empty. Never had this problem before, so what am I doing wrong?

Oh that makes sense, thank you! While I'm at it, can I ask you if you're having constant data connection drop every 2 minutes or so? My 4g drops randomly and doesn't come back for a long time. Same goes for my cellular data, it constantly disconnects every 2 minutes.. Are you having this issue as well or is this only for me?
I'm not looking at the SD though.

Edit: used a different app. Figured it out.
I am having some major issues right now with cyanogenmod regarding the permissions for my filesystem
the stock filebrowser is telling me i need root access(which i have and have allowed to it) in my /storage/emulated/0/music/ folder to open my folder for breaking benjamin and linkin park
however theres another folder in there(skillet ) that has no problem opening
i checked the permissions for the files in the properties and they're all the same
i even tried rewriteing the owner of the file and it just resets it
i dont know what to do other than using AROMAFM and just reorganizing my entire music folder
this also happens in my downloads folder
im not even going to thing of using root browser though
just a few minutes before this, i tried to copy the music folder from another portion of my memory and it pasted the music folder inside of itself.....about 100 times, it was never-ending it nearly crashed my system, it started lagging horribly
does anyone have any information for me or can help me?
i can give screenshots upon request
