Could someone please post a step by step on how to properly install the speedy Gonzales script for us less savvy people. Thanks in advance.
You have to be rooted with tenfars recovery and the init hack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223771
Download the .zip file that says flashable in the title, it located at the bottom of first post. Move it to sd card. This one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=704624&d=1314689490
Open the System Recovery app and select Recovery Mode (unsure plugged in).
Select choose zip from sd card. Navigate to the file and flash it.
What part is the issue, let me know where you have questions.
Ok I am rooted and have tenfars recovery. Do I still need the init hack installed or just go ahead and install new script through system recovery. Confused on first part.
Yes you need the init hack. Its the first link I posted. Its same thing. Download zip. Move to sd. Boot into recovery, flash. May be able to flash the speedy hack right after, but id reboot first just to make sure.
You need to go back into the /etc/init.d folder and delete the kickasskernel and S00tweaks once everything is successfully flashed.
One last question. I notice that there are 3 init.d hacks do you use all 3 or just one. That's the only think im not sure of.
Which ever one you want, but only one. Each is different and the description should describe that difference. I am on the first one. Battery saver or what ever its called.
So after I install the script using the flashable zip am I supposed to have the "zipalign-dataapp.log." in my /data file? Or is that only if you do it manually?

That's what the instructions say in the original post for speedy.
You know what sucks is that the guy who made this got bashed so much he pulled the script and closed the thread...
This is supposed to be a community you ask and answer questions it gets to the point were people are afraid to ask anything without searching for 3-5 days for something i don't understand why people on these types of forums bash each others work so much its ridiculous...that sucks i feel really bad for the OP of this script he was just trying something and he got the crap kicked out of him....venting
im not gettintg the zipalign logfile he mentioned. hmmm

Yeah you're not the first person to have this problem, it's because Naven's init hack uses the busybox applet run-parts which doesn't exist in all busybox releases. You definitely should have a zipalign log in /data.
I'll probably get flamed again for posting, but the following link is init-rehack, I created it for myself (original work by naven who discovered the hack!) when the initial hack from naven wasn't working.

Edit: Updated with new link.
Flash it in recovery and let me know if that works and you see the zipalign logs.

This is something I realized when the init.d hack by naven was posted, it plain didn't work for me, and after some investigation i discovered that not all busybox versions had the run-parts applet.
It has come to my attention to that many users may not have the proper hack installed, at least the ones using my scripts, I had them check in /data for the zipaplign log and it was in fact not there.
I got it working by modding navens hack. Credit goes to him for his discovery.
Here is a link to the flashable zip. If you are using my scripts, check in /data for the zipalign log, if you don't have one, just flash this zip, reboot, and check again.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/9g6ngz
Thanks!
Edit (8/31/2011): Just so there is no confusion, this is not my new Speedy script, this is just a re-hack for init.d originally discovered by naven. This will just help those of you having problems with his hack. Obviously you need to be rooted and have recovery bootstrap.
Just flashed your zip. Log file in /data

Is this a new version of your script then?
Do we have to flash this the same way with recovery (aka renaming it to update.zip) like i had to go with the manual gb update?
Nevermind, figured that out.. but why am i getting a signature verification on install? Where do i turn off sig verification?

There is an option under advanced I think, in recovery, to enable/disable that.....
I dont have that option, unless now there is some other recovery peice im missing.. my recovery whichis Android System Recovery (3e) only has reboot, apply update, wipe data, wipe cache.

You need to use the modified boot -strap recovery available on this forum. D/L it & install it like any other app. When you open it, just read & follow the directions on the screen & you will get to the custom recovery where all good things flash from.

Ahh HA.. See i know i was missing something.. Thanks have been given.
Zip-align logs were not showing in /data/ for me, so I flashed this, and now they do.
I'm assuming that means the rest of the scripts weren't working either?
Cool. Going to flash this but need a quick question answered.
I have Busybox 1.19.0 installed. I downloaded "Busybox" from marketplace to install 1.18.4 but which location should I chose?
Options are /system/xbin/ or /system/bin/
Thanks
Sorry found this in original init.d hack thread:
BusyBox with run-parts binary, installed in /system/xbin - If you don't have BusyBox, you can download it from the market here.

You should be okay on 1.19.0 now, but busybox should always always be installed in xbin.
So which init is better or the working one?

Some people find that the re-hack (this thread) works (and the original does not), others find that the original hack works just fine. A way to test is to install my Speedy Gonzales scripts, reboot the phone, and then check in /data for a zipalign log. If not, then flash this re-hack.
I am running speedy. So should I us you init when using yours and his when trying his? How can we tell if yours is working and when using his if his is working? This is getting a bit confusing. I also noticed when I flashed speedy navens old oo got left behind. So I deleted al scripts in init folder and reflashed yours and all yours are now correct.
With his init and your script. Yours scripts are in there but no zipalign in data.
Should I start over by deleting unit folder flash your unit then speedy would that be the safe bet?
Thanks for staying.

They are two separate things entirely. I posted the re-hack for those having troubles getting scripts to run with naven's original hack. The re-hack posted in this thread doesn't contain any init.d scripts, it's purely the hack. Like I said above, a good way to test his hack is to install my scripts (which it looks like you have), and then use a file manager like Root Explorer and navigate to /data, there should be a zipalign log, if there isn't then his hack isn't working.
Edit: Well, the biggest question is if the init hack you have installed is even working. I'm assuming you have naven's... try the above, let me know if the log is there or not.
I edited my post can you please check it and let me know what you think.
I do have his with your script.
I think I should I should delete init completely and start fresh with yours and your scripts. That sounds like safest bet. Or does naven init need to be there first then yours on top then your scripts. Thanks.
wp_mod: Module to disable system write protection
This is a kernel module that disables write protection on the system partition while running the stock kernel.
HTC changed the MMC_MUST_PREVENT_WP_VIOLATION code to make it much harder to crack. I had to redo the module completely, so this is experimental. In the past, it was a simple matter of changing a variable, now we have to replace a function in the kernel so it returns something different, causing the kernel to skip over the write protection code.
I would caution against loading the module after attempting to make changes to the system partition. It could end up corrupting the filesystem. If the module is loaded at boot, there should be no worries.
This module will probably need to be updated to load with future kernels when they are released.

Many thanks to those who have donated!

So as an end user, before it gets baked into ROMs, we need to load this after each boot?
Worked here as well on the AT&T variant. I added the line to the install recovery script that chainfire uses for SuperSU and it loads it on boot now
what i did was run the insmod command in terminal emulator, made the system rw/ edited /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and added the insmod line in there Sure it would be easier if I had init.d support but I'm on stock and am too lazy to change to a custom rom

Nope. It'll get rolled into the kernel/scripts that are loaded at boot automagically.

You need to run it each time you boot, until it is correctly working as init.

I don't know what method they use to get root access to /system/xbin. This is probably compatible, if it loads with the Verizon kernel. Backup all your data and try it.

jcase has got us root access ...its only writable to /system/xbin and has to run on every boot. the app used is called WeakSauce
but i was thinking. once my phone boots up, i wait til i have root access, then download the file, place it in the correct directory, download terminal emulator and run the commands. then /system becomes writable until next reboot?
@flar2 nice job as always man!! :good:
awesome awesome awesome
looking forward to elementalx on the m8!

Hey guys
I finished building CWM Recovery for locked bootloaders.
its still in the beta phases.... actually there was no alpha tests because no one on my team has a l5 II.
Due to forum rules I cannot choose who I want to give this recovery or exclude anyone from using it. so if you are a noob I cannot stop you from using it but please dont blame me if you brick your device!!!!!
The recovery as far as I know has no errors.
I have tested flashing Mother of all ad blocking and it worked perfectly.
How Does It Work?
the recovery uses 2nd int.
when your phone boots It is hacked to load scripts from init.d folder.
inside the init.d folder there is a script called 1.unsecure
this stops the system an kills process and launches the recovery.
How Do I Install?
Busybox must be installed
Extract the zip(attached)
Run the init.bat
Enjoy
How Do I Enter Recovery?
Reboot
after the lg logo before your boot animation starts repetitively hit the Vol + key
or run the reboot recovery app
Who do I thank?
ME for all the hard work testing and retesting
@IGGYVIP for giving me hope that its possible and all the support he has given me so far.
Optima Team for being such a great team
Can I port this to my device?
Yes!!
Port this to as many devices as possible. If you need advice or need to know how to port feel free to PM me.
It doesnt work for me?
some user experience problems when the script applies permissions
to fix this
Change permissions to all files in /system/bootstrap/* to 775

why not mod one of the 2nd-init recovery apks with this?? Make much simpler for n00bs as well as give the reboot to recovery option.
Modding the apk I have exp with, I just never had any success building a working 2nd-init binary.

The apk pushes the script to a different location and only executes on the l3 ii. So the app doesn't work on the l5 ii. I would have to do allot of editting. Enable init.d and change where the files get pushed to.
But it's pretty simple for noobs.
And this is not ment for noobs as I said on my thread its still on beta testing.

sorry my math is bad. the permission are meant to be 755. for some reason when shell is changing permissions it gets permission denied.
I think that the script 001unsecureboot doesn't kill the bootanimation, in fact when I reboot to recovery there is the bootanimation (deformed and with strange colors) on the screen, and only when I press a key the recovery appears for one second.
After adding the line "$BB killall bootanimation" after "$BB mount -o remount,rw /system /system", the issue is solved.
ownership ?

May be try changing owner to root before changing permissions ?
in the .sh add this code before chmod but after the remount,rw

in theory as its owner it must allow change of permission

Does it work?
The firmware works, but two things are proving to be very difficult.
one is extracting system.img, i dont know what's different, but the method i used for the 4.2 firmwares just crashes now.
two, and this is a big one
rooting it..
working on it
edit: super SU 1.9.4 zip from chainfire worked. No other method works though, the superuser apk will install but the binary doesn't stick
edit 2: successfully extracted the system image
notes
hey,
if the update with the t211 was any indication, be sure to only write boot.img and system.img
i am making a flashable zip and will post after i get it right and debloated and get the script correct.
realistically, sometime tomorrow, will update.
@Restl3ss okay so iam laughing at myself right now becuase i can not get the damned thing to write. i don't use windows
so no odin. i have tried dd writing the images but on boot i hang at logo and with no adb i can't get a visual on the problem.
i have a .zip put together to do the same and get the same. i have another zip set up ota style but can't script worth a damn.
can you whip up a script and post it?
an interesting note- in /sbin is a binary file named partlink. thoughts?

@Restl3ss
okay so this is the joke
i am too poor to upload a large file to devhost. :laugh:
solution - i going to upload the otapackge for the firmware WITHOUT the system folder.
the package has the modified to unsecure boot.img and the updater script which just happens to be the
same one i am using for cm11 :laugh: :victory:
these are the instructions for converting, mounting and pulling the system image into an cwm flashable zip
to convert and mount sparse .img in terminal
simg2img system.img system.img.ext4
mount -o loop system.img.ext4 /a/directory
then nav to that directory in file browser, copy the contents of /system and insert in to package.
there is also a second step to correct issues with symlinks in vendor. drop that package into ota second
sorry for the inconvenience. it's in your folder with the patches.
but hey, i'm poor.

i'm running it right now and it seems very kitkatty
If i flash 4.4 can i still flash back to 4.2.2?

got it system folder is properly extracted and what not, trying to deodex. About 10 apks are failing on every deodex attempt, can't figure out why. Gonna upload a 100% stock to xda anyway, deodexed + rooted will just have to come a bit later.
