---

I didn't make this, the original creator is "DooMLoRD", I just found that it works for our version of the One X as well!

basically this will allow the user to execute custom shell scripts, placed in /system/etc/init.d/ folder and they will be executed on each boot!


Please note that some custom ROMs/Kernels already have this feature... This addon is ment to be used on STOCK ROM...


[ requirements ]

1. stock rooted ROM
2. windows PC with adb drivers installed

[ how to install ]

1. download the provided zip package
2. save it on c:\
3. extract the contents of the package
4. connect phone with usb debugging active to PC via ADB
5. execute "runme.bat"
6. follow onscreen instructions & enjoy!

incase some issue is there post the output/log of script


[ additional info ]

i have added the following things in the package:

1. corrected /system/bin/sysint file
2. run-parts binary in /system/xbin/run-parts (which is basically busybox 1.19.3 binary)
3. correct /system/etc/install-recovery.sh file (this file gets executed by default on stock kernel too!)
4. test/example script /system/etc/init.d/99test

to check if this is working the test script (99test) will create a temporary file /data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt on each boot

let me know how it goes!




ENJOY!

So just follow the instructions after downloading the package below. I'll try making a CWM flashable file when I get home.
I will also port over some nice CPU scaling tweaks from my other devices and some nice maintenance scripts.

So how does this do this without modding init.rc in ramdisk? Or does it? I cant look, just wondering how it works.
