Boot Scripts? - Samsung Mesmerize

Is there anyway to run a script automatically at boot on the mes?

What type of scripts are you wanting to run at boot.

A mount script I want to mount a second partition on the SD card I already have the script and it will mount the partition I just can't figure out how to get it to run automatically at boot.

Ah. Honestly that one I dont know about. I know that others have made scripts that run at boot and they always go into ect/init.d folder but I do not know if that would work in your case. Some of the XDA vets will chime in here in a bit and should be able to say if its possible and if so how.

Ok thanks I could not find the init.d in the ect/ folder.

I found a way using autostart (root) from the market it will run any script during boot.

Boot Animation Request?

I don't know how and where to post this so I'll put this here...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAyE7IPAm-I&feature=related
Can someone make this into a boot animation with the sound and full instructions? Please and Thanks
Give me a couple of days.
Do you want that "transformers" banner logo in there? I'll make a couple different versions layer on tonight.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Ok thank you very much.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I would like one with all the gears and things turning without any of the Transformers faces or words in it if that would be okay. Thanks!
I have the first one ready to test. This is exactly as it appears on the video.
To install:
Download the file, or files if you want the audio. Rename the animation file. Depending on the rom you are on, it could be bootanimation.zip or VZW_bootanimation.zip. Extract the mp3 from the android_audio.zip. Find your current boot animation one and rename this one to that exact name. Either rename or move your current boot anim, just in case you don't want this one. Now place the renamed file and the mp3 into the same folder you found the original one in. Again, depending on the rom, this could be in system/media or system/customize/resource.
Let me know how it works out for you guys. I will do a couple more versions of this also.
Works great! It's in landscape but it works good. Could you make one in portrait without all the transformers faces and words? Sorry, I don't mean to sound picky. Thanks a lot! Awesome work.

I really don't want you to go through too much trouble.. I'm probably the only one that would want it in portrait anyway. Thanks for the awesome boot animation!!
Is there anyway that this could be applied through Astro?

I'm not sure. You need root permission to write to system, not sure if astro has that. I know es file explorer does. I could make you a flashable zip if you can tell me where it goes in your Rom.

I am running shooter ROM by joelz the location is....open ROM zip file, system, customize, resource, and right there is the bootanimation zip file. I also like the audio as well. Do I have to reflash ROM after replacing the bootanimation?

I could try Astro...what is the worst that could happen?

The worst is it won't let you write the file, so nothing basically.

Try es file explorer. They recently added root capabilities. Go to settings towards the bottom and turn on root explorer and mount system as rw. That should let you copy the boot to the right folder.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
No such luck. So I have to reflash after I place new bootanimation in appropriate folder?

What do you mean reflash? The entire Rom? No.
Edit. I just reread our conversation. Are you trying to place it in the zip for the Rom that you downloaded? If so, why? Use es file explorer, go to system/customize/resources and place the file in there, not in the zip.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
But delete the other boot animation. I'll try it later once kids go to sleep. Thanks for all your help.

It has worked with every Gingerbread ROM I have used on my phone, which is all of them, except for Audiophile series, but it would work no doubt.

You can try my rom.... catyrom or any of the i9000 ports...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
I currently have tried refuse 1.7, caty 1.0 & 1.5; currently running caty 1.5. I would recommend caty rom, the only thing I notice is the data sometimes cuts out and I have to restart my phone, also it shows the rom as "caty v2.0" in the "about" section of the phone, but the post says 1.5 so I am not sure what it is. But it's very simple to install and to run. Just make sure you follow directions to a T. When it says to let it reboot and sit for ten minutes actually do it. DONT FORGET TO HAVE A BACKUP IN CWM. Make sure it's rooted, I tried to root mine with Superoneclick and it didn't root properly, I had to use the odin with 3e recovery and root preset, then I was able to install roms. Good luck to you.
Yea...sorry...need to fix build prop...lol...keep forgetting to do that...and the service cutting out may just be the modem...

Are you using ROM Manager? if so, that is probably why you can't get it to work. just 3 button into recovery mode, go to backup and restore, and click backup. It should take a little while to work, and you can watch it go through all of the files as it backs them up.

Do not use rom manager!! When you transfer ron from computer make sure you send it to your 14 gb SD card and it will show up...do not flash anything or download any roms thru rom manager!

It is also helpful to create a folder on the SD card named "1 rom" so you can keep all your downloaded roms in one place and then you also don't have to scroll far with the volume keys since the folder will be at the top of the list all the time

Edify Update When Trying To Flash

I try and flash bionix. But it says like I need to update edify script. Or something please help
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
It would help if u tell us how you are flashing, rom manager or cwm. What rom are you comming from. Also how you got the rom. Did u download it on your computer and then transferring it through mounting storage I'm cwm because I know that causes a lot of problems.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
It sounds like the install script is using an older type of scripting which CWM no longer uses.

[Helo] Cannot run any script

I just install a fresh FP8 copy and rooted it. I am trying to run some scipts through the script manager, but I keep getting this error "In mgmain JNI_OnLoad". What is that, it never happened to me before?
Thanks
Try uninstalling and reinstalling Script Manager?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
Thanks Kvswim. I tried that, and it didn't work. for some reason I cannot even run it from terminal emulator! same error.
Hmm... Bad script?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
Nope, that happens to every script I have. I have been using the scripts for the last few months, I don't think so. I am resetting it anyway. Will see what happens next. Thanks kvswim
Download Pimp My ROM. There's some sort of option in there pertaining to JNI. Toggle it and see what happens.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
Yeah, I think deslice script had the same option, it was to enable/disable the kernal to check for error, but I am not really sure tho. I gonna try pimp my rom, I heard some good reviews about it.
