So many of you may or may not know, but thanks to drhonk we now have init.d support for our roms
init.d is a folder in your system/etc area and its a folder that can contain different kinds of tweaks such as:
startup tweaks
ram boosters
performance tweaks
etc
How do i use it? simply by having drhonks 2.1 kernel and the init.d folder(with whatever tweaks you may like) in system/etc
Here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ja5t131d395blty/init.d.zip
is an init.d folder with tweaks from: darky, the bionix frost rom and the trigger rom, all in one folder
just unzip using file expert or whatever you use, and place init.d in system/etc then reboot
Thanks to:
darky for rambooster
birge and edt for tweaks
and teamwhiskey/ drhonk
and the rest of the community
Copied it to /system/etc ..rebooting

How do I tell if its working?
doesn't appear to be a folder within the archive. just the files. if i rename it, it just shows up as a file, not a folder. am i doing something wrong?
Should I...
A) create the init.d folder manually and extract the files into it
B) move the .zip file and rename it even though it doesn't show up as a folder
As above, how do we tell if it's working?
Thanks!

although apps do re-open almost immediately, some apps stay closed.. my phone bogs when i have alot of apps open, especially when i try to use intensive apps.
that being said i dont use the task killer much to free up memory but to kill apps right before i lock my phone- saving me alot of battery while my phone sleeps.
the article talks alot about processes but i dont go crazy with auto kill and advanced options.. bc they do create instability..
the truth is even the stock rom includes a built in task killer, as do many high end android phones, along with a task manager widget..
Just downloaded and will post my opinions asap. Thanks alot for this and for sharing it with the community! This baby just keeps getting better and i'm already woopin ass on everyone's phones that i know. Out preforms anything im coming across!

One of three things:
1) push the tweaks into system/etc/init.d
2) if you do not have init.d folder create it and push the tweaks there
3) push the init.d folder from the download as a whole instead of just the tweaks into system/etc

Thanks man. I noticed the folder came with the kernel. The folder is already in system/etc. So im guessing I don't do nothing then just as long the folder is im system/etc right

the way i remove apk's from a rom is put rom on sd card make sure you have astro open astro then open zip and select multi and tap the files u dont need or want hit delete it will take a few minutes when done not only does the rom size get smaller u will have more memory. I know alot of people us titanium but all it does is remove temp, if u have to reload because of problem u have to do it again, this way the files are out perm. Also if u have any apk's you want to add all u have to do is copy and move to system apps and it will load on rom. if any questions or confusion u can pm me.

Nice rom, any screen shots?
Curious. When you open zip to add apps, doesn't it need to be re-signed or anything? Been curious about that for a while.
And yes, I know this should be general, or Q&A.

It depends on your recovery version.
Signature itself doesnt do anything,its just extra protection for bad,interrupted,corrupted downloads
This Rom is so good that Dirky traded his 3d for an Evo just to flash this. I will be donating
I'm only getting 4 days of heavy usage with this rom and the stock battery. Is there a fix?

I happen to like Root Uninstaller (allows you to get rid of bloatware and backs up your apps in case you change your mind).
Also, Terminal Emulator comes in handy if you want to run some commands.
Titanium Backup

I don't have a dialer.apk. Maybe one of these is what you need. You may need to just reflash whatever ROM you are on.
These files are out of stock GB ROM. You can open the zip file of the ROM you are on and extract whatever .apk you need. Then copy the .apk to your phone and push it into the system/app folder.

Just flashed this. Nice boost in bass and mids. It works great. I'm using it with Raver's MIUI rom, but it should work on any GB rom. Nice find.
On Valhalla Black, it didn't install correctly. None of the files contained in the zip are actually there after flashing it.
After reading the original thread, this appears to be a known problem with the installer script.

I'll delete the files it placed and see if it made a difference, but I know after I flashed it I had to turn off my EQ cause my speakers started popping, so it must have done something.
thats because yoru going to wind up with 2 versions of the lib cyogin dsp lib visualalizer etc so on so forth
as it copies them to the lib directory when in fact it resides in lib/soundfx
update put the files where i beleve they should reside dont really hear any diffrence when trying to activate dsp it causes the dsp to force close after about 20 seconds time to logcat
Thanks hampsterblade! The installation worked, but I'm unsure about the effect....

Is it easy to back out the changes? I mean, did the zip only contain new files, or did it also overwrite existing files in Valhalla Black.

it doesnt delete anything from VB You will wind up with 2 copies of the files in the lib folder
the ones in the lib sfx folder are what came with vb
the ones that are identically named like libcygwin so etc that are in the lib folder are the ones that were copied from the flashable...
as i said its makeing 2 copies because it doesnt modify the origonal it just causes a resource conflct as u have 2 files of the same type in 2 locations trying to do the same thing

100 percent i know cause i tried it with putting the actuall bin files in the proper folders and the diffrence is 100 percent apprent right from the git go before dsp eats itself...
it does require dsp activation for the files to actually start doing anything as its an effect based process
