When a dev says their kernel has init.d support, what exactly does that mean? I've been told if the kernel doesn't support it you can load the script in script manager and tell it to run as root and run at boot.

Yes I know what it is but when they say, init.d support what does that mean, support. If they don't support init.d can't I still put a script there tell it to run at boot. So if they don't support it would doing that not work?

With init.d support, you don't have to make Script Manager manually start all scripts on startup. Script Manager takes the place of init.d for those that don't support it, but that's still another program running in the background.

Does script manager have to stay running after it has executed the scripts?

Not quite sure. I know if you set it to run at boot, there will be a message at startup saying "script manager has been granted superuser permissions".

No. It actually ends the process on its own afterward.
--------------------------
In my experience loopy smoothness needs to be run at boot while v6 supercharger does not. It doesn't seem to take hold otherwise. I could of course be wrong.

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!
So what do we do with the init.d tweaks that r inside the folder?

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

I am not responsible for any damage to your phone, marriage, sex life, etc. as a result of installing this mod.
This is just a simple compilation I put together that installs 3 ROM tweaks that I find myself always using whenever I flash a new ROM.
Included Modifications:
Galaxy S II Startup/Shutdown Animations w/ Sound by Jay Aristide
Fix Permissions Script by crackpot
Improved SD Card Icon for Status Bar. I couldn't find the original thread or author, so if you find it, please let me know so I can give credit.
Installation
Put ROMTweaks_Signed.zip on your sdcard.
Flash with CWM.
Enjoy!

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.

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
Super Manager
Keep the Lights On
Tegrak Ultimate
Voodoo Paid

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.

this should have been asked on the v6 forum
do you have busybox installed?
did you run the script as root (ie. scull and cross bones)
Sorry, I'm at work. Scratch this. I reinstalled the script manager and it stopped hanging. Not sure if the APK in seans zmod zip is corrupt or something.

I'm confused as to how this script is installed. I downloaded rc11 of this script. Is it flashed via recovery after flashing ics ROM? I keep seeing su but not sure what this is. If someone can help point me in the right direction that would be great.

You don't flash it. You need an app like Script Manager, and you run it from there

Check out the v6 supercharger thread first if you have any questions...but basically just run an app like script manager and run the script w/root permissions.
