[GUIDE] Add init.d scripts support for padfone/padfone 2 - Android General

First of all, if you don't know what does init.d means then you probably won't need this and I'm not responsible if your padfone explodes when running this . Seriously this is almost completely sure but your device, your responsibility.
Credits:
I gathered information from this thread from DooMLoRD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236446 as well as from others in this forum, but i believe he was the first.
Pre-requisites:
A rooted padfone, busybox and a command-line (adb, terminal, ...)
Explanation:
We are going to use the install-recovery.sh script that recreates the recovery partition (if it has been modified) while the device boots.
The way it works is simple:
- the boot process calls install-recovery.sh while executing init.rc
- the install-recovery.sh calls sysinit script
- the sysinit script runs /system/etc/init.d/* in order
Issues:
I found that the script is called in an early state where the date is still not set (is said Jan 28 1970!!!) and only a few fs are mounted:
/system, /data, /persist, /cache
so no sdcard, no Removable ...
Howto:
you can either copy the following text to a file in your device or download the attached file and in a terminal run:
$su
#cd to the directory where the script was stored
#sh ./enable_initd.sh
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo ''
echo 'This script will enable init.d'
echo ''
echo 'You will need to reboot to check if it worked'
echo ''
echo 'If the script successfully enabled init.d you will'
echo 'have a file in /data/log called init.d-log.txt'
echo 'after the device is done rebooting.'
echo 'Once checked that it is working, you can delete'
echo '/system/etc/init.d/99test and /data/log/init.d-log.txt'
echo 'Remember to always set the proper permissions in your'
echo 'scripts or they will not work.'
echo ''
if [ ! -f /system/xbin/busybox -a ! -f /system/bin/busybox ]
then
echo 'no busybox found! please re-install/update your busybox'
else
# Mount system as rw in order to prepare the paths and scripts
mount -o remount,rw /system
# Create init.d dir
if [ -d '/system/etc/init.d' ]
then
chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d
else
mkdir /system/etc/init.d
chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d
fi
# Create sysinit script if needed
if [ -f /system/bin/sysinit ]
then
echo 'sysinit exists, init.d should be enabled'
chmod 755 /system/bin/sysinit
else
touch /system/bin/sysinit
echo '#!/system/bin/sh' >> /system/bin/sysinit
echo 'export PATH=/sbin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin' >> /system/bin/sysinit
echo '/system/bin/logwrapper busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d' >> /system/bin/sysinit
chmod 755 /system/bin/sysinit
fi
# Create / modify install-recovery.sh
if [ -f /system/etc/install-recovery.sh ]
then
if cat /system/etc/install-recovery.sh | egrep -i "sysinit"
then
echo 'sysinit already present in install-recovery.sh, skipping this step.'
else
cp /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.old
echo '' >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo '#init.d scripts integration' >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo '/system/bin/sysinit' >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
fi
else
touch /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo '#!/system/bin/sh' > /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo '' >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo '/system/bin/sysinit' >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
chmod 755 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
fi
# Create 99test script to check if init.d works
echo '#!/system/bin/sh' > /system/etc/init.d/99test
echo '' >> /system/etc/init.d/99test
echo 'date >> /data/log/init.d-log.txt' >> /system/etc/init.d/99test
echo 'echo init.d works >> /data/log/init.d-log.txt' >> /system/etc/init.d/99test
chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/99test
# Sync and remount system
sync
mount -o remount,ro /system
#done!
echo 'job done :)'
echo 'reboot your phone and check on'
echo '/data/log/init.d-log.txt to see if it worked'
fi
Good luck!

Just wondering, is this all your own shell code? Looks awfully similar to one I used on my router -- variable names and all.
Either way -- good post. Just wondering since you posted it with GPL and all
Edit: Ah, here is the script I previously used and thought it reminded me of; "Adblock script" by Adrian Jon Kriel, http://lifehacker.com/5060053/set-up-universal-ad-blocking-through-your-router
yes you're right. Mostly is borrowed from tomato firmware forums (can't remember where), however their script is meant for dnsmasq, and I revised this to work with hosts file.
EDIT: Saw your source link, the reason I GPL'ed this script to prevent anyone else taking credit for Adrain Jon Kriel's work, I'll revision first post to give him proper credit thanks for link.

how/why is this better than the app? doesn't it do the same thing?

It does the same as app, however my script is only 4.3kb.
Basically it combine multiple hosts source into single hosts file by clean up garbage such as ^M (MS-DOS end of line) which can be quite problematic for linux/unix in general (yes Android is Linux), and trimmed down to much smaller file size by removing comments, duplications, and finally sort everything by 0-9 and A-Z order to speed up hosts look up.
Does this need to be rerun on any sort of schedule? Or will it take care of looking for new address to add to the hosts file?
Love this script, thanks for sharing!
nice work!
way to condense this down to nearly nothing. Quick question, does this autoupdate? Do I have to run this from time to time to update the hosts its blocking?
Thanks!
No it does not auto update, you can just rerun the script yourself.
autoupdate
so then, how could we force this to run at boot so Android will always be adfree? Could we add a line to userinit.sh?

I have my doubts that the internet connection is live until phone is fully booted. And it certainly is not if you have SIM card pin enabled.
We have 3 options from where I sit.
We can add it to the userinit.sh (or user.conf) file(s) and perhaps set it up with a delay (since most of our internet won't be on right when the phone is booting) ie sleep 120 like from this post.
We can use Autostart from the Market.
We can just run the script manually.
Thanks, works nice.
(nice name above me )
I keep getting an error, it can't connect to any of the sites to download the files... like it says 'bad address' and then 'error files not downloaded'
Can someone please help me?
I am running JACHero v1.4
I'm pretty sure I'm trying this wrong.
I used the autostart app and created a .sh file (I'll post the content at the end of this) and the corresponding directory in data.
I started the phone and got a SU permission request (which I expected). But I don't know if the script ran right.
BTW I created this script using notepad in XP. Probably not the smartest choice, but I really don't know what I'm doing and figured I'd give it a shot.
Here is the content of the .sh file I created:
--------------------------------------
setPriorityLater()
{
# sleep for 2 minutes
sleep 120
# phone and all processes should surely by up by now
su
cd /sdcard
sh adblock.sh
}
setPriorityLater > /dev/null 2>&1 &
-----------------------------------------
I copied the text of the script from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4355721&postcount=78 and inserted the commands to run this script.
Be honest, I screwed it up didn't I?
Couldn't you just use Gscript and run it every so often?

It's recommended to use notepad++. Trust me. It's much better than notepad.

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
at the beginning of the script, and now it works fine

REQUEST/IDEA for a safety script for tweaking/OC

I had an Idea for a script that would run at bootup, and if a certain variable had a "value" of NOT 1.
then the script would change the CHMOD of a userinit.sh located in the sd-ext from 050 or 777 to 750 then it would change the variable "value" to 0 were it would stay untill another script that runs at shut down or reboot setts the variable to 1 and changes CHMOD back to 050 or 777 so that the userinit.sh is not run.
That way if a change is made during operating the phone that causes the phone to crash with out shutting down properly the script runs which causes the userinit.sh to run and "resets" userinit.sh values to a "default". Otherwise if shut down properly nothing happens.
This could be expanded on to include repairing the EXT or clearing some special cache or other stuff I am unfamiliar with but that you might want to run after a crash.(like logcat?)
any way what do you think? any promise?
I think, for overclocking purposes anyway, making the userinit.sh unrunnable would make the phone break immediately, as I think it would go to the highest available frequency. However, I like the idea, though I'm not sure how to run scripts on shutdown. I think for overclocking, it would check if the shutdown was clean on startup, and if not change the applicable line to the next lowest number, which it would get either from a seperate file or maybe it could be stuffed in the script itself. (Just my somewhat uneducated thoughts)

Keep it simple. If a change in userinit.sh breaks your system, reboot to recovery and edit it and reboot again.

most rom devs/tweakers launch userinit.sh by calling it with a sh
e.g.
/system/bin/sh /system/sd/userinit.sh
so it will still run !! ( as init doesn't care about permissions, it is god )
don't believe me?
Code:
echo "echo I ran" > /data/test.sh
chmod 000 /data/test.sh
sh /data/test.sh
Keep it simple. If a change in userinit.sh breaks your system, reboot to recovery and edit it and reboot again.

And I know that most roms now have a script called something like in /system/etc/init.d/20userinit that runs at startup and checks to see if a userinit.sh is present in sd-ext,if so it runs it.Also I noticed that the script can be there but if it is CHMOD to 777 it wont run. This is the "Reset script" Set to restet to something you like and run other tasks to help Fix/Diagnose probs.
The OC changes would be made from a different script such as 86supersettings
Or a userinit located in system/sd maybe ?
The thing is making sure one is read before the other.
Any way I probably will just learn the language better and do it from recovery console.
Thanks again

chmod 777 makes it rw and executable by everyone!!!!!!!!
have a look here
http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugfilesp.html
but as I mentioned above, init ( the initial progam runs as root and doesn't care about permissions, ( it wouldn't be very good at doing initialising the system if it had to seek permission )
Yea your right. Well I said I wasn't that good at this linux stuff! Now I Proved it.
Any way as you can see this is more of a request..... I still think it's a good Idea.
Thanks for your help FireRat.

I understand how I could manualy Replace the modified script with a default one that was on my sdcard from within recovery after a faild OC change...but..
Are you saying I could actualy modify the original script from recover? Do you have any info on how? A link?

If you have RA-Recovery, adb works, so you can pull/push the userinit.sh script. You can also enter the terminal and use vi to edit it from recovery. You may have to mount the ext partition first, but that's pretty easy. "mount /system/sd" will do it, if /system/sd doesn't exist, "mkdir /system/sd".
Ok, Thanks that makes sense. I'm still learning adb though. And I tried vi once before with no luck. But now I know what to learn about.
Thanks a lot I appreciate it.

I am going to use the beta boot up script from ZKX called 86Supersettings, but I could use a userinit/user.conf like most do. Correct?

well, a .conf file should be just that
a file with configurations , not an executable script

OK. I guess I meant both together. I would use the user.conf to make tweaks. Then have to modify the userinit.sh with the part you made. Something like.
#!/system/bin/sh--LEAVE THIS OUT. ITS ALL READY AT THE BEGINNING
if [ "`cat /data/cleanshutdown`" != "1" ];
then
echo "shutdown was not clean"
Dont run user.conf
and set cpu or other stuff to "default"
else
echo "shutdown was clean"
Run user.conf for tweaked settings
fi
echo "0" > /data/cleanshutdown

If I'm way off then I guess I need to re-read the Userinit thread.

well, in practise it doesn't matter
the file extension is only for use humans, if I'm looking in a directory and I see .conf I expect it to be a configuration file, I see .sh, its a shell script, .py python, pl perl .......
I see. Well Thanks again for your help. Your script does work. I tried it. crash on purpose.
I still have a lot to learn.
Folks;
1) If you're OC'ing via SetCPU, remember that this doesn't change the recovery kernel, and you can uninstall SetCPU from Recovery. From there, all you need is a "safe" userinit.sh.
3) If you're OC'ing via userinit.sh -- same deal. Your phone crashes on you and you just edit it to a safe config from recovery.
Tweak away.
This is what I ended up with
Thanks to

Named 86supersettings so it runs after userinit.sh if one exists.
I put some Led indicators in so you can tell if it ran right at boot up. (about all I did besides copy and paste) Thinking about adding some other stuff like repair ext, or some kind of log to help me see what happed... any suggestions.
OK, here's another Idea for another safety feature...
I would like to "hard code" a temp fail-safe in to the code. I would like to get rid of SetCPU and when OC-ing it's nice to have a temp failsafe.SHUTDOWN!LOL
Any way I guess I would just add a few lines to some existing script in my phone?.... Any suggestions.
Thanks for your time.

added to linux tools, thanks!
By editing the original I could ensure that only what was created in the original, was altered, although in theory you should be able to strip or add anyfiles you want in the same way.
Works for sure on fedora 15 and opensuse11.4 and any the original script works on.

[Completed] [Q] I wrote a script for init.d , but its not running properly on boot.

I wrote a script for init.d , but its not running properly on boot.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# init.d (startup scripts) permission fixer.
mount -o remount,rw -t auto /system
chown -R 0.0 /system/etc/init.d
chown -R 0:0 /system/etc/init.d
chmod -R 777 /system/etc/init.d
chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/etc/init.d
chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/etc/init.d/*
echo "Init.d is working !!!" > /data/Test.log
echo "excecuted on \$(date +"%d-%m-%Y %r" )" >> /data/Test.log
echo "Init.d is working !!!" > /sdcard/Test.log
echo "excecuted on \$(date +"%d-%m-%Y %r" )" >> /sdcard/Test.log
mount -o remount,ro -t auto /system
The problem is that
Code:
echo "Init.d is working !!!" > /sdcard/Test.log
echo "excecuted on \$(date +"%d-%m-%Y %r" )" >> /sdcard/Test.log
Its not creats the "Test.log" output file in "sdcard" .
I don't know why its not creats the "Test.log" output file in "/sdcard/Test.log" is there any wrong with scripts or some thing I've missed.??
Hi there,
I'm sorry, but XDA Assist is not a "helpdesk" providing technical assistance but more to point you in the correct direction with your problem.
So, you already opened a new thread here: [GUIDE/TIPS] Android Linux Shell Scripting. , please wait there an answer or open a new one in the general forum dedicated for questions and answers here:

Good luck
