[Q] OMG aria2c (cli multipart downloader awesomeness)

I tried to compile this multiple times but there was no way to include the libs in the binary (like the config option for busybox). Now its here and I'm pumped.
Some of you who use linux might know what this is. The instructions say to place it on the data partition in androidterm's /data/data folder (settings/cache of installed apks are here). I went ahead and placed it in /system/xbin...
What can this do? Its like wget but you can use a cookies file to dl from places like hotfile.. resumable downloads.. and best of all.. multipart downloads.. it also handles torrents, but I have no plans to use that function.

I have no idea why froyo appears in the zip file.. but since it has nothing to do with android (java) and more to do with the underlying linux system its safe to say that this works with all versions of android that have term emu.
I also compiled unrar binary for arm and it works with no problems.. this aria2c build just so happened to say froyo in it.
Btw. I too am on CM7.

Sweet. Thanks again.

No problem. Heres the unrar binary.. It seems to be faster than the gui version in the market.. It also has the added benefit of being able to extract from and write to anywhere you choose..

This is fantastic, I was just thinking today that I wished aria2 were available for ARM
Thanks for posting this.

Ok for anyone hesitant or having trouble getting aria2c to start a multipart download. Here's an example.. downloading a 720p trailer of captain america.. and attached is a picture of the madness that is hspa+
aria2c --split=80 --min-split-size=1M --max-connection-per-server=16 --user-agent="QuickTime/7.6.2 (qtver=7.6.2)" http://trailers.apple.com/movies/paramount/captainamerica/captainamerica-tlr1_a720p.m4v

Btw.. I couldn't rotate the pic.. as I'm on my phone.. hence the pic itself.. not at a computer to rotate it right now.. I'm sure you'll all suffer a little from tilting your heads.. sorry

And now...p7zip for android.
http://home.comcast.net/~ibladesi/p7zip.tar.bz2
This is a bzip2 tar file.. uncompress in the system directory and it will extract files where they need to go.. otherwise you'll end up with two directories.. xbin and lib..
So. Mount system as rw
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system/ -o remount
cd /system/
cat /path/to/file/on/sdcard/p7zip.tar.bz2 > p7zip.tar.bz2
#the above is used versus 'cp' to avoid retaining sdcard privs
tar xjvf p7zip.tar.bz2
Try it out! It extracts and compresses many file types.. more flexibility than the default busybox unzip too. Has a benchmarking mode so you can see just how terrible your phone is against your computer.. and.. Still can't get the rar module to load.. but I think its there.. rar as in compress!

[MOD][KE7] Gingerbread Stock 1% Battery - May 22nd

Opening this new thread, because the other one got way too crowded with many different files and modifications.
It's only a small mod and is based on pendos gingerbread battery modification, which he posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13659496&postcount=71
Thanks for providing them.
So this is basically a stock-battery-indicator with the percentage numbers added and the charging animation being smoother. No CRT effect, no other icons changed.

Install instructions
with ADB:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell stop
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell start
with root explorer:
Code:
1. copy new framework-res.apk to /system/
2. change file permissions to rw-r--r-- (should be the same as for all files in system/framework -> check it!)
3. move new framework-res.apk to /system/framework/ and replace the old one
4. reboot
Copy your old framework-res.apk before doing anything, so you can go back if something goes wrong. You might encounter 2 or 3 force closes when replacing the framework. Click them away, finish the process (if you havn't already) and reboot the device. Everything should be fine from there on.

For me it works. Thank you!!

did not work on me,could not install it,got KE7

possible to integrate the crt effect as well? Thanks..

Thanks man it worked for me

How to install it???
I run it from "Root Explorer" and it says "application not installed"...
Do i have to copy it over the original "framework-res"???

Great thread, the other one "Greener SystemUI.apk" got way too messy. This could be a lot easier thread to look out for, given that people keep this strictly for the battery mods.
Any chance we could get a step by step guide for installing these mods in the first post?

I use Root Explorer to do all of this. Make sure you give yourself R/W to /system/framework & don't use the " "'s.
1. Copy Chalid's file to MicroSD card (you don't have to copy to your MicroSD, you can copy to sdcard if you want)
2. go to /system/framework & rename "framework-res.apk" to "framework-res.apk.old" (don't panic if you get some FC for some running apps)
3. go to /sdcard/eternal_sd & move "framework-res.apk" to /system/framework (don't panic if you get some FC's .......)
4. reboot
5. enjoy
remember to change the permission's to mimic the original "framework-res.apk".

Hi, worked for me but lost all my contacts. It seems that this process removes the Google sync account. After re-syncing all is well. Thanks!

Can this also been made for KE2?

I wanted to try pendos tutorial using adb on my pc:
adb remount
adb shell stop
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
adb shell start
I've already copied my original framework-res.apk to sd card as backup. When I type adb devices it gives my serial number as expected, but when I type in adb remount it says operation not permitted.
I've already flashed ke7 and rooted using chainfires kernel which is all working without any problems. Any suggestions?

Without a valid framework-res.apk in /system/framework/, even for a couple of seconds you spend renaming the files, the google account syncs will be deleted. So better replace the file right from the beginning and backing up the old before that, instead of renaming it.

1) I suggest renaming der new one in .new first.
2) copy to /system/framework.
3) check/change permissions of .new
4) rename old one in .old
5) rename .new
ALexander

that way, the google account information will be deleted.

Works good. Thanks.

Please help ...
First of all: I am totally new in the world of Andriod.
I have not followed the instructions and now my SGS2 doesn't reboot. It got stuck on the Samsung Galaxy SII screen.
What have I done:
renamed original framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.bak
(I FORGOT to copy the new framework-res.apk to /system/framework )
reboot SGS2
it got stuck on first screen
What can I do now??? Can someone please help me out? Thx

Decided to buy root explorer and it worked perfectly! Thanks

[SCRIPT] shellpaste v0.4

This is a handy little shell script I wrote today that I used to copy files to /system/app folder. This is the first thing I ever wrote for Android so I don't know if anyone has any use for this but there ya go.

To use simply download the shellpaste.txt from below and rename it to shellpaste.sh. Put the file in the root of your SD card then go to android terminal and type the following:
Code:
sh /sdcard/shellpaste.sh
Changelog:
Code:
shellpaste v0.4
-now supports all folders not just /system.
-added chmod to actually make it useful. Thanks Tigger31337.
shellpaste v0.3
-cleaned up the code a bit.

-first release.

Thanks man this is very helpful for the things I do. Cheers.

Does this address permissioning after the file(s) are copied?
No offense, but yours seems like a rather convoluted method when you've got things like adb push or just drag and drop from the PC. If the apk is already on your phone, then you need only do a cut and paste to /system (with, say, Root Explorer) and then set permissions. Done.
Also, it's not very flexible. What if I want to copy to /data? Another script??

None taken. The script changes the permissions to r/w, copies the file, then changes it back to read-only. As I said, this was just a script I wrote to help me with what I needed to do at the time. Maybe I'll write a new version that supports any folder the user chooses.. I agree, it's not exactly an elegant solution but I'm a complete noob at this. You gotta start somewhere, right?
Edit: Also, I am completely open to feature suggestions. So if there's anything more advanced you guys would like to see in newer versions feel free to post. I'm using this as a tool to learn as much as possible.
Sent from my htc wildfire s a510e using XDA

I don't mean permissions at the f/s mount level, I mean permissions at the file level (i.e. chmod).
If you're copying an apk to /system/app, then eventually you'll need to chmod it to 644 before it will execute properly. Maybe I'm missing something, but copying an apk from SD card to /system isn't going to do this for you automatically.

I have a suggestion to your script
Example: I pushed a systemUI.apk in system/app folder through adb now when you look at your phone the statusbar dissappears, of course because of push, now can you make a script to rerun the apk or execute it, like mounting it dunno the exact word, so that you won't have to reboot your phone to see your statusbar again, instead just run it like windows run. This is usefull if your modding the APK.

Gotcha. Completely forgot about chmod.
I'll try to make it reinstall the systemui.apk without rebooting but could use some pointers on how to achieve this.
Edit:
Made a new version that supports mounting of all folders and added chmod into the mix. Should work properly now.

I've never used android scripts before but I'm guessing you could just do
exec /system/app/whatever.apk
But idk on that one.

I do exactly this on the WildChild ROM, using pm disable/enable.
It's a method I came up with by myself (so, it's not very elegant but it gets the job done ). There might be other ways of doing it, but I haven't seen any yet.

Help Mounting Remote Samba/CIFS Shares (persistent)

So basically I'm rooted and Busybox installed trying to use XBMCTORRENT and getting the unmounted shares error
So trying to mount my remote shares using this command while adb shell and su:
mount -o noperm,unc=\\\\192.168.0.21\\putsharenamehere,username=putusernamehere,password=putpasswordhere -t cifs none /mnt/obb/nas
I get this error ermission denied
Also tried a lot of apps like CifsManager and Mount Manager but none of those worked either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a 1920x1080 version of the bootanimation.zip.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ciybr59yw5sjgrn/bootanimation_-_freedom1_-_1920_30fps.zip/file
(fixed zip file. was zipped with wrong compression. bootanimation files need to be zipped using compression method as 'store', not 'normal'.)
If there is any desire for a lower res bootanimation, let me know.
Here are the basic Windows steps to replace the bootanimation per
http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-customize-the-boot-animation-on-a-rooted-fire-tv-or-fire-tv-stick/
adb connect 192.168.xx.xxx (your ip)
adb push c:\'directory'\bootanimation.zip /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
rm -f /system/media/bootanimation.zip
cd /system/media
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
chmod 0644 /system/media/bootanimation.zip
exit
exit
reboot FireTV
If you don't see an animation during boot up, the bootanimation file is not supported.

Thanks bro .

Used to work before but with newest firmware it seems something has changed. Did anyone got theese working again on stick 4k yet?
Okay i got it working again.
For anyone else:
If you have some magisk modules active check the file in the directory:
/data/adb/modules/"your module"/system/media/bootanimation.zip
and
/system/media/bootanimation.zip
you need to replace both zip-files in order to get the custom boot animation to work again.
If you often update and test your new bootanimation.zip then you may want to check my update script. Will be improving it from time to time to get a more fluid and fast way to update.
