This ROM is just aHero v0.9 by MaXo64 with ADW Launcher v0.7eclair_beta7_UNSTABLE as standard (for all the lazy people out there ). The ROM & Launcher are in no way my work i just packed them together so enjoy .
DOWNLOAD

P.S.
This ROM is 100% dead ahero v1.0 is out and comes with ADW.
A good example of how to post other people's work =P
EDIT: I actually mean that.
=(
Agreed, sorry to say it.
All I wanted to do was add ADW launcher so that people dont have to add it after I take no credit and if you dont like it then dont use it and stick with the standard aHero then. I'm just sorry for trying to make peoples lives a little easier.

This is a gigantic waste of a thread, and as xangma said a PERFECT example of taking someone else's work and just reposting it. The actual update.zip for ADW is friggin tiny and if you're too lazy to flash it yourself (and are willing to flash this - a full ROM with wipe and everything for non-aHero users) you really don't belong here. Dabbling in experimental ROMs from unofficial sources requires patience and effort.
IMO the other ADW Launcher thread is a waste as well. Hero users are going to report bugs in that thread, and it's likely that they're going to be missed by the dev since it's easier to just keep up with the main thread. Imagine trying to aggregate bug reports for your app from every single Android Development forum for every Android phone out there - ten seconds of search would find anyone ADW Launcher in its original thread, or even on its dedicated website.
tl;dr if you were too lazy to read then you don't need to know what I said.
If people dont like something then dont comment on it nobody likes to read hate posts if MaXo64 tells me he does not want me to do this I will respect him and stop. I only did this because I had never done any thing like this before and after I did it I was thinking maybe others would like this.

I think it's okay to post it.
He gave credit and it is useful.

Well I have absolutely nothing against this, I just think you should have posted it as reply in ahero instead of a new thread. But now you know.

NICE!
But people can just flash a simple 500kb heavy zip to their phone without having to download the whole aHero rom. Do they even want aHero?
Oh whatever, do what you want. I'm not a mod
Come on guys, let him alone ;-)
Be happy that there may be another dev for you in the future, don't flame this guy
flame u instead max
Nice to see a few people see the value of this ROM .

I actually think XANGMA was being sincere,....
I've read LOADS of comments from the veterans of this site having a go at people when they edit other peoples ROMs minimally and start new threads claiming to have a new ROM to offer the community. This is not what Arranmc182 has done.
Infact, only a few days ago I read a post saying if you want to tweak an existing ROM, make it as an update.zip, do not make claims it is a new ROM, and give credit where due,.... ARRANMC has done it by the book, so BRAVO.

I was. I was actually being serious. I think he's made something convenient for everyone and given it to them. Not grabbed it and modified it and posted it in glory.
It was a good job in my opinion =]
Maxo64 is perfectly capable of doing so, I don't see the utility to open an additional post
chaos....

I assume this is the correct forum otherwise please move this.
What is the best article(s) to read if you want to start learning how to port roms from other android phones to the Evo? I've been searching on here and on google and it seems most articles are either outdated or only talk about editing existing cooked roms so I finally broke down and posted this. Yes I do use Linux and I do program in Java and .NET and do have a bachelors in software development but I have just never looked into doing this type of work until now.
Thank you, any direction I'm pointed in is appreciated.
I'll direct to you the Q&A forum.
Side Note:This goes in General,but im nice so ill answer you question.
There is no real BOOK to read, a java book is a good start, but you say you know java, so you can probably skip that.
Basically, this is all you have to do.
Download "Dsixda's Kitchen" to your linux distro(amazing software)
Grab a rom from another device.
Grab one of our(evo)stock roms(deodexed Stock 3.70 is good for froyo port,4.12 for gingerbread)
Open the kitchen, and find the option(#19 i think it is), and follow the steps to port it(hold on, your not done yet)
From there you will need do some manual work by tinkering with libs,tinkering with the boot.img, bascally just tinkering with everything related to booting(libs,ramdisk,hw-libs,etc.) untill you can get it to boot or bootloop.
If it boots, thats great, if it bootloops, youlle need to logcat it then debug it.
If you need help with something, pm me, other than that, thats basically(*note: i said basic, more complexed roms like sense 3.0 and non-htc device rom may require extra work)(*note2:alot of times, its going to be a no-booter, but just keep trying.)

Don't forget some of the most important stuff is in the build.prop and update-script.
Word of advice, look at a sense 2.1 and check out the base that was used. You can also use beyond compare and basically skip Linux all together. Using kitchen to deodex the ruu is a good first step. Choose option 11 in the menu.
Personally, I would start off with a working port and changing apps and moving stuff around. Also get a good list at which libs are associated with what. But use stock bins, etc, xbin, hw libs, and ported apks, framework, and software associated libs. Stock boot.img and a good updater-script. Also know key
Things like the EVO density is 160, vold_stab is usb, amkd is rotation, gsl hw accel stuff like that.
But first things first, Google is ur friend and use the q&a section.

ah yes, forgot about build.prop,and i think the kitchen takes care of updater script(unless the device has specific mount pointsor you want text or to clear cache and system). i was just getting the basics to boot, from ther he can debug the errors out of the log.
What about something A LOT simpler like adding the CRT animations to a ROM? any pointers? Any TUT you can point me to?

Check out the APKTool, APKManager threads. Lots of great valuable information in there.
I sometimes wish XDA focused more on the "HOW TO" and less on the delivery aspect. The more folks developing, the further we will be along
Another great way to get started is to mentor with another established developer.

Well said. People love to flame anyways and XDA is famous among other Android forums for being so harsh. This thread helped me out big time, and it's especially nice to see Leoisright and myn in here giving up a few pointers, because I too was curious about porting. I never worked up the confidence to ask, just too worried about it being passed over or getting flamed because I'm young and curious.

So I've been looking at beyond compare, did you use this from everything and just edit all the non evo files to match existing evo ones from within windows?
Hello everybody here,
so lots of us said that we should have a "Spamming" thread for CM9 and 4.0 Android development made by Maclaw's DevTeam-thanks for them, again . So here it is:
Please guys, if you have any bugs and problems which are already mentioned in GitHub, but you don't care to "ask-first-then-shoot", then post your problem here.
Please, write here, and really, don't annoy dev's on their DEV thread. That's for them to submit upgrades, news, and stuff.
Thanks anyway, and please, let the Dev's work in the calm way it should be.
Spam and post your heartbreaks here
Thnx for the thread. I feel like I can post my non-contructive post yet not clutter the dev thread
I following/trying CM9 closely. It looks very promising can't wait for the finished ROM
I should make some time to properly test/bugreport in git.
Should be in general, not there.

have u ever thought, that 'tards constantly flaming and making EXCEPTIONALLY unnecessary threads such as this one, are in fact much worse than noobs whining about their gallery not working?
Seriously though, I've been following Maclaw's thread for weeks, and the spam is no where near annoying as some "certain efforts" to end it.
Haters gonna hate, noobs gonna noob, deal with it.
p.s i consider myself a noob as far as android goes. But i don't whine about it, and don't shout at people on forums.
p.s2 somehow I doubt that this message will make the impact I intended it to make... sad.
Oh, and another thing - how do you define "spamming" and it's relation to the original post? I'm not much of a linguist myself, but something tells me you're not either, therefore both of us should keep our mouths shut...?
Oh 2.0: did i mention that this whole thread is a spam? ( and what is it we do with spam nowadays huh? )
You made good points. I don't spam myself as I see others do. At first I thought this was a good idea. So the course of action is to kill this thread or let it die.

feiks- if you dont feel that this therad is necessary, then ignore it. there are some people who think this is a good one, although Maclaw is right, this should be in general.
And yes, spaming the DEV post is something like the whining of ~15 people that gallery is not working, camera is not working...if they'd read first, then they would know what they can get from this rom.
Though, ignore this post if it's unnecessary for you.
For the others, enjoy.
A quick point about creating new threads and where to place them.
Question.
Are you actively developing something?

Yes.

Intentionally creating threads in the wrong place, just annoys other users and creates work for me. In future think about where to place your thread.
If after creating a thread you think, "I should of posted that in 'General'". PM me or report the post, I'll happily move it.
Thank you
It was my fault to place it to development.

Loving the ICS ROM by Maclaw and the gang - awesome work - it keeps getting better and better with each release.
Android is new to me so still learning - trying to get text to speech working, of course to try out a Siri like app.
I cannot seem to find where to turn on text to speech. I have tried a couple of apps and it appears that it is not on - and I cannot find where to turn it on.
Thanks in advance for any help

Finally I can say something about CM9 and ICS. I've been quietly reading the development thread from the beginning and thanking developers' posts for many months.
Anyway, I read that next release will be faster and with more working settings. I can't wait to try it out. I tried Beta 2, because it got generally good feedback before, and I thought that maybe it is good enough for daily usage. True, it is functional enough, but just a bit too laggy and glitchy for my liking. It was a good experience to test it, and all in all it didn't seem that much different from Gingerbread afterall. I miss the ability to put widgets on homescreen by simply longpressing, now you have to go to app drawer and search there - but I'm sure I will get used to it in time. I like the new setup of settings menu though.
But my message to the development team and everybody else who helps them: Good luck and thank you! I will continue "thanking" your posts in the dev topic. We are lucky to have active CyanogenMod developers on our rather not-so-good and not-so-popular phone, and good developers too - Phiexz and Maclaw as the main men, but also others. Kudos.
Im dreaming about 3.0.8 kernel (or new) on ics 4.0.3 on Gio
If i get a new sms the phone wont viberate..
I have the silent profiel turned on but still normally i would hear the viberating sound getting a new message. This is a bit anoying cose often i have to react right away.
Any one know how to turn on the viberating?
Hi,
I installed beta3.
I can't download s2e from the market. Is any version that works with cm9?
Thanks
The betta 3 is a lot better alread. Things that dont work for me atm are: Camara (I did try other cammera apss to. No succes) The foto galary app will crash (I only have like 280 fotos. Kids there fun)
Playing movies (Xvid/divx) and mp3 does not really work well.
Thats it for no.. Got to work again.
Why Spam?
Just help Dev friends. Your support would encourge them to work hard on softwares. Sorry for bad bad english
There is a discussion in CM9 development topic about bootlogos. Am I the only one who doesn't care about it? I've disabled it anyway for faster booting. Why is bootlogo so important for some? For all I care it could be a steaming dog turd, it doesn't matter

Just flash it and find out. Someone may sing praises about one rom but your experience may be different. Then there is personal taste. Something only you can attest to. Just give it a whirl. I was never a huge fan of jedi. Great work, just not for me. You might feel different though.

No disrespect to the OP - but threads like these tend to be dangerous and often times lead to work for the moderators when things get out of hand. This doesn't always happen, but if I were a betting man and knew nothing more than the first post my money would be on it being trouble.
The reasons for this are what EVO-lution of Man stated - especially between those two it's a matter of personal taste (in other words both are fully functioning daily-driver type material in terms of the basic phone functionality and what not). When people start stating opinions, those opinions can be challenged, then a felt need for defending those opinions takes over and things get messy - usually anyway. It's all about what works best for you, and the only way to really know is to try and see.
That being said - if there is something in particular you are unsatisfied with in the current setup another option would be contacting those responsible for it (hi ) and see if anything can be done.

I didn't mean unsatisfied, I wrote it because I was mad with that guy at the beginning, anyways.. It is not that, what I was trying to say is that I see that jedi has more features, more new things. At least that's my impression, I might be wrong, any ways... I'm installing the tweaked 2.4 version now because it is the one I've always used.
I want to format my phone and now I have to figure out how to install it with the new system, it would be easier with a simple installer (I'm suggesting ).
By the way, I have an extra camera, how can I delete the new one? I'm good with the old one . (I'm saying the app u use to take pics)
Oh, I forgot, I'm not demanding, this is free! and it's your work, and I'm great full to you for the time invested thanks

No worries. You very well might be right on the feature bit - Jedi definitely has features included that are not in tweaked (his kernel work, xposed framework, etc.), but there are likely a few the other way as well - as it should be as it would be a bit redundant if they were too similar That's not to say some of the features are exclusive to one or the other (using the above examples, ptmr posts his kernel separately and xposed is also something that can be installed separately) - just prepackaged.
I'm not sure whether either of these roms lack much in personalization, but I'll take the hit on the installer bit. I still like the idea, but it's a little different and that's not for everyone. That being said I redid much of the OP for 2.4 in order to address this, so hopefully the install process is a bit simpler looking now. And thanks to Alexea - there are a few more theme options around. I am in no way a themer, so one weakness on the tweaked side is definitely my reliance on others to take up the task and share their work. This does not seem to be a weakness on the Jedi side.
I take it you installed the aosp camera? That's the only way I could see you having two at least - if you want to get rid of the aosp one you can use the modificatinator. If you want to get rid of the samsung one you'll want to delete/freeze SamsungCamera.apk in /system/app.
Feel free to PM me if you have any other thoughts/questions/etc. - and I still think you should at least try Jedi. Personally I rather enjoy flashing things to try them out and see what they are like - and you very well may like it enough to stick with it. Of those who run stock modified roms, I think most use Jedi so it's definitely worth a look.

Well I tried tweaked 2.4 for a day and it was OK but I did not really get into it. Was going away on trip and needed something solid that I have used before. So I loaded Jedi master 16 and had so many issue with memory swap. Lost all. Oh well. Just look at last few pages of each and u can see what if any issues are in the rom. Now I gonna try tweaked but need to get hold of chef as to changing my kernel cause it did not do deep sleep at all. Maybe I missed something but need to try a diff kernel.

Now I gonna try tweaked but need to get hold of chef as to changing my kernel cause it did not do deep sleep at all. Maybe I missed something but need to try a diff kernel.

Sorry to hear tweaked didn't strike your fancy - what kernel did you pick? Safest bet is go with stock - not the sexy choice I know but it won't do you wrong in terms of stability.

+1 Im very happy with stock kernel running 2.4 Ive always seem to have very minor issues with the "sexy" choice....
I've been running the jedi roms since I've got my note and just switched to tweaked in the last few days. I really like them both a lot but I'm definitely liking tweaked a little more. The whole star wars thing was getting a little old for my taste but it was still a great rom. It's all gonna come down to personal preferences and that's about all there is to it.

Tweaked is 100x better I tried all the TW roms and Tweaked and the S4 Themed one are the best

I believe I did go with stock. I went from a full charge to 20% in about 10 hrs. Just need more battery life.

Oh wow - well the more telling stat on that one would be the screen on time. That's a pretty harsh drop if you weren't using your phone, but if the screen was on for half that time then it's much less surprising. Assuming it was off more than on, there have been a few google apps (mostly maps I think) that have been reported to cause some wake lock issues which could be at the root of it - this would be much more the case if the phone was not deep sleeping (except if you enabled the zerowakelag bit).

I gonna try it again with stock kernel and give it a few days and see from that point.
Tweaked is killing it for me
dwitherell never mind bro... I installed the last version of Tweaked and it's running perfect, oh now that I remember, there is something I'd like you to try to fix if you can. When you hack the volume and you make a call, the other person can hear his voice twice, like an echo. And the volume hack is very important.
Respect to the installer, I did the standard when it first came out on 2.1 I think, and I didn't like it that way (but it was not hard at all... my sister could do it and she has 14), then for the 2.4 I used the simple version of the installer and I liked it. So, forget what I said about the installer. Besides... you can modify everything later.
Oh... this was my question at the beginning, if I delete the AOSP camera, I will delete the gallery as well, and I really like the app for the gallery (I don't use the stock one). Is there any way I can delete only the camera?
So... 2 things:
Camera and volume hack
That's it, and they are not even issues, they work great. Thanks for everything :good:

No worries
I've heard the echo bit regarding the volume hack. I'll have to add that to the list of things to revisit to see if I can chase down what edit in particular is causing the issue. Yay trial and error
Unfortunately w/ the aosp camera/gallery - they are both contained within one single apk. Unless there is a sort of fanciness out there I am not aware of (a real possibility granted) I don't think you can have one without the other. I'm not sure if they come up as separate entities in something like titanium backup - but if they do perhaps you could freeze the camera part and see what happens w/ the gallery end? Just a thought

SuperSU on TW ROMs running 4.3 (regardless of version, source of version and how you got it) is frustrating. Apps that need root do sometimes able to get root access, and most often than not wont' be able to.
YES !!! I have done more of my share of reading. And please do NOT treat users with less than 10 posts like idiots.
*** The only solution is to change between Default Access modes. Going from grant, to prompt. Doing so for some strange reasons wakes up SuperSU***
The following solutions DO NOT WORK (meaning the problem resists)
1. Flash Antenna (regardless of which, even with the one provided by OP on their threads)
2. Flash insecure kernel zip
3. Download the version form Play and Update
Hope this help any of you that are experiencing some crazy frustrations like me.
*** Not to offend anyone, but the rule of 10 post or less = No reply/post on dev. forum is beyond me ***
*** I have tried to report my experience with certain ROMs, but Nooooooooooo.... <10 amigo ***
--- One more, since I think I am going be booted because of offending Seniors Party Members. ---
Can anyone tell me the logic of formatting a partition 3 times ??? I found this ridiculously offending being an engineer myself.
I do appreciate every single one of the developers who spends countless hours to make the word "FREE" as free as possible.
@mrbackdoor
Whoa Cool down Bro. Take a deep breath. Now tell me what precise are your problems ? I got the part with SuperSU making you go Ape. But what's with Roms and 10 Wipes ? I have no Idea what you are getting at.
So about SuperSU. If that app is making you go nuts, why don't you try SuperUser by @ChainsDD ? There's also a great Superuser app from CM team. But without knowing your Rom, I won't recommend it.
Do Kindly note, some Root apps are not compatible with 4.3. So you may get weird errors. Others like Nandroid Manager have their own limitations on Root access.
P.S. - Your Current Post Count is 1. I did respond right ?
LOL... thanks man. I am positively NOT HOT
what's with Roms
>>> TW 4.3 ATT leak on Tmobile LTElessS3
>>> I was just venting the fact that a member CAN NOT post on Development Forums because he/she has less than 10 posts.
>>> That's like filling 10 forms before you are able to download a file. Similar to registration process that just drive you nut.
>>> One engineering note is wiping a partition 3 times. The wipe process before installing a new ROM.
>>> I just don't get it... Why 3 ??? "insanity according to Albert Einstein"
Superuser..But without knowing your Rom, I won't recommend it.
>>>Superuser - NOT an option, not even working
Do Kindly note, some Root apps are not compatible with 4.3. So you may get weird errors. Others like Nandroid Manager have their own limitations on Root access.
>>> YES sir. Fully understood
P.S. - Your Current Post Count is 1. I did respond right ?
>>> call me up when you want a beer... or couple shots of the good sh****
@mrbackdoor
I don't have the ATT S3 Let alone the leaked Rom so can't comment. I hate TouchWiz anyway. I don't want to comment on the rules. They are there for a reason. Yes they may be an irritant but they keep Noobs away. You my dear friend is a Newb. There's a difference.
Whoever asked you to wipe the same partition 3 times needs to get their head examined. But then I am jumping ahead without knowing full circumstances. So if you don't mind, show me the thread link.
Are you trying to get the Leaked ATT Rom with a working Root ?
Now you too sir, have been guilty as well. I need to have full problem statement, which I am sorry I have not got as yet. So can you kindly explain what precisely are you trying to do and where does SuperSU come into play ?
Ok, first, please don't assume we are all jerks who are going to belittle you or treat you horribly and then ban you from OUR playground. I personally felt it a little insulting that your first post, coming to us for help, was so defensive and presumptuous.
Yes, we want you to do as much on your own as you can. No, most of us do not consider a low post count an indicator of idiocy. We might, however, judge how much we want to help depending on the quality of your post, or any other OP by anyone. If you do your best to find your own answers, and post clearly and respectfully, it'll show.
And there absolutely are reasons for all the rules here, and no one wants to hear anyone complain about them. (And if you haven't actually read them, please do so). The 10 post rule is to prevent spammers and bots from being able to post in the most important sections. And it's just 10 posts...see you're already on your way!
So if you'd care to try starting over on a better note, here are my points regarding your issues.
There is no real benefit to formatting something more than once. This is something that apparently began with some old device where the recovery wouldn't always format correctly. So people got in the habit of wiping several times rather than the king after each time. They then spread out across xda and push this practice like gospel sometimes, even though it gives no benefit and imo shortens the life of the device. I have tried to point out to folks this is not necessary, but gave up long ago! To each his own.
Enewman found a bit of a workaround for the su issues. It's not perfect but does seem to help a little.
Find these files
/etc/install-recovery.sh
/etc/init.d/dameonsu (or similar named script)
Find this line
/system/xbin/daemonsu --auto-daemon &
Delete --auto
Reboot
Hopefully that helps. And fyi, I'm going by memory, but am pretty sure I've been fairly accurate.
But also keep in mind that it's a combo of things, you do also need the insecure kernel. And Knox is still gonna screw with it if it's not been removed.
Also, try to remember, all of this stuff is brand new to all of us. Do not expect miracles, it takes time to relearn everything for everyone. But if it's really that bad, then consider going back to an older Rom for now.
These are after all leaked builds and should not be expected to be fully functional and bug free.

Dr. and Perseus
To you both, thank you, thank you and thank you. It would have been more appropriate on the General thread. Anyhow:
Perseus
If needed, I can point you to the threads. You are kind. I do appreciate that.
Dr.
I think you know exactly what I was talking about. So to you I do apology if my post is offended. In fact, to anyone who do feel the same. My bad.
please don't assume we are all jerks who are going to belittle you or treat you horribly and then ban you from OUR playground. I personally felt it a little insulting that your first post, coming to us for help, was so defensive and presumptuous.
>>>No Sir, no way in any shapes or forms I do assume people are jerks. Like I stated before, I was just venting on the fact that the rule cripples members ability to contribute and alienates them as well.

>>> Understood. Complain is absolutely not my thing. If there is a way to monitor users' footprints, you will find out that I have been here for a while, and it just not my style to complain or ask unless I have read just about anything posted.

>>> Of course.
There is no real benefit to formatting something more than once.
>>> Got it. Now's that is at the core. That's exactly what I was looking for. Instead banging my head trying to understand how partitions are being formatted and the file system that is basically associated to the NIX for a long time . Basically what I posted is the workaround that I use for now.

Statement below is my initial love your developers. That has not changed. Just "kang" members that I do find .... well.... you got my drift.
"I do appreciate every single one of the developers who spends countless hours to make the word "FREE" as free as possible."
Whenever you two do find your way to America Finest City... ring me up. A few rounds on me, if not all.
Again, thanks.

Actually your join date of May '11 is the first thing I noticed. Pretty big time Reading on your part if you didn't ask before.
I am afraid we are still missing the problem you posted for aren't we ? Or what steps Doc suggested about the leak solved your problem ?
I'm on the app most of the time, so I can't readily see post counts, join dates, junior/senior member status, etc. But anyway, thanks for the reply op. I lurked around the forums for about a year before my first post, reading and learning all I could, so I can appreciate that you seem to have done so as well!
I was slightly off earlier, when you find those files, change this:
/system/xbin/daemonsu --auto-daemon &
To this:
/system/xbin/daemonsu --daemon &
Had to go look it up again. Sorry bout that!
@Perseus71
I'm pretty sure his main issue was that root wouldn't always work. After a little while sometimes root apps will lose their root access, which can be annoying, obviously! Some have just resorted to opening and closing the app a bunch of times till it regained root.
If I'm not mistaken it's due to seLinux blocking root. And by removing auto from the script, it forces the daemon to run persistently, as opposed to just when it's called, thereby helping to retain root access.
Another workaround I read somewhere was to tell SuperSU to ignore the apps permissions, or something like that. Not positive on what they meant right now, I'll have to try and find it again to be sure.
The other part of this is the insecure kernel. This will set seLinux status from enforcing to permissive. You may have to reboot or even reflash the kernel if it doesn't change from what I hear. I've not seen this myself though.
And then there's Knox. If it's not removed it can also cause problems with root access.

Oh I see. Honestly on my 4.3.1 rom that I had, I never experienced this problem. Possible its related to the leaked Rom's implementation of SELINUX?
I have got no idea at all what you are so angry about, if it's kangers like myself well we never claimed to be true developers. The developers do they developing, and we do modifications to make things how we want them and hopefully others enjoy it too, that's all.
To OP, we're aware this SuperSU problem was annoying, we were one of the first few dealing with non-stop before bringing the leak from AT&T and debloating it over here.
enewman17 and his infinite knowledge did some poking around in the files and found a way to make root more persistent, albeit this is a leak, and we have Samsung KNOXing at our door. Things are bound to be broken, and especially because myself and others working on the leak are not professional Android developers nor do we ever claim to be, more like hobbyists who try to learn on their own by reading, or their own personal knowledge of NIX' and shell scripting.
Rest assured, we're all doing what we can to find workarounds, and make the transition from 4.1.2 to 4.3 as painless as possible because believe me, it is painful. The SDcard structure lining up with the AOSP file structure change from 4.2+, KNOX, SELinux, things just got a bit harder.
All
Dr. has it right about the issue (I'm pretty sure his main issue was that root wouldn't always work.). I can work around it. No biggie. Will try the recommended method.
