I do recall in terminal emulator I used to be able to "su" and then "reboot recovery", straight to recovery I would go. Maybe my memory is foggy and perhaps it was my nexus one and G2 that did it and not this phone. I think at one point it worked on this device, now It just returns "sh: reboot: not found" . Was this perhaps something that changed from GB/ICS? Any insight would be helpful. Thanks

Nope it works great. I just checked it on my ICS build
In order for it it work there has to be the reboot binary in sbin and xbin. If reboot isn't working in terminal check those direcotories and make sure there is a reboot. If it isn't there. Find a ROM that has it and copy the file into both directories and set permissions. Not sure right off what the permissions are but look at the permissions of a file already in there and set the new file to the same.
cool thanks for the info. ill look and see but if memory serves me correct it hasn't worked on any custom ics that ive ran yet. i still cant remember if blazer on GB did it or not.

It is something being removed, rather than added, as it works in stock ICS (and GB) using the ODIN OneClicks.

cool thanks for the heads up mr. hub. just throwing this out there but i can recall a time back when i would flash most custom roms there was a t.emu that showed in sayyy titanium backup but couldnt be run. i would generally download a 2nd t.emu from the play store like the one in the pic and the reboot commands worked. im currently on frankenstein ego rom and upon fresh flash there is no t.emu showing in titanium backup. Like previous times i just grabbed it from play store and it was a "no go". could that be the issue of what is being taken away?
just wanted to throw this pic up because this is deff different than the "root" response i used to get.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Do this..
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
ln -s /sbin/recovery /system/bin/reboot
mount -o remount,ro /system
reboot recovery
Or something like that..
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
thanks chris, that did it. anybody have any thoughts on that 2nd pic i posted? with the "whoami" it used to always return "root" up until about the same time i noticed the reboot issue. i guess that one confuses me because i tuped "su" and the superuser allow/deny popped up and i clicked allow as isual. so with knowing that it seems odd to me that "whoami" returns "unknown". is that the same issue that was stopping the reboot command? sorry guys, i know its not real important it just helps me understand a little better about how things work.

I am desperately searching for a froyo rom with working a2ext. I HATE froyos a2sd FAT32. But after hours of trying to get firerats (awesome) scripts to work, I need another way. My problem with those scripts iit fails cuz I don't have enough room in /system. I tried deleting boot anim, ringtones, even removing apps from the rom and gapps zip and nothing works.
TIA

Try This
it is the galaxyslide 1.0 rom by infinitybiff but with aps2ext ready to run
just download a terminal app and
$ su
Click always allow with super user
# cd /system/bin/
# sh a2sd reinstall
Things
will
pop
up
# phone will reboot
when restarted go back into terminal
$su
# cd /system/bin/
# sh a2sd cachesd
more
things
pop
up
#phone reboots
reboot may take 5min + this is ok dont worry
now when phone finally reloads you have aps2ext running
(also these commands can be run using adb just make sure phone is in clockwork mod recovery with system mounted! it is not required as i have tested this both ways and everything seems to work fine either way. if one way doesnt then try the other way)
All this is made possible by infinitybiff for the rom and the creator of the darktremor apps2sd method
if you want say the latest nightly instead of this let me know i can cook that up for you

also are you running the scripts from a terminal app or via adb on your comp? the reason it pops up not enough memory is because system is not able to mount as rw while not in recovery so it pops up not enough memory no matter what you remove. best way to run the scripts is to reboot phone into the clockwork recovery and mount system to your computer
then
adb remount
adb shell
sh /directory/with/script/firerat-patch183b.txt a2sd
it will do its job
the only real issue i have with the script is that it will not put the dalvik-cache onto the ext partition since it reads the phone as a mytouch.
This is the latest nightly 9/19 with aps2ext for those that want the stock cyan with aps2ext. its darktremor method again so the commands are the same as whats posted i the 2nd post

Im using my deodexed rom, not debloated, my ram is hanging at 183-185mb
any questions about script ask in the original thread.
any questions on working on continuum, post in this thread
phone is amazingly faster!
NOTE: looks like it unroots phone.
To reroot use superoneclick 2. 3. 3
I'm working on what we can do to stop this...
Good find! This is a good boost.. What this does is:
The phone has a selected amount of memory for it's tasks. Over time this memory gets used up. When the phone's memory reaches a specific amount the phone automatically deletes specific files.. In the process of all of this, everything is slowed down. What this script does is delete the cache which is using up the ram/memory. Instead of allowing the phone to manage this, this script deletes the files in a specific interval.. In this case, i think it is every hour(don't quote me)..
I utulized something similar to this in my previous rom.. it however lowered the point the phone deleted the items out of memory automatically.
Many scripts like this are out.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# Adrenaline Shot
sync;
sleep 1
echo "3" > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches;
echo "1" > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches;
sleep 1
echo " ** Turbo Boosted ** ";
One option you could do is create an init.d script to automatically run this(as long as you have imnuts' custom kernel installed)
Likewise, as long as you have busybox installed you should be able to make an sysctl script that will run this on boot.

Just flashed. Insta unroot. S1c rerooted fine. Here's my question. I looked, before I rooted again. Su is still in bin, and su and busybox are both in xbin. Maybe someone better with scripts can clear this up, but i can't see where the boost script should affect su at all. I looked at the updater script, and the boost script itself. I'd be very curious, if someone knows.

When you run this it removes all running scripts and applications from the ramdisk that are stored in the cache. Root is given at startup as well as other scripts being run only once, however they stay in the ram until the memory is needed, then they are replaced. This completly clears the cache.. for those running this, if you reroot your phone does this unroot it again after a specific amount of time? 1 hour or 1 day after the script is run?

To be honest, There was only an 11mb drop with me. But, that (such as it was) is back up. Just ran it again, kept SU, but usage actually increased... Figures, I'd have the retarded phone of the bunch. Kinda supports the whole 'phone reflects it's user' line of thought.
yeah i was confused when it unrooted me. i just pushed the files back in and activated root again. It has been a day already and i still have root. i had about a 30mb difference with me. it may not be much for others but for me every mb counts.
In script OP. not this threads OP. Is the fix for unroot problem.

What rom are you running btw?
Have you backed up the rom then tried to take the update to see if it is really the ota and not something else?
Edit: Worse case scenario, I can edit the build.prop file so the ROM thinks it is a current ICS build so it won't nag you any longer either.

1st off im sorry if anyone feel that i am hi-jacking their thread but i tried this method amongst other apks with no success im not sure why but this apk only worked for a day or so then it was back to square one so i am posting something i discovered and it defiantly worked for me and am posting to help others who like me had no success in using one of those update kill apk's this method i discovered tested and soo far has rendered success for me im not sure if it will prevent future updates after ff18 but it defiantly stopped my phone currently running stock el29 gb from updating or even asking to update to ff8 ics update you must have root
i am not responsible for anyone who screws their phones up this is just something i tried and definatly helped me so i wanted to share
my phone had already downloaded the update and kept nagging to update every 10 minutes or so when and if you try my method do not delete the ics update that will be found in the search as this method needs the update there and needs it to fail any modifications done to the system such as deleting device management , debloating ,custom bootloader should all result in a failed update attempt and this is what you want
1st obtain root of-course
2nd obtain root explorer or something equivalent
3rd from root explorer on 1st page select menue and do a search for "update"
4th look for file " /data/data/com.sprint.ce.updater/shared_prefs/com.sprint.ce.updater_preferences.xml" you will see retry mode value by default it is set to true, change it to false ( if you change any system files such as deleting device management or running custom bootloader it will fail) you want it to fail , buy changing the true value to false and allowing it to try to update even though you know it will fail it wont come back up with nagging notice to update atleast it worked for me hope helps someone else out there p.s after failed update attempt it may get stuck in bootloader with triangle or something just do battery pull then reboot then voila no more annoying msgs asking to update ,nearly a week now and no pop ups for me

Download and run Terminal Emulator.
Entter the following

That's it! You now have an on device backup and you won't have to redo it. If you need to restore, enter this
su
reboot nvrestore
Alternatively, there are two apps I know of that do this for you. Andromizer is one and is in the store. The other is nv backup/restore. I have a copy but don't remember where I got it or who to give credit to.

No, it gets saved to a different area of the phone, on a different partition. Recovery and Odin flashes won't touch it so it'll remain indefinitely, that's how I understand it anyway.
