Hi all,
I could be wrong, but the fonts and icons (UI in general) on the M8 seems to be awfully big. I've tried editing the build.prop to a different dpi but it gets reverted back to default (480).
I've tried xposed and per app settings for a temp fix on some of the chat applications, it works, but that's not efficient.
Anyone got a way to change the dpi on our M8?
Thanks!
pull the build.prop via adb
edit with notepad ++ to the dpi u want
reboot phone into TWRP
adb push /sdcard/build.prop
adb shell
mount /system
cp -p /sdcard/build.prop /system/
chmod 777 the build.prop
reboot

Did that, and the phone wouldn't boot now..
All I did was modifying the build.prop, pushed it, copied the file over, chmod.

644 should work

What DPI did you choose, are all the apps still working?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
Chmod the modded build.prop to 644, it works flawless.
Widgets don't scale properly, blinkfeed works, everything else works as is. Most htc app didn't change dpi.
Changed to Nova launcher and everything looks much better.

For roms using stock keyboard and failing to install this one, do this in adb :
Code:
adb shell
su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /system/app/LatinIME* /sdcard/
rm /system/app/LatinIME*
pm uninstall com.android.inputmethod.latin
exit
exit
Now install this like a regular app.

Recall that adb is your friend.
Do adb logcat
Run the app and see why it force closes.

Trying to push system odex files, from a different ROM to my current. I've fixed permissions, etc. I can't get it to install. Btw, its the sense clock widget. No matter what I do, I can't find it in the widget list. Even after a reboot. What am i missing? The ROMs are compatible, same Sense version. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

So you are trying to push the HtcClockWidget.apk from your pc to your phone? Have you tried using a file manager to move the file to the app folder?

Have you set group and owner to root? Actually pushing from a pc should give it the correct owner and group, using a file explorer wont. Other than that im not sure why it wont show up.

Thank you, but I just restored a nandroid. I was trying to get the EVO classic minimal flip clock on my current hybrid. I'm gonna look at the EVO mikg hybrid. It got a theme with the same clock.

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.

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.

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.
I've Googled this and not found anything I could understand. debuggerd.bin is asking for root permissions. What is it? Ive never seen it ask on any of my other devices, apparently it's something to do with the Android OS. Why is it asking for root? Should I allow it? I am running MOAR v 1.1.
Any insight is greatly appreciated!
Sent from my SIII
I can't say for sure but I've never seen it before. Definitely suspicious. I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say you don't have supersu pro. Noww is Def a time when full logging would come in handy
I set it to log the debuggerd.bin and rebooted. Now its not using the access. I had JUST rebooted from a permissions fix when it asked for the permission and I posted this. I am at a total loss here.....
Sent from my SIII
If you dont know what it is, dont give permissions. If you find that any app is acting wonky, still dont give permissions and see if uninstalling that app removes that file asking for permissions
Sent from my PG06100
I have since denied it permission. Think I'll post about it in the ROM thread. Maybe someone there can shed some light on what the heck it is or why it would be asking for root.

Yes. They are link2sd commands. Do you have any other lag apps or mods? Seeder? I can confirm it was Crossbreeder for me. I denied and forgot debuggerd.bin and installed the new version of Crossbreeder with the fix and debuggerd.bin has not asked for permissions again. But you are correct that link2sd uses the same command line for what it does. I also use link2sd and have not had this problem with it. Try going to that thread.

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.
