The smaller things, that you want less! - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Thanks in advance to any contributions. Oh, your welcome sir, thank you. No no no, thank you. No, thank you, NO! THAAANK YOU!
Let me follow that argument with a little-known proverberal question of mine...
If i show Christopher Reeves a door, will he walk through it?
Didn't focus in home ec. So i don't know much,
These were from WiMAX settings that have performance in mind.

Kobridge es el hombre! I don't exaggerate I'm my findings, his tweaks, tweaked back toward performance a little, that is with screen, data, Wimax, all location assistance, while up and downloading a rom and a bunch of dbox stuff... Did a bunch of tests... bunch more tests...That's an incredible battery life for how I used it that cycle, thanks

I already hit about 1.5 megabytes a second it can get faster?

Will these changes stick through a rom change or does it need to be re-applied each time?
Also, IdleSleep: preferential. (I use 600) When I entered 600 it barked back that 300 is the max value.

Lol the nickname "Payloader" is credited to Swype
Be back soon. I am going to install a ROM and all of my favorite apps load themselves thanks to Samsung's Sprint partition. Also going to test for the first if it is safe to transfer zips from one ROM to another.
THIS IS PROBABLY DANGEROUS SO DO NOT TRY IT YET UNTIL ALL OF YOU HAVE ON YOUR HUGGIES!
Well, I'm here. I guess two calk wipe all+ reactive's two+ factory reset after a failed attempt when i forgot that calks romstripper relives the pre install.. isn't enough to kill my preinstaller. I made a video... Camera died. Can make another if it's important.
Oh, screw it...
MAKE SURE YOU ARE CAREFUL!

All ready a thread about this. Here

It has the settings for wimax and 3g. They work to my 3g is way better since using it.

Honestly, for all i know everyone has i this. Was trying to better understand net settings because a lot of people have not been getting the best they can, despite what a speed test says.
This is a library of simulated net settings, tests, results and how to simulate (thats the part I'm interested in, how to simulate them) i don't remember what is all included. It may out dated, it seems worth a glance.

Create shortcut (using Nova/Apex activities, or the app AnyCut) to "Data; Debug"
It will be under com.android.sprint menu.
Choose above mentioned DATA DEBUG
Enter MSL
Click on "WiMAX Mode"
Try ALL options to see which give your area the best speeds.
I waited to post this until I got feedback from others (seeing as its my first thread and I don't want to burn) who tried it and the results are in. EVERYONE that has reported back to me has confirmed MORE THAN DOUBLE their average 4g Speeds. Mine have almost tripled.
Screen shots coming. I haven't tested FE16 modem yet and so far my best results were on FD19 at a whopping 1400kB/s! Notice the capital b!
Loosen up your WiMAX, babe!

Ignore these idiots. I've tried to put up helpful information before and people are just stupid. I swear 75% of people on this site just refuse to read a thread at all before they post.
Just the op doesn't count.
I looked at the other thread and I'm interested in ANY new information that may or may not help sprints crappy speeds.
If you're not too put off by peoples negativity, I'm getting a modem error after entering my MSL. I would love to use your tweak, and would appreciate the help. I'm on cm9 a4 with fe16 modem.
The nova shortcuts work great to get into the debug menu, btw. Those menus just appear broken for me on cm9. Next time I'm on a touchwiz ROM I'll try this again.

Yes, these settings stick through a ROM change. (just checked after 2 rom installs with 3 format alls and 2 factory resets, for an unrelated subject)
I thought 300 might be default max, I'm not sure where I made the change that made that one stick. I'll look for it now. Even though 300 is plenty

I read elsewhere that the dialer codes are touchwiz specific. So you'd have to be on stock fe16 for them to work, i believe.
It was either that or they are a no go for ics yet, but i'm pretty sure stock fe16 will do the trick. May want to look that up.
lol, to prove your point, i haven't read the last few posts on page 1 before i posted, so I was not aware that this was discussed like it was.

AnyCut would have the same result, probably. Sometimes even though the functionality of the hidden menu is intact the user-interface is not. (I have the same issues trying to put AOSP stuff on my TW...)

I'm pretty sure my best 4g speed so far was in the 1.4 MB/s range. This doesn't mean that your speeds won't increase with a certain "mode."

Yes. I think you are finally on the right page, the dialer codes are stock dialer specific and that is what the shortcuts mentioned can help with. Even if a ROM is entirely stock except for dialer, the service codes are a no go.
I think I'll try to "catch it in the act" so to speak and see what the actual commands involved are. I'm sure the right use of a terminal emulator could get this done I just happen to be a different type of nerd...

Made these changes and my 4G is just greyed out o.o
Also, changing modems won't do anything to the settings right?
Edit: Got 4G to work. Running speed tests, but nothing seems very different. Getting 1.5 Mbps on stock EL26 but will run more

I am on the VeNuM ICE rom and all works well for me..Thanks Kebetz

Dude, i gotta say... i had my doubts but effin "A" man!! what a tremendous increase in speed and connectivity. I'd put up some screenshots but i didn't even bother to take before pics.. but maybe i had one from a couple weeks ago. I'm actually restoring my AOKP backup right now. I had to go to a Wiz rom just to test this and it blew me away. I live 50 miles south of Houston, TX and it was hitting a server in Wichita freakin Kansas and consistently hitting 5mBps+ could not friggin believe it...
Thanks. Much thanks

You are welcome, sirs.
I was starting to get frustrated because it is sooooo easy to test but everyone dismissed it so quickly. Ive been using these for a while now and always have good results. Here are todays, been testing a few other settings that Im not comfortable posting yet.. not until they prove solid. Note how close Im getting to WiFi speeds...

Those Extensions that I mentioned work best is moderate coverage and are designed to keep your signal when you rightfully should. You may try tightening it up to
EntryRx/CINR/Delay -99/5/30
I find these to provide a more usable connection when I have poor coverage.

[ROM] *Updated* 6/27/11

This is a little update to the mostly stock ROM I posted when we first got the NS4G. It is mostly the same, I updated the kernel to matr1x 1.2ghz cfs kernel. Its been working well for me. It is deodexed/zipaligned. It has dreamsforgotten's Quick Panel mod, so huge thanks to him for the time he put in porting it. I removed any apps that can be downloaded from the market, I think g-mail and voice are newer than the ones that came on the phone.
Here is another small update. I updated the market, tweaked a few things, and added the matr1x cfs kernel by mathkid95. It is oc'd to 1.2 at boot so setcpu is not needed.
ROM v.0.1.1
ROM v.0.1.1 w/Matr1x 1.4 and smartass
This new kernel still boots at 1.2, but it has a 1.4 slot also. It is also bfs.

No sd card, like its not mounted? Try a reboot and see if that helps. My phone has been doing that since I rooted, before I even put this on it. A reboot helped.

Sure enough - that worked. Weird. Hadn't noticed that in the 2 days since I've been rooted. I only noticed it because I went in to Titanium to restore apps and they weren't being detected. Problem solved I guess!
And thanks mikey - I tried other ROMs for non-4g NS and I can't get a data connection with any of them.
Any devs know what is causing the sd to unmount? I was having the issue just stock rooted also.

Your welcome My sd unmounted sometime earlier, I tried to take a pic of my kids and the camera told me to mount sd before using camera. Its happened a few times randomly. It was for sure happening to me before I ever flashed anything, so I dont know what it could be.
What benefit does deodexing do?
None. It just gives you the ability to theme and modify things. Some say it slows things down, others say its faster deodexed. We may see a theme or two in the next few days..its nice to have options til the CM guys figure this out. I was just trying to help, maybe get the ball rolling on things. Also, even if you don't want to flash this, netarchy's kernels are awesome, I recommend flashing one of those at a minimum.

Personally, I'm very happy you put this together. If nothing else, it validated for me that the other ROMS for non-4g ns are not going to work out of the box.
As I stated earlier, I had zero data services on multiple flashed ROMS. This is the first one that has worked flawlessly...obviously meaning there are definitely differences in some files for ns. Vs. Ns4g and ROMS will need to be tweaked for them to work correctly.
Thanks again for the work.

Mod's, I for one, would appreciate a separate Sprint/CDMA Nexus 4G section please. I've already seen a couple of our members unknowingly flash the wrong ROM and radios!
Yeah let's spread the Nexus S community some more, if anything we need the Nexus S community to stay together. OPs just need to label their post with what phone it corresponds to.
users should look at the title post date before flashing anything.. again, the OP is not responsible for any bricks or anything like that. flashing risks are upon the user.
if you split the Nexus S and Nexus S 4G community... it'll only be Sprint users and it'll probably be a deadzone whereas the main "Nexus S" forum would consist users from around the world with the only exception as the NS4G... you really want your own separate forum where it barely has anybody else? the only forum that would have a difference would be "Android Dev." Q&A/General/Themes/Accessories are the same.
I'm sure compatibility will come forward shortly. Netarchy's kernel for the Nexus S is compatible with NS4G, its in the same flashable .zip too. I don't see why ROMs wouldn't follow this. Just give it some time.
When going to 4g settings, i get a force close. Wiped all too
Uncle Jimmy says hello
The chances of bricking by flashing wrong rom are pretty slim, afik. We will be fine with a single ns section. people will just have to read a little before they flash a rom.
That being said, has anyone found any issues with this rom yet? Other than it needs appwidgetpicker.apk added

Thanks for getting my back. I did a lot of research, for the last few months or so. I only removed bloat system apps from the ROM. I agree, could've been more descriptive, but I didn't want to list like 60 apps and take up space. Now, the contacts that were in the system are TW based. Everything was taken from datajosh's FF18 stock rooted deodexed, and then themed from ev1lart toxic theme that I ported over form the sgh-t989. Everything worked with the exception of Contacts as stated above. I have since put everything back the stock exchange and email back and tested, but same problem, and after doing so the SystemUI wouldn't function correctly. So i rolled back to original to still have contacts FC. I was hoping maybe an experienced dev wouldn't mind downloading and taking a look. Maybe see something I had overlooked is all.
Also, forgot to mention that I am in the process of re-themeing

I've fought with apk's for a long time and come to find out, there's a frickin corrupt .9.png file or something else somewhere not allowing me to compile correctly even though it's looking like it is. The trick is anything you decompile, it pops up a status window letting you know if the decompile went well. It's a pretty advanced tool and supports ICS.
BTW: How noob? You're double checking/setting system permissions when you push apps correct?

The trick is anything you decompile, it pops up a status window letting you know if the decompile went well. It's a pretty advanced tool and supports ICS.
BTW: How noob? You're double checking/setting system permissions when you push apps correct?

OK. I have all sorts of tools. Autoapktool works great decompiling, but not so good with recompiling. Agat63 does some awesome work though, he has mad skills. I wouldn't be anywhere without all the great devs here. I use the original apktool for most, but there is a new ics apktool I use (apktool for ics basically. These two I use exclusively for de/recompile, unless I just want the res really quick. I use auto in order to create flashables and such.... I have tried stock and tried to add via root explorer individually. Once again, contacs is a no go, and neither is systemUI. Also tried pushing using GangsKidz kitchen. Pushes the right way every time. But, still no joy. Dazed is going to take a look to see what he can find, but for now I think I am just going to start over.....

Thanks. We would have nothing if it weren't for ev1lArt. He did the majority, and created all the icons, I just took them to our device and applied them. I created a theme, but the testing of it went just as well as my ROM, so it is on hold until I find out which exact apk(s) is(are) f'd up. I have also cleaned it up quite a bit.
Ok everyone. I ha e discovered my mistake. The pro lem.lies.within the idiot that made.it....me. Seriously though. The theme was just fine and dandy, but I used the assets from the ported framework, hence why everything went awry. I searched for 6-7 hours straight to figure this one out. With that being said, I have semester finals this week. I will get back on this on Thursday or Friday this week. Hope to have this bad boy themed and ripping out next week. Also, what are thoughts about an apple osx themed rom? Im not much an iphan <-- get it? But I do have a Mac, and like osx. Just wanted some input. Thank you everyone who has helped with suggestions and tools. I was losing m mind, chasing my tail for hours....

I believe if it will be a theme that we can try out, that would be a nice option. If it is going to be entire rom based on that theme, I'm not certain how that will be recieved but you just never know.
Edit: Sorry, just being honest.

That would be great. As stated above, I won't start until Thursday or Friday, these finals are killing me. I did notic most were in code. Found all that out when trying to recompile.

I am a realy Big fan since version 7 the Installer shows so much spunk!!!
I realy think keeping everything for Clark44 in one spot will help him in further creation of his rom.
After spending time with this rom all i can think about is how do I donate to keep it going?
I can not wait for the themes to come out for this Rom.
***First question Clark. May I use Setcpu and Ram Manager with your Rom?

goo rom manager question
I do not want to loose the abilty to save recoveries to my extSdCard. So I am afraid to switch from CWM version that i am using.
The question is, can we use the Goo Manager to download the zip then use the CWM to flash it ?
I am just not sure if it packed and repack the same way.
Youtube isn't working when I'm on the go, using my 3g. But it works fine when I connect to Wifi. Maybe I did something wrong or maybe it just my phone?
Clark44 never sleeps...he is a rom machine
I noticed on the messaging app that the vibration when silent option was absent with .7. I don't need my phone vibrating when I get texts with sound on so I was wondering if there was a way to get that back. Thanks.

No S-Voice options please
The installer is very cool. This is now my goto build for installing modems, I can install them at install then update PRL with one build.
I can't live with S-voice though, it just can't call the people I want and... don't get me started on it.
I hoped choosing not to install the removed Samsung apps would include S-voice but I still get it when I make a BT voice dial.
Is there any way to have the option to not have S-voice and use Google voice instead?
Thanks!
Thanks for posting this thread! I can't post in the dev forums yet (too new) so I had no way to get into the conversation.
I've got two questions.
1. Is anyone using JuiceDefender with this Rom? I'm used to it from my Samsung Galaxy Epic, but I wasn't sure if it's needed on this ROM. I like some of the features (Location aware Wifi, etc) but maybe not if it's sacrificing battery.
2. (For Clark) On version .8, is there any way to build in some of the color/theme options from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28676439 ? I'm not a big fan of green, so I would love to change the colors of the battery and the 15 toggles...

Well, I think it depends on how you use your phone. For me at least, JuiceDefender has helped out TREMENDOUSLY. I live in an area with bad reception and I'm constantly going in and out of roaming. Having all my data turned off while I'm not using the phone really helps boost my battery life (and not having to do so manually is worth the $5 in my opinion).
Without JD I'm at about 10-15% when I get home from work (10 hr work days). With JD I'm at about 30% when I get home.
I guess everyone's mileage may vary, but if you've already bought JD you might as well try and see if it helps your battery life.
side note: I also love the night tint in JD
I've actually got a couple of questions with this ROM.
First, though, I have to say this is a phenomenal ROM. I initially flashed it solely as a stop-gap while waiting for CM10 to come out for my Sprint GSIII, but it quickly has become my daily driver.
So with the installer on the 0.0.7 version, there are multiple radios. Is there any advantage in flashing one of those, or just leaving it be? Also I really like the CRT animations and beats audio, but it wasn't there in the 0.0.7 version, so I just went with 0.0.6. Is there a way to get it on the 0.0.7 version or have those features been disabled? I went off the video review on youtube, linked but for some reason, on my version, little to no features were on mine compared to the review video. Is there a way to enable them on the newest version? Thanks.
It got lost on the main thread, but awesome beats will be back in .8 (he forgot to put it in .7) and crt was broken by Samsung

Nice thread you guys have going on here
As for themeing. Let me explain how im going to have this system setup at latest by v0.0.9.
I've done some research and finally found an app that will do the following:
1. Notify when update is available
2. Allow user to download themes, bootanimations, apps, flashables, all within the app and all supplied by me.
3. Allow the user to read the changelog of upcoming buids on the go.
The link to this app is here
Now i already started migrating the boot animation option i already finished in Aroma installer into this app and that should be done very soon. Themers will also be able to send me whatever they make and i can make it an option in the app!
This will benefit us in the following:
1. Aroma installer stays and installs kernels, modems, and mods
2. ROM size doesn't go up to 2GB when i add in all the themes ect. (Size will always be around 860)
3. Users can change their theme and UI mods on the go without having to reinstall the ROM.
I'm trying to make customization available without having to reinstall the entire ROM. This will give us the best of both worlds.
I'm working on this as we speak so I might dissapear from XDA for a little bit while i stay on my train of thought But in spite of everything...this is going to get a whole lot better.

No on CRT, see back a page or two with a draft of the mods in next release.
The radio's are the different modems you can choose, there have been three releases (updates) and the original that came with the phone. That is what the radios are.
Radio=baseband=modem

Are there any advantages/disadvantages in flashing a different modem to the phone? It seems to be a consensus that LF9 gives better signal, but I'm afraid for the drawbacks.
Downloading .8 now. Very excited.
Clark, I have a small request for .9.
Any chance you can add on my favorite bootanimation from my Samsung Epic days?
It's the third link found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033274
(I'm also a big fan of the blue shutdown animation, but that's not nearly as big of a priority.)
Thanks!
I don't see the video icon when using Google Talk. I used to have it before I flash 0.0.8. Any ideas, I can get it back? Thanks

I errored out in swlite said it couldn't open com port.
So I used odin, couldn't load back up rom to set usb back to abd so my odin had both coms open. When I flashed in odin it flashed successful but other port said fail. I booted up anyway. Wifi works. Don't know about network though. Maybe i500 radio?

Did y'all ever figure out network?
I deodexed and debloated most apks. Rooted and busyboxed etc. And lightly themed (imgs only no mods yet)
I messed up the first time in pushing deoapks, so I had a bunch of fcs. So I used odin to get back. This time only one com connected so everything was fine, since y'all already got it flashed id suggest flashing through odin.
I got like 8 hrs of hw to catch up on. My son had a bithday weekend and I didn't do school. Ill pull my system and odin tar it for y'all later when I got a free hour.

Totally guessing on this, but I don't think its a problem with the radio as much as authenticating with the network. Mine shows that its getting a broadband signal, but always says connecting. Verizon had me manually enter an Akey and change some CDMA settings, but still no luck. Found that some Facinate users were having the same issue, and had to have a DMU (?) reset. Thats all well over my pay grade...

Well I won't rush the odin since modem isn't issue. But if y'all fix it then we can all bask in gb (besides wifi) together.

He had me go into service mode: dailer>**772
Spc code>000000
"down" button to SVC mode
CDMA home SID
80
He said the 80 was wrong had me change it, I THINK it was 5577...no promises. BUT, just got my new phone programmed and it has 80 so....
Also had me enter a new Akey...29 digit #, and it rotates and is phone specific according to the tech.
I will go back into it on both phones and compare the settings, see if anything is different...report back in a few.
Ok, only thing different was MEID# and ESN#...probably not much help there.

Thread made due to the demand of the rom.
★Thank these guys and their team for the rom and all their hard work !★
i hope you asked the Developer for permission to post this...i think there's a reason why his thread is closed.

The reason the thread is closed is not because the developer is angry at all or anything like that. He no longer has the time to support the ROMs at the moment, I was suspicious to to the ROM's disappearance but was alerted he posted the reason he closed development on his G+. This ROM was taken offline when the new one came up, that's all. Thanks OP.

Yeah out of respect, I agree. Though Mike and Annex in the past have not cared for others posting their work, maybe that's why the OP didn't ask, and out of high demand.
But hey, I wonder if Annex's KitKat theme will work on here..? It debuted on Illusions 4.3..

Wowowow i did ask, i contacted Ramsay and did not get a response and did not even know what happened until i check my google and facebook, however, and i will say i did NOT get explicit permission, Ramsey has NEVER cared and i do NOT expect him to get back to me any time soon because of whats going on. I am 99.99% sure he will not care that im, if anything, supporting his awesome rom.
PS- now i want to try that kit kat theme xD
They were just looking out for the dev is all. All too often people will post someone else's work without asking first, sometimes they give proper cred, sometimes they don't. But the decent thing regardless of your intentions is to ask first, which you said you did. And thank you for clarifying that btw.
Tbh, after reading the OP, I thought the exact same thing. Always do when it's not mentioned. You obviously appreciate the devs work on this Rom, and saranhai was simply looking out for them and their interests. I don't believe it was meant as accusatory at all.
Anyway, just thought I'd offer up a bit of explanation. Thanks for posting this, I know a lot of people are going to be very pleased to see it here!

Yea i get it i jut dont understand 2 things..
1. All his work EVERYTHING is up for download, so couldnt i just modify a few settings, add some wall papers, maybe some of your Modem tweaks as default and this would qualify at least as S3 Development.
2. So because the thanks was in regular text size and not colored that doesnt count as thanks !? The hassle i went through to put this togther and the 2-4 days waiting for a reply for Ramsay...(i put thanks to him and his team on the top and bottom of the post when i FIRST posted it... i even posted PICTURES OF THE GUYS AT THE BOTTOM).
Im stressed, Im active duty military and tried to something nice for these people on my time off. -.-"

By all means were just looking out for the devs and you, you violate any rules on XDA and you can get banned easily we wouldn't want that would we? I and I'm sure the rest of the d2tmoers here are glad someone had this ROM still and uploaded it for us. Thank you, I'm using it currently.
As the Kit Kat theme is concerned, its Friday and I have nothing else better to do I'll rip it from 4.3 and let everyone know.

Wow
Wow this ROM is amazing! I've tried cm10, liquidsmooth, and pacman countless times, but this rom is perfection. Thanks for the link, I wanted to try 4.3 illusion but it seems extremely buggy. I too have not found any bugs on this rom yet (finger crossed), not bad for a discontinued beta. I wish they would of continued working on 4.3

Trust me, your putting this up is very much appreciated! And don't let any of us add to your stress level, try to remember that in these posts, tone is near impossible to convey perfectly. If someone is going to verbally attack though, you'll know it. There are lots of times our posts are short and pointed, but it's simply because we already do a lot here and just want to make the point and move on. I promise you that nothing said here so far was meant personally or negatively at all. To me, xda can be a great place to escape real life for a while and still be constructive with your time. I hope this proves true for you as well!
As to your questions:
1. It's kind of hard to say tbh. Technically it's probably not considered development if you just make some minor changes/improvements, tweaks, and do a bit of theming to an existing, previously developed Rom. I think it would probably have to be determined by the amount of modification you do. Maybe someone else can chime in on this one, or you could always ask a mod what they think.
I've seen some releases in the development section that definitely would not meet the criteria, so once you implement some changes and make it yours, so to speak, I wouldn't see it as any kind of problem to move it there. Until then it will probably be viewed as more of a support thread though.
2. The part that was in question wasn't with how you thanked and gave credit to the dev. You did perfectly fine on that. The thing we didn't see addressed was whether or not you sought permission from them before posting. Knowing now that you did, it's not an issue at all. But there have been plenty of times where someone would post someone else's work, and give proper credit to the dev, but never asked if they were ok with them posting it. Even though their intentions in some instances were pure, it often would end up with the dev getting pissed and the thread being closed or removed.
Speaking for myself, whenever I see something familiar posted by someone other than the original developers, I automatically wonder if they got permission to do so. And if it's not stated, I or someone else will ask. It's not to be mean or to cause problems, but more to prevent them, and as stated, to look out for the devs interests. None of us wants to see them leave due to lack of respect or common courtesy.
Getting too long so I'll leave it at that! Thanks again!
This all being said, I've been working on speeding up and prolonging battery life. It's already smooth, so I'm just going to squeeze as much battery life out of it as possible. I will either release files you can push, or a .zip depending on everyone's preferences. That being said, battery life was nice, 4hrs, 30 minutes off my first charge cycle of on screen time. I'll upload the pic soon.
1. First line of work is the build.prop
2. Second line of work is within the init.d
3. Third line of work is going to be replacing the kernel with either KT747/Lean
4. Fourth line of work is going to be recommending/including a good inverted GAPPS package

That's pretty cool maybe some can do that but not all phones react the same way to overclocking and under volting.

Love this ROM! Haven't found one glitch yet and battery life is great! I'm keeping this as my new daily. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, a zip would be great. I have pretty decent battery life already, but any way to squeeze out more would be great. I also use the kt747 kernel, but when I attempted to use the TK mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2207286 in conjunction with it, it completely messes up when I try to apply their build.prop mod.

Yeah, TKMod works great! We discovered a couple months ago with the latest release that their modified build.prop was not working for us for some reason. Go ahead and install TKMod but keep your current build.prop. And I use the sysctrl & modified Crossbreader too.
EDIT: from RErick in the above mentioned link-
"Uninstall the build.prop. its not that important. If it doesn't work it doesn't need to be there. Obviously we would Luke for everyone to have it, but its not our pride and joy. If the sysctrl and cross breeder works that's 95 percent of the good stuff"
Works for me!
DEVICE: SGH-T999 + ROM: Illusions 4.2.2 + KERNEL: KT747 - LJ7 + TK Mod 2.4 + Crossbreader = A FREAKIN' BEAST! now Free

Ohh okay nice, but can I ask how did you get init.d installed for the sysctrl mod? Should I use Uni-Init? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933849
