mROM - Busybox included? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I have mROM installed which should have busybox by default. I do not see it listed. Is there a "special" way to open it?

Busybox isn't an app in apk form that you run. It adds (needed) functionality for some root apps. You shou have a busybox binary in /system/xbin.

[MOD] Script to clean up basic Darky's ROM 9.2 Resurrect Edtition

For anyone annoyed with the useless Dutch and otherwise unremovable things in Darky's ROM 9.2 I made a simple Bash script, to remove them without installing any additional applications. It was tested only on Darky's ROM 9.2 Resurrection Edition without installed third-party applications.
Steps: Get my script for cleaning up basic Darky's ROM 9.2 Resurrect Edition here, connect over USB in USB debugging mode, get ADB command to work (./bin/adblinux) and run ./cleandarky92.sh.
It will remove:
FileIndex
PressReader
Samsung
Telegraaf
DigiLezen
There are also other useless things you can remove by yourself with Task Manager if you are not using them:
Voodoo Control App (if you are using SpeedMod kernel)
FasterFix
More info on: http://gw.tnode.com/0469-Android/
For those who do not know what this is about, just ignore it... This was sent to the Q&A forum, because I don't have sufficient permissions to post to the development forums where it belongs with working links.
You could also just use Root Explorer and delete the .apk file in /system/app directory and then reboot your phone.
thats what i did anyway.

True, or copy it to another place. There are probably also other things that need to be cleaned up that is why I started writing this script.

We will for v9.3 - will be a clean new XWJS5 with a new way to install...
@OP
Thanks for the script - good temporary solution.
Or get Root uninstaller from the market, does the same thing as Root explorer (uninstall stock apps), but for free .

you shouldn'd remove that
this app allows you to control the voodoo sound settings - for every kernel that is using voodoo sound, as speedmod does

Wow, thanks heaps for the notice as I was just going to try to solve this flashing a stable rom.
At the moment I even get an error when I try to reinstall the app from the market... will try to do it manually and google some more for possible fixes.
Greets
Just reinstalled the latest stable, cleared market data, and Samba Filesharing seems to work. Perhaps it had something to do with the auto app install after rom flash kicking in and messing things up... glad to be back on track.

Guys, install Busybox v1.18.5 by Stericson. Looks like the Samba File Sharing app only works with this version.

The installer of busybox from the market can't install it on cm7 v1.5...
Daaaammmnnn.... So for now we are stucked with no samba fs?
Maybe some guru will help => How to change installed busybox on CM (safely) to get Samba Filesharing working again?
I just cant stand my phone without samba filesharing...
Just checking, but have you guys tried the developers latest updated version of the app, available on the xda forum???
I had emailed him with issues, he emailed me the link to his forum here on xda, which has attached his latest development.. I suppose it will be available on the market soon enough.. But, that is how I got mine working.
Good luck

I was having the same problems using Samba on my Arc (CM7.1) - I resolved it by downloading the latest Dev version of the Samba app from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8239139&postcount=128
At the bottom of that post, click to show the QR code for 'SambaFilesharing-dev-110905.zip', or download it directly and transfer to your phone.
After installing that version, Samba now works fine with CM7.1. Hope that helps.

CIFS.ko for stock 4.0.4 [updated for IMM76I]

#compiled new cifs.ko, md4.ko, nls_utf8.ko for the new
IMM76I build
kernel number
3.0.8-gda6252b
attachment "cifs_gda6252b.zip"
------------------------------------------------------------------
hi there, i have compiled modules for CIFS to work on the stock 4.0.4 kernel.
kernel number must match "3.0.8-g034fec9"
in the attached zip,
here are the list of files.
cifs.ko
md4.ko
#above 2 are required to have it work
#here are native language support.
nls_utf8.ko
nls_cp932.ko
nls_cp936.ko
nls_cp950.ko
#above cp9xx are support for chinese characters.
nls_euc-jp.ko
#above is support for japanese letters.
thank you.
additional notes.
apparently you do not need any other native language support apart from utf8
the trick is, during the mounting process, you will need to specify the "iocharset=utf8" under options.
eg
"mount //192.168.15.123/a /home/b/c -t cifs -o username=d,password=e,uid=f,gid=g,iocharset=utf8"
for cifs manager, just put "iocharset=utf8" under the Options, and you should be able to see all different charsets.
do remember you will need to load the nls_utf8.ko
once you have the module install,
you can use cifs manager to manage your mounts.
(you can also set cifs manager to load this module for you).
Thanks, I'll give it a try later today.

make sure that you have the correct stock kernel.
must match "3.0.8-g034fec9" else insmod will fail.
if anyone of you are running other version of kernel, i can try compile if for you as well, but let me know your kernel version.
do note, i have not tried compiling for other version, it might and might not work.

Common Internet File System, is another name for SMB (Server Message Block) also known as Samba. It's most commonly used in Microsoft Windows networks for providing shared network access to files, printers and other services.
These modules allows you to mount a shared directory from your windows computer, on your phone.
I use it to watch movies and play Mp3 on my phone, which is stored on my (windows) media server.

this is the shared library cifs manager is complaining about.
hence you need to download and insmod it.
note. you will need to be rooted to do this.

/etc/init.d support in AK Purity kernel?

I'm using the AK Purity kernel 0.30 along with Andorid 4.2.2 stock. I've notice a file named 99zipalign in /system/etc/init.d/ so I've supposed that this kernel supports init.d. I've placed a custom file 00akkern in that folder, for setting the kernel governor at boot time:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# ==============================================================
# CPU settings
# ==============================================================
echo interactivex > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor;
echo 350000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/screen_off_max_freq;
These commands work fine in terminal. Then I've fixed permissions:
Code:
chmod 755 00akkern
But it's not working!
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
Still getting interactive, that's the default.
Thanks :fingers-crossed:

supporting init.d scripts or not isn't the kernel thing... it's the ROM thing.
if you are using stock rom (probably the factory image I guess...), you should get rooted your phone and install busybox on rom
after that init.d scripts will work fine

Thank you very much! I've asked a question in the AK thread about support for init.d and no one has mentioned the fact that's it's a ROM feature. Yes, I'm stock. Which busybox should I install? Should I configure it for enabling init.d support?

I'm not remembering precise name of it... maybe Stericson's Busybox in Play Store. Download it and install busybox at /system/xbin folder.
And after that if your device's permission of /system/etc/init.d and scripts file inside of it has set right(755, check it via root explorer or other file explorers that can have root access), one rebooting of nexus will make the scripts start to work
[sorry for my awful english i know mine is quite bad... but i'm learning and practicing it!]

I've ended up installing busybox lmanually (busybox --install -s /system/xbin). Busybox commands works fine, but my init.d script still doesn't work! Any idea?
Permissions of /system/etc:
Code:
drwxr-xr-x root root 2013-03-09 22:14 init.d
Inside /system/etc/init.d:
Code:
-rwxr-xr-x root shell 1425 2008-08-01 14:00 99zipalign
-rwxr-xr-x root shell 317 2013-03-09 16:47 99akkernel
init.d is fully working into kernel.
Have you launch script with scriptmanager before put into init.d folder?
Do you have any errors?

Thank you for helping anarkia! You were right: there was a problem with the file (line endings). I've edited it using vi and now the governor part works. The only think that does not work is setting the screen_off_max_freq.
When i boot i get interactivex and 700000 (wrong). After manually executing sh 99akkernel i get the correct values: interactivex and 350000
Is there any restriction about screen_off_max_freq that I don't know?
You can try to add "sleep x" command before screen off.

[TOOL/APP] Busy Box 1.24

I noticed how difficult it was to get busybox installed on my nexus 9. So, I decided to compile busybox and I went with version 1.24 instead of the default 1.22.1. Maybe this will help someone, maybe not. I am currently using it on my nexus 9 and its working great. I am pretty sure you can figure out what to do with the files. Symlinks are included, customize to your needs. Link for download posted below!
WARNING
There is an applet named "su" in the symlinks folder under bin. DO NOT INSTALL THIS. IT WILL OVERWRITE YOUR SU BINARY AND YOU WILL LOSE ROOT.
