Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

get following error when trying to type any letter or number:

custom: line 65: syntax error: ")" unexpected (expecting ";;")

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

just above the line that starts 1) i put the following:

echo " ";;

that fixes the syntax error

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Ops guys :$ .... forgive me :eek:

Small error adding the reboot :p
I had forgotten a pair of ;; ... :)

FIxed ;)

still not working on my end.
please specfy

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

i think hes fixed it but on line 65 you will see lines above and under it have

echo " ";;

except for one of the commands that ends in reboot. if on the line below you do the same as all the others. i.e add that line above then save it should work.

The echo " " is only to make the output more readable

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Great script! Thanks. However, after modding icons, I see bunch of pictures in Photos, kinda annoying. Any idea to get rid of that? Will my icons disappear if I delete them in photos? Anything to do in custom_en folder?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Fantastic scritp Dany.. Just wanted to inform something...

Hildon desktop has recieved some updates as mentioned in the post
http://www.forums.internettablettalk...9&postcount=70

Can we use the deb mentioned there for the custom hildon..it is supposed to fix the submenu/battery drain problem.. I am using this modified hildon for some time and i see better battery times

I changed the custom file to

h|H) dpkg -i $FDIR/hildon/hildon-desktop_2.2.138-1+0m5_armel.deb
echo "Package: hildon-desktop
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 1001" >> /etc/apt/preferences
killall hildon-desktop
echo "Customized Hildon-desktop installed and pinned"
echo " " ;;

I also placed the modified hildon in the "hildon folder.."

I think that should take care of installing the fixed hildon..

Thank you :)

After customizations you can safely delete che custom_en folder :)
No mod will be lost ;)

Or, if you want to keep the directory there, use tracker cfg to configure the multimedia tracker ;)

Unfortunately it seems that the number indicating the version is always the same .. o.O

Also known that with some updated version, should be able to configure scrolling with a string in the file transitions.ini ..COOL!

But I also found another version of Hildon desktop (thanks to my great colleague Tiger of maemomeego.net) which, besides allowing you to choose the degree scrolling (with a terminal command this time and not through transitions.ini) , you can add new desktops. (Yes, I know, it exist from a long time .. but before the package didn' t implemented scrolling)

http://translate.google.it/translate...94%26start%3D0

Now I don't know which version to include in the package ... :/
The one that allows you to add the desktops wouldn't be a bad idea ... especially to be used with a pair of QBW to increase and decrease the number of desktops.

What do you think about this, guys? :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

hi...

I have lots of mods like themes (images and backgrounds), splashscreens, fonts, sounds, and lots more.
Can I create folders in the icon folder so the script will run them?
Or does the script need to be edited?

But for the rest of ou personalizazions.. the command aren't right ... for example fonts and sounds uses some different directories... So you should add some command to the script .

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

understood...

let's hope I get it right...

also...
could you add a version number on the rar?
So I can keep track of updated versions in my PC

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Amazing what a difference the swappiness mod made in terms of responsiveness (in the menus, app switching, etc)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

thank you very much for the script, if you can improve with more addons and a ui, it would be AWESOME, pretty usefull btw

cheers

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Thanks for the script.Works really nice.

The swappiness mod makes difference in ebery part of the system .. ;)
If you search swappiness definition.. you'll find that it is the tendency to use the swap ...
But why should it use the swap (space on the memory chip that acts as a ram) if we got 256 mb of VERY faster memory? :)

So this mod should improve both the speed and battery life (less use if the emmc chip). :D

Ok for the addons :)

But i need ideas ! What other customizations do you want?
What hildon desktop ? Some good transition ? (how are mine? :))

For the UI .. Ehmm .... i have never programmed T_T
If someone wants to help me or do this by himself or together ok :( But i just don't know how to create a GUI in gtk or QT .. T_T

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

2) sounds

mmm.. good ideas.. but there is a big problem ... everyone of us is different... with different preferences .. :/
So what font, sounds and splashscreens should i use ?

I would prefer to not customize too much the script... The mods are "universal" .... customizations like those aren't :/

By the way ..for the cellular modem button .. there should be a program in the repo .

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Just do a concept draft and folks can exchange their own mods in the folders...

I have installed the celluar app but it gives a 3rd file to overwright the original.

when you create fonts and sounds folders, we can drop our files in those and the script will transfer them.
I have a huge Matrix mod collection and have to do those manually..

you could also add smsconv as script.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

How do I revert back to default Power Buttons?

edit: Answer: remove powerbutton package from application manager.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

I do everything right from the part 1 - 3 but after i type:

Quote:

sudo gainroot
sh /home/user/Mydocs/custom_en/custom

i got this error messenger :
"sh: can't open /home/user/MyDocs/custom_en/custom"

anyone know why? plz help!! :( Thanks!

I'm a noob so here are my two mistakes I made:
1. not having a space after the sh
2. having the proper path to the custom_en folder. Mine turned out to be under "/home/user/MyDocs/custom_en/custom_en/" once I did that it worked.

Most of my errors have been typing errors so hope this helps.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

thax for the help...but mine is still didn't work :(

Mmmm ... i think it is just a wrong patch to the script.

Have you used the file manager to see where is the script?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

yes, it's in Documents folder (Nokia N900/Documents/custom_en/)
but i just want to change the swappiness so could i use the OpenSHH and go straight to /proc/sys/vm/swappiness and change 100 to 30? is it fine?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Download the attached file ... delete the .txt extension... and put it in /etc/init.d ... :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

since your combining all the mods into 1 script is there a way u can use the script to export the settings that are already there 2 back them up and restore them

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

good job, i love your script. also, on your next release, do you think you can add a disable the auto update from the app manager?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

This sounds great. Along with swappolube this is one of the first things I will try once I get my n900 fixed. Presumably this does not conflict with it in anyway so you can run both rather than one or the other right?

Another question with the custom icons when you unzip the packet contents you get all the icon files in a folder. So rather than enter the letter in the script for custom icons you can just copy the ones you like and put them in the relevant hildon folder right?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

this was very useful for a N9OOB like me.... thanks friend :)

By the way .. for the icons ..yes you can put all the icons that you want in the script directory :)

It will copy the whole content of the folder :) Look at the code of the script to understand more ;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Fast Maemo Modding Script

Hi,

Thank you for this script.
It works really well.

I only doubt the camera mod, I would like to restore it to the original settings. Could you please tell me how to do this?

Cheers
