Hi guys
Maybe this is something stupid or useless to most of geeks here...
But, after a nervous breakdown due to the continuous reflash my N900, i decided to create a script that will apply all my favourite customizations to the N900



This was born as a set of cp commands... but has become something more appetizing that allowed me to approach the world of scripting.

This script will apply the following mods :

- Swappiness set to 30

- Custom Icons made by ME :P

- Faenza icons :


- Custom transitions made from the black plastic ones, but with some changes

- Power button menu mod (reboot and icons)

- Customized modest (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=56634)

- Customized photo settings (etc/gdigicam)

- Customized hildon-desktop, Matan one (up to 9 desktop and a lot of keyboard shortcuts)

- Customized leds (Blue=calls White=SMS Yellow=IM GreenWater=eMails)

- MLV profile added to the default titan's ones ...this is half way between lv and ulv .. and is for the n900 that have problems with the too hight undervolt of the ULV profile.. :


- Wifi-Switcher popup mod: the popup of the program doesn't need the tap to disappear anymore.
After less seconds it disappears automatically.

- Wi-fi modules autoloading (called autostart in the script): this mod disables the autoloading of the wi-fi modules on maemo sturtup, just like Wi-fi switcher does.
WARNING: don't install this mod if you don't have Wifi-Switcher installed or you won't be able to connect to the network anymore.

- Update Notifications Off : this mod disables the update notifications... very useful if you use only FasterApplicationManager.

____________________________________________


HOW TO

1. Download the zip from HERE : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9985045/custom_en_v0.9.zip

2. Unzip it with an archive manager. Make sure you have a directory, called custom_en, containing 12 subdirectories and a file with no extension, the sh script.

3. Copy the main directory somewhere in your phone.
Better in MyDocs

4. Open X-terminal and type :

Code:
sudo gainroot
sh /patch/to/custom_en/custom
For esample : "sh /home/user/Mydocs/custom_en/custom"

5. As described in the screenshot, type the letters of the desired action: C to customize... R to restore:


6. Type the desired letters and then press ENTER:


That's all

NOTE: i've added the possibility to RESTORE EVERYTHING through the script itself.

He illuminated me about the case command (to create the menu) and the way to execute the script in every directory of the system

The swappiness set to the value "30" instead of the original 100 .
It make the n900 more speed and less battery-hungry

EDIT: Editing the indicated files you should have better photos and less pixelled effect

This script doesn't work with the d-bus input

So you can use this without problems of keyboard layout and using the same letters used in the script.

Do you refer to this problem, right?
