Infinite loops are bad for your health.

what? im the only one who has int2ext+ working from the start?

[C3C0]

Might be - if you flashed different kernel as you mentioned you did... btw why did you?

[wizard.no.84]

s5.. and to be honest, dont know thought it mite seed up a bit the phone
only thing that kernel did was lover 3D rate at antutu.. my sore i barely 2200 WITH sd score included..

[C3C0]

Huh.. s4 and s5 is intended for SFR devices only. It's basically the same version as comes with ROMs by default but with support for different touchscreen. You got lucky it worked on yours

C3C0, thanks for the init.d fix but I'm staying on PA Jelly 4.2.2, I consider the PA 4.2.2 ROM the most functional with the best options (I was blown away when I saw the tablet UI). I hope you didn't stop the development of PA 4.2.2 ROM as it has been quiet since a few days on that forum.

[ChowChilla]

thanks for the fix, C3C0. I must say, this is perhaps the fastest rom ive used. Ive been using your PA 2.80/CM10 rom for the past month and this feels like an improvement.

While im here, what would be the best way migrating from Links2SD to INT2EXT? Remove/unlink apps, Wipe dalvik and flash the script?

@thomcd
I will continue maintaining aospa. I'm waiting for some major features to appear that are worth it. Like network mode switch.
You know it's always quite large amount of work to merge all new changes from official repos into my local repo and inspect and solve potential conflicts.

[wizard.no.84]

i dont even know what SFR stand for.. all i saw was jb kernel.. thought  it mite boost something..
using those s4 and s5 (not always) from ISC..
but i dont think that kernel is the thing that make i2e work..
two flashes back, i2e worked without kernel.. just rom-gapps-i2e
maybe because i formated it to ext2 ??

The SFR Staraddict is an entirely different device, based on the Skate's hardware. Sold in France, I think.

It has a different touchscreen, so it requires a different kernel to work properly.

@wizard
sysinit handling is in the init script inside kernel ramdisk. It was completely missing so there's no way how this could work for you since scripts in init.d haven't been executing at all. So the one and only explanation is that you must had used s5 when it worked for you. No other option.

You can't upgrade from 2.3 to 4.2 without issues. Best you can do is back up your stuff with Titanium Backup and restore it once you've installed SlimBean.

Without "issues" upon installation of the ROM . Like abnormal lagginess or other issues with partitions that may affect reliability or broken stuff.

You won't have 'issues' because the ROM either won't boot after upgrading or it'll be extremely unstable.

Seriously, just use Titanium Backup and you'll be fine.

Omega are you still running roorbox or you have moved ro slim bean

Still running RootBox. I'll switch to SlimBean once I'm tired of this.

Not entirely, just in different case and with "swapped" Home&Menu buttons.

IMHO, it's depends from manufacturing date: AFAIK, latest Skates also came with different touchscreens. Moreover, my Staraddict's touchscreen works OK with both Ceco's kernels - normal and SFR.

well, my stupidity is my bless
and something is wrong with my phone that for sure..
-before you added multy dpi gapps, i was able to clean flash new rom (with 200 dpi)
-after installing i2e+ (on RB) after clean instal, apps stayed (could not format ext partition)
-and now, i2e+ working on SB

i think that my phone is not erasing everithig when i do a clean install.
maybe i dont even have a Skate phone..
or maybe the pimp init is the a cause.

[wizard.no.84]

system
system was the thing.
this time i did clean install WITH manual format>system, and no kernel, and i2e+ is not working.
so im guessing that something stayed written on system partition from previous rom. because i noticed that i have old wallpaper (before cleaning) now i have SB wallpaper, and only that ~200Mb free..

as i sad, my stupidity is my bless

Ah, that makes sense. Can't remember the last time I flashed a ROM without formatting /system first.
