Guest lycrawearer Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Have installed the Reboot Widget from here and although it installs ok - I've got no icon and can't see how this is supposed to work ? Any idea's ? I also got the latest Amon RA Recovery which works no problem ... running MCR 3.2 beta 5 ... Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigDvr6 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 it says to reinstall if not working the first time on the comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lycrawearer Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Have just done that - still not working for me. Even after a forced reboot I get no icon :D Cheers anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest arunshen Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 at the risk of stating the obvious, you are adding the widget to a homescreen, right? as opposed to trying to find the icon in 'All Programs' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cowai Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 modaco doesn't support the reboot command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest volatile_ink Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Try 'Root Booter'. Gives you the option of booting Normal, Recovery and Bootloader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cowai Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Try 'Root Booter'. Gives you the option of booting Normal, Recovery and Bootloader. Does it work with default modaco? I think I have tried them all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest baldahin Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Does it work with default modaco? I think I have tried them all... yes, it does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest volatile_ink Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 yes, it does +1 Been using since I started with MoDaCo. Would be nice if it had an option to shutdown. I've emailed the dev about this, so fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lundefugl Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 modaco doesn't support the reboot command. Actually it does, it's just a little 'different'... Just 'reboot' with no arguments doesn't do anything on modaco, but if you type 'reboot now' it will reboot. I use GScript Lite and have a shortcut icon to the reboot script on my home screen, but the reboot script that ships with GScript must be modified on modaco with the 'now' argument after the reboot command to work properly. I don't know if the 'now' is the keyword or if the modaco reboot command simply respond to ANY argument... Of cource arguments like 'recovery' or 'bootloader' will do something different :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CitizenLee Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 (edited) I'm using a widget called Boot Control which works perfectly on MCR 3.1 Gives the option to Reboot, Reboot to Bootloader, Reboot to Recovery, Power Down... and scarily enough, Wipe! EDIT: Just noticed it seems to be the same as Reboot Widget posted above... just with a different name and a different coloured icon.

Ohh, sounds like a root/su/superuser permissions problem, I think I've seen that on one of the rom's I've tried. You could first try a terminal emulator on your phone (they're a bit hard to use without a physical keyboard, but it's possible), the run su, and then reboot (now) If it fails then it's a superuser permissions problem, maybe a reinstall would do the trick?

Any apps that need root work, tested. But reboot / reboot now does not work on Modaco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. $ su # reboot now The above gets me a "not permitted". Is this a job for chown or chmod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
