Everything works as expected. Thanks Paul. Anyone using any mods on this yet?

I've changed kernels in order to enable sweep2wake and logo2menu but I seem to have broken wifi also.

[Guest Thumper Net]

Gone back to stock until i can get s-off to work as it takes too long to boot between sence and google rom ( always first going to recovery between boots ) its a great way to have both roms on your phone , well done paul

Thanks for testing. it's still early days, custom kernels may not be supported yet.

[Guest Tarek Elsakka]

that's basically it. you need to install it to a different location than the normal zip do.

you can manually do it but if the kernel has many aroma options, it can be confusing to know which files to copy to. so i just adjusted the updater-script to install to the correct location. i only wanted l2m so i didn't really test other options but they should work too with the same modified installer.

Thanks for your reply. I am going to try the method I posted because I do not know how to edit the updater-script. I extracted it from the Kernel ZIP and opened it with Notepad ++ and I found these lines:

"ui_print("Installing system files");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0644, 0644, "/system/lib/modules");

set_perm_recursive(0, 2000, 0777, 0777, "/system/bin/mpdecision");"

I am assuming I am supposed to modify these? I am guessing the third line's directory is correct, whereas the others need modifying? Would you be able to provide me with just those lines? I am using Bulletproof 3.4 kernel and I don't mind installing every option because it's a very light kernel that only has a couple of features whereas the same developer has one called ElementalX that is LOADED. Thanks a lot man.

I've looked into this and you would have to make two zips with modded updater script. One for renaming system dir. to gpe and one to sense. I installed manually to both and have lost WiFi. The kernel I looked at had aroma so I was scared to change the update script.

[Guest Tarek Elsakka]

Thanks for your reply.

I made two different updater-scripts and added them to each kernel respectively.

"ui_print("Installing system files");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system/SWITCH/Sense");

set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0644, 0644, "/system/lib/modules");

set_perm_recursive(0, 2000, 0777, 0777, "/system/bin/mpdecision");"

"ui_print("Installing system files");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system/SWITCH/GPE");

set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0644, 0644, "/system/lib/modules");

set_perm_recursive(0, 2000, 0777, 0777, "/system/bin/mpdecision");"

That is correct right?

No you only change the ui print line.

That will just tell you it's working while what it's really doing goes unchanged.

It will look like this

system/SWITCH/gpe

Or

system/SWITCH/sense

On every line with the call for /system then the system folder in the zip would have to be renamed to gpe or sense

No upon second look you did change the package extract dir line so it would go to the SWITCH folder but not the gpe or sense that it needs to.

Oh heck link me to the kernel I'll go first then send it to you.

That's still an AROMA installer.

We should make a new thread for this. I'm not going to clutter this one anymore mods delete as neccessary. PLEASE USE THIS THREAD FOR THIS DISCUSSION http://www.modaco.com/topic/363906-modifying-a-kernel-installer-for-switch/

I installed Beat 8 today and the phone wouldnt boot into the GE mode. I did a little searching on the forum and found the "solution" but when i tried to enter the command into the command line it would come up with this error "/system/bin/sh: /data/SWITCH/sense/firstrun.sense: not found". I checked in the directoies and the firstrun.sense file is not there though in /data/SWITCH/gpe there is a firstrun.gpe file but that would not execute while in the sense rom, no suprise there though. I wiped my phone and reinstalled the rom a few time but always came up with the same problem. Any ides? Anything would be a great help!

Thanks,

Caelar

[Guest tomf00lery]

My bugs are not able to access settings through notification bar in ge. Not sure if I'm getting notifications in ge actually. Home button does nothing more than vibrate except double tap works. Swipepad app doesn't work

[Guest Iambic]

Playing around some more today and discovered that while Pandora account login survived switching Spotify did not. When SuperSu is updated it asks to have binary updated twice; once each for Sense and GPE. My perception, thus far, is that Sense is smoother and faster; GPE feels laggy.

i think the file will disappear after running once like the name implies.

maybe your not switching is due to another issue. did you follow every instructions?

Did you wipe before flashing? Did you turn off fast boot?

Check the md5 of your beta 1 file.

Are you S-ON? Did you flash S-On.zip

What recovery are you using?

Thanks so much I had forgot to flash the S-On.zip and thats what was causing all my problems!

Thanks you again for the help,

Are you talking about on the mobile version? At the bottom of the page there is a full view button. Then you can choose pages or to go to the latest page.

Working for me. What is going on with yours?

[Guest tomf00lery]

Home button only works on doubletap. No notifications or quick settings. Also my swipepad app doesn't work all in GPE. Sense all is fine

[Guest ApexPredation]

Just sharing an odd app quirk when used on GPE. With instagram when you post there is a sun shaped icon that intensifies the image. It works fine in sense mode but on GPE mode it turns all the blue to yellow.
