HTC Incredible :: Place Shell Scripts Write By Own?
Sep 21, 2010
1)Where can you place shell scripts you write for yourself? I tried placing them on the sdcard but they won't run from there. I tried placing them in /mnt/emmc but same problem. I tried making a /bin folder in the root directory but it gets erased when I reboot the phone.
2)Is there a way to edit my PATH to include this location. Normally I would put it in .profile or .bashrc in my home directory but there doesn't seem to be a home for the phone that I can tell when I access terminal emulator. root doesn't seem to have a HOME variable set either. How can I modify my environment?
3)Can you create a new user with specific permissions? I would like to create a user and have a folder that is only readable by that user on the phone. Maybe, not sure if this will work with apps etc.
4)Can bash be installed?
5)Can perl be installed?

I am writing a content provider to access data in a zip file. The plan is to extract data as needed to temporary files since the API Requires a file descriptor (as opposed to an input stream). The question is where can an Android app write files - we can assume these are small and regularly purged. I do not believe the /sdcard is required.

I went here: Howto: Root the HTC Droid Incredible ? Technology ? Jonamerica.com. I followed the instructions and everything was working (for removing bloat) but the only thing that was not working is when i type: pm uninstall. for cityid
i get: pm sbin/sh: pm: not found. Whats the deal? I read that entering su would fix that, but su is not recognized either.

I picked up the Shell / Holster Combo case from my local VZW store today and absolutely love it. I feel like I'm always struggling to find the perfect phone case and rarely do. But this one is truly ideal to me. What I like:Securely clips on my belt. Easy to remove from holster, but virtually impossible to fall out accidentally. Always-on shell protects phone when not holstered When holstered, the screen faces inward - no risk of bumping into something and scratching it Allows access to all buttons and connections Extremely comfortable to hold Rubbery shell makes dropping the phone less likely If there is anything I don't like, it might be that the texture on the case doesn't look the most professional, and I work in a white-collar environment. But it certainly looks better than a texture-less design would.

I know there are apps like Autostarts that do this, but I'm looking for a way to do it via the shell. Is there a directory or file within Android that stores startup stuff? For example in Windows, I'd look in All Programs/Startup or something.

Just curious. If I am using a deodexed ROM and uninstall a "stock" app with Titanium, is the end result of less bloatware etc any different than using mv to apps.disabled via ADB?
I have started using Titanium for its simplicity and not needing to connect to my PC but I want to use whatever is best.

I was wondering how I can place a contact that was synced to my phone through facebook into a group.When I click these contacts the only options available are "All" "Link" and "Set Speed Dial".I have a large number of contacts from facebook (close to 500) and I want to separate those people into groups, for example: college, favorites, family, etc.I've searched the forum and can't seem to find the answer so if it has been asked before I apologize.

Just ditched my Eris and jumped to the incredible. I love it! Anyway, I'm trying to place a pic on my lockout screen. Not my wallpaper but my lockout screen. The Eris had an option within settings to do that but I cant find it on my Incredible. Any suggestions?

I'm going to be in Japan for 10 days. I read that they put in a 3G network so I called Verizon and our phone do work there! Here's the catch, it's 1.99 per min! They have a Global Data Package that 64.99 unlimited data, so I'm putting that on for the 10 days I'm there. I just got my Dinc last week and I'm a total noob when it comes to it. Is there an app or way to use wifi to place calls cheaper? I've tried searching these forums but I can't find anything.

I have CyanogenMod latest ROM. I am trying to write a new boot using the fastboot method. However, I get "writing 'boot'....... failed" (remote not allowed)
Any ideas why?
I'm not sure if SDK version matters. I am using one I downloaded weeks ago.

I am creating an application that checks the installation of a package and then launches the market-place with its id.
When I try to launch market place with id of an application say com.mybrowser.android by throwing an intent android.intent.action.VIEW with url: market://details?id=com.mybrowser.android, the market place application does launches but crashes after launch.
Note: the application com.mybrowser.android doesn't exists in the market-place.
MyApplication is my application.
CODE:..........
However, when I try to launch the market place for a package that exists in the market place say com.opera.mini.android, everything works. Log for this case:

I would like to be able to send an actual SMS message from a shell using just the command line and not relying on any apk to do so. I am interested in sending this message between phones, not from the emulator to the phone. For example, by running the command: service call phone 2 s16 "1234567890"
I can place a call from phone to phone using the command line. The 'service list' command shows an isms service, which I can't seem to provide the correct arguments for. I would assume that one of the args should be a PDU string but haven't had any luck so far.
