Ok... I'll bite. Ringdroid from the market. Any other answer will take some info.
As in, the ringroid will put the ringtones in the sd card memory not the phone memory, i tried copy paste over but fail.
To place them into the phone memory you will need to either copy them using the terminal or push them through adb.
using adb, place the file(s) in your tools folder
Code:
adb push filename.mp3 /system/media/audio/ringtones
In the terminal, if you place them in the root of your sdcard
Code:
cp /sdcard/filename.mp3 /system/media/audio/ringtones
I am not sure if you need to remount or not to push/copy into the folder or not.
It says read-only file system as the error.

Try:
Code:
adb remount
That should fix the "read only" problem.
i'm not using adb... I'm using the second method which is in the terminal.
Do yourself a favor and go get Root Explorer from the market. It lets you move any file to anywhere.
Move your files to /system/media/audio/ringtones and remember to check to see if the files that are there are .ogg or .mp3. If they are .ogg just rename your files after you move them.
What you mean I have to rename the files after i move them?
What's the exact application name? I tried searching on market but could not find any.

I like SUFBS but ES (or estrong) file explorer is good also. SUFBS cost a buck or 2 but I think it is worth it. Either way your phone needs to be rooted for this. You do have root right?
Yeah, phone is rooted. I tried ES Strong Explorer but cannot work, it says something about permission or something like that..

I'm not sure if it's a "hero thing" but sometimes the file extensions in the ringtones folder are not .mp3. They are .ogg. If you look into the folder and see .ogg files just change the extension and you'll be all good.
As for the apps. Look for "Root Explorer". I believe there are both free and paid options. The paid one isn't very much $$ so, considering how much easier it makes things, give up the loot and support a dev.
I tried searching under market, but cant find it..
id use terminal with cmds, would be a tad faster and a bit more reliable, in my opinion, but as of searching on your behalf i have found root explorer a paid version and estrongs free version by searching "root" while in the market. estrongs sounds unstable. If your going to pay for a good file explorer get SU file manager&terminal. (and...SAA?ror)
How do I use terminals? I tried but that say permission thingy..
Did you mount the system?
OK dude. If you're rooted I assume you have somebody's recovery. Boot to recovery and go into console (Alt+x). Now do this.
<enter>
mount /system <enter> (maybe mount /system/media if just /system doesn't work)
mount /sdcard <enter>
cp /sdcard/yourfolder/yourringtone.mp3 /system/media/audio/ringtones <enter>
reboot
You should be good to go.
Can I do that in terminal? As in one of the application in my HTC Dream?

Using the same method there
by editing /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb to 4096 I seem to have imrpoved my internal SD card's speed. Only until reboot as i cant find /system/etc/init.d using root explorer.
However, can kennethpenn, Ririal and any other devs bake it into the rom?
+1 (please)
Correct me if I am wrong, but you should be able to create an init.d file in wordpad and put the script in there to run on boot. I did that for a memory tweak on my former Galaxy S.

I know it can... But there isnt an init.d folder in /system/etc/
(Noob question?) What are you guys use to read/edit these files (on phone)? I don't mean the ".rc" ones, but those with a page-and-badge icon in Root Explorer (example: "/init", not "/init.rc"). I'm not even sure on the file type... Thanks.
We'll see about this. I'm doubtful. But I'm adding it to my list of prospects.

It does show improvement in SD Tool.
However, I use my external SD for camera so gallery reads from it... so not sure if it has real world improvement...
Create a init.d folder in /system/etc and push this script there
But it won't work until you install the script or another is already installed in init.d folder

Do you know for sure it will be executed just by creating the folder? is the init.d folder supported?
One of the earlier versions of aroot added init.d support, however i am not sure if the later versions (gladiatrix root) does this (see this thread)
I used the aroot method when I reflashed 1.26 to do some tweaking and the init.d folder is in /system/etc/

My question is, will this work for the external sd card as well? I transfer most but not all of my less priority apps to my external sd card. The SD Card app that test the speed is not accurate, fyi.
I also tried the link previously and changed it to max kb but occasionally it is a hit or miss on the speed.

Im pretty sure I flashed back to 4.1.26 to use the root method I mentioned before specifically so I could use 4.1.57 with init.d support. I did notice that the "prefered" root method doesnt make mention of init.d, but its fully working for me now

What Motorola did was bake in the native linux install from the android-backend with the webtop system. Thus, the directory you're looking for is /osh/etc/init.d/
Code:
echo "$YOURLINE" >> /osh/etc/init.d/rc
Also anyone know which one to edit for the external sd? So we can improve both sd?
Request.... please pretty please..
I brought this up in the gladiatrix thread 2 days ago and was also not able to get it to work after reboot or on the external SD.
Would someone please create a CWM zip for this when it is completed?
It could be added to the wiki or the sticky's thread

Pulling stuff from memory, so I might be a bit off here and there.
The original root methods (SuperOneClick and aRoot) put a script in /system/etc/install-recovery (or something like that) which had one line in it which told it to execute every script in /system/etc/init.d. They also created the /system/etc/init.d directory and put a single script in there which remounted /system as rw.
But, the 4.1.57 update deleted the script, so most of you probably don't have it any longer (unless the re-root process put that script back?). In any case, I suspect that's the information you're looking for.
So 4.1.57 isnt capable of running init.d?
both methods require a root explorer.
Method 1:
navigate to the system folder
find "App" folder
Change the name of "dtcp_apk.apk" to dtcp_apk.bat
Method 2:
Navigate to system folder
find "App" folder
change permissions of Dtcp_apk.apk to all blank
Hope this helped someone.

You go to the setting of ES,then at the bottom of setting menu, it has Root setting. Go there and checked all check boxes. If you can, that's mean your KF is rooted.

Thanks a lot for this :highfive:
Confirmed works on KF 8.9, thanks OP! I renamed to dtcp_apk.ads
finally, those horrific ad screens are gone! thank you sir!
if you have adb available, you should be able to do this without a root explorer.
use one of the following codes:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/app/dtcp_apk.apk /system/app/dtcp_apk.apk.bak
exit
exit
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
chmod 000 /system/app/dtcp_apk.apk
exit
exit
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
rm /system/app/dtcp_apk.apk
exit
exit
The first one will rename it. The second one will clear its permissions. The third one will remove it completely.
It should go without saying, but its not my fault if you screw something up, or if it is necessary to have this apk in your system, and you use the third method. I haven't tried it, but it should work. I do know what the commands do.
Didn't also work for me with es file explorer the first time i've tried it, although i've enabled all root options.
Rebooting the device helped me, but it's also important to make sure that you give the explorer the permission to change system data

Thank you so much!!! Method 1 worked great. Also renamed the odex file to .odex.bat through root explorer. Note, in root explorer you will probably have to push the little 'Mount R/W" button once you get into system/app
Sweet. $15 saved.
Thanks for the quick 'how to'.
Hey guys! So I successfully managed to root my Galaxy S Advance running stock 4.1.2 Jellybean (Italian firmware I9070XXLQL) and installed SuperSU and TitaniumBackup. I was uninstalling unnecessary bloatware using a couple of lists made by other forum members. One of the apps I deleted was called MTP Application 1.0 (I think?) because it is only required for connecting to a computer via Kies and I don't use that anymore (Android File Transfer all the way!) But now my phone does not get recognised by AFT at all. Unfortunately I'm a klutz and forgot to make a backup of the application before deleting so now it cannot be recovered. Can someone possibly provide me with the APK? It is a system application and I have granted root access to ES File Explorer. Just need the application itself. Thanks!
Edit: I've already searched online and can't find the APK anywhere on the Internet.
Here you go. I attached the file. I use xxlql deodexed and pulled this from the preload partition. I think you must put this apk in the app folder on preload partition and give it permissions. Good Luck.

You must be rooted. Once you are done rooting your device you must install root explorer or es file explorer. Then grant root permissions to that app. Now move the apk file to preload/app folder in root of the device. Then choose properties of the apk file and set permissions. You can youtube the procedure. Good luck.
