Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Do any of you guys know how to add a root button and a end current task button to the power button menu?

I had the info before but now cannot find it in the threads:(

Thanks in advance

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

Edit as root.
File
/etc/systemui/systemui.xml
in a program like
vi
or
leafpad

You should move/remove comments around needed buttons (thus you will get "End Current Task" and "Reboot" buttons surely).
<!--
-->

I hope you can read xml well enough not to mess it up.

Sorry, I don't know a root button.

@wikiwide
Thanks for that, i added the reboot button before and will now search the xml file for references to "end current task' and try to add.
I did have a root button before pr1.3 also the end task button but i forgot how i did it, it may have been in the wiki.
I will keep searching

Re: N900 MODs - share your MODs!!
 

You can try this command in vi:
Esc
/endcurrent

It will put cursor to the place where "endcurrent" is found.

Or in Leafpad, Menu->Search->endcurrent.

It will be
<menuitem ... name="powerup_memain_endcurrenttask">
...
</menuitem>

you should have the end current task option without any modding in your power menu

Hi Guys, etuoyo asked me about this on the screenshot thread
Didn't want to hijack it so here are the mods i made.

Icons, QB widgets & instructions are included in the zip file. Icons were created by D4Klar, Biggzy, qosmio and myself so enjoy!

What error message did you get? None of them work? Do you get the widgets to appear but w/out the icons? Give me some info so I can try and help.

I find it hard too read... So i was pussing the wrong button in QB eg. the one that says 'import buffer in command' :( now got the right one and they'r blinking on my desktop now! They'r beautifull and i would thank you!

Haha ok. I'm glad it worked. Enjoy! :D

My small mod...
I wanted to get a reminder each time I turn on cellular connection (say, go away from home, where I didn't need cellular, to outdoors, where cellular is the only reliable way to send/receive information).
I didn't want to install special programs for such a small task.
Therefore, I added one file, cellmosimreadytest, to /etc/event.d/.
It works when event "cellmo sim ready" is emitted.
It prints text to screen (in large green letters) with text2screen and pronounces it with espeak (do you have it installed?).
The text is taken from a file in MyDocs, so it's easy to edit the reminder.

Here is the file cellmosimreadytest.
