Sourcery 2.2 - Full Version

The music player was running when I ran the script. It was still running when I got that error (I was listening to "Who Are You" by the Who at the time).

Oh I forgot...
It only works with songs by Led Zeppelin




Bazinga!


Ok seriously that's odd to get that error...
Ran as root?

Yep. I tried it with "Stairway to Heaven" but it returned a message about that song being overplayed. So I tried it with "Emigrant Song" but got the same result as "Who Are You."
 
Overplayed?
I've never gotten that error either :p

It could be busybox

What version do you have?
1.18.3 or higher give me problems.

I just tried with 1.18.2 and 1.16.2 and I get no errors at all.

Not even overplayed errors ;)

This the script I made.

#!/system/bin/sh
PPID=$(pidof com.android.music)
echo "-17" > /proc/$PPID/oom_adj
PPID=$(pidof android.process.media)
echo "-17" > /proc/$PPID/oom_adj

Wow... I don't know how to install BusyBox... as far as I know, that was done when I originally rooted the phone with SuperOneClick many many moons ago. I don't even know how to check what I've got.

I know at one time Titanium Backup would install BusyBox for you, but now it seems to come with its own version so there's no need to install it again... I'm lost...

(Edited: According to TiBu, I have BB 1.18.4 installed)

Okay, this seems to be a bit more promising... it didn't even throw an error against Neil Diamond! I'll know for sure when I put it to the acid test later this afternoon when I drive home with the Droid in the car dock running the navigator in the foreground and the music playing in the background. I'll report when I get home. Thanks.
 
SUCCESS! The music player stuttered a couple of times (which is typical) but it always came back after the Navigator spoke... even when going through that little "back way shortcut" on roads NO mapping program on the planet seems to know exists (always causes GPS units to have fits; my Garmin just gives up and shuts down, so the Droid has one over on that). Made it all the way home with the music playing (even non-Led Zeppelin). Thanks!!
 
That's pretty freaking awesome!

But will it work if you Take The Long Way Home? (nyuk, nyuk)


btw, I've updated my OP - I now say to stay away from BB 1.18.3 or newer (and cleaned up a bit)

Although I don't shy away from calling somebody out for being purposely ignorant, I'm usually helpful.

So you can top being a trampy troll lol

Next, we can do sticks and stones :p

Hey don't be offending tramps :p

So based on one post, can I say the same thing about you?

The other day when I was snarky towards somebody, sure I was grumpy and tired but the guy was purposely ignorant and I called him out on it.

Big woop

btw, I'm usually helpful so don't be a lying tramp

Man i was referring to the long way home by supertramp :)
