Launch a script at boot VIM3L (Android)

VIM3
1

Which system do you use? Android, Ubuntu, OOWOW or others?

Android9 Pie 64

Which version of system do you use? Please provide the version of the system here:

vim3l-android-9-64bit-v241107.img

Please describe your issue below:

I need to run a script when the device starts. I found these instructions.

> $ adb root
> $ adb remount
> $ adb push userinit.sh /system/etc/init.d/userinit
> $ adb shell vi /system/bin/preinstall.sh
> $ adb sync 
> $ adb reboot

but my FS does not have an init.d folder

instructions with init.rc don’t work also…

(1)mount -o remount,rw /
(2)vi /init.rc
(3)add a service like this in the last line:
service myshell /data/my/myshell.sh
class main
user root
group root
oneshot
(4)save scucess

what are the correct instructions?

unfortunately, NO…
this thread did NOT help me at all.
there are many mentions of folders.
device/khadas
system/core/rootdir/init.rc
but I DON’T have them.
no core, no device.

all your previous discussions are no longer relevant, at least for VIM3L. can you tell me where to add my service? I read ALL your previous threads… they are either not relevant or do not work

4

These require downloading code, and the path of the code is not within the motherboard system

5

Sorry, but this doesn’t mean anything to me. Just a bunch of words. I’m an ordinary person who needs to run a small script. And I can’t do it… And there are no instructions on HOW to do it. I’ve hated charades and puzzles since I was a kid, and your answer is an offer to complete some kind of quest for a 54-year-old person. And you just can’t write HOW to run the script?

6

Sorry, this requires adding relevant services in the code. Incorrect SELinux will prevent these from running properly

7

great…
what services? what are they named? where can I get them?
