Setting up the device

Setting up the most important applications

apt-get update 
apt-get install  kernel-power-flasher backupmenu busybox-power powertop shortcutd tracker-cfg wpakey-editor powertop sudser phone-control nano-opt gconf-editor procps bash3 swappolube less

improve performance

• Tracker-cfg tick lowmemorymode and set throttle to 10
• Use proposed swappolube settings, except swappiness should be 50
• Turn off swap on eMMC, enable on uSD (use ereswap)

Boot script placed in /etc/event.d/iosettings

These settings are mixed swapolube and freemangordons settings.

start on started hildon-desktop
stop on starting shutdown
console none
service

• Installing handy tools

apt-get install conkylayoutswitcher flashlight-applet alarmed ssh-status clipman led-pattern-editor cl-launcher hostmode-gui extkbd extmou  extended-contacts-search gconf-editor less simple-brightness-applet

• Installing some garbage I like to use

apt-get install aircrack-ng stkeys brainparty cutetube-qml dosbox supertux-stable frogatto colorflood pierogi telepathy-msn-pecan leafpad opera filebox irggu macchanger easy-deb-chroot

• Install widgets and themes

 apt-get install awoken-icon-theme black-plastic-theme plastic-addon-pack-1 cal-home-widget connectnow-home-widget queen-beecon quick-launch

Tweaks

• Use sudo while already root. Sometimes when I am root I still type sudo in-front of a command and it spits out the help of sudo. This will add root to sudoers and solve that. Not very useful but it's a small and convenient tweak

sudo gainroot
echo "user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" >> everybody.sudoers
echo "root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" >> everybody.sudoers
mv everybody.sudoers /etc/sudoers.d
update-sudoers

Fix Wifite.py

 sudo sed -i "s/(prefix='wifite')/(prefix='wifite',dir='\/opt\/tmp')/g" /home/user/MyDocs/MyScripts/wifite.py; sudo if [ ! -d "/opt/tmp" ]; then mkdir /opt/tmp; fi 

• Make the FMTX applet always visible

gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/maemo-statusmenu-fmtx/always_visible -t bool true

Record video with Gstreamers

 Enable SDK and tools repo
apt-get install gst-tools gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-extra
