Yes, but cannot do it :))) Do you have any idea ?

[hmtheboy154]

on the last post I'm saying "What's wrong" but there's no answer
maybe because of "pending" status of the reply

anyway, what's wrong ?

[YT-Advanced]

anyway, what's wrong ?

We have problem with init.rc file. It didn't start the task :(

check the log yet ?

[hmtheboy154]

from what I see on you guys code, you put script to run just like what Android-x86 did, running it in logwrapper
so there should be a log of it running, so you can see what's going on. Otherwise try to put it somewhere else other than /bin like /etc

[YT-Advanced]

@hmtheboy154 Sorry about my late reply. I have tested with logwrapper before but it didn't show any log

KernelSU does not support installing the manager in /system/app or /system/priv-app, as this is easily detected; if you want to embed an app, it is recommended to install it through the pm command after boot.
