I will have a look into that!
Searching for config.disable_media into this group I have found another
thread which mentions some other interesting properties in
frameworks/base/services/java/
com/android/server/SystemServer.java, a quick grep yields:
String factoryTestStr = SystemProperties.get("ro.factorytest");
final boolean headless =
"1".equals(SystemProperties.get("ro.config.headless", "0"));
boolean disableStorage =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_storage", false);
boolean disableMedia =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_media", false);
boolean disableBluetooth =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_bluetooth", false);
boolean disableTelephony =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_telephony", false);
boolean disableLocation =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_location", false);
boolean disableSystemUI =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_systemui", false);
boolean disableNonCoreServices =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_noncore", false);
boolean disableNetwork =
SystemProperties.getBoolean("config.disable_network", false);
:
Having a look into SystemServer.java, I think disabling media, system UI,
NonCoreServices (will it disable ADB, as it would disable USB Manager?)
Also, I think I could remove media, surfaceflinger and bootanim services
from init.rc would do the trick.
What do you think?
Thank you for your interest and time in our problem!
