Model Lenovo a2107a-f version 4.0.3 I'm having major issues with renicing processes. i can renice a process in the user space. such as renice -20 <pid>, but i cannot renice into realtime(roundrobin), FIFO, or OTHER. i.e. renice -r 99 <pid> if i issue renice -r 99 <pid> i get the error: Operation Not Permitted. WTF?? yes i'm in root.
what's funnier is i can sometimes get it to work if i changed toolbox ownership/group to root/shell, and renice ownership/group to root/root. but it's random hit or miss. and for more WTF, if i change renice to root.root it sometimes changes toolbox to root.root. and vice versa if i change toolbox to root.shell it changes renice to root.shell. any clues as to what the !@#$ is going on with this android?? i never have this problem on my zte n9510, but android 4.0.3 on this lenovo is retarded something aweful. looks like google stuck in an extra chromosome in the permissions, and i can't fix it. root should be able to renice any process at anytime and change the io priorities at will, but the permissions are seriously screwed and go back and forth, even if i disable write on the 2 files, sometimes keeps changing the damm ownership.group, and something keeps preventing me from using "renice -r". help before i burn every android in the house with gasoline and matches. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
