autoexec.ash not executing

[epandi]

I think i've tried almost anything, but my autoexec.ash files won't execute when booting up the camera (Z22L).

I've tried different autoexec.ash files:

To check if it'll start auto recording:

sleep 8
t app key record

To check if it'll start beeping:

t pwm 1 enable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 disable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 enable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 disable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 enable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 disable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 enable
usleep 250
t pwm 1 disable

On different firmwares:
- official 1.2.12
- official 1.2.13
- high bitrate custom firmware 1.2.13 (from this forum)

I even tried the autoexec.ash files with an empty line at the end of the file, and without an empty line at the end of the file.

I've tried using telnet to chmod the autoexec.ash file to 755.

I've tried renaming the autoexec.ash file to autoexec.sh.

Nothing seems to work.

I would really like to use the official firmware 1.2.12 with the autoexec.ash file to modify the bitrate and reduce the noise reduction, but without my device loadign up the autoexec.ash file I can't seem to get that to work.

Any help?

maybe you can attach the ash file for further checking.

Download and try putting this script into your sd root. Your camera should beep within 1s.
Dont edit the file, just extract and paste into sd root, we will see.

Thank you guys for replying.

I did an ELF recovery of the camera and upgraded to the 1.2.12 firmware and the autoexec.ash script seems to auto load on startup now.

@Pvls : after the 2 beeps of the startup, the camera gives a long beep from the scrip you sent. I even modified the scrip to beep 4 times (just copy pasted your script 4 times) and all seems to work now.

Thanks everyone for the help!
