Wifi Scan Interval

I don't see the normal wifi scan interval setting in the build.prop file. Others have mentioned adding wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=90 to the file but no one has said it works. Anyone here found how to change the scan interval?

that is in gingerbread roms only....

Is this a samsung thing that they only put it in gingerbread roms. Because I have edited 2.1 and 2.2 android build.prop from other phone manufacturers for changing the interval

anyone know about my above question

It's not in the build.prop file on froyo. Use Blade Buddy (app) - in advanced settings; or to edit the text file directly in root explorer, navigate to data/local.prop (long press & edit text) - I set mine to 180.

Not sure, haven't used a GB rom for a samsung phone yet. But I think, according to an above post it might not... I came from a DX & moto had everything in the build.prop.

On my Charge, there is no data/local.prop
Inside the data folder, there is another folder named local, but nothing editable is inside.
I did a file search in Root Explorer for files named .prop
default.prop
/system/build.prop
/system/default.prop
were the only files that showed up.

Yeah, if you don't have it, it may have been created by blade buddy. Not sure if the file is functional or references another file... (I'm used to everything being in the build.prop file on moto) - guess I'll have to do some more searching.

I have installed the ep1h leak. The scan interval is listed in the build.prop one more reason to leave froyo

[Q] Default apps

im working on a custom rom from source and i cant seem to find where android stores its default applications for example i have two browsers the native one and skyfire now i wish to keep both of them BUT when i open a link i want skyfire to run automatic with out the user being asked which one they want to use i have looked threw the forums and googled it up and down with no luck so im hoping some one smart is around to point me in the right direction

my guess is to replace browser.apk and browser.odex with the necessary files for skyfire in /system/app

[Q] Build.Prop

I had My Wildfire rooted(CM7 Nightly Rom).
By default System folder doesnt have build.prop file. i extracted the build.prop from the rom and pasted with few changes.
for eg. default ringtone to Rigel.ogg(orginal config Playa.ogg)
But my phone isn't changing Playa.ogg(Default) to Rigel.ogg
What i concluded is andorid is not reading the build.prop file
any suggestion?
Thanx

Idk if I'm right , but since by default it has no build.prop that means it won't read that file .

So can u please tell me how to make my Phone read the configuration mentioned in build.prop??

Hmm, wich nightly do you have?

My only tip is make sure you are using a plain text exitor like notepad or notepad++ because otherwise the formatting can stop the roms from working.

Thanks for your reply..
actually i figured it out myself.
"Build.prop only works at the time of flashing"
I flashed my wildfire with updated build.prop and it reflected the changes that i made.
my real motive was to use timescape widget with Arc launcher.
can you guide me with this.

Settings Storage

Hi guys, sorry if I've broken any rules with this post as I normally on post in my own device threads...
I am working on a custom rom and I want some settings in the settings app to be preset such as I want install from unknown sources to be checked on the first boot... I also want a different wallpaper to be set... I have decompiled different apks and searched the system folders but I just cannot find where these settings are stored! Can anyone help please? When you change a setting where is it stored? Thanks

Settings use the preferencescreen. They are stored in the XML folder under the res folder. You can set a default value to each checkbox preference.
The default wallpaper is set in the framework res.

Need help with default keyboard.

I need to change the default keyboard that loads within the android system.
How would I go about that?
Just need the location.
I want my rom im building to load with it.

Edit /system/csc/others.xml with the package name of the keyboard app that you want to set as default
