Build.prop missing - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

So I tried to change the lcd density by editing the build.prop, but by accident i deleted it. Now my phone wont work. It only shows the galaxy s 4g screen then stays on a black screen. What do I do? Can i edit the files on the phone some other way?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19601787

this will reset everything to normal and fix it?

Yes. Apps and all.

But i have no idea what i'm doing. When i run the java code, how do i do that?

I can't put it into download mode since it doesn't do anything but show a black screen

You can still get into download mode even if your phone does not show it. You may just need to do some more reading.
Battery pull, insert USB (should be connected to computer as well), Hold volume up+volume down, then reinsert battery while still holding volume buttons.
You should be able to get Odin or Heimdall to recognize the device.

ok i was able to get it into recovery. Now instead of doing the heimdall, can i restore a nandroid backup? Would that fix it?

Yes also u can push the build.prop u want from cwm by doing
adb push build.prop /system/
If thats all u changed then it should work
-sent from an UNBRICKABLE force

What I recommend is :
1. Copy your desired build.prop to your SDCARD. Take it from your ROM zip.
2. Copy CWM file manager to your SDCARD. see this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649373
3. Get into recovery by pressing the volume down + plug the power cable in + insert the battery in.
4. Choose 'install from zip' and select the CWM file manager zip.
5. Push build.prop to /system.
Good luck!

[Q] How do I keep ClockworkMod?

OK, so after fighting with my Nexus S 4G for three hours trying to get it rooted (it took 15 - 30 minutes for my Hero and Evo Shift) I finally established root and wanted to install ClockworkMod. Of course I've come to learn that it's just not that simple, and I have to rename the default recovery, which require r/w permissions, and just more hoops to jump through.
Long story short, I rooted, set r/w access and renamed install-recovery.sh and used ROM Manager to install ClockworkMod. Reboot to recovery, and all seems well. Except that the next time I reboot, I'm back to the default recovery, my renamed install-recovery.sh.old is no where to be found and low and behold, install-recovery.sh is back.
Considering how easy this was with HTC devices... I'm starting to get a little pissed off.
Anyone have any idea why I can't maintain ClockworkMod?
Why don't you just use fastboot and flash the recovery image? It will be permanent if you do that... It takes about ten seconds.
Download the clockwork mod recovery and rename it to recovery.img then reboot your phone into the bootloader (hold volume up while you power on your phone). With the Android sdk installed and in your path, type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and enjoy. If you want more specific help, you can pm me. I'll need to know what type of computer you have, Windows, Mac, or Linux in that case.

If you're sure you did the renaming properly and after that the file got restored back, I'd suggest you trying to trick the system by making a backup of the original install-recovery.sh and then instead of renaming it, just delete everything in that file so you still have the file named install-recovery.sh which will do noting to the recovery partition

OK... tried this. No go.
Reboot still shows the default and not clockwork.
The file I renamed on my i9020a to prevent stock recovery from being reinstalled was in the folder \etc and was called install-recovery.bak
Cheers
So you're saying that your NS is rooted but when you boot into recovery, default recovery replaces CWM right?
1) Download 'Root Explorer' and 'ROM Manager' from the Market (Skip this step if you already have done so)
2) Reboot
3) Open 'Root Explorer' and open 'etc' directory
4) On the top right hand corner, click the 'Mount R/W' button
5) On the same directory, find 'install-recovery.sh' and rename this file to a different name (e.g. install-recovery.sh.old)
6) Open 'ROM Manager' and click 'Flash ClockworkMod Recovery.'
7) Reboot

Yep. Still unlocked. Super-user and root programs appear to work fine. Can pull apks and push them back. I really don't know why this isn't working for me. Just thought maybe I wasn't alone.

Have you tried to lock it back up and return to stock? I suspect you are using the latest clockwork mod too right? I feel your pain. My Hero was a PITA to root and it had all kinds of wanky problems one day and the next.. Blue skys.

See, the Hero was easy for me. The Nexus seems 10 times harder to do things to.
I have noticed this, I have an:
etc\install-recovery.sh
and
system\etc\install-recovery.sh
Do I need to rename both?

I can only tell you what I would do. I would try to get it back to stock and lock it up to start over.

This is what I did and worked perfectly. But I allready had KD1 which I recomend you get. Download the recovery and update.zip and put both of them on the root of your sd card. Then get root explorer from the market. Open root explorer and go down to sdcard. In the sd card you are gonna find the recovery file you placed in there. Your long press it and its gomma say copy. Copy that and press back button and then your at the main page of root explorer again. Its gonna say paste and cancle at.the bottom but dont press anything yet. You go all the way down to system and go into it and then into /bin. In /bin your gonna press the mount r~w button at the top right which allows you to paste the file. You press paste at bottom left and its gonna ask if you want to overwrite say yes.(if it didnt ask you overwrite that either means the file you downloaded was renamed.or there was a (2) or (3) on it if you downloaded various times. Just take the ending out so its.just.recovery)
Now back out to homescreen of your phone.and if you have kd1 you can get into recovery from quickboot if not then turn off your phone and hold powerbutton and both volume keys while the phones turning on normally it will go to a bluish screen with an android.(recovery) here you click reinstall packages and your done

I mean put the update.zip in the root of the sdcard->go to recovery->reinstall apps?

Sounds like you didn't replace the recovery binary correctly if it's giving a "verification failed" error.
I did though, I rooted my phone using super one click, robooted it, replaced recovery in system/bin with krios' and left the update.zip on the root and it still didnt. I dont think it really rooted though..

It sounds like you may be in stock recovery. We have to use a bootstrapped recovery called openrecovery. After you have installed openrecovery you get to it by holding the volume up key during a normal boot.

Reading your post, I think there is a step that was missed. Did you extract the openrecovery.zip? The extracted contents are what is in this folder sdcard/openrecovery.
Do you have this set up on your SD card?
Sdcard/openrecovery.zip
sdcard/openrecovery
sdcard/nandroid/openrecovery/<your ROM you want to restore>
**No spaces between**
Go to this thread and download and unzip this recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1242259) This is what we are all using now b/c of the customization that MZ put into it. Follow the directions.

[E] Changed FPS

Hi!
I changed boot animation logo with this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.boot.animations
and I try to run it more smoothly with changing FPS. Before I confirmed change from 20 to 60 fps I get a warning says that in some cases boot animation won't work beceuse of that, but now my whole screen doesn't work. It's all black. App changed some .txt file but I can't remember what it was. Can someone help me to revert FPS to previus state pls.
I tried to sent email to developer but they didn't answered.
Which ROM are you using? Which firmware version?
You need to flash the ROM again (in case of a custom ROM), or flash an FTF file (in case of a stock ROM). Wiping data isn't needed for custom ROMs as long as you're using the same one; flashing an FTF will automatically wipe data.
The file you're looking for is desc.text.
Open up the bootanimaton.zip in /system/media (do it on a PC, not your phone)
In the zip, look for desc.txt , open it, and change he third number in the first line of the file to whatever FPS you want.
Save it, and close it. (It should get automatically updated in the zip if you didn't close the archive)
That's it!

I managed to open phone storage on PC but in system I only have PIM folder with contacts in it.
Okay... do you have CWM? It might negate the need to flash an FTF.

Errrrr....let me rephrase.
The /system folder cannot be accessed by connecting your phone to your PC.

Wait, what??
You changed something in the boot animation, and now the entire display doesn't light up? Even though the boot is successful?
That's strange. In that case, if what I mentioned is the cause, you have a way to procure the zip through adb.
Connect the phone to your PC, open up a terminal window/cmd and type
Code:
adb pull /system/media/bootanimation.zip
The zip should end up on your hard drive in the folder where you started the terminal.
NB:This requires you to have adb drivers installed(or use tools like Minimal ADB and Fastboot), and have USB Debugging ticked in Settings>Developer Options

That's strange. In that case, if what I mentioned is the cause, you have a way to procure the zip through adb.
Connect the phone to your PC, open up a terminal window/cmd and type
Code:
adb pull /system/media/bootanimation.zip
The zip should end up on your hard drive in the folder where you started the terminal.
NB:This requires you to have adb drivers installed(or use tools like Minimal ADB and Fastboot), and have USB Debugging ticked in Settings>Developer Options

I did this using Minimal ADB tool, changed value to default, save it, close it and update zip. Now, my phone won't even start, red light is blinking.
EDIT: I repeat process again and when I open desc.text value is still on 60, is there something I didn't do first time? I opened that file with winrar, changed value and save. This second time I didn't change value, and red light isn't blinking any more. Is 30 FPS default for my phone?
Can I somehow delete bootanimation app so it wont read setting from it?

Does flashmode work??? Otherwise you managed to hard brick your device...
Flashmode can be accessed by putting a micro-USB in the computer, hold the volume down button on the phone, and insert the other part of the micro-USB cable in the phone.
If a green LED appears(the notification LED), nothing to worry. If not, well, things get more serious.
Try this!

It works.
I just need a way to fix a display, that's all.
Is flashing FTF file going to help?

Yep. Just untick ''wipe data'' and ''wipe cache''.
That should fix everything!

I have one more problem. I downloaded that FTF file but I can't find it listed in Flashtool, even when I copied it in default locaition into Flashtool folder.
Why did you edit the bootanimation,
Other users never experienced those problems
What version are u on
