My old standard Rom Toolbox that I use for changing DPI on my Galaxy SII doesn't seem to work on here.
Any ideas?
Sent from my awesome Note 10.1
no idea, but i wonder how it'll affect the pen.
if your rooted just download super manager and give it root access. the go to /system and edit the build.prop the line you will be looking for mentions lcd density. or if you have adb set up you can just use adb pull /system/build.prop to pull the build.prop to your pc then edit it and use adb push build.prop /system/build.prop to put the new build.prop in your tab and then reboot

Root is required. Make a Nandroid backup! (I accidentally deleted by build.prop file and bootlooped my phone)
1) Download ES File Explorer (Or any other root file editor)
2) In ES File Explorer, go into Setting > Root Settings and enable both check boxes
3) Navigate to /system/ and copy/paste build.prop to /sdcard/ (just in case)
4) Open & edit /system/build.prop
5) Change the following lines to make your phone think it is a HTC G2:
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
OR
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
6) Reboot the phone
7) Install the netflix apk (if you haven't already)
8) Enjoy
HELP!
I've run into a problem with this. My phone has gone into bootloop.
Is there a way to copy the build.prop I backed up on my sdcard to the /system/build.prop without booting the phone,... I.E. from the cyanogen recovery mode?

I have the same issue right now but I don't have Cyanogen Rec Mode. I just have the ENG Bootloader and that's it.
Same issue with Samsung Fascinate
Anyone have any ideas how to copy back a build.prop if the phone is stuck in a boot loop? Adb won't work as it doesn't get far enough in boot to connect and it won't connect in recovery mode. As I can get into recovery, I may be able to flash a rom but that would be a worse case scenario.

I haven't yet tried ADB but since you've already answered my question then I guess we're stuck and must upload a stock rom and run it. I will try it once I get home but for now any new info would help. Sucks not having a phone at all
Can you not boot into recovery, mount system and use adb shell to copy the file from the SDCard?

No sir. I cannot do such procedure. I'm trying to load the update.zip without wiping all my info out. I can go into recovery but cannot mount. I cannot use ADB it says error device offline.
Bootloop Fixed

Thanks. I forgot to mount system. I'm back up and running now. Using clockwork recovery, I mounted system and then adb was able to connect. I then used "adb push build.prop /system/" to move a corrected copy from my pc to the phone (I had originally used an on-phone editer that reformated the file and caused the issue). Rebooted phone and it booted. Netflix still doesn't work, (I changed the ro.product.model=Nexus S & ro.product.manufacturer=Samsung) but at least my phone is back.
FYI Update: I changed my build.prop to ro.product.model=HTC Vision & ro.product.manufacturer=HTC and now no longer get the unsuported message but Netflix now closes after log-in. I guess this was all for nothing for me.
Having problems with captivate
ES explorer wont work, so I had to buy different one. Changed it to Nexus S, rebooted, opened netflix, get an error message saying my device is not supported. Please help.
I'm rooted and unknown sources is on and I dl'd es file explorer and went into settings and root options and click on root explorer it asks cyanogen or HiAPK rom. Is there a specific rom I should be running? When i click root explorer then i get "test failed. This feature cannot run on your phone, and then pops up to grant superuser permissions. Any suggestions? Thanks
And now I'm running cyanogen 7.0.3 and select cyanogen from the pop up but still get same error please help I have the apk for Netflix but says needs update and won't find update and just closes so i believe editing build.prop will get it running but cnnt get in to do the edits thanks in advance
nvm. i got it !!!!

add this to the end of your build.prop
Code:
#ISE:
net.tcp.buffersize.default=4096,87380,256960,4096,16384,256960
net.tcp.buffersize.wifi=4096,87380,256960,4096,16384,256960

Hello together
I tried something and it seems to work, so I share it:
I managed to manually install XLoud Engine to my rooted Galaxy S Advance (took the files for the Galaxy Y).
For me it is not possible to push files with adb, so I had to do it with root explorer.
1. Download http://www.mediafire.com/?0pn39apg27pqw2a
2. Extract the files to your sdcard
3. Backup your libaudioeffect_jni.so: (with adb or whatever)
Code:
mv /system/lib/libaudioeffect_jni.so /system/lib/libaudioeffect_jni.so.bak
4. Copy the files to the folders they belong to (with Root Explorer)
AudioEffectService.apk to /system/app
libxloudwrapper.so to /system/lib/soundfx
semc_audioeffectif.jar to to /system/framework
com.sonyericsson.audioeffectif.xml to /system/etc/permissions
libaudioeffect_jni.so to /system/lib
5. Change the owner of all these files to root.root (with adb: chown root.root filename)
6. Change the permissions of all files to rw-r--r-- (with adb: chmod 644 filename)
7. Edit your build.prop (with root explorer text editor and wifi keyboard to type the text)
Code:
# XLoud Engine
ro.semc.sound_effects_enabled=true
ro.semc.xloud.supported=true
persist.service.xloud.enable=1
8. Reboot and try it
My phone still plays music and its loud (I don't have another phone to compare but I'm pretty sure it is much louder than before)
--! I'm not responsible if you brick your phone! You are doing this at your own risk!
Will try it later, but its good to see some development for this device, really thanks!

hallo
you could it even more detailed and step for step explain so that I know what I must do and währe with images not bad.
if you don't know how to do it with this guide you probably schouldn't do it at all. i even wrote the commands you need with adb.
I think its better for you to wait for a cwm for our phone and then for the cwm pakage for xloud.
I don't want you to brick your phone...
works great,, thank you.. phone is loud as hell..
should be some application icon in drawer?
Can one achieve the same thing by just simply installing Volume+ app?
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda premium
@Bonez: there is no app in drawer, the app runs as service.
@titus: did not try that...
works perfectly thanks
This method also works for all phones - we use it on the HTC Sensation for ROMs that dont have it baked in but we also edit audio-effect.config in system/etc/ for libxloudwrapper
will try it..
I tried to use root explorer to edit the build.prop, but I found that I can't add a new line to add something at the bottom of it. The bottom of it just has the words "dalv", and I can't add new line. Anyone can help me?

The only way to edit the build.prop on the newer LG phones is to copy and edit it on your PC with Notepad++ or some other editor. Than copy it back to your phone and copy it to system folder with root explorer. Don't forget to change permissions to rw -r -r.

Download android sdk, install it as google tells you. Go to the folder your build prop is at, hold shift, press the right mouse button, press on open command prompt. Type this in it:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw, remount /system
push build.prop /system/build.prop
mount -o ro, remount /system
reboot
If you cant do that, you can always reflash the firmware
push not found

I wrote a script, it should be easier now.
Put build.prop into the Puuuuush folder and run PUSH_BUILD.PROP
EDIT: Sorry, I told you the wrong commands. it should be fixed now with this tool.

my bad, I thought you were just looking to transfer the file
unless I've missed something you can't do ADB in recovery or download mode. which has always seemed stupid to me.
you'll need to use ODIN to flash the rom again

ODIN is for samsung phones.
After I modified the build.prop file I forgot to change the file rights and now it is stuck on a black screen with the led on green/blue
I have a backup of the original file on the SD.
The phone can get into download mode.
I have already tried the factory reset but nothing.
I have tried the unroot metod from the post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/general/unroot-return-to-factory-stock-att-lg-g3-t2820827
But I got this message:

Device Model is different!
Check Phone or DLL!
My phone model is the AT&T LG G3 32Gb D850 Metalic Black
Please, can someone helpme?
I am desperate!
Sorry I'm a Samsung guy, lg tool or whatever it is.
There is a file from the g2 that makes it so the model doesn't matter you'll need that

Ok i edited the build.prop, apparently I did something wrong, I can only boot to black screen with blue/green flashing led. I did back up my original build.prop, and I can get phone into download mode....just not sure what to do from here. I am using a mac, but I can get to a PC if needed. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hi all, have a problem with the build.prop. I edited my build.prop file and made it rw-rw-rw which on reboot caused my device to not get past the boot screen. I need to edit the build.prop and make it rw-r-r but because my device is a intel atom device which has a locked bootloader and stock recovery im out of ideas. I use a CWM Tether file to root the device but even with that i cant use chmod 644 build.prop. Also my device has no stock rom images on there site so im out of ideas. Is there anyway to get past this so i could set the build.prop back to default? I thought i had a copy on the device but looks like i aint.
Hello
Welcome to XDA Assist
Can you tell me what device are you using ?
Have a good day !
