Encrypted XML

I was wondering about the xml encryption in the applications, are they encrypted at build time, and what kind of encryption?

they are a sort of binary encryption and it is done at build time.
Ya have to go to the source to see them in plain text.

Is there another way to decrypt *.xml files without knowing the source code...??????

look up brut.all's apktool
you can use that as a codec for the xml's in apks

How to edit Version Number and name in a custom rom?

Is there some way that i can edit the version number and other options like android version, rom.name etc. in the about phone menu, in a custom rom?

But i am curious. Is there really a way?

Hello !!!!
Hello,
you must edit the build.prop.
i never do it myself but see this thread
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/edit-your-build-prop-the-easy-way-with-buildprop-editor/
good luck
see this link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.nathan.jf.build.prop.editor&feature=search_result

you can also use esfile explorer with root permissions. just open it with the note editor.
had no idea someone made an app specifically to do the build.prop edits... handy...

But when I edit the build.prop in FroyoPro and do a reboot, the name persists.
But the same worked for AtiFroyo5.2. I could easily convert the version name form Andoid 2.2.1 to 4.0.4
Any idea?

[Q] Can i edit build.prop to make phone think its a tablet?

I want to use the tablet version of Slingplayer on my Evo LTE instead of the phone version for higher resolution. I know this may not be possible anyway. But can i edit the build.prop to make my phone think its a Xoom or Transformer to maybe get this to work?

It is possible to edit build.prop doing but just remember it comes with its own issues. The east way to do it its download ROM toolbox from the market and go to build.prop tweaks. Choose anything from 160-240. 160 its tablet size.

I am afraid it is a little more complicated then that....
If you do it manually, you have to make sure the right settings are set up on ES or Root Explorer. Here is a good guide for future reference.

[Q] AGPS build.prop fix

I read in the development to fix the AGPS setting you needed to modify the build.prop and add the following entry if it isn't already there to: ro.ril.def.agps.mode=1
Does it matter where specifically I put this line?
Thanks.

It doesn't matter where you put it

Yea it doesnt matter, but it matters were you put your question at

[Guide] All apps in splitview

Must be rooted. Edit build.prop persist.splitwindow .support_all
open system folder
-scroll to build.prop (past folders)
-copy/make backup
-open as text in text editor
-scroll to persist.splitwindow.support_all
-change value to true
- save and reboot
Depending on your app/tool you may need to copy build.prop somewhere, edit and replace old one in system with edited version.
Enjoy.

rooted but can't find build.prop
I'm rooted but having trouble finding build.prop to edit so I can have all apps on split screen. I just came over from HTC my and that was a difficult phone to root so I feel I can do it on this OS but I'm just asking if you can give me a step by step walk through. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanked.

You need a good file manager with system access or an app or an app to edit build.prop. I use rom toolbox pro. Root Explorer is a good option I've used before too.

mjgspr95 great info - Might want to edit the OP to show the procedure and possibly change the title to [GUIDE] How to enable all apps in SplitView just to make it easier to find for people and keep the forums organized - also I am pretty sure this should be in General. But thank you for the info - it worked great for me.
and for those who are looking for a file browser - might want to check out ROOT Explorer

I bet you are trying to use Root Explorer to edit the file. Unfortunately the file size is too big and Root Explorer A) won't even show the entire file's contents and B) won't let you save the file even if the right commands were editable......
You have to find another alternative. Personally I pushed the file out of the phone, edited it on my computer, and pushed it back to the phone. It worked fine.

As much as I like (and also recommend) Root Explorer, it won't work with the build.prop file as it is too big for the Root Explorer text editor.

I use root explorer as well. I didn't realize that the text editor cant handle that large of a file... Anyway this is the way that I got around it on my Mac:
On Mac:
adb pull /system/build.prop .
vi build.prop
<Make changes>
adb push ./build.prop /mnt/sdcard/
On phone:
Remount /system RW in Root explorer
Rename /system/build.prop to /system/build.prop.bak
Move /sdcard/build.prop to /system/build.prop
Reboot

You could always just download build prop editor from the play store and it works and is easy.

Edited the build.prop file. Ended up soft bricking my phone. Was able to reset but not fun.

This is an app that doesn't require mucking with build prop. Works well for me.
