[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 .
Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App

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

Hmm, wich nightly do you have?

CyanogenMod-7-Nightly-buzz

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.

(Arabic Persian support) Work on all Android ROMs

Hey guys
Arabic support on gingerbread and previous versions of android is really a pain in the ass .. at last there is a patch to work on any ROM
Its simple and effective
1. You need a rooted phone.
2. You need the ROM's source (zip file).
3. A ClockworkMod Recovery to flash the created zip file.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible if u bricked your phone.
How to do it:
1. Download the tool from
For All Roms - here.
For MIUI - here.
2. Extract the tool to a folder.
3. Search for a folder called input folder and open it.
3. Open your ROM source with any zip software or extract it.
4. Search for 3 files
A. framework.jar - Found in: /system/framework
B. libwebcore.so - Found in: /system/lib
C. libandroid_runtime.so - Found in: /system/lib (HTC Sense and AOSP ROMs ONLY)
5. Copy these 3 files in the input folder we have previously opened.
6. Run commands.exe
7. Follow on screen instructions till it finishes making your flashable Arabic - Persian fix
8. You will find your fix in the output folder, copy it to your SD card and flash it through the recovery (Make a nandroid backup before flashing it)
At last your ROM can read the Arabic - Persian letters correctly. Enjoy
P.S i am not the developer of this tool i just tested the tool and it works like a charm. All the thanks goes to the devs of this tool.
P.S Your rom must be deodexed, take care of this.

Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

using arabic_script for samsung p1010 wifi
i copy and pasted 3 files from sys of my android to input folder but my framework.jar is too small (12.2 kb) compare to original one and it gives error while using commands.exe .
any suggestions?
edit: your rom must be deodexed ,took me half a day to find this out. .check that before u do anything

Thanks a lot dear

Nice
Thank you !!!!!!! :victory:

I flashed the output zip file through recovery, the process was aborted so the flashing failed. The ROM is fine, nothing damaged.
My question is:
Is it safe if I replaced the output files inside the ROM's zip file and then install the ROM again?

Yes

Yes it's perfectly safe. I always did that with MIUI roms, by putting the arabic in the zip file then flash it. To be 100% safe just do a nandroid backup before flashing the new rom with the arabic files. Hope that helps, try it and get back to me.

I put the arabic files into the ROM zip file, wiped data and cache and performed a nandroid backup.
But when I tried installing the ROM with arabic files it said that the installation is aborted! What could be my mistake?
This is the exact text displays after the failed installation:
Installing update...
E: Error in /sdcard/Creed_3.5_totoro.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
I use Creed ROM 3.5 for Samsung Galaxy Y.
Am I using the right ROM for the right device? or can u help me get through this problem?

Did u replace the right files as mentioned in the tutorial, just make sure that everything is going exactly as mentioned above or in the tool itself. I tried this tool with more than 10 roms and it worked perfectly with every rom coz it injects the arabic to the framework itself. Please try again and make sure everything is done in the right way and get back to me.

Thank you very much!
I messed up before, but now...
My phone can read and write Arabic letters properly!
before i was worried because it won't write Arabic, but now I found the option in the Ice cream sandwich keypad.
Thank u so much!

At last

I am happy it worked for you at last. To write arabic download a third party keyboard that supports arabic. My recommendation is swiftkey 3, it's an amazing keyboard. If u r using the market alternative "Aptoide" add my store at http://haithammotawee.bazaarandroid.com or http://haithammotawee.aptoide.store.com and u will find the application on it.
Happy i could help you, enjoy ur Arabic phone.
P.S like the post please if it was helpful to you.

I used Root Explorer to edit the build.prop's last line.
Default density was 210, I changed it to 188.
Remember, latest Kernel patch restores Original Density.
So, If you want, I can give you step by step instructions.

thanks

Density Changed
I Have also dialer problem.. so please help step by step how to changed density...

Dude, for gallery and music items to show, you have to wait for a while.
And regarding density, follow these steps:
1.Download and Install Root Explorer Or your favorite app which can access system files.
2. Go to Root/System and Mount it R/W (Rewritable)
3. Open build.prop file using text editor.
4.Scroll to last line of the file, if there is a line like 'ro.sf.lcd_density=<value>' then alter '<value>' to your suitable DPI (I'm Using 188 DPI). If there is no line like above, then simply add one.
5. Save the file and 'Normal Reboot' your handset.
6.Voila!
Or, You can download ROM toolbox and use the build.prop editor to do the same!!

Shutter Sound Setting in Camera[Easy Method]

Im new here so i dont know if this is the right forum for this anyways lets start
this mod will enable you to have shutter setting in Camera.
Rooted Phone only.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Install Root Explorer and SQLite Editor find one if you dont have yet.
2.Open Root Explorer go to system>csc find feature.xml
3.Open feature.xml in Text Editor search for
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
change false to true.
4.Now lets go to SQLite Editor search for Setting Storage > Settings.db > system and then search for "csc_pref_camera_forced_shuttersound_key" change the value from 1 to 0.
5.Restart you phone then check if you have it on your Camera settings
Im using Galaxy S4 E330L but im pretty sure it will work on any Galaxy S4 version.
See attachments for more info about the steps.

Before I try this, can you confirm that this also works with Android 5.0.1 (Stock Rom,rooted) ?
And will this remove all camera sounds? I already renamed some of the .ogg files, so most sounds are gone (start/stop video, shutter etc.).
But the most annoying sound (for me) is still there - the constant beeping when taking a panorama shot.
I also couldn´t get rid of the sound in the mode selection (the clicking sound when flicking through the modes).

it will work on 5.0.1 and yes it will disable the sound of video and camera shutter,burst shot etc . Actually you dont need to change any ogg file with this mod.
sound that you cannot remove(yet):
Mode Selection
Setting Clicks.

Some stock ROM or CSC does not allow you to turn off camera sound. Your method can get the menu appear, but user can't select Off
I believe you use a custom ROM on your E330L, not stock one.
