changing regulatory information - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am curious if anyone knows how to change what is displayed when going to settings > about phone > regulatory information. How do I change that?

usually you can by open and editing build.prop in /system, check for the line you want to change and edit, or use an applike romtoolbox wich has an integrated build.prop editor
but your question does not belong to the android devolpment but to the Q&A, sorry but I've to report

[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

[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.

Working great, thanks! What kind of order are the apps in? Mine seems pretty random.

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.

build.prop settings

Hi,
I just got my band new Xperia M2 and now want to play with some build.prop settings, as I already did with my other phones...
I just rooted it, but before I start I want to ask if anyone can share some experience, do's and dont's...
At first I want to decrease the LCD density to 200.
And are there any other optimisations to you can recommend?
regards lightwaver

Hmmm... no-one here hero can give some tips?
Well, I've tried to set some properties but, after a reboot the original values are restored... it's there any backup I need to fix?

Most likely you haven't changed system from RO to RW...
Me myself doesn't change lots of things in build.prop... Why change pixel density though?
Well I wrote into the file and saved it successfully... using a simple editor and the build.prop editor... both usually can set the file to rw or show an error if it fails...
Usually that worked fine... (on my Samsung i9000, Sony Xperia P, Asus transformer,...)
But now i had to set the attributes manually... strange...
Now it works fine...
