How to configure
The program is easily to configure.
in your rom you need only a file named update_me.xml in the system folder.
The file must be like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<RomConfig>
<RomName>Name rom</RomName>
<RomVersion>0.1.0</RomVersion>
<RomCheckUrl>http://www.me.com/update_me_ckeck.xml</RomCheckUrl>
<RomElemUrl>http://www.me.com/update_me_parts</RomElemUrl>
<CheckMD5>0</CheckMD5>
<RebootRecovery>0</RebootRecovery>
</RomConfig>
and 2 other file must to be placed online:
- a file with rom info for check new rom availability
- a file with element for rom.
ATTENTION
When the rom is update, the new rom MUST contains a modified update_me.xml with new version,otherwise the app show always the message "new rom available"
an example config is available here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3681387/config_example.zip
the pack of available icon for tabs can download here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3681387/icons.zip
in the pack icon named icon_0.png is the number 0 of the config ;D
Supported file host
direct download file host
public folder on dropbox, box.net, etc
goo.im
xdafileserver.nl
androidfilehost.com
How check md5 work
if check md5 is enabled for a file, the program check for a file name with the same name of file plus .md5sum like: app.zip and app.zip.md5sum
with contains md5 plus filename.
if the host is goo.im the md5 is read directly from page

for those that like to add this to their Rom its easy all you do is add the update_me.xml file to your system folder.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<RomConfig>
<RomName>Name rom</RomName>
<RomVersion>0.1.0</RomVersion>
<RomCheckUrl>http://www.me.com/update_me_ckeck.xml</RomCheckUrl>
<RomElemUrl>http://www.me.com/common_update_me.xml</RomElemUrl>
<RomElemUrl>http://www.me.com/transformer_update_me_parts.xml</RomElemUrl>
<RebootType>1</RebootType><!-- 0 no install,1 install on cwm, 2 install openrecoveryscript -->
<FilterName>transformer</FilterName> <!-- Filter for element,if you don't need not insert-->
</RomConfig>
then the file
update_me_ckeck.xm you edit and add it to your files location
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Is there any way to update an existing XDA user account, such as change user e-mail address, or change or add an im'age? I've made several attempts, but haven't been able to find the method for accomplishing this.

[HOW TO] Enable Tegra 3 effects in Dead Trigger

Here's how you enable the Tegra 3 effects in Dead Trigger (water effect, ragdoll etc.)
I've done this myself and it works and runs great on my Galaxy Note (GT-7000)
1. First of all, enable graphics details to high in setup/others.
2. Exit game.
3. Use root explorer like ES File Explorer.
4. Go to /data/data/com.madfingergames.deadtrigger/shared_prefs/ folder.
5. Edit com.madfingergames.deadtrigger.xml file.
6. Change < int name=”UnityGraphicsQuality” value=”1″ /> to <int name=”UnityGraphicsQuality” value=”2″ / >.
7. Change < int name=”OptionsGraphicDetail” value=”2″ /> to <int name=”OptionsGraphicDetail” value=”3″ / >.
8. Save it.
9. Modify permissions to remove all write permission on User, Group and Other.
10. Delete com.madfingergames.deadtrigger.xml.bak.

Thanks for the tips!I will try it.

I tried it, works well on a galaxy s. I tried it on a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, i set the values and permissions, as soon as i run the game, the permissions will reset, such as the unitygraphicsquality back to 1...what should i do? The other value stays at 3 though

Thanks bro... it works on my Samsung Galaxy Mega GT-I9152, but I Think there's only one mistake with your guide bro... in step number 5 :
Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:layout="@layout/myawesomerom" android:title="" />
it should be
Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:layout="@layout/custombanner" android:title="" />
Please correct me if I was wrong...Thanks...

[Root] Dark mode for Whatsapp

Steps:
Use a root enabled file manager.
Root > Data > Data > com.whatsapp
Shared_perfs > com.whatsapp_prefrences.xml
Before </map> at the end, add this line of code:
<boolean name="dark_mode" value="true" />
Save the xml file.
Force close Whatsapp, reopen and the theme option should be available.
Credit goes to this article I came across:
https://www.**********.com/enable-whatsapp-dark-mode-root/

Does it work alright? I mean no crashing or UI inconsistencies with enabling it

Whatsapp Enable Dark Mode

Whatsapp Enable Dark Mode for rooted device only.
This is for information only. Do it on your own risk.
Make sure you have a file explorer that supports root. If you don’t have much idea about this, suggest you download the*Solid Explorer File Manager*from Play Store. Now when you open the app, grant it root access by tapping Allow in the Magisk pop-up that appears.*
Open File Manager and head over to the root partition.*
Then go to*Data*>*Data*and navigate to the*com.whatsapp*folder.
Go to the*shared_prefs*folder and search for the*com.whatsapp_preferences.xml*file.
Now add the below lines to that xml file, anywhere inside the*<map>*and*</map>*tags. This one line of code is, in fact, responsible for enabling Dark Mode on WhatsApp on rooted Android devices.
<boolean name="dark_mode" value="true" />
Next, tap on the floppy icon to save the file. Now just force close WhatsApp and re-open it.
Finally, head over to*Settings. You could now see the*Theme*option, just beneath Account. Tap on it and select*Dark.
That’s it.
Tested in android 9 and 10.
Example how i added that line
<boolean name="move_media_folder_from_sister_app" value="true" />
<int name="web_service_delay" value="120" />
<boolean name="search_in_storage_usage" value="true" />
<boolean name="third_party_sticker_caching" value="true" />
<boolean name="auth_fingerprint_enabled" value="true" />
<boolean name="dark_mode" value="true" />
</map>
I hv added in last line...
For example
