Is there any way, to change the timestamp of files without a rooted S6? Maybe via OTG?
Could someone please help?
It's not possible. Only workaround: turn on flight mode, change system time to desired time, copy/touch the file, change system time back to current time.

Can someone help me out with the Multi-view hack to add all apps?...I just used the editing method for adding all apps to the multi-view window. All the steps went fine, but now that I'm done I can't get Multi-view to work AT ALL! I enabled it, held the back button down over and over and it does absolutley NOTHING. I am on stock 4.1.1, rooted with unlocked bootloader and I have a nandroid backup that I made just before attempting this, but since everything else on my Note 2 is still working I'm waiting and hoping that someone out there knows what's going on and has a fix for it.
Here are the steps that I took:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Download modified odex file (multiwindow.zip) by hairdewx (mirror), and extract services.odex FlashBarService.odex files. After that copy both files into your device.
2. Get file manager app that can open the system apps, such as ES File Explorer or Root Explorer that can be found on Play Store.
3. Mount the system partition as Read/Write (R/W).Mount to R/W and Replace Files
4. Copy and replace “FlashBarService.odex” to “/system/app” folder, as well as “services.odex” to “/system/framework” folder. If you have difficulty to replace services.odex, reboot your device. In case you experiencing bootloop after replacing services.odex, then you need to pull out and reinsert the battery, if the bootloops remains, just flash the root image with ODIN to fix it.
5. Reboot your Galaxy Note II.
6. Open the file manager again, delete “com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService” from “/data/data” folder, then reboot once again.
7. (Optional) Open “/data/data” folder again, if you find the “/flashbar” folder, just delete it.
Now you should have been able to add any apps to the Multi Window bars on Verizon Galaxy Note 2, and also run two applications at the same time (MultiView). If you can’t find an edit button, it’s likely that you on 240 DPI, just switching back to 320 DPI, edit button will reappears.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's it. I did all of these steps with no problems but as mentioned, now I can't get Multiview to work at all. I have tried restarting several times and also did a battery pull but no luck. Please HELP!
Edited...PROBLEM SOLVED AFTER FACTORY DATA RESET. Thanks.
I've been trying to modify my build.prop to enable carrier billing on my T-mobile One S with Zen Rom 1.05, but every time I reboot it reverts back to the one that came stock with the rom. I'm mounting R/W and I've copied the file onto my SD card after editing it to be sure it was actually saving. The copied file shows all of the changes, so I'm sure it is, but as soon as I reboot, the one in \system reverts. I've tried build.prop editors from the market, and editing it from root explorer's text editor, and it's all the same. Any ideas?
Thanks!
I've got myself into quite a predicament. I was trying to install a dictionary for a 4.4 keyboard on my 4.1.2 torque, and in doing so I found that I may want to change the build.prop. Before I even reboot the device I see that that would only work if I were installing through the market, and so I replace the build.prop with an exact copy of the original file. I reboot and then the device will not boot. I guess something must have gone wrong with es explorer. I do not know how to fix the build.prop file because 1. I can't find the file available online yet and 2. this phone has no recovery, so I cannot access it through adb. I can however access it through fastboot when I put it in fastboot mode. This phone also has a download mode I magically got into, but it cancelled itself out after 10 seconds and I don't know how to get back into it or what purpose it would serve.
Does anybody know a way I may be able to push a new build.prop file to my phone? Perhaps I could use the fastboot flash command if I could find the build.prop info? This is my primary phone so any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Allan
I got the build.prop backup off my sd card, but I still don't know how to push it. Would it be possible to get a copy of the system partition through fastboot, inject the build.prop into it, then reflash? Wouldn't that just be doing the same thing that got me into this mess though?
After trying and trying and failing, I have finally figured out a way to port a rom to the Cube T7.
This has proven the only method (in my experience) to work. All the standard methods have failed
each time.
WARNING!!!!! THIS COULD BRICK OR DAMAGE YOUR PHONE
YOU ARE TRYING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE
FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE!!!!
Things you need.
latest Spftool
and the Rom package
NOTE:You need to know that you can't just flash the package I put together. You will
need to use the TWRP recovery that comes in the package to transfer file from your external sd to
the system folder and so forth. Also the proper permission to set.
Step 1: Flashing the images.
I've already pulled the correct img from each folder and put it together for you.
The only thing that you will need to do is extract the folder and use the spf tool to
install the firmware.
Note** In order to keep the 3.97 app storage, I've had to make sure to use the
Spf tool to do a full format except for the bootloader.
Step 2: Repairing the Rom
In the rar package, I included all the files need to fix the rom so
it will work smoothly on your phone. The files can be located in
the "system" folder which will need to be copied to your external sdcard
At this point you will already have flash the images and turn on the phone.
You will notice that the after you turn it on, you will get a warning that says "Cpu overheating"
or at least to that affect. This is not true by the way, this is from the fact the tp settings are off
from the original rom. Either way the warning will force boot your phone which again is fine.
Once this happens you will need to go to recovery.
Once in recovery make sure that you go ahead and mount your
system partition.
With this done you will be able to go to /system/etc/.tp
This folder contains the files that control the thermal manager for
the rom. You want to delete this folder. YES DETELE IT!!!
Once deleted, go to the system folder that you should have copied to your
external Sdcard. You need to copy /system/etc/tp to the exact location that you
just deleted the original.
Once you've done this you will need to set the permissions for the folder and the
files contained. The folder needs to be set to 0755 and the files inside need to be set to 0644.
Once done its best to go ahead and use the recovery to flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip to root your device before
restarting. Once restarted you will need to use root explorer or es explorer root function to
copy all the files to there correct locations and set their permissions. Each file is in its corresponding
folder as it should be in the system partition. All you will need to do is copy and past from the folder on the external and
paste to the same folder in the system partition. For those that may not know, all files will be set to 0644/rw--r--r-- and folders that you copy over will be 0755/rwxr-xr-x (if your using root explorer, just un check the group and others on the "Write" permissions.
Whats not working?
I can't figure out how to get the camera to working.
I've used standard tuts to try and copy the right files or libs
but not luck as of yet. If anyone figures out a way please share!!!
Also, if you have the fold case, the screen does not come on when you
open the fold. Also when double tapping the screen, this does not take it out of sleep
mode. From what I've seen those are the only things that dont work. If you see something
else, please report it to this thread.
Also in the package you will find the Carliv 3.3 recovery version for our phone.
Thanks to kushyree from needrom.com for building it for us.
He also has been assisting me in trying to port other roms to our phone. We owe him a lot of thanks.
Let me know if you guys need any help with this. I will do the best I can to try and help out. Enjoy.
I'm currently trying to change my system sounds on my phone. Any time I copy any files into the System folder my phone reboots. This happens even in TWRP. I would like to replace my Charger_Connection.ogg but am at a wall I can't find a work around to on google. Is there any way to prevent my phone from resetting in order to successfully copy to the System folder? My phone is currently rooted with TrapKernel. Any help would be appreciated.
