Custom Rom Build.Prop Edit - Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers

If I install a custom rom, can I edit the build.prop? If so, is there a certain custom rom, I need to look for?
I saw where I may be able to go back to Android 10, install TWRP, pull and push needed files?

[Q] How to replace a stock kernel with another inside a rom.

I've been opening up cm roms and modifying them to the way I want them, replacing audio files, wallpapers, apps, icons, theme, etc etc for a few months now. I know how to include gapps into a rom successfully so I dont have to flash that separatly. My question if I wanted to remove the stock kernel from a nightly and replace it with say pershoots kernel how would I go about that? Thanks in advance
go to chef central download the nadroid kitchen, ther eyou can extract the boot.img and replace the kernel and pack it up again and build into your om, the kitchen is great, go try it man so easy that way
Thanks man
Or use Koush's AnyKernel update.zip template.

[Q] custom boot animation from rom toolbox

I've been trying to load a custom boot animation from Rom toolbox. Not having any luck. It has an install option that doesn't seem to work. I've gone into system media file and there are no signs of any bootanimation.zip. I've copied the custom ba into the system bin and replaced the existing file with it and all I managed to do was get a black screen rather than the stock ba. As far as I can tell I have full r/w permissions. Am I going about it wrong or is Rom toolboxes boot animation not compatible with inspire?
Thanks

After replacing bootanimation.zip are you changing permissions to R/W, R, R? Don't know if it's necessary, but I always do it that way and have never had a problem.
If you don't see bootanimation.zip in /system/media/, do you see it in /system/customize/resource? If so, put it here
Youre the man. I didn't even think to look in there. Thank you

changes to build.prop or default.prop revert on reboot

I'm using stock, rooted rogers rom and any edits with root explorer or root browser I make refuse to stick after a reboot.
Anyone facing this issue? How can it be resolved short of flashing a custom rom (I prefer stock)
Id suggest downloading a custom rom like. The stock rooted 2.3.6 one. Open it on your pc do your build prop edits then recompress it copy it to your phone and flash it

I have been trying to edit my build.prop for a day now. it wont even save my changes and im using a custom rom. So how exactly does flashing the zip file work? do i just compress the build.prop to a zip file and then when i flash it in CWM it goes staight to the /system/ folder? or do i have to do something else? any help would be nice.
I am trying to change it to read that its a HTC desire so i can run some Gameloft games that our phone supports but Gameloft leaves our model number out of their supported list.
Thanks for you help.
Download a rom to your computer open the rom on. Your computer swap the build prop. Rezip the rom. Then put it on your phone and flash it

Don't think extract/zip will work, I believe default.prop is inside boot.img of the ROM which needs to be extracted and repackaged.
I have changed the build prop my self the way i told you and yes it did work

[REQUEST] Stock Boot Animation 5.1.1 Flashable Zip for Custom ROMs

Does anyone know how to get the STOCK Sprint boot animation from a stock rom? I've looked on extracting things from our .tar files but nothing clear on boot animations. I just like the stock animation, but want to stay on MOAR.
Any help on how to get it, or if someone could create it, that would be just plain jane awesomesauce.
Thanks,
Mike
assuming the CSC is correct on your rom of choice. The files you are looking for are in /system/media and they are SPR_bootsamsungloop.qmg, SPR_bootsamsung.qmg, and SPR_Shutdown.qmg. Taking a stock tar wont work, find yourself a stock rom, (deodex is fine) and grab the files and replace them and make sure to set permissions and you should be fine.
