I have 2 copies of each ringtone/notification. I only need one copy lol. How do i accomplish this?
Use root exployer, go into ur system folder and manually delete it, I'd say
Edit: system/media/audio/ringtones...

I i want to modify build.prop, will i need a program to find it in my phone? i found the one in root file explorer but it wont let me modify it so i can make icons bigger . Any help for the noob. Only asking as new thread because i have friends who want to find out too...
If you long press on the file in root explorer you can thumb down to: open with text editor...
Then after you save it it automatically makes a copy of the original file just in case you need to revert

Correct, also make sure you're in r/w, not r/o otherwise it won't let you edit or save
Very true my friend! I forgot to mention that!

When you open root explorer you will see a box at the top that says Mount RW...tap on that

It ends up that I don't have root explorer and can't buy it. Is there another program like that, that I can use.

Even though you're on another phone, if your rom is in a zip format. You can simply:
- Unzip the rom
- Locate the build.prop
- Open it with wordpad or notepad++
- Edit it
- Save it
- Rezip the rom
- Flash
Well he would also have to edit the update script if he doesn't use a program like winrar or 7zip. Simply extracting the rom zip and making edits to the bp then rezipping the rom won't work. When he goes to flash it if I'm not mistaking it will give the update script error.

I am unable to find the required folder on my nook.
Assuming you are rooted, how are you trying to find the folder?

Using Root Explorer I am unable to find the proper folder for this hack.
I can find it no problem on Phiremod 5.1 installed to internal.
What ROM are you running, and is it internal or external?
Where do you struggle (can you see any of the folders)?

As my sig says I am running 0.6.8 NookieFroyo on SD. I don't want to write to the eMMC so I can boot stock or a custom ROM.
I can see the folders but there is no init.d folder in the etc folder. Do you think I can just add it?
Sorry man, I don't see your sig via Tapatalk...
Just adding an init.d folder won't help, unless your system has something looking for it. I'm not sure how the SD roms are built, so you may want to try and contact the dev...

If you just want the boost and don't mind paying then you can always search for "sd card booster" on market
Where can i get these apps I know the apex 8.1 rom uses them but im trying another rom and id like to have these two apps. I backed them up with titanium but i guess its not working because it wont let me restore them.
It is probably a system app. What you can do is open up the zip file for the old rom, find the app you want, and drop it in system/app using root explorer.

I tried but its not in its system app folder
never mind found it, it was in the DATA section of apex Im assuming you can make a custom rom by swapping parts

Clear this up for me and everyone else. What is going on here with the data/media? Also it seems like it's just me but when I moved my files from there to sdcard everything was deleted after reboot so I have none of my old stuff.

Welcome to Android 4.2.2. Your files need to be under folder 0 to be seen correctly.

I've never seen this on my n7. Also why is it when I place a file in /sdcard using root explorer the files get deleted on reboot?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Not sure on that one, mate, but if you place them on /sdcard/0 they should stick without issue.
Sent from my Galaxy Note 8
I know you can place things in /storage/emulated/0 and it works but on my nexus 7 I just use /sdcard and everything is fine. Here when I reboot it says files there are temporary and are deleted on reboot.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Hmm, I'll fide around with mine. I've never heard of files being placed on any storage location being deemed temporary and deleted. There's another guy in a thread up who can only get things to stixk/flash when he pushes them to /data/media/

Maybe I need to reflash. I think I'm gonna wipe my sdcard when I do and start from scratch.

Flash first THEN wipe! ... or else adb sideload is your friend!
(But I've seen you around here enough that you should know better... so just in case!)
Well it's not doing it anymore. It did it long enough to delete all my other files because I thought I had to place all my stuff there. Oh well, I'm just missing like 10 songs and some pictures from my current backup files.

I've tried a couple of different ways and even tried changing permissions in root explorer but I cannot seem to delete the Renovate file this was a ROM I had a few months ago, I only noticed it was taking up a good bit of space so went to delete but it won't allow me do so.
Surely there has to be a way to delete this file, any ideas?

There's no option in TWRP to allow me to delete this file you cannot delete individual files while in recovery (unless I'm missing something)
There's gotta be a way to delete this , taking up unnecessary space.
