Droid 4 build.prop and safestrap? - Motorola Droid 4

So I edited my build.prop changing
ro.product.model to LT18I
ro.product.brand to SEMC
ro.product.device to LT18Ii
in order to install and play modern combat 3 as I haven't safestrapped my phone yet I naturally wanted to change it back to the original values to prevent any complications. I did it from memory and I think I got it right but I haven't rebooted yet, could anyone tell me if these are the correct values?
ro.product.model DROID4
ro.product.brand verizon
ro.product.device cdma_maserati
(Also like to add changing the build.prop files worked wonderfully, did not even have to reboot to be able to install MC3. Even after I changed my build.prop back I was still able to play)
Also I'm trying to safestrap my device but hashcode has moved his blog and I CAN'T FIND THE DOWNLOAD OR INSTALL FILES . Anyone know where I can find these ?

Modern Combat 3 issues

Got it working! i've had loads of people PM me about this issue so i have now edited second post with the fix to the issue
Hi All, im having issues getting MC3 to run on my HD2 i keep getting a bootloop on 2 of my roms, im using SD builds of AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB2.3.7 CM7.2 and NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA-SD V2.0 and it will start to load, download the last 4MB of the game using the Asus TF101 Mod v1.1.1 apk then i click play it goes through the first video then as it gets to start loading the menu it will loop back to before the video, edited my build.prop on both build so phone appears as the Desire HD and im from the uk so language is already UK in android OS, what else do i need to do? i've tried several apk's and several sets of Adreno SD data, not sure what else there is i can do? any help will be appreciated, thanks
To get MC3 working on my HD2 i first had to switch to a Android NAND ROM im using tytungs NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.1 (Kernel: tytung_HWA_r2.4-uniMAC) i then had to edit my build.prop to match this, its from the Inspire/Desire HD
i'd recommend getting ROMtoolbox, backing up your current build.prop then editing the lines mentioned below
ro.product.model=Desire HD
ro.product.brand=htc_wwe
ro.product.name=htc_ace
ro.product.device=ace
ro.product.board=spade
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
ro.product.locale.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=US/UK <-- Depending on your region, mine was set to UK as its where im from and users reported UK can help as some devices won't boot the game unless system language isn't set to UK
i used this apk *REMOVE WAREZ* then downloaded data etc via wifi if you then wish to you can backup the modified build.prop and then restore your original build.prop in ROMtoolbox but market and everything else works fine for me without restoring the original build.prop
if you have any more issues PM me and will help you out!

just follow second post and it should work for your device, same applies to all other HTC devices of similar spec to the HD2 getting this incompatibility error
besides changing the the build.prop one should go to settings/applications/all/google services.../ and clear data. should work
i have the same problem on skyrocket... how do i do that on the second post? where and how do i edit that build.prop?

Device images for developers

I'm trying to resurrect alternative ROM development, CM9 with the target.
For analysis I want to ask advanced users to export images of their devices.
I am interested in ICS upgraded devices.
How to:
You have to be rooted.
Connect you device to ADB.
Export copy of your partitions by executing in adb terminal
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/mnt/sdcard/ROW-32-3G-Recovery-mmcblk0p1.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 of=/mnt/sdcard/ROW-32-3G-Boot-mmcblk0p2.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 of=/mnt/sdcard/ROW-32-3G-System-mmcblk0p3.img
You should name images with REGION-CAPACITY-NETWORK-xxxxxx, see my example in code.
After having images, post location, where devs can download it or PM me to find a way to transfer it.
I will make repository of all gathered versions and make it available to other developers.
Reserved for repository links
I'm assuming your looking for dumps of someone who isn't already on the 0.0.7.3 CM9 Alpha? I'm willing to help push development of an alternate roms as I just hate the lenovo changes to just stock android. Let me know if I can be of service
Of course dumps of Lenovo Roms. My target is CM9, but analysis of Lenovo way and ripping some binary blobs (like libs) will be helpfull.
We have to start from somewhere

TPT_OTA3_US_ICS_rooted.zip is a Nandroid I made AFTER a factory reset and the OTA3 update but BEFORE I rebooted into ICS for the first time. CWR was lost after reboot. Root was preserved.
I'm not sure what use it will be... I don't have any tests to report. I was hoping that it might allow someone to get the official ICS update without losing CWR but I would feel terrible if someone bricked their TPT with this backup. If someone confirms it's usefulness I would be pleased.

Ok, I guess I'll be the first So no matter how much you look via a file browser after mounting your TPT within your OS you will not find the dump files (at least on Windows, I didn't try my Linux box). Lenovo somehow filters out .img files or something. I tried renaming the file extension but I still wasn't able to see them.
So, I had to use adb to grab them. Simply:
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/US-16-WIFI-Recovery-mmcblk0p1.img
Anyways, here are my dumps for my tablet. The system dump is almost ~800MB so I'm gonna have to see where I can upload it. I might try Drive in a bit and I'll update the list.
US-16-WIFI-Recovery-mmcblk0p1.img

Speed Tweaks for Blur ROMS

This will only modify what needs to be tweak in the build.prop.
It will not modify anybody else's build.prop work.
This means it can be used after you install a custom ROM and
keep any changes your dev has made to their own build.prop.
I have screen shots of my 3 Mps DSL Line and my LTE.
If it gives any indication about how much more performance gain there is
WiFi gives me up to 2.9 Mbps normally.
LTE gives me close to 30 Mbps normally.
Revision 2:
little less aggressive on the phone itself
little bit better WiFi and LTE speeds
cleaned up TONS of code and named everything!
Also the 2nd version will save a backup so you
can restore your old build.prop if you do not like
the changes that were made from from the tweaks.
AND it should keep the original build.prop.
Mind you, the undoer will only work with version 2.
you can also make a swap file (paging file like windows)
command will be
# busybox mkswap /dev/block/zram0
# chmod 077 /dev/block/zram0
# reboot

I have tried and failed miserably! I am no means a "true" programmer BUT
I have a work around for the people with SS3. Although it does involve a
terminal emulator which is free and the Google Play Store link is BAM!
I will make a flashable fix in the morning with instructions on how to do it.
I will also have a screenshot of what to type as well. The script will still do
the same thing as the flashable BUT in the terminal (manual way)
Just ran the .sh
I just modified and ran the SH from the command line. Only had to remove one > per file. Thanks, my speed increase isn't amazing, but its solid. You are Awesome.
Is there a way to flash this in ss305 yet or what
No, I'm sorry, haven't time to work on it. right now the work around is through a shell and reboot

[Q] Build.prop tweaks?

Hi everyone,
Too keep things short on my end, check this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560588
I would like to apply some of these tweaks to my build.prop file, with special attention to touch responsiveness.
Has anyone had any experience with this? Are these settings safe to apply to our phone or do we end in a boot-loop when attempting this?
Nah, u wont get a bootloop. But i only look them only few lines. Im not sure about first tweak. But others also in many roms. Make a backup before doing
Sent from my X8 using Tapatalk 2
Well, I tried applying some of the tweaks, but none of the changes stuck. Whenever I was to reboot, build.prop just reverts to default, as if no changes took place. Any ideas how to go around this? Is it even possible to do those tweaks on stock kernel?
For the changes I used the built-in text editor in Root Browser Lite. I'm on FroyoPro v2.5, and I have a stock kernel. Unfortunately, it's impossible to unlock to bootloader to change the kernel on my phone.

Hey, you're right !
Weird how I didn't notice it before. So, I edit both of them to make the changes stick? Or perhaps just the one in system/bin? Or maybe dual build.prop files make this kind of tweaking impossible?
So as to make the changes stick, you will have to edit both the build.props..

Yup ,edit both of them

If there's a build.prop present in /system/bin, you only need to edit that one.
Both files can be changed, but it is not necessary. This can easily be tested by changing just the build.prop file found in /system/bin, reboot and you'll see the changes were also applied in the file found in /system/.

[MOD][SMALI] Enable Native AT&T / Tmobile WiFi Hotspot[MOD][SMALI]

Guide: Howto enable Native AT&T / Tmobile WiFi Hotspot​
Locate stock/unmoddified TetheringProvision.apk
This apk is located in /system/app folder from almost any Stock Samsung ROM
Or pull from your device.
connect your device to your PC
Make sure you have the appropriate USB drivers installed
make sure Android SDK Tools are installed
cd to the platform-tools folder in the SDK location
start a command prompt in the Platform-Tools folder
adb pull /system/app/TetheringProvision.apk
Using available tools to decompile and recompile the apk
I recommend either Virtuous Ten Studio or APK-Multi-Tool for this task as
either provide an easy to use interface for working with apk edits.
I'm not placing download links here for either just do a google search and
you will easily find either one.
Decompile the TetheringProvision.apk
Once you have the apk decompiled browse to the folder containing
all of the decompiled code (You will need to be in the smali folder).
locate and edit "TetheringProvisionActivity$TetheringPlanCheckTask.smali" (com/sec/tetheringprovision)
For AT&T WiFi Hotspot
search for "entitlement.mobile.att.net" and replace with "stacra.byethost7.com"
search for all instances of "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/mhs1" and replace with "http://stacra.byethost7.com/tether/"
search for all instances of "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/teth" and replace with "http://stacra.byethost7.com/tether/"
For Tmobile WiFi Hotspot
search for all instances of "http://selfhelp.geo.t-mobile.com/myaccountservice/selfhelp/hastetheringoption"
and replace with "http://stacra.byethost7.com/tether/"
See code snippet below for example (not complete code)
The lines you will be looking for are highlighted in blue.
Code:
.prologue
.line 1116
iput-object p1, p0, Lcom/sec/tetheringprovision/TetheringProvisionActivity$TetheringPlanCheckTask;->this$0:Lcom/sec/tetheringprovision/TetheringProvisionActivity;

iput-object v0, p0, Lcom/sec/tetheringprovision/TetheringProvisionActivity$TetheringPlanCheckTask;->ATTMHSPlanCheckURL:Ljava
/lang/String;
...
...
...
Once you have located and replaced all the required lines in the smali save the file and recompile your apk following the instructions provided by whatever method you choose to work with
DO NOT SIGN THE APK LEAVE THE EXISTING SIGNATURE IN PLACE
Push the apk back to your device and reboot, test to verify working Hotspot.
Thanks
Thanks to @scrosler over at the LG forums for the original code of this patch
it has been changed and revised a few times since the original port by me over
in the HTC Forums.

Look, I think you should improve the guide only works for at&t and tmobile.
I modified "TetheringProvision" in this guide and nothing, the same error: "Mobile data is not avaible or invalid SIM". Does not work with another carrier other than att or tmobile.
The only way that works for me is to replace the apk dirty "TetheringProvision" method Galaxy S4.
Corroborate if someone worked with different operator, for example, movistar latin america or other provider other country.

obviously your carrier uses different methods to provision tethering, if you can tell me what methods they use i might be able to adjust for it
and P.S. if you can read you would see it says AT&T or Tmobile, i only offered as a hope that maybe other carriers used the same methods, so if you want me to look into it might try asking nicely.

No modifications to my code without roper recognition
I'm normally a pretty easy going kind of guy, but sometimes I get a little testy when certain things happen, so I'm only going to say this once.
IF YOU USE MY WORK OR MODIFY IT IN ANY FASHION YOU MUST ASK MY PERMISSION FIRST, AND IN NO WAY OR FASHION ARE YOU ALLOWED TO REPOST YOUR MODIFICATIONS IN MY THREAD.
This includes creating patches for other systems, patches for same systems at request of other members etc.
If this happens again I will give proper warning and then I will close and delete the thread and that will be that.
This is an awesome community way beyond expectations however, I am a stickler for protocol, if you ask I'll will give permission 100% of the time as long as it is mine to give.

lol i learned how to build roms before decompiling apks as i find it easier.. i guess youre suppose to be smart enough to pull the apk, decompile the apk, edit the apk, recompile the apk and possibly sign it afterwards in order to use this MOD! Good Luck! Without a pre modded apk I will hafta wait until the weekend to ask for permission to include in my ATT ROM

really? Seriously? This is probably one of the easiest mods EVER, and since this mod can be adopted accross carriers posting a "premodded apk" would be time consuming as i would have to have the specific apk from every carrier.
THIS IS a thread on HowTo not a thread on Here you go have it...
P.S. if your building a ROM to post in the forums might be a good idea not to ruffle the feathers of the DEVS whose work you want to include.

I do not own an ATT s5.. I have a vzw s5.. searching online you can find similar MOD for tethering that has been around for some time with the same exact edits as your MOD. Either way I am sorry if I offended you. I just feel it would be easier for ATT owners to have a modded apk that they can use for their ATT roms considering this is the ATT thread.. What youre implying is no one can take your mod edit (most likely found from someone else) and make an apk for others to use who do not have the ability to do it themselves. Android is about being open source and sharing with the community not providing a mod that is easily found throughout these forums and saying no one else can use it or post an apk without your permission or knowledge of how to make the edits in the first place.
Again, i am glad for what you do but a mod that has been around for some time isnt something one can claim as theres just because theyre first to post in a certain thread.
And all i was saying is why not post a modded apk or let someone else just with the att apk for att users in this thread? Not to go and make one for every device.. but hey, i will not add your mod to any rom I work on.. I will find one of the other devs MOD and give them the cred.
edit: here is the same mod from over a year ago:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2278259
Of course you used a different server address but the mod is the same. You only need to direct the mod to a server that enables the hotspot to be turned on.

read the OP, it says where the mod came from scrossler over in the LG forums,(which by the way is the original mod this is based on) the design of this mod is different than his and has more edits. so yes this is based on his mod but is my work. i highly doubt you found lots of mods with the exact same edits as the edits in my mod point to my specific servers and are handled differently than others.
I am not posting a modded apk nor will I this thread is a guide on how to do it yourself.
nuff said thread closed.
AND P.S. THIS MOD IS ONLY FOR AT&T AND TMOBILE, NOT FOR VERIZON.
