After flashing some roms my device changed from xt1063 to xt1068 and i think this is giving me the error when executing updater binary when flashing roms.How can i change it back to 1063?
You can use something like ES Explorer and go to device/system, touch build.prop and open it with ES Note Editor. Scroll down to the line ro.product.model and edit that line to read XT1063.

Flash a recovery for your device.
Or
Add the line in build.prop
or extract your ROM.zip edit update script (meta-inf/google/android/updater-script) and remove the device check lines, re zip and flash

didnt work :/
the model name is present on the build.prop file
it ROM must have that file, so if now your devices tink is any other name is just a name does not mean a thing, wen you try to flash other rom that rom will came with its on build.prop and will show the device name that is on that build.prop.
I dont see the problem you are mistaking things.:good:
but if you wanna to change try like other have told you... see pic you can set any name really will not change a ting.
how you can see my dont say XT****, wen i open app that show device model it show exactly what is on build.prop
Just Wipe ur /system/ directory and clean flash a new ROM (cm 12.1) , THis way ur build.prop is going to be wiped (as we are wiping /system ) and get recreated when u flash ur new ROM , Therby resoring the Original Build.prop

How to apply?
Interested! And how to apply your hack/patch to device? Please explain, coz i'm using device for only a couple of days.
there is an easier method, just in case...
u need root and then to extract bootloader file. open it with an text editor. then find the lines where u see "use audio 1", change 1 with 0 and then push back the file to replace the old one...

Using rootexplorer edit, Flash tool.

That problem I have but I searched theat build and find in system/bin/build and editet that and other in /system I don't know how is on Fd experience but on gingerxperia is
You have to edit both files in system/build.prop and system/bin/build.prop to make changes permanent.
And I think this applies on all ROMs.
Yes, must change /system/built.prop and /system/bin/built.prop to make a changes permanent for my rom it's /system/built.prop and /system/bin/built thanks
does anyone know if there is a .tar file or something so i could flash the my files app on my cappy that usually comes on the cappy with the official firmwares? i just need some kind of file to do that because i dont like astro and es file manager, etc. even a link to somewere where this has been done before would help, thanks.
Why use that when the others have a **** ton more functionality? Like root file exploration.
Do you have any .tar stock firmware package? Open that archive with 7zip and go to /system/app and drag it out...then use a root file explorer (lolz oh the irony) to drop it in /system/app
Or use adb to push it there
Or get a theme cwm zip package and delete all the files out of the folders (not touching the meta-inf folder) and drop it in /system/app and flash that.

I did indeed LOL
hmm...i think im gonna get the cwm package and just do that, do you have any link on one of those, if not then how can i get or look one of those up?
any theme zip will do, just not a ROM zip that has a kernel and modem in it you don't need top flash the theme zips ate just system apk files you can delete out and add your apk in. Make sure only that apk is in it though.
Hold on...I'll hey you a link where i posted a test zip you can use.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22271929&postcount=1403
In that post is a cwm zip, open that archive with 7zip go to /system/app delete what's there and drop that apk in. Then flash that in recovery.
ya well it didnt work..
Ya well you give more detail we can help.... "It didn't work" isn't very helpful for trouble shooting...
it said that the installation was aborted
What version of cwm do you have?
Or are you on an aosp ROM?
Just use a root explorer, go in and unzip any file that has it in it, then go to the extracted folder, long press on it and hit COPY, then back out until your at SYSTEM and paste it, then look for the file in SYSTEM and long press on it and choose permissions, then change it so it matches the SAME PERMISSIONS in SYSTEM/APP, then once you have the permissions correct long press on it and move it into SYSTEM/APP and hit PASTE. them REBOOT the phone and it will be in there and working. NO NEED to try flashing it in cwm. This MAY sound like a lot of work but it is VERY EASY AND FOOL PROOF.

OI File Manager. Looks almost exactly like my files.
Ok rockratt...first of all...when i tried putting the file in system...
It said failed, and also what do you mean to fix the permisions?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
It failed because you need to mount that partition r/w instead of the default r/o...should be an option for that on the root file explorer you used.

As studacris said make sure to set it to read/write. When using ROOT EXPLORER you will see a button towards the top the probably says MOUNT R/W click on it and then paste it to SYSTEM( the reason I say to paste it to SYSTEM first so you can change the apparently permissions before moving it into SYSTEM/APP since it will ask to overwrite a version of itself if it is already there. To change the permissions just long press, choose permissions, then click the appropriate boxes to make it have the correct permissions before placing it in.

Pasting to /system and Changing permissions shouldn't be needed.
And if it is..boot into recovery, go to advanced, and fix permissions
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has tried and tested the removal of bloatware apps from their Razr I XT890 running 4.12?
I'd be interested in cleaning the phone up a bit just to make it less crowded, I like to use real calc instead of stock calculator, go sms instead of stock messaging, zeam launcher instead of stock launcher etc etc.
I'm quite a novice when it comes to the technical side of things so would be too afraid to start deleting system apps incase they messed something up.
If anyone has seen a list compiled and could share, that would be great. Also, would it be Razr I specific, or would a general 4.12 safe removal list be safe to follow?
Any feedback appreciated

I think that for you would be easier use Titanium Backup or SystemAppRemover (need root acces) to remove apps.
If you want use the zip file you have to unlock bootloader and flash CWM. In CWM you can install zip files. # you must put in front of the line where is written desired app. Updater-script you can fing in the zip file /META-INF/com/google/android/
Thanks again, I actually have my phone rooted and was able to apply the debloater, however I don't want to remove everything so will restore the backup I took before trying it, I tried install the zip file with the edited script (with the # in front of the ones I wanted to keep) but it failed to install via recovery so I must be doing it wrong
I extracted the script file, opened with wordpad, edited, closed and saved, put it uncompressed back into the zip and tried it.
that failed, so I tried open directly from the zip, edit, close and save and flash that too but that failed too the original unedited one doesn't fail.
The error I get is something referring to error in zip file.

Do not use WordPad. Edify scripts require line endings to be linux style (LF only). Wordpad converts them to windows style (CR LF). Use another editor; I recommend notepad2-mod (set syntax highlighting, F12, to shell script)
See I edited and saved in wordpad and wasn't prompted to save in any other format, do you think it still saved in CR LF?
In the same script and another edit, I think I pasted something from somewhere else and went to save, but then it prompted me to save in the wordpad format itself (rtf I think it was) which I didn't, when I simply added a # or two, it just prompted to save without asking for format so it appeared to save as it was and not change anything? So you reckon it still changed it to the non-readable CRLF?
Would basic windows notepad be ok to edit it instead of having to download notepad 2?
Thanks for tyour help so far!
Maybe I'd be better just doing this via root explorer, of which I have some experience of. Is it just a case of locating each of the files listed in the script and deleting them or is there other hidden crap elsewhere that the script gets rid of which a simple root explorer delete won't?

Until officially fixed:
Open the newest version, like lineage-15.1-20180313_142801-UNOFFICIAL-gts210velte.zip
Go to: \META-INF\com\google\android\ and there extract updater-script
Open with Notepad++. Starting on line 2 you can see all supported loaders. Modify one of them to yours. Save and move back to the zip file overwriting the current file.
DONE.
