Hello together!
After installing WM6 I tried to setup the magnetic Ameo-keyboard for using the special german "umlaute" (ä,ö,ü etc.): I patched the ROM file sym.0409.txt to have quicker access to these chars,
but after rebooting I cant access those chars any longer
Maybe I stored the patched file in a wrong format... so:
Question:
I need the original - not patched - file for replacing my patched one.
Is there anybody who can help me and send me the file (\windows\sym.0409.txt of the wm6-OS)?
Thanks for any help in advance!
Help! what file extension do I use to read the cwm file to root my phone? Im thinking its that that cause it wont finish rooting and I dont have the correct program to read it. can anyone please help me with this
Hi, I flashed stock I9100G 4.1.2 firmware and rooted it. Now I want to dump /system folder's files to my PC. I used adb pull /system system/ but it says "skipping special files" and doesn't copy lots of files. I realized that there are many 0.00 byte files in /system directories, also other root directories (look attachment picture to see them).
How to fix this? I'd appreciate to hear your solutions.
Thanks.
**Bump**
Need help...
I have a fully functional zte nubia z5s mini ( except from wifi and bt) rooted, english CWM, latest MIUI. Formatting /persist partition before installing MIUI caused the issue, there is a relevant thread explaining it all at bbs.nubia.cn/thread-112804-1-1.html (understood it using google translate).
To fix it I just need some files that were in that partition (nothing special, can be viewed with any root explorer) and get them back. Re-flashing any ROM wont do the job because that's the essence of the specific partition, to contain some files that wont be replaced by flashing a rom from recovery as I discovered by similar threads at xda for other phones.
The thing is that I cant download the files from nubia forum because to get the link I must register and registration does not work for me without any apparent reason.
Could someone make a copy of its own files ? There is nothing personal in there or phone specific / unique .. Net / BT drivers, and configuration files
As I said, nothing special needed, just copy all files / folders from /persist and make a zip .. I guess a backup from CWM would work also, never tired it (never needed to restore anything till now)
The issue is very annoying because apart from WiFi problem the phone is fully functional .. I know whats the problem, the files I need and the procedure (a simple copy) but after 3-4 days of searching have not been able to find the files ..
Could somebody please help by sending me its own files from /persist ?
Thanks in advance ..

instructions:
copy the content of archive (folder "\persist" from "persist_b_needEDIT.zip") to your "\persist"
and then:
1. string in file "\persist\property\MODEM_INTERNAL_VERSION" - change to installed ver. of ROM
(source http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=505708&st=740#entry26719716)
//at current example "NX403A_Z0_CN_XSYPK1HD11F016"
2. BT MAC is in HEX in file "\persist\.bt_nv.bin" -- IN REVERSE ORDER!!!
"F56C98" Prefix Vendor bytes -- IN REVERSE ORDER!!! - for example compare with WiFi "Intf0MacAddress=986CF5****8A"
"05****" NIC specific bytes -- IN REVERSE ORDER!!!
example content:
01000605E8B1F56C98
---- for BT MAC 986CF5B1E805
- just open file in any HEX editor & change content of file to desired (maybe random?) digits
3. Find in "RootExplorer" files "WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin" & "WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini" in folder /etc/wi-fi. Copy them to /persist
(source http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=505708&st=740#entry26719716)
4. change this string is file \persist\WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini
with your own MAC addresses from phone box (base - Intf0MacAddress)
( && Intf1/Intf2 - use the same digits as in Intf0MacAddress ):
( Intf3MacAddress & gAPMacAddr - maybe use ramdom digits?
((source http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=507466&st=1780#entry29593985)
<----...
# Each byte of MAC address is represented in Hex format as XX
Intf0MacAddress=986CF5****8A
Intf1MacAddress=986CF4****8A
Intf2MacAddress=986CF7****8A
Intf3MacAddress=000AF5****FC
...
# AP MAc addr
gAPMacAddr=000AF5****ab
...--->
5. change (if needed) permissions of files according to "permisiions_list" file

NX403A-PERSIST
I have been unable to find an answer after scouring the internet and XDA for answers,
I was trying to disable the primary mic (bottom) so that I was able to only use the secondary mic (top). This is/was possible by rerouting all references to Mic 1 with Mic 2 device in /system/etc/audio_device.xml. The problem is that I tampered a little bit further and broke the lot. Does anyone know how I can restore this file? If a complete re-flash of the system is required then would someone be able to provide a link to the stock firmware? I have not been able to find it.
Build: 36.0.A.100
OS: 6.0 (Marshmallow)
P.s - Yes, I should have created a 'proper' back-up of the partitions.
P.P.S - I have root access.
I found the solution via replacing the whole system partition with stock, heres how:
1) Download Flashtool (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746)
2) Use XperiFirm to find the correct stock firmware
3) Use Flashtool's SIN Editor (tools -> Sin Editor) to get an ext4 file of the system partition
4) If there's a single file that needs replacing then it can be read/copied from the ext4 by mounting the file.; as I was using a Windows machine I used Ext2Explore.
5) The file will be restored through flashing the stock system partition
This was shared for anyone else who needed it.
