[Q] build prop tweaks - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Quick question, since I am new at this.. Do I need to key in characters ( '*' , '#' , etc) before each line? Or should I just copy the text into the last lines of build prop?

/*, // or # afaik for remark from programmer, just for information.
You copy with remark doesnt hurt your phone, but slight bigger file

If the line contains any such characters at the beginning, the phone doesn't read that line.
So do not include any remarks.

# is only supported in build.prop
# is used to comment on a line/not activate a line's code

Rolling in the deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

Thanks guys for your answers to my question. I really hope it is working. I've already pasted the lines from build prop tweaks from development page. And I think my phone is slicker. I am slowly trying to inch in on going deeper into the modding of my ace. Though I am unsure most of the times. You guys just keep me motivated in doing so. Keep up the good work that you have done and are about to do!!!

Does somebody know how to revise titan's ROM date?

That somebody said is to revise NK.exe, but I do not find the date mark in the NK.exe,for instance,revising from 06/24 to 08/01

			
				
the ONLY reason you would want to revise a date is to try an fake someone out, showing it to them and saying that you have a newer rom version...what's the point in that? why update the date when nothing is really being changed? pointless.
I do a new rom for myself,so I want to change it

it is in nk.exe but as "Feb__8 2007" or "Mar 21 2008" etc (replace _ with spacebar, xda replaces multiple spaces in my post with a single space - note the extra space "feb__8" not "feb_8")
search nk for "feb" or "jun" or something and you will find it, right before the date is sometihng like jan%feb%mar%apr%may%jun%etc etc

how i can support arabic language in Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1

please, how i can support arabic language in Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1 (rhod100)??

It's been asked before, this is the answer. However, this is for native Android devices, and I'm not sure anyone figured out how to get it working on our port. I never did figure it out, but I'm far from an expert on this stuff.
Here's how it worked for me: (Originally provided here)
1 - Download the "libskia.rar" attached to this post.
2 - You will need the latest version of a program called "Root Explorer" (tested with 2.17.1). Download and install it on your device, and don't forget to give it superuser permissions when you run it for the first time.
3 - Extract the "libskia.so" file from the package, and copy it to the "system/lib" folder on your device using Root Explorer. Use the "mount r/w" button to give the program permission to overwrite the file.
4 - Android should restart itself automatically when you copy the file. If it doesn't, restart Android manually. Your device now shows Arabic letters correctly.
The only problem with this method is that it doesn't solve the RTL text direction problem, but it is indeed a very acceptable solution that enables you to use Android for daily use.
Try it and tell us what happens. It worked for me using FRX07.1.
Oh, and arrrghhh, thank you for your devotion and efforts to bring Android to the Tilt2. Why don't you mention this method in the FAQ so that it could be found more easily by FRX07 users? And best of luck with the GBX01 effort!

np, and glad someone made an easy guide.
Can you make one change? Can you actually attach the files instead of linking to another site? Thanks.
I will consider adding it to the FAQ, but honestly this question has only been asked maybe 2-3x in the 2 years I've been involved in this project... not a very 'frequently' asked question is my point .
Sorry for reviving a dead thread but I just wanted to know is XDAndroid deodexed or odexed, I have searched and at a guess I would say it is deodexed but I haven't found anything that gives me certainty so if anyone could answer I would be grateful.
Thanks in advanced
Just before anyone says what does this have to do with Arabic I have found this site (http://blog.devasque.com/) that seems to have a method that works across the board so I just wanted to give it a try. I will post my results
Also the method posted above is ok but it seemed to mess up my English documents.

It's AOSP... so I guess odexed? I honestly have no clue.
Arrrghhh, as you weren’t sure I thought I’d give it a go any way and after a lot of testing I found that it works so I’m guessing the rom is deodexed.
My findings, the latest patch to work on both the GB0C and FRX07.1 builds is 0.789 anything after that seems to cause either boot loops or freezes.
Also it seems to work very well with both the direction being correct and the letter displaying correctly joined.
So if anyone wants Arabic this seems like a good option, all you have to do is:
Download the 0.789 patch from http://blog.devasque.com/how-to-apply-patch/ and extract it.
Then copy the framework.jar file from the system/framework folder on your phone to the framework folder in the patch folder, after that run command.exe and follow the instructions. After it finishes you will find a new framework.jar in the generated folder just replace your old file with the new one and reboot and hopefully you should see all the Arabic and like fonts displayed correctly.
There are instructions on the site but they are for the newest patches, the instructions I have posted are from what I did with this older version they are very similar just some minor folder name changes and less files to be converted.
Just like to say all the credit goes to Madmack and the people that have worked with him.
Cool, I'm sure that will help some people

[Q] I want to know how to change the system camera apk of the GS3.

Greetings!
Well, is how the title says. I want to start making my own systems apps. For instance, I want to start developing a camera apk for my GS3 but the problem is that I don't know how to do it. I don't know how to open those internals files like xml files(they do not open correctly with a note app), .rsa files, .mf files, .sf files, .dex files, .arsc files and the list continues. How to compile and discompile apks or flashable files...
All of this is because I want to star my own proyect, and through this way, to enter the android developing community of the GS3!
If anyone could help me to accomplish this I would be VERY grateful! If theres a guide (I tried to look for one but my research did not throw any result) that would be better!
Hope you could understand me because English is not my main language, but hey, I'm learning
Thank You SO MUCH for YOUR TIME!
Personally I think you should start to learn the programming and code from your toaster, but hey - if you want to damage your S3 - it is your free will (I hope)
OK, let's go to the matter, first. Assessing your coding skills based on your questions, I decided that you should start your learning from this.
Furthermore, to be more presice against your questions, if you would become literate expert in above linked knowledge, feel free to use
this as a small sample.
If it made you curious, why not try for even more interesting news?

[Q] How porting Android?

Hi all!
I do many projects with programming. I would move Android on Samsung Omnia or on other device. I downloaded CM 7 on Samsung Galaxy Ace. I know how change resolution and other things in build.prop. I know that I must rewrite drivers, but I would only start of Android. So how I have set cpu and others things need to start of Android?

You can do a lot of search regarding this topic under google.
The density can be change by modifying "ro.sf.lcd_density=??" at build.prop.

No need to get rude and start saying any idiot can do this or that...
It's hard to understand what your saying or asking...and English probably isn't your first language...if you don't mind could you tell us your native language...that way maybe someone who speaks it can better help you if they happen to come across this page
Also it helps to know a little more what you want to do...
Your asking for help but you claim you know how to modify android...that's where I'm confused, I just don't know what your asking for
