Hello
I want to ask, how to edit build.prop with the flashable zip?
I think it's complicated to do manual edit in build.prop
I hope there is someone that can teach me the method step by step
Thanks before ^^
Do you want to edit build.prop file in a rom of zip format
If yes then
Extract the zip first
Go to system/build.prop
Long press on it in
A dialogue box will apperar select open in text editor .
Or if you want to edit build.prop of ur current rom then
Use root explorer.
PM me if u need help

Sorry for this total noob question, but how do you edit the sym.txt file in /Windows? I want to change order of the symbols, but I can not save the file since it is part of the rom. Is the only way around this to edit the rom and reflash my device?
There is no need to edit the ROM. Click the following link to find out how to do it: Windows mobile team blog/ Input tips and tricks
Sorry for noob question..
what's the best way to edit a build prob in a rom before you install it? plus would the zip then need to be resigned in anyway before you could install it?
any help much appreciated, cheers
open zip, copy the file, open with wordpad, edit, paste into zip
thanks. does that then need to be signed to load properly without sending into bootloop?
u only need a rooted phone and a file manager with root(superuser) accesss. edit the file as a normal text file. be careful while u do it though. u can brick ur device if u arent!

systemUI .. i dont know much about, so took this infos from here
Part 1 Theming Android:
First you need the following Tools for this:
-7zip
-A Windows PC
Step 1) Go to your rom you like to Theme and grab you Systemui.apk From system/app Copy it to your desktop!
Step 2) Now open the file with 7zip by right clicking on the file and choose open with 7zip
Step 3) When you are in the Systemui.apk with 7zip go to the Res folder and open up Drawable-hdpi Depending on your phone it could be also Drawable-ldpi or Drawable-mdpi Or Drawable-xhdpi Now just open that folder!
Step 4) when you are in that folder you see a lot of .png files that are all the files you could theme now If you want to theme your Systemui.apk to ICS/JB/GB/Froyo etc... source for the systemui.apk from a phone who is running on that OS!
Step 5) When you have found that systemui.apk from the other OS Then open that Systemui.apk also with 7zip and go to the res folder and than to Drawable-hdpi!
Step 6) when you have bot systemui.apk's opend source for the .png's you want to theme for example you want to theme the wifi signal icon Source in YOUR SYSTEMUI.APK FROM YOUR PHONE to stat_sys_wifi_signal
then also find the excactly same .png in the other Systemui.apk from that other OS and start copying the Files!
NOTE: Please Check the names if they are the same otherwise the systemui will Force Close (Crash)
Step 7) Now when your done copying and theming Close The file and put it back in your rom Flash your rom congratulations you have themed Now your Android Rom!
build.prob is only a small textfile, edditing it via an txt editor is quite simple..
another solution for your customer rom making could be:
StudioAndroid a suit for modding android roms, and apps and so on. it is easy to use and does almost everything you want
or
Rom Maker , less features, a small simply to use version, alsowith build.prob edit.
build.prob tweaks can befoud here:

.. or look at some zweaking scripts, something like that
have fun, and dont forget to thank :good:

Okay. But if you try to edit it again, make sure the settings doesn't make it unstable.

"build.prop editor" app has overwritten my /system/build.prop, and now there is just a single line in it, the one which i wanted to add to my existing build.prop. instead "build.prop editor" replaced my entire build.prop. lesson learnt!
my device (Archos 70b Cobalt) is not booting up completely. i can get to the stock recovery.. i need the stock build.prop, and i don't have a backup!! can anyone post theirs please urgent? thx
can i push build.prop to /system via recovery? i want to know how to create update.zip (containing /system/build.prop) which i can push via stock recovery.. or any other alternative methods please. thx
