Hi All
I hope I havent posted this in the wrong forum.
If I have then please advise me which is the corect forum.
I just took over a second hand chinese android phone which appears to have swap enabled already.
The following is on the phone with SD card installed or removed completely
Terminal Emulator - Free - swap 196604 53036 143568
Diskinfo reports it as zram0 [swap]
The value of swap changes continually, so swap is active.
There is no swapper or any other swap app installed.
How do I go about finding out how the phone is configured and if necessary undoing what was done and reconfiguring if necessary ?
Thanks in advance.
Pull up ur firmware that someone or maybe me can look in it.

Hello everyone
I have a problem... I got a Sony Tablet S as permanent test device from Sony Austria. But I live in Germany. Now it seems that these sony services VideoUnlimited and Plantation store aren't available in Austria and Android Market seems to check only an internal regional code because of missing sim card. So how can I change region of my tablet (already rooted) to get these apps officially with instant updates?
Changing build.prop didn't work because I already copied one of an German identical model onto mine.

I think its possible with the prop file. because when I had my play I used to change it to get games from Japan store

Editing the build.prop should have worked. Are you pulling the build.prop to your computer and editing it in Notepad++, then pushing it back via adb or droid explorer? Or, are you mounting /system as rw, then chmod 666 the build.prop via terminal emulator, then using script manager, edit the proper values directly on the device, saving and rebooting? If one of those isn't the method you used, then try one of those 2 and report back.
I tried editing it and I copied a complete build.prop from another Tablet S from Germany.... It didn't work

Yes sir I did All I wanted to say was that its possible with he prop file, because you have said that you tired and failed.
backup!
I have a sony tablet s. I want to know how to backup such that even if I mess with the system I can revert to the old state. If you mean backup the system files just in case, I can understand but I have been unable to find a way to make a complete restore backup so just wanted to ask.

Hi
I´ve got a special Request. My new PC broked yesterday and with the old one i can´t do this things. Please help me, I need it until tommorow evening.
This is what I need:
Please decompile this APK: DOWNLOAD
This is the Messaging App of XPERIA S ICS.
Here are the Framework-Files : DOWNLOAD
Then, please delete the strings.xml in res/values-de and past this one: DOWNLOAD
Then recompile it and give it to me.
If it works on my phone, you will get a Thanks for every post you make in this theard and a CODE FOR 2GB FREE DROPBOX SPACE
Please Help me!:highfive:
Thank You
PS: You dont believe you will get the Dropbox Code? Look Here. I´ve one Code left. Sorry that this page is german, but you can use Google Translate.:highfive:
I forgot something:

Normal, i love doing these things, but now i cant. So i thought this is a idea. xD

Not sure if it's just the message app you want or the whole lot???
You only should delete the old strings and past the new. Thats all. And it must work
Gesendet von meinem LT18i mit Tapatalk 2
Give this one a go, first time ever trying to decompile and recompile an apk - its took me hours to get this far. Its up and running on my stock lt18i, let me know!
Hey, this is a good start!
But you havent changed the strings.xml in values-de.
Why do i know that?
In Real Messaging is Nachrichten in German. But Sony forgot it and now is between all German words the word Messaging. Then I changed all Messaging in strings.xml to Nachrichten, but it seems, you forgot it, because it`s still Messaging. But its good that you got the Compiler to work, on my old PC there was always an Error. But Thank You for your try, you got a Thanks. But when its Nachrichten, you will get the Dropbox Space.
Gesendet von meinem LT18i mit Tapatalk 2
Hmmm I've still got the decompiled version, I've just compared your strings.xml to the one in there and they are the same. I'm going to make some modifications to the english version see if its changing in there.
In my german version, every Messaging is Nachrichten. Sony also wrote in the german version messaging.
So plese use my strings.xml! delete the one in values-de, and past my one please
Gesendet von meinem LT18i mit Tapatalk 2
Sorry, there was a mistake in my last post. Not in the german version, in my german version you can download in the OP
Gesendet von meinem LT18i mit Tapatalk 2
Yes, I'm saying their already replaced. Well looks like its not compiling correctly - I've just tried editing the english values and no changes, trying to sort it out now.
Thank you, you can use search function in notepad++

would you mind uploading systemui.apk?
I tried getting it from the XPS system dump however it seems to be corrupt.
I will do it soon.

Here you go, but you have to deodex it yourself, i am not able to do this.
DOWNLOAD
I'm going to give up on this sorry, to deodex and go through all the loops I require the full xperia s ics "system" which unfortunately I'm struggling to extract correctly - I'm still going to try for my own personal projects if I manage to do it ill pm you.
Dear All,
I have installed many applications on my Galaxy Grand duos, with binding the applications data to External SD card (32gb), what will be the best practice to backup all the application and the data before installing another firmware? please note that I don't have enough space on internal sdcard to unbind the application data.
thanks alot in advance for your help!

I know this question has been asked quite a while, but just in case if someone still has the same problem, installing busybox through magisk module should do the trick.
Same problem but mine goes to vendor/bin
2014 Hello community, I'd like to help for a project with the older sister of your tablet, version 2014, with root permissions if someone could upload the "Sec Launcher2" from his tablet (with odex, if possible), and see if I change to use galaxy note 10.1 in 2012 ...
Also if you can upload the original application of the camera, it would also be very helpful.
Honestly, if you have applications on your system, which they believe can serve to version 2012 (with a little help from developers), I ask the favor of uploading, as a small contribution to his older sister and as a tablet helps developers ....
Please specify that the removed system folder (priv-app or app)
Thank you very much XD
Greetings.

Here you go. Thought I would attach some more files.
But it mignt be better if you download a rom and extract all your files from there incase you need some more libs or permissions. Good Luck!
