I understand there to put the tweaks on the last line of the file, which is not clear to me is if I have to add:
- Data tweaks
- Saves power
- System tweaks
in each of the lines for each of the tweaks according to their use or only writes:
ro.ril.hsxpa = 1
ro.ril.gprsclass = 10
ro.ril.hep = 1
ro.ril.enable.dtm = 0 ..........................
...................
......................etc
excuse my English, I hope your answer thanks

It's compatible with ROMs that use kernels which support build.prop tweaks, like ketut's CF-Root.

I rarely have to use wifi. If I change the values for the wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=540, that would be alright, right? I'm assuming those values are in seconds?

ONE MORE:
I see options that aren't in my build.prop (I'm using JAF's Cyanogen). Would appending these options cause the same results?

debug.sf.hw = 1 is quite common, you need it for CRT-off-animation and it also makes animations smoother. it has been recommend a lot of times, if devices got laggy and/or hot, noone would use it.

I think we used to comment(ignore) the line for CRT animation.. Not set its value to 1..

Well about the line debug.sf.hw=1, i experience laggy animations and unable to activate crt animation on samsung roms and customroms base on it.
In cm7 the laggy animation caused by the line is negligible as the lag will only be noticed in some animations. The crt animation still works.

You just confused build.prop with init.d my friend.
Every rom has build.prop.
And for GPU rendering it's only for devices with good GPU and definitely not the ace. Which is why we commented out the line in old stock gingerbread roms.

[Guide]Build.prop Wiki

Alright great S3 users!
I´m back again with a little tutorial about build.prop file on our beloved S3. Couldn't find something useful in here, so I decided to start this thread.
So before I start just one thing. It took me many hours to get all the information and as you can see there are still some points missing. So if you got some information about them, please pm me and for sure I put you on the credit list! If you try to mod the build.prop, please back it up first and make a nandroid backup in case something went wrong. Also don´t do anything unless you have a clue about it! Please hit thanks if you think the information in here are useful! And I´m glade for any feedback and suggestion from you guys! I´m not responsible for any damage you phone get when you messing around with this values!
Credits:
To Vegeta1, for give me a first start and his great support!
To Omega Rom Team, for their great support and being like a second family!
1. You will find the build.prop file in root path/System. You can open it with a build.prop editor from Play store or open it for example with the build in text editor in an app like root explorer.
2. For what you need a build.prop? Here´s a good explanation from TheManii: Build.prop is what holds the majority of the runtime flags that are used when android boots, think of it as being similar to config.sys on dos or environment variables in various OS's. It only holds variables, it cant run any scripts on it's own. Whatever is placed inside depends on android itself to pay attention to the flag and actually use it.
3. Let´s get started
# begin build properties
# autogenerated by buildinfo.sh
Version Number of 4.1.2
ro.build.id=JZO54K
Current Rom version on Phone: by editing this value, you will change what are standing in Settings/About Phone/Buildnumber. For Example you can change it to Omega by Indie or what ever you like.
ro.build.display.id=Omega v34 - XXELKC
Your current Modem version
ro.build.version.incremental=I9300XXELKC
Current sdk version of Framework plus Codename
ro.build.version.sdk=16
ro.build.version.codename=REL
Android Version on Phone
ro.build.version.release=4.1.2
Current Kernel version
ro.build.date=Fri Nov 30 17:54:15 KST 2012
ro.build.date.utc=1354265655
ro.build.type=user
ro.build.user=se.infra
ro.build.host=SEP-101
This means its a official release
ro.build.tags=release-keys
Model Number plus Manufacturer
ro.product.model=GT-I9300
ro.product.brand=samsung
Name
ro.product.name=m0xx
Device
ro.product.device=m0
The phone’s board is listed as “smdk4x12,” which means it will most likely use Exynos 4212 or 4412 supporting a maximum clock speed of 1.4GHz.
ro.product.board=smdk4x12
System Images
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
ro.product_ship=true
Nothing to say
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
Current default Country settings. If you change that line for example to ro.product.locale.language=de and ro.product.locale.region=De, the phone will set to German after a factory reset
ro.product.locale.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=GB
If you not able to connect to your wifi, you can try to set here the same number of channels as your router currently got. For example: Your router is set to 14 channels you can paste the same number in here.
ro.wifi.channels=
Nothing interest on the next few points. Most are explained above.
ro.board.platform=exynos4
# ro.build.product is obsolete; use ro.product.device
ro.build.product=m0
# Do not try to parse ro.build.description or .fingerprint
ro.build.description=m0xx-user 4.1.2 JZO54K I9300XXELKC release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/m0xx/m0:4.1.2/JZO54K/I9300XXELKC:user/release-keys
ro.build.characteristics=default
# Samsung Specific Properties
ro.build.PDA=I9300XXELKC
ro.build.hidden_ver=I9300XXELKC
ro.build.changelist=566833
# end build properties
#
# system.prop for smdk4x12
#
Ril Specific: Here some from aosp to that: RIL daemon reads rild.lib path and rild.libargs system properties to determine the Vendor RIL library to use and any initialization arguments to provide to the Vendor RIL
rild.libpath=/system/lib/libsec-ril.so
rild.libargs=-d /dev/ttyS0
Here you can set the Pixel per inch. The smaller you set it the smaller apps, icons and fonts will be. But be careful if you set it to low apps can crash! Also you can´t set it higher than the default value!
ro.sf.lcd_density=320
Minimum brightness of your screen
ro.lcd_min_brightness=20
This point is about rooting. It´s setting if the device running on the emulator or running in secure mode
ro.kernel.qemu=0
This point speak for itself
ro.tvout.enable=true
Maybe someone can light me up on that point.
persist.sys.storage_preload=1
Same here
net.streaming.rtsp.uaprof=http://wap.samsungmobile.com/uaprof/
# Multimedia property for Smart View
media.enable-commonsource=true
#
# ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES
#
Support for OpenGl 2.0
ro.opengles.version=131072
System property used to enable or disable dirty regions invalidation.
debug.hwui.render_dirty_regions=false
Same as above, setting the pixel per inch
ro.sf.lcd_density=320
System property defining default error report receiver
ro.error.receiver.default=com.samsung.receiver.error
This controls the smallest amount of memory given to a single application.
dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=8m
The dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit property limits how large an Android application’s heap can get.
dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=64m
The dalvik.vm.heapsize property defines an absolute maximum for the heap size for an application.
dalvik.vm.heapsize=128m
No clue about the next three points. Help is appreciated.
ro.hdcp2.rx=tz
ro.secwvk=220
ro.sec.fle.encryption=true
Here you can set the standard media sounds for each notification. But they got to match with the one in system/media/audio/...
ro.config.ringtone=S_Over_the_horizon.ogg
ro.config.notification_sound=S_Whistle.ogg
ro.config.alarm_alert=Walk_in_the_forest.ogg
ro.config.media_sound=Media_preview_Touch_the_light.ogg
That means your phone is still usable, even you got no Sim card in it.
keyguard.no_require_sim=true
Format of date
ro.com.android.dateformat=MM-dd-yyyy
Setting this value from unknown to wifi-only can fix some stand by issues.
ro.carrier=unknown
Needed for Play store. Some guys modded it to pay with her Phone bill, but i don't know if that still works.
ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung
Defines weither to use UMTS (0), HSPDA/UMTS(1), or HSDPA/HSPUA(2) respectively.Here you can improve your Data speed if your provider supports it. Set this to 0 if you want lower speeds, and up to 2 for faster speeds.
ro.ril.hsxpa=1
Defines what class speeds to use with EDGE. Setting this value to 12 can improve the data speed significant on lower connections.
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
Value for adb. Is a pipe connection in the adb client.
ro.adb.qemud=1
No clue. Maybe someone can light me up.
ro.com.google.apphider=off
Google Mobile Service Version with build number
ro.com.google.gmsversion=4.1_r3
Basically you control the class-loading and dalvik-vm there. Here you can set different values. v=a means verify all, v=f means verify full, o=v means optimize verify, u=n means do not optimize for unprocessor and m=y means register maps yes
dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=m=y
Bluetooth name of the device
net.bt.name=Android
The dalvik.vm.stack-trace-file property allows you to specify the name of the file where the thread stack traces will be written.
dalvik.vm.stack-trace-file=/data/anr/traces.txt
This point stands for "Debug SurfaceFlinger Hardware" or GPU hardware acceleration
debug.sf.hw=1
Video Acceleration
video.accelerate.hw=1
Increase the touch responsive of the screen
debug.performance.tuning=1
Disable sending usage data
ro.config.nocheckin=1
Increase the quality of JPEG pics
ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100
increasing the recording quality of Pics and videos
ro.media.dec.jpeg.memcap=8000000
ro.media.enc.hprof.vid.bps=8000000
Here you can set the delay of time your phone starts to ring when you recieve a call. 0=disabled
ro.telephony.call_ring.delay=0
This point set the delay after a call. This fix Black screen issues.
ro.lge.proximity.delay=15
mot.proximity.delay=15
Next two points should safe some battery if they are enabled but the problem is that they are not in source code elsewhere and should have no effect. This means that adding this value to your build.prop will have no effect at all. This parameter is a kernel parameter and will only work when passed directly to the kernel on boot.
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
pm.sleep_mode=1
Already explained
ro.config.nocheckin=1
For the last two points. These commands enable or disable the error profiler in the android. For most android users, there is no use in having error profiling . however , some applications might make use of this for generating error reports.
profiler.force_disable_err_rpt=1
profiler.force_disable_ulog=1

You're him? You sneaky devil! Lol
Maybe others knew or it was common knowledge ....but my wife's phone has just been running cm9 for months untouched, so I only peek at the i757m threads now and then to see how things are going.
In peoples opinions, is the newest build working well enough that I won't get hit with a frying pan cause I "messed up her phone"? LOL. Her words when I put cm10 on it quite awhile ago!

Re: [DADOES-ROM_cm10_4.1.2] [SGH-I757M only]
In my opinion its luck of the draw. My phone many features work without issue. For some others they are not satisfied. So it just random bad luck if it doesn't work. I lost my phone and was sent a replacement and on both phones strange's ROMs have been quite stable. I personally would call it a beta because there are still random reboots but I mostly don't get them except every 3 or four days. Not to sure right now as I just started with his most recent ROM!
His theme that is built in, is his personal preference so if your not a fan, just go to your play store and type in cm10 themes. You will find many free themes and donation versions as well. Then you can customize to your hearts content.
Strange is working for his personal self and is being kind to share his bug fixes with us so give him at least a thanks!

Allo!
I'll make amend and upload two new ROM!
what's new in it is:
the open source Superuser by, http://www.clockworkmod.com/
one ROM is with the stock icons, which means the same as the other but with the stock icons, stock keyboard and the apps that were remove are still not in it,
CMWallpapers.apk have been add again in the two ROM!
I'll upload them when I've got the chance!

awsome, came home from work to find a new thread for this ROM, glad to see, it is well deserved. im with tronith on the stability of these most recent builds. ive had nothing but good luck with the past 4 or so, with very minimal if zero random reboots (zero to speak of on the 030313 build, fingers crossed) and everything seems to be operational, although nearly everything i use is from the keyboard, sms, to the launcher and even gallery is not stock. but it all runs smooth with virtually no FC's or anything. point being, im happy with this for a fully functional daily driver and have been for a while. big thanks to strange!............yay a dedicated thread!:victory:

We'll, there are mostly bug fixes and improvements to the overall user interface. They call it butter because it's supposed to run as smooth as butter
Those are all sort of behind the scenes though. A noticeable difference world be the multi-user functionality. Just like your Windows computer, now you can have separate profiles with different settings.
There are also slight changes in the look of the interface, for example, the notification drawer no longer has toggle buttons, but rather a single button to access a whole bunch of toggles like Wi-Fi, sound, brightness and mobile data to name a few
I have it running on my i9000m and do notice a more smooth operation and am excited to have it for my I757M fire this reason (bug fixes are important too)

Pulled the v1.5 update.zip and digging through it. SmartQ is not a "Big name" in the U.S. but I have had good experience with them in the past with their v5 and v7. Contrary to some sources it is showing as 4.1/API-16 in the build.prop. I also noticed that a zRAM script is in the firmware as well. For those not familiar with IPX7 rating it's pretty much the same as IP67.
For 99USD this is a pretty sweet deal. Here's a French review which shows what appears to be gesture wake as well as proximity detection.

Be carefull ordering this watch from PandaMill. They are selling the watch, but do not have it in stock. So you pay for the item, but you will not know when it will be shipped.
I'm waiting for a confirmation mail from SmartQME.com if they have the watch in stock.
Pandamill is cheaper ($100-5$Coupon+5$DHLshipping - $105)
SmartQMe.com ($100 $20DHL or $6 Chinapost)

Ordered the black edition of the Smartq Z watch this morning.
They respond very fast to email requests an confirmed that they had the black in stock. 9Did not ask for the other colours)
Price: $100 + $6 shipping.
Pandamill were guessing that they would have the watch in stock in 1-2 weeks.
It's always good to have stock confirmed if webshops do not display stock quantities. (and even if they do, it's not always right)
Hope this helps.

Received shipping number from www.singpost.com through paypal mail stating that the watch has been shipped. (Statusupdate)
That's fast....

I have one of these, hopefully, arriving on Saturday.
So their latest update shows Android 4.1... instead of the 4.3 as advertised?

LOL....I am such a nerd, as soon as I saw the OP I clicked on the link and ordered one. $99 bucks is not bad if this watch functions well and will make it a full day one one charge. Can't wait to get it and try it out. My Sony SW2 is too boring.

I was just planning to order it, but wont to wait for some more opinions. Definitely is very versatile product for such price

KitKat update worth the headache?

Just hoping for some user experience on stock kitkat vs custom .
Currently using Free Xperia 302 based on CM 10 JB 4.3, I cant find a single thing wrong with this rom. It's very fast and stable, GPS, camera and netflix working great!
Should I update, is the os as smooth as JB 4.3 cm build? I would imagine it would not because it is not ASOP. But is it that different in speed?

I personally don't see much of an advantage and you're probably getting great or better performance already. I guess some points come to mind:
Pros
-Small Apps will return with stock
-I like the Sony UI
-I don't know if you've installed a compatible IR blaster with your custom rom but if not you'll get that functionality back with stock.
Cons
-SD card permission problem (but I guess you'll still root)
-Apparently there is a battery drain issue with Google Play Services on 4.4 (and opting out of interest based ads in the settings is supposed to help)

Thanks, I'm not upgrading. Cheers!

All hardware works; GPS, Camera, etc. Netflix too. I uninstalled DSP manager and replaced with Viper4android. So awesome!! KitKat 4.4.3; it is so buttery smooth and stable; no crashes of FC.I recommend everyone at least try this build; its money! I'm so glad I didn't upgrade to official Sony Kitkat ROM and that I saw you post. Definitely will be sending a donation tithes guys for doing such a good job. This will be my new rail driver.
Omni awesome!

The WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE-permission must only grant write access to the primary external storage on a device. Apps must not be allowed to write to secondary external storage devices, except in their package-specific directories as allowed by synthesized permissions. Restricting writes in this way ensures the system can clean up files when applications are uninstalled.

Well, you see, this is just one of the BIG KK-Disadvantage.
So Upgrading to KitKat is a QuiteVERY BIG AND BAD DISASTER! A horribly bad mistake that many people (incl. my self) trap into!
If you install CameraMX for example, make videos and photo-recordings etc. then let's see what will happen, if you deinstall/uninstall it...!
Android 4.3.1/Lower: All Recordings will stay. Only the app itself is deleted. Even on the External Storage you'll keep them all.
But since 4.4.0, your recordings will all be erased forever.
Thank you Microsoft to introdûce MTP just for Zune Player. A good alternative to Mass-Storage. No access to File System=Inrecoverible!
And if your BootLoader is Locked, the „Factory_Data-Reset“ will WIPE, SAFE DELETE OFF ALL FILES so that the recoverage-chance would be absuloutelý dead!
But: If MTP would not be there, maybe GooGLE would have made something even worse!
Google has done every version very well. But since KitKat, theý, the Programmers and Android-Enginierrs did actually ruin it all!
Well done, Google! Good JOB!
Top 4 Worst KitKat-Versions:
#3 - 4.4.0
#4 - 4.4.1
#1 - 4.4.4
#2 - 4.4.3
#0 = Android 4.4.2 KitKat

Some another KitKat-Problems:
>WiFi not stamina (Only for 4.4.2)
>Battery-problems because of task „Android·OS“ - Only 4.4(.0) and 4.4.2!
>64% of all 4.4.2 users have battery-problems with Skýpe. Google recommends you to UN - INSTALL!!! ! ! - Have i got to give a comment about Googles recommendation??? ? ?-Well..., i don't think so. So what...?
>And many other problems. If you want to know more, then ask me.
If you haven't got a XDA-Forum Account but you want to know...
Well, then just NOT UPGRADE, if you don't want to take any risk!
>New Accent-Colour (betonungsfarbe) of the Status-Bar.
>WiFi and Network-Status ↑↓ is not shown up anymore „to avoid battery and useless CPU-Usage. “
AnD THE WORST:
More and More phones START WITH KshITKAT!
The first KK-Statrer was the Nexus 5. Well, it's a Google-Phone, so it's got the newer „better“ version!
And ALL S5 Variants too! (S5 +S5Mini+Active+Sport+all others.... like LTE-A)
All new HTC One, luckily not the MAX.
Sony Xperia: Z2 and Z2 Tablet, Z3, Z3 Compact and the Z3-Tablet·ComPact!
Galaxy Tab S, Note Pro, Tab 4.
And many others too.....
Did you think that you see all the others by pressing the button (eine Schaltfläche) you'll see all other ones? Probably yes...!
Best JB-Phone: Samsung Galaxcy Note 3 - Only Upgrade to the newwest BaseBand-Version of Jelly Bean! The Galaxy Note 3 is the World's best JellyBean-Phone
A Question:
What is actually the newest baseband-version with Jelly Bean on the Note 3?
Higest-Resoulotion Jelly Bean Phone: Oppo Find 7 not 7a! - It's got a 1440p-QHD Screen - 4x Galaxy S3 Res! 2560x1440=1440p/1280x720=720p (Galaxy S3,
S5 Mini, Xperia Compacts, Htc 1 Minis(both) etc.

I personally don't see much of an advantage and you're probably getting great or better performance already. I guess some points come to mind:
Pros
-Small Apps will return with stock
-I like the Sony UI
-I don't know if you've installed a compatible IR blaster with your custom rom but if not you'll get that functionality back with stock.
Cons
-SD card permission problem (but I guess you'll still root)
-Apparently there is a battery drain issue with Google Play Services on 4.4 (and opting out of interest based ads in the settings is supposed to help)

Well... Google knows about this battery problem but they don't want to tell us, what causes that bug... what did cause this bug? Well, Google does not want to tell us that, about the Android-Code and so on... but well..... 4.4.3 fixes this.!

yep, but 4.4.4 is a pretty good one, especially if fine-tuned a bit.

The Note 4 has 4.4.4
But i hate 4.4.2
4.4.4 is still much better than 4.4.2.

We should be getting 5.0.2 this month or early next month, which should bring some worthwhile changes to the table.
