Hi, first time poster here. I can usually find what I need, but I'm stumped here.
I'm running a rooted Galaxy S4 on ATT with the i337ucuamf3 build.
I've successfully installed viper4android, but it only works on and off, with Google Music.
I'm pretty sure the fix for this is to change the build.prop lines: Ipa.decode, tunnel.decode and Ipa.use-stagefright.
I've tried everything that I can think of, but I no matter how I make the changes, they will not save. I've tried mounting System R/W in Rom Toolbox, and booting into System R/W. I've made the changes with Rom Toolbox Pro and ES File Manager. Nothing works.
Can anybody tell me if I just can't make these changes to build.prop because of the build I'm running?
Please, any help would be appreciated. When viper does work, it's incredible!
Thanks.

Hello,
I was trying to edit the build prop file using the ES Explorer, but the same happened to me, I could edit the file by downloading the "build prop editor" from play store.
Edit the file by pressing the button in shape of a pencil and later press the save button. If you only search for the line you want to edit in the main screen of the app you will be able to modify the line but the changes are not saved.
Thanks/rate

Never mind.
ES File doesn't always save, you'll just have to try a different app. Root explorer should work or fx file manager.

Attached is a flashable zip with a patched services.jar that fixes the color fade bug, one of the memory leaks introduced in lollipop
This is not my work, I just asked for a favor from @mikeyinid and packed it into a flashable zip, so you need to go Thank him if you use this.
We are very grateful Mikey.

.Just so you understand what the patch actually does... It doesn't help with the aggressive killing of apps we all know about. What it does do is keep the device from becoming unstable over time. There is another memory leak caused from something regarding music playback, there isn't anything I can do about that right now

P.S this is the services from VN ROM but should be compatible with most other deodexed ROMs with the same base (hopefully)
you can also manually do it by pasting the services.jar from the zip into system/framework and setting permissions then rebooting.
You should always make a nandroid backup before flashing any system files
How to this without flashing in twrp. Im on ocv and rooted with 0x0 knox. You said to set permission, how do i do yhis. Ty

Which file explorer do you use ? I use AntTek . download this if you don't have an explorer with root capabilities.
Extract the services.jar to the root of your internal memory from the zip file attached .
Then navigate to Device /system/ and click the overflow menu. Go to remount partition and the select R/W.
Then go back to the services.jar that you extracted earlier, select it the hit copy . and copy to /system/framework/ .
Once that has completed. Navigate to /system/framework/services.jar . hold your finger on there for two seconds and release and a menu should come up , go to the bottom and select change permissions and select tick boxes as follows:
User / read + write
Group / read
Other / read
Click OK
Reboot
it's from deodexed Rom..?

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone has made a swipe sensitive wallpaper like the one on Xperia z5 for redmi 2? I've been searching the whole Internet and all I can find is the Xperia z2 wallpaper. I'm surprised no one has even made anything close to the Xperia live wallpapers, cos I really like the experience flow or cosmic flow wallpapers. The only ones I can find are wallpapers that sparkle on touch but they don't move when swiped(by "move when swiped" I don't mean scrolling wallpapers). I hope someone will bring the z5 wallpaper to other phones soon

@Newbdroidd So, first things first - Wallpapers dont need to be custom made for all devices. If you can fool the original apk into believing it's installed exactly 'where it should be', then it should be no problem getting it to work normally.
Now, the drill
Q1. Are you rooted, buddy?
If yes, Q2. Are you on Stock MIUI ROM, CM or which one?
If AOSP-based (CM/Bliss/AICP etc.), proceed further and follow these steps --
(You can try them on MIUI as well, I'm not sure if they'll work or corrupt your MIUI installation (So make sure to make a Recovery backup if doing this on stock ROM.) )
now the steps --
00. Download the file: http://d-h.st/zUJR
0. Inside you'll find the apk.
1. Try installing normally, then reboot. If it works, great,, and if doesn't proceed as below -
2. Install 'Root Explorer' from play store. Open it, grant root permission when asked, and then go to the folder '/system/priv-app/' .... create a folder named 'Experience Flow 2 Live Wallpaper' ... long press the folder, and set permissions as 'rwxr-xr-x' (0755).
3. Inside, copy paste that apk file from the link, rename it to 'Experience Flow 2 Live Wallpaper.apk' (as inside quotes, no changes) ... set permission to 'rw-r--r--' (0644) and reboot.
4. Try setting it as Live Wallpaper now. It should work.
5. DO make sure to revert here if it worked or not!
All the best!

Hi thanks for replying... I'm rooted and i'm using Temasek CM13 on my redmi 2. First i tried installing the apk normally but it says problem parsing the package. Then I followed all the steps you listed except that i used root browser instead of root explorer cos root explorer isn't free. Rebooted but it doesn't show up on the list of live wallpapers
OH waiit i forgot to rename the apk.. Trying again now hopefully it works
Renamed it but it still doesn't work D:
Shocking

Well... I've used both Kumajaya CM13 and am currently on Blisspop ROM CM13. I've used this method successfully on both these ROMs. I'm currently having it set as my wallpaper as well.
P.S: But I suppose the source of the file I've used in my case is different from this.
Okay, just wait till morning, I might be able to upload that file here if the internet speed favors me.
Then you just have to repeat the procedure with the new apk.
Please make sure to restore from the backup you created, or fully remove and uninstall the apk used earlier for this method to work.

Here's a vid of my phones folders just in case i did something wrong. How do u like the blisspop rom? I like res remix the best but it had a few bugs so i switch to my current one
Hello Guys
I Rooted My Device Yesterday And Everything Went Good Until I Noticed That The Privet Mode Faild To Open And I Have Many Personal Photos That I Want To Reach
P.s. : Im Using Stock MM Rom, Rooted By CF Root And Im Using Wanam Xposed Framework
So Any Ideas How To Fix This Problem Without Lossing What Inside The Private Mode ?
Thanks In Advance
i resolve u must 1 clear all with twrp (advanced clear)than install firmwere than cf auto root than twrp 3 0 2 2 than last BETA-SuperSU (with twrp) now work all
But Thats Exactly What I Did First When I Rooted My Device, What Will Be Changed If I Just Clear My Device Whenever I Root Again I Will Face The Same Problem
We Need A Solution For After Rooting
Thanks For Your Interest I Appreciate
If you need to recover the files I think the only thing you can do is go to your Nandroid backup, restore, copy the files out of the Private Mode folder and start again.
I Want My Files But Also I Want To Make It Work
I Dont Have Any Back Ups How To Do Recovery ?
Thanks In advance
You need to install a custom firmware on the phone for private mode to work i think. That's the only way i've made it work again.
I have superman kernel on my phone.

This may make Private Mode work again, but I don't think you will be able to access the files that were there before. I had this problem on my old Note 4. I lost my files and learnt a lesson, backup always before doing anything and when changing ROMs make sure you copy your files out of Private Mode first, sorry man
i formatted data in recovery (twrp 3Minit_recovery_3.0.2-2_G935F) and flashed CF-Auto-Root (hero2lte-hero2ltexx-smg935f) + no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip and private mode is working fine on stock rooted (& i also have xposed installed & running so it must be possible to make it work
So Guys There Is No Such A Zip File Make It Work Again Like An Extention Just Install It And Get It work Fine Because Its Annoying To Start Over Again
Is There A Backup App. Exactly Like LG Backup That Backing Up Everything In The Device With Just A Bottom ?
I Am Appreciate For Everyone Of You

Ohhhh sorry, i thought he was just wanting to make private mode work.
i just read OP well and yeah, sorry man you wont be able to get them back. I myself have lost lot of files in private mode because when i flashed i forgot to move them out of private mode and lost them.
You will need to ask for the pics again
So Now If I Install A Custom Kernel Would It Get To Work Again, If Yes Which One Should I Install And How ?

Hi all...
as I'm writing this, my MPM1 is on Stock ROM v334, rooted.
I notice that since few previous fw version at least, or maybe even since the first time the first MPM1 was out for sale, the sounds of the screen being locked and unlocked are still the same.
Is there a way to change them?
I mean it's not available now, and I know that this might be not easy either,..but since there are many experts on this xda forum, I wish that perhaps somebody could make a way/mod to do that?
That's all.
Apologize for my question that maybe is too noob.
Thank you verymuch.
I dont know exactly how to change the lock sounds but there is/should-be a way.
As your device stock-rooted, you can install Gravity box, so you can get wide range of customizations.

GravityBox requires xposed! ?
---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 AM ----------
For the OP -
There are magisk modules like 1. Twilight core, Pixel 2 audio and boot animation.
which can help you such kinda stuff systemlessly, so less of a hassle and more options to choose from.
Another way is -
Using any root enabled file explorer, all you have to do is go to /system/media/audio/ui
Copy the whole folder as a backup first and then specifically for your lock sound; either you can add lock.ogg & unlock.ogg
or replace them with any sound that you want
in the same .ogg format.
For lock and unlock.
Also first try copying into that by adding rather than replacing and see if you can change those sounds after a reboot.
Of it that doesn't work, then replace those files and reboot.
Similarly you can also add various other sounds in system/media/audio as per your needs for custom notifications, alarms etc.
Edit - the 2nd way would modify /system partition which might trip safetynet.

1. Do you mean "MidnightCore - twilight edition" module on magisk?
I tried to install that from magisk, but after install, reboot, nothing. Should be a new app icon on the homescreen, right?
But nothing. no icon. no nothing. Only on magisk it said that it has been installed, but nothing... seems like I did nothing.
So I uninstall the module from Magisk.
2. Then I tried the other method.
Using Root explorer I copy paste two .ogg sound files (renamed as lock.ogg and unlock.ogg) into that said folder after I renamed the original files. Then I changed the new files permissions into r-w-r-r (like the original files permission set). Then I rebooted the phone. Nothing hapenned. No Lock nor Unlock sound as I intended to. Infact I accidentally deleted and lost my two original files (the Asus' original lock.ogg and unlock.ogg files)...Would you send me that 2 original files please? I'll be really appreciate it.
Well I'd like to change them but if I failed, I prefer them than to have no sounds like now
3. Last try, I installed the XposedInstaller 3.1.5 apk in intention to try Gravity Box app module like Jaheen said above.
But then when I tried to install the Xposed framework, it said waiting for download...forever....so I lose my patient then I uninstalled the Xposed too.
Full of failed me this time

1. You have to use terminal commands.
Go to their support thread.
Link - https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-midnightcore-one-midnight-modules-t3762758
Download terminal app from playstore.
2. So umm.. I don't know why the new sounds don't work. Were they already in .ogg format?
I haven't done anything like changing the UI sounds so not sure, just added some sounds in ringtone and stuff. Sorry?. But mostly it's the same process.
3. You aren't able to download xposed framework from magisk??
Anyways don't bother because gravitybox can't change the lockscreen sounds.

1. I did check the thread. But I don't understand the thread Original post. The guide there is too few for a noob like me.
2. already ogg. I convert it from mp3 to ogg on online convert service by audio.online-convert.com probably their convert method is not good for task like this (?) I don't know. Will try it again more carefully with my pc and more proper convert software later when I'm home and see what the result will become.
3. okay I don't really have a good feeling using xposed either. it's good if I can avoid it.
anyway thank you for the replies and files. the 2 original sounds work again as usual now with files from you.
will report back here later.
