Modify the build.prop in its original original location itself and then save it & reboot, don't copy build.prop to other folder then modify it and then re-paste in it's original location you'll stuck with a bootloop, just modify it in it's original location. Btw next time before making a thread do make sure where should it belong this is a [Q] Question thread so should have been in QA, help & troubleshooting section, next time be sure to know where you have to make a new thread.
My apologies for the wrong section. I'm new sorry.
However, I forget to write that what you just suggested (modify it directly without make a copy) it's the first thing that I tried but with no success.
After I pressed the button save, Explorer app prompts an advise saying that an error occured and that the changes have not been applied.
And now? :crying:

In system > build.prop (original location) is the device mounted to R/W?
Hi,
First, this line "ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100" does nothing...
After that if you change the location of a file, when you move it again you need to set the correct permissions like the original files, other than that you can encounter a bootloop.
Like RuchRha said modifie the file directly, no need to move it...
And if I were you I'll make a Nandroid backup before playing with file system...
These are the file permissions that I see into the file properties.
rw- r-- r--
Is this what you was asking me?

If you can see an option of Mount R/W instead click on it and it should change/show you Mount R/O instead of showing mount R/W, when the time when system is not mounted to R/W and you try to edit buildprop and save it, it shows error n doesn't gets saved.

Nope,
Read Only system:
Read/Write:
You need to mount the system as R/W.
EDIT: too late...
To the best of my uderstanding the free version does not permit such kind of change.
Is there any free app that I can use?

After i upgrade my note 3 (sm-n900) to android 4.4 kitkat... my 360 camera app cant't save photo to extsdcard. is it just me? Or because of new kitkat update .help!
Have a look around, theres an issue with using extSD card, there is also a fix for it. - NOt sure if it'll fix saving pictures to SD Card but I don't have issues.

You posted the question in someone's else thread and I answered you there.
I'll post the same answer here.
1. Install es file manager or any file reader with root.
2. navigate to /System/etc/permissions
3. open "platform.xml" file to edit
4. look for the stack that has "WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
you will find something like <group gid="sdcard_r" />
5. make sure these lines are there, if not, add them
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
That's it
I was also unable to save my photos to the external SD because in the Camera360 settings, when I change the save location to "external sd" and the dialogue popped up for me to choose a folder in the external SD, no folders showed up.
Any way, whether or not your problem is similar, if someone is reading this thread and is unable to save to ext SD, try what I did. Manually change the save directory.
You need a rooted phone and a root explorer like ES File explorer.
Go the this directory: /data/data/vStudio.Android.Camera360/shared_prefs/
Open the file "vStudio.Android.Camera360_global.xml" with a text editor. This is where some settings are stored. Go to the following line(close to the end):
<string name="pref_camera_save_path_key">/storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/<string>
(you might have a different path depending on what is currently set as the save directory in Camera360)
Change the path in this line to the path you want it save photos in. For example, I have a "DCIM/Camera" folder in my external sdcard and I want the photos to be saved there, so change it to "/storage/sdcard1/DCIM/Camera/", that is, now that line is changed to
<string name="pref_camera_save_path_key">/storage/sdcard1/DCIM/Camera/<string>
NOTE THAT In your phone external sdcard may be at a different path instead of "/storage/sdcard1. Accordingly change it.

Hi, thank you so much for your post. After 5 to 6 fails, I found out that I have to restart the device for it to work.... sorry guys, is there way to change how the picture is named? For example taking out "C360_" on the name?
Thanks.
I had the problem with my s5 running cm 13, that the mic voume was very low. So i searched for a fix but didn't really found something but that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-m2/general/fix-low-microphone-volume-kitkat-t2930748
There it is eyplained how to increase the mic-volume for the sony xperia m2.
That's how you can do it with the S5:
Code:
I am not responsible for any damage. Do it on your own risk!
1. download for example file Manager and activate in the settings the root settings (root Explorer and writeable)
2. go to /System/etc
2. save the file "mixer_paths.xml" if you do any mistake
3. open the file with the editor and scroll down to line (half of the page) <!-- Recording Scenario -->
4. Change the values u need to to i.e.: 899:
An exampel:
Code:
<ctrl name="DEC2 Volume" value="899" />
5. Save the file and reboot.
Now the microphone must be louder. You need to look which value is the best, i am using the value 899. When i tryed a higher value the mic doesn't work.
Hope i could help you! Please correct me if i am wrong with something!
My modified mixer_paths.xml file:

Very nice post as my Student. Hope there will be some new posts in future :good:

Hello fellows XDA, after updating my G928T to marshmallow, I can't seem to find setting.db under sqlite or even searching the file doesn't come up in /data/data/com.android.providers.setting/databases. Does anyone know where I could find this file or what may happen to it? Thanks all!
Sent from my SM-G928T using XDA-Developers mobile app
I found some details here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...e-settings-how-to-toggle-ringtone-vibration-i
from that page:
"move system settings from db to xml
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/../settings.db --> /data/system/users/userid/settings_[system|global|secure].xml"
For me it was "/data/system/users/0/settings_system.xml" and I was able to use Root Browser to find and edit it. The file is very long and hard to navigate (i was just using root browsers editor which has no search function) but I was able to add hotspot toggle on my S5 by editing it, just like I used to with the old settings.db

I was able to find it, but after editing and given the right permission also restarted, the setting reset to default and the new changes didn't stick in the new file.

I mean the setting used to be stored in a .db file, but (because samsung changed it i guess) it is now stored in a .xml file. no need to rename anything, just edit the xml.
I was able to find it, but after editing and given the right permission also restarted, the setting reset to default and the new changes didn't stick in the new file.

If i recall correctly there are 2 entries pertaining to the toggles and one seems to overwrite the other on boot. Make sure to change both if anyone is still trying to do this. If that doesn't work then I don't know what I did to make it stick.

I found that xml, I copied it on my pc, opened in browser but in that xml I couldn't find anything related to mobile data toggling, or notification toggling like this: notification_panel_default_active_app_list. Could you pls tell me how did you manage to add mobbile data toggle using this method? I'm on Sprint N920P. Thanks in advance
I've seen a lot of methods posted here, none of them is really working. The easiest and most effective way is this one. (Headphones only)
You need a rooted device and a file manager with root access.
Go to root\cust\hw\eu\prop and open local.prop with an editor. Search for the "ro.config.ce_authenticate=1" line and add a # before it. Save the file.
Now go to root\etc\audio\hi6402 and look for the "mixer_volumes_PLK_L01_ce.xml" file, and for the "normal" version of it. Delete them both. You may want to make a backup of them, in case you want to return to the previous situation. Now look for the two "PLK_TL" mixer files and rename them both. Change "TL" with "L01".
Basically you're tricking your honor 7 into taking the asian variant values for the audio, so you'll get the full audio output of that model.
Reboot and you're done.
Volume is MASSINGLY increased. Viper4Android will optimize the quality and make it sound even louder. Please don't listen to your music at maximum volumes for a long time.
If this is useful to you please say thanks
Flashable .zip
I just quickly made a flashable .zip that replaces a few values in the two files,
so that you don't need to do any tinkering whatsoever , just flash it
Since i cant seem to attach the file i had to upload it to somewhere else (Mega):
