App to change build prop - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

So I need to download some jap games
I need to change my build prop to a jap phone such as an xperia. I plan to use market enabler to change the market to docomo
Anyone know an app that can change the device type in my build prop back and forth so I don't have to mess with ADB ?

I haven't tried it on the E4GT, but Blade Buddy has a prop modifier. It's free on the market.

Root explorer will allow you to do it make a back up by rename it to buildprop.bak then copy it and change it but name it to buildprop again ...

its not on the market but it can be downloaded from amazon app store. its called market explorer. you can change your market to a bunch of different ones.

Don't know that "Jap" is the proper nomenclature lol

There's one called PropModder that works great on the NS4G....not sure about E4GT. It may be free if you can hunt it down on XDA otherwise its a buck or 2

i just did it manually recently to get 50gb of storage on box.net...had to make my phone look like an lg...anyway hit up
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386159
for instructions to change it manually using root explorer just read through the first post on how to change it to an lg...and im sure u can follow the same instructions to turn it to a "jap" phone...in the very least you can follow the instructions to get free 50gbs of storage
if u need an app you can use system tuner or rom toolbox or root tools or like i said root explorer

Rom Toolbox is probably the best app for something like this.

Absolute System has a prop editor integrated on it.

Prop modder on rootzwiki

Rom Toolbox has a build.prop editor along with other goodies =D.

I have the pro version...but I hate its backup feature and everytime I install that app it starts automatically backing my apps up even when I tell it not too...
Titanium is much better they should just give it up
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk

Always edit your build.prop manually with root explorer fist. That way a backup of the original is automatically saved. Cal me crazy but I don't trust an app to backup anything system related.

Well you are not crazy, just a little bit contradictory.

Where to get YouTube HD apk

Hi, does anyone know how and where to get HD YouTube apk that works with our phone?
Sent from my Kindle Fire using xda premium
try changing the phone's resolution. i've noticed that when i set mine to x720, even opera browser's interface changed. the menu is no longer a bar at the bottom but like on the upper left, if im not mistaken. and yeah, i remember youtube being crisper. look for lcd resolution at the market to set screen res.
I'm no genius on the matter, but I think you would need a phone that supports the HD resolution which currently are only a select few with ours out of the picture.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?
The thing is I have the Galaxy Nexus
And it has a YouTube app. That shows the videos in HD. I know our phone doesn't have HD screen but that doesn't matter it can downscale and it will still look crisp.

Hmmmm. It might just not work bro
The new YouTube comes part of gapps with ICS so you would need to have ICS framework most likely to make it work. The new gmail app is also like that as well.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
i guess you guys missed my point. the gnexus version might have a compatibility update just to make it work with ics. but to make youtube's hd look better our phone, we must have an hd screen or at least make the youtube app think that we do.
change your phones resolution from x480 to x720 (using lcd resolution app from the market) and youll see apps like youtube and opera browser detect your phone's res and adapt to it.
HD vids on a fake 720 res is much better than on our native x480's youtube hd vids. opera browser's interface changes just by changing the phone's res. try it and youll see what im talking about.
what it boils down to is, we need someone to make the youtube app think our screen is at least x720. that might work.

DPI and play store

Can someone post the steps to get Google play store to find certain apps when it doesn't recognize my device because I have the DPI set low? I remember when I was on aokp it had the steps built into the ROM but I don't remember how. Play store either doesn't show what I was searching for or it says device not compatible. Also what is the lowest you can set it before the play store can't recognize it? Thanks!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
Change dpi, reboot, clear market cache, enter market, accept.
As far as dpi for market, depends on what you consider working. As you move away from stock, you start having different things happening like movies+tv disappearing or apps being not supported. You have to mess around since no one has yet posted a list of trial and errors. To get around the apps issue, download the modified market app. It will remove the app restriction, but be careful you don't try to install something you shouldn't.
Download LCD modder pro. It gives you the option to download modded market. Works great for me
I use rom toolbox pro to change dpi, reboot, download 2 files from lcd modder pro, install and reboot. You might see a bunch of things fc while its prepping to reboot but its fine

Haha! I know the feeling!!! Just a quick note!
When you replace the files. Delete the app cache for the market and Google services framework via settings then flash the modded market. I'm gonna look into Google services framework as well and see what role that gas in market compatibility. Also after replacing files, reboot to recovery and clear bother cache partition and dalvik cache. That should help.

Did you change the DPI before adding the files? or did you change the files then change DPI and then reboot? It being JB shouldnt really matter as the android market is pretty universal as GB market works on ICS and etc. However they may have changed it.
Can you provide an exact step by step as to what you did?

I would rename your current calender to .bak instead of .apk so you still have it. Then using root explorer move this apk to system/apps the long press it. Click change permissions and I believe they should be set to rw/r/r. Good luck!

It's pretty simple. However this process still did not work on my rooted SGSII. But for future reference of these types of system files here ya go.
- Use Root Explorer to place the file in the System/App folder in the directory
- If the new file is a different name then you can easily just place it in that folder ( of course you have to change Root Explorer to R/O mode instead of R/W mode ) - ( if its the same name then just rename the old file to something you can remember )
- Permissions for most apps would be RW, R, R. Just click on the file and select "Permissions". After you do that you do need to re-boot the device to save the settings.
Note: I did try this with this calendar and it did not work. We actually need a SSGSIII Calendar ported to work on an SGII. I am not smart enough to make that happen. Although I would like to be able to do such things someday. Hope this helps at least for future reference.
I'm pledging $10 towards the Dev who can get the S-Calendar ported yo the T-Mobile SGS-2. Maybe more if it is done by Monday. I know it's not a lot, but it's what I can give.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but this seemed like the most relevant place to post.
I recently put CarbonROM on my phone and, after playing around with it for a bit, realize I absolutely hate the google calendar and just want my old calendar back. I downloaded the apk provided in this thread and attempted to install it but it says I already have the app. Sure enough, if I go to Settings > Apps, it shows up as Calendar Storage, but there is no icon anywhere, such as in my app drawer, that allows me to load the program. I even tried using QuickShortcutMaker, but it can't find the calendar anywhere in the list of apps to make a shortcut. Does anybody know what I can do?
Same situation here with carbon Rom.
Anyone know how to get it working?

I am not sure, but it would seem, S Planer doesn't work on any other ROM than the Samsung Official ROM.
I don't know why... I've testing a lot of possibilities (replace the original AOKP's apk by the Samsung's apk, do a wipe Dalvik, wipe cache, modify the permissions...), a lot of apk (recovered here, recovered on an original v4.1.2 samsung's ROM, recovered on the testing v4.2.2 Samsung ROM...), and it never work on my CyanoGen Mod 10.1...
It isn't an incompatibility with an other home than TouchWiz because I've never use this home with my previous Samsung's ROM and S Planer working correctly...
I will continue to looking to do working S Planer with an other ROM, but I have little hope... :crying:

Yea I thought I tried this like a year ago and stuff got messed up. Maybe I didn't change the properties after installing it and moving it into the system folder (with root explorer) but something didn't work.
Actually I may have been mistaken it might be just the unlocker you have to purchase on top of the basic app.
Dude you want the pro version well idk if it requires an unlocker or there is another standalone app for it but download from market "fast uninstaller " and delete the Super User app and install the other pretty easy..

Superuser elite just installs on top of superuser. It unlocks extra features. Not useful without the basic superuser.

[HOWTO] Add apps to Multiwindow on Stock ROMs

I was just thinking to myself "why mod it so that every app you have installed shows up in the multiwindow bar?" This presents incompatibilities and also makes it hard for those who have a lot of apps installed (me) to really find what we're looking for to actually multitask with.
With the latest leak they've added the ability to specify which apps get multiwindow support through the awesome CSC engine. Now, instead of having all of your installed apps show up, you can pick and choose which ones you'd like to be added.
If you ever wondered how those Sprint apps got added to the list, it's by editing the feature.xml file located in /system/csc
Find this line:
Code:
<!-- Multi Window -->
<CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>com.mobitv.client.sprinttvng,com.sprint.smps,com.sprint.mobilewallet,com.sprint.android.musicplus2033,com.nbadigital.gametimelite,com.zipwhip.devicecarbon.sprint,com.zipwhip.devicecarbon.sprint,com.handson.h2o.nascar09,com.telenav.app.android.sprint</CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>
Add and remove apps by package name. This is a bit advanced so it's more for ROM chefs or users who know how to retrieve package names and feel comfortable editing this file. If someone were to create an app to do this, it would be even better. I have over 300 apps installed and this is the perfect way to make sure I'm not scrolling endlessly as I try to find the app I want to multitask with. A reboot later and your new app should show up in the list.
Thank you.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Thanks Freeza!
I modified the feature.xml and added the Yahoo Mail app (com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.mail) entry and then rebooted. When I went into Multi Window, I was able to add Y!Mail and was able to split screen it.
Nice!!Thank you works fantastic
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Beat me to it, found this earlier and was going to post, great job freeza!
SPRINT GS3 FAQ
Appears Chrome Beta and Chrome are not able to co-exist in Multiwindow. I added Chrome Beta (com.chrome.beta) to feature.xml and then Chrome is not available to split screen with. I then tried to add Chrome (com.android.chrome) to feature.xml as well, but only 1 Chrome will show up.
Great info...A little too complicated for me...worried id screw it up...but still, thanks.

If you use root explorer, navigate to data/app, all the passage names are listed there... just leave out -1.apk... so for quick pic (the blue app icon you see in the screenshot) it would be com.alensw.PicFolder

not all apps are there. i have found a few in another folder. sometimes doing a search in root explorer is better.
