this is for all root users .
if u dont know anything about root,search it on google.....
now the basic concept is that any app comes to know about "which device u have" from the build.prop file present in system directory of your phone.the trick is to edit your build.prop file so that the app thinks that you have a galaxy note...
STEPS:
1.you need a file manager that supports root functions.you can download (rootexplorer.apk) from attachments .
2.after installing root explorer ,open it .it will request root access . click on allow. then go to system directory .first click on the button showing mount system read/write above and then click on build.prop .root explorer will prompt you with a list of programs to open the the build.prop file.
3.choose text editor .then you will be able to edit the build.prop .just find out wherever your devices model number is written change the number to GT-N7000 .
4.Specially change "ro.product.manufacturer" to Samsung and change "ro.product.model" to GT-N7000.
please hit thanx if you think it was helpful
you can ask for egsteroid levels
dont forget to put hiphens in model number........
Didn't help
Unfortunatelly Danger Zone levels didn't show up in the app main screen. I changed model in two places and manufacturer in one. Didn't find any other instances of these two variables. Any ideas?

you can put back original brand name an model but i am not sure will those levels stay unlocked or not.i think if you will play some of them and then revert back ,they will stay unlocked.
actually, i never wanted to revert back because with this trick google plays lets me download apps that are incompatible.....
I found two entries for the model
it was the second one - near the manufacturer one...

by the way - if you revert and reboot you will lose the levels again (but the progress is saved)
Works on my HTC One S. I played a few levels, then restored my build.prop file, rebooted a few times and still works.

Im not sure if this works on samsung focus (or under Mango) ,but Im gonna try it , the method works great for replacing alert tones , so I cant imagine why it wouldnt work for the image as well!
I might add , you dont need to follow those intruction , just open heathcliffs root explorer (you need to be dev unlocked ) , go to the windows folder , copy your picture and put it in my documents, (you have to email it to yourself ,open in phone and save,it will go to the wallpeper folder,for there make a copy) once the windows folder is open and stops loading , hit paste , it will say its gonna overwrite the original , let it ,then get out of there restart your phone and it should be there .

Read the very first of the forum rules, please! (The others are good too.)
first i have searched, but i can only find about windows 8, i want to change on windows rt, and the program that is on forum is about windows 8 not RT version, understand ? :good:
( because the windows version that i have created on this sub-forum "Windows RT Development and Hacking ")

How exactly did you do as the program ModernBack_changer is not compatible with RT ?
You'll only be able to do a memory patch to change the image. Hacking imageres.dll would invalidate the signature on it and cause it not to load next time you rebooted, which would likely break Explorer and Metro (meaning don't do it).
I had came across a tool to do this on W8 a while ago, but I don't remember what it was called. Just be careful, don't use any tool that wants to edit any system .dll directly.
Edit: Ignore this post, I was apparently mistaken.

Most standard codesigning approaches only sign the code section and not the resource fork, which given this result is what I'm expecting may be happening (I've not actually checked out how codesign is implemented).
I assumed that code signing checked the entire files, I seem to have been misinformed. Ignore my previous post.
I've done a little research into Authenticode signing. There are parts of the file that aren't checked. Typically they do not include things like the string tables (that is, those are checked) but image content might not be.

Ok so I have a problem, I would think most users have this too: The max volume level being too low. So I went ahead to search google for help, and downloaded "Ultra volume mod" now what I'm supposed to do is to overwrite the "default_gain.config" but when I do, it says permission denied. So I tried another method, manually editing the code. Now it justs says that an error occured when I try to save it. I did a little digging on the internet, and found out that my system is apparently read-only, how do I change that? Oh yeah, I'm currently using ES File Explorer, most people said theres a button to mount something but I can't find the button, maybe thats the fix to it? I have the latest updated version of the root explorer and I still cant find the mount button.
Well, while you're here can you help me with another one? On game hacking apps such as GameCIH or GameGuardian, either right after I grant root permission, it says "error: root denied" or it says nothing and when I try to change the code, nothing happens. Thanks for helping.
Device: Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-17005
Root: Yes
OS: Android Jellybean 4.3, Stock.
Any other info thats needed? Please say so, I will do my best to provide them. And please don't post complicated stuff, the most I can do is read simple codes and edit them, such as the volume one. I cant decode, read complex codes or create codes, if theres anything complicated, please try your best to explain how to do it. Thank you in advance for your help.

Open ES file explorer hit menu button ,scroll down, check mark root explorer ,slider will turn blue,then click extreme left of root explorer you'll get a pop up with few options,click on Mount R/W then another pop up comes up and you'll see RO and RW columns,and 4 rows of options.Select the RW column for each of the row options.That would mount your system to read and write files just like you are doing right now.Once you change your default_gain.conf it will ask you to replace it with existing one (you should make a back up of your original one on the sd card) then replace it,long press on the new file click on MORE at the bottom right then Properties then you'll see permissions as RWX-RWX-RWX- and Change next to it.click on change and you'll see 3 rows and 3 columns make it read as RW-R-R basically selecting first 2 columns for first option and only the first option for 2nd and 3rd row.Click ok,exit the es file explorer and reboot your phone. I am attaching images below so you can get visual help as well (my options differ a bit under es file explorer since im not running TW ROM but concept is same
Note: Root is must (I see you've mentioned you are rooted)
Thank you so much for the help, it worked perfectly, now my volume is just as its supposed to be. Thank you for your help, now i just need someone to answer my second question.
2nd one sounds like an app issue now you have confirmed it's not a root issue. Probably don't work on 4.3. Think I remember seeing groans from game cheaters about apps not being supported.
Oh okay... well, i tried out the mod, forgot that 1db more is 3 times a loud as the bd before. Almost busted my cheapass earphones. Also the static noise you hear in idk, clash of clans during start up increased by at least 5 times. Switching back, luckily i took your advice on making a backup.Thanks guys, really helped me. In the shortest time of any other forum too.

Ya many of us eat , breathe and sleep on xda and love to help out people cause we were also once in your shoes so I know how it feels when something doesn't work right ,the anxiety levels sky rocket at once and panick sets in.
Edit: You might want to quote people when responding to someone in particular so he/she gets notified otherwise they might not check back on the thread and your future questions might be left unanswered.Just a suggestion
Well if its just thanks i think they would like it if they didnt get spammed on email. Anyway i fixed the static problem, seems like the old speakerboost app i tried but did not delete was jealous of the mod, uninstalled and mod works like a charm.

Sure you can spoof Mac. Hard coded doesn't matter.
There are several ways to spoof. Here is one way: http://www.gohacking.com/spoof-mac-address-on-android-phones/
You can also edit a file with root access but I can't remember the file name. I will see if I can't find it.

/persist/wlan_mac.bin this is file where macc address stored change the First Line that is for wlan0 so change it put mobile in Flight mode and turn off the flight mode. I'm going post a video on this soon....
Hope this is helpful

Check this video, it's basically changing the wlan_mac.bin file. But you have to use an app called nethunter to reset the Mac in order to change it.

Hi There
Happy to share I been able to make Wi-Fi calling and volte working on my HTC u12+ I'm using EE UK network and finally get all works after few months of struggling..
I read what LIabTooFer said about manual activate Wi-Fi calling and volte on non branded phones
You can find that on his twitter post from August 31
https://twitter.com/LlabTooFeR/status/1035495777966153728
So I did exactly what he wrote over there but I couldn't get that working (maybe because he got HTC u11)
So I did exactly what is below
you need to be rooted and able to use any root explore or just pull files to your PC and use notepad++ or similar
DO BACKUP!!!!
edit default.xml
you can find in /system/customize/acc and if you got htc__xxx.xml which is named with your phone cid in acc folder just delete it
check lines in default.xml and edit
<item name="carrier_default_wfc_ims_enabled_bool" type="boolean">false</item>
<item name="carrier_htc_ims_setting_type_bool" type="boolean">false</item>
<item name="carrier_htc_show_volte_ui_bool" type="boolean">true</item>
<item name="carrier_htc_volte_ui_checked_bool" type="boolean">true</item>
<item name="carrier_wfc_ims_available_bool" type="boolean">true</item>
<item name="showVolteStatusBarIcon" type="boolean">true</item>
Save and reboot phone
after reboot check call setting should see options voice over lte and wifi calling
Don't know if will work for everyone as many providers use different settings
link for htc 10 US branded default.xml files for sprint tmobile us verizon and us unlocked you could use that as guide to edit your default.xml https://drive.google.com/open?id=1AKriJ7XOyHNvxkdloAPOcE4tsIUZNesY

I'm interested in getting this to work as I had it on my HTC U11 and EE.
As I don't have that phone anymore, do you think you could share your files so I can try and do this on my phone or if anyone else has access to one of hte phones that works on EE could share them.
Will try post them later today

Think I got the 23433 file copied up to the phone and the other files edited, can't see any wifi calling though..so not sure what I missed. Didn't see any options to push with the tool tho but I copied the file to the SDcard then used root browser to paste it in the right place.
Will see if I can spend some more time on it as maybe the reason I didn't push it is why it isn't working.

Got it updated and can now browse to system but it is showing as blank thats with it ticked to mount so not sure why it isn't loading that folder...using the latest twrp for the september security patch.
