You could extract this file from *.FFS or grab from handset.
Maybe some tweaking possible...

I already tryed to increase the max. resolution to 8000x8000px for jpg a week ago but it didnt worked
This file exists 2 times and I flashed them correctly to the wave (tested with sTunes after flash), the limits seems to be set somewhere else...
The image sizelimit is also higher than 4096000 byte (or what it is) - about 10 mb.

I would have liked to tweak this setting to 200 or more and see but unfortunately there are not that many good apps to install.
<MaxInstallCount>
<NativeApp value="300"/>
<NativeWidget value="50"/>
<JavaApp value="-1"/>
</MaxInstallCount>
Btw, what does this Java value mean ? Could it be that it controls whether to show icon in Menu or not ?

@ st0rmi
Thanks.
Yes, via sTune this file is twice.
It seems writeprotected files are most in folder SystemFS... as Backup.
If you check via TriX Firmware files. Then Contents.xml is in *.FFS... maybe edit before flashing. Then changes in both files on handset.
Not tested yet...
@ rex4u
At the moment I have nothing changed in this file, so no idea what happens.
Maybe soon few tests...
Best Regards

@adfree: Yeah thats what I have done
I just used sTunes to copy the contents.xml back to my pc and view if the edited xlm are really on my phone because it didnt worked...

@adfree
No bro' I was offering my own suggestions to this configuration file.
It might allow us to install more than 100 apps in phone and show in Menu.
Second it might show Java apps icons in Menu.
My 2 cents

xml parser
please help me
a want to parser punker xml data base.

it's into the 'app counter' field, '-1' may be means 'unlimited' number of java apps installable, but I haven't read yet the whole xml... anyway if it is editable it's an interesting thing..

I saw that file a while ago while looking for something inside my phone (very special thing that made me to copy the whole phone)
there is a lot of interesting things but i never tried tweaking it
Maybe if someone have enough knowledge to add few new extensions and test them
Also removing some stupid limits would be awsome
Sorry i've no time to test that with you guys but would appreciate results
Best Regards

You dont need modif ffs or other just use pfs file to modif what you want and in real time direct phone flash pfs file and not have write protect problem
Just says Thank
Example file : dont give attention of boot img cause i dont take time to do it in 800x480 but its 400x240 then its make bug but with pfs file you can upload anything you want to change !!!
Good hack !!!
Maybe with this you can create dual boot or i dont know what a pro smoker can do, you can also try to put her rc2 or rc1 directory i dont try it !!!
Download example, in this one you can see SystemFS and Registry directory, off course you can put her all directory you want to flash pfs, using trix to modified or wave remaker more faster :
https://rapidshare.com/files/809973956/Circle.pfs
An idea its like you can make your one firmware with personal Widget installed and other idea welcome....Just take file registry and Widget folder on phone and put it on PFS

[HACK] Customizing Bada OS

Hi all, using TkFileExplorer 2.4 you can see and edit Bada system files, in this thread I will report all usefull changes I will find and you could perform using this tool

How to use TkFileExplorer:
-Connect your wave to PC with usb cable;
-Select USB Debug connection;
-Start TkFileExplorer and clic Connect;
-if the program fails to connect, try changing the COM port number in Settings;
-Make a backup of the files you change;
-...and try at your own risk!
Changing default browser brightness:
File: Phone:/Settings/Default/Registry/BrowserSettings.ini
Customize power on/off screen:
for configuration:
File: Phone:/Settings/Default/Registry/PowerOnOff.ini
for resources:
Directory: Phone:/SystemFS/PowerOnOff/
Change volume presets for calls, audio player, fm radio, video player, ringtone...:
File: Phone:/SystemFS/Driver/volpresets.xml
Cleaning themes preview images:
Simply clean the files in:
Directory: Phone:/User/Mass/Theme/Default/
Change camera settings:
File: Phone:/Settings/Default/Registry/CamSetting.ini
File: Phone:/SystemFS/Driver/CameraCaps/DevCamDeviceCapsNConfig_Primary.xml [only Bada 1.2]
Change Samsung LBS settings:
File: Phone:/Settings/Default/Registry/LbsConfig.ini
for using external bluetooth gps antenna, change BtGPS=1 (not tested yet) in:
File: Phone:/Settings/Default/Registry/LbsAppRegistry.ini
Usefull directories:
Internal user storage: Phone:/Media
MicroSD storage: Phone:/Mount/Mmc
Preinstalled apps: Phone:/Osp/Application/

Hey thanks a lot for the heads up! I just had a question... Can we really change the intro animation..? I mean completely replace it..? Or is that not possible??
Reply soon....

Hi all, I find the file /User/OspSys/LifeLog/Database/lifelog.db.
It's SQLite (view by sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net )
There are many information, calls, deleted messages (but only 100 chars).
I hope, it's information isn't send anywhere, because my wave is trying to connect once a day (it's maybe one of the widget)

hi, today I just gave a quick look to all files, but I think it's possible, in PowerOnOff.ini there are clear bindings to two .swf files and a startup / shutdown .wav sound contained in the resource path Phone:/SystemFS/PowerOnOff not sure, need to watch those files, I'll verify in next days..

Yes, you can change this too in Trix but in fact nothing change. Exp. you can't change "volume level" (exp. in MediaPlayer there is limit to 14 steps, if you change that to 15 steps and add one more <spklevel> and <earlevel>-so that there will be 15 steps, but nothing change in Wave, you can still able go to max. 14 steps in MediaPlayer) and you can't change that may mp3 playing miusic lauder as well as playing video, even if you copy and paste settings from VideoPlayer to MediaPlayer (only test that on speaker not on headphones).

In Registry\MainMenu_reg.ini you can remove any icons from the main menu (except SamsungApps). The file format is clear, I will note only that the system items will have MenuType=0, custom user applications - MenuType=1, SamsungApps - MenuType=2.
And, of course, make a backup before any manipulations with MainMenu_reg.ini

to be clear
adfree had made all those expermintes before & we already know these things
if there is something new please post it

Unfortunately I have not found anything like that using tkFileExplorer...

Assuming that replacing original browser it's difficult to do, source code is available (http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/reception_main.do?method=reception_list&menu_item=mobile thanks to sabianadmin) but the browser seems deeply integrated in the os files (also notice that Samsung Dolfin is not the open source browser Dolphin..): is there anyone who found in filesystem files the textures used by the browser GUI? if aren't cripted it will be possibile to change them for having a more usable GUI on our little screen (I'm thinking of upper/lower bars..)

I think the browser user interface might be in the file called BrowserAppControl.so which can be found in the SystemFS>Osp folder. All files in that folder are in .so formats. But they are RSA 1024bit signed. And they are not like other settings in phones which are written in html or xml. These files are similar to the .dll files on Windows. .so files are Linux format files.

Is there anyway to modify an *.ini file to enable "Noise Reduction" to always be on during calls?

i got the same error
im running the latest firmware s8530DXKB1/s8530OLBKB1

you have to specify the port you are using for connection from settings

in Phone:/SystemFS/Driver/CameraCaps/DevCamDeviceCapsNConfig_Primary.xml
you can change max ISO and max resolution parameters for phone camera, so you can set iso1600 or 8mp for photos, probably it is useless but it's still a hack
thanks to: http://www.badaitalia.com/2011/06/13/fotografie-con-poca-luce-a-iso-1600/
(on Bada 1.0.2 this system folder is missing so it's not possible..)

Yeah, I read it. Tonight I'll try and I'll let you know.

maybe you could find it in system/media, but your phone must be rooted first.

[Q] JellyBean: how can i add Silent-Sound.....

Hello,
anyone a good solution to bring into rooted HOX silent-sound (Notification)? Last week i updated to JellyBean and now to many sound
I have a file called "silent.mp3" to hear nothing and will use it as standard sound for notifications.i moved that file into system\media\audio\notification folder....but then:
my Silent.mp3 not listed in the Sounds-bar
rename existing "si.mp3" to si.mp3.bak" and then rename my "silent.mp3" to "si.mp3" --> also not listed longer
I think it's related an date from files (creation Date). I tried to change the file-properties at the same date as the original file but after save is it not changed. mysterious.
anyone a good idea, then i need really a silent sound :-S
Thanks for Ideas. Nice Xmas for all from you!

Firstly install mixplorer(needed selecting custom ringtone) . Then, go to the contacts and long press on the contact you want, click on edit. Finally click Set ringtone on 3dot menu and choose the mixplorer. I do not know an easier way.
MiXplorer:

Use any file explorer app then copy your own ring tones into the Ringtones folder in the internal storage. They should now show up in the ringtones list when you are assigning one.
