Is there any way to change the model of my device to be detected as a Samsung s7, s8 or s9? In the forum I read that this can be done by editing the build.prop file, but I don't know if there is another way to do it without editing the file. The important thing is that I want to try to install the Fortnite apk, but for this my phone must be detected as a Samsung s7 / 8/9 or note
Excuse my poor english :crying:

That is not gonna work. It looks deeper and only the editor of the XDA portal has a version that can be run on other devices that they dont plan on sharing.

There's a search button mate. You can find the patched Fortnite APK you can install, download obb, choose a character but epic games will kick you in the game.

You need to write "samsung" not "Samsung" as manufacturer. Then you will get into the game but you will always get kicked after jumping out of the bus

Most of you might be knowing that Android is
an Operating System based on Linux.
Well this Operating System has the parameters to achieve
many things. Such way this can also help us
actually emulate Windows 95 on our phone.
The results are not great, but result is positive.
The Windows lag sometimes.
Even the Fonts aren't visible clearly.
Tutorial -
1) First Download this file - LINK-http://www.mediafire.com/?099fqbi93ifbl9x
2) You will notice that there are 2 files inside.
A folder named 'SDL' and an APK named - 'SDL.TECHTON.DEVELOPER.apk'
3) You must put the folder named 'SDL' directly inside the SD card (not in any folder or something)
4) Now Install the APK and then your done !
5)open the apk file after install
5)This is the look of windows which starts approx. after about 2 or 3 minutes
do not forget to press thanks button if i helpfull for you
thats now a os, thats not even a shell or theme. and by the way, it sucks
anyone tried this one?
Not working... while click the app, it's close directly.

Hello,
I've seen many threads implying that editing your build.prop file is simple, yet many other threads exclaiming that people have bricked their devices.
Has anyone successfully edited their SGH-T989/D phones to emulate the SGH-1337M? I have an odd reason, but I don't want to screw up.
Here is a link to the Galaxy S4 (I9500) build prop:

Here is a link to the SIIx build.prop:

How simple is this process? Which lines should I edit? What is your recommended editor app?
Thanks, I'd rather ask now than beg for solutions later.:fingers-crossed:

Maybe 'emulate' is the wrong word, but I am under the impression that I can swap the model number by changing the ro.product.model in the build.prop file. I want Google to think my SIIx is an S4 so I can access advanced apps that aren't optimized for my SIIx.
Here is a guide I found for simpletons like myself, but I just want to see if anyone else has done so successfully.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948558
I got impatient and changed the model number in the Build.prop and the phone did not brick. The System Settings on the phone does in fact confirm the updated model number as being SGH-1337M but the Play store hasn't updated the device yet so I can't confirm if my 'illusion' has completely worked.:laugh:

Any of you know how to revert?

if you have rooted your phone and then edited your build.prop with a change in android version....
then you have to root it again, and then go through the same process....
Hey, so is there any way to get the 4 Multi Window feature, instead of just the 2 Multi Window feature, on the Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1, just like the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 has?
I was wondering the same thing. I wonder if it's a Note (S-Pen) exclusive, and therefore not available on the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1?
quadview or 4 multiwindow apps simultaneously 8.4 & 10.1
EDIT: THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED WORKING BY @GreenMachine...SEE POST BELOW. ALSO...THE FIXED ZIP HAS BEEN ATTACHED TO THIS POST.

whats going on guys...i've ported the multiwindow mod to several other devices & just wanted to post the instructions to enable quad view for the tab pro models that shipped without it. If this does in fact enable the new option then feel free to donate a dollar to the multiwindow master himself @xperiacle since he is the one that made this discovery and has put in the most effort in making these mods work on devices that dont have them by default....i have linked to his paid app below which does the same thing as the zip (unfortunately i cant suggest purchasing it because i'm not sure whether or not it will work on the tab pros) but as for me a simple click on the thanks button will suffice

2. copy xml file in "system/etc/permissions" to the same location on your device then change the perms to 0644 (or rw-r--r--) then reboot.[/B]

Please keep in mind that i do NOT have the device myself yet (plan on getting the LTE 8.4) so i will need someone to test and confirm that this does indeed work...dont worry about it harming your device as all the zip file does is add a few xmls to the "etc/permissions" folder.

3. COPY XML FILES IN "SYSTEM/ETC/PERMISSIONS" TO SAME LOCATION ON YOUR DEVICE AND CHANGE PERMS TO 0644 (OR RW-R--R--) THEN REBOOT. U should actually only need to add 2 of the included xmls (maybe even 1) with the obvious one being "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.quadview.xml" and the other possible one being "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml" that has an identical name as a file already on your device but is actually different when opened which means it needs to be replaced (the copy included in the TEST1 zip is the NOTE 12.2 version which we know has working 4 way multiwindow while the copy in TEST 2 is the one that originally came on the 8.4)

thanks for testing... i believe we actually only need one of the perms included but added all of the ones i've noticed missing from other devices just in case some other hidden feature may be available (there's a level 3 sensor xml that i found in a note 3 rom but i doubt that it does anything extra). Also...i found the source of the error which was just my sloppy editing of the updater-script.

Yeah it runs really well. I don't understand why Samsung didn't give the option for 4 Windows to us 8.4 owners. Maybe they thought that the 8.4 screen wasn't logical for 4 windows.

Thank you ! I was pretty upset when i discovered that there are not 4 windows just like the tab pro 12.2 .
OK a 8.4 " tablet may be too small but they could at least give the option for people , i don't get it too :/
I'll definitely flash it, my LTE version should arrive on monday !
What's the difference between TEST 1 and 2 ?

both zips contained the same files including an xml labeled "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml" that has an identical name as one thats already on your device but is actually different when opened which means it MAY have needed to be replaced/renamed...the copy included in the TEST1 zip was the NOTE 12.2 version (also included in the V1) which we know has working 4 way multiwindow while the copy in TEST 2 is the one that originally came on the 8.4(Wont bother switching it back unless the other copy removes features or causes conflicts)

i know that the LTE version is SUPPOSED to do calls because it has the phone app & earpiece but i just want to know if u could please confirm when u receive your unit because I live in the usa where the 3g/4g versions usually have the voice function disabled & have to order from overseas so i would like to know for sure...thx in advance

this is actually a question for anyone who can answer...is it true that samsung removed the icon to go from full screen to floating mode? i played with a demo unit and didnt see it...i was wondering if it was because there was no multiwindow manager app installed or what. Not sure if u guys are familiar with what i'm talking about but there used to be a black cascade icon in the lower right corner (which could be moved wherever u wanted it) that when pressed performs like the restore icon in windows (even looks similar)...if any of u guys owned any 4.1.2 samsung with multiwindows then u should be familiar with it especially if u had a tab plus or 7.7. Also...can someone that uses allshare cast/miracast/screen mirroring please tell me if multiwindow will work at the same time? This used to be a limitation of older versions so i would like to know if that has changed or will that need to be my next project...thx in advance

i apologize for any problems u may be having as i should have deleted the other zip i posted...the best way to get back going would be to flash TWRP through odin then use it's built in file manager to delete all of the permissions files u just added EXCEPT "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.quadview.xml" which is the only file u actually need. I believe the file thats keeping your device from booting is the "sensorhub_level3" file but delete all of the others just to be safe...once finished your device should boot and also have the 4 way multiwindow function from the 12.2 tabs. If u choose to or have already reflashed the stock firmware then just re-root and add ONLY the above mention "quadview.xml" with proper permissions & u should be good to go...sorry for the setback

Yes...u only need the one file named quadview.

If u are familiar with xposed framework then just install the wanam module and there is an option in "system-select multiwindow apps" that will allow u to add any app...once u do this u will need to reboot then u will still need to add the apps to the multiwindow launcher by opening the multiwindow tab & pressing the 2 lines at the bottom then pressing "edit" & finally dragging the apps u just added from the left over to the launcher on the right. If u just want to download an app from the playstore that will allow u to add any then i suggest "muliwindow apps manager" which i will link to below but u will still need to reboot & add apps the same way i just described

!!ATTENTION!!
As Google recently changed how the device_profile files are located, these steps below do NOT work anymore. There are only two options you can choose from which you can follow and read about here
#I'll not be responsible for anything that happens to your device when you follow these steps#
If you don't know what ARCore is read this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARCore
After you understand what ARCore is for then continue reading.
@Arnova8G2 has made a flashable zip with support for our device.
AR Stickers download https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Uvspxje-myBIKIeDHfgMpZ4Uv_o5ZFYL
Installation steps:
1. Install original arcore linked below
2. Reboot to TWRP
3. Install twrp-Patch-ARcore-for-all-device.zip
4. Reboot to system
Zip download here. This method is still under testing, so the original method is still shown below.
Step 1. Download ARCore from here https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...se/arcore-1-4-180716096-android-apk-download/
Step 2. Install an app that use ARCore. If you're lazy, you can use this https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-creative-lab/just-a-line-draw-anywhere-with-ar/
Step 3. Open the app you installed in step 2 and let it crash. This will make the folders and files that we're going to use later on.
Step 4. Download the file named device_profile_vince.textproto.txt at the end of this post and rename the file to device_profile_vince.textproto
Step 5. Using root explorer, copy the file you just renamed to /data/data/com.google.ar.core/files/device_profile_database2 and change SE context by selecting the file you just copied and press the three dots. Then select Restore default context and then press OK.
Step 6. Now you can use any apps that require ARCore!:victory:
NOTE: If you updated ARCore repeat step 3 to step 5
Tested on my vince running AEX and havoc os with omnivision sensor
Not really necessary anymore as we've Arnova8G2's flashable zip but I'll keep it here anyways
During the steps above, you probably saw a bunch of files in /data/data/com.google.ar.core/files/device_profile_database. One file is for one device or another variant of the same device. These files come from the manufacturers or Google themselves for the devices that officially ARCore.
Unfortunately, vince, like a lot of other devices, don't officially support ARCore, so some of these files maybe more compatible with vince but I don't have time to test them all. So if anybody have extra time, you can help me find out which one of these files is best suited for our device. You just have to rename the file you want to test to device_profile_vince_.textproto(the _ is to make sure you don't accidentally replace the original device_profile_vince.textproto file) and rename the original device_profile_vince.textproto to device_profile_vince.textproto.bak
If you believe you've found a file that's better than the one on the OP, then please tag me and post the file name in this thread and I'll test it to see if it's better before adding it to the OP

FAQ:
Q:Why (insert app name) can't detect surface?
A:Find a surface that's not shiny or white color. Surfaces that are textured and have sufficient lighting can help. Sometimes a reboot can help too
Q:Why can't I install all apps that use ARCore in play store?
A:They're supposed to be only for devices that officially support ARCore. If you want to use them on vince, download using apkmirror
Q:Why ARCore still isn't working on MIUI even after I followed all the steps?
A:This could be because that MIUI is heavily modified from stock Android so a lot of things aren't working on it.
Q:Why isn't AR Stickers working?
A:Use this version Download, (MIRROR). Thanks to @Arnova8G2 for this

Hi.
Thank you for your hard work.
Can I know if potentially all arcore's app can work on Vince?
I am asking this because I'm fully stock and I would like to know for root it.

All apps that use ARCore should work except for ARStickers, which you've to use the one linked in the FAQ. It's the only app so far I tested that needs to be modded to work.

I wish Venice could support the AR core
Really good work done by you to enable this feature.
May be I am getting error due to miui
Mhhh... Weird.
I must wait 110 hours until unlock my bootloader... Damn.
Anyway.
I developed some app with Google tango.
And yes, the problem can be the Android version also.
Arcore works on few models with Android nougat. If you use a smooth vanilla 8.0 it can works (maybe).
If someone wants to try, please, try this app (now I can't because the bootloader),

Hmm, that's weird, it should work for nougat ROMs too. Maybe because MIUi is heavily modified

Are you sure you followed all the steps exactly? And how does it not work?
Yes I followed the instructions, and all the app (I tested 3 app) does not work (included the area stickers and yours in the guide).
I did also the last modify with root explorer... But I have the same problem of irfan

There is a way to install good lock modules on m Series. Those modules can be installed but not working properly. Some modules get Crash and some like task changer can open successfully but can't be enabled.
How i do install Good lock modules on m series device.
First Download Apk Editor from apkMirror(Dont download it from google play)
After install Apk Editor and open it and select (lets say.....) task changer.apk
and then just rebuild the app. (This can be found on Storage/Apk Editor folder).
then install it. then install nice lock to see those installed plugins.
You can try that method and I tried but it not working. Task changer not crash but it cant be enabled. I think its some kind of permission error. those permissions cant be enabled. So some of XDA Developer is made that work please let me know also.
I also noticed All Samsung M series Devices has Samsung One UI Core and Others has Samsung One UI Version. Those are different platforms. No Knox, No Secure Folder, No Bixby, No Goodlock aps.
im from india
cant install good lock modules on galaxy m30
issue continues to app not installed
help will be appreciated
thanking you
Using lucky patcher, rebuild the apk with "resign with test signture" option. By this, you can install almost any apk but make sure the app is not already installed as system app (in that case, it won't install). Samsung Daily beta, App booster, Clock face, Dictionary app working by this method.
For app booster: use quick shortcut maker from play store or install galaxy labs apk using same resigning method).
You can try few apps I've tested and working properly
