Hello. I have been trying to edit some values in the mixer_path.xml file, but every time I edit the values, they return to default after phone restart.
I am on 10.0.9.0 rooted with magisk.

Hello guys
I need your help, i'm working on a mod and a friend said me to modify the file: settings.db located in data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
I only have to change "1" to "0" in the "secure" tab
for this I used Sql Lite browser for windows 7.
So i did it and saved the database, and then with root explorer replaced with the original settings.db but ....
I entered in a boot loop, why ?
I know for sure the "0" is a secure value, because used in a stock old rom
Why bootloop so? Have I to changed permissions to file?
Can please help me to do it without a new bootloop?
Thanks
I use H815 with rooted 5.1 rom (BL is not open).
I would like to use about 20 seconds screen timeout value, but in the rom there are only 15 or 30 seconds options, no value between them.
I know the screen timeout values are definied in the LGSettings.apk (res/values/arrays.xml).
With AndroidMultitool I can decompile (with lots of error messages) LGSettings.apk and with Notepad++ I can succesfully edit the values/arrays.xml file.
Unfortunately I can’t complie the LGSettings.apk with AndroidMultitool or apktool.
My question is: is it possible to make an update.zip only with the modified arrays.xml inside, and flash it to system/priv-app/LGSettings/res/values?
I am trying to enable Miracast by editing build.prop but system is not mounting. Tried ES file explorer and build prop editor too. I'm on stock Oreo right now. Any means to edit build prop? Unable to mount system to r/w.
Edit : The problem is may be due to Magisk, the systemless root prevents changes in system files. All the method I've tried the problem seems to be the Magisk. SuperSU working fine.
It is a very good idea not to edit build.prop directly using Magisk. You put some resetprop command in a directory (which changed with newest Magisk, before it was some init.d), and it will be executed on startup. There are quite some threads about this, just search for it.
I asked several times how to prevent system from being mounted r/w. I don't want any app to achieve this. If you find it how you did it, please tell me what to do to enable this problem prevention.

I don't know how to do it, I am looking for ways. There is a magisk module for build prop but the problem is it's not for Oreo so it doesn't work. I think I need to make a module but I don't know how to make one.
You do not need to do a Magisk module, although it is possible to so. You probably want to do a shell skript. This is a text file with one line
resetprop (parameters)
You may need to write more lines into it, one for every property you need to change.
Until Magisk 16.3 there was some dir post.fs where you could put startup shell scripts. This changed recently. Please search for the syntax of resetprop and which dir you need to put the skript into.
Please ask how to to do it in this thread, there were some more people which had the same task.
Edit: As usual, do not forget to read the thread before asking anything

I've found a Magisk module that do the same stuff, it's called Magisk props config. You can add tweaks to build prop without editing it. It's so easy and helpful.
As this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78125891&postcount=43 describes, I modified mixer_paths_tavil.xml changing the AVC Volume value in attribute headphones-hifi-dac, from 15 to 6, in order to achieve the AUX volume values in normal mode
The file mixer_paths_tavil.xml is saved correctly. Then I mount /vendor read-only again and remount, and I check that the file remains changed with the modification done. The modification date timestamp reflects the change
But no effect in the sound
So I guess I should reboot the phone for the change takes into effect. But then, after the reboot, the mixer_paths_tavil.xml is again the original one without the changes (and the mofication date is Dec 31 2008, the original ...)
So how should I edit this file to keep the changes with the reboot?
I'm on Pie
Thanks in advance
I know with my v30 i changed values in mixer_paths tavil.xml set permissions reboot and I was all good but my lg g7 im still trying to unlock my bootloader with the instructions but after updating magisk manager I have no root to finish the rest of the commands. I wish I could edit this same file and see whats going on and why it wont stick after reboot.
I am also facing the sam issue my bootloader is unlocked and i am rooted on android 10. Changes dont stick after reboot.
First thing is make or edit magisk module to have this file changed. Second thing is make a file called service.sh (with permissions rw- r-- r-- or 0644)
In this file you need to write
Code:
killall audioserver
Explanation: Vendor partition in pie and android 10 is impossible to edit in case of LG G7. You need to have this file modified in magisk module with proper permissions and catalogs (vendor/etc). Even if you have audio related files modified in magisk module, there's second problem. Everything will be booted with default values. That's why you need service.sh with killall audioserver. This will reload all your audio related files at early stage of system boot, and new values will be applied.

Are u bootloader unlocked? If not then follow this guide to unlock it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/howto-updated-guide-to-unlock-t4168771
After that rooting is very simple process use QFIL to backup your boot_a img copy it to phone install magisk manager and and patch that file with magisk. Then write this img file to ur boot_a partition using QFIL and thats it.

You can create that file in main module catalog.
I created service.sh and copy it inside a dual speaker magisk module zip file.
Yep thnx man its working now sounds are too much lowder

The settings I want to make the first screenshot. Other screenshot stock sets
I believe you're trying to change kernel settings, those files are usually reset on reboot to keep the kernel's integrity.
You can either use a Kernel Manager – so that it will apply those settings for you automatically on reboot – or look for a Magisk module that does the same, but you may find something more to your liking.

I could not find a suitable module for a2 lite. The custom kernel allows it while the stock kernel does not.
