how do i edit my build.prop

---

if i edit my build.prop with astro, on a reboot the changes are lost, the file is marked r-w, so something altering it on bootup, anybody know where the source comes from??

Download Root Explorer and use that. Trust.

tried that, it keeps getting overwritten with some king of backup.

If that's the case, then it's a problem specific to the ROM. I haven't tried it on my TP2 but it worked flawlessly on my G1.

Lemme take a look once I get a second.

why cant i find the directory /system/ ?!?! i cant find the build.prop from within windows or winmo?!

Because it does not excist in winmo. It only excists in android.

I tried Root Explorer and it workers . I use latest froyo build with lower incall volume kernel .

Can somebody tell me when I delete apps in system/apps folder I delete from data.img or from system.ext2 ?

Same here, I change my build.prop file or replace it and it gets overwritten.

Using the build.prop for protected apps but can't get it to stay.

I am using the latest BLAZEN build from PPCGEEKS/Reefer.

Being an Ext2 file instead of sqsh I figure this would have worked flawless.

I'd really like to download logmein, gbahours, paypal and a few other protected apps. I can't without fixing this build.prop file....

OR

Find some way to get a working fingerprint Google has already approved.

Glad to see I'm not the only one looking into this I have the same problem in my android OS - different phone, but same custom OS. Hopefully this thread won't die - if I ever figure it out I'll be sure to post here as well
