/system

someone in my thread posted this possibly solved their BT/wifi streaming issues. if any 300 owners have BT/wifi streaming issues, try this tweak out and see if it fixes it. I'm chopping it up to the decrease in wifi_scan interval. since it scan alot less vs. stock, it might be allowing BT signal to get out better. just a thought

this user said he has 3 YouTube videos streaming simultaneously, with stickit, while listening to them with his BT headphones. where before he couldn't. only difference is this tweak build.prop.

you have to make sure to set the permissions for the new one. Then make sure its in /system. then reboot.

If this work my Sister will be happy, She was cautious because the believed the mods would void her warranty and she didnt want to go there.

Thanks

That's why you always back up EVERYTHING first. Especially the original build.prop

What do you mean by set permission? How do I do it? I can see that the build is changed is that enough?

 

[Citruspers]

Thanks, just installed the new build.prop with solid explorer, easy as pie.

no thats not enough..lol

to see permissions, make sure you have your root explorer mounted as readwrite (RW). you do that by pressing the little tab up top of root explorer that says mount as rw. Make sure to backup the original build.prop file or you can long click on it and rename it. you rename it by adding ".bak", part inside quotations, to the end of the original file name. Id say do both. i had sent a copy of my original file to my dropbox just to be on the safe side. just in case i need outside access to it. then you can place the modded build.prop into /system. once its in there, now you need to set its permissions properly. this is done by scrolling down to that file. then long click it. then select the option that says permissions. then a pop up box will appear for you to set permissions.

Make sure it looks like this: rw- r-- r--
r w -
r - -
r - -

after you set permissions, mount the root explorer back as read only(ro). then reboot tablet & you should be good to go. If you dont notice any improvements immediately, just give it a chance to warm up to the new tweaks. you will notice shortly after

 

[demandarin]

@seanzscreams. someone pointed out something about a particular line you have in this build.prop. its
com.qc.hardware=true. from Googling it, its a qualcomm only specific line. is that supposed to be com.NV.hardware=true? a user gets a bootloop with cm9 build and thinks this may be the cause. seems like that's the only rom having bootloops with it. but I wanted to see how come this qualcomm tweak is in our Nvidia tegra3 build.prop. or how does it help tegra3? unless its really something else?

Any new tweaks you tried out or going to implement?

Yep. In order it appears in the pop up box.

you actually dont need root

but this is way easier if you do

you could adb push /system/build.prop

wait wait wait... you can just push stuff to /system/ using adb? why dont we just push su to /system/ to get root?

Important part is what permissions the file will have after being put in /system/. Just putting it in there isn't enough if it can't do everything it needs to do, nothing can be ADB'd to /system/ with full permissions I don't think.
