Hey guys,

Can anyone help me with a system dump or an original /system/build.prop file from the pre-orderd US unlocked HTC U11 (backstory below)?

I just got my pre-ordered U11 today, it's awesome. I can make it just the way I want it. I usually change the locale to en-GB immediately, because I can't stand the en-US navigation voice. I tried to use the build prop editor app (jrummyapps build prop editor) to edit ro.product.locale to en-GB and as soon as I rebooted the phone went into a wierd brick loop, with a blank screen. The screen flashes as though it's about to turn on, and then shuts off. This happens continuously.

Luckily, I was able to boot into twrp. I found that my /system/build.prop file was empty. I suspect this is what's causing the strange boot loop.

Can anyone help me with a system dump or an original /system/build.prop file from the pre-orderd US unlocked HTC U11?

You can get one easily by doing `adb pull /system/build.prop`

Thanks so much!

see attached for the stock build.prop from us unlocked...

are u rooted?
Awesome, thanks OMJ! This is awesome. A diff of your file and that bad boyz one shows only ro.build.display and ro.product.version differences when all the extra stuff is taken out. I used the bad boyz build.prop last night with all the extra stuff removed to fix the phone. I really appreciate the stock version you provided - gives me assurance that the phone is close to stock now apart from the tweaks I made to locale and the build/version info.

Kudos to the bad boyz rom devs for keeping it clean and easy to take out mods by separating mods and labelling them with comments!

Yea I'm rooted. I love this phone! Super easy to root and make just the way I want it. Unlike the LG G6, which I'll be sending back to T-Mobile.
