I love me some good irony.

And idiot? C'mon bro. At least be creative. You could've used 'daft' or something. *sigh*

Thanks for having my back homeboy.

I've helped too many people to even let silly words bother me.

Next time, post a log of your boot or flash next time you magically flash this apk. Name calling wont get you anywhere, or any respect.

Lots will greatly benefit the devs, along with those how to separate verbose vs errors when trying to find the problem(s).

Your post isn't helping anybody whatsoever.

WOW! Great work!

Just a quick question, I know the alpha stage is over, but surprisingly the alpha update date is June 7th, while the Beta is from April 30th.

Is the alpha really over so I should stick to the Beta, or should I install the alpha version since it's the most recent?

Thanks!

Off Topic:

Love the new site :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks for your nice words.

The alpha apk wasn't actually updated, I just changed the app's title in Playstore from "ALPHA OVER PLEASE INSTALL BETA" to "Pimp My Rom (ALPHA OVER)" and it counted as an update, but technically I can't update the alpha apk even if I wanted to as I lost the keystore used for signing it.

About the server down thingy, the server is back up but I accidentally erased the files from the server, so mods won't be downloadable until next update, but again I probably will take the whole apps & mods section off the app in the future as it's a real 1 star-ratings pit, plus it's probably illegal to distribute proprietary software on Google Play.

If you guys want the mods, a little xda search will get you there.

For the sony mods, go to Rizal Lovins's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2059203

Does pimp my beats really change the sound ? I can't feel any difference even though I put on my earphones. How to activate it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Saenic:
I used your App in alpha stage and the tweaks are great. I'm using most of the build.prop tweaks and add them to build.prop before installing my Roms.

In the alpha version Pimp My Rom would not detect tweaks that were already present in build.prop, init.d, etc... does it do that now and if not, could you implement that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lzk123:
Does this still work? I can't seem to download stuffs in the apps/mods sections. Pimp my beats can be downloaded, but kept giving me "system ui is not responding" error after i installed it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
It still doesn't and I don't have the time/will to reimplement every tweak this way.

But I'm probably being hired as a senior front-end engineer soon, if this happens I'll most likely open source PmR as I won't have time to work on it anymore, meaning if someone wanna implement this, he'll be able to.

Our team has a script that will read the build prop and edit only those which need to be edited. It will also comment out lines that are removed so they are still there if someone wants to manually change it. I wrote the script with the help of decimalman and if you would like to use it you are more than welcome. You can pm me and I will get you fixed up. Its a somewhat complicated sed command but it works in recovery and in the os
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks, please pm me a link so I can take a look. But the app already uses sed -i /pattern_to_match/d before echoing the tweak(s), to delete/replace tweaks that are already present in build.prop and in the init.d script, in order to avoid duplicates.

Yeah, probably. I need to clean-up my code a bit before open sourcing it and I'll probably fix a few bugs along the way.

This doesn't mean I'll completely stop working on it, we'll see how it goes, if I'm still motivated to work on my own projects after 8 hours of code at work.

I got a little standalone root app in the works which will allow to hack the system providers DBs in order to modify some unaccessible ROM settings, I'll add it to PmR when it's ready.

Yeah, you can uninstall the app safely, the tweaks'll stay. And thanks for your encouragements :)

Chinese tablet support RK3188 Pipo M9

Hi [MENTION=4752917]Androguide.fr[/MENTION],

I recently acquired a Pipo RK3188 M9 tablet, and have found that neither your stand-alone build prop works properly with it, nor the latest beta version of PMR. The device is rooted, but does not appear to have build prop activated, so I am very limited in terms of the tweaks I can apply, which is disappointing, to say the least. I have not seen much talk on the thread about Chinese tablet support, but you do claim that PMR should work with any device,so I am hoping that you will honour that claim ;). With the explosion of the Chinese tablet market, I imagine that it will not be too long before you start to see more requests for support for these devices, so it might be an idea to prepare!

To be more specific about the problem, once I reboot the device, none of the changes sppear to remain, especially the build prop scripts. Sorry I cannot be more specific at this time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Well it seems like your tab has some kind of security script which replaces the build.prop with a stashed copy of the original one at each boot.

You might wanna take a look at your /system/etc/init.d folder and see if some script in there is suspect.

If not, then it's probably in your kernel's init.rc, and you'll need to dump your boot partition to an image, unmkbootimg it to extract the ramdisk, remove the faulty lines from your init.rc and use mkbootimg to repackage the boot.img, then flash it.

If you need more explainations on that last bit, tell me.

Alternatively, if the kernel sources for your device are available (which I doubt^^), you could directly edit the init.rc and build the kernel.

I doubt all chinese manufacturers implement this kind of crap in their builds (or at least I hope not^^).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidlover123:
Bro please check your pm
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Its content doesn't really matter here, please post the content of your /system/etc/init.d folder (ie: in a zip), I'll take a look.

What happens if you add a comment (= a line beginning with #) manually, save the file and then re-open it directly?

To verify, please download Terminal Emulator , open it and issue the following commands:

su
mount -o remount,rw /system
echo "# TEST LINE" >> /system/build.prop
cat /system/build.prop

after the last command, verify the last line is # TEST LINE, if it is, then reboot and issue:

cat /system/build.prop

If it has disappeared, then it's obviously caused by either an init.d script (if you're lucky) or by the init.rc (if you're unlucky), as these are the two main ways you can trigger events at each boot (another way would be some bloat system app's Service class, it might be visible in your boot logcat).

Let's start by taking a look at your init.d, then, if needed, I'll try to unpack & modify your kernel for you, or explain you how to.

Try installing the light version of 1.5.3. That one worked for me without any error messages.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
I'll see if i can find one of the previous versions with inverted gapps on my pc so i can simply copy/paste the code, would save some work. I'll see what I can do, but that's heavy stuff, would make the zip size go up to around 250mb.

And yeah i'm kinda overloaded with work to do, never have imagined this project would become so popular :cool:

Plus I need time to maintain PA for the 3 models of galaxy tab 7.7 and of course my in-real life.

So please forgive me if I can't update PmR as quickly as I would guys.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xpmode:
Most tweaks work great and give a buttery smooth feeling with TWRP recovery and CM9 running on HTC Explorer A310e. However it gives a weaker boost on CM10(probably because project butter).

However the faster internet browsing or faster wi-fi connection tweak backfires, causing annoying delays up to 3-4 seconds per connection.
