// Little question:

is it secure to manually edit build.prop deleting and adding lines from magic build prop from your zip [MENTION=5300277]Rhievaldo[/MENTION]? I cant flash it with CWM, because I dont have it and flashing by Flash Gordon didnt change anything.

Do your .zip change anything else except changing build.prop and /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/minfree?

Thanks in advance

// Edit:

I changed build.prop and it works, will test it and give feedback
[Sony Xperia M] trkostas:
is it possiple to run the script from terminal window because i cant flash( locked BL) .....?
[Sony Xperia M] ppprokurator:
You can try do it. Be sure that you have installed busybox. It looks like runable, but I'm not expert so better ask [MENTION=5300277]Rhievaldo[/MENTION] :)

Can i flash both, the build.prop tweak and the reincarnation engine with flash gordon?

Unfortunately not, I've already tried.

Is there anyway to get this up and running on a locked bootloader?
[Sony Xperia M] rizla2:
Can we just drop these files into system instead of flashing?
[Sony Xperia M] Rhievaldo:
try it by yourself,, its should work.. but dont forget with requirement... good luck. :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia M] rizla2:
Yup, just tried that out, it works. So, if you have locked bootloader, this is what you have to do:

1. Download reincarnation script and build.prop tweak.

2. Extract zip files onto your sdcard.

3. Copy files(but not the meta-inf) where they need to be copied using any root explorer(I used ES File Explorer)

4. Reboot.

5. Done.

Also, I have a question. What does build.prop change exactly and how to remove those tweaks?

Works like a charm on Android 4.3 locked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia M] the gladiator:
I installed the Reincarnation Engine pushing the files (I have locked bootloader) without any effort. I still don't know the benefit of the mod as I noticed that it deleted three apps I had installed: fouldermount, lmt and macrodroid; at least this is what I spotted so far.

Questions:

1) is that normal ?

2) is there a workaround ?

More in general:

3) I appreciate that the OP says "Reincarnation Engine will try to clean your ROM, mean will delete other tweak" but is it possible to know IN ADVANCE the tweaks (apps in my case) it will delete ?
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
I actually had the same thing but with the settings and google play apps. I was luckily able to reinstall better versions of them. I am also on locked bl
[Sony Xperia M] Rhievaldo:
your apps not deleted, just permissions error.. with root explorer you can repair permissions.. will update with permissions fix tweak..
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
I have now been using this tweak for a few days now on my locked bootloader, fully rooted, deodexed, android 4.3, XMD. And i can report that it works very very well. I gives me a minimum 4-5 hrs extra usage and performance has increased by a milestone, keep up the good work
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
Hey mate, what permissions did you give the files you copied, ive finally got my phone rooted correctly on 4.3, flash gordon is working and i got the Ac!d audio mod working perfectly :highfive:

just want to get this installed and then the quick toggles and camera from z2 and then i'll be happy, and i might not even get my z1 compact at the end of the month :silly:
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Alright bro, if you give me some time, i will give you the place and permissions of each file
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
THIS IS THE GUIDE FOR LOCKED BOOTLOADERS:

Ok buddy here is what you gotta do.

Make sure you meet all the requirements before even starting moving files and changing permissions. Once you meet the requirements, move the files to their correct place and set the permissions as bellow.

1. Extract both files, the build.prop tweak stock zip and the reincarnation engine for 4.3 zip

2. Open the build.prop folder and set perms as follows:

Magic_buildporp.sh --> perms: rwxr-x---

3. Open the reincarnation engine for 4.3 folder, set perms as follows:

Deleted_conflicted.sh --> perms: rwxr-x---

4. Open the system folder in the reincarnation engine folder, then open the etc folder then open init.d and set permissions as bellow:

99darky_zipalign --> perms: rwxrwxrwx

99reincarnation_engine --> perms: rwxrwxrwx

99sqlite_optimise --> perms: rwxrwxrwx

5. Go back twice and open the lib folder and set permissions as follows:

Libncurses.so --> perms: rw-r--r--

6. Go back and open the xbin folder and set the perms as follows:

Openvpn --> perms: rwxrwxrwx

Sqlite3 --> perms: rwxrwxrwx

Zipalign --> perms: rwxrwxrwx

7. Now that you are done all of that, reboot your phone.

Tell me if you have any problems.
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
Awesome thanks mate, im going to give it a go as soon as i get my root back !?!? ... it was working fine i even did stuff that required full root (flash gordon - acid audio mod - with NO problems and now its telling me that busybox isnt installed and cant get access to the right shell because i dont have proper root :confused: i even had init.d support installed and working and that stopped too :mad:
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Did you use the root fixer tool by [NUT] after you rooted?
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
yep, followed it to the T step by step, had supersu installed on the 4.3 update and it was working properly with busybox and other root only modifications, i could even drop stuff into /system with no reboots or crashes
[Sony Xperia M] the gladiator:
Are you sure ? The other file in the same location (buil.prop) has rw-r--r-- (b.t.w. you mention 8 characters rather than 9)

Are you sure ? The other files in the same folder have rwxr-xr-x

Thanks for double checking, I was astonished when I installed the mod and I've seen installed apps to disappear!

I really appreciate the never ending support you're giving everywhere to the community.
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Hey buddy, for your first question, i changed the permissions to nine characters, and yes i am sure it is like that.

And for your second question, yes i am sure, the permissions are like that also

And by thw way, thanks for the compliment bro, i really appreciate it.
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
Where do i actually copy the magicbuild.prop and the delete_conflicted scripts to? obviousy i know where the others go as theyre in the right folders but those two are just there with no directories:confused:
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Oh, you place them two on the root of your phone, like before you open the system file. Look at the screenshot.

See thats where the system folder is, it should be in the same place as that folder, not in it.

Look, among these files.

And dont forget to set the permissions
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
Awesome thanks sooo much for your quick help, i probably sound like a right noob but honestly im not :laugh:

im gonna copy them all to the right folders now hopefully with no problems :good:
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Alright bro, lol, i ain't judging you. Good luck with that. Please do tell if it worked
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
ahhh FFS! *every time* i try to edit the permissions or try to copy them over to the folder root explorer just freezes! :mad:

im using both root browser and root explorer to try get one of them to work but root browser doesnt save the permissions when i edit them and root explorer just crashes completely.

ive just RE done the superuser mod to make sure its working and everything is going fine.

would it make more sense for me to just push them via ADB?? this seems like a simpler solution to a seriously unnecessarily stressful problem

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

oh dear....

seems ive lost proper root access again :mad::confused:

how has this even happend? i think it might be the superusermod :confused:

i definitely 100% had full root
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Hmm, you seem to have a weird case. If you have full root, you should be able to do whatever you want. See here is the thing, if you pish them through adb, would you be able to change the permissions? If you can, then go ahead. but if you cant, i would reconsider that option.
[Sony Xperia M] mindyabiznis:
yeah i definitely do ive been using root checker on the playstore throughout each mod/installation just to check if everythings ok and now busybox has uninstalled itself and its telling me i dont have root access

i did try pushing through ADB but it didnt even copy the first script file... SMH

im gonna give it one more try tomorrow or something and then im just gonna get the z1 compact, this Xperia M has been a FU****G nightmare.

and theres me thinkin i was on to a winner, a cheap, light, 4" screened, dual core, half decent camera phone, that i could performance mod the hell out of... and i cant even maintain proper ROOT ACCESS!?!? :eek::confused::mad:

thanks anyway for your help though mate:good:
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Well good luck mate on the z1, hope that will be a more comfortable phine for you. Unfortunately im still stuck with this xperia m. Oh well. Have a good one bro.:)

If this script works for Cm11 based kitkat 4.4.3?

It works perfectly

Does this work with ART enabled?

I've just installed this script over an ART enabled CM11 installation on a Xperia M/Nicki 1905. It is booting now and "optimising apps" - I suspect it's recompiling all the apps for ART. Will it do dhis on every boot?

no. it only happens when you change the cache type from dalvik to art or vica versa.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amolsawant1989:
:good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

Most cell phone batteries are Lithium Ion now.

Although constant charging cannot hurt, it looks like you may want to periodically run the battery all the way down so the digital circuits can correctly calibrate:

Although lithium-ion is memory-free in terms of performance deterioration, batteries with fuel gauges exhibit what engineers refer to as "digital memory". Short discharges with subsequent recharges do not provide the periodic calibration needed to synchronize the fuel gauge with the battery's state-of-charge. A deliberate full discharge and recharge every 30 charges corrects this problem. Letting the battery run down to the cut-off point in the equipment will do this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate.

As for battery life, temperature is apparently a factor -- the hotter the environment, the more capacity loss over time. And storing the battery at 100% charge is actually unhealthy for Lithium Ion batteries!

Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life in a laptop is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns.

Batteries with fuel gauge (laptops) should be calibrated by applying a deliberate full discharge once every 30 charges. Running the pack down in the equipment does this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate and in some cases cut off the device prematurely.

Keep the lithium-ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level.

Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. (Some laptop manufacturers are concerned about dust and moisture accumulating inside the battery casing.)

Avoid purchasing spare lithium-ion batteries for later use. Observe manufacturing dates. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices.

If you have a spare lithium-ion battery, use one to the fullest and keep the other cool by placing it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the battery. For best results, store the battery at 40% state-of-charge.

Just bought an unlock code off eBay and tried to enter it. Said the phone was permanently locked and couldn't be unlocked in the network unlock menu. Frustrated I started googling and looking at modded efs to bypass the lock to let me enter unlock code...

As a last ditch idea tried a Vodafone sim... Already unlocked...

Moral of the story if you have bought the phone through a third party seller check it before wasting a pound on a code you don't need!

Some info about my phone

IPL 1.08

SPL 1.08

GSM 01.09.10

OS 1.8.10.2

I would like to upgrade to the latest i-mate rom ( i think ) i don't know any differences with any other roms etc... ive been looking on the other threads maybe if my question has been answered with someone else... i can get pointed to a proper thread, i just want to know what steps i should take to upgrade my rom, i dont wanna lose any data, not that i have much id like to backup my contacts basically thats the most important, also.. since i dont have money for a 128 card right now would it be possible to load someone elses backed up tmobile mda rom ? if they zipped it up and sent it so i can restore it when i get a msd card.. any help is greatly appreciated , thanks in advance.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] molski:
Copy your contacts by ActiveSyncing them to a PC, or copy your pim.vol (in the root of your Device) to your SD card and upgrade it.

Good luck.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sintax:
Ahhh

Ah okay ;) now... which rom should I try out first ? and... don't i need to CID unlock it? i'm trying to find a good thread on the upgrade procedures and the best rom to try first.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] molski:
Best rom...best rom..... the Rom you choose is a personal choice (and yes, you need to CID unlock first IF you want to upgrade to a Rom of another manufacturer, if you have lets say T-Mobile and you want to upgrade to another T-Mobile Rom, you don't have to CID unlock your Wizard).

I like the Qtek Roms myself, but then again, I only use Dutch Roms, not WWE (WorldWideEnglish) Roms, so I have to make a choice between T-Mobile or Qtek and then the choice is simple in my opinion ;)

If you don't know anything about upgrading, my opinion is, try soms official Roms first, then you know what the deal is and then you can make a choice if you maybe want to use a customized Rom like the Mr. Clean Roms for example.

Regards,

Molski

p.s. There are A LOT of threads about upgrading.
