init.d tweaks in build.prop won't work since, I believe, later Jelly Bean or Kit Kat (when SElinux was put into android's kernel). Sepolicy usually requires boot.img patches, even in a lot of custom roms. I'm running LOS 14.1, and init.d didn't work even tho the directory was there. Sepolicy is enforcing by the time build.prop (Android system) is booted, so init.d is passed up. I've used su.d scripts instead on my stock mtk to setenforce=0 for Viper to work on boot, but had to install Supersu in /system to do that. Phone was chinese so it wouldn't pass safety-net outta the box, anyway, so no loss. I've read that addon.d scripts also work, which a couple zips I flashed via TWRP defaulted to. Check out the threads on Init.d Injector by [MENTION=6037748]Zackptg5[/MENTION], tho. It's a magisk module, but made with the Unity template, so it works with most root-solutions, except cm/los 14.1's su, which some twrp-terminal sorcery fixed, but the injector's been updated since. That thread will at least give you an idea of what Android devs gotta face when doing the "universal" mods we demand. :)

Did you remember to set permissions to 0644? Your phone will do that if buid.prop is still mounted rw. I noticed your build.prop also said "**.dmverity.***=true", and a few other contradictory props, but I'm just a dumb marine and samsungs are a weird breed

This post was meant for whom you were responding to, not you, [MENTION=6476895]bravonova[/MENTION]. My bad, i'm a poor multitasker.

Build.Prop and VOLUME STEPS

Hi,

I've added these two reknown lines to my LOS 16 build.prop, and they work :

ro.config.media_vol_steps=50

ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps=30

These are to make the Volume Steps of media playback and phone call volume more dense and accurate.

HOWEVER I'm looking for the NOTIFICATION SOUND Volume Steps in build.prop : I tried ro.config.vc_notify_vol_steps , ro.config.notifications_vol_steps , ro.config.notification_vol_steps , ro.config.notify_vol_steps but they do not work. Does anyone know the notification sound volume steps setting in build.prop ?

Thank you very much!

If you have your current custom ROM's build.prop. Copy it to phone using above command.
[Android General] rskstier:
Can you explain me about the adb ?
[Android General] bravonova:
Do one thing, if you are able to boot in recovery then flash the ROM again which you were using. :)
[Android General] rskstier:
Okay that's a good idea. I'll keep you informed. May take some time. I want to thank you very much for all the tips and time you spondeerd to my questions.

[Android General] DallasCZ:
Hello, nice collection of tweaks indeed. Just curious how do you know that all these tweaks are working for example on MM ROMS?

SOme of them ar eform KITKAT time and CM ROMS so i don´t know if it will be working on MM.

Is there a way how to know if a example build.prop tweak "ro.lge.proximity.delay=25" and "mot.proximity.delay=25" will work on my device since i dont have any issue with that and i assume the mot and lge reffers to motorola and LG devices.
[Android General] Adzkii:
Same question in my mind too, explanations would be great[emoji14]Since some of these tweaks are from kitkat.

Sent from my device.
[Android General] bravonova:
No. They are not referring to LG or Motorola devices. :) And they do work with MM ROMs. I have used them and checked on CM 13 as well as RR v5.7.2 :)

Excellent work Mate.

Thanks you for your hard work.

Really very informative thread.

Just for curiosity.

If I change the device default lcd density (i.e if any device has default lcd density is 320, and I change it to 480 - ro.sf.lcd_density= 320 to ro.sf.lcd_density=480), what will happen ? Will it effect battery life or somthing else ?

Thank you once again.

Changing LCD values may not drain battery.

Well, I can't be *sure* what will happen, but I'm almost certain nothing will happen. But...

Always have a backup!

And also if you want to remove the tweaks just delete the ones you added.

To separate them from your stock build.prop just do this:

#CUSTOM TWEAKS

The # symbol makes the line just like plain old text, and it will not be interoperated as a build.prop. ;)
