Does setting the property values for Dolby enable Dolby Audio & if so how do you edit the .xml in the etc folder. I don't understand . . .

you must download the xml file that one of the commenters provided and replace it

personally i haven't tried that, but my guess is that the file get's to big for it?

I see on the build prop. that it also has fm transmitter to false if i put true will it enable it will it work im on metro pcs

You can use it to transmit audio to your car radio.

Is there a way to disable scanning for other wifi APs once you connect to yours? I see my phone says "searching" every 7 seconds (I changed the wifi supplicant setting but it does nothing )

Thanks! Also, does anyone experience stuttering on their Stylo when wifi-calling someone? It doesn't matter if the other party is on T-Mo or at&t, the stutter happens to both outgoing and incoming voice streams

Go to settings/WiFi advance menu uncheck allow wifi.scanning n wifi notification off... that would not allow apps to still scan even settings its off

So how would I edit the file, trying to use the game tweak one and I have no idea what to do with it, do I just paste it in the file or what?

 

[Nickforever216]

You guys where talking earlier bout FM radio transmission. Where is it? I don't see it. Maybe someone can give me the prop?

 

[Nickforever216]

Anyone? Does the metro version have FM transmitter?

 

[Krlypumaa]

Anyone? Does the metro version have FM transmitter?

Yes... All you need to do its change value to true

It just some tweaks for better rendering of games. But again if you have a lot of app running in bkground this would not be useful.

Attention if you try this and end up with a brick or your device transforms and tries to destroy you; it's not my fault you did this not me. So just read all of this thread not just the O.P to get out of a bind if you reply with "the thread is too long i wont read it please help" don't expect anything short of "there's a search bar use it"

Here are some build.prop tweaks that i have tried out, there are plenty of ways to edit the build.prop file i personally use root browser (file explorer) which has a RB Text editor....

So the build prop editors on android tend to cut off the build.prop characters after a certain point so to get around this copy your build.prop from /system to your SD. Then transfer it from SD to the desktop of your computer after your comfortable with the edits; move the "original" one in the SD card to a new sub folder which probably want to name "original prop" then copy the edited one to the root of your SD then replace the one you have in /system then fix the permissions to 0644 and reboot and profit (you can use gedit on Ubuntu or Notepad++ on windows don't know about mac tho)

Does your phone tell you that you need to purchase an upgrade to your plan whenever you try and tether? Depending on your carrier, this line may help:

if you know of any more that work please comment them i will probably add them to the OP

Try this increases ur FP about 10 to 20% debug.egl.swapinterval=-60

 

[Krlypumaa]

That will set it to default in my case i rather use setting @ 80 a lot more clean n light

 

[Nickforever216]

Yes... All you need to do its change value to true

Ok found it thanks. Any apps that you know of that work? I tried few but no luck. I tried spirt2radiofm and said I needed kernel to support FM. I am on katana, maybe that makes it not work idk?

 

[bcrichster]

NextRadio

 

[Nickforever216]

NextRadio

Says its unavailable. Maybe the rom issue? Anyone try FM with katana?

 

[Blu8]

It's probably a DPI issue, GT changed the DPI to 304 in Katana, some apps won't work with that. Try changing it to stock which is 320 and it should work.

 

[Nickforever216]

Thanks, but nah that didn't do the fix. Katina rom must not support it for some reason.

K I try that

Y@ll need kernel to be enable for the fm radio plus framework... Now the transmitter is for car radio's technology were u use frequency to redirect your sound. Yhats why their invented Bluetooth... LOL now its some apps that letyou transmit sound for non Bluetooth radios throug freq.

 

[Nickforever216]

Dang that sucks. Few people mentioned it works idk. It's so dumb all phones don't have FM. I'd pay extra to have feature.
