For those of you looking to either Enable JIT or Disable JIT on a ROM that has JIT built in (or you've manually flashed it) and decided you wanted to remove it. I had a little trouble searching so I figured i'd post it with a simple logical subject line for future searching.


In the /System Directory you need to fine the file called:
build.prop

then edit the line:
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit

to say:
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast

and revsere it to enable it back (fast to jit)



You can do this a few ways.

1. use a file explorer on your phone (such as ES File Explorer) or Root Explorer find the direcotry /system make sure the drive is R/W (read/write).

Open the file, build.prop, then scroll down to the bottom of the file and it should be within the bottom 5 lines and do as stated above.

2. use adb commands, connect phone via USB.
adb remount
abd pull /system/build.prop build.prop

on your PC find this in your c:\"androidsdkdirecotryhere"\tools\ and edit with your favorite text editor.

then save the file, and go back to your cmd window and type
adb remount
abd pull /system/build.prop build.prop
