[ankitsid168]

Hi first of all thanks for building such a nice software 
Can anyone please tell me how can i edit build.prop in system...I tried rooting using apps but it failed.....i searched and found something terminal emulator enter "su" on this forum but it also didnt help....

To open up build.prop for editing, go to Dev tools -> Terminal emulator -> then enter the following commands (every newline = enter)

su
cd system
ls
(check if build.prop is in this directory, it should!)
vi build.prop

Edit away!

I haven't found a way to save yet, since pressing ESC to exit editing mode closes the terminal emulator… (@devs, what am I doing wrong?)

Currently build.prop is not writable. So you cannot edit it yet.

Can you tell us the use case for editing build.prop?

A wrong build.prop may cause the software does not boot. And the user may have to reinstall the software if that happens.
