There something to do in the build.prop file

There is .co.uk server... You must set it to .com server..

Because Steve is British

[Guest Kevon2]

yeah you will need root explorer. then go into the system folder a edit the build.prop file by changing the ro.product.locale.region=GB to ro.product.locale.region=US

There's no co.uk in there. There is, however, ro.product.locale.region=GB. Switch that to US.

I have no problems.

Localeswitch from the market works.

sorry, thats what I meant.

I knew that there is something with united kingdom :)

[Guest untrueparadox]

ro.product.locale.region=GB

set it =US

and theres another one for the date you should change, the dd-MM-YYYY, swap it to MM-dd-YYYY

also, if youre getting slow fixes on the gps, download the app FasterFix (requires root) and set the ntp server to north america.

[Guest SKYSCRAPER04]

yeah locale switch actually works and i thinks its better than editing on the build.prop

[Guest untrueparadox]

the build.prop edit makes the change permanent. this is what differentiates the UK and US software. if you factory reset, the change will be gone.

How do you set read write permissions

[Guest Fone_Fanatic]

How do you set read write permissions

In root explorer? just tap the "Mount R/W" on the top :unsure:

Also first thing i do after flashing steve's roms is edit the build.prop, i suggested it in his thread over at xda

Here are the edits i make:

ro.product.locale.region=GB to US

ro.com.android.dateformat=dd-MM-yyyy to MM-dd-yyyy

ro.build.oemversion.customer_conf=o2 to att

There were a couple more that'd i'd change in previous builds but looks like thats all for v1.5.3

also take note of what you change, for example if you edit ro.product.brand=dell to Dell swype will stop working.
