It could have been depending on how you accessed or copied the file the first time. The way I posted I did it in the other post was the easiest for me with editting on the phone. Maybe check your MyDocs folder and see if there is a systemui.xml file sitting in there and that could explain it. You could also give the full pathname to do it without changing directories. An example would be if you wanted to backup the systemui.xml file it would be: #>sudo gainroot <enter> #>cp /etc/systemui/systemui.xml /etc/systemui/systemui.xml.bak <enter> I did it the other way because it is less typing LOL.
