Nokia 14 Xml File Repack -
Open the XML file in Notepad++. For example, to increase Bluetooth visibility timeout from 60 to 300 seconds, change:
<timeout>60</timeout>
to:
<timeout>300</timeout>
Crucially: Do not change the XML declaration line (<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>). Do not add comments or extra whitespace unless you recalculate the checksum.
If you just need to change one or two settings, you might not need a full repack: nokia 14 xml file repack
To apply this "repack" to a Nokia device, you generally cannot just copy the file. You must modify the system image.

./repackimg.sh
Flash:
Flash the resulting image-new.img to the device using a tool like SP Flash Tool (for MTK Nokias) or Odin/fastboot if supported.
Via Magisk Module (safest):
Create /data/adb/modules/mymod/system/etc/device_features/XXX.xml
Reboot → Magisk overlays original file. Open the XML file in Notepad++
Via adb root:
adb push XXX.xml /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/XXX.xml /system/etc/device_features/XXX.xml
chmod 644 /system/etc/device_features/XXX.xml
reboot
Via custom recovery (TWRP):
apktool d SystemUI.apk
# Edit res/values/config.xml
apktool b SystemUI -o modified-SystemUI.apk
Many Nokia XML files are not plaintext but lightly encrypted or encoded (e.g., using a simple XOR or base64 with header). Tools like Nokia XML Decoder or custom Python scripts can transform them into editable UTF-8 XML. to:
<timeout>300</timeout>
