hello,

its not successful unless getprop of that key returns what is set...

btw, by any chance did u peeked at how much entries are there at
present?? (just run "getprop" from shell once)

setprop warnings on failure might be suppressed by default.
for eg, if u keep running below sequence in shell, eventually getprop
will stop displaying right value..

        $setprop key1 1;getprop key1
        $setprop key2 2;getprop key2
          ...
        $setprop key170 2;getprop key170
          ...

and ya, this issue have been discussed like 40 times already in this
very same forum,
