I tried to add some string between strings. I want to add "themev2" to

<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI></SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI>

so that the result is

<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI>themev2</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI>

I tried to use

lama="<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI></SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI>"
baru="<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI>themev2</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_CHANGEABLE_UI>
sed -i 's/$lama/$baru/g' /system/etc/floating_feature.xml;

But it does not work :(

if you're playing with `xml`, then use `xmlstarlet` which is the right tool for the job – sjsam Jan 29 '18 at 12:43
you will have to use a backslash when using sed with special characters like < and >. So use \< and \> instead of directly putting the angle brackets. – Lohit Gupta Jan 29 '18 at 12:52
