CPU during charging

Hi,

I apologize very much, but I read this thread all the time and I think that this answer isn't present here yet :)

Has somebody some tip to charge the phone by USB cable from NB or PC? My CPU is on 100% all the time I'm charging the phone and so the phone is discharging instead of charging (the consumption is higher than charging). If I charge it from 220V plug, there is no problem.

Can yomebody help me? Thanks.

Hi there Bruno. My V970M is running your ROM, recovery and internal memory hack smoothly. However, everytime I reboot, the clock widget from Beautiful Widgets disapppears and I have to create it again. I also have to reset the Keyboard Backlight Control app (for the capacitive button backlighting) after every reboot. Do you know what could be causing such odd problem?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
That is most likely because you have installed those widgets on the sdcard. Move it to the internal memory and that should not happen. ;)

couldn't install on usb or sd card

Hi Bruno,

Thank you for the good working Rom, the speed feels faster than the 4.0.4 etotalk rom.

I am having a weird problem with installing a hotel chain app (Clubcarlson)

On 4.0.4 worked well, but on your Rom, I am getting the following message: "couldn't install on usb or sd card".

I had no problem with any other app.

Please advice

Thanks

Re: [ROM][02-03-2013] ZTE V970 (MT6577) custom ROMs (ICS / JB)

I have no advice but have encountered the same problem with this particular application, it runs fine on my Nexus 7 so i did not pursue it. It did run fine on 4.0.4 though.
[ZTE Grand X V970] paraiso-san:
A noobish question: I have two sim cards, but I only really use one. Is the battery drain the same if I put only one sim card on the phone and if I put two, but disable the second? I'm asking because if I go for the second option, I don't get that "2nd sim card not found" error in the startup (and, of course, I have the option to turn the other on if I need it).

So, does it drain more battery with two sims but one disabled than with one sim and the other sim slot empty, or it's the same?
[ZTE Grand X V970] paraiso-san:
I bought a V970M from an eBay UK seller and it came with Android 4.0.4 and 512Mb of RAM (both Antutu and the android tasker showed a total of aprox. 470Mb of memory); however, after flashing your rom, it magically appeared with 1Gb of RAM (Antutu and Android Tuner showing a total of 980Mb of RAM). Could it be that those indonesian phones with 512Mb of RAM have in reality 1Gb of RAM and the stock roms somehow limit it to half, and the other half could be "unlocked" with your rom? I know how odd this sounds, but that's what happened to me. It also identifies itself as a V970 while with the original rom it identified as a V970M.

Other question: if needed (for instance, to fully reset my phone, or if it gets soft-bricked and I can't flash anything from the recovery), can I flash the stock rom you have in the first post with SP tools in my phone? Is it safe? I can't seem to find the an original firmware flashable by SP Tools for the V970M.

This is my original firmware code:
[ZTE Grand X V970] paraiso-san:
Thank you. But is there anything that can be flashed with SP Tools? In case I soft-brick the phone or need to reset it completely (or reinstall the stock recovery, and so on).

Hi Bruno again about Ingress on JB the bugs are even more now on new update on Ingress , now gps(my position) get stuck dont move along whit the same grafich bug on the portals .

Realy sad cuz i love the JB :( the rom its great but i play ingress alot so i need game running well .
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I honestly don't know how that happened in your case. What I know is that the same ROM on a V970M Indonesian phone shows 512 MB of RAM while flashed into V970 Chinese phones indeed shows 1 GB of RAM... that is without modifying anything at all.

For that, you have the original Chinese ROM (look into post #3 of this thread). But as your phone came with a slightly different ROM, I advise you not to flash preloader and DSP_BL... or maybe you did it already, when flashing the extended memory mod files. :p
[ZTE Grand X V970] avim:
Hi,

After flashing the Rom I have a problem with Skype. I am able to hear the call whether on speaker or handset but the other side is not able to hear me in both. I tried the Echo/Sound test service of Skype and have the same issue.

Does anyone else experience this?

Please advice
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Your problem did not appear after installing the new ROM. The official Skype doesn't work properly in MediaTek smartphones. In order to overcome that problem, you should install a modded version of Skype which is found here. To apply the fix just go to Advanced settings / Sound settings and enable Use MODE_IN_CALL option
[ZTE Grand X V970] avim:

There are PCs and laptops which do do not supply enough current (the max per spec is 500-800 mA but there is no minimum). Also your phone may consume more than the average.

Try another USB socket, replace the cable and/or use a short one. I know that while using GPS and navigation programs the charging from the car is just enough to keep the battery unchanged, so try to economize.

I recently bought a V970 because I lost the power button of my loved Lenovo A650. After a few days I’m quite happy with my new V970 and the JB V1.1R2MOD Rom…everything works smooth. Great job Bruno. I just donated ;)

Unfortunately the standard ZTE calendar APP is not working (always crashes if I want to open a calendar item)…downloaded google calendar from play store and it works fine …so no problem for me. It is really cool that I can Use 3G on SIM2…sometimes I really need this option…

Compared to my old Lenovo I´m missing two things:

Battery: it is okay but I really need a little more juice…probably the battery will get a little better within the next days…Lenovo had 2000mAh and this was perfect. I’m a heavy user (whole business day + in the evening music player)…I heard about an alternative ZTE battery with around 1800mAh? Anyone knows where to buy it?

I like to pull down the notification bar if the screen is still locked…just to check a few things or to switch data transmission. With Lenovo this works without problems. In case of ZTE I have to unlock it first. So I have to use widget locker in order to enable the notification bar while on lock screen. While running widgetlocker the(lock)screen sometimes does not react (cannot unlock because screen does not react)…than I have to lock and unlock again by using the power button…anyone an idea? Another APP is welcome, too…

In the near feature I will buy another dualsim phone (quad core, big battery, 3G on both sim-cards, and the most important thing: a good rom cooker ;)) …I’m not sure about which one to buy..ZTE V789, Lenovo K5, ZOPO ZP810 or TCL P600…probably I should not discuss this here :-/

Kind regards

Google Calendar was available for selection under AROMA installer. You could have installed it in the first place when the ROM was installed.

Obviously, ZTE V970 will be outdated soon, due to the new upcoming phones based on MT6589. I'm also looking for the next phone, but I will probably stick to a branded phone... maybe ZTE V987.

and is it bug free (skype works fine ? , no calendar issues , stock launcher , etc)

V3.1MOD (27-12-2012) ???

is it this slugish when you scrol down the notifications bar (from 5:35 minute)

[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I think that no one has ever experienced that problem. I have noticed that your phone is a TMN Smart A18, which doesn't have the exact same specifications as ZTE V970. There are some reports that V970 custom ROMs are compatible, although I don't know if issues like that may arrise. From what I could see from the video, it seems that you don't have the latest custom ROM installed. Try doing a factory reset or re-installing the ROM (clearing all userdata).

Unfortunately that's very likely to be happening. :mad: I feel bad about that because people who receive the phone in that condition don't really value my work because there's no comparison to be done with a previous stock or crooked ROM.

The latest ICS-based custom ROM is V3.1MOD, of course. Version history on the first post of this thread is always up-to-date. ;)
[ZTE Grand X V970] mite_jan:
so in ICS the lag is there when scrolling notification bar?
[ZTE Grand X V970] tlac:

but probably the touch panel is wrong

Why don't you try to revert to stock ROM? It is available for download from ZTE Portugal support website. If that still happens then it can be a hardware issue.

Well, I can say that this issue doesn't happen only on my custom ROM (or in the stock one, of course), but also in ROMs for other MTK based devices.

Hi,

I have the same issue with my V970. What did you do before this happened? I suspect the touchscreen got damaged while holding the phone in my hand, charger was plugged and back cover down.. Tried to flash original fw, but it didn't help. I doubt it's software fault. Can anyone comment on this? I would like to avoid the same happens again..

Thanks
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I highly doubt it is a software fault. As I said, the problem seems to be hardware related because even after restoring the official ROM the issue persists. In your case, being a V970, it is much harder because most probably you have to send the phone back to China. :rolleyes:
[ZTE Grand X V970] eddie-lu:
Hi Bruno,

after flashing internal memory re-partition (running JB 4.1 ) is it necessary to install disable_internal_sdcard.zip? In your comment from 17-12-2012 you are talking about ICSv3,0 and higher, and it is not clear if it concerns JB 4.1 v1.1R2? I would guess so... But your answer would be straightforward :)
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
That is only applicable to ICS. Installing the file in JB won't work and is not advisable at all!

In order to complete that process, you have to re-install JB custom ROM. During the installation process, the script will detect if whether or not memory was repartioned and disable internal sdcard accordingly.

[ZTE Grand X V970] paraiso-san:
The original rom that came with my phone had this build number: ZTE-SEA-QB18D-P175A20V1.0.0

What does that mean? It's an unbranded ZTE for South East Asia? Any idea where I can find this original firmware flashable by SP Tools in the event of something going wrong and having to return it to warranty? Would be the greatest help!

On other hand, here stands proof of the weirdest thing ever happened to me since I deal with android flashing and custom roms... You mentioned cases where the same ROM, on different phones, would show different RAM values; here it was the other way around: same phone, different ROM, the memory went from 512mb (472mb reported) to 1Gb (980mb reported). I can't explain this, but I'm glad it happened, there is indeed a difference while multitasking between 512mb and 1gb :D
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:

Impossible man, gotta ask ZTE to release the kernel source for this device so we can mod it. There have been some work done on a similar device but nothing flashable yet.
