[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheeWolf:
Hi,

I come from the S1, where it was recommeded (but not mandatory though) to flash stock 3 files + pit file with Odin before flashing a different ROM. I just wanted to know if it is also recommended to flash stock in the N4 before flashing a different ROM.

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Ususaly not, just wipe cache and dalvik cache, do a data/factory format and wipe system in mounts and storage and then flash the rom, That should be good. Also see you have the latest bootloader installed from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2147194 .
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
Just wipe data for the first flash and in all honesty I don't think you ever really need to full wipe again. On my old HD2 I 'dirty' flashed everything without issues, and I've flashed a couple of ROMs this way on my N4 and haven't faced problems. IMO wiping only cache and dalvik is enough.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheeWolf:
Thanks guys.

gee2012, I upgraded to 4.2.2 when I was in stock. that means I have the latest bootloader, right?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Yes you have, happy flashing ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksavai:
I too come from SGS1. that was very different scenario. Problem there was company never gave official version after 4.0 ( I think) thats why above that any version needed to flash stock and dirty flash ROM for you to keep your IMEI and other important files.

Now N4 dont have that problem, welcome to freedom. you already are on 4.2.2 so just flash as instructed by particular rom (mostly wipe everything 1st after only cache and delvik cache)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheeWolf:
Just a theoretical question, as said I have the latest bootloader. Suppose I want to flash a ROM based on 4.2.1, will that be a problem?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s3rv1cet3ch:
Keep in mind if you unlock the bootloader it will wipe everything you have on the phone saved to memory.

If you have 4.2.2 and flash a 4.2.1 rom you need to flash the .38 radio

[Tutorial] [V20x] Disable / Adjust Thermal Protection for Slow AC Charge & Tegra 3

Part 1 - Disabling Thermal Protect during Charging that will result in Slow Charge (USB Current) issue on AC supply

Our LG 4X has an in built function to restrict heat build-up during AC charge, when the phone is already warm after intensive use.

Unrestricted heat build-up will potentially result in damaging chips.

But sometimes even when the use isn't highly intensive under cool envoirment factor the current is still restricted by this somewhat over-sensitive and unadjustable feature. Consequentially when user is using the phone for long duration apps (ie watching movie) while phone is under AC outlet charge battery will still run out, albeit at a slower pace.

Below is the steps to disable this function:

Dial 3845#*880# to enter hidden menu (do not press the green dial button!)

Navigate to 'Module Test'

Navigate to 'Charging Test'

Tick 'Unlimited temperature charging'

Exit Hidden Menu

Charge using AC outlet

If charging cable was already plugged in and in USB current, disconnect and reconnect to see result

Only works on V20x Jellybean ROMs.

Phone restart will return this function to its normal state.

Part 2 - Disable / adjust Tegra auto throttling for thermal protection that will result in game lags during high chip temperature

Besides protecting our devices by controlling heat from charging current, 4x HD also has an inbuilt mechanism to restrict overheating of the chip during intense 3D gaming or graphic heavy applications.

When the heat is detected to have reached a certain level, this mechanism automatically scales down the CPU to prevent anymore excessive heat from being produce. However, scaling down the CPU will also produce significant lag for the user application.

To adjust this function, user will have to follow the guide below:

To adjust this function, user will have to follow the guide below:

Device Requirement: Root, Root capable file browser

Navigate to directory /d/tegra_thermal

Open-for-edit temp_throttle. Set to user preference, typically above 65000

Save

Do the same for temp_throttle_skin

Save

You are now good to go

Settings will revert after phone reboot.

Thanks alekthefirst for his contribution here
[LG Optimus 4X HD] someth1ng:
I just changed it and it seems to be okay - I'll report back soon.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
i like to take screenshot that it works but how do i take screenshot of heat? lol?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
This should show that my phone doesn't switch to USB current when the heat is high

Red = Temperature

White = Percentage

Green = Voltage

Botton yellow bar = charge status

White bar = display on
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ljubisa_sk:
:):):):):):):)

So thanks for this hint, and bacon joke ;) After all this is MultiPurpose device :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] DarkFantasy6:
is it possible to just increase the temperature ? :) i think the temperatur protection is very low . Because on v10h never had this prob...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
V20B has significantly increased thermal protection activation temperature. To less aggressive user its presense now will hardly be felt.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
updated for official V20 release
[LG Optimus 4X HD] skryptus:
Do you guys think there's any way to set this, or the changes this implements (it must be changing something, probably in files), into a script or something that could be executed at will (or maybe even through a tool like Tasker)?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
on theory there's a file somewhere, but where is it?:)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Bogeyof:
The files for that are named temp_shutdown, temp_throttle and temp_throttle_skin found in /d/tegra_thermal, u can change the values, but next boot overrides. Someone could make a script for Script-Manager, which run after boot and set the values new, or sets high and low via widgets (Script-Manager can create widgts I think)...

U have to change the values to about 71000 or more, shutdown should be left as 90000 (setttings in V20a)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
doesn't work on charging thermal protection. these settings are for tegra 3's thermal protection by controlling throttle when the heat becomes too high.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Bogeyof:
I thought we talk about both, disable thermal protection of charging (done via hidden menu) and disable thermal protection (down throttling) on overheating, ur right, thats for more cpu power / less throttling...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
ah right, sorry i didn't catch that.

i can add this topic to first post. thanks
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
updated first post in tegra thermal protection.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Emmanuel2000:
i tested

I tested this no change at all as far as cpu mhz cpu still throttles to 1000mhz to one core when playing anything even the gba emulator it starts fine dual core 1400mhz then when it throttles to 10000mhz one core it lags madly after playing for 5 minutes i thought this would work.

edited thermal-throttle to 80000 i assume 80c

thermal skin to 55000 maybe 55c for outer layer of the phone so your skin won't burn.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] sachinpatl:
There are files for each group of two cores under

d\tegra_throtle

listed as

throtle_table0

throtle_table1

but i dont understand how they work

hope you can....!

good luck.......
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
As i am frustrated with this issue ( brightness falls to 87% and then to 70% after a 10 minutes video playback ) and i am not rooted can you guys confirm that the trick ( Part2) works ?

I ask this because i didn't want to root my phone and this procedure demands root.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
for the tegra thermal adjustment you have to be rooted.

btw there's no other phone with easier and safer root method than 4x. and androids are meant to be rooted ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
I rooted my phone, edited and saved the 2 files at 85000 each.During the procedure my temperature had already dropped to 87% due to high temperature and couldn't go up after the edit of the 2 files.Then i waited for phone to get colder and then i watched a 20 minutes youtube video on full screen and with 100% brightness.The brightness didn't fall !!!!

Thanks a lot for the guide !!!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Kyrlan:
So now you don't have the temperature problems? I have the same problem.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
When i played the 20 minutes video the temperature didn't fall.After another 10 minutes of app installations ( 30 minutes total time of heavy use ) the temperature dropped to 87%.I ll set the numbers to 100000 for each file instead of 85000 to see what if i can extend further more the durtation of the 100% brightness.

In other words:

->Without this trick the brightness was falling to 87% after a video playback of 10 minutes.

->With this trick the brightness message appeared after 30 minutes of heavy use ( video playback 20 minutes + 10 minutes app installations from google play )

Tomorrow i will test the new settings at 100000.:)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Kyrlan:
Okay, I will try this very soon.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] future81:
what was original values on 20a - on 20c its 90000 shutdown 71000 throttle 43000 skin throttle
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
The same numbers are for 20A. I changed the throttle from 71000 to 95000 and the skin from 43000 to 65000 and everything is great regarding the brightness message.:good:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
The real solution to the problem must be the file called thermald ( Thermal Deamon ) which is located in /system/bin.

I opened the file and took a screen shot :

If i was a programmer i would know how to teak this file and the files to which it corresponds in sys/class.I hope that a programmer is paying attention to this thread.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Wodzian:
So does this part 2 solves problem with throttling while gaming? I get annoying lags in whatever game I throw at my LG, even simple games like Benji Bannanas lag after few minutes of playing...

Could someone say If this simple change in files work? Thanks in advance.

Hey All The

Developers/Themers/Contributors

n all those who have made possible what our MDPi phones are today....Sony's new flagship phone Xperia Z has been launched in India! But due to some reasons I can't buy it....:crying: So I was wondering that what all features of the Z can be ported to our Phones

1.Exmor sensor & Touch focus!

2.HDR Technology

3.Burst Mode

4.Z framework (xNXT ROM does has one similar)

5.Display Calibration Software

6.Unmatched Music Quality

7.Android's Project Butter(hopefully)

8.Chrome browser(integrated)

9. Various Camera Effects

10.Radio App(though i seldom use it)

11.Media Apps (Xperia Z-dedicated)

12.NFC (if possible)

13.MirrorLink

14.Anything U think is possible..............

I know there are few things available out there individually but i would love to have it bundled in a ZIP.....Thanks In advance...!:)

Kindly reply with whats possible out of these things..

[Acer Iconia A500] jheller:
incompatible recovery.img?

Can't mount cache errors can be caused by an incorrect recovery.fstab file, which basically means the incorrect mount points are used. Had that issue on my phone trying to install CWM recovery, but it was incompatible with my phone giving the same errors you described. You'll probably have to find a good recovery.img, and test if it's working. You can fastboot boot recovery.img without flasing as well.

By the way, to really dig into this problem, it's possible to extract the recovery.fstab file from the recovery.img file you're using, and see if this matches your /proc/emmc.

Hello All,

Something freaky just happend. I was reading a thread about how someone was unable to access his Bootloader after a WM 2003 install and decided to go into Bootloader mode. No problems there, so I did a soft reset to get out of Bootloader mode and Boom! 'Tap here to set up your device' displayed amid the 'Bliss' background.

I had to setup the device from scratch. Luckily not all that much loss of software and I only lost one appointment which I still remember. Can you guys with WM 2003 try it and let me know your results? Please backup your data first!
