Chuwi Vi7 Battery Upgrade

Chuwi Vi7 Battery Replacement

==========================

Existing battery is 3.3 mm thick and measures 9 x 7 cm.

Max available additional thickness, 3.3 mm (pound coins on top of existing battery).

Absolute max thickness of new battery must be < 6.6 mm. Recommend 6 mm to be safe.

Max length 100 mm

Max width 75 mm

Seller on Aliexpress was "ben zhang" , I think the item number must be 32305149726, because it's the only number in the items URL. I cannot paste a URL yet because I have only written a few posts.

You could also find the item by searching for "New Battery 5500mAH Li-ion Tablet" , that text appears in the title on AliExpress. It may take 3 - 4 weeks to arrive, so be patient. At under £6 it's very reasonable, though might not be quite as high a capacity as 5500mAh. I'm not sure how they test these batteries, but I think the capacity is actually approx. 4000mAh, but still a good improvement. Of course the stock battery may also be overstated at 2500mAh.

NOTE:

The Chuwi Vi7 has a little speaker holder, which gets in the way of the new battery. The speaker holder is largely redundant anyway, so I took it out. The speaker is magnetic, and sticks to the metal plate behind the battery. There's no way the battery will slip, unless the phone was given a severe shock - under such circumstances, a slipping speaker would be the least of your problems. Before putting the back cover on again, make sure you align the speaker with the speaker grill on the back cover. A stiff guitar plectrum is ideal for removing the back cover.

My Chuwi vi7 has Android 5.1.1 installed. Kernel version is 3.14.0 built Fri 24th July 2015. I can't see any ROM number like you mentioned above. What date was that build released ? When I check for a wireless update, it says my device is up to date. I have no idea whether such things would work across continents - I'm based in the U.K.

Hi Colin,

Regarding the ROM, check the description on the Youtube video - the 1st link is where you can download the ROM, the 2nd is the Flash Tool and the 3rd is a Russian forum where there's a huge topic on Chuwi Vi7 (apparently, Russians like the tablet very much).

Following the instructions in the video I was able to install the ROM and observed that I can move apps to SD card. I don't have the tablet in my possession right now, but - as you can see from the video - it's a build dated September-2015...

Regarding the battery, thank you for the intel!

From the picture below (also found on a Russian site), I found out the type of the battery as being model '337095', which translates into the following size: 33mm x 70mm x 95mm (interesting, huh?!).

[IMG="Chuwi Vi7 Insides"]https://f-a.d-cd.net/5a03f0as-960.jpg[/IMG]

I found your battery as being model '407595', no longer on stock. But found a new one. Or one slightly bigger.

Thx!

Battery problem

Hello.

I have big battery problem on my Chuwi Vi7.

Tablet is 1 month old, all apps are stock.

Wi-fi, data, bluetooth, gps, synchronization is switched off.

Is this usage normal?

Is there any solution to impove battery life?
[Android General] colinalvin63:
Hi, it's good to hear that you found another suitable battery. The supplier of the one that I listed had another one rated at 5400mAh. I think it was the same size , but slightly heavier, but only by ~10 grams.

It's a shame the youtube video is in Russian. I'm not very confident about flashing my device, and could do with a few pointers from the video, but my Russian is non existent.

I haven't tested whether it's possible for me to move applications to my external SD card yet, but I will try soon. My problem lies with the size of the Data partition, which could be larger (if the Cache partition was smaller). There are also some instability problems with 3G phone calls - my device keeps crashing. It's okay for short calls, but seems to crash on longer ones - possibly it's connected to the battery going below a certain voltage ? At the time I had problems, I had Cleanmaster installed, so I suppose it may have been low battery detection in that app causing something to become unstable.

It's a real shame that Chuwi don't release an official update of the firmware that can be downloaded using wireless update. I have not heard of any official firmware being available.

Regards, Colin
[Android General] faraj4:
i received my vi7 and i have something to share about it :

1- charging battery with the original 5v,2A charger takes more than 3 hours from 0% to full , charging battery with xperia mini pro charger 5v,850mAh takes the same period , buttttt ,,,, battery drops slower and lasts longer .. dont ask me why , but it seems that the original charger is baaad

2- in-call volume is almost dead ... i cant understand what caller says even in quiet .. while speaker volume is pretty good .

3- MIC is bad too .. but i could manage that putting my mouth directly in front of the MIC .

4- CPU is limited to 900 mghz .. i dont understand that .. written on the box 1.2 mghz , but all cpu checkers say 900 ..

5- for deep sleep problem ... noticed that removing sd card solved the problem .

6- Launcher is very slow ... changing to any other Launcher makes the tab works quicker .

notice : the tab is on the latest firmware 1.1.3

[Android General] ursar:
- semi snippy performance

- touch screen presses need to be a little harder than usual

- stuttering while browsing Play Store menu

- display looks like an old CRT with burned out colours

- cameras are useless, microphone also

- battery drained out in 6 hours overnight with WiFi on ( power management ?! )

- CPU capped @ 900 Mhz

+ seems ok as an eBook reader

+ only $52
[Android General] UnableToResetOldProfile:
GPS test results please.

My Garmin was pinched and I plan on a 7" tablet as as replacement.
[Android General] marcelser:
I can not recommend this tablet at all. I'm using it for around half a year now. Even with newest ROM date 20160106.143654 it is eating slowsly my memory. I had 3 apps with a total of around 50MB installed. Then I wanted to update an app to newest released version. First thing is it tells me it needs 390MB which is ridicoulous in the first place because it's a weather forecast app and on my Galaxy S7 it's way not that big and the second thing is, it tells me I only have 32MB left after having 3 apps installed? I also tried uninstalling the app first to free up the memory it used an re-install it. Guess what, still only 32MB left after I uninstalled the previous version of the Weather app. So what the hell is going on with this device? This device belongs into the trash and nothing else, I already also had to reflash it because the ROM was somehow corrupted. The only thing it's good for is making trouble. Better buy cheap galaxy note or something and use that. I don't know how to get my memory back now and I really don't feel like resetting the whole device again!!!
[SlimRoms Feature Development] nxb:
I want to use SlimRoms or any custom roms in general but I'm on CDMA. I need to be able to use qualcomm tools and all that jazz to communicate with the baseband. My stock rom allows ##366633# and there it goes (DM-on/off). Is there a way to keep this style of functionality in slim rom or anything custom? Even an ADB command is fine... I don't program my phone often... but its not like GSM where you just swap cards.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] a.demarco:
So what gapps would I use for a 5.1.1 ROM on my SM-P600?

ARM?

ARM64?

x86?

Aroma?

Super?

Stock?

Mini?

Micro?

Nano?

Pico?

How do I know? Is there a link that I can read to learn?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Zionator:
That would depend on your rom and desire.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] a.demarco:
Can you explain, or provide a link I can read that explains the difference?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Orion116:
Arm is for most devices

Arm64 is for like the n9 and other 64bit devices

X86 is for devices with an Intel processor like the Zenfone 2

Aroma you can choose what gapps are installed.

Not sure what super is

Stock is like stock nexii devices most don't need every gapp installed

Mini is most common gapps like gmail, Hangouts, g+, play store and services, google search, G Drive, Gnow launcher, and chrome

Micro is basic gapps like gmail, hangouts, chrome, google search, and play store and services.

Nano is just play store and services and google search

Gapps included in packages very depending on maker.

I use banks gapps it is a nano gapps package. Most people use mini because it includes the most commonly used apps. Stock is for nexus devices only most times.

Hi,

I can't find a relevant thread for your device and rooting.

But you could try one of the generic root methods at the top of the list here, http://www.xda-developers.com/root/

And if nothing above helps, you could try asking for ideas here,

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] keithw1975:
I wanted to upgrade my phone to schaps wm6pro and from what I understand in order to do that I need to first put on HardSPL. I have been trying to follow his instructions at:

http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php...ask=view&id=52&Itemid=26&limit=1&limitstart=2

Nothing seems to work for me though. When I try to install HardSPL my phone goes to the 4-color screen but then I get a 260 connection error. I am using Vista but he had a section telling how to make Vista work properly and I followed those instructions but that didn't help either. I have made sure it isn't the cable or any physical problem so I am just baffled. As I understand it once I get HardSPL on I can then load Schaps wm6pro because it temporarily unlocks it or something like that.

I have SPL 2.03 on my phone now it says and I tried just installing Schaps wm6 but when I did it wouldn't auto detect the SPL and the only options it gave were 2.02/2.10 and some a lot earlier. It didn't list a 2.03.

Thanks,

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kh6rsb:
Aloha,

I have a Stock Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. I was sitting on my couch watching tv when my phone lit up. I thought I got a message, picked it up and it said the charger connected is not genuine and charging was stopped to protect the phone (not the exact message). It was not plugged into anything. I ignored the screen. After a few minutes the screen activated again but was completely black with the exception of a tiny "x" in the bottom left corner of the screen. A voice came on and said to connect my Gear VR and install the Gear VR app. I do not own a Gear VR and until this issue did not know what it was. There was nothing I could do to get out of the screen. I tried to restart the phone and couldn't. Finally did a hard reboot. After booting up like normal it was only a minute before it did the same thing again. It renders the phone completely useless. I booted into safe mode and uninstalled everything related to Gear VR. There were no less than 3 apps that I did not install (I am assuming Samsung pushed them to the phone). It seemed to do the trick but the next day the apps were back and it did it again. I called Verizon, they had no idea what to do. They had me wipe the phone. It worked for a day before doing it again. I called Samsung and they had never heard of the issue. I can't find a thread here of anyone else with the issue either, however there are at least 50 people on YouTube that have commented on the following video with the same issue.

Here is a video of the issue (not me but someone else with the same issue)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtdahXCetu4

Here is the deal... Samsung was unable to help. They sent me a new phone under warranty. Its been 2 weeks and now the new one is doing the same thing!!!! I don't understand how this is so persistent an issue and no one on xda has posted on it. To make things more complicated when I had the first issue I was able to go into safe mode then application manager and uninstall the apps. Now they are appearing are no longer appearing under "installed" apps, it appears with the system apps and cannot be uninstalled. I have never experienced anything like this.

So there it is, I am hoping the genius of XDA can help where Samsung has failed. Thank you in advance for all the great work you guys do!

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kh6rsb:
Work-around fix

I was able to find a work around for the problem. I am not satisfied considering Samsung has offered no solution and taken no responsibility. However, if you boot into safe mode by holding the volume down and power button at the same time you can use your phone. Then go to play store and download Package Disabler Pro. This will allow you to disable the faulty Samsung Gear VR bloatware apps without rooting. It's a $2 band-aid but the solution worked for me. It has the added bonus of getting rid of all the other bloatware they load on the phone too. NFL app, I am looking at you! There was someone who said they cleaned the usb port and that worked. It didn't work for me though. So far no help from the XDA community, what's up with that?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jir0x:
I already install the app... thanks for the tip... but my USB port is not responding.... no charging, some times show me power sharing USB mode on... no OTG working... do you have and a idea of how to clean it?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kh6rsb:
Use isopropyl alcohol to clean your electronics. Typically a q-tip works fine but it will not get into the port so you need to find something that will get in there. You might be able to use a cloth dipped in the alcohol and something narrow like the blunt end of a needle to work it in the port. Don't go too crazy. Rubbing the alcohol along the contacts is usually sufficient. Unless you got something corrosive on the contacts. Good luck to you.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taronaa:
my s6 edge was having the same problem every time i plug the cable in the micro usb port, samsug gear vr pops out and next black screen with x. additional problem 1. not able to recognize by pc 2. disconnecting while charging 3. fast charging is not working 4. sometimes it take 4 hrs to charge.

having this problem for almost a month now tried everything from hard reset , cleaning the micro usb port and i dont wanna wait for 3 months without a phone for the warranty

fortunately i was able to fix it by my self yesterday. the problem was the flat metal in the middle of the micro usb port was pushed downward (screen facing up) so i just needed to lift it up a bit by using some flat tweezers (pls be careful) and everything works fine now.. solved all the problems i mentioned above

work 100%
