Hi all.

I have few questions.

I created my first rom for MTCD_KD.

With first time unit has bootloop. I remove added apk's and unit starts properly but su module causes FC.

What can i do to properly implement super user in new rom ?

If i want do modify governor i must add line in int.rc.patch like this:

write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/scaling_governor "performance"

Right ?

And why on the new rom i can't install some apps from google play eg. Horizon Go? Google Play says that my device is not compatible wit this application.

Hello. If I point to a MTCB/MTCC ROM, will it work?

Anyone already tried this rom builder with the latest (21 Dec) JY base rom?

Any news from da_anton for new improvements in the builder tool?
[MTCD Software Development] solmer:
Hi, yeS I e compiled a ROM with the latest version 21 of December and the performance is almost the same, just one bug, my buttons on the steering wheel don't work sometimes....BTW I saw that v21 from December was removedf just a few days after published....Have they uploaded a new one? I'm planning to download it again and make another compilation
[MTCD Software Development] popeye70:
Yes, after removing the download link JY released a new one a few days ago

Hi !

I've compiled a SLIM (no bloatware apks) based on latest JY (12/21). It has only the basic things to get a great booting time (in my unit JY-UL135 Quadcore 18").

Here's the link if anybody wants to try it....

https://mega.nz/#!w0wG0LJb!wPegMCd9VbJCPJ345TxbXNdTtfP9mmUixpmKvWZPD6c

This is the latest mcu (I don't remember the version...could be 2.6) ****************MCU ONLY FOR JY DON'T FLASH ON OTHER DEVICES ***********************

[MTCD Software Development] realzoulou:
Tested successfully on JY-VL130. Thanks.

No measureable performance gain however...

Only one negative thing: the stock Music Player app is gone. I would not consider this app to be bloatware ;)

Btw. the MCU version is 2.06 and I would really love to see a pic of your 18 inch unit ;)
[MTCD Software Development] runningslow:
In case anyone in interested, I've tried running this on two different images I've gotten from Eonon for my GA2154 and it failed on both of them.
[MTCD Software Development] gunmoule:
How does it fail? Compiled ROM won't boot or boot loop? Or the tool just couldn't open the ROM?
[MTCD Software Development] solmer:
Hi hahahahah :o:o:o:o 18" !!!!! I mean 18" of booting time :D:D:D:D

You're right default music player is not bloatware but I use Poweramp.... :o
[MTCD Software Development] runningslow:
Tool wouldn't open the image. I don't remember the exact message, but I could run it again later and give that.
[MTCD Software Development] ninjaevox:
on remove_oem_apps.sh there is a problem, since other images don't have the Acrobat, the choices command fail. So I fixed this by commenting out the lines from choices until #fi. the thing is the if section if is not found it exit so it fails to continue. once I did this was able to compile MTCD_HA rom. Will do some more testing and confirm back that is the problem
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Successful on MTCD JY 21/12/2016 on modified 2gb RAM unit.

- Removed gmail, gcalendar, mtcipod.

- Integrated SU (this feature alone is gold!)

- Integrated FUSE.

Installed twice per FUSE instruction and had to hardware reset on 3rd boot to progress past boot logo.

Well done [MENTION=4263226]da_anton[/MENTION] and thank you for sharing the efforts of your prowess.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Eonon are a seller only so "GA2154" wont mean anything to anyone, your ll have to sate what MCU you have before anyone can help you (check settings/about screen). AFAIK Eonon dont sell MTCD units, I could be wrong, but if I m right and your unit is MTCB/C instead that may be why it didnt boot.

Unfortunately youve not posted for a while [MENTION=4263226]da_anton[/MENTION] so I fear youve given up on this, but I d be very interested in an MTCB/C version (so would the many,many MTCB/C owners out there), bearing in mind the similarity between MTCB/C and MTCD (MTCD tools works on MTCB/C for instance and both are RK3188) I was wondering if with a few minor alteration, maybe you could make an MTCB/C version of your great tool ?
[MTCD Software Development] runningslow:
Its absolutely a MTCD. It wasn't a problem of it not booting, its that the tool failed to work with then image file. I've since moved on and and just rooted the unit myself and made the tweaks as I needed manually.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Ok, was just a thought.

Whats very interesting though, is that you have a Klyde MTCD, thats the first KLD MTCD I ve heard of, most of us thought that KLD were not going down the MTCD route as they bought out MTCC units which are exclusive to them.
[MTCD Software Development] runningslow:
No worries. I'm happy to have provided you a mystery with my KLD unit. I can honestly say I have regrets buying this unit. While I've gotten it to a functional state that I'm happy with, these 1GB 5.1 MTCD units just aren't usable without heavily tweaking. If I had access to someone who could do the soldering, I'd do the RAM upgrade.

I should have done more research before buying it. I probably would have gotten one of the 2GB Intel units instead.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Nothing like hindsight, but it surely wouldnt be that hard to find somewhere who could solder for you ?
[MTCD Software Development] da_anton:
I have not given up the project but I'm very busy at work and need my unit in my car working. I don't have a separate test unit like malaysk. That's why there is no development at the moment.

But as you could see on the GitHub page I accept commits to improve the project. I'm sorry, but I have neither the time nor the unit to support MTCB/C. But any pull requests to the project are highly welcomed!

I ve just mounted an MTCB/C image (renamed as "dupdate") and it worked fine ! - Just the same as it does with an MTCD image. I also tried an MTCD RK3368/PX5 image, that worked too.

I ve not tried modding and repacking a ROM yet, but I think it may very well work (mainly cos theyre all Rockchip ROMs) I ll keep you all posted . . .
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Becareful with if using for PX5 - the SU option is what screwed my PX5 - wont go into recovery, boot from SDCARD and is stuck in bootloop. Suspect it will be OK with the right architecture SU.

[MENTION=456516]typos1[/MENTION] - would you do me a favour and create/test a recover SDCARD and see if you can boot OK from it, using [rockchip create upgrade disk tool v1.4]. On my bootlooping PX5 all I get is a blackscreen when trying to boot it or going into recovery.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
On my MTCB unit ? I did one the other day for an MTCD RK3188/PX3 unit and it worked, I used the SD firmware tool.
[MTCD Software Development] solmer:
Hi ! Recently I've swap my PX3 board for a PX5 board which runs Android 6.0...I wonder if could be possible to use the tool to get a "slim" ROM for my new board. I'm afraid of flashing a bad ROM on my PX5.....Has someone do it before? Could I inject root too?

Thanks in advance.
[MTCD Software Development] zerozoneice:
[MENTION=4263226]da_anton[/MENTION] does this work with modding Android 7.1.x for MTCD PX3 new revision boards?
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Have you tried?
[MTCD Software Development] zerozoneice:
i'm getting really sick and tired of such smart ass, RTFM-style, zero value replies.

why don't you take a wild guess, did i try or not?
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Yes, you can make your own ROM thats whats the app is for, you can inject root, not sure how to do it, proababy add a SU app and some code via terminal, I d google it.

Almost definitely - I ve used it for MTCB?C ROMs (although I have to renamed the image "dupdate.img" for ti to work, which is no bother), I ve read that it doesnt work on RK3368/PX5 SoMs, but pretty sure it ll work with RK3188/PX3 2Gb/N ones, give it a go.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
So, no? Looks like you missed the discussion of this topic in thr thread. Have you considered how it looks when others take the time to contribute against your one-liner zero effort, spoon-fed question?

After you've tested it out, let us know your experience as it may benefit many others.

As an FYI - becareful around the SU injection, suggest testing manual steps against the hard coded automation in this rom builder (from experience!)
[MTCD Software Development] Kayhan 17#:

[MTCD Software Development] ninjaevox:
any rom builder for px6?
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Try this one, it also works with RK3066 and RK3188 MTCB/C ROMs, so it ll probably work with MTCD/E RK3399/PX6 ROMs too.
[MTCD Software Development] ninjaevox:
can you post link? do you know if i can use it for the Tesla Style PX6?
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Probably not - the RK3399/PX6 is a processor used in loads of things, this ROM builder is specifically for MTC units, its unlikely to work on non MTC units, pretty sure there are no MTC Tesla style units.
[MTCD Software Development] ninjaevox:
Agree, and yes is not MTCD/E and sux because is harder to find a custom rom that works.

Hello XDA

There is something definately going on, when I click on "Screen" it just pops out reduce brightness....

Is there anything else I should be fixing or tweaking?

I am not rooted, thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] meyerweb:
You can't judge anything after only 40 minutes on battery. If you were using your phone during that time, and had the screen on, of course it's going to use most of the power. Charge your phone to 100%, use it for a day (or at least until the battery is down below 50%, and then see what it looks like.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jrosado:
Yup..that's it.

About 2/3 weeks ago i received a new battery to replace the old one on my nexus 5, that was only giving me about 2h of SOT. The battery is a standard 2300mA, brought on ebay. Right after the installation, the doubts started: the new battery does not have the wireless charging option. That was not said anywhere on the description, so the seller got a neutral feedback. Now, after some time, i come to the conclusion that the battery is as good as the old one: it only lasts for about 2h of SOT. So probably it's a fake battery... :(

So today i found ou this one: https://www.batteryupgrade.com/shop...rtmentProductId/61381272/shopGroupId/86483823

it says it is 2500mAh. Well, for the price it should be. Anyone care to comment if it is worth try it and spend the money on it or should i consider an original one from lgspares?

Regards.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] island3r:
First things first. Wireless charging is totally irrelavant with what battery you have inside. The coil is attached to the back plate, not the battery. If it is not charging wirelessly check your installation.

Secondly, ebay+batteries = fake. Also, anything more than 2300mAh = fake. These are the two steps you have to do to check if a battery is genuine:

a) Check the battery temp. If it always says 29c, then it is fake.

b) If it DOESN'T have LG printed on the back (or has sth else like Samsung TSDI), then it is fake.

Spareslg used to carry original batteries and I bought one myself about 1,5 years ago. I don't know if this is still the case now, although I don't see why they would change now. So your best bet would be them.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jrosado:
Hi.

Thanks for your input. However the wireless charging is on the battery itself. I did chech this by placing the older battery on top of my wireless charger and saw the ligthing charging indicador turn on.

What's on the back cover is the coil for the NFC.

As for the current battery, when i did found out that about the 29C it really is happening (with slight variations), even thought the battery says LG.

I've sent an e-mail to the website selling this new one. Let's see what they answer.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] island3r:
No it is not. The coil is on the back cover. You probably didn't snap the center clip in place (the one above the S), so there is no contact with the leads.

I didn't quite catch what you mean with the battery.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Tivolijr:
He means the battery temperature is 29 (fake) even if the LG words are written in it.

Topic looks a bit rezzed but...

I got this battery http://www.ebay.com/itm/2500mah-3-8...991327?hash=item4afad7431f:g:LIMAAOSwZ8ZW3lAJ

On my second charge I got 4h55m SOT, but the average from charge #1 and #3 is about 4h10m.

I bought this battery www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NCJMQXK/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8. It is OEM brand new. Easily gives me a full day on one charge with light usage.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272379416470 OEM N5 battery with manufacture date = december 2015, latest I can find

I'm going to be doing the mod for the 3k mAh battery,

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/401179982190 - June 2016, latest I can find.

Still waiting for the 3k mAh battery for the LG G2 to arrive, then I'll do the mod and update with results.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] island3r:
I did the mod with a spare G2 battery I got from a relative, but I don't think it really charged beyond 2300mah. The charging times were roughly the same as well as the SOT.

So in my opinion it is just a placebo.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] grimreaper1014:
Did you calibrate the battery? That would need to be done for the phone to create a new file for the battery to detect the increase in size.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] matusala:
Well i replaced my Nexus 5s bad 2300 mah battery with LG G2s Genuine new 3000 mah battery.

Only made 1 charge/discharge cycle. I played for 1 h 10 m not demanding game, Used chrome for 1 h 37 m, Used 4G Network for 30 m, Talked 20 m (playd 4-5 games for 4-5 minutes, some youtube, settings and this kind of staff)and it gave me 5 h SOT! And this with Custom rom Android 7 nitrogen (which is buggy!!!!) After 2-3 cycles of my new batter, stable ROM without issues and Voltage and frequency tweaks i think it will give me 6 h 30 m SOT. Which is fantastic for Nexus 5!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] George35000vr:
Is it that easy to mod the G2's battery to fit on N5?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] vakkah:
is it possible for you to post a tutorial on the lg g2 battery mod for the nexus 5?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] seungbaekm:
I really thinking about mod G2 battery into my Nexus 5.

I tried to order Genuine battery from the links that other people recommended.

Not surprisingly, one Amazon seller send me fake one.

Another one send looks like genuine but battery is manufactured in 2013 which is older than my original battery and, there are bunch of unknown black chemicals outside of the battery that I ordered.

Very tired to buy a genuine battery for Nexus 5. Seems like more easy to mod to install G2.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] grimreaper1014:
The one that I ordered is from 2013 but is a brand new unused battery. It is definetelt OEM as I have taken it apart. Before doing so I checked the temperature of the battery as wekk and it checks out there as well. I know they stopped manufacturing these batteries but not sure when. I personally would not be worried about the date of the battery but more so making sure it is OEM.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] glocksman:
Well, back in September I bought a 'genuine LG' BL-T9 with tools from a Chinese seller on ebay for $9.

I literally went over it with a magnifying glass and it appears genuine. All the markings are correct, the temp varies, and the build quality is the same as the original.

In fact, the only way I could tell the 2 apart was the sticky residue on the back of the original and the mfg date (11/26/2013 & 07/08/2016).

I took a chance on getting a fake, and if I did it turned out to be a good fake, as SOT went from under 2hrs to slightly over 4 and standby time is almost 5 days compared to the 2.5 or so from the original.

I gambled the $9 and unless my Nexus does a Note 7, I did good.

---------- Post added at 07:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 AM ----------

Manufacturing date is important with Li-polymer batteries.

A 3-year-old unused battery will not last as long as a 3-month-old unused battery.

The 'new' 2013 battery may last longer than the used one in the phone, but it won't last as long as a 2015 battery would.

I'd sooner buy a decent generic 2015-2016 battery than a genuine LG battery made in 2013.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] grimreaper1014:
I have not had a single problem with mine. I play a lot of games on my phone and I have no problem getting between 4 to 6 hours of SOT with the battery that I purchased from Amazon. After reading posts online my SOT is what other people are getting with their genuine batteries as well. So I don't see it degrading that much. Of it did it was a very tiny amount which I am fine with for what it cost. I believe it was like $8 shipped. I posted a link to it earlier in this thread or the other battery thread not sure which. I have also been using the battery for around 2 months now maybe s little longer with no degrade in SOT.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ATZ-007:
I’ve bought a new battery from AliExpress. Date on the battery is June 2016 (I assume it’s manufacturing date).

Before I replace the battery, I want to test the current/original battery. Any suggestion which App I can use?

It would be great if there an app that keeps screen on from 100% charge and records how long screen was on before battery died. Once I have the result, I can run the same app after (/if I manage to) change the battery.

Any suggestion/advice will be highly appreciated.

Thanks guys,
[Nexus 5 Accessories] glocksman:
Ampere is the app I use for measuring current & load.

IIRC, it doesn't keep a logfile, but it does help when it comes to determining output & charging current.

As for your other question, I really don't know which app to use, but if you do a search of the entirety of XDA, someone's probably coded one. :)

Though I personally wouldn't use such an app because the N5 gets pretty warm under heavy use anyway, and I'd rather not have it burst into flame unattended. :D

Also, the battery I posted earlier about here is still going strong.

It was either a genuine LG battery or a really good counterfeit.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jrosado:
Hi:

I ended up by buying an original battery from spares LG. So far, i'm very happy with the performance: i'm getting between 2h30m and 3h00 SOT, with 4G, wi-fi and Bluetooth allays on.

Just get an 'OEM' one from ebay. It probably won't be OEM, but I've found that they work the best in terms of actual stated capacity rather than those bunk higher capacity ones.

I bought and replaced my original one with one from Polarcell (bought on Amazon but can be also found on Ebay) and am very satisfied with it so far (after a month of use)

good luck!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kamild_:
I've heard about Polarcell batteries, good to hear they're considered good.

I just bought one from Wannsee-Electronics (official Polarcell shop), 20 euros including delivery to Poland, so a bit cheaper than if I had bought it from e-Bay. I'll post the results too, since I had a bad luck with my current cheap battery replacement, and now the battery dies in around 50 minutes of using Chrome :P

EDIT: Battery arrived a few days ago, indeed very good results so far. Used the LAB501 Battery Test (Video), old battery went from 100% to 1% in 142 minutes, while the Polarcell one took 381 minutes. If this battery retains this kind of performance for much longer, that will be 20 euros well spent :good:
