Can anyone help me how to make a ROM with large storage?

It seems like you can make ROM with large storage with Utility:

Want more Storage? New bugfixed version 2.1 rc2!

But don't realy know how to...

I'm thinking of building a ROM from Original HTC with large storage(Extended Memory Ported in storage).

Can anyone guid me

Thank you in advance.
[P3600 ROM Development] ameyhazuan:
Hi there,

I don't have the solution you are looking for. However, I was wondering if you can share your cooking rom with us if you able to do it.
[P3600 ROM Development] adewidt:
Then easiest way is to download any BigStorage ROM you like (you can use my ROM).

Extract the downloaded ROM with nbhtool_trin.exe.

Now you will get a Windows.nb or OS.nb (if it is Windows.nb rename it to OS.nb).

Also extract the XIP of the downloaded ROM.

Place the XIP folder and OS.nb in the ROM folder of your kitchen.

If you build a new ROM with BuildOS en imgfs tools your ROM will be bigstorage.
[P3600 ROM Development] hwpeter:
I have found 'nbhtool_mio.exe',

but where can I get 'nbhtool_trin.exe'.

Thank you in advance
[P3600 ROM Development] tjlabais:
you can download ROM Donalds - it's a sticky in this part of the forum, basic tools are found there.

I recently updated my TWRP to the latest and official version of 3.1.0, but now after updating it i am facing a new bug.

Whenever i wipe cache and dalvik cache it say's in the end "Unable to mount Storage"

Someone please help
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
You have some partitions encrypted.

Decrypt your phone and try again.

Some ROM have encryption activated, initially.
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
Could you please tell me how to decrypt? I am using RR rom 7.1.1 official
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
Mmmh it seems, that you can not.

please go there and read:

http://forum.le.com/us/index.php?threads/issue-whit-leeco-update.2383/

In addition you should also google for "android encrypt" or perhaps for "android 7 encrypt" ?

This feature exists already since Android 5...
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
Even though it says unable to mount storage i am able to see all the files in my storage and access them
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
Please read this thread:

Indian stock ROM LeMax2 EUI 5.8 15s

/data is encrypted with a factory password

-> no way to make it accessable for TWRP.

so you need to copy the content and after that, you need to wipe this partition
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
I had done that earlier when i flashed TWRP for the first time and after that nothing like this showed. I am seeing this again after updating it again to 3.1.0.

So i will have to factory reset it again to make itwork properly?

And do i have to do it every time i update my TWRP?
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
And also what all should i wipe?

Should i wipe my whole phone storage?
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
wipe /date and /cache

---------- Post added at 17:49 ---------- Previous post was at 17:46 ----------

the stock boot is always checking of /data is encrypted or not.

if /data is not encrypted, it will start encrypting while booting.

decrypt key is not known.
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
Thanks for the help but one more question is that will this happen again if i dont update my TWRP? Or only while updating it encrypts the data?

Sorry for all the noob questions. I am not so techy guy so these things are new to me
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
You will never have access to /data with TWRP,

if you can not provide the correct password.

This password is set by the manufacturer and not public yet.

If you boot the system you will have access to /data.

If you boot the TWRP you will not have access to /data.

This is not related to any update..
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
But i used to wipe my cache and do flash ROMs earlier and it never said unable to mount storage. It started doing this recently
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
Believe me or read the other threads regarding default encrypting Android versions..

/cache is cache

/data is all your userdata and apps

/system is the os

/boot is bootloader

/recovery is the TWRP

there are more mountpoints, you can see them if you click on mount in TWRP.

I wrote /data encrypted and you wrote /cache wiping.
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
Dude i meant that how suddenly it happened on its own i used to wipe cache and other stuff but never it has shown the unable to mount storage error thats what i meant i believe you i just want answers
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Prayas29:
Also it doesn't ask for any password or anything just says unable to mount storage at the end while wiping cache and dalvik cache. I havn't flashed anything since some time soo can't tell if flashing ROM will work or will it show some error.

But a few months ago NO error was displaying and everything was fine
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] Testerofroms:
You think, it's perhaps related to TWRP version?

Well then you can boot the version before or another version w/o flashing...

[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
Finally got my LG G6 T-Mobile USA yesterday 3/23/2017. Was really excited waiting to get my hands on it since there was no models to view even at the store. All we had were Youtube video's of reviews given to people by LG for free.

My initial impression out of the box was WOW, what a sweet looking device with the glass back, and all around hot look. But once powering it up I was blown back of how narrow the screen was compared to my 5.5" G4. It took a day to get use to this somewhat smaller screen though it suppose to be a 5.7". Aside from that is where it gets good.

LG's 7.0 UI is freaken amazing. You have to use it to appreciate it. I've always been an LG UI fanboy, but this is a whole new level of awesomeness.

Next is finally out of the box wireless charging. No more cheap Chinese sticker mod to use like on my G4. It works flawlessly on my wireless charger. A nice big notification comes on screen when wireless charging starts.

Love also the camera app as it goes in and out of regular mode and wide angle mode on the fly.

There's more to write, but just wanted to put a few notes here of what I though on day 2 of using the G6.

I got it unlocked already really easily. Look in the development section on how to do it.

Any TWRP dev around? Please help us get this to our device please, please, please!!! :))))

Edit.....

After a week of usage I decided to return it as I could'nt get used to the smaller narrow screen size. Getting the S8+

[MENTION=2522637]MicroMod777[/MENTION], How's your battery life so far?

For me I was 58% by the end of the day with 2 hours 45 minutes SOT.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
It was really good. Doesn't drain as fast as my G4 did. I have a bad habit of plugging in my phones when they hit 90% at work. lol

Btw, loving this bigger vibrate feedback when typing.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
Nice. Well, make sure to do a full battery drain and recharge to calibrate. I did that and my battery reading improves.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
I though the newer battery technology didn't need that anymore like back in the day. Could be wrong.

Btw, its day 3 now and I've gotten use to the narrower 5.7" display. I also noticed that reading Google News articles seemed loaded up with tons of more news clips when scrolling down. Maybe they just updated the app? lol
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
As far as the battery technology, yes, they say that, but because the Android OS still needs to calibrate itself, so the battery is not going to calibrate so much, but the Android OS would need that, just like the cache process.

I changed my text size to small, kind of like a smaller dpi and I get tons more stuff on the screen. I am getting used to it that it feels like my OnePlus 3t is awkward.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
Ahh that makes sense. I'll see if I can break my bad habbit today of plugging it in at 90%.

Btw, finally no wifi issues like I had on my G4. Everything loads fast with no lag.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] loudog3114:
Hah - I don't even think I got 3 hours sot total. I am pretty let down by the battery life so far, especially in a world with the mate 9 and mi mix doing 7 hours without breaking a sweat.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
Interesting. What I can tell you is that it depends on a lot of things from cellular network, wifi, running apps , and usage generally. I think this phone has 3300 mAh which is not bad compared to most phones. I agree that the software needs to be optimized. I am waiting for root and I'll do greenify and see stuff. With my usage, I'll probably get like 5 hours SOT
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] loudog3114:
Indeed it does, but the way I use my phone isn't changing. I got 7-8 hours easy on the mate, but 2 on the Nexus 6p. What build are you on?
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] UniX1rm:
As far as the build, I am stock out of the box. Disabled updates so I didn't take any ota as of yet. not sure if there is even an update! What about you!
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] m3xicanprid3:
i got mine yesterday the 24th of march.

the battery life is good, i used it since i got it without charging it for about 3 for hours downloading apps setting everything up and wasnt draining fast.

i dont really like the front camera, the color is just not to good in my own opinion. back camera is good i like it, no problem.

it does feel narrow comparing it to my g3 yes i upgraded from g3.

i like the features, like fingerprint, etc.

screen look crisp. good, yes.

so thats my day and a half review for now..

Wireless charging

Does the tmobile ver of the lg g6 use a new type of wireless charger? or will my QI charger from my Nexus 5 still work with it?
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wingzfan:
As far as I'm aware any qi with charger will work but none will do fast charging.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] RoxAbout:
Awesome!

I like the wireless charging because you don’t have to fuss with plug unplug just set it down like normal and it just charges. Mind you with the proper ROM and kernel you can get faster charging [at least on my N5].

Thank you
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nonbiasedhippo:
I've never actually liked LG UI, but I have to say, I really like it this time around. Its just overall very clean looking. It may seem that way to me seeing as I came from an S7 edge and even on Nougat, it was so sloooooow.

Got mine yesterday and finished setting it up last night. I've been using it this morning and early afternoon and have almost no complaints. The feel in the hand is great, and it truly is comfortable to use one handed.

All my apps are running fine and the UI is snappy and responsive.

What's driving me a little crazy is the "Phone Idle" is eating away more battery than anything--even my screen. The battery on this thing has been draining pretty steadily since this morning and I'm at under 50% already. I've disabled WiFi calling and VoLTE, but phone idle continues to count up. I'm still trying to figure out what could be causing this issue.

Might just end up doing a factory reset and trying again, but I hope I can pinpoint what's causing the pretty significant drain.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] quasitime:
May as well post this here since I'm on T-mobile.

Anyone else notice a soft hiss during HD Voice calls? Usually accompanies normal speech during a conversation. Also goes away when VoLTE and wifi calling are disabled.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jota164:
I feel exactly the same way.

I'm coming from a Pixel XL. One handed use is great. Speaker is nice and loud. Screen is really nice for being an LCD. Don't really miss my Pixel to be honest.

But I can say that the FFC isn't that great. Luckily I don't use it as much so who cares. Rear camera needs some work in low lighting. Other than that I am very pleased with my purchase and am ready to post my pixel for sale.

Anyway, I'm getting the same thing with battery. Phone idle as at the top and not sure what it is.

Battery life is fine for me though. Scanning stuff is off, Bluetooth off, location to battery saving, screen on auto brightness, sync is always on with wifi and wifi calling. Today I took it off the charger at 530AM, it's 749PM as I type this and just hit 5%. Screen on time is 3.5 hrs. Have used Play Music for about an hour, several phone calls, Duo video calls, Instagram, chrome browser and installing/uninstalling several apps.

Phone idle is at 20%, Screen 19%, Android system 14% and OS at 12.

My jobs service signal isn't the best though. Barely have 2 bars all day. Battery is similar to what I was getting with the Pixel XL.

I will see how it does on my days off. With my pixel I'd get maybe 25-27 hours with like 5-6 hrs SOT. Hopefully this can last me pretty close.

So far so good!
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wingzfan:
Haven't noticed that. Also on T-Mobile
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheSleezkIng:
only thing im not crazy about is the front face camera,everything else so far seems fine,easier to hold than my Nexus 6p,like the screen and rear camera,and battery life is good so far,on par with the 6p i have so no real complaints at the moment besides the FFC... will see how that Samsung ffc looks though even though the battery is smaller...

Yes, it's pretty much crappy at only 5mp. But it is wide angle so you can fit your 10 friends in a blurry selfie! lol

[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] echto:
I received mine yesterday and I'm quite impressed with the LG Backup and Restore for apps and data. It was painless and all my data, including OTP app data, was transferred. Other methods I've used in the past didn't work as well.

Other than that, I'm enjoying the phone. I disabled window animation in the developer section to get rid of the noticable lag when opening apps, and I switched to Nova Launcher instead on the stock launcher. I used HideApps to disable 23 apps that are worthless to me. I like the phone and am welcoming the water resistance feature. I'm keeping the included screen protector on until I can find one online. I cut the little white tab of the upper left.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wingzfan:
The supershieldz tempered glass work great. Perfect fit but require some patience as they are cut exactly to the screen. I ended up getting a SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro, removing the built in screen protector and putting a Ringke Ultra HD film protector on and putting it in the SUPCASE. Absolutely perfect for what I was looking for. Great protection and clear screen without the rainbowing from the SUPCASE built in protector.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] ein311:
So just following up with the "phone idle". I think I may have misunderstood that vs. the cell standby. I think the "phone idle" just counts up with the phone being on, but again I could be mistaken.

I don't see anything out of the ordinary in better battery stats and the phone is going into deep sleep just fine. (although I don't have nearly as much info as I would if it were rooted).

I went through a normal day's use with the phone and I've still got about 24% battery this morning, with a SOT approaching 7 hours, so I guess I'm just going to stop stressing about the phone idle counting up and use this phone like normal. I'll give it a good amount of use over the weekend snapping photos, listening to music, playing some games, etc. and see how well the battery holds up then.

I'm coming from a Moto Z Play so I've been spoiled by its battery performance, but everything else about the G6 is a definite upgrade over the Z Play.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] steely123:
We left our G4 for S7 and S7 edge. The S7s are performing extremely nicely, but very underwhelmed about the new samsungs coming out. The same crap and keep raising the price for nothing.

The G6 seems very enticing, battery life is great importance for us. We stream Sirius all day on both phones, and use the wireless charging. So, screen time isn't a big thing, but battery life is, and wifi calling. We take trips to family to the midwest with no service, in the sticks.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wingzfan:
This is the charger you have right?

Because I dont get fast charging at all with it.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] maruichan:
Very happy with the phone so far. I'm a little aggravated with LG that they didn't include the 64GB ROM with the phone. That was something I was hoping to avoid, was picking up a phone with lower memory. Pixel XL is too large for me and the Pixel is too small. Otherwise I would've gone that direction.

The screen size is perfect. However, I knew upfront about the aspect ratio and did the math. This phone is very close to my last phone, S5. I received the case before I received the phone and it is just about the same width, the G6 only being a hair narrower (and with less of a bezel). The longer screen is a godsend, if for anything, you're less likely to block the lens when taking quick shots with the camera.

The fingerprint sensor is in the right spot. Small person here, but I have long fingers. Need a phone I can one-hand when I'm running errands and when multitasking (which is often).

The speed of the phone for me is fine. I don't game with the phone, but I love a snappy phone. This one is fairly snappy, at least to me. The battery could probably be optimized. I don't feel I am particularly hurting for battery, but I think on some days where camera use is higher I may need to top up more. I imagine it will get better after they release after it receives an update (or after I root & install custom :p).
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] echto:
FYI. The samsung puck fast charger does not fast charge the LG G6. I have the same charger and I am not using it because of that.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wingzfan:
Yeah I'm pretty sure you can't fast charge with any wireless charger and I remember LG saying it wasn't available. I only tried this one since someone said it was working. Oh well, it's fine for charging while I sleep.

So, how do we know what wireless charger to get? I read an article that says it supports both PMC and WPC standards. Does that mean it does not support QI? I'm confused as I have never had a wireless charging phone.
