Mod thermal files ? - LG V40 Questions & Answers

Hello-wondering if anyone can tell me if the thermal-engine.conf file can be deleted/renamed for this phone to reduce software-based thermal throttling. If so, which ones? I searched quite a bit but can only find references to doing it, but nothing specific to the v40. Thank you!

You should join the tele group for the v40. They have specific directions and people who have done that. There's an invitation to the group in the first post of the LOS thread in the v40 Roms / Dev forum.
cheers

I'll do that, thank you!

I've got both deletes on my 7 pro with no issues also stopped the throttling with battery below 15. Makes it usable till she died

Camera fix - Now the camera works fine

For those who have been experiencing a bad quality camera, sometimes unable to take even a simple photo...
HTC has just released a patch. It works great, but be sure your EV value is under cero. (You can find the slider for this value in the panel with six big buttons, at the right-upper corner).
Nevertheless, the optic is not so good in this brand...
Any chance of a link?
This is a triplicate post. Please search the forum using the tools provided to find several other threads both discussing this and containing the patch for download.
sorry to be a ludite, but doing a search for "camera patch" yields basically this thread, and doing a search for anything else with camera in it kicks back tons of stuff to sift through. what should i search for? thanks!

I don't think LG will update this phone anymore, maybe just one more but nothing major like to 4.3 or anything. Do we really need this thread?

So far the thread is going pretty well! But I must admit, that is an amateur mistake! - Next time, change the hyper links. then none of this would have happened! :good:
"The purpose of this thread is to provide a singular location to talk about all updates for all regions. There is no need to create a new thread for every update for every region. Just discuss it here in this thread"
You can't discuss all updates in one place, you need to maintain some order. It's not convenient if one person talks about v10A, other about v10H and the third one talks about v20A, and all that in one thread on the same page. Subthreads are necessary in these situations. You can make a general thread about this phone where you can discuss about different visual themes or such less-relevant things, but official updates/ROMs/kernels need to be subthreaded because it's easier to find specific information you're looking for. After all, that's the true purpose of threads and subthreads, isn't it?
OP, if you realise and looked at the past, there's already a well used and discussed thread for this purpose. Of course its title can be tweaked a little.

that's exactly the point of this button.
many people think the report button would be "holy", and you would only be allowed to press it in "worst cases". but, in fact, the opposite is the case. most mods are thankful you hitting the report button. FSM's are splitted my manufacturers, "our" FSM team has to deal with all sony(ericsson), LG and Motorola sections, so the chance for seeing something going wrong is ~0.
sorry for the heavy OT, but i just had to let it out now

HAHA!! i see. how abt "official LG rom discussion thread"? lol but the current title is good enough imo, having the contents that really counts.
Just saying....
So.... 2 pages so far and not really anything in the way of discussion regarding O4X updates.....
I tend to side with the view that LG are far more likely to concentrate future efforts on new devices rather than issue significant firmware updates to existing models; by cell phone handset standards, the O4X whilst still very capable and adaptable is already something of a dinosaur where age is concerned.
What keeps us going is the excellent work done by the devs and custom rom artists

When could we except Kernel Sources?

Hi all.
My question is about kernel sources. I know devs can do magic if the sources are out there.
So, does Xiaomi typically give kernel sources? When would they do that? And especially why?
I am trying to understand how Xiaomi stands in that regard.
Cheers!
They are some of the worst. Even when they do release it, it is broken or incomplete. No one that has any choice buys their devices.

I have now filed a complaint with the XDA admins, asking them if they think it's ok with moderators that keep posting falsified information and non constructive nonsense. You are certainly lowering the quality of the threads. I don't know why, and I don't care why - but please help making XDA a better place instead of posting things no one wants to read.

You can think what ever you want but my comments are very much true. If a developer is looking for a device to develop on Xiaomi is is avoided due to their lack of following the GPL. Think I am wrong why not have a read HERE where we talk about it in length.

No idea. Their selection criteria which device source to release also remains unrevealed.
maybe 1year after the release of Mi5. Thats what they did with Mi3 right?
The kernel sources are published. Are they complete and are they useful for the dev(s)?
here are the kernel sources

@thunderrr0 I know they are published but I have not found anybody who can tell whether the sources can be used or are broken.

Only developers will know for sure unless you download the source and try to build it as is. Most of the time there takes lots of fixes and hacks to get it working. Main reason most developers won't buy their devices.

Almost, read this.
This is a Quote from a Post.
Back in early September of 2016 there was a situation between a friend of mines and XDA. This friend’s name is Nate Benis or better known as Beanstown106. Nate or should I say “Beans” as I call him was upset that a individual had taken his work and posted it on XDA prior to him releasing his official build. He really got upset. This was probably the first time that I had seen Beans upset in public. He normally keeps his thoughts private and so I was surprised. He pulled his source off github and took to G+ to call this guy out.

Not much. Alex didn't like XDA's direction, which seems fair. Creates new site to recreate what once was, admin gets upset, escalates things. Too much drama for me.
I wholeheartedly agree with the "glorified tech support" thing though. It seems most people here can't even pull up proper logs when they have issues. "issue here plz fix o kind dev."
I think XDA has become more of a tech site instead of an actual developer website, albeit developers still post here. If you look at Dev's Base, it doesn't have the completely off topic posts that XDA does. Not saying its a bad thing that XDA does, it just seems Dev's base is a dev site not a tech site.
What firmware are you all using on the new Jan18 build?
Have you tried and success to install Viper4android or any audio mod ?

Dude bugger off. They don't care if we discuss it. As long as no links to downloads are posted here. Look below a few threads and you'll see a discussion about DU that was active over a year. Never got shutdown cause it didn't violate any rules. I don't know why we needed a new thread though.

Sorry if I came across harsh, and discussion is allowed. Just don't see the point of doing it here, when you could get responses from people who actually develop this ROM over on their G+. That's what I really meant, don't see point in this thread. Discussing it is allowed.

IDK, the large majority of Dev's Base seems to not be there for "tech" stuff. Considering the current lead of the site, I doubt it will change either. Its possible though.

It's only possible to keep the site that way if it remains small or if they ban every new user that doesn't know enough.
Looking at their G+ page and at what some DU users ask here on XDA, it's clear not everyone is a genius. Allow normal users to create accounts and install your fancy ROM and then you have a typical XDA thread with dumb questions.

Not that. Some people just prefer to access a messaging platform than a forum. Is way too easy. A lot of phones (e.g, Xiaomi's and Realme's) have Telegram groups with bots and notes to facilitate the use and search for features, mods, etc.
I don't really understand why this phone doesn't have active devs. When I look up at YouTube I see a lot of videos from different countries and it appears to be a good selling one.

No and no one cares this device for this moment, maybe I will, cus current on daisy is everything done. And with "stock debloated roms" you mean stock rom, but debloated? (Some kinda deleting unnecesary apps, adding features, customizing kernel, right?)

Well yes, stock as in not AOSP, because only Samsung's firmware gives full control over the camera.
And yes, debloated as in no rubbish apps from Samsung.
I'm not sure what customising kernel can actually give you as benefit, I'm not Dev.

Debloating stock isn't hard, I can make it if you want that. Customizing kernel can give better battery life, perfomance etc.

Well that's a great news.
What I'd be worry about is how to install it. Since there isn't a simple way to even root the firmware.
Do you happen to also know how to prepare a custom bootloader?
