[Overlay] Dil3mm4's Overlays for Bond Series devices (all variants)

[Dil3mm4]

This overlay APK it's "born" because of the necessity to overcome missing overlays (thanks Huawei, love ya xoxo) under /vendor/overlay .

What it does exactly?

Nothing more than adding AOSP overlay matching our device capabilities and also, inherits Bond power profile.

Do I need it?

Yes.
It will fix Battery stats problems and add compatible features for your BND over GSI.
This will conisderably enhance your experience on every GSI ROM giving better functionality overall.

Why you did that?

Because I'm sick of inheriting stuff that belongs to /vendor, in system.
Project Treble it's all about separating vendor implementation from system.
So why we should keep adding OEM stuff in that doesn't belong no more in /system

I have XYZ device with ZYX firmware can I use it?

As long as you're on a BND-*** device (with a non-EMUI firmware), you're good to go.
Otherwise DO NOT USE IT FOR THE LOVE OF MANKIND.

I don't have BND, but I want it on my Huawei device !

Well, that's fine, join the Telegram group @GSI_HI6250, so that you could help me with stock files grabbing to make an overlay for your device.

TWRP install-able overlay AKP

This zip is the same APK as the op. Just it is in a twrp flash template, with the permissions set by the script

The next step is either a twrp with this built in or (more easily done an aroma installer to cover all the devices this overlay method works for)


V2 zip is a test for multiple device flash-able version. It still only has BND overlay APK in it though. Need feedback if it has any install problems for anyone.

The remover at this point only works if install was done with V2

current permissions are set at on

C:\Users\Mr>adb shell ls -lZ /vendor/overlay
-rw-r--r--    1      9632 Aug  1  2008 u:object_r:vendor_overlay_file:s0 dil3mm4-overlay.apk

Iam using openkirin rom(pie ROM) will this work on it,and will this enable volte and save battery?

This has nothing to do with volte

And nothing to do with battery life, as far as battery, it only deals with the displayed battery percentage.

And at the end, not sure if it will even work on pie.

 

[cyrusalmighty]

Would this do anything on Dil3mmas Descendant Onedotfour Pie rom or is the tweak built in already?

Built in already

So I use them also with OpenKirin or just for gsi like aosp?

afaik these overlays have been included into the main tree from phh, while ago. So any recent (3 months or so) builds should have this included.

openkirin has there own methods to deal with these things, so dont think these are needed on their builds either

@Dil3mm4 can you make overlay for redmi note 3? too? they have "semi" treble but not everything works...
