Hi friends,

I injected Genisys UX5.0 theme apps into H818P Marshmallow 6.0 V20e-ESA-XX.
There is no root because of the security measure (seLinux) enabled on android 6.0. Please read this. Only way to disable this feature is to unlock the bootloader.


Announcement:
As I have moved to another device the mod will no longer be updated. I have uploaded the misc. files for developers who want to continue on my development (see attached images). If you like my work so far please don't forget to click thanks. Thanks for your supports guys.

The exact SOT from 100 - 0 is not recorded.
I am testing it on the 2nd date. Not much drain so far. It is better than stock v20c I think.

Screen off time is quit well (1-2 % overnight).
(I disabled the fast dormancy)
ive tried stock v20e before, it has 2.5hrs SOT max. And yes still better than v20c
How about the heat issue? while over-used your phone with genisys theme..

Regarding the heat, I had used CTT mod when I was using CamUIX 5.1 alpha mod.
The heat is similar, not notable high temperature.

I am currently testing its heat result, if there is a heat issue I will add CTT mod into this rom too.

However, I don't play games nor using much video recording just surf the internet, youtube, email and messaging. I did not find any heat issue.

Is it really has a good improvement for the new system.img? I already tried yours mod right now and really enjoyed so far :cowboy:
Mainly tuned in term of heat and performance (higher bench scores), and battery as well. However, on the non-root system, the battery diagnosis is limited. You may stop at the version you satisfied. If you like to join the development please update it and report the result.

You can feel free to try this version because you don't need to install the whole new firmware. All you need is just copying system1.img into you internal storage and using lgup in UPGRADEmode to start flashing it with Send_Command. Thus all your apps and setting should be fine.

Yea i do like doing this kinda stuff tho. Waiting the file download to be completed and give you some result in a day or next 2 days :cowboy:
I really appreciate your work. H818P needs more custom modding, so jealous with h815 they had CM custom rom
