[B][04-29-2013][/B] initial release
Additional stuff:
GPU OC more than 520MHz:
For daily use, i set the max GPU rate to 520MHz. This should be enough.
But if you think, you need more heat to cook something for example, you can go up to 600MHz. Therefore you need to set a new max GPU clock limit. You do this using the following commands:
Code:
echo '<GPU_clock>' >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_oc
with <GPU_clock> being your new desired max clock rate
Setting LP max rate:
You have now the ability to set the max speed of the low power core (5th core). You can do this using the following command:
Code:
echo '<LP_clock>' >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpu_lp_max
with <LP_clock> being your new desired max clock rate
Changing the voltage table:
You have the ability to change the voltages for the processor from now on. But just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Changing voltages is dangerous! In the worst case, you can burn your processor!
I am not at all responsible for damage, caused my my kernel/your settings!
You can find the interfaces here:
Code:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table <--- CPU
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/avp_UV_mV_table <--- GPU
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/emc_UV_mV_table <--- RAM
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/lp_UV_mV_table <--- LP core
For using @arararagi's hardware customizations, i'd suggest you to use his toolbox from this thread
Stock builds of Werewolf JB
Hi all.
I'll be maintaining WerewolfJB kernel for stock. The links will be listed on this post. I may also upload experimental kernels.
All credits go to @laufersteppenwolf for his excellent kernel.
For now, the link for WerewolfJB v005 stock is this: https://www.box.com/s/okea8s7pdqcgf5soppbi
And for WerewolfJB v005 CM (with increased voltages and new modules for mobile data): https://www.box.com/s/4d3vxivlcu9ebsku6r4f
Flash it via CWM/TWRP.
Note: Both stock AND CM versions have increased voltage for the 1.7GHz step to 1300mV because of reported instability. Be careful in undervolting since the voltage table is slightly imbalanced, so perhaps -75mV can work for some frequencies but not for others. Furthermore, I removed quite a lot of wakelock references in baseband_xmm_power but forgot to revert them back to the "fix", so if you have any baseband instability please drop me a PM. Also please do report battery life performance, along with a screenshot of your wakelocks and ideally a dmesg. Thanks.
==============================
Experimental versions (for STOCK):
None for now.
Woohoo thanks!! Goodies for us

I would have liked to release the ROM tonight, too.... but my lappy somehow didn't agree with me
Please test and report back. Also about gaming performance.
Is to flash the Kernel with Fastboot the only way ?
Our can I flash it with Terminal Emulator?

What about battery life?
On official CM when I use 3G Internet, battery drain is very, very fast.

this is a great news, another custom kernel :beer:
but I'm still with zaiben rom (base on stock rom) cause for me cm 10.1 rom still not ready for my daily use. I hope you will build for stock rom too
surely I will try your kernel when I'm ready to move to cm official or when you release you rom

This kernel seems good so far - feels smoother and more consistently buttery. I'll have a look for bugs - I don't know about the governors, though.

[ DISCLAIMER ]
I am not to be held liable/responsible if you damage your phone by following / not following this thread.
[ additional info ]
ok, time for some gyan! (by DooMLoRD)
see each cpu/chip is different
each is unique and has different tolerances
slowly keep increasing the frequency
check its stability for 5-10 hrs
check for random reboots
check which one is best suitable for your device
if u start getting reboots/freezes then throttle back and use lower frequencies
remember just because someone else device was able to work at that frequency/voltage doesn't mean that your phone can support/handle that frequency/voltage
I would recommend that u DO NOT use high frequencies for long time! This may damage your device, though the damage is not readily visible!
The high frequencies are just for temporary boost/benchmarks/showoff
You have been warned!

For controlling keypad back-light LED brightness:
Requirement:
Rooted ROM
UC kernel v4
Terminal emulator or use adb shell
Follow these commands in terminal emulator or in adb shell:
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness
echo 100 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness
It will set your LED brightness to 100.
Note that resetting brightness value to 0 before new value is required.
And also, the brightness value gets reseted when device goes to sleep and woken up. You will needed some script manager to control this in background continuously
OR
use custom scripts like init.qcom.post_boot.sh found in stock ROM's /system/etc folder and add them to init.d folder.
Note1:From UC Kernel v4 and onwards there will be two releases for every type of ROM, one for stable OC upto 1.6GHz with all features and other with OC upto 2GHz.
The reason behind this is that we do not want to become reason for your device's losses. Using CPU frequency at high level (2.0GHz) is very dangerous and it could damage your device.
These damages are not readily visible but on a long run they might affect your device's hardware.
And we don't think that its worth to OC at high frequency levels at the cost of your device.Note2:OC cpu frequency at 2.0 GHz is not stable on STOCK ROM or Andro-ID, atleast thats the case with my device.
But I could atleast use it for a minute or so on MIUI ROM. So you can use MIUI if you want to OC upto 2.0GHz for show off purpose Note3:
I want all of you to test and give me feedback about fix for multi-touch axis inversion. As I have mentioned it is still in experimental stage. And I need to fix some parameters by trial and error. So need your inputs.
Thanx!
Note4:If you do not want to use UC-kernel bootlogo as splash image then remove splash.img file from /splash folder present in update zip before installing UC kernel. If you have already installed UC kernel v5 then your original splash.img is backed up in /sdcard/UCbackup folder. You can restore it using this Revert_splash update zip.

one question
hi
i dont want to overclock or any thing
i just want a stable official ROM i do know that this will work on my rooted off 2.3.4
i just want to know if by using this kernal ill get a little stability on the phone ie none of the various screen problems
thanks in advance

CPU governors:
Helps in efficient ramping up/down of CPU speed as per demand of CPU load.
They differ mostly in the way the ramping speeds are defined. (Dynamic or constant value)
SmartassV2, interactiveX and SavagedZen are built on interactive governor which suits for high CPU performance with reduced battery drain.
SmartassV2 dynamically sets the ramping speed around a set ideal CPU freq (768MHz) in wake mode and minimum ideal CPU freq (248MHz) in sleep mode. It will try to maintain CPU freq around these set ideal limits. So no need to use any other SetCPU profiles.
IOScheduler:
It tries to distribute bandwidth among all processes according to their weights.
Basically, efficient control of work load distribution over various background running application.
BFQ is based on CFQ. (I dont know much details about any of them. And there is no point in providing technical information.)
In my opinion VR is better.
Check yourself which combination suits you perfect based on overall performance (use different benchmark apps) or battery life.

I can not guarantee about stability on your device as every device is different though sharing same manufacturer.
But I have never faced any stability problem on my device except when I had reduced voltage to a greater extent at higher frequencies, which made it to reboot.
To prevent such problems while setting or playing with CPU related tweaks DO NOT SET ON BOOT option in the apps unless you are very sure about the setting.
By not selecting ob boot you will be atleast sure that the settings will be reseted to default after reboot.
On other note, you dont need to overclock always, you can underclock too. Or for that matter undervolt too for better battery life.
Nonetheless using CPU governors and IOSched makes life great for the device.

hi
thanks what i meant by stability is not getting that screen going crazy some times problem,anyway ill try this on my rooted 2.3.4 and keep u posted on the same

the crazy screen thing is cause of using high frequencies for long times...
ur devices will work great at 1.2Ghz... even 1.5Ghz is good... but anything above that depends on ur device...

hi DooMLoRD, remember me? in last posts of v02 thread I mentioned my undervolting miracle...
today I tried the performance governer as you suggested, but the phone freezes on startup & restart once SetCPU & IncrediControl gain super user permission, the setting is 1.5GHz @ 0.75v...
for the phone to boot up stably with performance governer @ 1.5GHz it needs 1.125v...
however, if I use on-demand governer (0% powersave bias - meaning it stays @ 1.5GHz 99%~100% of the time, checked with SetCPU), it is fine, I can play 3D games, loop Quadrant benchmark, run more than 30min of SetCPU stress test without a problem... camera works fine....
based on your experience... can the setting be considered stable?..... like.... something in the boot procedure stresses the phone extraordinarily?? lol?
p/s: for 1.6GHz & above, even with on-demand governer, the phone will need significantly more than 0.75v for the clockspeed to even be applied (scale pulling... it freezes there), I forgot how much, but definitely more than 1v
many thanks for your input!!!
My phone can go smoothly on 1.6ghz at -75v with smartassv2 governor.... i tried -100v but its was an unsuccessful try since it hangs and shut off...

1. slide SetCPU max clock speed (but slowly work your way up)...
2. set governer to "performance" (default is on-demand)
3. apply (don't set on boot, yet)
4. in IncrediControl, decrease voltage of the max clock set in SetCPU, initially you may work with larger decrement... like 100mv....
5. apply (don't set on boot also.. just yet)
6. test stability by playing games, record video with camcorder app, run the Stress Test in SetCPU, loop Quadrant benchmark
7. repeat step 4 but decrease decrement
8. revert to previous voltage if current voltage is unstable (write it down, to be applied later with "Set on Boot")
9. repeat step 1

I have done a quick test on battery life & temperature for reference...:
Parameters:
- 1.5GHz
- Performance governer
- 30 minutes of GT Racing Motor Academy HD (just left it there... lol... to avoid inconsistency)
- Discharged from freshly charged 100% battery
- Constant ambient temperature & screen brightness

This is not recommended.... keep the decrements VERY small... ideally decrease 25mV at a time...
Also the best stress test is to use multiple runs of LINPACK/BenchmarkPI

sorry sorry, it was a huge mistake, I was about to type 50mv, then I added the "larger decrement" line, I wanted to change to 100mv but typo 500mv instead LOL, sorry......... but you're definitely right, if we have the patience we should just go by -25mv
---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------
1 more observation (no systematic proof though...)
my phone's signal reception is MUCH STRONGER with the processor undervolted, I'm on full bar most of the time now, whereas previously it would be 2-notch, sometimes none...

Everything Else that works on FXP
What doesn't work --
Anything that doesn't work on FXP
Whats Included in kernel ------------
Added Governors --
brazillianwax
smartass
Smartassv2
Savagedzen
Smoothass
Scary
InteractiveX
Minmax
Userspace
Intellidemand - Thanks to faux123
This is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling,
and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such.
Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.
Lazy - Thanks to Ezekeel
The Idea here is to eliminate any instabilities caused by fast frequency switching by ondemand.
Lazy governor polls more often than ondemand, but changes frequency only after completing min_time_state
on a step overriding sampling interval.
Lazy also has a screenoff_maxfreq parameter which when enabled will cause the governor to always
select the maximum frequency while the screen is off.
Lulzactive - Thanks to Tegrak
Based on Interactive and Smartass. When workload is greater than or equal to 60%, the governor scales up
CPU to next higher step. When workload is less than 60%, governor scales down CPU to next lower step.
When screen is off, frequency is locked to global scaling minimum frequency
- Superbad
- a "superbad" super smooth rendition of a highly optimized "smartass" governor!
- Darkside
- a "slightly more agressive smart" optimized governor!
-Ondemandx:
Basically an ondemand with suspend/wake profiles. This governor is supposed to be a battery friendly ondemand. When screen is off, max frequency is capped at 500 mhz. Even though ondemand is the default governor in many kernel and is considered safe/stable, the support for ondemand/ondemandX depends on CPU capability to do fast frequency switching which are very low latency frequency transitions. I have read somewhere that the performance of ondemand/ondemandx were significantly varying for different i/o schedulers. This is not true for most of the other governors. I personally feel ondemand/ondemandx goes best with SIO I/O scheduler.
-Lionheart:
Is a conservative-based governor. The tunables (such as the thresholds and sampling rate) were changed so the governor behaves more like the performance one, at the cost of battery as the scaling is very aggressive.
To 'experience' Lionheart using conservative, try these tweaks:
sampling_rate:10000 or 20000 or 50000, whichever you feel is safer. (transition latency of the CPU is something below 10ms/10,000uS hence using 10,000 might not be safe).
up_threshold:60
down_threshold:30
freq_step:5
Lionheart goes well with deadline i/o scheduler. When it comes to smoothness (not considering battery drain), a tuned conservative delivers more as compared to a tuned ondemand.
BadAss Governor:
Badass removes all of this "fast peaking" to the max frequency. Badass will also take the gpu load into consideration. If the gpu is moderately busy it will bypass the above check and clock the cpu with 1024Mhz. If the gpu is crushed under load, badass will lift the restrictions to the cpu.
-Virtuous
Virtuous is a modded smartassV2 which gives even more battery time then smartassV2
Added Io-scheduler --
VR io-scheduler - Unlike other schedulers, synchronous and asynchronous requests are not treated separately,
instead a deadline is imposed for fairness. The next request to be served is based on it's distance from last request.
- SIO - Simple IO-Scheduler-
SIO is the default scheduler in this kernel. It is widely-regarded as the best all-round performing IO scheduler for android. It is low on CPU usage and optimized for flash-based storage. From the creator - "Based on Noop, Deadline and V(R) IO schedulers. This algorithm does not do any kind of sorting, as it is aimed for aleatory access devices, but it does some basic merging. We try to keep minimum overhead to achieve low latencies. Asynchronous and synchronous requests are not treated separately, but we rely on deadlines to ensure fairness."
- BFQ - Budget Fair Queueing IO-Scheduler-
From Creators
* Copyright (C) 2008 Fabio Checconi
* Paolo Valente
*
* Licensed under the GPL-2 as detailed in the accompanying COPYING.BFQ file.
*
* BFQ is a proportional share disk scheduling algorithm based on the
* slice-by-slice service scheme of CFQ. But BFQ assigns budgets,
* measured in number of sectors, to tasks instead of time slices.
* The disk is not granted to the active task for a given time slice,
* but until it has exahusted its assigned budget. This change from
* the time to the service domain allows BFQ to distribute the disk
* bandwidth among tasks as desired, without any distortion due to
* ZBR, workload fluctuations or other factors. BFQ uses an ad hoc
* internal scheduler, called B-WF2Q+, to schedule tasks according to
* their budgets. Thanks to this accurate scheduler, BFQ can afford
* to assign high budgets to disk-bound non-seeky tasks (to boost the
* throughput), and yet guarantee low latencies to interactive and
* soft real-time applications.

VM tweaks (explained below)
VM Tweaks
dirty ratio and dirty background ratio 1 & 2
This controls how often the kernel writes data to "disk" (in our case the internal microSD system card, not the removable microSD card). When your apps write data to disk, Linux actually doesn't write the data out to the disk right away, it actually writes the stuff to system memory and the kernel handles when and how the data is actually going to be flushed to the disk. These values represent a percentage, the higher the percentage, the longer it waits to flush, the lower the percentage, the more often flushes will occur. Now remember, we are dealing with solid state storage, not the traditional disk platter and spindle. So we are actually able to delay flushes a little longer with solid state versus a traditional hard drive disk.
dirty_expire_centisecs
How old "dirty" data should be before the kernel considers it old enough to be written to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.
dirty_writeback_centisecs
This is the interval of when the writeback daemons periodically wake up and write "old" data out to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.
min free kbytes
This is used to force the Linux VM to keep a minimum number of kilobytes free. The VM uses this number to compute a pages_min value for each lowmem zone in the system. Each lowmem zone gets a number of reserved free pages based proportionally on its size. Default is 2048kb.
overcommit_memory
This controls overcommit of system memory, possibly allowing processes to allocate (but not use) more memory than is actually available.
0 - Heuristic overcommit handling. Obvious overcommits of address space are refused. Used for a typical system. It ensures a seriously wild allocation fails while allowing overcommit to reduce swap usage. root is allowed to allocate slighly more memory in this mode. This is the default.
1 - Always overcommit. Appropriate for some scientific applications.
2 - Don't overcommit. The total address space commit for the system is not permitted to exceed swap plus a configurable percentage (default is 50) of physical RAM. Depending on the percentage you use, in most situations this means a process will not be killed while attempting to use already-allocated memory but will receive errors on memory allocation as appropriate.
Swappiness
A property for the Linux kernel that changes the balance between swapping out runtime memory, as opposed to dropping pages from the system page cache. Swappiness can be set to values between 0 and 100 inclusive. A low value means the kernel will try to avoid swapping as much as possible where a higher value instead will make the kernel aggressively try to use swap space.
VFS Cache Pressure
File system cache (dentry/inode) is really more important than the block cache above in dirty ratio and dirty background ratio, so we really want the kernel to use up much more of the RAM for file system cache, this will increas the performance of the system without sacrificing performance at the application level. The default value is 100, as a percentage, and what you want to do is lower the value to tell the kernel to favor the file system cache and not drop them aggressively.

[highlight]The same thing applies if you update to a higher version or if you downgrade to a lower version of the kernel.[/highlight]
README!- JB Versions recieve OTA updates over Goo Manager!
-Do a nand backup before testing!
-[highlight]Test[/highlight] versions are for testing, therefore expect bugs and please report them in detail.
-Beware that you use this at your own risk and please provide feedback in order to get it stronger/better/bla bla bla
-The versions of kernel for ICS Sense around here should work on all OFFICIAL ICS 2.31.401.2 RUU based roms, and the official one of course, so if you use a different firmware, make sure you make a backup as there are BIG chances it will not work.
-The versions of kernel for JB will work only on AOSP based ROM's like Cyanogenmod, Paranoid, PAC, AOKP and so on, version 4.2 and up!
-The JB build already have this kernel included as it's the only one right now to support JB for our device, but here you can get the latest changelogs and eventually updates for the kernel if not available otherwise.
-[highlight]ION[/highlight] versions of kernel are for ION versions of ROM's, don't use it if you don't know what that means!
-[highlight]DO NOT USE JB KERNELS ON SENSE/ICS ROMS![/highlight]
-Use SetCPU or CPU Master Free(<<my personal choice) in order to activate OC or other Governors and Schedulers, can be found on market
What i say here is just my opinion for the best freq usage possible:
-Stock: Conservative 245 - 1500 Mhz
-Battery friendly: Conservative 149 - 1200 Mhz
-Balanced: SmartassV2 149 - 1497 Mhz
-Kickass: Ondemand 245 - 1800 Mhz
--Best Graphics score: 1497 Mhz
--Best CPU score: 1800 Mhz (you don't say?)
(1497 Mhz was introduced in LTX since 0.7.6)

As the source-code may help others, or if you simply want to see what the code looks like, here it is the gihub link of my kernel, it will be updated as soon as changes are made on it, enjoy the open-source creations!
FAQ:Q: How can i use SWAP?
You need to find a script or to activate it manually, check the xda forum for a init.d script for that.
Q: Will battery last more with this kernel?
On stock values yes, it can be improved by changing VDD voltages and Underclocking.
Q: Will performance be better with this kernel?
It also depends on the ROM you are using, but YES, performance will be better.
Q: What are all the terms around here about?
Check this beautiful and plentiful GUIDE!
Q: Why should i use this kernel?
Because it's better than stock, don't believe me? Try it!
Q: Will you port this or that kernel for our device?
No, but i can include features, just ask for them
Q: With what Toolchain is this kernel compiled?
This kernel is compiled with official Google toolchain version 4.6.3
Q: Why don't you use this or that toolchain to compile your kernel?
Because there is no difference, check this thread for details.
Fanbar:As now the kernel has a little personality, i decided to make a fanbar

Works great with Sense 4.0, thanks mate! Just wondering, after installing setCPU is it only necessary to set mhz to 1804 and nothing else such as governors etc? Anyway, works very fast, good start!
Yes, a so fast battery drain is the only little problem with the kernel...
thanks for this kernal, now my battery consumption in sleep mode is Awesome,,, the day before when i was not using ur kernal it took 30% of battery for one night,,now after flashing this Awesome kernal it consume 3% for whole night... Loved it . Keep going .

BRIEF EXPLANATION ABOUT KERNEL FEATURES
UKSM
UKSM is about de-duplication of data in system memory rather than being another de-duplicating file-system. This improves RAM usage.
Dynamic Sync Control
The dynamic sync control interface uses Android kernel's unique early suspend / late resume interface. While screen is on, file sync is disabled. When screen is off, a file sync is called to flush all outstanding writes and restore file sync operation as normal.
Frandom
Frandom is a Linux kernel random number generator, which is 10-50 times faster than what you get from Linux' built-in /dev/urandom. It uses very little (/dev/frandom) or none (/dev/erandom) of the kernel's entropy pool, so it is very useful for applications that require a handy source for lots of random data.
CPU Boost driver
When certain bursty and important events take place, it might take a while for the current cpufreq governor to notice the new load and react to it. That would result in poor user experience. To alleviate this, the cpu-boost driver boosts the frequency of a CPU for a short duration to maintain good user experience while the governor catches up.
FAQ
On which ROM can I install nebula?
- nebula can be used on any AOSP kitkat 4.4+ based ROM. (Carbon, SlimKat, CM11)
What is the best and most stable configuration for nebula?
- Configuration depends from user to user. Still, the most stable configuration according to me and that I use is below. It might differ for you.
- Governor: SmartassV2
- Max. freq: 1.2 Ghz (OCing doesn't really have an increased and noticeable performance, rather it heats the processor and wastes battery for a marginal gain in performance as well as creates instability - random reboots etc. Google more about OC.) (Read the description on this commit.)
- I/O Scheduler - SIO
- Enable UKSM (from Performance Control app)
- Enable Dynamic FSync (from Performance Control app)
- I'll update this configuration as more tweaks are added to nebula
I get random reboots, what should I do?
- I am working on the kernel for myself and the kernel is quite stable for me. Still, if you face reboots see below:
- Make sure you followed the installation instruction written in Post #1.
- Make sure you "Fix permissions".
- OCing will always cause instability. Try reducing the max frequency to 1.2 Ghz
- It is quite possible that you don't know how to use a custom kernel. Not everything needs to be set at HIGHEST. Just because an "option" is there doesn't mean you have to select it. Try changing the configuration that meets your needs and satisfies you. If you set up the kernel properly, it would stop giving you random reboots.
- The only way to get things fixed is to provide logs. I cannot fix that I cannot see. Google, how to take logs to find and solve kernel issues. (kmsg/last_kmsg)
- Tell me a way in which I can reproduce the issue on my phone.
Does hotplugging work well with zzmove governor? I remember trying hotplug on s2vep and it freezed almost everytime while deep-sleeping.

Read the description in this commit - Link
There has already been a discussion on CM11 thread about how much does it really benefit by OCing at higher frequencies. Refer to that thread's discussion for more info.
In short - OCing at too high frequency heats up the CPU (obviously) and doesn't necessarily increase performance.
Even though I have added OC till 1.6 Ghz, but even I don't use that setting. 1.2 Ghz is fine for me.
Another kernel for AOSP rom.....:laugh::laugh::good::good::good::good:
Installed the kernel in carbon ROM and is working fine....:good::good:

It's actually 1797 MHz, so let's say it's only 3MHz shy from 1.8 GHz
This kernel looks promising, I will download, install, and use it for a few days

I need a lil battery life guys my service provider doesn't have 3g for now some TRAI issues and i stay away frm hme most of the time so using 2g and the screentime i get max is 3 hrs 30 mins wid evolution kernel processor=conservative,I/O=sio or sio plus and today i reverted back to cm's stock kernel and have flashed the latest build my biggest issue is when my battery drops down to 30% it starts draining drastically say like for 2 mins from 30 to 24% any help would be definitely appreciated have made calibrations until now again calibrating tonight and will test after that nebula for sure because only name i knew for best custom roms was and is XENON92!:thumbup:

If the system did a forced reboot to avoid further CPU instability, the options will revert back to default... correct me if I'm wrong.
pawitp also said in the CM11 thread, that the options dont instantly set on system boot. You may have to wait 1 minute and check back.

NOTE : GOODIX BUILD IS HIGHLY EXPIREMENTAL AND MIGHT BREAK SOME THINGS, IAM NOT SURE IF FP WILL WORK (USERS MIGHT ALSO HAVE TO FLASH GOODIX PATCH FOR NOUGAT)[/COLOR]
Changelog :
(P.S if you see older dates or older changelog in the installer please dont worry, iam lazy to update it )
Version 8.0
- Rebase to Latest CAF/3.10.84 (Reason - Linux Upstreams are Useless, earlier my kernel was based on Lineage 14.1 Kernel, but now its based on Pure CAF-3.10.84, and now kernel is Smooth as Butter and doesnt contains any Mi Max ****s...)
- Unified Build For all ROMS and FP SENSORS

Nice, will check your kernel ASA I can
UPDATE : I NEED TESTERS FOR GOODIX VERSION ELSE IT WILL BE ABANDONED, ITS BIT HARD FOR ME TO MANAGE TWO SEPRATE BRANCHES! PLEASE I REPEAT I NEED GOODIX TESTERS, THOSE WHO CAN REPORT ME IF ITS WORKING FINE! IN PM OR ON TELEGRAM @KabirKalsi2k
Hey, others OC kernel was not efficient (0 gain in performance ), this OC really improve performance ?

OMG! i was still editing and forgot to reserve thread! you are veryyyyy fast! faster than the kernel i guess!
:silly:

Iam Not Joking IT REALLY DOES INCREASE PERFORMANCE... I play GTA : SA ON MAX SETTINGS WITHOUT ANY LAG AT ALL...
I speak about MOVZX kernel by example which was not a joke too but the theorical frequence changed nothing at performance... I will try it next time I will be on MIUI

yeah! trying wont hurt! iam not that much experienced but your opinions matter the most!
Is there any chance to work on nougat ?
thx

i recommend to not to mess with governors! interactive is best so far! all others doesnt seem to perform as they claim
@KabirKalsi
Stock kernel return error. Do not find a wifi network. Your low CPU is high (883MHz). The charge is like drinking water. How about you make a 200mhz li kernel?

Lte speed too low.
The minimum processor speed must be 200 or 400.
Automatic screen color adjustment must be added.
@KabirKalsi
nice to see new kernel dev on RN3 Pro community
1- the voltage control you are uisng don't work!( i fixed it on my OP3T , but not on my Kate )
2-those CPU O.C frequencies are useless , because bus frequencies remain same.( even O.V won't help )
*newer Qualcomm chips won't overclock ( like old times with SD80x series ) as Qualcomm has locked the chips. only thing we can do is unlock the frequencies which are there ( B Cluster 1840MHz & 1958MHz / L Cluster 1440MHz )*

400mhz and 883mhz takes same amount of power. so it is good to set 883 mhz as minimum
We want to see a kernel with a CPU of 200 MHz.

It seems to work on nougat, but there isnt so much difference when comes to real performance, i mean benchmarks show the same 81k antutu with 20k gpu and 1100SC +3100MC Geekbench 4.. despite both aida and cpuz show the cpu frequencies as you mentioned, 2.38 and 1.71

I don't think so. On my test it's ~12h SoT to 12,5-13h SoT.

Lol, half of an hour, what a difference. But higher clocks reduses lags.
