LineageOS Performance Tweaks - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

I'm really happy with the stability on LOS but scrolling and general usage is a bit choppy. Are there any performance tweaks or kernels that I should consider for a more fluid experience?

try using AKT (Advanced Kernel Tweaks), you will find it under OnePlus 3 section, and give a try to the Burnout Pr3 profile.

Have you tried turning off touchboost ?

No I haven't, I'll give it a shot

Linaro - Optimised 4.0.4 Kernel??

Is this the future for the Note aswell, the Linaro Kernel??
I would love to see this on the Rocket/Stunner rom
http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2012/06/in...ge-to-nearly-double-the-speed-of-android-4-0/
See in the Redit thread that it is incoporated to CM9 and AOSP (Partial)
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/usuym/linaro_build_optimizations_that_can_make_ics_30/
That looks awesome...
Fingers crossed for a port
Sick! Looks very promising
It is good thing to know that some of the implantation and optimization is ported to CM9 kernel.
It's not just kernel, it's userspace. In fact, compiler optimizations applied to the kernel have been shown in the past to give little more than stability problems with negligible performance increases.
Expect an increase in SoDs, crashes, and general instability as this merges.
Also don't expect the performance improvements to be as great as they've been made out to be - they were highly synthetic, I believe a lot of stuff was in software rendering mode without hardware acceleration. hwaccel nullifies many of the software improvements.

so its not all its cracked out to be, will it be merged regardless and is there gonna be a choice whether to use it or not ?
It's awesome, looking forward to it.
The effects aren't very dramatic. Apps open a smidge quicker from a cold start. The app drawer takes maybe a second less to load everything up from a fresh boot.
The performance increase isn't very noticeable.

Any increase is a bonus seeing as the Note isn't completely lag free. I for one would immediately convert to a ROM based on this.

CM9 is already 30-50% faster than stock, so the increase will not be shocking imo.
And no need for more SOD`s
sounds good, but Entropy512's comment deflated my balloon of high hopes from Linaro

So why merge it in the first place? I mean there's currently no solution to SoDs, won't including linaro make it even harder to solve the problem?

Your best combination of kernel & roms for NEXUS 4

Hi everybody,
i´ve started this thread because of getting a view of your experiences of good kernel rom combinations. For every user there are different expectations so i´ve decided to categorize in 3 different sections.
1. Battery Usage
longest battery lifetime - depends on each configuration sure but where did you get the best goal for you
2. Performance
based on user experience - not benchmark
3. Usabiltity
your favourite combination for daily use for balance of performance and speed
Please post for which category you provide your post and write some comments why this is the best combination for you. So let's start to share your experience
:fingers-crossed:
I will start
Battery
For until now is the best combination for battery saving for me this:
Rom: Carbon Rom 1.7
Kernel: Matr1x Kernel 9.0 (non overclocked)
Changing kernel from stock of carbon to matr1x pushed my battery life huge. At this time this is the best combination for me for battery life

Nice idea but:
1. Users all have different setups regarding installed roms,apps, widgets, mods and usage.So its very hard to compare screenontime/batterylife.
2. By performance you mean synthethic benchmarks or user experience?
3. Usability! What do you mean exactly by that?
As said don`t want to nitpick but specify the parameters
Me personaly i use Stock 4.2.2 rom and Franco nightlie r148.

it´s very difficult because of individual configurations and impressions and everybody has to test it on his own but i think it´s good to get an experience what other users prefer Please add a category if it´s possible. That would be nice!
I´ve specified the parameters a bit.
For me PA&AK kernel is the best...I came from Galaxy Nexus btw..

Nexus 4 battery best battery life
So i'm running P.A 3.60 combined with matrix kernel 8.5 on my nexus 4. I used trickster mod to change it to 2 cpus in use only and its still silky smooth and handles all the games i play still. With Gpu overclocked and limiting the 2 cores in use to 1Ghz when i'm barely using the phone plus display set to about 50% brightness (mabye too high for indoor use but i just love the screen), i got 20+ hours with wi-fi on constantly, and using social networks (facebook, whats app, sent about 100 sms in the day, plus 4 hours of call time) with 18% left. I think thats good enough

thank you for your settings. can you detailed explain what modifications you've done in trickster mod?
CPU Cores max frequencies / 4 Cores or??
GPU Cores max frequencies / limited to number of cores?
I want to mess up my battery life
thank you
I use Stock ROM and faux123 15tbm kernel
In dual core mode at a maximum clock of 1728 MHz and minimum of 214 with -100mv of UV I had 16 hours of battery time. 4 hours of screen time with normal use, music, gps, chrome and what's app.
The usability its better than stock kernel.
I never had lag issues or bugs.
My best and only at the moment is CM 10.1 + Franco Kernel.
On 2G, wifi on, auto brightness , I've been getting 40 minutes of screen (browsing, on Facebook, etc) at each 10 percent of battery.

The latest Paranoid Android and Franco kernel
saberMod + sts kernel best combination ever.
For me, I quite enjoy Trinity/Franco/Community Kernel with Carbon, or Trinity and CodeFireX. Both super-high performance ROMs.
Connor Baker
Also, I thought that "best of" threads weren't allowed.
I use latest PA and franco.
Hello. I'm on stock 4.2.2 and enhanced stock faux kernel. Stock is fast and pretty stable in this combination. I want try something different but when I try CM with faux kernel it become unstable. Why I'm using faux kernel? Because I'm using Trickster Mod. Which ROM working good with faux kernels? PA maybe?

i think it's ok. It doesn't evaluate best rom's or kernel's. It evaluate experiences. but if it's not ok - i can change thread title. Thank for the hint :good:
Guys, can you please add the section? Nobody knows for which goal is your combination good! Thanks in advance!
Stock + Franco Nightly
I want a flawless system so I stay on stock Android + I don't have the time to maintain nightly updated ROMs like CM, although I really like CM, especially its free customization... But doing those customization = Eat up my time for studying... So I decide to keep me and my N4 away from them
However I cannot accept the battery life and CPU management of the stock kernel so I chose Franco Kernel. I nearly do not play games and I accept seldom lags. My main use is browsing the web (often open up to 10 tabs ) and texting. My battery usually lasts for one day with ~5 hours of on-screen time and it's satisfying.
Running Carbon 1.7 with the latest Trinity kernel (131). Looks pretty solid so far.
Stock + Motley's kernel, with 2.5 days uptime + 3 hours SOT. Can't complain there.
Carbon 1.7, Franco latest nightlie using the BeastlyBattery power mode. On average 5hours screen on time.

[Q] Best Kernel

Hiii Guys I'm Currently Using Blisspop V2.2 It Was An Awsome ROM Except Its Battery Performance, Since The Xiaomi Released Kernel Sources i've been observing xda mi3 section there are alot of custum kernels thanx to all devs,and i did not try any one so far, so my question is especially by considering Blisspop rom is there any best kernel which improves the battery performance in mi3?? please suggest me and help mee waiting for ur valuble suggestions..!!
Thanku in advanced..!!
Stuxnet+ it is!

I'm using the Stuxnet kernel too - though your question is impossible to answer. It really depends on your use, combined with the governor/min-max processor speeds etc. Most of the kernel variables are accessible for all custom kernels.
Also, what is battery performance? Days on standby, or hours of screen'on time? Browsing or gaming..?
It's very easy to limit battery consumption by reducing screen brightness, running a conservative governor, not using the upper available frequencies etc.
I'd say that they make a bigger difference than swapping between stable kernels.

here in my view battery performance means Screen On Time..!!!
A search would have answered this. There is no best. Try them each out for yourself.

Better ROM or kernel configuration for games?

Hi, I have a one plus 3t and I would like if someone knows a configuration to play, if it exists or something.
Thank you
As long as the Kernel does not underclock your CPU/GPU for Battery Life, any Kernel/ROM should be fine.

That's what I would think. The hardware on this phone is killer. Only bettered by Snapdragon 835 phones (or the upcoming phones for this year).
I wonder if the top poster is having a specific issue with games? Or just looking to tweak/overclock, despite no real issues?

I'm guessing the latter. He's probably on Stock, and he just wants to know if there's any possibility on increasing Performance in Workloads/Games. Nothing much else.
If he does want some recommendations, Caesium Kernel or ElementalX paired with Stock or a highly AOSP based ROM like NOS should do well. Not that the other Kernels or ROMs will be much different, this is just my experience.

right now I am using the z-unleasht, it runs well the games but it was out of curiosity if there was some configuration of Kernel so that it does not drink so much battery and render better
You should try helix engine: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/app-helix-engine-v1-0-beta-3-t3745746/
Then use "AKT balanced" (change in settings). You can choose for every App other profiles -> change it to performance for your games.
Then you have a fast smartphone with great battery life, and performance while gaming.
You need to be rooted

It's not possible to go after battery economy while wanting to perform heavy duty tasks.
It's either one or the other.
Unleashed by my rooted OP3T on 8.0
thanks for the app i am researching to have ..
Hi guys, i have tried many custom kernel such as ElementalX, Flash kernel, Boeffla, Blu_spark, Wolfram..... etc and I still find that my OnePlus 3T can't handle big games..... unstable FPS even at low settings.... and It heats up pretty quick and render the CPU to lower its frequency, etc.....

LKT (Legendary kernel Tweaks) users, what is your experience running it?

So, I still have 4 more days of waiting to be able to unlock my kernel and start this custom ROMs journey.
Has anyone use LKT in the Mi9 already? What do you think about it, did it create noticeable lags, did it increase your battery life drastically?
FDE.AI.... LKT.
All placebo.... IMO

Well FDE.AI actually helped with the usage and performance of an old Redmi 3S, and I sense a little bit less battery consumption using LKT on battery mode on my MI9, specially on wakelocks so.. Who knows?
I've try FDE and my antutu score has been increased to 410k (antutu doesn't really mater)
In real usage SOT is slightly better but i don't know if it's FDE or the new update which increase it.
