Themes / Apps / Mods MOD, Experimenting with Overclocking - Xiaomi Mi 11

Hello there, Ive decided to “overclock” my Snapdragon 888 iGPU. Im using the GPU pretty heavily with emulators like the new AetherSX2 and wanted to give this a try. My problem was the lack of performance with Lineage OS, Kernel seems to clock lower on default. So, this was the best solution for me.
If your Mi11 or other device with SD888 (other chips are supported too) is rooted, you could test this too and could share your results . I will be more focused on my results, here is a good guide with good values to start (table: OC#1 XDA), at the bottom of this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...s-gpu-now-with-root-and-konabess-app.4275089/
What you need: https://github.com/libxzr/KonaBess, this apk allows to give your voltage value (fixed) a frequency. Set the frequency higher with const. voltage = overclocking, set voltage lower with const. frequency = undervolting. You should (please!) make a backup of your vendor_boot.img and save it on your PC, to reset to the default values if your phone isnt stable.
If my theory is true with lower voltage/lower frequency in this kernel, I basically have an undervolted iGPU with nearly the same performance of an SD888. After 20min stress testing in 3D mark or combined with Antutu there is still no thermal throttling. Somehow there should be a reason for the better battery life. So, a higher clockspeeds (nearly stock) with the lower discrete voltages should give a performance boost without sacrificing battery life.
Please be aware that my values could only work for AOSP or LineageOS 18.1 20211105, you should try it with little steps:

My results Antutu and 3d Mark:
It seems that the temperature and the stability is much better, than the stock MIUI Version, as you can see in this video
. Its a comparison between Mi11, S21 Ultra and Mate40Pro with 3D Mark Wild Life Stress Test. Peak performance on the Mi11 is about 5 percent higher, but at the end more than 25% lower due to the thermal throttling. Geekbench shows nearly no difference, it seems that it is more CPU-biased . Would love to hear the reason of all of this, please feel free to share your thoughts. Sorry for grammar or spelling mistakes, English is not my native language.

Hi
I have Xiaomi Mi 10T with Snapdragon 865 with Adreno 650 GPU and 8 GB LPDDR5 RAM and I used Konabess app to Overclock GPU to beat ROG Phone 5 in Vulkan performance.
I used This two tables to overclock to 905-940Mhz.
Adreno 660 is just overclock on Adreno 650 from Snapdragon 865.
If you want more performance look for CAF ROMs like I did.
I'm using Xdroid ROM with is CAF ROM.( CAF stands for the CodeAurora Forum. It is like the name says, an online forum (just like XDA, except, the forum is more for OS developers than flashmaniacs) where Qualcomm releases source codes and patches for their CPUs. Code Aurora is a kind of an initiative in which brands can release the open-source codes for SoCs(CPUs) for future software development. )
First few technical staff.
1000 Gigaflops = 1 Teraflops/TFLOPS
Adreno 650 on 587 MHz has 1202 Gigaflops
Adreno 660 on 840 MHz has 1702 Gigaflops
Adreno 650 on 905 MHz has 1853 Gigaflops
Adreno 650 on 940 MHz has 1925 Gigaflops
You overclock Adreno 660 to 855 MHz so you have 1751 Gigaflops.
You can calculate this very easily
Shading units 512 * freq 0.905 * 4 = 1853 Gigaflops = 1.8 TFLOPS
Compere to home consoles last gen
PS4 has 1.84 TFLOPS
Xbox One S 1.4 TFLOPS
Nintendo switch 1TFLOPS docked and undock around 500 Teraflops.
I overclock my Adreno 650 to 940Mhz giving me performance of SD888 with new drivers OpenGL 604 ( I link below if you want try on SD888 )
Ybf
Performance is incredible just from driver it self. Stock freq 587 MHz gives 4230-4150 score in Wild life just like SD870.
I used 940MHz and 905MHz on TURBO_L0 Voltage.
You can click on any images to get closer view.
Here is AnTuTu before overclock on stock freq 587MHz and 3Dmark Wild life
Now here we go to 940Mhz overclock with GPU.
AnTuTu Score beats Mi 11 and few SD 888 smartphones.
Here is Wild life and Wild life stress test.
Here are bonus 3DMark Sling **** Extreme Unlimited and Geekbench 5 Vulkan Compute test
And here are temp of Red Magic 6 series phones.
And here is temperature of all big SD888 phones to compere.
Here is test which show how many Watts GPU uses.
Overclock to 905-940Mhz with new drivers v604 use 7W on of power without idle screen 0.8W compere to SD888 which is much higher around 1.5W
Gfx Benchmark Manhattan 3.1 off screen 112-115fps with 7W
SD888 GfxBench Manhattan 3.1 off screen 117 fps with 8W-8.5W of power.
Running Genshin Impact on 60fps highest gets 7.2W of power with 58fps almost lock and SD888 uses 8.5-11W to run this game.

Thank you very much, gives much insight. Also it shows the efficiency of the 888, which is actually really bad for a newer gen cpu . Hopefully the competition with Mediateks Dimensity will push the development. 8 gen 1 seems like a disappointment, it probably will throttle like hell.

No Root support Custom MIUI / AOSP actually for Mediatek CPU... So for a lot of people Mediatek = No Way (like Mi 11T...)

Root is supported on any device of Xiaomi just unlock bootloader via Mi Unclock tool and get boot.img of your Rom you can do that even of MIUI without PC or find MIUI version for phone in internet.
When you update phone or you can select to install update again in right corner option you will get zip or your Rom just use rar and extract boot.img and repack it via Magisk app with unlock bootloader you can boot to fastboot and with adb debugging via adb flash boot.img from Magisk and you are rooted.

Maybe he meant the Konabess support, I think there isn't any way to overclock/undervolt a Mediatek CPU.

Yes I think there isn't but Mediatek chips have agresive thermal management so temperature is never high as exynos or Qualcomm

...hum i know that, i'm an active / old Xda users, and root my device from my first Android device in 2010.
When i talk about root it's for rom dev.
I mean Mediatek is not supported by dev... not more, not less. Mediatek is a pity for customers search waiting Custom MIUI or AOSP rom because any dev purpose build on this models.
And i think it's more important for users to have a CPU with a good compatibility with apps/dev/emulation instead choose a Mediatek for a "maybe" better overclock.

I don't know what emulator do you use but there isn't anything on the market with works better with ****s Mali GPU.
Emutation will be always Better for Adreno GPU than Mali GPU because it is incomplete it therms of GPU components and extensions of drivers.

Emulation do not depend only GPU but also CPU... Look like Exynos Samsung problem with emulator like dolphin

Im sorry, but I didn't make a backup of the custom values. It is easier to copy paste the values and probably better to tweak in little steps.

Can you undervolt though leave CPU frequency the same? With less volts though same speeds you should see better performance sure to less thermal throttling. Assuming it can run stable

Yes, you give your core other values. I basically give higher clocks at the same voltage values. But I've tested also lower voltage values at the same clocks and it works. But I don't know how much a increment is in volt. With LineageOS my phone runs already cooler, so I didn't feel the need to undervolt it.

I have successfully modified the default highest clock 840MHz down to 825 with one step down in voltage level (TURBO_L1 to TURBO_L0) and added extra lower clock 251MHz at the same voltage of the default lowest clock LOW_SVS
been using it for few days on pixel experience 12.1 with no issues, just a subtle decrease in gpu score in benchmark..but battery wise I didn't notice any difference

Now if anyone can share a way to edit the CPU voltage without applying custom kernels

What Turbo_L0 ! What the bloody hell ? What you doing?
855MHz NOM_L2
840MHz NOM - NOM_L1 -NOM_L2
830MHz NOM and lower.
...
257MHz Retention fyi ,
Red more about undervolt it must on SD888.

As far as I know 840MHz @Turbo_L1 is the default max clock of adreno 660 which also was the default value in konabess
I only undervolted it once by going one step down in voltage because frankly I don't want the hassle of trial and error..but if you are saying you could boot with even lower voltage with nearly same performance I might give it a try

Not could it works perfectly tested on few hundred devices.
Of course your silicone lottery can be different but -10MHz is worth it to use with NOM aka 830MHz and lower.

[Q] 3D and 2D performance

Hi N7 fellow users
i get MAX 2600 3D and 350 2D in antutu and quadrant though i'm all the time OC the GPU to 520mhz
is that normal ?? i'm running the latest Paranoid Android rom along the latest Franco kernel.
That is about what I get for 3D. If you go to the developer menu you can improve your 2D performance by checking the "Force GPU rendering" . For what it's worth my 2D for Quadrant went to about 1000 after the checking that option.

Thanks for your reply
My htc one X was getting 39xx, 1k higher than my nexus
though they use nearly the same gpu.

quadrant does not measure gpu, it measures fps. and we are limited to 59fps no matter how much we overclock the gpu. use a benchmark like windmill, or basemark taiji, to test your gpu and what tweaking your gpu does. quadrant is an old, out of date benchmark.

i guess i have to forget about all this paranoia coming from the low benchmark scores since every game works xD
(except horn strangely runs about 25 fps it seems, even though i'm oced to 520mhz)
Low of diminishing returns, if you over clock it doesn't mean ull always get higher scores, after ur GPU gets heated up it start to show lower and lower scores.
GPU is stable @ 446 (beyond that when ever it gets heated up it will cause touch and other issues)
Source: Read kernel Developers OP once a while

[DEV][WIP][KERNEL-PATCH][MSM7x30/8x55 GPU OVERCLOCKING][2d-core done][3d-core][v0.7]

Finally after someone pm'd me I looked back into GPU Overclocking.
New thread created issues with old thread OP permissions (people seem to be asking the same questions over and over again all information will be kept in OP & DO READ THE THREAD, repetitive questions will now be ignored)
Benefits:
Smoother UI
Handle 2d & 3d core GPU intensive applications & games
Currently only 2D core has been overclocked working on 3D core OC
2D-core original value - 192mhz OC to 245mhz DONE achieved 25% performance boost grp_2d_clk outputs 245760000hz
3D-core original value - 245mhz OC to 300+mhz WIP hoping to achieve 40-50% performance boost
2D-core OC only Download: Coming soon...
Download Links for other devices coming soon...
Works for all HTC Sense/Cm9/Cm10 kernels (Just ask a kernel developer for your device to implement the source code)
Note: Don't have internet on PC so providing 3 main files that need replaced for 2D-core OC to work
Download link to source code: http://d-h.st/wbH
3D-CORE OC TESTS Download: Coming soon...
Do check under sys/kernel/debug/htc_clock/clks/ look for file with all clocks & look for GRP_clks (Graphics clock)
OK so basically today I've been thinking and I've come to the conclusion that I will release the 2D-core OC patch As Soon As Possible, 3D-core Core OC is NOT Impossible but for now I'll give it a break, I will attempt 3D-core OC If/When I can get a hold of a msm7x30/msm8x55 device, as it will make it much easier for both me & users.
So for now you can enjoy the 50mhz increase/bump up, perf boost 25% in 2D-core (will increase performance in both 2D/3D intensive appications as 2D-core is used for 3D AFAIK and increase User Interface performance (Note: This will not take a hit on battery life)), I will also release a couple of fixes on patchas kernel that shouldnt be there/set etc.
(Theres a device available in my area for roughly £90, if anyone wants to contribute towards getting that device or can donate a device , more than welcome and shoot me a PM so I can list you here.)
(This isnt a promise of 3D-Overclock if you donate, if you donate please do so expecting nothing I will only attempt 3D-overclock)
Working device list - all kernel 3.0+ msm7x30/msm8x55 soc devices.

Sense 3d/2d
Hey,
I'm guessing that the "3d" sense launcher (e.g. sense 4.0), is actually using the 2d core, or is it actually in 3d?
Anyway, 192mhz to 245mhz is a huge difference, looking forward to updates!

Doesnt matter if its using 2d or 3d cause the 2d core is used in both 2d & 3d rendering

Okay after looking @ GPU Overclock for 2 weeks, This is the news on GPU OC for MSM8x55/MSM7x30 socs.
My findings...
2D-core OC from 192mhz to 245mhz successful.
3D-core OC will not happen without me obtaining the datasheet (which is proprietary)
The clocks are protected, via Ownership/Permissions, and maybe an RCU/MPU
No Overclocking the CPU does NOT Overclock the GPU, thats the worst thing I've heard in my life lol.
The lowest the GPU can hit is 192mhz or lpxo freq
Bus is not overclockable, it always is 192mhz
EBI_2D_clk will and has always been 0mhz
Modifying kgsl platform data and/or the graphics table with random values or even calculated values from correct pll freqs will NOT OC the gpu
it's ashame the GPU clocks are protected.
IF anyone is looking to continuing this project and is on the right track you're more than welcome to get in contact with me, especially if you have the msm7x30 datasheet.
The QSD8x50 soc is more open than this soc, so I'm doing a few tests on the HD2

Which of this the best for gaming? I don't care about my battery life or something else, only good optimization for games :laugh:
Also mb someone know how to tune Kernel Adiutor for gaming, is any guides or something else? i don't found any of this for Mi Max 2
It would be great, if u help
Without a custom Kernel, nothing much can be tuned in Kernel Adiutor to achieve higher performance in games. OC-ing the GPU and CPU would be probably the only solution to gain more FPS. All this ROMs are gonna perform similar with the same kernel.

You can't because there is no custom kernel.

optimization for games in kernel adiutor is actually pretty straight forward. just choose performance governor for both cpu and gpu and lock both to the highest possible clocks (cpu minimum and maximum 2016 mhz, gpu min and max 650 mhz). that way they wont be downclocking to save power and ull have max performance always
furthermore, u could change IO scheduler to deadline for faster loading times and disable core control (as well as temperature and vdd control, depending on whether theyre active by default) in thermal tab. just keep an eye on device temperatures, cuz ull be basically removing throttling measures for hardware safety. although i doubt this should be a problem with an soc like SD625 in such a large device, but still...better be safe than sorry

did you change the gpu governor to performance?

Hi, another way to unlock the cpu at its maximal frequence is to use the mod called " unlimited " in the playstore from the mi-globe rom (miui based)
here is the link : http://forum.mi-globe.com/general-development-f34/app-miui-unlimited-t691.html
You can activate it on the fly, very cool. I use this rom

ok i just checked on my phone with LOS 14.1 installed. when u set min and max gpu frequency to 650 mhz and set perfomance profile the gpu will only downclock to 320 mhz if there is no load put onto it. if there is ANY load whatsoever (in my case a simple continuous finger swipe over the display) the gpu clock sticks to 650 mhz and stays there.
so no worries, uve unlocked ur SoC performance completely and ull get the most out of it during gaming
edit: btw, dont let the poll results fool you. most people just go with LOS because thats what they are accustomed to the most and because its been out the longest for mi max 2 as far as custom roms are concerned. so more people voting there doesnt mean its actually faster than other roms (likely that most people havent tried ALL roms, especially for gaming-specific purposes )

I believe that would be dot-os

So, I managed to overclock my GPU to 2 GHz ("TURBO" Profile) with KonaBess and it's rock solid. Have I been extremely lucky or...?

So, I went on a "boredom rampage" and I've read an article about a guy overclocking his 865 GPU to 865 MHz and reaching Adreno 660-levels of performance and I decided to give it a try and it was awesome.
Problem is, I'm too much of a thinkerer and I pushed the GPU as much as I could. I ended up on 2000 MHz with "TURBO" voltage profile and it's rock solid even on 2100 MHz with the same profile but KonaBess gives me an error if I try to edit the GPU tables after I booted at 2100 MHz.
I even edited the clock profiles to make it smoother, starting from 305 MHz to 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000 with the right voltages.
Now, the battery and SoC temperatures are the same, the battery drain is basically the same, some other fellow modders with the same device (Mi 10T Pro 5G 8/256 with Pixel Experience Plus ROM) didn't manage to hit the same clocks, crashing even with 1000 or 1200 MHz, with my file from the KonaBess app.
So, have I been extremely lucky with the silicon lottery or it's just an illusion?
Please ask if you need ANY benchmark or proof. I've been monitoring the GPU clock with Franco Kernel Manager Live Monitoring and the clock is solid at 2000 MHz and the 3D performance has at first jumped and then slowly climbed, especially on 3DMark Wild Life Extreme. Wild Life Extreme Stress Test is stable the temperatures are fine.
Do you guys have any questions/suggestions/requests?
Edit: Here are some 3DMark runs, both Wild Life and Wild Life Extreme at stock and 2 GHz. I use Greenify, my storage is 94% full and all my processes in the background take up 4 GB of RAM and I didn't touch the bus for the various steppings for the clocks, so I believe that if heavily tuned, this could make a difference.

I have the history of all the bench on 3DMark, because I downloaded it just for this. Would that be ok?
it seems fishy, a 1ghz+ oc would increase your fps by more than that.

It doesn't have the biggest of bumps from 900 MHz to 1 GHz or 2 GHz, but still, is capable of doing it and rock solid too.

i don't think your gpu is actually running at 2ghz while you are running a benchmark. going from stock to 2ghz would at least have to give you an extra 20-30 fps in Wild Life.

Not necessarily. The GPU IS running at 2 GHz but I think that the problem might be some diminishing returns where the clock doesn't mean anything after a certain point.
Are you try locking the freq on 2ghz in Kernel maneger ? Set min and max to 2gzhz with performance governor .

I've made various frequency steps. 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000 MHz. But if I change the governor, after I reboot, it will be msm-adreno-tz again. Max frequency is still 2000 MHz and minimum 400 MHz.
Yes after reboot is resets like on every phone you have to check apply on boot and select min 2000GHZ and max 2000ghz GPu freq in tap in FKM and set gov to performance and do benchmark like 3dmark wild life . Like that. And in Smart pack Kernel manager free app is GPU throttle turn that off.
Check box apply on boot and after boot will be apply.
And that you can show improvements of OC

Thanks What is temperature ? Do you game with that or this just experiment ?
Temperatures are roughly the same. I do game with that. On normal games, frequency stays at 400 MHz, but on really heavy games like Genshin Impact, completely maxed out, depending on the scene, the GPU goes to 1.6 or 1.8 GHz and rarely at 2 GHz during some heavy cutscenes. 3DMark keeps it at 2 GHz all the time.

Hello, excuse my ignorance, but I want to learn what konabess is, it's an app or a magisk module, I also have the xiaomi mi 10t pro with DotOs rum android 11 and then I want to play more fluently, could you help me
konabess app is software you can overclock GPU and undervolt.
You need root and that it.

Here tutorial but it old I need make new one because there isn't good one tutorial about it.
This doesn't make any sense. Why would Qualcomm leave so much on the table ?

Xiaomi Mi 10T with Snapdragon 865 beats ROG phone 5 with GPU Overclock

Hi
I have Xiaomi Mi 10T with Snapdragon 865 with Adreno 650 GPU and 8 GB LPDDR5 RAM and I used Konabess app to Overclock GPU to beat ROG Phone 5 in Vulkan performance.
If you need anything help here is my new group on Telegram for support in Adreno GPUs and performance staff.

Adreno 660 is just overclock on Adreno 650 from Snapdragon 865.
If you want more performance look for CAF ROMs like I did.
I'm using Xdroid ROM with is CAF ROM.( CAF stands for the CodeAurora Forum. It is like the name says, an online forum (just like XDA, except, the forum is more for OS developers than flashmaniacs) where Qualcomm releases source codes and patches for their CPUs. Code Aurora is a kind of an initiative in which brands can release the open-source codes for SoCs(CPUs) for future software development. )
First few technical staff in all FP32
1000 Gigaflops = 1 Teraflops/TFLOPS
Adreno 650 on 587 MHz has 901 Gigaflops
Adreno 660 on 840 MHz has 1290 Gigaflops
Adreno 650 on 905 MHz has 1390 Gigaflops
Adreno 650 on 940 MHz has 1443 Gigaflops
You can calculate this very easily
Shading units 768 * freq 0.940 * 2 = 1443 Gigaflops = 1.44 TFLOPS
Compere to home consoles last gen
PS4 has 1.84 TFLOPS
Xbox One S 1.4 TFLOPS
Nintendo Switch docked is 393.2 GFLOPs and undocked 196.6 GFLOPS which uses ARM cores so it great device to compere.
Is Gigaflops good performance metric between different architecture ?
Yes it is a good performance metric , other bottlenecks can be present - but its a good raw performance metric.
Real world performance may differ due to architectural differences and many things.
New Update looks like Adreno 650 and Adreno 660 has 768 ALU not 512 like everyone on internet says.
If you want test your Gifaflops install Clpeak on Google Play Store
Yes Xiaomi Mi 10T with 940MHz GPU OC is 10x times more powerful than Nintendo Switch.
I overclock my Adreno 650 to 940Mhz giving me performance of SD888 with new drivers OpenGL 604 ( attachment below if you want try on 855/865/SD888 two versions)
Performance is incredible just from driver it self. Stock freq 587 MHz gives 4230-4150 score in Wild life just like SD870.
I used 940MHz and 905MHz on TURBO_L0 Voltage.
You can click on any images to get closer view.
Here is AnTuTu before overclock on stock freq 587MHz and 3Dmark Wild life
Now here we go to 940Mhz overclock with GPU.
AnTuTu Score beats Mi 11 and few SD 888 smartphones.
This is newest Otherworld kernel and 925MHz GPU and Wild life Benchmark with stress test.
​
Wild life Street test
Here are bonus 3DMark Sling **** Extreme Unlimited and Geekbench 5 Vulkan Compute test
And here are temp of Red Magic 6 series phones.
And here is temperature of all big SD888 phones to compere.
Here is test which show how many Watts GPU uses in 865vs888.
Overclock to 905-940Mhz with new drivers v604 use 7W on of power without idle screen 0.8W compere to SD888 which is much higher around 1.5W.
SD888 GfxBench Manhattan 3.1 off screen 117 fps with 8W-8.5W of power.
Gfx Benchmark Manhattan 3.1 off screen 112-115fps with 7W
Running Genshin Impact on 60fps highest gets 7.2W of power with 58fps almost lock and SD888 uses 8.5-11W to run this game.
Update: Newest versions of drivers v614v2 and 615v2 recommended Via TWRP flashble drivers or possible via Magisk modules overlayfs.

Here is 905Mhz and 940Mhz with underclock to 150Mhz with lowest voltage Retention.
safest is 905-150MHz
If you have problems with heat or anything else you can use 870-150Mhz.
Should give 12 hours of SOT Normal use.
Update Here is new configs with better battery life and performance.
Damn ! if even gaming phones are having trouble to keep the SD888 cool, Qualcomm really screwed up this time.
Anyway, are those zip files flashable throw TWRP or Magisk ? and are adreno drivers linked to the version of android or will it work with any version (i'm currently at android 10) ?

Zips are Magisk Module and work Android 11+ so Android 12 as well.
If you have any crashing use [email protected][email protected] work great on few devices.
Android 11 has stock drivers OpenGL v502 so if you yet don't have Android 11 you are missing huge improvement in GPU performance and games.
