It's really annoying that there's these framedrops all over the software, and the phone never runs a 100 percent smooth because of it.
Snapchat and YouTube are the worst in my opinion. Ir's gibberish mix from 60 to 120 hz and it makes the phone feel incredibly slow and bugged.
I searched everywhere, tried every little thing to force 120 hz, like it was possible on OxygenOS 11 still.
No mod is working anymore. What a dealbreaker to be honest.
Do any of you think that there is hope? I saw in this AndroidPolice post at the end that arter97 ("AutoHz") might have found a fix for Android 12 and will update the app sooner or later. That was almost 5 months ago now though.
Any hope? I'd go that far to set up a bounty of 100$ for anyone who can provide a working fix.

I know on precious devices you can on root. Is that not the case anymore?
You can already do this, there's a mod for it..have had it installed, just can't remember where it is.

No way?! Wow you're a life saver! No idea how I overlooked that lol. Does it have to be set up every reboot or not? And do you think it will have a huge negative impact in battery life?
Also dm me ur paypal I'll give you 10$ for the help
@dladz sry for pinging but you seem to know quiet some stuff abt the 10 pro. one other issue is really bugging me.
whenever I use an app like chrome, gmail etc... and leave the app with the "home button" (to keep it in ram), then revisit the app 10 seconds later, I will be greeted with the splash screen and the app acts like I just now opened it.
it won't stay open in the background it seems.
any help for that?

No worries man.
But yep I'm having the same issue buddy, seems like the close apps for saving battery is super aggressive, I have the same issue when I'm trying to copy days from one's app to another..
Really haven't found a fix as yet..13 is exactly the same.. It's absolutely pants mate.

2 methods to Forcely Enable 120hz or any you wish..
1. Install Lsposed from Magisk
2. In LSposed Install "Lucky Tool" for Oneplus
3. Enable Scope for Recommend Apps and Reboot
4. Select You desired refresh rate at xx Resolution..

I get told that when I jump into an abyss on BO3
Using this app since long, works perfect. Select the 1st option, if 120 hz is not sticking just select the 2nd option and then select the 1st option back.
Another way : you just need to run a command with root previlege every reboot (which can be easily automated with magisk)
Code:
service call SurfaceFlinger 1035 i32 13
On my 8T, I use a magisk module to force 120Hz. But 10Pro have different display modes so this module itself won't work. You need to check display modes by running command
Code:
dumpsys SurfaceFlinger | grep hwcId
this is the output from 9Pro.
edit the service.sh inside the module to choose display mode id you like
Also, set persist.oplus.display.vrr=0 to reduce some frame drops (module also does that)
I think this method can be used on any android device if you can get root but haven't tested myself.

Thank you but I find the option that dladz gave, a bit more convenient. Good to know though, that there's multiple options!
One thing, do you know any fix for the agressive background killing of apps? It bugs me so much that apps like chrome or gmail are closed withing literal seconds after I leave them.
I already tried disabling every possible optimisation but it didn't help.

Recently I opened an AOSP bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82922
This concerns the nexus 5's panel not reaching a full 60hz, or even within the range of error of CVT timings typically used in displays. Vsync timestamps are in the range of 58.6hz to 58.8hz, and the result is disastrous: stuttering. The problem is that timing loops assume the display is pretty close to 60hz, and try to synchronize to an even division of that. But waiting for vsync takes too long, and these programs skip frames--about 1 frame every 2/3 second --to keep up.
As a result, games aren't smooth at all. They hiccup regularly when smooth motion is attempted. Note that this isn't universally apparent; programs without an internal timer like the browser, launcher, or even some games, might just refresh whenever the vsync is ready, which is presumably how this was missed by the devs at LG/Google. 2D games suffer the worst.
I've tried to fix this. My initial suspicions lied with the initialization code and timings in the panel device file in the kernel, but I can't seem to make a difference with any changes to it.
So, I'd appreciate any help I can get with this. If anyone experienced in this area of kernel development has any suspicions about this, post them.
I'd also like some other people to test this if they can. I actually measured the timestamps from /sys/devices/virtual/graphics/fb0/vsync_event to confirm this is on the kernel level, but an easier way is to download the RetroArch app from the play store and use the calibrate refresh feature in the settings. I'm particularly looking for results from Cyanogen kernels, as those modify the msm dsi framework.
It'd also help to star the bug and try to get the Google devs' attention on this.
Thanks
tried turning off v-sync? it may be preventing you from reaching full 60hz, if you could give measurement of the said log file, for 60hz you should be getting something around, 5/3 sec? try playing back videos of various fps starting from 60-200

Vsync is the only method by which we can measure the actual refresh rate of the panel. There's no other way. That's not a log file, either, it's the sysfs interface by which the userspace layer polls the vblank interval start.
The panel is generating vblank interrupts at slightly over 17ms intervals. That equates with < 58.8hz.
Yes, 60fps videos suffer, too. There's no way to fit 60 unique frames into a display that can only show 58.6 or so of them every second without omitting one every ~2/3 second. 30fps videos either take twice as long to accumulate enough error, and stutter forward 34ms every 4/3 seconds, or still poll at 60hz and display one frame for 1 panel refresh every 2/3 seconds. It depends how the application was written.
Normal NTSC timing would be at minimum around 59.94hz--that's an acceptable level of error for a display, and would theoretically generate a stutter only every 17 seconds, but the leeway on the timing means it generally won't.
A discrepancy of 1.4hz (2.3%) is quite ridiculous for precision hardware like this. This bug heavily affects user perception, even if they don't know what's causing it. ("Android apps aren't as smooth as IOS", etc.)

Sorry, that's backwards, it should be 1 panel refresh. So the frame cadence ends up as 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2...

They all start at low priority. Unfortunately, only Google devs can elevate it. With the amount of spam the bug tracker gets, it's obvious why.

Thanks a lot. It looks like the updated kernel driver stack does makes some difference. This makes me confident that it isn't a limitation in the display controller and can indeed be fixed.

im not a kernel developer but,
the file you said on the bug tracker page is exactly the same between cm12 and google sources (got from msm-hammerhead-3.4-l-release)
but i noticed there are some specific files for specific nexus 5 revisions, including a lcd driver. for instance, mine is rev 11 E (my first was rev 11 H), on these 2,i can´t run any rom older than release KRT16S (not even KRT16M)or else i get a yellow line at the center of my screen, so it could be that the problem is a hw problem for specific revs? or just a driver problem but again, for specific revs?

As far as I know, there's two retail screens the Nexus 5 uses, both JDI/Orise combos, so I don't think there's much difference.
Most of the settings in that file I've found to be snake oil--they're overridden by the driver. I was referring to that. It's located in drivers/video/mdm/mdss.

E and H are Elpida and Hynix, it's just the brand of the memory used in your device. One other person (ONLY one) has also reported a "HJ" brand memory but I have no idea what that would be.

For anyone that has been struggling to remove this damn app (com.samsung.android.game.gos), I found the solution (atleast for me on my S20FE (G781B). It goes without saying you WILL need root enabled on your device for this method!
Fair warning you do this at your own risk
Go to the Googleplay and install 'File Explorer (by jrummy) ', or download it from apkmirror. Then open up the app and go to root then system then priv-app - /system/priv-app
There will be a folder in there called 'GameOptimizationService', select the folder and then select delete.
Then via adb, check and remove the app again, you should get a 'failure' message meaning its already been removed so you will never see a toast popup error agaib (happy days) -
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.games.gos - see below for revissed instructions
Now as I find the theme app & service pointless I have gone and remove that also, but I will need to monitor is long term to see what side effect (if any) that will have. The upside is it removes is from the list in the settings app.
[update] Courtesy of @justin22 we now know you don't have to remove the app just use an alternative method to hide - 'pm hide com.samsung.android.games.gos' This will have the same effect, as in stop the app from running in the background which then stops the annoying popups.
Moved this to its own post to make it easier for people to find -

Ah Sweet, thanks for that. Have been looking for that for a while, didn't occur to me to click on that button, doh!
This worked well on Tab S7.. Thanks
Great that you found a solution, too bad it has to be on a rooted phone.
The only reason i won't root my phone is beacuse of using samsung pay and some banking apps
I still hope samsung will eventually come to its senses and either fix this GoS crap or allow us to completely remove it
It's driving me nuts that i cant play games without lag on my phone (Galaxy s9+)
Hi @b1k3rdude
I am using a galaxy Tab S4 with android 10. Not rooted. Root privileges caused me more hassle than benefits so I flashed the stock image again. I also went thru the painful and deep debloating process. I would love to send you my debloat list, if you'd like to review it.
If I remember correctly I left the 3 gos apps. Dunno why. Are you telling me that if I remove them, my GPU won't throttle anymore?
The only way I could make the GPU stop throtthling was with mtweaks. I set the clock speeds to max. But the temps went crazy. But hey, I got no major framedrops from 60 to 40-30 like I was having before.
I have recently bought a Tab S7 hoping that the frame drop thing was gone. I was wrong. Same game (Rules Of Survival), same maxed out settings (max quality, max resolution, max FPS, no shadows, no MSAA), same debloat (on the S7 I deleted the GOS stuff too but not the system folder you mentioned) and I was still experiencing frame drops. Not as bad as before but they were still there. And you know what?! Lowering the settings did not improve AT ALL the performance. I have already returned the S7 because it had some weird touchscreen problems.
I think I might stick with the S4 until some Chinese company won't come out with a nice and powerful android tablet. Lenovo has got the P11 PRO but it's less powerful that the S7 and it costs more LOL. But without all that Sammy crap it might perform better.
My OnePlus Nord can handle Rules Of Survival ways better than my Tab S4 and similarly to what the Tab S7 was doing.
Edit: back in the days when I rooted the S4 I was talking to a friend of mine who addressed me to that damn thing called DVFS that downclocks the GPU when it's under load causing those massive framedrops.
I remember that DVFS nonsense. games would perform wonderfully for about 10 seconds then turn to crap. it was a cheat for better benchmark scores if I recall the theories of the day.
tell me Samsung doesn't still use that ?

I don't play games on my phones, so I cant help you there I am afraid (I have a high end desktop PC for gaming).
I just didn't want the service running in the background, constantly complaining via toast notifications that some Samsung apps/services it wanted weren't running.
com.samsung.android.games.gos doesnt need to be deleted/removed
a simple
pm hide com.samsung.android.games.gos
kills the app without changing anything,besides the state of the package.
pm hide is great for stuff that ignores pm disable !!
its as if the package was removed.

Ah cool, thanks for that, I will add this to the OP.
This no makes me wonder how many other apps you could do this on, for example could we get away with this on com.samsung.android.kgclient for example without causing a softlock..?
I would test this, but cant untill twrp for this device get updated with external sdcard support. [update] - you can backup/restore to an external USB drive (I went and bought a USV-C to NVME enclosure and a 256GB SSD for this.
nah,I wouldnt touch that one (kgclient) ... another app I tried to hide was com.ims(service).something... but the system got sluggish,and I was glad that I could enable it again.
pm hide is like it was uninstalled,but the package remains...so be CAREFULL !!!!!!!!
I use automagic for my trial and errors.
I build a flow which consists of <disable/hide package> - <timer : 60sec> - <enable/unhide package>
its kind of a failsafe.if nothing happens.. GREAT and I stop the flow,if the system gets buggy but not rebooted,then after 60secs the package is active again.
also I add the <enable/unhide package> action to the autostart flow.. hoping that this would get executed even if the lockscreen is locked (not sure though about this one).
Later I add a label in titaniumbackup to the frozen apps,so I hope that I can restore (refreeze) frozen apps if I should EVER have to do a factory reset again.
Without TWRP my desire to freeze anymore packages is kinda low,as I always have to accept to do a factory reset if I disable the wrong package
Btw.. when there will be a TWRP (T870).. you dont have to do a factory reset when flashing the twrp package right ??

Same, I know @afaneh92, is working on getting ext. SD card support atm.
If its an updated version of twrp, you just flash from ODIN. You DO NOT have to touch the phone (eg doing factory reset and such).
thanks for the info !
I looked for a TWRP for SM-T870,but I didnt find anything (only S7+).
So there is a TWRP for T870,just without xSDsupport right now ?
If so where can I find it/OR is there a post where I can check for progress/or info (when its ) available ?
@justin22 I just had a check myself, there's no development of TWRP posted here for you.
from android 10 released devices onwards TWRP development is much harder. google has changed the way partitions are organised from what I've read. root is more involved now too. development on lots of Samsung devices has slowed right down. we need devs to own these devices I think to be motivated. we're looking at months of waiting especially with bootloader unlock in the US not being free for now.
@3mel : again thanks for the info !
When I got my S7,I couldnt shake the feeling that this will be my last Samsung device.Alone the ****ty warning screens every time I reboot,all the crap installed,and pointless apps/processes you cant get rid of without bricking the whole thing (kgclient(payment),...).
And now no TWRP...

Same, each time SS keep making it harder for use to root and flash custom recovery and roms to our devices.
You can flash boot animations to remove this.
We have TWRP, just no Ext SD card support atm. And without an S20FE the dev cant work on this :-(
do you have a tutorial /thread/link for boot ani flash &/or T870 TWRP (even without SDcard support) ? (I couldnt find ANY twrp for the T87xx(S7) series,only the T97xx (S7+)

I had a look and there was nothing on this site, other than the TWRP site there's no other place I'd trust if they said they had it. best thing might be to ask in the other tab 7 TWRP threads if they'd be compatible with SM-T870 or if they could made so.
if that's the newest sexy tab with the S-pen you've got, it should have a few users who feel the same way. also check whether it has a locked bootloader, that'll be a big factor if half the world's devs can't flash test builds.
TWRP development sounds like a real pig of an affair nowadays
TWRP and Android 10
Please note that this post is primary related to TWRP and the Pixel 3 and 4 and devices that may ship in the future that ship with Android 10 as their origin...

com.samsung.android.games.gos doesnt need to be deleted/removed
a simple
pm hide com.samsung.android.games.gos
kills the app without changing anything,besides the state of the package.
pm hide is great for stuff that ignores pm disable !!
its as if the package was removed.

Just tried this but got a security exception thrown. A quick search explained that Google actually removed hide a while ago?
If anyone has an alternative that would be great. Disable doesn't work for game services as it restarts straight away.
I just do not get it, there are so much good things in software but why for gods sake they have to be installed from galaxy labs? I have the phone for couple of months, just now discovered that we have something like sound assistant, keys cafe and many more. Why Samsung can't just add those features into the build?
Others are complaining Sammy puts in too much.... Now the choice is yours whether or not to install!
People complain about apps and the inability to remove them.
goodlock and stuff are just features in the sense some of them could just be implemented in the core features of the OS.
for example I just use Keys Cafe to remove the WWW option from the samsung keyboard as its annoying because it makes the space bar smaller and end up hitting the dot everytime.

That's my point, all of those features should be available in OS natively. Such a stupid thing, when we have submenu for lets say Keyboard and we have to install additional application to add just 4 options, same thing with sound. Full submenu, but things like Bluetooth delay etc must be added by additional application. It just doesn't make sense, even if they are "afraid" that some people may "brake" the phone, just add something like advanced options and put all of those features there, and they could be even turned on/off by flipping single button in options.
1. Power users dislike bloat and what you are wishing for will translate to bloat or unneeded features for people who do not use it or need it. TouchWiz all over again.
2. Apps used to be included into the ROM update which caused delays for bug fixes and new features being available to users so updates are faster via the app stores
3. You don't need to use the Galaxy Store if you don't want to. All Samsung apks are a search away on apkmirror.com. They can also auto update if you install their app

Why only in USA?

Don't know what your country is, but Good Lock is available in Galaxy Store in Europe too, for sure in The Netherlands. Check Galaxy store not Play Store.

You do not get the point. Most of those functions should be built into ROM. Not as apps, even I didn't know that some of them exist...
Also blending them into rom will not make it sluggish, not sure where did you get this from but you are wrong

He is right.
You have the choice to install it if you want to.
For the ones who do not, they don't have anything to do.
It's better and easier this way around.
For example, the only add-on I use is One Hand Operation, so I'm not gonna be glad if I find 200 other options and don't know how to turn them off.

That's a lot of functionalities that could be bugged, use resources, be turned on... etc...
This is not a lack if you can install them.
I understand your point but you have to understand that Samsung's are designed for everyone, not power users.
Those people do not want options, they just want a working phone out of the box. They can be lost if they have too many thing to understand.
So if you want more, you can, that's all you need to know.

Wellness for me your arguments make 0 sense as you miss one basic thing which I mentioned twierdzi. People do not know that such things exist! Also thats why we have Beta tests so they can fix bugs. But nice 1200usd Phone and we must install additional functions form the stare, where we do not even know ghat they exist. On top of that, 90% of those functions existed 10 years ago in Cyanogenmod mod made by amateurs during free time...

Once again, I don't know why you are complaining.
You know that they exist, so install every module you want and that's it.
You want a system where everything is already there, but maybe some are not okay with that.

1. I am complaining as those options should be melt into system by default, there is nothing preventing them from doing it.
2. I know NOW, but terenie was no info anywhere that such options can be added so plenty of people do not know about them.
3. I would like to know why they do not want them by default. Lets say I do not want AoD build info rom. Can we have it removed and have it available as app in galaxy stare? Seriously think, if you have an option YOU DO NOT have to use it, so how someone might say "I do not want to have optional thing in my phone", what a strange logic or lack of it.

It's probably to reduce space as not everyone is going to use all the goodlock modules. If they were built into the system users would be angry at the fact they are taking up storage and resources when it's much better to have the goodlock app and choose what you want.

100mb more when phones have 128GB+ and Rom itself is 4gb? There are so many bloatware apps which cannot be uninstalled and you think it is to save the space lol? Heh that make so much sense.

But they would not be an bloatware but rather system functions. I się noone complain a about and, Dolby etc
What if Samsung would put a list of those apps with a short description both in the User manual and one app on the desktop to control installing the extras.
1) Introduction
I recently acquired a Find X3 Pro Lensman edition and wanted to share the few tweaks that I operated on it, seeing that some people were also relying on importation for the Find X3 Pro.
As I used ADB to operate the majority of the changes you'll see next, I invite you to follow the XDA guide to install it, or the official Android documentation.
For a quick resume of the command lines that will be used, you can visit this link to have a quick explanation on what they are doing.
Don't forget to activate the dev options and the USB debugging before throwing yourself in the debloating process (also know that ColorOS might deactivate by itself for security reasons, so you might have to reactivate it from time to time, but after some reactivation, ColorOS will let it stay, strange behavior, but be aware that it can happen).
2) Debloat list
These packages will be uninstalled through the ADB command line
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 your.package.name
Basic stuff (that you can replace for better options)
com.heytap.music
com.heytap.yoli
com.finshell.wallet
com.oplus.pay
com.heytap.browser
com.sohu.inputmethod.sogouoem
com.coloros.calendar
com.coloros.weather.service
com.android.contacts
com.nearme.instant.platform
com.iflytek.speechsuite
com.heytap.quicksearchbox
com.opos.ads
com.oplus.cosa
com.android.mms * (setting another default SMS/MMS app will result in warning prompts everytime you try to send something with the replacement app, to reinstall it, use the following command:
Code:
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.android.mms
)
Breeno related packages (ColorOS voice assistant, only works with CN language)
com.coloros.ocrscanner
com.coloros.directui
com.heytap.speechassist
com.coloros.assistantscreen
com.coloros.colordirectservice
com.coloros.floatassistant
com.oplus.ovoicemanager.wakeup
Don't forget to install replacement apps for contacts, phone, SMS and browser.
You can uninstall most other of the OPPO proprietary apps or CN bloat apps with a basic uninstallation directly performed from your smartphone, and most of them are restorable through ColorOS (Parameters > Apps > Restore deleted system apps) if you realize you've done something wrong.
3) Various tips and observations
From my personal experience, the PEEM00 units cannot use a third-party launcher consistently, even when set up through ADB. I tried to add various launchers (Nova, Nothing, Lawnchair 2, etc.), but they never appeared in the default launcher selection list. I managed to trick the system with
Code:
adb shell cmd package set-home-activity "com.teslacoilsw.launcher"
, but Nova wasn't able to fully take over and the "back home" gesture was alternating between ColorOS launcher and Nova.
I've thought about unlocking the bootloader to push Nova (or any other launcher) as a system app, but it might be an overkill solution.
OPPO is having a very angry "energy management" process, so you'll need to manually change the optimisation for the apps you want to persist in the background (personally, I changed pretty much everything to "Always ask"). You'll find the app list in Battery > Advanced parameters > Optimize battery usage.
If you want to deactivate the use of 5G bands and only use 4G+ and lower bands, you'll have to select the corresponding optimization recommendation in Settings > Battery > * recommended optimizations (top banner) > Disable 5G.
To add Google services, you'll have to load the Play Store with the com.android.vending package. You'll find it easily across the web, just make sure you download it from a trusted provider (I installed mine from APK Mirror).
OPPO doesn't seem to have released the sources for the Find X3 Pro to this day, which is a little disappointing, as I'd really like to see crDroid on it, but the smartphone in itself is quite enjoyable to use as is (moreover, the microscope lens wouldn't be usable this easily, as the OnePlus 9 Pro camera app is already requiring proprietary packages and vending folders to work properly, and it seems to use the same requirements and system packages as its OPPO brother).
To easily find the packages names, I highly recommend using Solid Explorer to check the system apps list directly on the Find X3 Pro while you debloat through your terminal on the side.
I'll surely edit this post as I find new items to add, modify, etc. Feel free to suggest your own modifications, I'll gladly look into it.
Redacted under update PEEM00FLU_11_C.08, some details might change depending on your own version (available packages, paths, etc.).
Edit 1 (22/06/2022) : added some packages in the debloat list and separated the Breeno (CN voice assistant) related ones from the general ones.
Edit 2 (26/06/2022) : added more packages and reinstalled com.android.mms, added a few tips.
Thanks for this. will try debloating my PEEM00
For some weird reason, when I uninstalled Quick Search Box (com.heytap.quicksearchbox) my PEEM00's home launcher now has this strange icon in the left (probably related to quick search box or pictorial, iirc). It doesn't let me swipe to the left (lol) and the animation of the swipe is gone. It actually doesn't bother me, because untill now the phone is working properly

Think that you may have to reinstall it if you need Google Assistant or Lens.
I'd recommend you to search on the web with their names, you'll usually find your answer easily, but yes, some packages are too Chinese to be widely known outside of this country and you might struggle finding solid clues for some of them.

The strange thing is that you can normally disable the Discover panel on other phones (which completely hides the option), but I can't manage to find the option on the PEEM00 (be it in the Google app or the phone's settings).

TDP TweaksIGNORE THE VERSION NUMBER THAT SHOWS IN MAGISK. I FORGOT TO CHANGE IT WHEN I PUSH THE RELEASEDetails
Version: 1.4.04
Platform API: 31+
Android Version: 12+
Magisk Version: 25.2+
Source Code: https://gitlab.com/kp-development/android/tdp-tweaks
This is a Magisk module that attempts to modify some settings and tweak some services for better device performance, better battery management, and better privacy.
It modifies some system settings, and then attempts to disable analytics services, ad services, diagnostic services, and tracking services. Due to the nature of these services, the disablers will run every 4 hours based on the time you last rebooted your device.
If there are packages you need to exclude from this, you can add them to your /data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/tdp-excludes file; line by line; and they will be skipped. There are no defaults, and we will attempt to do this for every app installed on your device including system apps.
If you need help/support with this module, you will need to turn on debugging. To do this, all you have to do is create a file in /data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/ called: tdp-debug. The module will pick this up and start logging on it's next run. If you need the log right away, reboot your device after creating it.
Everything except the kernel tweaks should work on any device on Android 12 and up, though I only have a OnePlus 11, so I am only able to test them out on that. Your mileage may very, but if you have something else, and it works on that, please make sure to let me know.
NOTE: I cannot and will not be held responsible for bricks, world takeovers, or nuclear warfare. As such, installing this mod is completely on you. If you do not want this, do not flash it.

SettingsOfficially, there are no settings because this is only a set of shell scripts. Albeit, I did put in some logic to check for certain files in the mods directory to turn on/off some of them, as well, as exclude some packages and enable debugging... so ... follow along.
/data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/tdp-debug: This file will enable logging of all actions to the following location: `/data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/log.txt` If you have any issues with this module, I will be asking you for this log file...
Remove the file to turn this off
/data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/tdp-excludes: This file will be read line-by-line in order to exclude packages from the "disabler" scripts. If you find some apps no longer work for you, you may want to add them in here to be skipped over...
This file is empty by default
/data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/tdp-settings: This file will enable some system settings tweaks.
This file is included by default
Remove this file to turn this off
The following sections are enabled by default. Remove the line if you want to disable one
battery: enables the battery tweaks
performance: enables the performance tweaks
display: enables the display tweaks
feedback: enables the feedback tweaks

This only runs once
If you need to run it more than once, remove this file: /data/add/modules/tdp-tweaks/.compilerran
This can cause issues with some apps.
Either uninstall the app, and reinstall it: or,
put a file here: /data/add/modules/tdp-tweaks/tdp-undocompile and reboot
Requesting SupportFirst things first, I do this for myself and no-one else, and have simply decided to share it. I don't owe you anything, so if you demand anything from me, you will either be ignored, or reported, or both.
Thus said, I cannot help without logs, so make sure that when you ask for help that you have turned on debugging for it (see above), you post the log. At the very least I will need a Magisk log, which you can find in the management app. Also helpful would be the log this module writes to (if you have enabled debugging)... it is located here: /data/adb/modules/tdp-tweaks/log.txt. Also helpful would be a logcat, please google how to get this, as I will not hold anyones hand.
You can either file an issue in my repo, or reply to this thread on XDA.
BootloopingThis is actually pretty easy to recover from. If it happens to you, please follow these steps to recover... also note, this does not just go for my module, but any magisk module that you may end up bootlooping with.
Hold your power button until you power off.
Once your device is off, press the power button and when the boot animation starts, press and hold your volume down, and keep holding it until it boots.
Once you are in Safe Mode (you will know as your homescreen will show it), simply reboot your device. Magisk detects safe mode and disables all modules.
Please note, and this is very important: YMMV
This process may be different for your device, but there is this great thing called the internet, and that can help you. Here, this is as much hand holding as you are going to get: https://www.google.com/search?q=how+do+I+boot+my+android+phone+into+safe+mode

NOTICEI no longer have my Raven (my wife does), so I can no longer test on it. However, the updates I post should continue to work on it as most of them will be QOL improvements.
Please PM me if you want to be a tester.
In The WorksAn app to control the enabling/disabling/exclusions of the tweaks.
NON ROOT VERSIONYou may be able to still utilize some of these tweaks if you are not rooted. I've only tested this on the wife's Raven (she's not rooted, and won't let me ) Understand, this does not and cannot include any of the disablers from the full package. It's because the disablers require root.
Make sure you have at least version 33.0.3 of the SDK tools on your machine and it's setup to use those.
Google how to do this if you do not know how.
Plug your phone into your PC
Open command/shell/whatever you use for it...
Make sure your device is recognized with: adb devices
If it's not google how to enable ADB Debugging for your device, and enable it.
Download the attached script and make sure you are in your shell in that location.
Run: adb push adb.sh /sdcard/
Next Run: adb shell sh /sdcard/adb.sh and let it do it's thing
You may get some Java errors towards the end of the run... just ignore them
Profit
A must have magisk module.
Update after using this for few days, enabled everything minus tdp-adservices.
Device feels slightly snappier, even if animations are set back to normal.
Battery has improved, played Star Rail for 2h at max settings and still managed to get 6:13h sot, I'm mind blown.
Will try full day out and see how it does too.
I don't get past 5:30h under normal usage without gaming, no matter what, actually this is the first time I see 6h screen on time on my device.
P6Pro, EvoX - functional, we'll see how it behaves
animations, app loading seems faster to me. Possible?

I'm on latest A13 stable with kirisakura kernel, phone has been 100% stable and perfectly working for weeks, won´t update anything so I can see if this creates any issue or changes anything and report back, been using it for an hour and so far so good, it's nice to see new contributions!
(Edit, first log if you wanna check, everything is alright and working well here, maybe it feels even faster?)

Appreciate it. Glad it feels faster for ya
Gonna look into those exceptions in the next few days. Have you had a chance to "turn on" the other modules?

Hey, nope, installed and enjoy, did no more, if you want me to try something tell me, I had some services disabled already like Digital Wellbeing and so, maybe that's creating some issues in the log as I did something the module wanted to do, a log from someone else might be different
I've been running Foobar66's analytics and firebase disabler since it was released. This looks like a updated and more modern solution. They are essentially the same thing though, right?

Interesting. Didn't know about that one. Just going on the description it appears to be similar, the exception would be that I automate it... IF the modules are enabled.

Yeah I really like his mod and terminal options, easy commands to run through system or user apps. I just flashed a fresh image with radioactive kernel, I'll throw this on top and give it a run.

mine does em all, but only if you create the files like I mention in the OP.
Basically, I just grab a list of packages, and try to loop through each checking for a string in the associated package classes. Like: "analy" for anything with Analytics, "adserv" for AdServices, etc...
By default, only the "Settings" tweaks are active, the rest aren't until you add those files.
I don't think the "disablers" will do anything to battery life, though, a by-product of some of the services being disabled may... my thinking for those was more for privacy than anything else... the "settings" and "kernel" tweaks were where I was thinking about battery.. which, right now I'm 35% after 30 hours... only about 4hrs SOT, but 2.5hr streaming poweramp over BT, couple hours on facebook, weatherbug going for 4 hours, and youtube going for 5 hours =) so... purtty happy with that I must say
edit: posted my screeny for that in post 4

I use to use that but it wasn't perfected and caused some app issues. Now I use that app manager app by muntashirAkon it has this ad and tracker blocker which seems to be a better version of it all. It doesn't cause app issues because he test it. Maybe you might be interested in his block list op. Anyway I have both this module and that apps blocking activated.
Becareful with foobar 66s module op the reason I stopped using it was that it was causing some app issues I think because it disables to much firebase components. I don't touch them.
I was wondering if this Mod only works for Stock Android as It looks like the following files aren't activated on my Pixel 6 Pro running LineageOS latest April update:-
tdp-kernel
tdp-analytics
tdp-diagnostics
tdp-adservice
tdp-tracking

Same for me using stock firmware. The folder structure is different. Also I think this caused heavy drain for me I don't want to test it again because i had to do a full wipe flash to get the rom to stop draining high. Also noticed it turns aod of every boot. I wasn't able to find and delete the setting file to fix that.

I have installed this on my rooted Pixel 6 pro and so far going great. Phone feels faster and more responsive. So thanks a lot for this, great work
Just one question, is there any way of seeing if the services are disabled on the phone?
