[Q] Quadrant scores?

Hello. I've bought a nexus s a few days ago and I've started swapping roms.
My question is simple, how do people manage to get 4-5k quadrant scores?
Currently I'm using Pure Bionix 1.6 rom, but the maximum score I was able to get was around 3.3K.
Describe everything you do, from roms/kernels to apps closed etc.
Sorry if this is a newbie question

Install 1.6.1, then use SetCPU to OC the kernel.
That's how I achieved my 5300 quad.
You can also try other kernels as well.
YMMV

Use matrix rom amd just over clock abd run quadrant a few times back to back and you will hit 4500+

cyanogenmod 7 + trinity 1.44
4500-5000

Oxygen 2.3.1 @ 1300Mhz ->> 4286, highest score for me with this ROM.
And I didn't do anything special to get this score, I only overclocked CPU.

Thanks for the answers. I've done as you've said krylon. I installed 1.6.1 and oced the cpu to 1540 1540 on demand, however the max score I was able to get was around 3400. Am I missing something?
I'm using adv task killer to kill all the running apps before the test.
My nexus s is an i9023 btw.

set setcpu to 1540 max/1540 low. bench four times in a row, throw out the first 2 results, the forth should be the highest.

That's what I'm doing atm, yet the max I get is 3400.
Me and my luck with cell phones

its possible that your phone doesnt like that high of a overclock. try trinity t144 kernel. also, have you updated to the most recent bionix?

I flashed the T144 kernel and the phone got a bit slower yet really stable. The thing is the scores went down a little bit, around 3250 which I already expected. Could it be the phone itself?
I've youtubed a bit to watch how other 4000+ runs went and on the first image teste (2d if I'm not mistaken) I'm obtaining a constant 27-28 fps rate, and that was the only difference.

No need to worry about that. Quadrant scores can be faked and really don't mean much when it comes down to it. It's all about the real world performance.

are you using quadrant advanced or standard? if youre using quadrant advanced, could you provide a screenshot please. id really like to see the score breakdown. the score is really low. also, in the op of the Trinity thread in the development section is a dalvik-wiper.zip, would you flash it please, then try again.

orgasms can be faked too, that doesnt mean anybody is faking there quadrant scores here. with such a low quadrant score for these kernels, i bet his real world performance is reduced also.

While not necessarily being faked you can't say that a test where you throw out the first three scores and then use the forth because it is always higher is terribly accurate or being honest. Just because you ran quadrant four times and got a score with 500 more points on the last test doesn't automatically mean your real world performance is that much better. Honestly it's just the Android equivlant of buying a really big truck to overcompensate for something else (not to mention the cause of people always asking these types of questions over and over).

So after searching around I found some1 in xda with a similar problem and I ended using this in the terminal:
su(press enter)
mount -o remount,noauto_da_alloc /data /data(press enter)
And believe it or not, after that I managed to get 4500 right away in standard quadrant 1.1.7. After closing apps and getting advanced quadrant 1.1.1, I managed to get 4900, which is more than fine for me. What I'd like to know is what exacly did that command do.
Regarding the dalvik-wiper.zip, I wasn't able to find it. Will it by any means increase the performance further?
Finally I'd like to ask two things:
1) How safe is it to run a Min 100 Max 1440 OC setting?
2) In case of warranty issues, will this fully revert the phone to the original (or updated from original) state? - http://nexusshacks.com/nexus-s-hacks/how-to-unroot-nexus-s-i9020ti9020ai9023/

i didnt even consider that because its included in the bionix/trinity combo. but it does have to be included in a stock rom. whats odd is, how did you lose it

you are in a way right and in a way youre wrong, im not going to argue the fact that all benchmarks are inaccurate. because they are. and ive proved it over and over again. BUT, that said.. its a good way to see where the phones performence is and where it should be(if youre not cheating), especially if youre a developer. for example, when morfic makes some changes in a kernel, we run benchmarks to see how and where that change effected the performance.

I was just making the point that most of the super high quadrant scores are inflated and not very accurate, but I agree with you in that benchmarks are a good way to make general comparisons like the example you described, but it isn't an end all, be all. When it comes down to it real world, user experience in my opinion is what really matters.

real world use is all that matters, period. but quadrants are still fun to run, as long as no body is cheating. speaking of, this is from a galaxy s 2 at 1.6ghz, the nexus s has officially been dethroned from the top of quadrant.. http://androidcommunity.com/samsung...-benchmarks-nearly-7800-in-quadrant-20111110/

Cpu handling

How does CPU of android phone cant handle processes like windows OS. It would be very energy saving and. Instead of adjusting to the load needed, Cpu goes straight to max freq which is set 1Ghz and with voltage on line equal to 1200Mv. Sure it is not worst couse by default DS CPU has 1000Mv on 245MHz(lowest freq) and 1.2V is not that much of jump compared to 1.0V. But if you underVOLT like me:
Mhz - CPU_____Mv -default _______Mv -lowest stable is:
24______________1000______________750
61______________1000______________750
122_____________1000_____________ 775
184_____________1000______________775
192_____________1000______________800
245_____________1000______________800
368_____________1050______________825
768_____________1100______________875
806_____________1100______________900
1024____________1200______________975
1200____________1200______________1050
1400____________1250______________1175
1490____________1250______________1175
You get 800mV at 245Mhz and 975mV at 1024Mhz so its stil 0,175V difference and its not that much but if Android Would handle CPU load by app and by how much it is needed it would make epic difference if you underclock like this.
So its my opinion on how they should fix CPU Battery drain problem on all devices.
Second battery drain problem is screen, which in my opinion should be led technology based so it doesnt drain so much battery.
If Google/Android/manufacturers fix these two problems current batterys should be more than enough for phones to last at least 3 days top medium usage.
So what you think guys? Should there be any changes in these two things and if so what should they be
BTW: Does all phone OS's handle it same way?

First depending on your governor it does scale related to load (even more, it as well does switch processors "off" at multi core architectures when they are not needed).

Oled is more power efficient, but has a darker screen, it's user depending what is preferred.
Before you break your head about such stuff, wait what project roadrunner will bring, there are many people already working on it that have a much deeper insight at the whole thing

All this pick proves is that it just gradually rises to max freq. every time and after some timeout it falls gradually. And i have never ever heared of Android phone handling CPU load anything even remotely similair to Windows OS(PC), and curent handling is just not energy saving, thats why all the governors have been created to adjust the imperfect scaling to make it better to live with.
And i am not breaking my head about it i am just generally disapointed in those two aspects of smartphones these days an di just want to hear what others think about it.

On touch it scales up to 800mhz (at my device, because i set it to act that way), that's one of the things introduced with project butter, but when you check the Times you see yourself it is most of the time at 200mhz, because today i read much at the device, the 20 minutes max frequency are, because i played a bit as well.
As well check yourself, download cpu spy, keep it running a bit and refresh it every now and then, depending on your governor it will be pretty much at 200mhz even while screen is on and a app running, because it needs no load, except you have some rouge app in the background.
Governors haven't been invented to fix something (or yes, but only to fix it for the inventor, because his needs where different), they have been invented to be able to modify the cpu scaling to your needs, raw power or battery or something in between, depending on your preferences.

It is true only for late governors, they are for tweaking and early governors there for moking it better overall, and on touch it always scales on to max aswell even if it doesnt need it. Thats the problem. Didint know project butter can do that.

Making it better is much user depending, the early governors you talk about differ as well, performance keeps the max frequency, powersave the lowest
The scaling to max on touch is only project butter, before only the governor handled the scaling based on load.

Still its is very unbalanced and battery unfriendly system which should be modified. And also Cpu modes i think only serve to ruin it all. Cpu usage transition sshould be smooth not jumping from strickt mode to other. It is also what gets in the way of ever getting battery friendly CPU usage.

Man really, it isn't that bad at all, yes it isn't perfect and there is still place to enhance, but they are already working on it (see project roadrunner) and are you aware of how hard it is to get the "perfect" balance (even without adding personal preferences). Really, get deeper into it, it does not jump from strict mode to another, with the right governor you get smooth scaling (at least as far as possible), it only jumps, at touch with project butter, the other times the governor scales.
If your not happy with it, flash ics or gb and stick with it, no project butter.
Or switch to Windows phone and stick with the closed platform.
Android needs reading, find the fitting setup for you, play with kernel parameters, system parameters and so on and get what you like to have our even better if you are not happy with what currently is available, invent a "better" governor yourself.

Definition of Smoothly is hard to define in this case it is more like as smooth as it can get . What i am talking about if you atleast read anything in this thread is that governors (curent system) is full of flaws and very battery unfriendly, so it has to be changed by Android/Google (android software developers and cpu and phone makers)

Use conservative, it hits every frequency step at scaling up and down, that's what you wanted ha?
And no they aren't, only you say it, because you have not much clue how you can get your setup right done (or it at least seems that way), they aren't perfect, but no current mobile os is perfect.

Yeah its full of flaws and perfection is not possible couse of hardware and human psibilitie. Thats what i am talkin about here is what i think of these things and i i only asked what others thiink about it. But sadly enough nnone have their own opinions anymore or they simply dont care.
You know thats what forums are about to disscuss things about common intrests (this case Smartphones and stuff directly related to them).
And as for your statement that it isnt that badi would disagree, becouse it is not normal to keep releasing phones with unsolved problems like this. If new phone is released it should atleast fix or tweak those problems or make for example beter battery's.
OFF-topic:
It is common knowledge that for example batterys with better potential and better capacity are already invented long time ago, it is simply that phone makers dont want to spend extra money for battery . Would you sell Your creation phone for 1500$ production cost is 500$ at most. And when you add battery which alone costs 200$ instead of simple old 20$ battery, you get 1500-500+20-200=820$ profit and not 1000$. If you sell 100,000 copies with better battery you would loose 180$*100,000=18,000,000$ it is funny how it works they only need our money. Companies that make give or take 1,000,000,000$ a year are ready to "risk" it all at expense of their consumers.

You know yourself it is not what anyone wants + it is slow. It is only climbing stairs. Jumping from one to other (at preprogramed condition, probably timout like uaually), so it hits every freq but is is as i said just jumping around without concern for what is going on. Just getting preprogrammed condition realised.
UPDATE:
Ohh sry for triple post (should have multi queted) not spammin and will not happen again

Because it's a problem for you it doesn't mean it's a problem for anyone, i charge my phone anyway every evening and i can pass the day without problems.
The thing is you state it like everyone should be pissed, because it is as bad, but that's only your opinion, not only that it's your opinion without founding it one enough background.
And stating to have no own opinion, because I'm not sharing yours is just childish.
About your off topic, yes they want to make profit, that's what they live from.
The reason why current devices aren't equipped with better battery cells is simple, they could build it for sure, but they would need to sell it at a price level no one would pay for such a device.

You moaned about smooth scaling, that way you get it.
With the right governor it does not jump around without concern, it scales based on load, yes it's preprogrammed, but still doesn't scale completely up if it's not needed. Or do you want something like an a.i. for scaling? Good idea, take a second device just for scaling the first or get a damn slow device, because of the overhead with worse battery life than current devices.

I neve said it problem for everyone everyday. It is problem for everyone, but as you say me too charge phone once ~24 hours, and i can use it at medium use(so no problem there). And dont call me childish couse i was reffering to all people that read this thread and dont post any opinion on this matter. You did post your opinion we disscused and it is normal (noone is childish or anything) just all (3 people atm ) having their own opinions.

Preprogrammed being mostly timeouts and time based scenarios. It is not time that you need is looking at state of devise and adjusting. A.I. would be nice.but its more from fantazy world .
P.S. And once again i just point out that i dont moan(or anything close to that.) I just simply state opinion give arguments- you and others agree disagree on some points and give arguments and its goes round and round. If you dont like to read, post , discuss, share, think - then you are robot man (like auto answer machine). And i doubt forums were created so Some Auto-aswer machines (spambots) would post. It was for real interaction and communication. So just stop flaming, and if you dont like something about this thread just as you before did post your opinion and leave(not an order just healthy advise, couse rage of some Forum is pathetic)
BTW how do you delete post if its fail(double post i mean) so you can make it as edit last.

@kairi_zeroblade how to install this? just installed over recovery zip? My Own ROM used IC 4.0.3.. when I installed the kernel still same.. need your help.. cheers

Nice Can it be used for non gpe versions?

you need to be S-OFF since this is an anykernel package..if you are S-OFF then eveything will be automated..use Synapse from Playstore to customize settings..

Any feedbacks/rants/violent reactions?? should we keep doing things here?? making me bleed without even the phone with me?? people here seem to be more uncooperative than the people on Xperia..they are craving for an official release already i'm just shy to do so..

I think i'm just happy that anyone cares to develop for this device so i'll take what i can get!
Since flashing 4.4.3 Rom with this kernel, i've noticed some lag on my lockscreen, exiting chrome with home button (home screen re-draws a lot), and pulling up my keyboard, especially in hangouts. I'm trying a different kernel (bilal_liberty) to see if that makes any difference. I think it's about the same...maybe a little bit smoother. I'm going to use that kernel for another day or so, then re-flash yours to make a better comparison.
Thanks for your work for our device.

its because HTC Implemented some DMA mappings..on high density devices(2gb RAM and above) we don't have these issues..this is just a port of what HTC did on M7 so we expect things like this come implemented too..so with the lack of huge RAM, indeed you will suffer issues..as a workaround i built a new one and sent it to Whooper and she gave a positive feedback with the laggs/redraws gone..on next release hopefully everything should be OK..i am just waiting for her to report the battery life for the test if the changes i made affected battery life or is it just stale..
Thanks for the nosy feedback i really appreciate it..any one else with issues so we can start balls rolling for an update?

Thanks for the useful information. I'm looking forward to trying out the new kernel.

Hi,
I've been using this kernel since the day it was released. And I'm very happy about it! The features I like the most are UV (i undervolted 50 mV and disabled krait voltage boosting in synapse) and the way dt2w and s2w/s2s work. UV was really something this device needed. Max cpu temp was about 42℃ and it was idling around 6 degrees above ambient temperature, so it is a lot cooler than when I used different kernels. Battery time is also pretty good. The device has very good deep sleep now in combination with IC and greenify.
Although this kernel is imho the best kernel for the One mini, it still has some issues. The first one is that the launcher redraws pretty often, but I can't say this is because of the kernel. I also experienced this with the kernel that is packed with IC. The second issue is that when I lower the cpu freqs, either with trickster mod or synapse, they don't stick. As soon as I leave the app the frequencies go back to default. And the last thing I found was that after a while I got problems with connection. WiFi and mobile kept going on and off. Clearing cache/dalvik cache fixed it.
Anyway, thank you for this kernel and I hope you will support us for some time!

Yes eventually you have to clear caches since i recompiled a newer wifi module..regarding frequency issues not sticking its due to pnpmgr doing scaling stuff on its own..regarding redraws as explained earlier its due to some memory mapping HTC did to the kernel source..at my best, i did salvage a bit of memory from the GPU..well on next release i will balance the GPU memory to the system memory in proportion to alleviate issues..
Thanks for the feedback..next updates will be abit chunky..L2M is for testing already..and for those fetish with MLG..i will not add it..i won't contribute to backdoor exploits to android thus i am striving my best to eliminate memory leaks which in the latter can cause battery drains or high memory usage..
BTW the kernel packed with IC is mine.. (i made it)

Hi, Kairi
Having issuses with Kernel. Frequ. wont stick in synapse.
If I try to reduce from 1.7 to 1.4 everytime i leave synapse frequencies are on 1.7
Checked permissions of different files and folders all seems to be right so far.
Have you any advice?
Reinstalled app.. cleared cache + dalvik ...I´m on latest Liberty ROM
Thanks for your time and work...to support this device

i'm out of thanks..haha
thanks for the report..next release i will lock the cpu frequncies down to stock.. as explained earlier..we have a closed source binary named "pnpmgr" that does frequency scaling on its own..so no matter how you change frequencies it will always revert to what that binary wants..

Hey Kairi
Ok I understand...so I have a question ...ist it possible to make one with oc enabled
and one without?
Or is this too much work for you?

[ROM][LP5.1][tilapia|grouper]Resurrection_Remix_LP_v5.4.8-20150621 Unofficial

Click the above image to visit the official forum. There are documented details and the Donation link
This is an unoffical experimental build of ResurrectionRemix_LP for the Nexus 7(2012).
Latest 5.1.1_r3 (LMY48B)
Please refer to the tilapia thread for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3031614

Awesome! My favorite rom and thanks for the 5.3.6 update.
Mike T

Is it stable for day to day?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium

Thanks for the new release! Version 5.3.7 has been running great on my grouper, now will test version 5.3.8 and then probably sit tight until CM merges in LP 5.1.
Version 5.3.7 was an excellent release, stable with all the great extra features and the addition of being able to make a custom nav button for the power menu. I don't think any other custom rom has that feature yet but then again, I'm not checking/testing many other roms since you started building RR.
Thanks again for the great work and a great rom.
Mike T

Hi Daniel, thanks for the new 5.1 build. I believe it's the first CM12.1 based rom released for grouper/tilapia...Congrats! Thank you for your work on getting this done so quickly.
I haven't really tested very much, I'm on EST and I'm about to get some sleep. The one thing I initially came across is wifi/settings/advanced force closes.
Also, just for further info, I tried dirty flashing this over RR v 5.3.8 while also flashing Banks latest 5.1 gapps and I got multiple force closes of Google apps, like Gmail and Youtube. A clean flash solved the problem. I also noticed that on initial setup, it takes a fairly long time to process the google connection. It almost looks like it's going to hang. I think this is just something new with CM12.1, as I experienced the same behavior on another device with a CM12.1 based rom. Although in that instance, I had to skip initial setup and let it boot into the OS before setting up wifi and google account.
Thank again for the build, I'll be re-setting it up and testing it out over the next little while.

Mike, keep us informed on how it runs please. I want to try CM12.1 myself, or any ROM based on it for that matter. I've had no luck with any 5.1 based ROM as of yet.
EDIT: Installed it myself as well, but it looks like it may take a very long time to restore the apps. Will report back later.

Please add the download link in the op, rather than to advertise your forum.......

I just wanted to say that after a day of use I find this to be a fantastic ROM. Far too bloated for me but I can debloat it myself. It seems to be stable and fast, but no faster than freakslim. I can't wait until I can figure out how to run this at 1.6ghz then I suspect it will be faster then anything else I have ever tried.
Very good ROM. I highly recommend people try it.
Sent from my Nexus 7

Im having fc with package installer any help would be thankfull

I downloaded the 5.3.9 version (md5 matched), flashed it and lockscreen would always stay black and unlockable. I thought it was a bug, and wiped and flashed again with no gapps. Started facing constant random reboots and I could no longer boot into TWRP, it would just stay at the TWRP splash screen. Fastboot flashed various versions of TWRP but no luck. The only option I had was to flash factory image and wipe off everything.

Scorpn let me know how it runs on 1.6 if good would you think it be as stable as freakslim?

Well, I don't think any of these LP roms are stable. Freaks ROM was never really stable for me, it was just very fast, fastest ROM so far, but its based on 5.0.2. I have not found one yet that I consider stable, not LP based anyway. And is there a kernel that overclocks for use on 5.1 ROMs? I have not tried M-Kernel because he has not updated it to 5.1 yet.
I was "thinking" about trying stock 5.1, but that is almost like me trying to live without breathing. Just the word "Stock" makes me cringe....

Has anyone found a way to overclock these 5.1 based ROMs yet? I really need my 1.5 ghz or 1.6 ghz back. Thanks

Please enlighten me which piece I left out?
I have already included the local_manifest.xml for building this rom. Same as the official Resurrection_Remix ROMs, I use the CyanogenMod kernel.
My Tilapia is a daily driver. Stability and battery life is my main concern. I tried M-kernel. It did't work without modification. I felt the back cover getting hot after a while. I don't think it is good for battery life. Anyway, if you think O/C is essential, just do your own mod. It is the fun part of Android. There are already a few good kernels waiting for you to test.

Some of you guys must be come from a wealthy region and your parents are taking really good care of you. You may get whatever you want by shouting for mummy or daddy. I came from a poor family. My father died when I was at grade school. My mother don't have the resource and education rising us to be some fat and self retarded kid who complaining for an extra mouse click. Most of the time, I have to figure out things myself.
In the real world, we can't get everything we want. We can get something if we are working hard for it. It's time to grow up.
Someone from my Tilapia thread suggested me to add a thread here. I think its a good idea but I don't want to update two separate threads with the same content. So I just included a link.
I cherish a few nice words, a thank or a report (even if it's mean) but I don't think I need this kind of virtual publicity. I would follow RR as genuine as possible, I don't think I can fulfil every need. So I just give my thread one star.

Sorry Daniel, I wasn't talking about your OP (Your OP is fantastic), I was talking about the Bricked kernels OP not mentioning something important, but I now realize its not mentioned for a good reason. lol
Oh, and yes running 1.5ghz or 1.6ghz (my preferred mhz) as was intended by NVIDIA, (1.5 Ghz is NOT an overclock, it is the Tegra3 sweet spot and what the Engineers intended this CPU to run at), but 1.2ghz is a under-clock and can introduce unseen instabilities. Instead, if I limit the device to two cores at 1.5ghz which is all Android uses/needs anyway and using my own settings I get a device that gives me more battery life and a rom that feels twice as fast at everything. The ONLY reason it has a QUAD core cpu, is because Specs sell, even though the engineers knows that Android does not need four cores, the fact is if they introduce an 8 core device, it would greatly sell just because it has 8 cores. The Quad Spec was simply for selling more of them at the time, NOT for a performance boost. There is no reason why we can't have more stability, more battery life and more speed, I just need the settings present so I can dial that in... By the way 1.2ghz on four cores burns more power then 2 cores at 1.5ghz, but 1.5ghz on Android is faster then 1.2ghz, on my N7 anyway. So, I just prefer to utilize the cores more efficiently, that's all. This device needs more mhz, not more cores. My N7 is super stable at both 1.5 and 1.6ghz, and it is only when I try 1.7ghz that it loses any stability. All CPU's get warm when turned on (I worked for Intel for a very long time, I know this), so if I can feel the heat on the back that just tells me the Thermal Interface is working efficiently. Its not a sign that something is wrong with the device.
Anyway, I'm not a Software developer, I'm an Intel Electronics Technician by trade, so I don't want to try and build my own kernel, I get a headache if I stay at the screen too long anyway, haha. Which is why I asked if someone knew of a 5.1 based kernel that already had more settings potential. Its perfectly OK if one isn't available yet, but I can still ask around? I been here at XDA since before the Android days (Windows Mobile first brought me here) and the one thing I learned is that this place is intended for asking questions. I have hundreds of helpful posts spread out over nearly 8 years, so I "should" have the right to ask if a kernel exists that suits my device and usage patterns better. Right? :good: It was just a friendly question anyway.
Your OP is great, and your ROM is awesome Daniel. I just want to "try" and get more out of it like I did with all the previous ROMs I have used. Thanks :good:

Thanks for the info!
My tab runs on max. 1.3G and it would take longer to generate the same among heat as in 1.5G. I assume that's normal.
In this case, I'll download and study the manual for Tegra3. If I can, I might add higher frequencies to the kernel's table. It seems doesn't hurt to have extra choices.
Further info. are welcome.

Synapse settings for performance, speed and Battery

I am opening this thread hoping that more experienced users may share their knowledge with us kernel noobs of the world.
Please posts questions, settings and suggestions so we as a community can benefit from everyone's results and hopefully learn something.
Thank you all.
Shared tip!! @Konsstantine34 was so kind to make a video on how to backup and restore profiles on Synapse. Even has good background music

Ok, so i checked this out a while and actually currently still am....once i get done charging the device I'm gonna give it a battery cycle for everything to set in, but I'm using a slightly tweaked base of the profile you posted with certain settings adjusted for responsiveness of UI, that I'll share once my experiment is complete, along with a clean install of ds battery saver pro set up to toggle all connectivity when the screen is off based on all kinds of configurable settings and scenarios, but basically mine is set up to not totally dialect mobile data during the day when the screen is off, but at night it'll kill everything and just correct and sync for 2 mins every 2 hours- it's pretty slick i think- anyway I'll share my settings and results after a battery cycle or two and maybe a bit of fine tuning for anyone that's interested- in fact maybe I'll just pop it into another thread and keep Tek's rom thread from clutter

I just wish I can find a way to make sky high kernel v 3.9 and synopsis work where I get faster speeds then the stock not five. I have tried everything and the only thing I cam close to was 83598 for speeds. I want to get around 9 if it's posable. With out the phone shutting off

Amazing guidance. What are the deault volts of 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 GHz freqs for you? If these are 1062,5 on yours too; performance governor for a57 may causes reboot. Fyi

Awesome thread gang!! Thanks for starting it up. This will keep @TEKHD rom thread on topic and allow us geeks to lean and master Synaose (hopefully,) lol. I'm OK in it but not so good when it comes to the under/over voltage sliders so that's what I'm here to learn more.about personally. I have a pretty good grasp on most of the other stuff in general so prob about a 69% out of 100 as far as know how but this is great! +1 all and esoecially to @drbveb88 !! Woot!!!

All my frequencies from 2100 up are 1025mV default and i start undervolting from there -50mV @ 2300 and step down from there

@muffinsmuffy (Dont know much about it -shutting down- but). I think, Exynos needs the hotplug support(I saw that on my lg g3 -SnapDragon processor). (6 days deep sleep and just %1 drainage, woahh I want that so badly.)
So, Only cpus stay offline when I set them under 'multicore' section. (6 cores work sweet ). Sim-sung is really not behaving friendly but UITA likes to play with their sources, umm maybe not#

Well on stock A57 cores remain off until needed then kick in under load but that can't be implemented sadly on our kernel or we wont have frequency control over the cpu i noticed that once before on note 3 but had completely forgotten about i just find it a shame that cores stay on for no reason but it shouldn't effect anything

Like they completely shutdown on stock and stay at off state not on minimum frequency would have loved that on a custom kernel

I've never realised that on stock, I bought the device, first day realised deep sleep issue was remaining. In the third day it lost its virginity. Stockish stuffs are really not my type, am happy with whats been developed for us ?

Here here you said mate as long as we even have development im happy because these Samsung aholes dont release nothing

I wouldnt call them like that. They're just not doing perfect but we're still using their devices. They dont release sources right but what would be even no release of device to use lol Think twice, Hallelujah.

Ah then we move to different manufacturers if they don't release me and allot of people are about to completely give up on Samsung if you see the replys to emails i had sent when i asked when are the updates due and there response was they dont have an eta sadly if they don't bring back sd card and removable battery i wont be on the Samsung train anymore ive loved there device's so much but the knox and other rubbish they are putting and removing from devices its like they dont know what they are doing and what customers want not to mention fixability just to replace usb board will have tear the screen apart open the device to replace the battery is a huge risk i feel the note 3 was the last honorable device from Samsung been with them since the s2 and first note but they are losing everything that made them great might move to lg heard they are working on a custom core [emoji108] hmmmm excellent

Quick question on the gpu point ive undervolted mine -50 overclock 852 but on 852 i thought voltage was a bit high so undervolted to 806 mv to so far seems stable but anyway other then antutu to test gpu stability

You're right but, they dont care what people think about them and wish.
Moving to another brand? Exactly what I've done before. Too many years have used Htc, lg, asus, Imate and bunch of devices. I was happy with LG G3 and Meixu mx4 combination.(I was done with Samsung after S3) LG and Htc developers have had all of the rom/kernel capabilities and they have done too many perfect job with snapdragon devices. Appreciate for that. For me, physical looking is a priority. If it looks good, I get more interested in. G4 _ v10 not looks good as edge plus. Its now ok with me, it should be. I will move to another brand when I find a better looking device than edge plus Also removable battery and micro sd support specs are what I am looking for a good device in. Another off topic lol. Sorry for my sick grammar, but my accent is good lol, seems British

I didnt touch the gpu volts much. Its gettin me annoyed when the device is shutting down during the 3d test of antutu. Here is mine. 266- 700 always.

Yup.

Yeah I'm just gonna go ahead and subscribe to this thread. Good on you, OP.
I'm a total Synapse noob and I'm looking for the best possible battery saving profile while maintaining a smooth UI. For now, I'm gonna stay away from the voltage sliders and just set my governor profiles to battery and see what happens. If anyone else has any other suggestions for better battery with a smooth UI, I'm all ears. Not too concerned with benchmark tests.
