[Q] htc sensation gpu increase - HTC Sensation

hy guys its my first time post ok sorry for my english beacuse its not my native language
guys i wanted to ask i installed android revoloution on my sensation it is good the thing i wanted to ask is that is there any way to increase gpu performance in games so it can play gta san andreas without any lagg and other games beacuse i love playing games

Maby you habe to less ram availeble? Try to kill all apps , and retry
Sent from my HTCSensation using XDA Free mobile app

if you have a custom kernel you can do it
do this
put this line in system->etc->init.qcom.post_boot.sh file with any file manager which has root rights and mounting system as writable(such as es explorer)
echo the value > / sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk
for value you can set 26666666 or 30000000 or 32000000
probably as default is set to 266mhz so you can raise it but i suggest do not set 320mhz because it will drain the battery faster especially when playing games
then reboot the device

my sensation can be overclocked to 320MHz, i ran a stability tester and came back fine. However i dont play any games on my phone, so 266mhz would be a better choice. Im not sure if the clock speed is thottled down when not in use? If it does thottle down, set it at 320MHz, and it will ramp accordinly.

128MB and cache performance

for anyone who has upgraded to 128MB device, I've been doing a little research into putting all that extra RAM to good use and imroving the preformace of the Universal.
Had a little more time to sit down and test the pagepool think properly. Don't actually think that changing it made any difference and we're probably better off with having none (And it shouldn't really make much difference when I think about it)
Have tried both "Beast & Leos" and Ivans latest. There are a couple of things which make a big difference. First up is increasing the Glyph cache. The optimum value I found was around 65536.
The second thing that seemed to make the most difference was the File system Filter Cache. I set this at 16384.
I've set the File system cache to 8192. Though not sure of the benefit yet. There may be a link between the performance and the highresources cab but still investigating this.
With these settings at reset I get around 68Mb of RAM free. Not much free if your still on 64MB RAM!
The difference to system performance is marked though. One of the best examples is loading up the windows folder which usually has a noticable lag is "almost" instaneous. The TCPMP benchmark I got with the tweaked settings was 322% playback speed and 2.5Mbit/sec transfer rate. For this test setup this is by far the best performance obtained on any ROM I've tested.
PS Am also using the performance tool to OC to 624Mhz Dynamically.

How about the value 131072 (decimal) or 20000 (hex)?
How would that change your test keeping everything else the same?

Seemed to make things slightly slower at 131072, but am curious to see how other fair!
As for the battery if anything the battery life is slightly better. - I'm not running processor intensive applications all the time to while the Universal is "snoozing" its should be sitting around 300Mhz.
Does anyone know exactly how this app works? I am curious as the other tools I've use i.e. Pocket Hack Master always show the processor speed in TCPMP but this little app doesn't. however adjusting the speed does appear to change the playback percentage!
hi WizP,
you are absolutely right! the processor does slow down to 300Mhz when no app is running.
i'm using Battery Status today plug-in by Chi-Tai DANG (freeware, found here at xda-dev) to display CPU speed & it does shows 300Mhz when CPU is idle.
the performance tool really works, although i don't overclock beyond 520Mhz. i use the performance tool more for battery saving than for it's overclocking facility.

[Q] Lag after some days of use - GB

Hi there,
I am on MIUI GB (2.4.13) and I noticed the same issue on CM7, so I guess this is kernel related as I already tried to uninstall every app on my phone.
After 3 or 4 days of use, I can feel the phone waking up slower and having more lags during sweeping home pages or even typing sms.
I use setCPU with no overclock and tried smartass, ondemand and interactive governors, each time having the same issue.
I think this is related to memory usage because after a fresh boot, my phone is about 450 mb free, if I launch successivly all my apps i reach about 400 mb and the phone is still flying.
But after some days of use the available memory drops to 300 mb and lower, and each time I notice this comes with the lags.
Does anyone experience the same issue, or better, knows a way to fix it ?
I don't post really ofter so I will also thank Nexx and superkid for their work on the early stage of the Desire S developpement.
Anyone on this ?
Just to confirm that I am not alone >.<
Maybe a thread somewhere already talks about this...
A few things you could try:
1) V6 Turbocharger by Zeppelinrox HERE

near the bottom of the thread.
Using script manager to open the *.pdf, set as su save then run it you will have many options including 'quick engine flush' and 'detailing' which will help your particular problem. These actions and others can run from your home screen too via widget as a short background process. Once you've ran the script with script manager, exit script manager, choose SM widget from home-screen and find the particular script you ran before. Then you can flush whenever you experience lag building up.
2) Various Cache cleaning programs such as SDMaid etc...
3) A start-up manager to limit which programs boot on start-up. System Tuner Pro is a good all-round program you can try, that is feature rich.
Good Luck
Many thanks, I'll try V6 stuff, the developper is a good seller.
I'll install it on monday and tell my feedback here after 4 or 5 days.

Problem with rk's 3d

I have gtr get all v6 instaled on my lg p500 but I want some game performance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE023yxTFgk like this I dont know what roms he using and program/kernel .... SunFire U719S is a rom? because I dont find it anywhere but my problem is with rk's 3d when I want to remove libGLES_android.so from /system/lib/egl It does not remove I used file manager and I dont have a idea how to remove that think to instal rk's 3d any sugestion...
P.S. Can someone recommand how to run gta 3 smothest like in that video>? what I need?

GTR v6 already has rk's 3d libraries, so you don't need to try installing it. To get gta3 to run faster you can try overclocking your phone. You can overclock by going to settings-cyanogenmod settings-performance-cpu settings, then changing the maximum clock frequency to something higher. Your phone may not be able to use all of the frequencies, so make sure that "set on boot" is unchecked, and don't try overclocking excessively high. If you want to try sunfire, you can download it here, but gtr should probably be faster http://translate.googleusercontent....p.html&usg=ALkJrhhZDo_0YZUePeKJeAEitrk_m3zsTw
thx for faster reply but sunfire is a aplicatyion? apk? rom/kernel? I need to delete something plz man more detail and GTR V6 has all of most performance tweaks and all?
P.S. forgot to say if gtrshould probably be fast than sunfire why the game on that video works so good and on my gtrv6 so bad like 9-12 fps and in neocore i get 65-75 fps

Sorry about that, sunfire's a rom. gtr has a lot of performance tweaks, but some people don't think that they work very well, I would recommend just trying out a lot of roms and kernels, even ones that aren't specifically for gaming. About the video, it really isn't running all that well but that's a limitation of our phone, it really isn't for gaming. The phone in the video is also overclocked, overclocking your phone would probably help.

Let me ask again: Why do you want to remove it? This makes no sense. Which lib is being used, where and how is determined by /system/lib/egl/egl.cfg config file:
Code:
#
# One line per configuration, of the form:
#
# D I TAG
#
# D: display (0: default)
# I: implementation (0: software, 1: hardware)
# TAG: a unique tag
#
# The library name loaded by EGL is constructed as (in that order):
#
# /system/lib/egl/libGLES_$TAG.so
# /system/lib/egl/lib{EGL|GLESv1_CM|GLESv2}_$TAG.so
#
Normally with any ROM you have
Code:
0 0 android
0 1 adreno200
in egl.cfg - which means that libGLES_android.so will be used for software rendering and the adreno libs for hardware rendering - which is exactly how it should be. If you want to disable the software renderer altogether, you can remove the first line (no need to delete any file), however that serves no useful purpose. If you get better benchmark results after doing that then the only conclusion is that the particular benchmark (I suspect Quadrant) is a piece of garbage. Will it improve real performance in cases where it matters? Nope!
why I would delete that lib? because to instal rk's 3d he sayd to remove the old libs and instal hes new ones but gtr already have them so dont need and Ive overclocked my phone mind 480 and max 800 and no much diference in gta 3 in neocore I get 70+ fps maybe my problem is gta 3 version I heard the version without sounds is much faster...here should be a games section only not themes/games/and apps Its very hard to search for a game in all that topics

Well, I explained in detail how it works, apparently you still do not get it. Plus flashing the ZIP overwrites the files so deleting them beforehand is completely pointless.

[GUIDE] Advanced Interactive Governor Script - Battery Life

Remember to have the screen turned ON while you apply the script!!!
Hi guys!
Today i want to share with you a script i specifically tailored for our 4C, to decrease high battery drain just by tuning parameters of the interactive governor.
As many of you know, on the Nexus 5X forum there is a huge post about different profiles created to achieve the same purpose, and almost all of them works with our device (personally tested)
[GUIDE] Advanced Interactive Governor Tweaks; Buttery smooth and insane battery life!
I raccomed to read it!
One of them in particular was extremely good battery wise but i felt some lagginess here and there (talkin about HawkTail 1.2)
So i decided to make a script myself and share it with you, the idea behind it is to force the CPU to scale better with loads and making the Big cores in use more frequently by tuning some of the kernel parameters.
Plus we will have the GPU idling @ 180MhZ instead of 300MhZ (like in the Nexus 5x) and a switch to noop scheduler.
Performance wise and taking in example the latest stable ROM from Xiaomi.eu (8.0.5) we will have a decrease of about 5k point in Antutu (I'll attach two screenshots, the 71K was the result without tweaking, plus just by switching back to CFQ scheduler you'll get 2K points back but NOOP is more battery friendly)
So here you go, this is my script TAO.
Using it is pretty simple and you have a couple of options: [ROOT IS NEEDED]
Since it's a script, if your rom have INIT.D folder support, you can just move the file under /etc/Init.d and reboot the device. The script will make a log file under /sdcard/TAO.log that you can check if anything went wrong.
The second option, if your rom doesn't have Init.d folder support, just use Kernel Auditor and a text editor.
Open the downloaded file in a text editor, select all and copy the text.
Then open Kernel Auditor, and in the menu look for init.d, enable the "Emulate Init.d" and then click the "+" symbol. It will ask to add a name (let's set it to TAO for coherence), then OK. It will open a new window where we have to paste all the text previously copied, save it by pressing the icon on the top right. Now we can just reboot the device or click the newly created item and select execute.
Third option is to run it manually from terminal.
Plus, i'll add my Thermal-engine-8992.conf that you guys can use to change the thermal throttling values. Download it and replace it in /system/etc/ , set it with permission 644 and reboot.
This modded thermal will move up the limits, long story short, your device will continue to perform even if it gets hot.
Enjoy! & report back for feedback
Remember to have the screen turned ON while you apply the script!!!
P.S.
Files are zipped, extract them!!!
UPDATE
Minor update - use_sched_load set to 0 for both cores
Correction made for the log file
UPDATE 0.7
Since @solis_f is having some problem with the big cores, and this could be a common problem to many others too i've decided to add something in the script that will force the big core online so you should not have any more problem executing the script. Let me know
UPDATE 0.8 - Experimental
Updated Target_loads for both Little and Big cores.
Little core min freq. to 384 MhZ.
Input boost @ 787 MhZ instead of 600 MhZ.
hispeed_load disabled for both cores.
Updated values for UpMigrate.
Enabled core_ctl for big cluster:
With this update, you'll have your big cores Offline most of the time, but they will comes online when needed.
Yours perfd (/data/system/perfd/default_values) with this version have to look like this:

UPDATE 0.9
Sorry for the delay, many things to do IRL.
This version is what i'm using now, should be smoother then v0.8, hope you like it.
nice one, will try this
Did you try to run Antutu several times in a row, so we can see is the result of 66k almost constant. Since as we all know, results can degrade towards 44k because of overheating..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did not, but degradation of score is dictated by the thermal config. That's why i modded that too, and pushed the standard limits...
Let me show you with an example:
Code:
[SS-SKIN-XO-THERM-PERF]
algo_type ss
sampling 250
sensor xo_therm_buf
device cluster1
set_point 43000
set_point_clr 37000
time_constant 0
device_max_limit 800000
This is taken from the original file, and it covers the big cluster... when it reach 43° celsius, the thermal throttling will limit the max frequency of the cluster to 800MhZ
Code:
[SS-SKIN-XO-THERM-PERF]
algo_type monitor
sampling 5000
sensor quiet_therm
thresholds 46000 48000 50000
thresholds_clr 44000 46000 48000
actions cluster1 cluster1 cluster1
action_info 1632000 1248000 960000
This is the same part but modified by me, i've added more step... as you can see thermal throttling for big cluster will work once the big cluster reach 46° and it will cut the max frequency to 1632MhZ, then at 48° 1248MhZ and at 50° at 960MhZ
The hot-plug, that put the cores offline, on the original file for the big cluster is marked at 42° for core 4 and 45° for core 5.
On my config file both cores will be hot-plugged once they reach 52°.
TL;DR if you use my thermal-engine conf file, you will get more consistent score on several runs.
Nice to hear that will try this when I have more time to play with my phone and report back.
Great work and thanks for sharing this

Hi,
I can not apply root because of he problem between pokemon go and root, (I am playing pokemon go with my 8 years old son a father-son activity and he loves it)
I am using a dev miui rom and i did tune my thermal-engine and remove the input boost using the TWRP file manager to apply the files.
This rom does not have init.d folder could i call your script from init.qcom.post_boot.sh? if so, do you know how to?
best regards,
John
You should look for some sort of systemless root, and magisk to masquerade root and be able to play Po Go on a rooted phone. I don't think you can chain load the script within post_boot.sh and by the way to modify it you should have super user permissions. Anyway keep up the father and son activity, is way more important!

thanx, my son does not talk about anything else...
About the chain load the TS rom does that with ts_power.sh file.
Code:
# ts power scripts permissions
chown -h system /system/etc/ts_power.sh
chown -h system /data/ts_power.sh
Code:
# Call ts_power.sh, if found
if [ -f /data/ts_power.sh ]; then
logi "Call /data/ts_power.sh set_profile $profile"
sh /data/ts_power.sh set_profile $profile
elif [ -f /system/etc/ts_power.sh ]; then
logi "Call /system/etc/ts_power.sh set_profile $profile"
sh /system/etc/ts_power.sh set_profile $profile
fi
I will try to see if it works using your script.
About systemless root, i don't want to be in the middle of the cat and mouse thing. Today google update and tomorrow there is another hide root.
I did replace the thermal engine using the twrp file manager. It works.
Nice share bro. Thermal engine + init.d script is good battery backup for mi4c.
Hello,
could you make patched files available and the place where they should be placed ?
I don't want to root my phone but I want to give your optimisation a try. It is possible with TWRP to replace the files in the file manager. More work but it can be done without root. Therefore however I will need the allready patched files....
A little more "complicated" even... might it not be possible using TWRP to flash these files ? I have no idea how that would work exactly but I can imagine it would be possible to create a flashable zip that replaces these files... It currently goes beyound my abbilities though unfortunatly but maybe someone can help with that.
Thanks for your share @GoldGanja , looks interesting.
But i think the thermal-engine.conf would cause more overheating as it is already (for me reduce overheating is the most important), but i like the way to reduce the clockspeed step by step. Maybe i will try it with lower values.
The modified governer looks great. I think this will help with heating too. But on this there aren´t laggings ?
Thank you! i hope this fix my battery drain and the heat, i'll report if i see changes
@nachtwacht
Even if i make a zip file to use with twrp, this will only be useful for the thermal-engine conf file...because the other one is a script i've created and so there is no other file to replace. As stated ROOT is needed, i'm sorry.
@Danny94
thermal-engine.conf per se will not increase or decrease over-heating, of course one could make a conf file to be more restrictive on the temps and brutally decrease the performance but i don't see the need of this because i don't have any over-heat problem within my device with the script i've made. A major cause of over-heating is the input-boost frequency that by default is set to 1248MhZ, while if you run my script it will be 600 MhZ. Farther i have no lags at all...give it a try and report back. More feedback I have about it, the better I can adjust some parameters.
@HYBRIDEMON
Thanks!
@GoldGanja
Yeah i will try tomorrow if i get some free time.
Wich Rom do you use ? I have at almost all roms overheating problems. After 10 min+ of 3d gaming i have ~55°c + (On my old phone Thl 5k i could play the same game hours, don´t get over 45 °c and no lagging or something - and yeah its not the best phone).
With your thermal config the device throttles later. So it will heat higher, until it shut down big core etc. As hotter it becomes as more difficult its to cooldown. Sure if you won´t reach 52°c would be perfect one. But maybe i will replace the values with lower, else it looks very good.
I can't find tao.log at sdcard.
Script is applied or not?
I copied to etc/init.d and set 755 permissions.
Edit:
Finally I applied manually and I have 2 errors with big cluster settings.

I'm using last stable from xiaomi.eu (8.0.5). Anyway, if you get to know how the gears of the thermal engine works, do what is best for your usage. Feel free to change the numbers on my file if needed

I think you are using a CM TS rom, right? well, for that you have to do two things.
First, set the battery mode to QUICK, because on BALANCE there is the hotplug of the BIG cores. Then re-run my script.
If that's not the case, maybe the device was just a bit hot, and the hotplug kicked in by the thermal-engine...let it cool down first or use my thermal-engine conf.
Second, rename my file to userinit.sh and place it under /data/local if you want the settings to be applied at each boot.

Maybe I was not clear or, more likely I do not completely understand which is a fact for sure
Let me clear up the first part, then hopefully in the end I will also better understand
Your script chances several files if I understand correctly ? scaling_min_freq for example is the first one you change in the script ?
Could we not update all the files that you change using TWRP ?
My guess is, (that's just me trying to understand better.....) that I think that using TWRP it is possible to change these files without root, but in reality it is not because the phone is not rooted ? Maybe because only the complete system can be changed and not single files ? (without root)
I do know that in the end, for me it is possible to root my phone, apply the settings, and then unroot it again.... which hopefully have my phone working like it never was rooted... it's just a risk I would like to avoid if in any way possible, therefore I am investigating and trying to get it all clear for me, sorry for that

Better perfomance on b378 nougat p9 with less throttling cpu for rooted device

Hello i just rooted my p9 eva-L09c432b378 and i found a way to make a less agressive throttling cpu due to higher temperature.
First you need heve a rooted device,and a root file explorer.
Open root explorer and get r/w permission to edit a file:
The path of the file to edit is:/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0
Go to this folder and find file name:
trip_point_0_temp
Normally the value of this file is 55000 mean that after 55°C cpu will throttle hard to lower frequency and specially games will start lag!
I put the value at 65000 mean no throttle under 65°C
With that i could chain antutu bench more times without lower score
Warning this modification must be done at each time you restart your phone coz the value will be reseted at 55000!
So if people is able to make a script with auto change this value with an init.d script on boot you can tell me coz i don't know how to do that!
FEEDBACK ARE WELCOME

The attached file placed in your init.d folder with the correct permissions will do the job :good:
Once downloaded, remove .txt from the file name, it doesn't need that extension but i couldn't upload it without it
Peace
Hmm... nice finding. Does it give any major boost in eg VR applications that are most demanding right now? I mean real visible boost in performance, not only benchmarks numbers. Right now I didnt root my P9 because Im happy with it as it is, but if it would give some kick in terms of GPU/CPU speed, I might actually root it again...
I'm not sure you would see any major boost in most applications,and i would also be wary of consistently raising the temp threshhold by nearly 20% for extended periods of time...A burnt out CPU will almost certainly give no real boost in performance...
I had some cpu tweaks on my older xperias that also mess with throttling, and on some VR applications difference was not big but visible, from 5 to 9fps, sound really small, but in VR where you actually need stable 60fps to get proper experience(and less motion sickness, because low fps is actually main reason for that) every fps is important. So if in VR sesion that take from 10 to 30min if it would give me additional 5-10fps I would consider it as a good result.
True that more heat on such small component is not good, but I think 65C is not that "big", I actually once time checked temp of my xperia z3 without a back cover using Infrared thermometer from work and in heavy game running, cpu area had almost 72C -_- with cover it dropped to 63C, so metal back cover of P9 should keep it cool for that 30min of fun with VR

Hello thx for the . Txt u did i'll try it!
Other thing about temp, it's the temp of the cpu so 65 is not really high coz i know lot of cpu could reach sometime 80 to 90 degrees and if you look on the folder, you have another file with second security given to 80°C Cpu
Just a warning, its perfectly fine to set the throttling to start after 65 degrees but I wouldnt advise you go any higher for those people thinking "I want to squeeze more out so lets change it to 75 degrees".
Just remember that there is some downsides to running hotter CPU/Phone, higher battery drain and reduced lifespan of the phone/components are some of them. Just keep this in mind, there is a reason why Huawei set it to 55 degrees however like many of you, I like to get the most out of my phone and things like shortening the lifespan of the components or a slight battery drain does not bother me.
