[NOTES]
Guys, there are many members encounter blackscreen (after system boot) after flashing the driver on the LATEST Pie ROM (it's happening after September security patch).
Looks like it's due to the hardening security.
This method fixed that blackscreen problem : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78355758&postcount=1047
Or the better way is, to tell your dev to include this blobs in the rom directly, that way the rom will boot successfully.
I will try to solve the issue ASAP, best regards.
[DISCLAIMER]
* flash it with your own risk, don't blame me if it's not working for you, make sure to backup before you messed up.
* there are possibilities that maybe this driver won't work on some ROMs.
* there are possibilities that maybe this driver won't work on some CPUs that hasn't been tested.

* to check your GPU driver OpenGL ES version, use AIDA64 (like shown on the picture in attachment). download : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.finalwire.aida64&hl=en_US
* to check your GPU driver Vulkan version, use Vulkan Hardware Capability Viewer (like shown on the picture attachment). download : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.saschawillems.vulkancapsviewer&hl=en_US
* if your current driver have higher version and don't have any bugs, no need to flash this driver.
* check your device compatibility in compatibility list section.
* some tester said the benchmark score go higher and 3D heavy games are smoother using latest GPU driver, you can try to take before and after benchmark pictures and post it here to prove it.
* the driver is interchangeable (can be flashed over the top of another version, it will be replaced).

[INSTRUCTIONS]
1]. find out what is your CPU model number, you can see it in COMPATIBILITY section, on CPU sub-section. for example, my CPU is Snapdragon 821, so the CPU model number is msm8996.
2]. download the zip file. rename file in the zip file with name "vulkan.xxx.so" in system/(vendor)/lib/hw and system/(vendor)/lib64/hw to "vulkan.CpuModelNumber.so". for example, for me, i rename "vulkan.xxx.so" to "vulkan.msm8996.so".
you can use this app to rename the file inside the zip file : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarlab.rar
DO NOT EDIT FILE NAMED "a5xx", ONLY EDIT FILE NAMED "vulkan.xxx.so", I HAVE TO MENTION THIS BECAUSE SOME GENIUS DECIDE TO DO THINGS BY THEIR OWN REGARDLESS FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT HAS GIVEN STEP BY STEP.
3]. boot into TWRP
4]. make sure your SYSTEM and VENDOR partitions are not read only.
5]. just in case, mount SYSTEM and VENDOR partitions before flash the zip file.
6]. flash the modified zip file, wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache.
7]. after flash, boot into system, and check if your GPU Version driver has changed (you can use AIDA64). and you can test benchmark if you want (i suggest 3DMark or Antutu).
8]. this step is optional/additional : to boost GPU performance a little bit again, please add this code in system/vendor/build.prop (or in system/build.prop if you can't find it in system/vendor/build.prop). and please check if there's the same code line in your default build.prop, remove it so it won't conflicting each other. code to add :

* WHY DON'T YOU CREATE MAGISK MODULE?
Well, i just believe the performance will be better to flash the driver directly into its designated directory, rather than mounting it from an image and load it later when booting (which is what is magisk doing). For me, some other things is okay to make it into a magisk module, but not a driver, period.
Source? You might want to remove the 540 links since we only need 530, just to save any 'which one' questions.
With 3DMark I used the Sling Shot Extreme (Open GL ES 3.1 & Vulkan) and Ice Storm (Open GL ES 2.0) benchmarks. Results again remained pretty much the same before/after. SSE was ~2550-2700 for Open GL and ~1900-2000 for Vulkan. Ice Storm was almost always ~38,500.
In Antutu though, I got a considerable boost (76k on GPU instead of my usual max of 69k).
I'd be interested to see what others get, and if there are any alternative benchmark apps worth using.

got it from a friend.
he said he got it from a china forum www.coolapk.com.
the driver is extracted from Pixel 2/Essential PH-1, since msm8998 gpu driver can be used for msm8996 too.
is it possible to merge the driver into your rom? (crdroid, aicp, rr)
okay, done a bit research.
i downloaded Google Pixel driver binaries from here (taimen and walleye for Adreno 540, and marlin and sailfish for Adreno 530) : https://developers.google.com/android/drivers
looks like the same files, and the binaries were updated very regularly, which is good.
maybe i'll create a magisk flashable zip and try to flash it to see if it works fine.
if it works fine, i'll update it regularly here everytime google release new driver binaries.
The lowest is before and the highest is after.
I'm using the magisk non treble version.
thanks, but radiation Island and radiation city are unable to run after I updated 313 driver （I tried both magisk and rec edition;other games and apps work fine）
could you fix this ？
or it's the problem of game maker so I just need to waitting for them upadate games?

Pretty sure it'll work fine. It should work for all SD820/821 devices. Just take a backup in TWRP so you can restore if it breaks something.
Wow, the new driver is amazing! I really don't know what it changed but it was magic! Not only my gpu AnTuTu score is higher but somehow the phone doesn't get as warm as before, the temperature is just stable. Also I have tested one game - madout open city - and I think that the phone throttloted less because I had higher fps and everything was smooth. I'm just impressed with what 313 did, I feel like qualcomm is really trying to improve their drivers even on older models.
Really nice to find this option using magisk....
But bootloop on MIUI 9.5.2 Android N

The GPU score is about what's expected, given the boost from the drivers, but it's the CPU score that stands out. 60k is typical of the 3T, but not the 3.

I upload the V6 and V8 zips here.
Yeah sorry I think I should have mentioned that the cpu was slightly oc-ed to 2.25 ghz, so closer to the op3t's stock clock speed; this is how I let the phone run always when Im not low on power..but everything else was just like oxygen os stock.

Hey everyone, over at The Nexus 5X Forum we tweaked the thermal throttling behavior of the phone. Since The Moto X Pure uses the same SOC, we can also apply this (with a few changes) to this phone.
Update: Please uninstall the old version and reinstall as soon as the new version is online.
Update: Now with a Aroma zip isntaller, see post 2. thanks @tohtorin
I don't own this phone, so I need to rely on some volunteers to test things out.
Of course, you need root and this could potentially damage your phone, so don't crank up the thermals too high. I'm not responsible for any damages, tweak at your own discretion. Even though the phone (probably) has built in overheating protection, be careful.
Naturally, you can also use this to decrease the temps if you think it's too hot, downclock the CPU's, or disable the big cluster alltogether.
One more thing. This will work on the stock kernel. I don't know about other kernels, since they might implement their own thermal tweaks.
First, I'll show you how to actually see the CPU and GPU frequencies. You need the following apps: trepn profiler, stability test and Antutu 3D bench. Trepn profiler can show the frequencies in an overlay, switch to advanced mode and select what you want to see. Don't look at the CPU temperature, it looks crazy hot, but it's irrelevant. The real important temperatures cannot be shown in here.
Stability test is a small app that pushes the CPU so you can quickly see the throttling behavior. Antutu 3D bench is just that, a benchmark for 3D. If you run this a few times and the GPU does not drop it's frequency, than we can confirm that it doesn't throttle.
Let's start with the GPU. It seems that, on this device, the GPU is not throttled at all. It seems strange, since the Nexus 5X's GPU is throttled quite aggressively. If someone could confirm this, that would be nice.
The file that needs to edited is located under /system/etc and is called thermal-engine-clark.conf. You need a root explorer to edit the text and set permissions.
Let's move on to the big cluster (the fast cores): There are two relevant entries for them.
The hotplug temperature determines at what temperature the big cores are shut down.
Code:
[HOTPLUG-CPU5] and [HOTPLUG-CPU4]
thresholds [B][COLOR="Blue"]44[/COLOR][/B]000 and [COLOR="blue"][B]47[/B][/COLOR]000
thresholds_clr [COLOR="blue"][B]42[/B][/COLOR]000 and [B][COLOR="blue"]45[/COLOR][/B]000
The blue numbers represent the temperature at which the core is shut down. Thresholds means when it is shut off, thresholds_clr when it goes back online. Keep at least 2°C between them.
Next is the throttling behavior. Both cores' throttling is determined by this setting:
Code:
[MONITOR-QUIET-1]
thresholds [B][COLOR="blue"]44[/COLOR][/B]000 [COLOR="blue"][B]45[/B][/COLOR]000 [COLOR="blue"][B]46[/B][/COLOR]000
thresholds_clr [B][COLOR="blue"]42[/COLOR][/B]000 [COLOR="blue"][B]43[/B][/COLOR]000 [COLOR="blue"][B]45[/B][/COLOR]000
action_info [B][COLOR="SeaGreen"]1632[/COLOR][/B]000 [COLOR="seagreen"][B]1248[/B][/COLOR]000 [COLOR="seagreen"][B]960[/B][/COLOR]000
Again, the blue numbers show the temperature, and thresholds means when it clocks down, thresholds_clr when it increases the clock. Keep at least 1°C between them. The green numbers show the clock speed. That means @44°C the big cores' frequencies wil be decreased to 1.632 GHz (down from 1.824 GHz) and so forth.
Now to the little cores. Only one of them is shut off at a certain temperature:
Code:
[HOTPLUG-CPU2]
thresholds [B][COLOR="Blue"]48[/COLOR][/B]000
thresholds_clr [B][COLOR="Blue"]45[/COLOR][/B]000
The throttling behavior:
Code:
[MONITOR-QUIET-0]
thresholds [B][COLOR="Blue"]46[/COLOR][/B]000 [B][COLOR="blue"]48[/COLOR][/B]000
thresholds_clr [COLOR="blue"][B]44[/B][/COLOR]000 [B][COLOR="blue"]46[/COLOR][/B]000
action_info [COLOR="SeaGreen"][B]1248[/B][/COLOR]000 [COLOR="seagreen"][B]960[/B][/COLOR]000
Profiles and Installation
I created some profiles that you can place and overwrite in your system/etc folder (rename them to thermal-engine-clark.conf). Set permissions to rw- r-- r-- and reboot
Update: thanks @tohtorin for a flashable zip!
Update: Please uninstall the old version and reinstall as soon as the new version is online. Sorry for the inconvenience.
The new installer 1.2 and uninstaller 0.2 are online. I also attached the old 0.1 uninstaller in case someone still needs it. The magisk uninstaller didn't change.
Code:
INSTALLATION:
1. Download installer zip
2. Only IF using magisk, download magisk module for moto x as well
3. Reboot to custom recovery
4. Only IF using magisk (requires magisk v6 or higher) flash thermal tweaking magisk module
5. Flash installer zip
6. Select proper installation method:
- Systemless for SuperSU systemless install (requires SuperSU v2.76 or higher)
- Magisk for magisk install (requires magisk v6 or higher)
- System for classic system install (writes directly to system partition and might trigger dm-verity, breaks OTAs)
7. Select profile to be installed (uses stock by default)
8. Enjoy your snappier Moto X
UNINSTALLATION (Only with systemless or magisk):
1. Download uninstaller zip IF using magisk then download uninstaller for magisk
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Flash uninstaller zip
4. Reboot back to stock thermal settings
If using system mode just flash stock settings with installer to get back to stock
Light profile:
Increase all blue temperatures by 2. This should be almost risk free.
Medium:
4. This will make your phone noticably warmer.
Heavy:
6. Should be safe, but that's just an estimate.
Insane:
8. That is hot. Would not recommend it.
I'll make an installer for this today. It supports supersu systemless, magisk and normal system install.
Stay tuned.
So what about this file
“/system/bin/thermal engine”?

Do you mean this is the only engine you see in system/etc after installing? When using the systemless installation, it can occur that certain file managers no longer "see" the thermal-engine-8992. This is because the system gets the information from a differernt file. Nothing to worry about.

that's the stock engine file name actually before installing..
@Razorless I think we need to change those profile file names since I think moto x reads that clark file instead of 8992 so flashing our installer does not affect thermal engine?

That's my point.. Clark has a different file name engine so flashing the "8992" won't make a difference.. It wouldnt overwrite the stock file you would just have 2 file engines installed

Thermal engine uses different config file so yes you are right it does not even try to load different one. I can make a changes to installer when razorless confirms this.
N5X and LG G4 has 8992 conf file, dont know about other 808 SoC devices.

To verify that, someone needs to upload all thermal-engine files present on a stock Moto X so we can take a look at this.
I know the LG G4 has two thermal engines, but both the G4 and 5X read the 8992 for throttling/hotplugging. The thermal engine I found somewhere on the Moto forum was only named "Moto default", so I didn't know it's original file name. I just assumed it was the same as on the G4 and 5X.

Thanks, this confirms that the name of the engines need to be changed.
So everyone please uninstall the thermal tweaks and reinstall as soon as the new zip is ready. Or download the new profiles from post two and overwrite.
That sounds interesting but what are the expected benefits?

Cheers :laugh:
hi guys!
We need Gapps for this ROM ?
cause the Gapps i found for 7.1 gets the device too slow
without that it works perfect the rom even the cam/video recorder
radio all..
Indeed gapps has become heavier and heavier..
also, the device lacks ram (1gb Ram) & the emmc is also slow.
You could try:
Full wipes (backup your stuff first)
Flash rom + pico gapps arm 7.1
Clean cache + clean dalvik/art cache
Reboot
There's couple things Im around to take out all the juice I can out of this device
The latest GPU adreno blobs changes introduced , gave it an extra speed , and better UI overall
Cheers
Thankyou
Thanks for this ROM with volume fix, very speedy, the best the tablet
Has performed since new using latest opengapps 7.1 pico without problems

I followed ur way and now my tab work better than ever... ??
In fact I think for a device like ours its already the Top. ?
Thank u for your hard work ?
Ok next release will have some changes to what concerns to zram / memory allocation
The current ( also on stock ) 512 mb of swap is too much for this device, taking out way too much precious (real) ram , up to +100mb of real ram used by the 512 mb virtual swap...
Ram is the one resource that needs more attention on this device..

Good work mate keep it up
Great work! Keep it up!
Feature requests
1. Dts Eagle support (audio enhancement)
2. Little gpu over clock (idc about cpu)
3. Charging speed around (1500Ma)which is safe as max pro m1 comes with 1800ma out of the box. (realme has only given 900-1100Ma)
4. DT2W
??
Great work mate.
great work mate. i only request you return the gpu clock to 2.2 as it should be and maybe some oc for cpu as well. thank you. will try asap.
I guess R2pro battery can't sustain overclock of either GPU or CPU from stock values, may be that is why they lowered them

i think it just to preserve more battery thats why they set it to 1.9-2ghz only instead of 2.2ghz. it's nice if we can have option to 2.2ghz though
This kernel is very useful. now red color warning message (ie., rooted mobile) is not coming!!! and we can delete unwanted system apps via es file manager. but we can delete in local drive only. Any way im happy. i hope this kernel maybe work in upcoming stable stock pie rom. Thank you guy.
Thanks for the kernel...The red notification is no longer coming after rooting ..
But LMAO what did u do to the CPU with this kernel??
My antutu score got reduced from 130000 to 85000
Really happy for seeing custom kernel:good:
Hotspots bug is there
Kernel is good. But one major bug is there. That bug is wif hotspot. After flashing kernel and magisk. Mobile is perfectly rooted. red colour warning msg is also stopped and RW is working. very interesting, But first time hotspot is working but after restarting mobile and laptop, the hotspot will not work properly. Laptop shows connected but no internet!!! i cheched stock rom coloros 5.2 ver 14, 15 and 17.

It is not a bug of kernel but lite Os, I'm using Hotspot seemlessly. I lite Os or color Os disable pill killer and restart, your Hotspot should work
Is this kernel works on ColorOS 6 beta.
Update - its not working on ColorOS 6.
redfeast kernel 1.1 is not uploaded!!!???. kindly give the new redfeast kernel for color os 6. Rooting notification is coming. so need your help to fix it.

No you can't. Due to ColorOS 6 security, Magisk 19.3 doesn't work fully. Thus, current working version is only 17.1 which has magiskhide as well as module loading.
This kernel is for RMX1801. Don't flash it on RMX1807 or you'll be soft bricked your device.
@redfeast
Thanks! There's one bug in the kernel source - this folder being empty:
/android_kernel_oppo_RMX1801-master/drivers/staging/qcacld-3.0
I removed all references to it and it compiles fine - cheers!
Any chance of porting the drivers over from that kernel (4.4.78) over to the latest one (4.4.193)? The reason being: I cannot enable KVM Virtualization due to a bug in /arch/arm64/kernel/cpu_errata.c that referenced a function named "bp_hardening".
This bug has been fixed in 4.4.193 - but many files have been changed across /arch/arm64/
This is a small magisk Module which will update gpu drivers for any android device having adreno 630 GPU specially snapdragon 845 devices comes with adreno630 gpu. Below is the list of SD845 devices with adreno 630 gpu where this module should work.
What are benifits of udating GPU drivers?
What benefits would updating your GPU more frequently have? Likely, you'd see more patches to rectify issues like game crashes, optimization for performance on new titles, and potentially support for new features.
https://mobile.phonebunch.com/phone-filter/gpu/adreno-630/page/1/
Requirements :
1)device with adreno 630 gpu
1) Rooted and magisk installed
Procedure :
1)First download AIDA64 apk. Install and open go to display there if you see GPU drivers version less than 4.15(415) then you can use this module.
But anything greater than that then you need not to update drivers.
2)serch for adreno 630 drivers under download section in magisk app. Download module, install and reboot.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.finalwire.aida64
To manually install module download from below link(as per your android version android 9 and android 10 have different modules)
https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/adreno-630-gpu-driver/releases
3) after installation reboot device and go to AIDA64 app see whether your GPU version changed to 4. 15(415)
Thats it guys enjoy new drivers
Here is small video tutorial if you wnat preview

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE BRICKS! YOU ARE FLASHING THIS KERNEL AND ITS YOUR CHOICE TO DO IT OR NOT TO DO IT AND YOU'RE THE ONE DOING IT. I JUST WANT TO HELP OTHERS OUT.
REQUIREMENTS: UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER AND ROOT.
IMPORTANT: THIS KERNEL IS MEANT TO WORK ONLY ON STOCK ROM, IT WONT WORK ON CUSTOM ROMS, CUSTOM ROMS ALREADY PROVIDE WITH THE ROM CUSTOM KERNEL AS ALMOST ALL CUSTOM ROMS ALREADY USE MY KERNEL, THIS IS A MODIFIED VERSION OF THE CUSTOM ROM KERNEL AVAILABLE IN DOTOS BUT FOR STOCK ROM. IT CAN WORK ON ANY LG G7 THINQ MODEL.
How to flash:
1. Download Smartpack Kernel Manager (free) from playstore or any other kernel manager that supports flashing zips such as Franco kernel manager, Ex kernel manager etc;
2. Go to Flash section in the kernel manager, in smartpack press on the 3 lines in the top left corner, scroll down and tap on SmartPack;
3. Press on the button that looks like a lightning, select the zip and wait for it to flash;
4. Reboot;
5. Enjoy.
Features:
- Compiled with Proton Clang 13.0;
- Upstreamed ZRAM compression and decompression algorithms, now ZRAM should be almost as fast as RAM;

- Simple lmk from sultan;
- 4.9.235.
- LA.UM.8.3.r1-08100-sdm845.0 CAF Tag, Why 8100 only and not newer ? Because it performs the best, i've tested even Android 11 tags, it performs worse, this tag is more efficient for battery life while maintaining same performance if not better;
- RCU backported from 4.14 kernel;
- Binder backported from 5.4 kernel;
- Cpu idle, lmp levels and pm qos improvements, should reduce idle drain.

- A lot of KGSL improvements thanks to Sultan. (KGSL - GPU driver in the kernel);
- Cache improvements;
- Scheduler Improvements;
- CONFIG_HZ = 250;
- 128kb Readahead. Why ? Because thats the default value in linux and pixels as well;

- Added efficient frequencies in schedutil;
- Improvements in schedutil;
- Added support for steam & nintendo swich controllers;
- Many other improvements.

How to unlock bootloader
How to root:
This method works on any lg g7 thinq model apart TM (T-Mobile)
Firstly you have to unlock bootloader.
1. Install magisk manager
2. Boot into 9008 mode
3. Backup your boot_a image using Qfil (Read data)
4. Copy it to your phone
5. Rename it to boot_a.img
6. Go in magisk manager —-> install —-> Select and patch an image —-> select the image.
7. Copy the patched boot image file to your PC (its located in downloads folder in your phone)
8. Flash it with fastboot/qfil ( fastboot flash boot_a < drag and drop over the cmd the image > // select boot_a and load image in qfil)
NOTE: IF IT TELLS YOU THAT YOU ARE NOT ROOTED THEN DO THE SAME PROCESS BUT WITH BOOT_B.

is there a step by step tutorial for this? im a newbie
Thank you so much for sharing this. I've successfully flashed this on my Korean variant G7 [G710N]
I have a problem with my 128GB SD card, my phone can't use it anymore when it is formatted as exFAT. When I insert it in my phone it always say that it is corrupted and that I need to format it, but when I format it in my phone it's formatted as FAT32. I'm sure that I've used a couple of exFAT SD cards before, is it because of this kernel?
Tested the kernel.. so far the lg g7 stays cool on geishin impact, and the battery last a little longer, nice job developer, thank for your job, just two questions ..
1: will the kernel be updated from time to time?(i hope so)
2: what are the best configs for this kernel(for battery and for performance)?

1. Yes it will be updated when i find more improvements to do in the kernel.
2. There are no configs, do not use any other modules related to performance,tweaks whatever those do worse do not try any ( examples like: nfs tweaker, zeetatweaks, fde optimiser) or whatever they were called just do not use this type of modules if you want the best performance and battery life. The kernel is already tuned for the best meaning you do not have to tweak anything.

The kernel should not affect this kind of stuff, you can try flashing 1.0 again, over 1.2, becauuse you can do that as it replaces the entire kernel there's no "updating" process its just replacing the kernel.

Gcam with buffer fix (Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_BF_V2.2.1.190822.1145) is working fine for me.
Sorry guys, was the Secure boot. I enabled this after updated the kernel. Tried rollback 1.1, 1.0 and no sucess... the gcam was broken on 1.0 too. Then i thinked that could be the secure boot (Encendido Seguro in spanish). After reboot the gcam started going fine.
Sorry about my bull**** over 1.2.
Running the N0kernel for the first day and no problems so far, everything seems to be very stable. Cant really compare to stock, I only have the phone for a few days.
