[KERNEL] [2.6.32.24] [HAVS] [BFS] [BFQ] KiNgxKernel #11/#11 "Con is an Artist"
I DO NOT have an HTC Evo, but would LOVE to have one for development, and am saving for one. Bear with me until then I just wanted to say thank you to the few who have donated. I am almost there, any help is appreciated!!! I plan to have my HTC Evo fairly soon
DO NOT FORGET TO READ THE ENTIRE POST ON MY SITE, THERE IS IMPORTANT INFO
So, just as the name implies, this is an Evo kernel with SVS (Static Voltage Scaling) & HAVS (Hybrid Adaptive Voltage Scaling.) A huge thanks to estes for the havs code and raven for being the first to implement it into the nexus kernel. What this does is provide SUPERIOR BATTERY life with stability to boot. Just flash the .zip in your favorite recovery image. Enjoy and post any bugs with a logcat please.
This is compatible with any 2.2 Sense ROM
Code:
Also, a little info on HAVS and AVS:
The purpose of HAVS is to minimize the power used by the CPU by determining
and setting the optimal voltage. At the same time, the maximum voltage by
which HAVS can scale to is fixed to a specified voltage depending on the
CPU frequency in order to prevent scaling to a higher voltage than what is
normally used at a specified voltage. The optimal voltage is actively determined
for each frequency and temperature. HAVS actively adjusts the CPU voltage as the
CPU frequency and temperature changes.
Code:
While we are at it, some info on BFS:

I have full adb. I didnt have it when i upgraded from previous king kernels. Had to do a full wipe. Reinstalled rom and installed kernel before rebooting. adb works perfect. full access.

BFS Changelog
Kernel #11
- HAVS is now OUT. We are not currently using it
- Using SVS for voltage regulation at the moment
- Battery life should be great now
- I forgot about an awful lot of longs and ints that will overflow on 32 bit now with u64 deadlines. Fix them.
- Add some macro tidiness
- Make sched_clock sanity checking robust and standardised, using jiffy
difference as upper limit, and use nominal 1us when difference cannot be
trusted.
- In layman's terms these are all MAJOR fixes to his BFS scheduler
- These fixes will provide a performance and stability boost
- Higher clockspeeds are more stable!
- More I will add
Kernel #10
- Performance boost!
- More stable due to BFS overhaul
- Patched up BFS scheduler to BFS 330
- Patched in *NEW* BFS TEST patch that applies over 330 (from CKolivas himself)
* Major overhaul of queued changes
* Micooptimise multiplications/divisions to be shifts where suitable
* Drop the "skip_clock_update" concept as we update the niffies each time we
update the rq clocks, thus we want to update it more often
* Add a local last_task variable to each runqueue which keeps a copy of the
last non-idle task that ran on this CPU. Use this value to determine that a
task is still cache warm on this CPU even if it has run elsewhere in the
meantime. This improves throughput on relatively idle systems with >2 logical
CPUs
* Change SCHED_BATCH tasks to refill timeslices and reset deadline every time
they're descheduled as they've been flagged as latency insensitive, likely
fully CPU bound tasks. This should decrease the impact running batch tasks
has on other tasks
* Bypass rechecking deadline when we know that prev will run again in schedule
* Change all deadline accounting to use nanosecond values
* Rework try_preempt
* MUCH MUCH more check my patch code if you please

If you don't find it before I get home, I'll pm the directory to you.
And yeah, I haven't a clue what that is. Lol

This is interesting... any more details?

YUP! should have no issues

If one was to push this to their device on top of whatever custom kernel/rom running.. would things start to get messy?
whats the best recommendation ?

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll wait until you put it in. Will look forward to updates on this.

ok guys kernel is live =)
let me know if you have any other questions

I'm done playing for the day but I'm def keeping an eye on this thread. I can't wait to see some real world test results. I have a feeling this thread is going to blow up by the time I get up in the morning.

While I would absolutely love HAVS, I also don't want to lose the modifications in netarchy's kernel with the FPS cap unlocked. Any way you could possibly integrate that into your kernel?
An update.zip would be grand, too.

I have netarchy kernel 4.0.3a with Fresh 3.1.0.1... can i simply flash this over it?

FAQs
Well lets begin, almost all features can be controlled using the TricksterMOD
How to access recovery?
Keep pressing volume down button when you see Thunderzap logo
Now special things about this!-
1. You can also use camera key to boot into recovery! hell yeah! BUT remember, NOT to use it for your first recovery boot. Make first recovery boot only using vol down key! Remember this. If you do so, phone will stuck up on ThunderZap logo and your key combo will get swapped and remapped to Volume up and you would need to use Vol up to boot into recovery until the next kernel flash.
2. You can also reboot to recovery from your Android OS directly! Yes I have done it! But same criteria as above! not to use that way for first boot. After you are done with first recovery boot you can use camera key, terminal way anytime!!
So how to use the terminal way?
Open terminal emulator[NOT adb shell]
Gain su permissions and type
Code:
start-cwm
And within a minute you will be in CWM!
How to determine which TCP congestion to use??

See above chart and decide which to use! But westwood has been set as default!
Some of them from above chart won't be present, so watch only those which are present in feature list.
Q. How to use vibration intensity control?
echo "your-value" > /sys/devices/virtual/timed_output/vibrator/level
Values range is 12-31. None other
Q. How to use ThunderSonic Engine?
It is a sound control driver. There are two interfaces which you can control
1. Headphone boost - I made this feature because louder volume than max volume in earphones rushes more adrenaline in me making music more enjoyable.
Turning this On will give you instant significant volume boost in earphones which is greater than what you get when the volume is max. Just make the volume maximum and turn this ON and you will notice it
How to turn on:
In terminal emulator/ adb shell, get su permissions and then type
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/thundersonic_engine/headphone_boost
and use 0 to turn off
2. Speaker boost - In crowded areas I felt speakers of XL fall short in terms of volume magnitude. So I made this to increase speaker volume speakers beyond its limit and now my phone sounds even louder than those dirt cheap china phones
This is 8-leveled boost interface. That means there are 8 boost levels. The default is 3 on TZ
How to turn on
Code:
echo X > /sys/kernel/thundersonic_engine/speaker_boost
where X can be any value from 4 to 8 depending upon the volume boost you require To reset back to default use value 3
Use above features with caution. Using headphone boost for a long time may damage your ears. And do not use speaker boost for a long time. If for some songs you hear crackling of speakers then reset its boost level to 3 or a relatively lower level of 4 or 5
Q. How to use charger control?
1. AC current control: In times of hurry I felt the charging times to be too long and so I made this. With this you can control the charging current rate through wall charger.
Before doing anything you first need to enable the master switch of the control or else the values you write will be negelected
How to enable master switch
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/charger_control/enabled
After this you can use custom current values like this
Code:
echo X > /sys/kernel/charger_control/custom_ac_current
where X can be any value in mA (Milliamperes) I use 1600 i.e 1600mA which completes my phone's charging from 3% to 100% in around 1 hour 30 mins.
The stock current ranges from 1000-1100mA and takes around 2 hour 30 mins to 3 hours. Avoid using values higher than 2200.
2. USB current control: Everyone knows the charging rate from PC via USB is damn slow. Many new PC's have newer USB ports which can offer current rates higher than 1500mA but still our kernel only pulls 500mA. I made this to control it yourself
As usual you need master switch enabled to write the new values.
How to use
Code:
echo X > /sys/kernel/charger_control/custom_usb_current
where X can be any value in Milliamperes. I use 1500 i.e 1500mA
Q. How to use GPU Voltage Control?
Currently there are no GPU voltage controlling apps. The upcoming ThunderZap control app supports that.
Obtain current voltage values
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_mv_table
Output will be something like this:
945 mV
1050 mV
1150 mV
Change these values:
Code:
echo "930 1000 1100" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_mv_table
This will change the voltages as below
930 mV
1000 mV
1150 mV
Q. I am having abnormal battery drain
Most of the time the kernel isn't responsible for this.
a) Make sure you are on stock frequency of 1Ghz. Sometimes the frequency is getting overridden to 1.5Ghz even if you didn't set that. To avoid such situations use frequency lock option from Trickstermod kernel app.
b) The kernel is not pre-undervolted any more. You can undervolt it on your own. Optimum value is 75mV. Don't undervolt more than that
Q. How to use extra modules provided
Best way is to use init.d script to load them on boot.
e.g If you want to use the NTFS file system module. You have to first place the ntfs.ko module provided in /system/lib/modules. Then you need to create an init.d script in /system/etc/init.d with any name say 99modules with following code
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
insmod /system/lib/modules/ntfs.ko
Next you need to give that file all permissions and reboot the phone and you are done!
P.S: Loading external modules affects battery life of the phone.

reserved

Good work.
All the best.

Good job man.
Best of luck! :highfive:

Post #3 updated with all controlling stuff!
Enjoy!

I've some concerns :-
1) As you can see from screenshot, default boot frequency of cpu0 is 1188 MHz while of cpu1 jumps to 1566MHz on load.
This is one of few reasons I disabled overclock in my kernel. One should enable intelliplug and disable mp decision to fix this.
Code:
su
stop mpdecison
2) Eco-Mode? Isn't it for quad core devices? Turning it off disables two cores. And we've only two.
3) Intelliplug works well.
4) Your voltage table is wrong. 1242MHz runs at lower voltage than 1188MHz. It's also irregular.
for example all 384,432,486 MHz run at same voltages.
5) Your ramdisk.cpio contains another ramdisk.cpio + pack script. Remove these junks.
6) xz -e offers best compression ratio but it's way slower than lzop (which in turn has poorest compression ratio).
So, xz compressed kernel is light weight but takes longer time ( usually 3-4 seconds more to decompress fully) than lzop compressed one.
You can see benchmark comparsion of gzip,xz,lzma etc here
In all xz compressed kernel doesn't boot fast in any way.
That's it for now

1. True (I will be releasing a 1.2Ghz version of kernel tomorrow who are not that much concerned with gaming)
2. This is true as well. But this works with dual core too according to my last 20 days testing and I have noticed gradual improvement in battery backup. I will contact faux123 to reconfirm my observations.
4. Thanks! Didn't observe that. Will fix it with tomorrow's minor update

Quick fix for the issue 1 of cpu1 getting maxed out!
Do this- Change freq to any other step and put it back to original. Now try doing a heavy task and see where cpu1 is getting capped at!
Just try it out

I already have done that and I saw the maxing out of cpu1 myself right after you posted even though I have intelli_plug on
The trick I mentioned fixed that
Sent from my Sony Xperia L (C2104) using Tapatalk 4 beta

May I ask for a simple explanation concerning intelli_plug?
So it is a hotplug alternative, that means it switches unused cpu-cores off. Which results in same speed and half battery - consumption in cost of stability if cpu is in heavy use? And Eco-mode keeps the second core switched off permanently, or nearly?
If I am getting this correctly, then we transform our device into a single-core phone (which would be good itself, we can easier the cpus use with greenify to reduce background processes, right?).
My questions are:
Can that harm the processor (if we dont overclock?) and
if we do not use Eco-mode, will we have the single-core-effect and lagfree games?

No, let me try.
Hotplugging means plugging out second core when not needed and plugging it in back when phone is doing some heavy work.
Consider few situations.
1. You are using a mere app like Instagram. In this case there is no need of second core and only first core can process the app smoothly. Here the second is asked to go offline and only first core runs.
2. Now you open NFSMW which is a heavy game. Now the phone understands that there is situation of heavy load, so it plugs in second core that is asks it go online and start sharing the workload from first core.
So this mechanism was managed by mpdecision named service previously. Intelli_plug is alternative mechanism to it. It is more efficient than mpdecision. That is improved algorithms of detecting whether second CPU is really needed or no. It determines that very intelligently and performs a very quick action providing much smoother User experience.
Now ECO-Mode , it just makes intelli_plug a bit lazy. It avoids plugging in second core for many situations and forces first core to do all work as far as I observed. It does plug in second core when phone is in very need of it. This saves a lot of battery.
And no, these features do not cause any harm to hardware because mpdecision does same thing but inefficiently.
I hope everything is clear here.

Don't turn both of them off, you will face heavy battery drain. Turn off mpdecision and turn on intelli_plug
And switch for intelli_plug is there in trickstermod in special tab.

[Kernel][Tuneable][STOCK/CM] SmoothMod Kernel for SM-T311

SmoothMod Kernel (SMK) for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 3G (SM-T311), also may work on WiFi version (SM-T310), all stock and CM ROMs.
Development discontinued, read reason here.
This kernel is developed to give you more smoothness and stability than you can have on stock kernel and others.
Warning. Kernel may work on your device/ROM and may not. For me it works at all ROMs and for many people (on 4PDA.RU forum) it works too. Some people say (or said before kernel worked, this also can be) it doesn't work. So do a kernel backup please before you flash it first time. I've never had boot or usage problems with SMK, but it could be because i'm its developer (though it can not be the reason for that I'm always successfully boot it..). So it seems that our devices of the same model might be different. Be careful as I can not help you.
Features:
- Kernel version updated up to 3.2.26 and keeps updating
- Safe CPU overclock to 1.9 GHz with CPU-Boost kernel driver developed also by myself
- Custom (and only here) governor Smooth that is made to give both good battery saving and absolute smoothness. Uses GPU load and io_wait to additionally increase frequency at the right time.
- Kernel has a custom Android service smkd that controls all its features and provides many tweakable settings that you can change very simply: through terminal command "smkd" (instructions below) or "by hands" at folder "/smk" (like usual linux kernel settings at "/proc/sys/{kernel|vm|net}"). The program is written in C language, not as a script, for performance (shell-scripts are very slow when comparing with optimized C-programs).
- Tweak Menu that can be found if you type 'smkd' in your terminal.
- SmoothnessControl - one of smkd's functions that tries to guarantee UI smoothness to your tablet even if there are very CPU-hungry (but not I/O) apps/programs running like android.process.media and others. By default disabled. To enable, type this: 'su -c "scd --enable"' in terminal emulator. To disable, type 'scd --disable'.
- CPU Undervolt controlled through smkd.
- DynBS program (also developed by me) used by smkd to improve battery saving by 40% and more.
- Boeffla Sound Engine with custom settings, not working with Boeffla Sound Control app because smkd controls them (it's needed because smkd fixes engine's sound effects bug). Settings are stored folder "/smk" in files beginning with "boeffla.".
- Cron scheduler configured from file /sdcard/cron/root.
- All the custom tweakable settings described upper are reloading instantly after you change them or on delete (cron schedule file is also under the same watch).
- Kernel is compiled with optimized HYPER-TOOLCHAIN with gcc version 6.0 and maximally optimized compiler configuration.
Customizing kernel:
There is now nothing that needs to be explained, as customizing is pretty simple! Just type command 'smkd' (without quotes) and go through the menu (by entering appropriate symbols) as you want, changing parameters as you need.
Ask, if you have questions
If you have questions or suggestions about my kernel, feel free to write about that here and I will try to answer.
F.A.Q.:
Q.: Do I need to wipe Dalvik/ART cache before/after flashing this kernel?
A.: It is even not useful to wipe caches because they are used by Android only, not by kernel. So, it's not needed.
Q.: The kernel does not boot! What do I have to do to boot it?
A.: Write a message in this thread providing info about what ROM do you use, what Android version it is and what kernel build (kk/lp/mm) and version you are trying to boot. I will reply to that message and try to fix that problem.
Author: me, igoryan94
Download from Google Drive
Before flashing this kernel please do a backup yours first!
Warning! If you have a Jellybean/Kitkat rom, then download the smoothmod-kernel-kk-... build. If you use Lollipop (CM12), then your build to download will be ...-lp.... If it is a Marshmallow (CM13), then download mm build.
Other choice will cause your device to not be able to boot!
(Sorry for my (maybe )bad english)

Plans:
-
Developing now:
-
Changelogs (old*):
1.2.1/1.2.2:
- Returned possibility to load a profile from command line (command 'smkd --load [name]' or 'smkd ld [name]')
- Added custom setting for apps CPU time, now it has two groups: idle and high.
Idle group gives an app very small amount of CPU time, use for hungry apps that you don't need.
High group grants an app a 95% of all CPU time. Use to speed up some apps or games.
It is all very similar to Greenify and others, excepting that this is not battery saving solution, only to smooth up your Android, as Greenify disables an app and CGroup lowers app's CPU execution time available to it.
- I/O settings fully rebalanced for smoothness for system processes and apps processes
- Also added control group for I/O that does like one for CPU, but for I/O and developed its correct (for Android) behavior.
- Current configuration name in smkd menu now correctly saves and loads after reboot.
- Default LMK level changed to 125
XDA->SMK:
1.2:
- Got a smoother UI with better CGroup tweaking
- In case of some situations smkd will notify user with drawing a small square of some color at the left upper screen edge (portrait orientation). For overheat the color is red. When SmoothnessControl gets to work, color is light blue/cyan. If device's load is too high, the color will be blue.
"Notification" will blink when screen updates because the framebuffer devices are not support this method of screen drawing. But it works for now and I think that it is very useful to know the reasons of device's lags and freezes.
- Menu now immediately reacts to input, instead of pressing some characters and then Enter. Modified all menus that way so the interface is now much better.
- When exiting menu, parameters are automatically saved to default profile. No need to care about it anymore...
- Added Quick settings also to RAM and I/O
- Main menu: moved all "p)" menu elements to main menu level, it is quicker to access now
- Some more Quick settings options added
- Added Quick settings to my menu templates, so I will add this to most of the new menus in the future
- Main Quick settings colors changed to blue, additional are still white
- Overclock to 1920 MHz lowered to 1800 MHz because 1800 is much more stable (1920 causes reboots on Marshmallow on my tablet)
- Device now reboots when charging speed is too bad. By default this is disabled. Also added setting "Charge cycle time" and Quick settings for that so you can quickly set up to what charge speed you need (reboots are helpful but not very good for users that want to play device when it charges).
- 'Boost' feature disabled so now DynBS will work as always even when device is laggy
Previous:
1.1.22:
- CPU, Boeffla Sound and Network setting menus in smkd now have the Quick settings feature that helps to configure them by one click instead of tweaking them each
1.1.21.1:
- DynBS updated: now it uses frequencies from 350 to 700 MHz too, so more battery can be saved.
1.1.21:
- smkd now has menu interface which opens by default by command 'smkd' without options.
- All setting commands are removed. Use menu instead.
- In Cyanogenmod ROMs SystemUI is restarted every time when screen becomes disabled, so you may never see it lags or freezes again.
- PCS renamed to SC (SmoothnessControl).
- Overclock enables when device is laggy even when it is disabled in settings
- Redone temperature control: now smkd monitors a device temperature instead of CPU. It leads to better smoothness. Also overheat situations disable some functions like I/O readahead, ZRam, KSM.
- Overheat prevention function fully removed
- Governor Smooth now enables both cores on gestures with two or more fingers instead of simple tap.
1.1.20:
- Added charging compensation: now when battery charging is too slow, CPU Topology and voltage will be changed appropriately for quicker charge.
- Touch boost changed from 1400 to 1000 MHz, but it also boosts busfreq to 400 instead of 267 MHz. Results in better reaction on screen touch.
- Governor Smooth's default sampling_rate changed from 27000 to 16000 for quicker reaction
1.1.19:
- Added ARM CPU Topology for better multithread scheduling
- Some CPU Scheduler changes for smoothness or power saving (tweakable)
- Improved smkd UI code
1.1.18.1:
- Fixed performance/smoothness problems.
1.1.18:
- Added new default configuration "throughput"
- GPU acceleration is now forced for all apps and it is changeable from smkd.
- I/O scheduler SIOPlus added.
- DynBS is returned (one user asked for it as it really saves battery, as he said).
1.1.17:
- User profiles are no more exist, replaced with default configurations" instead. They are: smooth, battery, ram and cool. After each launch of smkd (mostly on reboot) configurations are removed and recreated to always be fresh and up to date.
- Added ability to create, rename and delete profiles by normal way, but default profiles cannot be replaced, deleted or renamed through smkd (only "by hands").
- GPU settings: composition and forced GPU-acceleration from Android settings for developers.
- Tripndroid and Zen I/O schedulers are added.
1.1.16.1:
- Configurations loading is now be always successful (but only if appropriate file exists), without that annoying errors "try again later, please..."
- Small tweaks optimization
1.1.16:
- Overclock now disabled by default, as it was on 1.1.14 and before, for battery saving (overclock eats too much battery). Can be enabled with command 'smkd -c -o 1'. Temperature control is now optimized for both CPU overclock and hardware maximal frequency modes.
- smkd interface improved a little.
- KSM functionality added with some fixes for Mali GPU driver bugs in userspace.
- Default temperature limit is now 64 C (before it was 67 C). This is done for more stability when the weather is hot.
- Some changes for smoothness and stability...
1.1.15:
- Overclock is enabled now for any time when screen is enabled (no more boost).
- Developed overheat preventing functions that cool device when temperature is between 90% of threshold and higher. CPU frequency will be set according to temperature for the moment (for every 2% will be a different frequency). Function can be disabled but it is not recommended.
- All cooling functions now control voltage too to be more effective.
- Governor Smooth tweaked for more balance (oc_nr_run_threshold->6)
- Governor Smooth: changed logic: half-overclock (to 1.7 GHz) will occur if number of processes running is a half of oc_nr_run_threshold tunable.
- smkd now controls I/O scheduler and I/O readahead settings, they are tweakable with smkd command. Profiles change this parameters too.
1.1.14:
- smkd tweaker program fully translated to english and comes now in two languages. Now it uses Android's property 'persist.sys.language'.
If your device configured for any language excepting russian, then program will be in english for you. At the other case it will print out text and messages in russian.
- Improved custom configurations in smkd. Now it loads profiles synchronous with service (by using mutex) instead of relaunching it with shell stop/start (it was too slow and even buggy to do that).
- DynBS will not be in kernel anymore, it is not so effective as needed. Instead, I've added a profile tweaks for my governor Smooth, that tweaks easily changeable from smkd (cmd. "smkd -c -s [0-2]").
1.1.13:
- Cron scheduler now works correctly (i'm happy ), doing exactly what was scheduled by the user at the exact times.
- I don't remember what was in this version because forgot this as I worked on 1.1.14 intensively.

Looks like it will not work on AICP ROM, on Cyanogenmod 13 and ResurrectionRemix kernel works fine (I've tested that)... Sorry The reason for that I can not fix this problem is that I do not know (even cannot know) how to make an init.rc (this file starts all Android services on boot) file universal (to support absolutely all ROMs at one time). This is also the reason for three builds of kernel: kk, lp and mm...

Nice kernel. But can you please make a version of your kernel work with the T310 (WiFi)?

I can't as i don't know much about modding in '/init.rc' script and also about what differences it has in kernels for T310, T311 and T315... Sorry.
There are too much incompatibilities with builds that are now (they must work everywhere but they don't)...
Ok. Added one question to poll. There are three variants for ROM and two for working or not (six at all), for me all works fine, so I voted for the first three answers.
Version 1.1.14 developer testing ends now, smkd fully translated to english. I will now build the kernel and then begin uploading it to Google Drive.
(sorry for my incorrect english)

Stuck at bootanimation even after flashing on a clean ROM.

waiting for update..

Hey @igoryan94,
Thanks a lot for making this great kernel!
I've flashed the KK version along with the stock ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789510. It works very nicely. Would you please show an instruction (or a specific terminal command for newbies like me) of how to overclock CPU to 1.9GHz? Currently the max speed is 1.5Ghz according to kernel audit.
Thanks again

Hey I cant change the cpu frequent through kernel adiutor. As soon as i change the freq to 1920 it changes back to 1500.

CPU frequency is automatically changed to 1920 MHz when special conditions are met (they are: "blocked" processes and waiting for I/O).. Version 1.1.5 will have full 1920 MHz CPU frequency.
I will now upload "developer" version of kernel 1.1.15_dev for KitKat users. If you want, test that) It is not fully contains all changes that i've done, but I'm not at home now and cannot compile new build... For now it has smooth overheat prevention and overclock fully enabled.

Please wait for SMK version 1.1.15, it will use 1920 MHz as a default frequency always excepting overheat moments (that will disapear very quickly) and governor's battery saver mode.
You can also use a developer version 1.1.15_dev if you use JellyBean/KitKat as your ROM.
Ok, "dev" version released for testing.
When I will return home, I will release another testing version that has an I/O scheduler change functionality, optional Overheat Prevention and changing min_freq to minimal (50 MHz) when temperature event occurs. Maybe it will have even more features (I have smkd code with me, PC is only needed for compiling kernel and ramdisk).

on NoleKat.T310. v1.1 KK 4.4.2 not boot. on CM13 it's ok, but, for me, the best android versioni for this tablet is kk stock and i install NoleKat.T310. v1.1.

[APP][FEEDBACK][0.2.6]Azure app for supported Processor SD (636,660,675)

Features and Description :
Azure App is a profiler app wich have total 8 of profile, each profile have different kind of tunings and different processor have different kind of tunings too. and thereis no placeabo effect in this app nor collect your data.
so here is the Profile simple explanation :
- Chill = Chilling with social media, youtube and small games without worrying about battery drain.
- Chill Max = Chill with more performance
- Smart Casual = Near Default kernel Settings but with better Mem management and better CPU tunings
- Low IQ = Have Performance between Chill and Lazy Plus, Best for Social media and some multitasking. ( New )
- Fast AF = Means hope to push your phone to the limit = more heat
- Game Mode = enchanted version of Fast AF with slightly improve CPU consistency and restrict app usage
- Lazy Boi = Extreme Low power profile that hope to maxed out battery backup will cause LAG !
- Lazy Plus = up to 1.5x better performance than Lazy boi but hope still have similiar Battery Backup
Supported Processor type
- SD636HMP/EAS/OC
- SD675EAS
- SD660 non OC
Just Remember Each Processor / device have totally different tunings.
And dont use other module otherwise will destroy enything..
