yesterday i downloaded this game 'FRONTLINE COMMANDO 2' (size ~ 80 MB) on my phone but i am having problems running it. its not even HD with big file size , just 80 MB but its not running smoothly. it lags all the time.
my device - samsung galaxy core GT i8262 *rooted* (4.1.2)
is there any way (app/mod?) i can fix this ?
Try overclocking your phone or install seeder.

First of all play game in low graphic mode (if it have a option like that)
Use Greenify app to hibernate apps that keeps working in background and eating your ram
Install seeder and set it to extreme mode
Overclock your Phone using any cpu manager app
#You can also uninstall some bloatware apps using root uninstaller.
Hit thanks..

i am using greenify and have already removed most of the bloatwares .
i wasn't aware about overclocking so i Googled and found that i need to have custom kernel to overclock the cpu.
i have stock ROM and kernel so i dont know if can do it .
(would appreciate if anyone can paste a link of guide on overclocking in galaxy core devices)
i m going to try seeder for now ... will post the result later.
thanks for the reply mate !

you can overclock your cpu using some apps..
that won't give the perfect results to you (bcoz of not having a custom kernel) but will increase processing power a bit..
It will heat up your phone too
give it a try..

No app will overclock the CPU if the kernel does not support overclocking. Do not talk if you don't know what you are talking about.

Exactly, stock ROMs never ever support overclocking. And there is still no custom rom/kernel for galaxy core that can do so.

i tried an app from play store which is used to overclock cpu.. [this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danez.cpusaver ]
it didn't worked for me that well but it increase the power of my cpu a bit.. thats what i also told him in my above reply.
The change was not shown in app but while using that app i can see the difference in my phone. I tried playing asphalt 8 in my core but it lags so much but when i started using cpu manager app the game stopped lagging. Thats why i told him to try that app & i know all about the things that i am talking about

I think you just set your CPU frequency to a constant 1.2GHz.. or just changed the governor to performace.

Yes I set the frequency to a constant 1.2GHz and that increased my core's performance a *little_bit
So, at first i tried 'RAM Manager Pro' in 'Hard Gaming' mode and it did work but to a little extent.
then i tried 'Seeder 2.0' and it was much better. Though the game still lags a bit but its playable now and it has option to
enable/disable it whenever i want to play the game. I will continue using seeder for now.
Thanks everyone for your help! :highfive:

All Xposed versions later than v86 work flawlessly on Huawei devices with Theme Engine enabled. Thanks to the awesome devs who have made this possible.
All credits goes to @rovo89 and @wanam
That is certainly interesting. I'll have to try it some time. How did you find out that de-odexing the files makes it possible to use Xposed?
See updated OP. No need to disable resource hooks....
That's how Xposed works on most Xperia and Samsung ROMs. Just thought to try it on ours!
it worked for me on my honor 6 android 6.0 B803
and I disabled Huawei theme engine by editing this line
ro.config.hwtheme=0
I found it in

Icons go weird. Looks like if they are from Android Honeycomb
Installing a Custom Launcher however, fixes the issue (as you can use Icon Packs)
Other than that, everything works as expected.

guys after working with the phone using the xposed framework I realized that the phone is so slower and some apps crash i.e. phone manger
and the overall performance of the phone is very bad..
any idea how to fix it?
Sent from my H60-L04 using Tapatalk
Are you able to measure the performance loss somehow? For example by running some benchmarks. Or do you experience overall slowness rather than raw performance decrease?
Is it the same if you turn the theme engine back on and disable resource hooks?
That slow performance is due to deodexing but should be gone after a boot or two.
However, my phone's performance is the same as before. However, there is one app which crashes i.e. Huawei Swype but I use Google Keyboard instead.
Remember I asked you to create a backup! If there is an app crashing restore the odexed version of that app from backup (not the complete backup).
And BTW Phone Manager works for me

This should happen only on 1st boot.
However, tell if the boot time is long as it was after you first booted when deodexed.

Are you trying to delete those folders from TWRP or within a live system? You can't delete system files when you are already booted into the system.

And I exactly dont understand what I have to do on this point:
2. Download the apk, uninstaller arm zip and v80-sdk23-arm zip replacing 23 in sdk23 with your Android API level.
I compiled a custom kernel for Huawei Watch 2 LTE. I thought I would share this with the xda community here.

Awesome! Any plans for the BT model?
I'm sorry for being ignorant but that is benefit of this kernel?
Working on getting core control correct, I updated the gpu to use 300mhz frequency and enabled all 4 cores. When I am done testing and I am happy with the results I will release a new kernel. Oh I also unlocked 400mhz 1.26ghz step. For me I can use quadcore and get the same battery life as dual core.
I will look at lowering voltage to save even more battery this week when/if I get time. I hope you guys speak up and let me know what you want out of this smartwatch.
The Below screenshot is my normal usage with AOD enabled on 4 core kernel. I'm sure without AOD enabled it can last a lot longer.

Battery life has been great so far. I can get 4 days on a single charge.
I mainly use the phone for workout tracking and minimal messaging on Telegram app.
I do not use AOD and only used Bluetooth for pairing/configuring accounts and mainly use Wi-Fi as needed.
Let me know if you need someone to test your updated kernel once you update.
@travis82
How to enable/disable fsync?
Kernel updated to catch up to google source 60+ changes. So it's as up to date as it can get without me upstreaming it.
Main changes I saw were screen updates for brightness and updated wifi drivers and Bluetooth configs.
Im also testing quick charge I added it to the twrp image already you can download it from the appropriate thread.
will his work om bt model?
I would love to see this on the Sawfish.

Oh, probably official P. Also if anyone has factory restore images for Oreo that would be helpful. We cant go back to N anymore because of the newer bootloader.
Also the ones who applied the new system update can you install my twrp and kernel to see if its all good?
I have already tried the update several times without success. At the end the device starts with a red exclamation mark and reboots.
Has anyone been able to perform the update successfully?

Chihayafuru might feel like an awkward name for a kernel, but the meaning is pure and beautiful. Inspired from an Anime series, the name means "do towards good direction powerfully" like a "thousand swift swords". That's exactly what this kernel is.
This kernel has been made with love by cherry-picking commits from most of the work already done by other developers and introducing other slight changes which ensure your device gets the love it deserves. From performance to battery saving options, you're in full control of your device and the plethora of configurations available allow you to tweak it to your needs.
Presenting CF Kernel (ver 0.90) for Huawei Honor 8
Compatibility Notes:
This kernel is tested to work with stock EMUI 8, Treble 8.x and 9.x ROMs. Compatibility with other ROMs is not guaranteed, However, this doesn't mean I won't support them. If you face a bug or issue, please report it here and I'll happily take a look at it.
GPL Notice:
This kernel conforms to GPL license requirements. Thus all the source code is freely available here without any charge: https://github.com/hackslashX/android_kernel_hisi_hi3650
Recommended Apps:
To tweak most of the settings in the kernel, I recommend using EX Kernel Manager: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/paid-software/app-ex-kernel-manager-t3560850, Kernel Adituor: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grarak.kerneladiutor&hl=en and FK Kernel Manager: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.franco.kernel&hl=en
Early Release Notice:
The kernel is still young and not yet mature. However, with time and your support, we can help make this project rock solid stable for Honor 8. Even though my initial testing has proved good, things might break on your end. Don't fret when that happens, take some logs and send it to me so that I can take a look at them and attempt for a fix.
Features:
Compiled with UberTC 4.9 toolchain with Cortex A53 and O2 optimizations
Upstreamed to v4.4.198
Added blu_active and enabled sched CPU governors (sched, blu_schedutil)
Enabled Scene Aware, Performance, and Powersave GPU governors
Enabled HiSilicon GPUFreq Hotplug and Frequency Hopping feature
Disabled useless drivers and features
Say no to Huawei D.U.B.A.I analytics and root scan feature
Disabled Huawei OASES and Livepatching feature
Disabled Swap and zRAM for much smoother operations
Mali GPU tweaks for improved performance
Added zen, FIOPS IO Schedulers
Added westwood and other advanced TCP algorithms
Fingerprint boost driver for quick recognition
Added CPU boost driver to reduce input lag
Reduced allowed wakelocks and better timer frequency
Boeffla Wakelock Blocker to kill unecessary wakelocks that interrupt your device sleep
Dynamic Sched Tune CPU support
Fast USB Charging support
Option to toggle FSync
Option to toggle SELinux to Permissive or Enforcing
Wireguard VPN support
Improvements to the sound module and vibration driver
... and more which I didn't note down or forgot xD
Installation:
Installing the kernel is pretty easy. Reboot your device to fastboot and execute the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash kernel <kernel-name.img>
Downloads:
Please check the Downloads tab for all downloads (till versions v0.45).

No root is not affected after flashing this kernel.
The kernel image only modifies the 'kernel' partition and leaves the 'ramdisk' one as it is.

Thanks for your review.
For gaming you can also set GPU governor to Performance for a more better experience.
I've noted down your request. I'll do my best to deliver.
I never flashed custom kernel before. Is there any chance of permanent brick? If something goes wrong, can't I just flash stock kernel and get it working again?
Also, do I need to wipe data after flashing kernel to see the changes?

There's no chance of permanent brick. Restoring is as easy as flashing the stock kernel via fastboot.
You don't need to perform a data wipe. However, you should allow the kernel to 'settle' i.e. use it for 2-3 charge/discharge cycles to see the effect.
@hackslash .. Installed it yesterday, seems to be working fine.. Jus wanted to check, I m running LoS B5, any specific recommendations on the Governor setting for battery?
I'm using openkirin RR b2. Recent Openkirin on H8 seems to have the problem to barely go into deepsleep or not anymore at all after a while. So I suffer from a quick battery drain. The support channel suggested to try out a custom kernel. I wonder if you know that this kernel will solved the problem?
How about future openkirin or kernel updates? Will I have to go back to stock first or can I just flash new openkirin while still being on this kernel?
Thanks for your hard work! I recently flashed it and it works like a charm!
UPDATE 1: I redownloaded the EMUI 8 package and now it contains everything, including the stock kernel.
UPDATE 2: Short-term experiences: The fingerprint scanner's performance is drastically improved and now it is just as fast and accurate as on EMUI, the camera performance is now closer to EMUI, but there's a little room for improvement, the fast charging is faster than on EMUI, the phone doesn't want to overheat anymore on my custom ROM and overall the phone is now a little bit faster. I'm testing it with the Kirin-GSI AOSP Android 9.0 Pie ROM, not with an OpenKirin ROM, but it is really stable just like on EMUI and OpenKirin ROMs. And I have a suggestion for bugfixes for Honor 8s (eights) running this AOSP Android Pie ROM: Please fix the broken hotspot function in kernel level on Honor 8s (eights) running this custom firmware, implement the EMUI camera app into the kernel and make the camera performance identical to EMUI's. The Kirin-GSI project is now abandoned because the dev bought a new phone which is not a Huawei phone, so he wouldn't fix the problems anymore. It's really annoying that I can't share my unlimited cellular data to friends or to my PS4 when I'm on vacation.
Damn. Now my touchscreen is no longer working. :crying:

Have you managed to back up or download the stock kernel image? You can flash it back.

Have you used fastboot or TWRP? If you used TWRP, you need to flash back the stock recovery and the stock kernel, then you can try again flashing CF via fastboot. Flashing with fastboot makes different results than flashing with TWRP.

Noted. I know what's causing the issue. I disabled several touchscreen drivers since not all of them are needed for Honor 8. Flash stock kernel for your device and please send me the file:

Thanks for taking the time to review the kernel.
Let's get some facts straight. First, camera performance has nothing to do with the kernel and 'camera app' can't be implemented inside the kernel. That's not how things work. Camera processing and everything is handled by Android and so your ROM developer can help you with that. Taking about hotspot, I'm not sure why it doesn't works with Pie. Again, I believe it's a ROM bug and has got nothing to do with kernel. I would wait for Pie releases by OpenKirin team and see if that bug exists there too and 'really' requires a kernel hack to fix it.
First of all, I'm not responsible for any damage to your device.
The idea of this topic is to make an archive of OpenGL and Vulkan drivers for Adreno 5xx. It is prepared to work on Snapdragon 625 (it will work with mido and I've tested it) but if you want to use with another Adreno 5xx GPU, you need to rename some files, follow heindrix instructions.
After upgrading the drivers, some users have found the touch more smooth and a increase of battery. I'm one of them.
The v331 driver is from Pie,
v385 and v415 are from android Q, but also works on Pie.
If you have a version that isn't here please share and I will include it and your nick on the thanks as well.
Also, you can post which rom have a different version that isn't here.
The v331 drivers are directly from heindrix topic and I have extracted the other versions.
You can check your OpenGL version with AIDA64 on Display and you can also check your Vulkan version with Hardware CapsViewer for Vulkan.
Working on Android 9.0 Pie.
OpenGL V385
OpenGL V415
Optional. Flash it if you face a black screen with apps running vulkan as PPSSPP and Dolphin.
Vulkan 1.0.66
Instructions:
Wipe dalvik, system, vendor, data and cache.
Flash lastest firmware
Flash your rom
Mount system and vendor (not needed for v415)
Flash the drivers
and then flash your other addons.
You can dirty flash vulkan drivers.

The current drivers on this topic are for at least Pie.
OpenGL 313 is a updated version for oreo, but all links that I found to it are off.
I will try to find a rom that has them and extract it when I get time.

Do you have the latest firmware installed before flashing the drivers ? Because I did a clean install with AEX AOSP and it worked.

what is the benefit of using vulkan driver? will it reduce battery consumption? or increased gaming performance?

This is the firmware. Follow the steps in this current thread how to install it.(Use stable build)
It will increase gaming performance while try to minimize the amount use for other apps(like social media)

I wouldn't recommend dirty flashing firmware, always clean flash it.
hi, when should i flash the kernel? before the driver or after the driver?
firmware>rom>vulkan driver>kernel
or
firmware>rom>kernel>vulkan driver

After driver, you could install gapps and kernel at any order.
Hello, there is an issue in 415 drivers that was recently resolved in Roms Q.
So, in 331 drivers the vulkan api shows version 1.1.66, 385 drivers show the vulkan api 1.1.85, of course it's updated.
Here is the problem, in 415 drivers that have been ported for some time by another user and also in Q and P roms the vulkan api shows the same version that it shows in drivers 331, 1.1.66.
Currently the Q Roms are coming up to date correctly, Drivers 415 and api vulkan 1.1.85 equal to drivers 385.
Well, I appreciate your efforts in delivering a nice job, but Q roms already have updated drivers, so if you can port the updated Q drivers to Android P, it will be greatly appreciated.
Help me . Have no vulkan support but can i ??
Basically my phone has no vulkan api on to it and of course i cannot play any vulkan game like ark or etc .
Help me ,is there any other way to install vulkan api on my phone ?
My phone is already on android 10 and has newest openGL .
