[ROM][08-06-2012] ~×~ EliteMod & Kernel CM7 ~×~ [sd-ext/swap] (ics has own thread)
EliteMod 120316 + EliteKernel 120319
Turbo just got a new meaning.
This mod is a custom ROM based on CyanogenMod7 nightly and modified CM7 Kernel.
The primary aim is to dramatically increase device speed without requiring frequencies above 1GHz in daily use.
The secondary aim is to improve battery consumption where possible by fine-tuning system settings.
The bonus is getting rid of some annoying post-flash steps and settings.
To achieve this required highly experimental steps outside of the scope of Android's security system and direct intervention in userspace.
Be aware that I made this mod primarily for myself, I went to extremes to squeeze the last bit of performance out of my device. Expect no flashy stuff, just raw power and great base for your customization. I guarantee no support whatsoever and any modifications you make to your device are solely your responsibility. It's a good idea to nandroid backup first!
Warnings - must read:
1) Do a nandroid backup, this ROM is not for everyone.
2) Full /data /cache wipe is mandatory before moving to EliteMod, even from CM7! Not kidding!
3) This ROM relies heavily on the bundled EliteKernel. Flashing any other kernel unless I explicitly put a link in download area is probably a bad idea.
4) Flashing gApps or any performance-boosting packages is not recommended. Latest gApps are already included and tweak scripts may in some extreme cases break sd-ext support.
The ROM requires a manual reboot after account setup, you will see REBOOT REQUIRED on screen. Tap it and reboot the device as usual to apply additional tweaks. Any settings done before this reboot may be lost.
6) If you want to do a "Factory Reset" of this ROM, wiping /data /cache /sd-ext wipe is not enough. You must re-flash the zip to really start clean.
The usual: Do not use TitaniumBackup to restore System components unless you know what you're doing. Restoring LauncherPro user data will forfeit fine-tuned launcher settings. Wipe deletes battery stats and recalibration is necessary to see real battery usage. You can backup your battery stats first before wiping - just use my tool - EliteMod will automatically restore the backup and save you the need to recalibrate. If you really want LWP or ADW, mv them yourself from /data/local/ as well as live walpapers and other useless garbage.

Frequently Answered Questions:
- if the phone is not smooth, make sure you only have ONE app that controls CPU active at a time. Daemon OR SetCPU OR System Tuner etc. You can disable other apps by not giving them superuser access.
- changing your locale to english-us fixes the new market issue if you have problems but don't want to flash the old market.
- to save even more battery, undervolt your CPU by following the guide below and my easy to use UV TOOLS package. Alternatively use this program to modify your voltages https://market.android.com/details?id=com.incredicontrol .
- please include your ROM and kernel name if you ask an undervolting question in this thread and you are not running EliteMod

These settings implement my own "Final Fortress"(tm) philosphy of battery management. The speed will decrease progressively with battery discharge - basically this will make your battery last longer the longer you are not charging. The goal is to save that precious last drop of power you might need in a tight situation at the end of a long day. All that without sacrificing speed when you have plenty of charge left. You should not notice significant speed decrease until you hit the reserve @ 15%.
UV hint: If you've built your own stable undervolting table, you can maximize speed with no impact on battery by aligning the max frequencies to your specific voltage peaks. (example: if there are 3 different frequencies stable on the same voltage, always use only the fastest of the group)

NIKER's UnderVolting Tools Manual
Friendly warning: If you use this guide with any ROM or Kernel other than EliteMod and need to ask a question here - mention your ROM and Kernel in your post or I can't help you.
Be aware: This guide and the default voltage file assume you are using EliteKernel, other kernels will require different starting point voltage table.
Introduction:
By undervolting I mean decreasing voltages at which your CPU operates on specific frequencies.
If done properly, this can lead to dramatic increase of battery life with no performance loss, it also decreases CPU temperatures.
If done wrong, this can lead to freezes, graphic stuttering under heavy load or unability to boot without reflashing. Do a nandroid backup NOW!
I take no responsibility for your modifications, burned CPUs due to too high voltage and/or frequency, data loss, nuclear explosions, your girlfriend breaking up with you etc. You know the drill.
You should know this takes time - a lot of time. I spent 3 long evenings optimizing my table but I didn't have these tools to help.
You should also know this has to be done just once and you can reap the benefits of insane battery life with any ROM or kernel that supports undervolting - forever.
Essentials:
I am assuming you have a Windows PC at hand. SetCPU installed (disable profiles and on boot for safety), YouTube installed and Angry Birds or similar graphically intensive game of your liking for stability testing.
Next download the UV_TOOLS package I provided above, extract it somewhere and let me explain what each file does:
tools folder just contains ADB essentials and a simple free unix-capable text editor
voltages.txt - this is THE file you are going to edit and consequently THE file you never want to lose after you are done.
voltages.default.txt - this is a copy of the starting point for your convenience
start_edit.bat - this will open the voltages.txt file in an improved text editor capable of unix line endings, we are going to use this editor to make modifications to the voltage table within voltages.txt. Windows notepad is not sufficient for this task!
undervolt_temp.bat, undervolt_temp_periodic.bat - these two files are your best friends, they will push the voltages.txt to your device and apply it temporarily. It's effects will be lost after reboot. Periodic variation will push the file every 10 seconds, allowing you to always have the latest saved version of your voltage table on your device. Some may prefer the normal variant that will only re-push on a keystroke.
undervolt_persistent.bat - be careful with this baby, it does the same job as undervolt_temp.bat, but permanently so, simple reboot will no longer save your ass after you use this. You don't need to wait until you have all 4548648 frequencies optimized but do not use this unless you are pretty sure you have a stable voltage table.
remove_screwup.bat - did you just use undervolt_persistent.bat and your vision threw it back in your face and wouldn't boot? This will save you - 100% guaranteed.
Step by step guide:
First send your girlfriend to sleep, get a huge cup of tea, kick back, run a movie and connect your device, this is gonna be a long night and a lot of reboots.
Do a nandroid backup. Copy it to your PC, **** happens and we don't want that.
Run start_edit.bat - voltages.txt will open, this is not the stock voltage table, it is my own table with +25 overvolt added to every entry. Let's take a look:
Code:
echo '245760 900' > ./vdd_levels
...this says that for frequency of 245MHz the voltage will be 900mV. Valid voltages for vision are ranging from 750 to 1525.
Our objective is to find the LOWEST stable voltage for each frequency (yes - I know there's a lot of them). If you set it too low, your device will freeze and you will need to pull the battery and reboot (suggest removing your battery cover now). Too high frequency should not freeze your device but they will increase operational temperatures slightly and of course battery drain.
As I said the provided voltages.txt is specific for my device with slight overvolt, so let's see if your device can handle it or not - run undervolt_temp.bat to push and activate the default table. SetCPU to 122-1036 ondemand. Now if by now the device haven't froze, it's a good sign.
Next step we will test stability - connect to wifi and disconnect charger. Run youtube app, run a demanding test video with high quality - in high quality mode. The video should not stutter weirdly and the device should not freeze. Actually everyting should be pretty much normal. After 30s try to run your game instead for a half minute. After that hit the power button, let the device sleep for 30s and then try to wake it from standby. Should any of these steps fail, edit the voltages.txt, increase all the voltages by 25, push the changes and try the stabily test again.
Everything went smoothly? Well congratulation, you have taken the first step towards awesomeness. These settings should already improve your battery life compared to stock.
But we want moar battery! There's never enough when it comes to battery life. Well here it comes.
Take frequency 122880, it is the lowest ever used by your device out of standby. We currently have it set to 825, so let's try 800. Save the file and push the voltages to the device if you're not using periodic updater. Now SetCPU to 122-192 ondemand- it will be slow and tedious, frequencies below 768 can't run videos well so just play with your device a bit and watch for a total freeze. Short freezes that fix themselves are to be expected at those speeds. The good thing is, if your device starts suffering from sleep of death - the culprit is most likely one of these two frequencies - remember that.
Everything went well? Set all frequencies below 122880 to 800 as well. If not, leave them all at 825. Going any lower than 775 is asking for a sleep of death - just don't
Don't forget to always save voltages (floppy button) and then push them using the bat or use the periodic update - otherwise your changes have no effect, obviously.
Now move to the next frequency 192000 and set it -25 to 850. Leave SetCPU at 122-192 ondemand- we always want two adjacent frequencies switching while testing - it is during this frequency change when the device is most likely to freeze. It also triangulates the problem to these two frequencies, making it easy to fix a problem. Test stability by whatever means - no videos yet. If everything works you can try for 825.
Do this for every frequency up to 768.
Undervolt 122-192 then 245-368 then 768-806.
By now you have the sleep frequencies covered and your device should last incredibly long on standby.
Now optimize each and every frequency up to the maximum you want to use on daily basis. For 768MHz and more use additional video stress test.
Hints:
Never lower voltage more than 25 at a time between tests.
Always test with ondemand between previous and current frequency to ensure stability.
Consequently never lower more than two adjacent frequencies in one step - and even that is unsafe (but twice as fast, obviously), missing one unstable frequency means long and tedious testing process to find the culprit - you have been warned so don't try to cheat
Best tests for stability are streaming movies, they stress every component to the limits much more than any synthetic test. Even when SetCPU stability tests succeed, video streams tend to have much lower tolerance for low voltages - the video will stutter before it's even low enough to freeze whole device, do not underestimate this. Also do not mistake buffer stuttering for a CPU problem, the device would eventually freeze if it's CPU, stay close to your wifi AP.
Secondary test could be a game that doesn't stress the device as much - that will test frequency switching. Angry birds worked well for me and its fun
SetCPU profiles:
when you've finally built your own stable undervolting table up to your maximum desired frequency, you can maximize the impact of your hard work on battery by aligning the max frequencies to your specific voltage peaks. (example: if there are 3 different frequencies stable on the same voltage, always use only the fastest of the group)
Does your table look like this?
Code:
echo '368640 875' > ./vdd_levels
echo '768000 875' > ./vdd_levels
In this case always use 768 instead of 368 in setCPU where possible!
Higher frequency will do same work much faster
and in turn the CPU can sleep longer - saving battery.

kewl thanks bud

Isn't umaro an older kernel? Why not use a newer kernel. Just curious
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App

A month old kernel is not enough to justify one that is not tried and tested unless it offers something extraordinary. Besides it offers all features one could ever dream of. Smartass, greaselightning, undervolting, very granular OC steps and mainly great stability. If you have a better candidate I will gladly take a look

I've used tiamat kernel it's pretty good and should have vipermod now so you can control voltage

If we can't flash the Gapps over the ROM, then how are we supposed to use it properly? Are they included in the ROM itself?

**** the haters. Bleeding edge is not always the best edge to have.
I'll check into this in the next day or two.

This is really fast, so far no problems except market. I had to replace the new market with old one because it was force closing within 15 seconds whenever I opened it. Anyone else having similar issue with new market? I seem to have it on ILWT cm7 too.
Other than that, I think I'll keep this rom for awhile. Will see about battery life..

same market issue here, anyway the new market has never worked for me on cm7.
the rest is quite flawless, ill see how my battery does later and report back.

That is an old issue and it had an easy fix. If I remember correctly all you had to do was change the language of the system to "English US" in Settings->Language&Keyboard. It happened to some people on CM based roms, not sure about other roms.

go it working right away. thanks for the tip!

Does any body have a quadrant score for this rom yet? just curious.

Quadrant is not the best way to determine anything else than gaming performance but just fyi I reached 3000 points at 1440MHz @ performance, didn't bother to try more.
EDIT: Curiosity got the better of me - 3591 points at 1.9GHz.
The market issue is weird, I am not EN-us myself and it never acted up. I can provide old Vending.apk in flashable form if you want.
As for the screenshots argument - its your regular CM7, nothing special visually except LP.

AWESOME!
This is by far the SMOOTHEST, FASTEST, SEXIEST rom i have ever flashed and i have been lurking for a really long time. Thank you so much for this ROM.

Will try your rom.
would quake3 (kwaak3) timedemo benchmark be a decent way to test gains? I know it's mostly video but still, how to tell between roms?
Sometimes I want to be able to see an actual speed difference from the roms than just placebo effect but it seems hard to find the right benchmark..

Thanks
eagerly waiting for the next CM7 nightly to play some more with it but looks like the automatic compiler has some problems.
kaijura:
Graphic benchmarks will not tell you much about day to day performance.
You need to take storage and sdcard r/w speeds, governor's ability to scale the CPU properly and garbage collecting efficiency into account to tell the difference - they have all been tweaked for better experience in this ROM. Synthetic benchmarks just can't test all of that.

DOWNLOAD
Sense 5.5 Android 4.4 and Google Play Edition Android 4.4.2
ElementalX-m7-Verizon-13.1
Note: I do not have a Verizon HTC one. Please look through the thread to find what ROMs this works with and any workarounds that are needed.
INSTALLATION
1. Install zip from recovery
2. Follow the instructions, if you don't know what to do, use the preselected options
3. Reboot
For installation, it seems a lot of people have finicky phones when it comes to flashing stuff with aroma.
If the installer gets stuck at 0% then you need to reboot to bootloader and do fastboot erase cache
If the installer reboots at 10%, you need to do a nandroid backup of /system partition and restore it. I think a dirty flash would also work.
After you install it, if you get a black screen or stuck at the HTC logo, no need to worry. Just hold down the power button untill the capacitive buttons start flashing and the phone restarts. The kernel installed correctly.
As always, with overclocking, not all phones can handle all frequencies. If it doesn't boot, or randomly reboots, or freezes, your first course of action should be to reinstall with a lower frequency.
Previous versions:

NOTES:
ElementalX Configuration File
Your choices in the Aroma installer are used to build a configuration file. The config file is located at /etc/elementalx.conf. You can edit this file to change kernel settings. Whatever is set in this file will take effect when the device is booted (unless other scripts or apps interfere!)
The settings can be changed by editing /etc/elementalx.conf and rebooting. Advanced users can apply settings on the fly by running /etc/init.d/99elementalx as root.
There is no need to edit /etc/init.d/99elementalx. All settings are configured in /etc/elementalx.conf.
If settings are not sticking, make sure the file permissions for /etc/init.d/99elementalx are set to execute. Every time the settings are applied, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx-kernel.log. Problems can be diagnosed by looking at the log file.
Please check to see if any /etc/init.d scripts or apps (such as Kernel Tuner or Trickstermod) are interfering with your settings.

Every boot, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx.log. This file shows the date and time and all settings that have been applied. Use this to verify and troubleshoot configuration options. Also shows your PVS bin.
Kernel Tuner/TricksterMod/Venom Tweaks, etc
You don't need these apps because the ElementalX installer sets everything up automatically, but if you want to check or change settings, you can use these apps. Just be aware that some of them (e.g. Kernel Tuner) are set by default to apply settings on boot, which can interfere with the settings you chose in the ElementalX installer.
Note: on the most recent versions, fauxclock interferes with GPU overclocking unless you disable pnpmgr (not recommended)
Overclocking
Overclocking (or underclocking) is optional. The installer lets you choose a maximum between 1134MHz (underclocked) and 2160MHz (overclocked). You can set the maximum frequency individually for each CPU core in the installer. Whatever frequencies you chose in the installer will be set at boot for each CPU. Not all devices can handle overclocking. The stock maximum CPU frequency is 1.7GHz. I recommend a mild overclock, like 1836MHz. Clocking higher creates heat and wastes battery for very little performance gain.
CPU voltages
The installer allows you to choose from several undervolting options. These automatically undervolt the lowest frequency (384MHz) where the CPU spends most of its time. The voltages for other frequencies are assigned based on the PVS bin of your phone. CPU voltages are fully customisable with apps such Kernel Tuner or Trickster Mod, but I recommend leaving these other voltages as-is unless you are prepared to do a lot of testing. Be careful, lowering voltages can cause instability. Generally, having reboots while the phone is asleep is a sign that your minimum voltage is too low. The minimum voltage allowed is 700mV.
Be careful with undervolting. If you have bluetooth or sound issues, try increasing the minimum voltage.
Minimum CPU frequency
The minimum CPU frequency in this kernel is 384MHz. This chip was not designed to operate below 384MHz and I am respecting Qualcomm's design decision to have the CPU idle on pll8 at 384MHz. There is a way to achieve lower frequencies using the high frequency pll, however, this is likely to cause instability and inefficient operation (battery drain, ui stuttering)
GPU frequencies
You can choose stock GPU frequency of 400MHz or overclock. If overclocked, you can choose from a range of frequencies up to 585MHz. Overclock frequencies can be changed on the fly, but you can't use the stock frequency. Conversely, if you choose stock GPU, the overclocking frequencies will not be available. To change between stock and overclocking mode, you need to reinstall. The same voltages are used no matter if the GPU is overclocked or not.
GPU Governor
The default GPU govenror is ondemand. It works well and is recommended for best balance between performance and batter life. The simple governor is also available, but ramps up the GPU frequency much quicker than ondemand, so may impact battery life. The governor can be set in /etc/elementalx.conf
Graphcis Boost
The latest versions include graphics boost, which lowers the up_threshold for ondemand governor when GPU is at max frequency. This helps mostly with graphics intensive games that use gyro controls, such as racing games. It can be enabled or disabled in /etc/elementalx.conf or through sysfs.
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/gboost
0=gboost disabled
1=gboost enabled
Thermal Control
I've added kernel based thermal control and throttling. HTC's thermald is very aggressive and throttles the CPU frequency pretty much anytime you use all four processors. This kernel based implementation allow better performance while still protecting your phone from overheating. There are three levels of thermal control, which can be chosen in the installer or changed in /etc/elementalx.conf. The default option is recommended. With the run cool option, your CPU will run about 5C cooler than default while under heavy load. With the run hot option, the CPU will run about 5C warmer than default under heavy load.
MPDecision settings
There are three mpdecision settings available: battery saving, stock and performance. I think they are self explanatory. These can be changed in /etc/elementalx.conf
Max screen off frequency
This is optional and must be selected in the installer. I recommend enabling it. This limits the max cpu frequency while the screen is off. The default max screen off frequency is 702MHz, which is a good balance between limiting the voltage/frequency and the time required to complete tasks while the screen is off. You can adjust this with applications such as Venom Tweaks.
CPU Governors
The default governor is ondemand (recommended). Intellidemand is also available.
I/O Schedulers
The default i/o scheduler is FIOPS. Other available schedulers are CFQ, FIOPS, SIO, NOOP and deadline.
Installing a new ROM
If you install a new ROM, it will probably replace this with the stock kernel and will definitely overwrite /etc/init.d/99elementalx and /etc/elementalx.conf so you will lose your settings and certain features. So always reinstall the kernel after installing a ROM.
Sweep2Wake
Sweep2wake (S2W) allows you to wake up your device by swiping your finger across the capacitive buttons from left to right. Swiping from right to left will put it back to sleep (sweep2sleep). The options are: sweep2wake/sweep2sleep, sweep2sleep only, and disabled. If you use apps such as Kernel Tuner, the sweep2sleep only option can be selected by choosing "On with backlight". You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
0=disabled
1=enable sweep2wake + sweep2sleep
2=enable sweep2sleep only
Sweep2wake button timeout
In earlier versions, sweeping to sleep brought you back to the homescreen. Starting in version 3.3, if you swipe fast enough, it will not register a home button press in the sweep, and your last app will be there when you unlock the phone again. Depending on how quick your fingers are, double tapping home could put the phone to sleep instead of opening recent apps. I've made the default button_timeout such that it is almost impossible for this to happen in normal use (button_timeout = 6). If you find that it happens too often, you can set button_timeout to a lower number, or disable it completely by setting it to 0.
/sys/android_touch/button_timeout
Accepted values are 0 to 15. 0 disables button timeout
• Higher values make it more likely that your last app will be open after you sweep to sleep, but there is a higher risk of accidentally putting the device to sleep when double tapping home.
• Lower values make it less likely that your last app will be open after you sweep to sleep, but reduces the chance of a double tap of home being mistaken for a sweep2sleep.
• Setting button_timeout to 0 disables this feature completely
The setting can be changed after installation in /etc/elementalx.conf
DoubleTap2Wake
DoubleTap2Wake (DT2W) allows you to wake the device by double tapping in the bottom inch or so of the screen, above the capacitive buttons. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake
0=disabled
1=enable doubletap2wake
Logo2Wake
Logo2Wake (L2W) allows you to sleep or wake the device by long pressing the HTC logo. You have to press just slightly above the HTC logo. The screen will automatically turn on or off with a long press. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/logo2wake
0=disabled
1=enable logo2wake
Pocket Detection
Pocket detection protects against accidental wakes while S2W, DT2W or L2W are enabled and the phone is in your pocket. Pocket detection uses the proximity sensor. A few people have a problem with their proximity sensor that makes DT2W not work, so I've made an option to disable pocket detection. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/pocket_detect
0=disabled
1=enable pocket detection
Logo2Menu
Enabling Logot2Menu (L2M) allows you to use the HTC logo as a menu button. You must press just slightly above the HTC logo. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/logo2menu
0=disabled
1=enable logo2menu
Button Light Notification
With Button Light Notification (BLN), the capacitive buttons will blink on and off when you have a new notification. As soon as the screen comes on, BLN is canceled and the lights will no longer blink until you have another notification. Please note that if you have your screen set to turn on when a message arrives, you will not see the buttons blinking because once the screen comes on, the button light notification is canceled. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/class/leds/button-backlight/blink_buttons
0 = disabled
1 = BLN enabled
NTFS and exFAT support
This is for anyone who wants to use OTG to connect a USB stick or portable harddrive formatted with Microsoft's NTFS and exFAT filesystems. You will need Stickmount or a similar app, HTC Sense does not automatically detect these filesystems.
Paid Apps
All the cryptographic modules load properly, so you shouldn't have an issues with paid apps.
Other stuff
This kernel supports many game pads and controllers, including PS3 controllers and some X-Box controllers. It has full OTG support. A refresh rate of 60Hz for HDMI output allows you to play games on the big screen without choppiness. CIFS support is built into the kernel. Faux sound control is also supported.

Mostly that the settings chosen during install are actually applied.
It should run nice and smooth with default settings. If performance or battery or worse than stock, something is not right.

BATTERY CARE - a must read for everyone!
Disclaimer:
I am not to be held responsible if anything goes wrong. Simple as that. You do these mods of your own free will.
Warning:
Please, do not report issues or complain about lousy battery times/performance, if you've used any of those pre-made scripts that promise godly battery or performance - they often cause more trouble than they're worth, and are mostly snake oil. And often, you cannot easily undo those changes. If you run a lot of background apps ( for example, five different messengers that cause wakelocks or increased battery usage ), then this guide is not for you. Do not report issues if you've modded your phone with any audio scripts ( like v4a ), xposed, or anything like that! Do not report if you did any permanent system mods, period! These kernel are for CLEAN & STOCK phones, that are rooted ONLY. To summarize, I will not bother replying if you did anything to your phone besides the tweaks I recommend.
Nothing done here is permanent. Everything can be returned to stock in a matter of minutes, if you prefer so, just by uninstalling Kernel Adiutor, unfreezing the bloatware and power cycling the phone.
And hugs to all that pushed the "Thanks!" button. Hell, hugs for everyone!!!
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
BEFORE WE START...
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●​
Must be done before modifying CPU values:
Open your hidden system menu by dialing 277634#*#, go down to Power, find items "High temperature property" and "Thermal mitigation daemon", and set them like this:
High Temp Prop OFF
Disabled
Thermal Mitigation
Disabled
After that, turn phone off, wait 15-20 seconds and turn back on.. The screen will not dim in hot conditions anymore. Benchmarks are higher, games run smoother. And we can tweak our CPUs.
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
KERNEL ADIUTOR SETTINGS
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●​
Apply on boot time is to be decided by the user. Although Kernel Adiutor waits for boot complete, I noticed ( on few occasions ) that it takes more time to apply the settings properly. Why? Who knows. Depends on the number of apps you have running on boot, version of the firmware or how lazy it is on boot... Safest setting is 40 seconds, but 20 should cause no issues and is preferred. 10 can be a problem.
CPU:
CPU Maximum Frequency: 1209
CPU Minimum Frequency: 800
CPU Governor: interactive
*note: Minimum frequency is set to default 800, since Snapdragon 410 draws the same voltage on 200, 400, 533 and 800. That's the reason I set the frequency back to 800 idle. No need to go lower for absolutely no gain in battery life or performance.
CPU Governor Tunables subsection:
above_hispeed_delay: 20000 1094400:40000
go_hispeed_load: 80
hispeed_freq: 998400
min_sample_time: 40000
timer_slack: -1
DEFAULT ( 7+h SOT ) - target_loads: 1 800000:75 998400:80 1094400:85
PERFORMANCE ( smoother, few hours less SOT ) - target_loads: 1 800000:75 998400:80 1094400:80 1152000:85
timer_rate: 20000
max_freq_hysteresis: 40000
*note: Reason for system lags is found in the cheaper and slower memory LG has used for H440N ( my guess is, to cut cost ). You can test that yourself by running various I/O benchmark tools and noting speeds of random and sequential reads/writes. I did not manage to make that better in any way by tweaking the I/O schedulers, be it deadline, cfq or row - even testing some examples from Franco's Dev Team. Seems that it's best to leave it on cfq and cut overhead with the flashtweaks init.d script found later mentioned in this post.
Frequency changes happen VERY fast. So fast that CPU widgets or passive frequency readers have a lousy time keeping up. Only values you can trust are found in Kernel Adiutor's Frequency Table.
Those values found above are the best possible values for H440N's CPU for performance & battery saving, and I stand by them. If anyone else cares to try and do some tweaking to improve on those, by all means, please do so. If in the future I decide to add new CPU values, they will be strictly performance based, hence no battery saving.
Reason for the CPU frequency sticking to 1209600 is caused by the LG Home launcher. It contains a system call where, if you open up your apps drawer, it immediately ramps up the frequency to the max for almost 8 seconds or until you close the app drawer! That sucks, and is a lazy way for LG to provide smooth app drawer opening/swiping/closing! Bad LG, bad!!!
Two ways to solve that:
1. Spend less time listing through your apps drawer, since the frequency drops as soon as you stop swiping through it, or...
2. Freeze LG Home and use another launcher ( like Nova or Apex ), if you don't mind losing Double Tap to Wake, or work around that problem with launchers that support double tap gesture and link that gesture with a screen off app like this. Do not freeze any LG Home system apps, besides Easy Home. No need. System will automatically kill the unneeded launcher. Just follow my frozen bloatware list. Nothing more, nothing less.

Init.d
1. Turn on "Emulate Init.d" and click that big "+" to create a new script.
2. Name the new script: flashtweaks
Contents of the "flashtweaks" script are:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/nomerges;
echo 2 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/rq_affinity;
echo 512 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/nr_requests;
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/iostats;
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/add_random;
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/nomerges;
echo 2 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/rq_affinity;
echo 512 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/nr_requests;
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/iostats;
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/add_random;
2. Name the new script: tcptweaks
Contents of the "tcptweaks" script are:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
#more reasonable tcp tweaks
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_low_latency;
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_timestamps;
echo 900 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time;
echo 5 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_probes;
echo 156 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_intvl;
Example of properly added scripts. I just named them differently:
Ignore the "99SuperSUDaemon" script unless you know what it is. It's not needed for our tweaks, and if you don't have it, it's perfectly fine.
Here are some screenshots on clearing / checking Kernel Adiutor's Frequency Table, by our fellow XDA member jonathansmith:

In Settings / Display / Brightness enable Night Brightness. Who needs anything over 0% brightness from midnight to six in the morning?
Visit Play Store and install these apps:
Recently by Chainfire
Trimmer (fstrim)
Recently! settings ( preferred ):
Age limit: No limit
Entry limit: 12
Apply on boot: Yes
Freeload: Checked ( yeah, we're cheapskates )

Min 200 Max 1200
Interactive / Noop
Other values as suggested.
But, damn. Those original settings must've drained the battery like hell... Are people at LG crazy?
EDIT: Sometimes, SetCPU will show the lowest frequency as 1200, but don't worry. Set it to 200, and verify it's at 200 in Times in state on the last SetCPU tab. It seems to be a bug in the app. That's why I used Kernel Adiutor.

ondemand + noop + lmk set to agressive and the phone flies like never before! looks like constant 60 fps. Thanks op!

Always glad to help out. Like I mentioned before, this phone has good hardware and is capable of stellar performance. Only problem is LG did not pay much attention on the tweaking side of things.
It's easy for them to tweak flagships
EDIT: Just found out about another gem! The app is called Recently by chainfire.
Installed, tried and it's marvelous even on default settings. I encourage everyone to try it. It's what Recent cards were supposed to be, in my opinion.

So I installed Busybox and Kernel Adiutor, set CPU min frequency to 200 Mhz, cpu governor to interactive and and I/O scheduler to noop. I've set both to apply on boot. Is that everything I need to do?

It is, if you don't mind the default Interactive values. Otherwise, go a bit lower to "CPU Governor Tunables". Click that and set values as mentioned in first post. Those give a much better battery life.
After that, my recommendation is to visit the Low Memory Killer section and set that to Aggressive and apply on boot.
I can say that, after a bit of tweaking, this phone rocks! Glad to have bought it. Still hoping for a unlocked bootloader and maybe a CM port

Can you please take a screenshot of your CPU Governor Tunables section? I'm not completely sure that I did it right.

No problem, my good man. Here they are:

holy ..! this really does make a difference. is it ok if i set cpu to "performance" and dont mess anything else with it? i dont care about battery life that much. cuz it seems that with agressive setting for ram, and changing to "noop" made wonders for me performance wise

Performance governor forces 1200, so that's not desirable.
For the best performance with lowest idle, set it to Ondemand / Noop. You will lose a bit more battery with those, but the phone will fly.
Otherwise, set as I've set it. Tweaked interactive.

userspace,powerspace hotplug and performance is what i have in karnel auditor.. which one should i choose then? tyvm!
p.s. thanks again for these tips man

That's strange. Are you using the LG Spirit H440N or some other variation?
See here ( list of governors ):

ah right. that could be a reason.. i use 3g version, with mediatek cpu

amazing speed and multitasking (with Recently), thank you for this

Can you help me with target loads? Is this ok?

String seems to be written ok, but my guess is it will clash with go_hispeed_load value.
If go_hispeed_load has a value of 85, then your initial value in target loads can't be "1". It must be higher than 85.
We're using our hispeed frequency ( 400000 ) as idle. It often drops to 200, so I see no reason of adding 200 to target loads.
Did you check out my post above?
Also, take a look at my KA frequency table:

It seems that ive messed up something. Now my phone wont go deepsleep. This is the result over night.

Can you make a screenshot of your target loads. Im having a hard time making it work. Performance is on point but i get a lot of battery drain.

[PnP&Thermals tweak] Custom profiles for battery saving and/or better performance-v24

Addon was originally only available on Venom HUB but i decided to release it for everyone to use.Here is copy paste of description and changelogs from the HUB.I will update thread as i update it on HUB.
Also big thanks to @hamdir for testing my performance profile on various games, he will also post later hes review, pictures and comparisons to stock.
This addon is designed to save some extra battery, and reduce heat.Magic is done in 2 files:
1:Thermal-engine is tweaked in order to provide much better sustained performance and cooler phone, without big impact on performance.
2np file is another key component, its HTCs CPU/GPU/EMMC/MODEM and many more control engine.Here many tweaks where done, but gonna quickly list some of the important ones:
-Per app control, automatically suspends 2 BIG cores, and runs on 2 low power ones, it also limits the GPU speed to lowest.This will do only for some most commonly used apps, like Sense Prism, Nova launcher, Apex, other HTC apps, various chat programs(hangouts, facebook, messanger, whatsap etc), YouTube and some more.. as those apps dont require a lot power.
-Screen off is set to 2 low power cores for nice standby times
-Power saver is tweaked to actually save some power and not just lower screen brightness
-Extreme powersaver is also tweaked down to save even more power
-Input boost frequencies are also lowered (CPU ramps up moment you touch screen)
-And alot of other minor tweakups..
Also its recommended not to change anything CPU/GPU related in any other apps, like EX and just let this files do the job for you.
If for some reason you dont like this mod or have any problems with it, installer includes revert to stock option

Performance Profile
I've worked with @ivicask on optimizing gaming performance for the 1.80 base via the performance profile for this mod, in this post i will explain the gaming problem on stock HTC 10 and how this mod/performance profile solves it
by default HTC aggressively cripples the Snapdragon 820, not for the sake of thermals but for the sake of extending battery life, what happens is the following:
Stock CPU behavior on HTC ten (up to 1.80 base):
Starting with 33c battery temp CPU tasks will gradually migrate out of the big cluster, around 38c one of the two big Kryo cores (which enjoy higher clocks and bigger hardware cache) will be completely disabled, HTC smartly hides it in task migration rather than physically shutting down a big core
This means in CPU intensives games like Dead Effect 2 you will notice a sharp drop in performance/smoothness once the fourth core is killed, the game will drop from the 60fps range to 30fps, this behavior is noticeable in many games, if you are on complete stock you can only game at the full s820 speed if you are starting from a cool idle battery temp like 30c but then in about 5 minutes things will go downhill, considering that the HTC 10 idle state in average use is around 35c anyway you can see how most people probably start gaming on the 10 within the crippled state
Previously the only way to fix was to flash EX kernel with CPU migration hacked and already set by default to 60% limit, meaning EX kernel will refuse to let HTC 10 migrate tasks out of the fourth core under 40%, this is a good solution but you are forced to use EX kernel and not the stock kernel plus wait for the kernel source so that EX is updated whenever an OTA is rolled out, this mod will allow you to fix gaming on HTC 10 without touching the kernel plus it's thermally safe as its not a hack and will still gradually slow down the 10 to cool down, but it does so in a sane way
The performance profile in this mod was thoughtfully optimized by profiling the CPU usage in Dead Effect 2 (currently one of the heaviest games on the playstore) from 30c up to 45c, giving you enough time to actually enjoy this game at its full speed up to 30 minutes
The following tests will show you how the HTC 10 behaves in gaming when warm vs the performance profile, profiled using @ivicask tools and game benched in short sessions, the exact same level played from the same starting point to the same end at the same length of time, this level called "return to space gardens" is one of the heaviest sections in Dead Effect 2, at the end of this test you can see how performance drops to the ground because it meets a very dense and tough section in the game.
Stock kernel / PNP / thermals, Dead Effect 2 at 39c
The fourth big core is completely killed, GPU goes to 510mhz, small cluster drops to 1.3ghz, big cluster drops to 1.5ghz
As you can see on pure stock 1.80 base by 39c the games loses one of the big s820 cores and performance drops from 45fps range in this level to 30fps (which happens way too fast) also as seen in the yellow graph how performance stability is terrible, after 40c it will get even worse
here are the results from the same level using the performance profile of this mod
Performance Profile, Dead Effect 2 at 34c to 38c
full tasks are still running on all cores, GPU at 624mhz, small cluster still at 1.5ghz, big cluster drops to 1.5ghz
Performance Profile, Dead Effect 2 at 39c to 41c
both big cores drops to 80% task migration, GPU drops to 560mhz, small cluster still at 1.5ghz, big cluster still at 1.5ghz
Performance Profile, Dead Effect 2 at 42c to 43c
one big core sticks to 80% task migration the other big core drops further to 60%, GPU drops to 510mhz, small cluster still at 1.5ghz, big cluster still at 1.5ghz
Once the device gets warmer after 43c CPU migration will drop to 60% on both big cores with further reduction in GPU speed etc, but at this stage the HTC 10 will no longer heat up as fast and as you can see up to this point it was maintaining almost the same performance in this game; while keeping fairly high GPU clocks too; this is a much more subtle well thought performance degradation than HTC's stock blind brute crippling of the s820 which happens way too fast on low temps
This profile is so good actually HTC should probably copy it and imitate how it deals with default CPU migration, otherwise why are we buying an s820?

does it work differently from butterfly v11?
or say does it conflict with butterflyv11 if you have already loaded that profile and flash this zip?
thanks for another tweak made possible for Perfume devices

Completely different, it uses HTCs native engines to control everything, u can basically flash this on stock un-rooted phone
And doesn't require custom kernel, it should work immediately as new bases come out etc..

Half of this mod runs in PnP, if you disable it, your making this mod almost pointless.
Also, as i stated, this mod runs best standalone, its best not to use any other mods, or apps which change anything CPU /GPU related.
You can still flash EX kernel for example, i just dont recommend messing with any CPU/GPU related settings in it.

cool so this would conflict as butterflyv11 disables the pnp
would try this and see :highfive:

hey
great to see you released this for all on xda!
I have a question. since you wrote on the ex kernel thread that pnp config file is encrypted how come you can edit it?
or can you englighten me how i can just disable all Input and touch boosts from pnpmgr while keeping pnpmgr?
i think that would be the best for my script but i wasn´t able to do so.
i found no other way to stop the touchboost other than disabling pnpmgr completely.
maybe we can integrate my interactive values with your mod? if you are okay with this of course!
thanks

I cant give you much details on how i edit them, theres reason HTC encrypted them, if we spill it out, HTC would change encryption and everything very soon i suspect, so hope you understand why i wont share that part.
I can disable input boost for you, but im still not sure how your mod works along with PnP, as PnP constantly changes values dynamically, if you chmod values, than PnP constantly tries to change freqs and fails(may cause some problems).
What i can also do, is incorporate your changes directly into my mod, and make "ghostpeper" profile which would work directly in PnP, and people can choose and test which one works better for them and their daily usage.
EDIT:You could simple disable input boost by echoing 0(maybe chmod remove write permission after that so it cant change it) to
/sys/power/pnpmgr/touch_boost
/sys/power/pnpmgr/long_duration_touch_boost

yep i totally understand this. it would be however great if you could disable Input boost for me directly in the pnp binary.
i already tried to edit the files you mentioned in sys/power/pnpmgr. when i did this I got heavy lags. really heavy. i think something is conflicting there.
yeah the chmod trick worked before base 1.80. i would simply chmod the min freqs for big and Little Cluster and touchboost from pnpmgr disappeared magically. this trick is no longer working with the new base. that´s why i was forced to disable pnpmgr.
if you want to you can incorporate the Butterfly values for the interactive governor in your mod. I think Butterfly works far better on our 10, that´s why i just updated Butterfly for base 1.80.
does pnpmgr also edit the values for the interactive gov dynamically?
if you could make a pnpmgr config where touch/Input boost, Setting min/max freqs is disabled i´d be quite happy.

you may also just edit my script and comment out with a # or delete the line "stop pnpmgr" then the pnpmgr conflicting part will at least be removed.

PnP controls everything u mentioned, all your butterfly/ghost scripts has, and about 10x times even more
I checked your script, you just echo to disable input boost, try chmod it after you disable it with denial permission so it cant be changed..
Should work, if not i can mode PnP for you, but above would be better solution for you..

Maybe others might ask too, sometimes I'm using it too for a systemless mod: do you plan to add it in as a systemless mod, if it is possible?

well, just related to OTAs, but that might be unimportant as you can flash back to original files, or restore no-RW mounted system image backups.
Or am i lagging behind, it's working to have a RW mounted system and do OTA updates? I don't follow that part much, my bad

Its so much easier just to restore original image, i think wont do it systemless, as they are key system parts, dont want some weird things to happen..

I'm testing balanced option at the moment.
Also, i know I'm off topic, but in the end what's the recipe: what does and what doesn't affect androidPay. (I'm lagging behind again in this topic, just avoid modifying system partition in my kernel as it seemed to affect it at that time... as i don't use androidPay I didn't follow what exactly makes it unworking).

PnP controls everything u mentioned, all your butterfly/ghost scripts has, and about 10x times even more
I checked your script, you just echo to disable input boost, try chmod it after you disable it with denial permission so it cant be changed..
Should work, if not i can mode PnP for you, but above would be better solution for you..

Thanks I will try this and come back at you

It checks alot of things, and its constantly updated, its simple must be done for security reasons..

Okay so I tried it with 444 permissions and it still lags. Should I try 000?
Would be great if you could make me a file with touchboost disabled and frequency changing disabled.

best kernel adiutor settings for moto g6 play

I have a rooted moto g6 play and I read that using kernel adiutor to overclock this phone will make it a lot faster. The problem is, I have no idea what to set the settings to. If any of you have a moto g6 play, could you tell me which settings would be best or the settings you have? Thanks

Here's the settings I use. I was actually planning on making a guide that would cover this very subject -- however, I've been inundated with "life". As my friend told me, "Sometimes Life -- Lifes you." Right?
Anyways. This setup I'm about to describe works absolutely perfectly for me... With that said, it *may* not be the best for everyone. I'm not a multi-tasker, and I run an extremely lean operation for maximum power availability. So, if you're an avid multi-takser, you'll probably want to stay away from this. However, if you do one thing at a time and want maximum battery life mixed with moderate speed boost -- you'll love this.
I use Kernel Aduitor primarily because I like the interface better than Ex Kernel Manager. With that in mind, I'll just go down the list using Kernel Auditor's app... I do run Ex-KM as well, but only for 1 particular setting which I'll cover when I get there.
Lets begin!!
Prereq Software: L-Speed by Paget, Kernel Auditor, and ExKernel Manager.
Using Kernel Auditor:
1) --CPU--
a)Max 1401, Min 960.
b)Conservative Governor (w/ 50 down, 3 freq step, 1 ignore nice load, 1 sampling down factor, 66666 for both sampling rates, 95 up threshold)
c)Schedule workloads on awake cpus (ON!)
2) --GPU--
a)Max Freq 650 (If gaming, or graphically intense use -- otherwise I go to 484, and even 400)
b)Min Freq 270
c)Governor (I typically run Simple On Demand for daily use, powersave for battery, and bump up performance and a higher frequency of 650mhz if I need it)
3) --I/O--
a)NOOP Scheduler
b)Not tunable.
c)read ahead -- honestly, I've tried every single setting using different benchmarks, and it appears to make a little difference. I simply use 512kb as my default. Feel free to adjust accordingly if you use your phone in a way that benefits from it.
d)I keep all three settings turned off -- rotational, stats, and add random. IO Stats is on by default I think, by turning it off it will give a very minimal boost in performance. But I'll take every inch I can get out of it... ya know?
e)RQ Affinity is 1 by default, I use 2.
4)LMK
25, 50, 100, 175, 275, 400 (Again, this is purely because I run a lean operation with minimal multitasking. Feel free to adjust to your needs)
5)Virtual Memory (This is a nice performance boosting tuneable screen)
Dirty: 90
DirRat: 50
Expire: 10000
Writeback: 25000
Min Free: 15000kb
oom killing: 1
Overcommit: 100
Swappiness: ZERO!!
VFS Cache: 200
Laptop: ZERO
Extra Free: 10000
And the best thing I've done for my phone, I do believe: ZRAM ----> ZERO! Zram is a waste of resources and sucks life out of your phone with its constant encryption and decryption routine. With 3gb of ram, and a properly tuned LMK --- you'll get a noticeable boost in smooth performance here. I hate Zram!
6) Entropy
I use light settings here 64/192.
--------------------------------------
Now, EX-Kernel Manager... I only use it for one setting. By default, when the GPU is at idle -- it hums along at 400mhz. You can adjust this in ExKM down to a true idle of 270mhz. You'll not sacrifice any performance, but may get a small bump in battery life.
-------------------------------------
L-Speed is one of my favorite apps I've ever used. Tons of useful scripts that really make a difference.
Upon initial setup, just kinda breeze through the opening screens. Don't use one of the preprogram'd tunes. Here's what I use specifically (If its not listed on this list, that means its either disabled or default and thats where I want to keep it. :
Main Tweaks:
Disable Debugging - ON
Panic - OFF
Sleeper Optimize: ON
Flag Tuner: OFF (I used to run ON, but it developed lagginess, and turning it back off appeared to correct this. Feel free to try either for your personal use)
Improved Scrolling: ON
Liquid Smooth UI: ON
Animations: ZERO across the board.
Battery:
Battery Improvement - ON
Doze Optimize - ON
Aggresive Doze - ON
CPU:
Gov Tuner - DISABLED (or else it will cause you to lose your settings in Kernel Auditor)
CPU Optimizer - ON
LNET:
Net Buffers - BIG
RIL Tweaks - ON
TCP Tweaks - ON
Net Speed+ - ON
Wifi Scanning OFF
DNS Optimizer - ON (uses google DNS, or maybe cloudfare now.. but its super smooth)
IO Tweaks:
Tuner - OFF
Boost - ON
Extended Queue - ON
Part Remount - ON
Disable IO stats - ON
RAM:
MAnager - Default (for me, you may need another setup if you multitask)
Don't Keep Activities - ON
Dynamic VM: OFF
Skip the next 4 or 5 options, leave disabled or default.
Heap Optimize: ON
OOM Killer: ON
Dump Tasks: OFF
ZRAM OPTimizer: OFF
Ftrim
DO IT. Then set to run on boost, and schedule it for every 6 hours or so to keep it running effecient and smooth.
Last thing... I go to the developer menu under settings within the operating system, and turn on "Force GPU to run 2d operations".
-------------
I get incredible battery life at these settings. A super snappy phone with minimal lag. And if I need a quick jolt of power, I just crack up the CPU and GPU to max settings.. and I'm good to go!
Enjoy.
Thanks for reading. Sorry so long.
