I would be pretty surprised if you had that disabled in the kernel :D

If you had, you wouldn't need a governor (since that's the "Dynamic Frequency" part), and without it, CPUs would only run at full speed as they used to do about a decade or more ago or so.

And you certainly have "Dynamic Voltage", as that's the appyling a different voltage per frequency step (and per CPU BIN version).

What you mean to say is, people should disable Samsung's crappy attempt at userspace controlled DVFS, that's where the ROM is trying to interfere with kernel stuff (which is a really stupid thing). This they did mainly (at least) to cheat in bencharks, as as soon as the ROM sees a benchmarking app running, it will put all 4 cores online and at 2GHz minimum, so the result of the benchmark is higher and not potentially influenced by a not high enough load from the benchmarking apps to have the governor rev up the CPU that far.

DVFS on Wikipedia

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] itsmikeramsay:
Oh. I guess they have it running without any switches and stuff. I grepped 'dvfs' and had no results. But I'll look even more and see. But thanks for the heads up bro. Thought I had it but, I know you know much more lol. I hate that dvfs thing.

Have you started playing with source yet?

He has released several alphas for cm11 for new bootloaders. Nothing 100% stable as of yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Yank555:
There no hating it, you should love it, and your kernel uses it to its full extend, and that's good that way.

Your kernel does Dynamic Frequance Scaling : governors change CPU freq. depending on load (and other factors)

Your kernel does Dynamic Voltage Scaling : the voltage of the CPU is changed depending on the dice quality (BIN) and freq. used.

So there is absolutely nothing to be done in the kernel here !

What is a mess is Samsung having its ROM interfering with what is part of the kernel's job, handle the hardware.

This needs disabling on the ROM side of the story, and that's that ;)

Just about, but CM's unified kernel... Unfortunately I can't test myself as I still have the old bootloader and run the old CM11, so it's blind development, and that's really not cool, takes lots of time to debug stuff, but well, that's how it is thanx to Samsung :silly:

Anyway, the Note 3 is my last Samsung device, I've really had enough of their crap :mad:

JP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] itsmikeramsay:
Gotcha. Makes compete sense now. Have you experienced the random reboots with ondemand?

Posted by Note 3 powered by ColonelX!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Yank555:
Well since I'm on the old CM, the kernel is still JB-TW based (even if it's CM KK), so no issues with ondemand for myself, and that's what I'm running all day long (well yankdemand, a slightly modified ondemand, nothing you couldn't do using scripts to change the governor tunables).

As for alpha-testers, some report reboots, but looks like not as often as with stock CM kernel, though all I did so far is take stock CM source and upstream it to 3.4.84. That kernel seems to run fine, well as fine as stock CM at least.

After that I started porting my stuff, but that's not so easy, much has to be redone almost from scratch, partially a totally different approach.

So far I've pinpointed one issue to be the new fast charge implementation which is not yet working correctly (kernel doesn't boot)... other than that, mdnie is redone, hardlimit as well.

I've just spent half a day on the kernel so far ... so it's pretty early to report much.

JP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] itsmikeramsay:
Half a day and you did that? You're killing then man. Me it's been weeks lol. I'm learning a lot still lol. Maybe the ondemand or ondemand-based govs issue is the scaling to max so fast... Not 100% sure but it's a thought. It seems devices using the SnapD 800 chipset seems to be having the issue.

Posted by Note 3 powered by ColonelX!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Yank555:
Only since Samsungs's KK kernel rebase ... the "old" one was, well in fact, still is running perfectly fine, be it on JB-TW or hltexx CM11.

New base started a whole new set of issues, I guess they call that "progress" :eek: :D

JP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] itsmikeramsay:
Lol tell me about it! Once the kinks are worked out, I imagine things will be much better in terms of performance and battery than it was on JB. I turned DVFS off ROM side using an Xposed module and battery life is immediately better imo, so is performance. But I would really like to get ondemand straight. That's THE most common governor used...

I say thanks to Samsung for such crappy source, or at least the changes that make it crappy lol

Alright peeps my one day of testing is done. I'll be updating and pushing today. Not one reboot after disabling ondemand. It's only temporary until a permanent fix is found.

No screenshot but my stats were 16 hours on battery with 2 hours of screen on time with 55% left before I put it on the charger last night. Make sure you guys deactivate dvfs if the ROM you're running hasn't already.

I'll be updating soon. Have some houses to show today and some family stuff to take care of. Look for it this evening.

How do u check and deactivate dvfs?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Dvanzutphenkann:
I deactivated dvfs and it kept what ever core that was running at max output meaning more battery drain. I believe I read on here one of the kernel devs yank555 say that without dvfs there's no need for governors so just saying. But there's a xposed module for disabling dvfs I found it on a Google search

Want better battery life? Freeze Samsung push service, install and activate killjoy scripts, and use greenify. My battery last longer than I need it to
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Yank555:
Read up my posts a few pages back, and the wiki link I posted ;)

DVFS is a good thing and

you cannot and should not turn it off

, it's in the kernel.

What it does is change the CPU frequency (=governor) and voltage (each freq. has its own voltage) that's what DVFS means, it stands for Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling.

What is crappy, is Samsung messing with this from the ROM side (userspace).

Wanam's Xposed module has a switch to disable that, can't be more precise, I'm on CM where this Samsung crap does not exist, so no clue about Wanam's TW module as I can't use it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Dvanzutphenkann:
I was agreeing with you on that I just didn't go into as much detail. I'm a noob so I didn't and don't fully comprehend the rom side of Samsung screwing with our user space. I noticed with the wanam dvfs module I used it caused more battery drain
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] steve97ta:
I disabled the DVFS through Wanam the last 2 days and haven't seen any issues, battery life about the same but been watching movies daily. I'm gonna charge it up and leave the DVFS on in Wanam. Running Infamous, leankernel and killjoy currently. Phone runs great and sleeps real nice. Sorry been watching this thread cause of the DVFS and the release of the kernel. Don't mean to offend anyone or to Mikeramsey to bring up anyone else's work.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] itsmikeramsay:
Not 100% sure why some people are having this issue... what governor are u using?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BlueChris:
Kernel is great, long time since my s2 days I haven't seen a kernel to consume 18-32ma in deep sleep so I'm extremely happy, I have a question though.

I am forced to pass stock kernel whenever I want to use my all share cast dangle because it doesn't play when system status is custom, I'm hopping some day a kernel will conform something like the Stock kernel to fool the system status.

I do mobile Odin to pass the Stock and the whole procedure takes less than a minute but when I roll back installing this kernel it always wipes cache and I w8 5 mins because I have 952 apps and needs a long time to boot, is there a way to make the install of this great kernel not to wipe?

Thx in advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dadr0p:
I noticed that when using fauxclock for overclocking, only the 1st beta sticks at 2.96 & 2nd as well as 3rd revision of kernel don't. They just revert back to 2.23 so what ever was changed between 1st and 2nd version is the cause.

I'm using stock rom, rooted.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dohclude:
I was having problems getting settings to stick with trickster mod once. I fixed it by removing the entry for trickster from SuperSU, and allowing trickster to ask for root permissions again. This might work for other kernel config apps as well if it works for trickster so give it a shot.

On another note, I can't seem to get this kernel to work on my phone. Running tweaked alpha, phone is a pvs_bin "1". Phone boots, but shortly after hitting the lockscreen it will either reboot on it's own or it will freeze and I will have to pull battery or hold power to reboot.

*EDIT - Okay, really weird... I would normally just flash back to leankernel after the first few reboots when trying a new kernel, but this time I just let it ride. After about 7-8 reboots it started running stable again lol. Running stock clock speeds so far, but appears somewhat stable at the moment.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] itsmikeramsay:
I'll remove the wipe cache part of the installation process just so this doesn't happen bro...

Also, what kernel are governor are you using?

I'll look into why settings possibly won't stick... can't be something to hard to spot....

Look...I'm not trying to say don't post on the thread at all. Everyone on XDA is here to help, but you're using a 7200mAh battery so any input there is useless for thread development, and it's great you can OC to 3000 but that's not a wise way at all of using the ability to overclock. I apologize for coming off rude, I what I read sounded like bragging, not constructive criticism. I agree with you - this kernel is well developed, and hats off to the dev for making a non-cherry-picked git kernel.
