[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
This is what I was talking about bro [MENTION=4598683]Destroyedbeauty[/MENTION] !! :D

Thanks for sharing, settings noted :)

Could you share this init.d script?

[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Check my recommended settings post HERE - performance wise, it is equal to using regular Intelliplug (=balanced mode) in my own experiences. Just some extra battery savings and less heat generating :)
[Xperia Z1 General] kingbeta:
With this setup I was going for maximum battery savings while still retaining a smooth UI.

I noticed moving from intellidemand to intelliactive, the CPU frequency was sitting much higher, even when not much was going on. So I've tried to tame that somewhat, while keeping responsiveness at much as possible.

So far this is working great - over five hours screen time. Feel free to critique!

Bit laggy for me buddy...anyway it's so good for battery saving...

I'm on trinity rom + kernel (2.2 stable)
[Xperia Z1 General] kingbeta:
Yeah, after more testing it got laggy for me in some situations, so since then I've tweaked a bit more.

i use trinity kernell 2.4 and FauxClock is awesome

antutu 43.660
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
for performance and battery life what governor can i use with trinity v2.4? i used intellidemand but it isn't so fast so i set intelliactive for better performance. any suggestion?

for the gpu what frequency and governor we can use? i can get more than 12k in antutu with simple governor and 533mhz
[Xperia Z1 General] marcelorider:
I use intelliactive and works flawless for both battery and performance ;)
[Xperia Z1 General] kingbeta:
I agree with the suggestion for Intelliactive, eco conservative profile. For GPU frequency, I currently use 389 MHz. Then in fauxclock I set individual per app profiles for apps that might need faster GPU or more CPU cores online.

Note, I've disabled screen-off frequency, as it kept bugging when the phone was in deep sleep and the alarm clock went off.
[Xperia Z1 General] marcelorider:
I've been trying the Destroyedbeauty settings and everything is beeing smooth and not having that much battery consumption...

[MENTION=4598683]Destroyedbeauty[/MENTION] what are the funcitions of C0,C1,C2,C3? How they work?

Also if we set simple_on demand governor without activate simple gpu algorithm, the laziness and ramp treshould bars work or work only with simple gpu algorithm active?
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
Thanks my friend,waiting a lot for them :laugh:

We need more of this, keep it up :good:
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
1) The C0, C1, C2 and C3 is the sleep / idle states that the cores is utilizing when going into low power modes for saving battery.

[MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] did write down a good explanation on this subject a couple of months / years ago, here;

C0 - Shallowest sleep (dozing off) with instant wake up

C1 - slightly deeper sleep with slight latency when waking up

C2 - deeper sleep with longer latency when waking up

C3 - really deep sleep (like REM sleep in real life) with longest latency when waking up

More info on the C-states - Read HERE!

2) If the Simple_Ondemand and Simple GPU Algorithm is working on conjuring or not.. I am not sure actually, but for being on the safe side - use my settings, for optimal secureness and stability.

Thank you, dude! I wish I could get the same results out from the Interactive governor, but that beast is tricky to control.. ;)

EDIT: [MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION] I did update the post with settings for the White Balance control that Sony did include, so the screen will be calibrated properly..
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
And what about msm-adreno-tz for gpu?...it is Strange because the gpu stay at max frequency even with no load O.o
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
That GPU Governor is just for gaming, nothing else. Change to Simple_Ondemand and then activate Simple GPU Algorithm. Better performance and less battery usage, with laziness=0 and ramp_threshold=8000 !
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
And what about intelliactive? It isn't better than on demand?
[Xperia Z1 General] dedei:
That may sound silly, but can we use the cpu governor settings on stock kernel?
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
It is too aggressive and hard to tame. And is useless for battery savings..

Yup, but I recommend you then to set the "sys.somc.touch_perf_kick=1" build.prop value to 0 instead, if you are going to use stock kernel. The touch boost thing in Qualcomm MP-Decision is aggressive regarding frequency by jumping to 1190 Mhz nearly every time.. Keep it off.
[Xperia Z1 General] BaCKo85:
Thanks for the settings . But with this settings i have sometimes lag :(
[Xperia Z1 General] kingbeta:
It will be interesting to see how faux123's new Intellimm governor will improve battery life.
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
No lag here for me. Have you tried with 1) Installing Optimized Xperia Z1 Dalvik and Bionic Libs and 2) Wiped Cache and Dalvik in recovery? My phone is lagfree on those aggressive battery saving settings..

Hmm, tell us more..
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
What cpu governor do you suggest for better performance than ondemand?
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
+1

Lag persist also after this... Some lag on UI (scrolling or launch animation for apps) and also on gaming :(

Anyway battery life is perfect, amazing! :good:

Check this post by faux .
[Xperia Z1 General] BaCKo85:
when i make cpu govern on : intelliactive and gpu govern on msm_andreno_tz everything is so faster without lag . but i don`t know is this options is good for battery life :(
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Heavily tweaked Interactive. Tweak it for battery, performance will still be there ;)

Hm, I got no single lag here on my Z1, so it is strange. Try with lowering "Sampling_Rate: 120000" to 90000 or 75000 instead and see if responsive issues is removed.

Interesting.. Hope for a port to Z1 / additional Snapdragon 800 chipset equipped devices..

This is a profile / set-up just for raw performance. Battery life will suffer..
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
And what's the difference between intelliactive and interactive? :)
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
The biggest differences, I think, is that Intelliactive is more a naturally, balanced edition of the Interactive governor that is optimized to fully utilize the intelligent hotplug policy of the Intelliplug driver. Not sure really.
[Xperia Z1 General] BaCKo85:
Destroyedbeauty hello . I have one question . I am with your settings but why can`t turn on power suspend?I am with fauxclock and the programm don`t give me to turn on this option :) Sorry for my bad english
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Set the PowerSuspend profile to Userspace, enable the PowerSuspend driver then set your choice of profile - Autosleep, Hybrid or LCD Panel. Done and fixed!
[Xperia Z1 General] marcelorider:
Hello [MENTION=4598683]Destroyedbeauty[/MENTION] your settings don't work really well for me, my phone is extremely laggy :/

Overall :/

Stock rom with trinity kernel

What would you recommend??

Also your screen configuration for me is a bit bluish is that normal? :)
[Xperia Z1 General] mele80:
Hi,

Same here. Usually phone is quite responsive, but sometimes phone gets really unresponsive with these settings. Don't really know what settings could be changed.
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
About screen try this...

Color/Gamma: 255 - 235 - 250

White Balance: 0 - 25 - 25

About lag with this settings...

I think it's fault of the tweaks to ondemand governor...maybe we should try to tweak them togheter and see what is the best

Found some useful information here, look at second post and you will find ondemand tweaks (for example echo "95" /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold, you have to find on faux app, under CPU governor, the voice "up_threshold")

I think another thing to take into consideration, as well as the different rom used in our phone, is the use made ​​of it, or how much installed app we have...also not everyone may go well the same configuration
[Xperia Z1 General] marcelorider:
Tried your settings for the color, they are pretty good :)
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
I don't get how people can get instant lag issues.. The Intelliplug touch boost thing should compensate for the aggressive governor settings after all..

Hm..

+1
[Xperia Z1 General] mele80:
Hi,

Could the problem exists because how SuperSU gives FauxClock permission to root Access?

Sometimes after, lets say, few minutes after using browser/games SuperSU grants permission to FauxClock to use Root access
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
No idea
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
Now it seems better then before (some lag sometimes but not so noticeable).

Made a clean install, set up faux app and flashed fly-on mod and Z3 dalvik and bionic...maybe before I had some scripts or mod that was causing lags

Inviato dal mio C6903 con Tapatalk
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Seems like you did install a ROM that was optimized toward extended performance, and thus.. Less lag issues. (y)
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
Don't think so bro I'm on your same config (rom + kernel)...before and after using your settings

Inviato dal mio C6903 con Tapatalk
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Yeah, but the Trinity ROM got three different configs to choice in Aroma - battery, balanced or performance - so this will do a big difference. Also, I did clean up the ROM on hell a lot of apps after it had settled down, for faster and more efficent booting times and less application booting up..
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
On aroma always selected battery option...about debloat, yes hope this option will be fixed on next version (doesn't work on aroma) because there are a lot of things that could be removed...I used some list here, for now 257 apps installed lol
[Xperia Z1 General] mele80:
On cpu governor tab is sampling_rate_min. What is that? If I set it to 75000 faux will always change it back to 10000
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
This one is controlled thru PowerHAL function. Is non-editable..
[Xperia Z1 General] BlackSoulxxx:
No you will have to buy it.....
[Xperia Z1 General] mele80:
Okay, then I have to check your settings again and see if I made some other mistakes
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
I try to set 2400mhz on faux app and apply it on boot, but often it turn to 2200 at reboot. Anyone know why?
[Xperia Z1 General] Wolfbreak:
Try to activate Battery Throttle CPU Frequency and set it one Frequency higher then your max Frequency its located under Battery Controls in Faux App. If your max Frequency is 2496000 then set Battery Throttle Frequency to the 2572800 for example. Also be sure you check activate on boot always.
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Instead of complaning - set that sampling_down_factor to 2 and see if it is fixed.
[Xperia Z1 General] 3r1k:
I have to agree. I just tried, changing the sampling_down_factor and it did not help.
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Then I don't know what the cause is actually. My phone is rock smooth and battery friendly as hell on this config that I've posted.
[Xperia Z1 General] mele80:
Installed today RomAur with TrinityKernel from scratch. Using destroyedbeauty's Faux config. So far phone speed has been good and no lag at all.

Probably goingto try again with Trinity rom when new version is online.
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:

[Xperia Z1 General] bibica:
Hmm, try setting of Destroyedbeauty with Kernel X-Honami v4.

It best
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]

For those that seems to have lag issues, do this..

1) Set the sys.somc.touch_perf_kick value in the build.prop file to 0

2) Change to MP-Decision Hotplug driver in FauxClock

3) Apply Ondemand governor settings again - those are reverted when changning between hotplug drivers.

4) Change Thermal Driver from Intellithermal to stock Thermald.

5) Reboot!
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
Another thing I noticed with the last configuration is that overheating on my phone is gone :good:
[Xperia Z1 General] marcelorider:
Mine still isn't good :(

Maybe I need to flash another rom than the stock one!
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
I guess...or try using some script from Android Software and Hacking (I racccomend Fly-On mod, if you install terminal emulator from play store, you will able to uninstall the mod if you want) and see if the phone goes better with latest pimp my z1/faux settings
[Xperia Z1 General] marcelorider:
I might give it a try :)
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
That is a good thing, dude. Nice to see that it is not only I that have experienced improved heat reduction on my config. Which one are you using btw?

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]

I've bought myself a Samsung Galaxy S5 and will soon maintain a similar thread at the general section there, with CPU / governor configs. Don't worry - I am still using my holy Z1 and will continue do so! :)
[Xperia Z1 General] [Fenix]:
Config on post 74 :)

Inviato dal mio C6903 con Tapatalk
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
That config is damn effective. Even if the governor settings are aggressive - the touch boost thing is giving the extra boost at the top :)
[Xperia Z1 General] Jounsa:
Hey. Wish I could say the same. Unfortunately, I get heavy lag (in games and sometimes on home screen and other non-gaming apps once thermal manager kicks in) once Faux Clock kicks in and sometimes my games FC.

I saw on Haxxor's Kernel thread that the Governor could be set to msm_adreno-tz and it would give Lag Free Gaming. I have my FauxClock settings currently configured to what you listed in Post #74, but would like to know what items to change for msm_adreno-tz please?

My battery life has been good, but I don't want to sacrifice that much performance for just ~15 hours of battery (with somewhat heavy use).

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Using latest TrinityVengeance ROM and kernel.
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
Try with changning to msm_adreno-tz and report back if the lag issues are fixed..
[Xperia Z1 General] Jounsa:
Yes. That fixed my lag issues. Should I change any other settings to accommodate this change?
[Xperia Z1 General] Destroyedbeauty:
No.

Is it okay to have pimp my z1 and fauxclock both installed and set to boot?
