To install the kernel, wipe caché/dalvik, before o after? Thanks!

I have the g925i and am a tester for both Edgar and g.lewarne and on the prerelease version of the next iteration of his xtrestolite deodexed mod edition and unikernel and my device is on charge over night every night and no issues. Heats up under heavy load such as high graphics games but that's it. Check to make sure something is not staying alive when charging maybe

Don't clear the cache unless you have to (if you experience a problem). I have been flashing kernels for years and years and years, and have cleared the cache for that precisely once - with this phone, this morning, and only after I had a bug manifest.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gun@id:
Just reverted to 4001 and still think this one is the best.

less smooth but fastest
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] whittikins:
I've had 2 instances of the phone being unresponsive (screen off and won't turn on) since flashing v5-0001. However, mine was not charging either of these times. I had just set the phone down and tried to use it 15-20m later. It seemed like a sleep of death that I've experienced with past devices/kernels.

A 2nd issue is that streaming Google Play Music and using Navigation simultaneously has been resulting in one of the apps closing in the background after several minutes. I never experienced this with stock ROM, XtreStoLite ROM, or previous versions of UniKernel and UniBase. It definitely seems like something in v5-0001 isn't working properly for some users.

I'm currently using a G925T with XtreStoLite (deodexed) v2.1. I cleared cache/dalvik before and after flashing v5-0001. Thanks for the work you're putting into this kernel. If we can provide additional useful information, just let me know how.

The only time I noticed a general slowdown and a big battery drain is when updating apps. But after a while it goes away, or with a reboot.

It is faster because 4 cores are running at 800mhz instead of 400
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ghbuur:
i thought 4 cores have min 400 and 4 min 800. when i check they all go offline except of one which stays at min 400 ;) I'm back to 40001 too again coz i got annoying lags in 50001.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] maze00:
Correct ! But in 4.0001 the first 4 are als on 800 MHz. (On my phone)

Thats why it is faster.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ghbuur:
weird coz on mine not. I'm checking with 3c cpu manager and all seems normal. anyway better that fast and solid with little less battery, instead of lags ? we'll see what his next update will bring.

by the way thanks to the great creator for your hard work! wished i had time to do myself too..
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] maze00:
I use system tuner and with 4.0001 all the cores are 800mhz.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ghbuur:
i just tried perfmon from chainfire and it confirms, 4 cores at 400 and 4 at 800. so maybe it's your app or just your phone? ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] maze00:
Are you using 4.001 ? When i use Cpu spy only 800 to 1500 mhz are visible.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
HOLY CRAP PEOPLE CANT YOU READ STOP DISCUSSING OR ASKING FOR v4. NOT GONNA HAPPEN

I look back at the god-knows how many pages of my thread and its just people asking for v4, comparing v4 to v5, ar saying v5 is better blah blah blah. QUIT IT. I release what i release. v4 is gone and will never come back. If you have nothing constructive to say, or a valid, detailed bug report dont post. I dont want to see endless comparisons or discussions of v4 vs v5 because thats all im seeing. It buries the actually useful posts by considerate members and my dyslexia cant cope with that.

Anyway, v5-0002 release build compiling :good:

I used to be really chilled on XDA several years ago. things seem to have gone downhill. People dont even read my OP fully - i STILL get daily PMs about call audio on T, i STILL get PMs "will this support my 925F", its inane and im rapidly losing the will to keep posting here.

I genuinely value honest feedback, but hundreds of meaningless single line posts by people who obviously want to be spoon fed every little bit of information, or are simply incapable of comprehending the most simple things is getting tiresome very rapidly.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flamehell:
I understand that mate....and i hope that everyone will do the same...[emoji6] Can i ask you one thing?Are you on stock rom or another one?tnx a lot...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Fightoffyoredeamons:
Don't let the trolls scare you away, there are a bunch of us that really appreciate your amazing work. I know I always check this thread to see if anything new is posted.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
Totally understand you mate, things in XDA are not what they used to be a few years back. I am using your kernel only the last week (only two weeks since I got this device) and it's getting better in every release.

Keep your awesome work going. :good:
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] pnr2020:
Don't let the idiots on here piss you off we all know you do great work and we really appreciate it. But your right people need to start reading things instead of complaining all the time

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] lgsshedden:
hope you find a way to distance yourself from the detritus as your work is deeply appreciated by many

the S6 has a mixed group of users: some experienced XDA types who've moved from the S1 up through to the S6 and know (more or less) what to do but are stymied by Samsung's model specific changes; and then a bunch of newcomers drawn in my the great phone but wholly inexperienced and lacking XDA etiquette.

Perhaps a few of the more experienced and knowledgeable can assist by replying to the vexatious posts so as to free you to do what you do best -- keep optimizing the best kernel out there for our phone.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] jack allen:

I'm no computer expert or dev but

Have a good i dea of what's going on

I had to find out everything for myself, it took a lot of trial and error and some actual meaningful questions

It's not hard people if your going to jump intl to this and start trying to play with your phone, in stead of asking about every little thing, try it out yourself and see, it's the only way you will get any idea of what you are doing you need to learn not just ask about every single little thing and in the chance that something goes wrong that you don't no what to do than come on here and ask for help,, at least you had a go and can learn from your mistake, there's a lot of people on here willing to help but all these pointless questions being asked 100 times over is going to get people angry as seen above

READ READ READ

and take the leap and try some things for yourself.5if you can't do that than what are you doing on here? [MENTION=1768899]g.lewarne[/MENTION] your doing great work don't let this put you off, you the man

I don't know everything but will definately help out where I can
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] sarnex:
Call audio works great with engineering bootloader on 920T with v5 0002. Thanks alot.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Alpine-:
Please block out the negative and continue your great work! Any forum this large and popular will inevitably have this issue. There are just so many people viewing the threads and many noobs come along with that. It's frustrating, but its the nature of the beast.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
OK guys v5-0002 is released

It is a significant reworking, including a complete overhaul of All aspects of device unification. Full changelog in the OP. Users who are still running the engineering bootloaders now have full support including in call audio on T/W8 *with* the flashable files patch, the same as everyone else.

First boot will take a few seconds longer than usual while the kernel flashes the new touchscreen firmware to the panel hardware.

I have also confirmed that the "magic de-lag" switch i discovered and initially introduced with v4 makes any and all interactive governor changes / tweaks utterly ineffective, so battery life is what it is im afraid. That is the cost of a lag free kernel in this scenario. There is nothing we can do to change it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] dakalter:
Awesome! I'll take less lag for still better than stock battery life.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cchant:
I've had the S6 for about a week before I finally rooted it yesterday. I put xtrestolite deomod 2.1 and unikernel v3 on it.

To be honest I wasn't overly impressed but thought maybe it needed to "settle". Today I still wasn't feeling it and was beginning to regret even rooting it due to the S Pay news that came out today.

I saw 0005v1 and flashed it and things were a little better but I still had doubts but I saw where v2 is coming out and decided to wait and see how it did.

I just flashed it and I can already tell a big difference. The device just feels much smoother now. Thanks a lot devs!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gdmlaz:
- Added variant detection to Thermister (temp sensor) values in universal device tree

Just flashed v5- 2 on my 925t everything seems to be smooth I did see on the chagelog something about temperatures Don't know if this is what was supposed to fix the 925t reading higher temperatures than what is running ..... is still reading the wrong temperatures on the 925t........ other than that seems to be running really smooth so far
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] steve97ta:
So far so good on my TMO 925T S6E had to flash the call audio fix after and all is well. Thanks for your work!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gdmlaz:
mines worked fine without the in call audio fix...... are your temperatures also reading high in the 100s while idle ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] usmanqadeer:
S6_UniKernel_v5-0002-ODIN failing during flashing via odin
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] steve97ta:
Weird but it is working now. I really don't pay attention to temps and all that stuff but here is the reading while on the charger for the past 15 minutes
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gdmlaz:
yea that's the wrong temperature for us....... phone usually idles in the 80's goes up to 100 when is extremely hot
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] steve97ta:
Well it's not hot to the touch and running great so not gonna complain.

I usually flash the kernel then charge it fully to get a good battery cycle in
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
Hmm guess that's still wonky then. It isn't actually hotter its just a misreading. I'll take another look
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gdmlaz:
nah the phone is running at a normal temperature the sensors are just reading wrong that is all...... kernel runs great phone operates at normal temperatures

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] PaulG1488:
So glad to be back to lag free on v5 - 2
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] whittikins:
What turned out to be the magic delag switch? Was it something Samsung set incorrectly or a setting that other devices could benefit from?

Definitely interested because it helps SO much!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
Id rather not say publically here, as there are many kangers out there who would happily rip it off without due credit. It IS on my repo commits for those who can figure it out. Suffice it to say its not *strictly* a kernel tweak, rather it does something mysterious to do with touchwiz, which has yet to be determined. I discovered it entirely by chance while dorking around with stuff.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] jah2110:
[MENTION=1768899]g.lewarne[/MENTION] nice work I love your kernel mate :) I want to now what app you use to calibrate the battery. Thanks for share.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
i do not use an app. All these battery recalibration apps are utterly useless for our devices as all they are doing is deleting the charge history, according to Mythos234 (and google!) whom is developing something that directly references the battery level (top secret!), which achieves nothing. I wont disclose my method, that for users to research and decide if they want to do it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
LOL @ ME

I think ive fixed Edge battery temperature reporting guys. Turns out i variant detected every single occurance of the different battery temp tables, EXCEPT for the one where measurement actually took place......:silly:

you can test the fix in this kernel >>> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347780471

(otherwise identical to v5-0002)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Indeed, those apps which delete the batterystats.bin are not going to help with calibrating the battery. Don't believe me? Believe a Google Engineer:

https://plus.google.com/105051985738280261832/posts/FV3LVtdVxPT

So, if those apps only delete this file, it has no impact on your batterylevel in the statusbar.

Top-Secret man signing off ;)

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] twinh3ad:
I'm on 920F. Do you recommend to use the one in the first post or this one? As it's not an Edge
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
if you dont have an Edge phone it is absolutely identical to the official one :good:
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] lch920619x:
I second that under volting will be great.

Anandtech actually had a test showing that undervolting saves like 10% power from the soc.

And my onw experience shows it does make the phone cooler.

Other than that, very nice kernel.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Harregukalerik:
Ever tried tripndroid io scheduler? It worked good on s5.......
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] guaneet:
the dev and his team of testers have tested undervolting on this device and it shows little to no marginal improvement over battery from what he has said. and this kernel is meant to be a just flash and forget kernel. no need to tweak anything,
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] jah2110:
Well, can you explain to my how I can calibrate the battery please?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] guyd:
I'm a little confused. Are the in call audio patches flashed during the kernel install, or is a separate file needed? I don't see one in the OP, so I thought I'd ask.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
seperate file is needed, its available in the Tmobile section of the forums :good:
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] guaneet:
Flashing kernel during flashed
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
nope, not any more :D i was going to do it, but then decided against it
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mrbmg:
Ha. I've never had a lag issue on any of the builds. Looked at my temp just now and it's at 114°F

Yeah definitely off. Phone isn't even mildly warm to the touch. The last release 5.0.1 never lagged on me but after a call my phone was so hot I couldn't put it to my face.

Keep up the great work G!!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
can you checkout the battery temps that are reported on the "fix" build i posted up there ^^ i posted awhile ago
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mrbmg:
Battery is 88° but thermal 113.6°
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] RFrancis:
I know right, I'm running like -80 mv in a different kernel... It's his development work and he can do as he sees fit :/
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Alpine-:
I favor a kernel that produces better battery life over a kernel that is marginally snappier, something that has minimal impact on actual day to day usage. Am I the minority here? I used to love when devs would do separate versions of a kernel, one for performance one for maximum battery.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cchant:
0005v2 made my device usable. I was having bad lag throughout the ui especially on the keyboard. Changing apps and keyboards didn't help a bit.

Since I flashed v2 all the issues I had with lag disappeared. The keyboard keeps up. The UI doesn't stutter. It feels like the flagship it was meant to be. If that means losing what probably amounts to +-30 minutes of screen time and a few hours of total battery life, then fine by me. I'm generally surrounded by chargers so it's worth it to me
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bighleo114312:
Thats because it flashes through twrp not odin.

Enviado desde mi SM-G920T mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
i believe its a ROM thing. there are no diffs between, say, AOCV and AOE3 kernel sources that would account for such a change. It *might* be in the device tree but i cant say ive seen anything that would modify that behaviour.

Its not really an issue anyway, when its charging and not doing anything it will be operating at minimal power anyway. I personally dont see a problem with this behaviour.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] LNJ:
It's not a problem at all. Just wondering what changed. I've had phones that slept like a baby while charging and ones that stayed awake while charging but never one that was asleep and now all of a sudden has insomnia :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] criszz:
thank you so much
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] -Mr. X-:
Mike has been deep sleeping on wireless and wired charger. i just checked cpu spy again as well. maybe something is wake locking you. I wont deep sleep charging off a pc as the storage is mounted.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] LNJ:
Not sure. Don't see anything that's different. It first started with the KT and StockMod unified kernel. Returning to OE1 kernel fixed it. Unified kernel with audio fix integrated causes it again. I did a full wipe and flashed StockMod 1.5 and Wanam Lite 1.3 and same deal.

Did you flash a new bootloader, or modem by any chance?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] -Mr. X-:
Ive upgraded my modem to the AOE1 W8 release. (wont work for tmobile, the bootloader is expecting a T modem and just refuses to start the ril, i know this because i tried a t modem on my W8. lol)

Try this. install flashfire or flashify and flash twrp overtop of its self some users say this fixes deep sleep for some stupid reason.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] LNJ:
Isn't that fix for no deep sleep period? I have deep sleep when unplugged. Just stopped sleeping when charging.

I'll try it anyway!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] -Mr. X-:
I'm grasping at straws here because im on the same kernel you are and im deepsleeping on charger lol
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] The Kid Cassidy:
Ok, I'm on T-mobile s6...any issues with your kernel currently with T925? also which one to download? you have the unified then scroll down a bit and 2 other zips that can be downloaded? I would like to try out the International Xestrorom but last time had no call audio......but man that ROM was stupid fast! wanna give it another go!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
this kernel does not support any Edge variant (925) at all. It is very clearly stated in the OP. Do not flash it on Edge. It will not work
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
im gonna guess its a ROM or app thing....
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] The Kid Cassidy:
Damn, I'm sorry completely missed that. Thanks
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] LNJ:
Yeah but wake lock detector isn't pointing to any app in particular other than the normal Google Apps.

I'm on your rom btw.

I'll keep experimenting. [emoji12]
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
i would doubt its a wakelock. It could be something in the newer AOE3 + rom firmware blobs, a kernel device tree change (dont ask, samsung f***** us over real good on that) ...superman...who knows. If you ever do find it will be interesting to know but yeah, im not concerned about it :)

oooh. i know what it might be....

Samsung made significant changes to the charger and battery driver in AOE3 source. It could be keeping the phone awake to avoid the bug that early Edge users had where the rapid charger was frying out their batteries and accelerometer.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] LNJ:
Lol so why is it picking on me only and not anyone else? USB charging keeps it awake as well [emoji12]

Mine is most likely one of the first batches. Manufactured on 3/25.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Docmjldds:
HMM, Says it flashed successfully, but in help about devices still shows KT kernel on my S6 TMobile Edge variant. I have tried wipeing caches and installing kernel as well as installing, then wiping caches. Am I the only one that has this on TMobile variant.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g.lewarne:
some big news folks

The next evolution is now completed, verified working and stable.

Working closely with Ktoonsez, we have achieved 100% unification. One kernel. S6 and S6 edge. One binary. ALL VARIANTS (Except P). Everything working.

This is huge. This is big. This opens the doors for all sorts of interesting rom development by the excellent rom devs we have amongst us.

Keep watch out for next release :)
