It's all about real life performance. Benchmark sucks and are synthetic things.

Put your phone in the freezer and you will get higher score.

Performance profile is good for me. Never benched mine
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartpr1v4t3:
And whats the problem about that?

My phone has to run smooth and battery friendly. When i play a game it shouldnt lagg.

This are things that i cant figure out with a benchmark app.

These bench apps display useless scores which helps nobody in the daily use of the phone.

Also every run depends on many circumstances. (running apps and services, room temperatur, etc...)

Run the bench on an fresh rom and do the same after 1 day/week/month, you will get complete different result.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merlin21:
I completely agree. I don't use antutu any more. I have a very responsive phone with default profile and stock oom. I used antutu but found, that many people do tricks with their roms to show other people Highscores. My phone is extremely fast responding in every situation. I know and feel it.

A better benchmark was written here - pcmark - this is a bench without random results. Use that if you need to compare with friends.

2. Can you merge some more from the latest Linux 4.4 kernel?

Does your rom support f2fs? I had the same problem then realized cloudyfa's rom does not support it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duki994:
Just to share one small tuning :)

If you need more responsivness for multitasking without sacrificing battery much do this:

Prerequisites:

Any app that can change governor parameters. If you know shell scripting, you can write one for this. Or do via terminal.

1. Set in Dorimanx app performance mode for governor (1st tab)

2. Change these ondemand parameters:

- sync_freq 960000

- optimal_freq 960000

- don't change optimal_max_freq!

3. Disable touchboost

Enjoy lower heat and better responsiveness :)

I don't know how this would go in benchmark, but ondemand, in low workloads, is keeping most of freqs below 1ghz.

Only spikes up to optimal_max_freq when workload is higher. It chooses freq in range between optimal_freq and optimal_max_freq for given workload. In this case it's between 960MHz and 1.728GHz

If cpu demand is more, then it goes to max.

well no, but i edited the rom to support f2fs otherwise it wouldnt boot. and its on f2fs only problem is data not staying f2fs.. theres a video on how to on genral with somboons f2fs vs ext4 benchmark thread.

UPDATE

i got it working. i did the following.

install normal as ext4. reboot to system. copied dorimanx kernel and reboot into recovery twrp

install kernel. reboot into system. then reboot into recovery twrp.

make a nandroid of all a back up. then copy back up to pc.

convert system/data and cache to f2fs on recovery in advance wipe. changed file system to f2fs.

reboot into recovery from recovery

in pc open nandroid back up and change the system.ext4.win to system.f2fs.win. do the same for md5 files of data/system and cache changed them from ext4 to f2fs.

copy the edited f2fs back up to phome and doa restore. and voila.. all data/system and cache on f2fs.

it is faster then ext4.

[MENTION=2376110]dorimanx[/MENTION] 8.4 kernel works so good, i can feel the speed of it, cause i tried it on regular ext4 for a while.. like always no bugs , am one of the lucky ones . hehe knock on wood. thanks

Its open source, so any one can remod it, give thanks and call it his.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 60nine:
it would be great if you help Kernel Adiutor developer add more features for your kernel... or remod the app yourself...

i've been using that app on my older device(s) since it was released and it's been constantly developing but until yesterday - i've never installed it on LG G2 so i had no idea it has more features depending on kernel...

about the CPU frequency - i've noticed on my old LG Optimus 2x that the frequency won't go higher than stock 1000 MHz (max is 1500 Mhz) while some other apps have no problem with raising frequency...

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitardo:
You should never unroot your device, specially because "native" applications that the kernel installed will need it.

What you can do is manage the applications that can have root access in SuperSU app, and never give root permissions to another app.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitardo:
I honestly did not understand your objective:

Is it to give permission for some time while they start for the first time (1) or is it to just do not give them root access (2)?

With SuperSU app you can give the app:

(1) Permission for root access for a specific time, like 15 seconds, then ask again.

(2) You can block apps from getting root access.

Does this match your expectations?

I even can use performance profile again without reboots - must say after last logs (and when my phone shows strange behaviour) i retored a nand backup and the reboots from 8.3/4 are gone.

But still i have the feeling like a few others mentioned that 8.2 with default profile was as fast as 8.5 with performance - could it be a illusion? Or something changed in default settings with 8.3?

Anyway thanks for that masterpiece!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitardo:
I agree with you.

Version 8.2 was slightly better than the later versions in Default profile.

I feel this specially in transitions of home screens or applications already open.

But, I have to say that 8.5 is a little better in opening apps and installing them.

To "solve" this, I am testing the following:

- Two cores always online (I am on this step);

- Boost to 1,7GHz;

- Boost to three cores.

I would advise you to flash the 8.5 first, as it is stable to the majority of people.

8.6 is unknown territory to everyone, except for DorimanX.

Regarding the app, you have two apps:

- DorimanX app: an application to tweak the kernel that is installed with the kernel;

- DorimanX OTA (free or paid): an application you can download from the Play Store and you use to flash the kernel directly within the app.

So to add what you ask is not something that i can do.

It's also will need ROM changes to interact with play/pause/next

you can use some apps that tweak hardware volume to have long press, then it's can be set to skip track.

Or use headphones with small controller for tracks<> and pause. it's already build in to code and ROM.
