OK guys...here it is....

Oh BTW cpu governor settings stick for me.

WARNING: Don't flash this unless ur crazy, don't care about battery life, or just want ridiculous performance.

This is only because some people wanted to try this. It is not suitable for normal use.

With Kernel Adiutor

A57 interactive settings revert back in maximum 5 minutes.

A53 interactive settings work as they should.

But

Still does not use A57 cluster as main CPU cores.

Checking with perfmon performance monitor by Chainfire and you can still feel the lag.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
O_O I Reduced the level it takes to go up to big cores from like 500 to 150...I guess I'll try setting it at 0....lol also for both big and little cores interactive I set IO_Is_Busy to 1 and it hasn't reverted for me. Maybe it's just certain settings. I'll look at the permissions and make sure they are correct
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cazrack:
There is a huge problem with A57 cluster gov interactive settings not sticking,

Personally for me, when A57 cluster kick in it need to kick in at maximum speed because that is the entire point of it, basically it needs to be substantially faster than the A53 cluster since it is supposed provide you with a fluid gui experience or load a heavy Web page as fast as possible. It can't be 20% faster that will simply not be enough. When you want turbo mode you want the driver to floor it :)

Thanks for giving this you're best, awesome!

Using XtreStoLite 2. 1 Rom deodexd

Xileforce what Rom do you use?

EDIT 2:

On big cores A57, try to change Interactive gov with hispeed freq 2100 MHz, go hispeed load 20 to if they stick, very important that they do, for me they revert.

EDIT 3:

I find it strange how Facebook messenger always use the big A57 cluster cores and at 2100 MHz scrolling is very smooth and it doesn't change to the A53 slow cluster, but all Web browsers usually settle for A53 cluster at max frequency 1500 MHz which results in a laggy and frame dropping user interface during scrolling and zooming

I want to be a tester, my hangouts email is therkduan@gmail.com
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I'm using xtro 2.1 odexed. I can reduce the big core threshold even more. It's already like 5x lower than it was O_O. I'll check perms for the interactive stuff and see if there's something weird there. I can also preset the interactive settings to something crazy that will use higher speeds. I'm not sure why browsers don't properly load the cpu up. As a test are the browsers laggy when running performance governor?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cazrack:
The problem when using performance governor on the A57 cluster is that the browsers often only use the A53 cluster which means that most CPU core utilization only happen on A53 cluster.

That means that the A57 cluster at 2100 MHz remains unused and idle most of the time and only draw power watt out of the phone.

Therefore when discussing a performance kernel it important that once the A57 cluster get requested to carry out work you want it to scale from bottom speed MHz to maximum speed MHz immediately in order to give you maximum speed but than later clock down to conserve power.

Normally interactive gov isn't configured like that, it is usually configured to speed up in steps depending on time and CPU utilization which would be more (okey) for a normal non performance crazy use in a phone with only 1 CPU cluster for example Nexus 5 or Nexus 6. Since S6 have a very a power efficient A53 cluster for basic things you want the A57 cluster to give maximum instant speed when you need it.

Since gov interactive settings isn't sticking on A57 you need to set before compile, try to change Interactive gov with hispeed freq 2100 MHz and go hispeed load 20.

That will take care of the once A57 is needed it will have the speed instantly which it to provide a smooth gui user experience.

However lower the HMP thresholds for A57 to kick in even more so the A57 cluster get more requests to be used.

Time to sleep and check thread after that if I can try to clarify/help more with any questions.

Thanks for listening!

Edit: with perfmon from Chainfire you can have a floating CPU core monitor widget that lies on top of all applications to show you every CPU core MHz speed but more importantly every CPU core % utilization, there are of course other tools for this as well.

Can't do it off my phone. Tried to upload to mega but still don't work. Blah. But the phone completely froze because I was running ogyoutube with screen off. But this is the first time it ever happened and I been running all your test builds. So it could be ogyoutube that caused it. When I mention multitasking those were just freeze to lockscreen and I had to unlock my phone again.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Well. Here is a new test build :) nearly full featured. Have some more stuff committed. One patchset related to power efficiency that was added when crashes started as well as a few others have been reverted. These were also in the previous low feature build so ik they are in The small group causing issues. Only feature not in ATM is dt2w. Optimizations,etc in as well.

I cant wait and have installed before you answered. In moment it works. I give it a try in moment and test some days.

In other kernels i see extra files for example for w8 model. Why you didnt have in your kernel? All models work with same file without extra files?

T91 is good, no issues so far. :D

Got 75071 in antutu on T91. Haven't any freezes or crashes after using it a while day.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] -=RaZoR=-:
how? how did you do it? what settings are you using? my antutu gives a very low result but I think this is due to the fact that I was previously on the arter97 kernel. I will try again tomorrow to do the test on clean stock
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] KameMan:
Antutu is a piece of crap when it comes to 3d benchmarking. I mean its got a 60 Fps limit for the 3d test. What kind of benchmark has an fps limit...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Way too many variables lol. Could be anything. Doubt its kernel
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mkr2511:
vindicator kernel is one of the best kernel i used so far. appreciate ur hardwork dev. hope stable release comes soon.

btw antutu scores are better for me (previously tested on arter)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Glad to hear that. Anyone have any lockscreen crashes on the latest?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] -=RaZoR=-:

No kernel should wipe data when installing. U should be fine to flash right over it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Getting pretty close to calling this one stable. What's our status today? Any lockscreen crashes?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Had only one crash, but it wasn't lockscreen crash.

Maybe just rom, or overload.

Anyway, expect that little crash everything is just perfect, great performance.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] reddevil82:
Is last kernel already with all the latest optimization on it or is still the beta for recover the problems?

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
It has all features except dt2w atm. It's also missing a few patches for power efficiency which will be added in later. Aside from that it's got almost everything, including optimizations.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
BTW how many people want dt2w at the cost of less battery life and wasted cpu cycles even if its not enabled. I can't decide whether or not to re add it ATM. But I will if people want it. And before you ask, I'm not sure what kind of reduction in efficiency we are looking at, but it was enough for arter to completely remove it from his kernel.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ghbuur:
is that kernel working with arters back to n0t3 rom?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] loris100:
does this kernel oc the gpu? and my phone crashes when benchin at 2500mhz, i managed to do just 1 run with antutu...how do i up the voltage to make it stable at 2500mhz?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] SHiFT!:
Try synapse
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Not atm

Most phones won't be able to handle 2500mhz. Yes the gpu is overclocked. I'll probably add a control for it to synapse later. Also for whatever reason it won't let you raise the voltage beyond a certain point despite me raising the limit in the code. I'm not fully sure why that is ATM.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Fruktsallad:
I for one would love for this great kernel NOT to add dt2w. Battery is already very sparse on our device, and wasting cycles for a function I personally never would of course be pointless for me. Hence, if the majority decides it should be added, I'll have switch to a different kernel.

Or, I could just stay on T91 forever. :P It's been rock stable for me and really snappy as well. No crashes. Rather battery hungry so far, but I'm hoping that'll change once it settles in.

Thanks for your hard work, Xileforce!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] steve97ta:
I'd agree I never use that feature. Been running the latest worth no problems on WETA rom for about 7hrs now. Battery hungry yes but doesn't skip a beat in quickness
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
I don't use it either, so I'm also against.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] loris100:
[MENTION=4517211]Xileforce[/MENTION] is it safe to leave the max frequency at 2500 on a57 cores? i mean its not stable for me on benches but if used in short burst as in real life usage is working good till now...i wonder if the added voltage would degrade the cpu?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
In terms of the higher voltage degrading your cpu, I doubt it would be noticeable. Only after years of wearing it down would it begin to be noticeable. Likely after you have already gotten a new device. Basically I doubt anyone would have any problems even running at that frequency for many years. As for stability, It may work okay in bursts but its still possible you may randomly come upon freezes/crashes due to it being unstable. It's up to you if you want to put up with that.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Okay then it sounds like no dt2w :). I also do not use so no complaint here.

Next build I'll re add some efficiency patchsets I used prior to the one that caused issues. I'll also be adding other stuff and tweaking more now that it seems the issue is resolved. Will try to get battery life fixed in the next builds.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enebro77:

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Erik1805:
With which rom?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enebro77:
WETA. Anyway, the point is not the ROM. The point is disabling services .... ;)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Nice that's pretty good. For those getting bad battery life. Are you running power efficient work queues?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] crazililazn:
Yep, I have all the battery-saving settings enabled in VControl. The battery does seem to drain a bit fast tho. You said that you haven't added the efficiency patch sets, so maybe that is why?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Try turning off power efficient work queues. Ive actually noticed higher drain using that option. And yes it is still missing some efficiency patches.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] crazililazn:
Alright, I'll give it a shot. So you would recommend all power saving settings enabled, except for power efficient work queues, to get the best battery life?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Yes, at least in my testing so far.

Hi Xile can u please help me to fix my smg920i s6 which is stuck on bootloop. I will give u a generous Donation.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
A donation really isn't necessary. First of all I need a few details. To start make sure you are using twrp not philz. And second of all I need to know if you are coming from arter kernel. If you are you need to reflash your rom without wiping data. This will keep all of your stuff but give you stock gpu drivers. Then reflash my kernel
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DeantheBean:
Ok so this is what i have done so far......

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920i.

My phone was working perfectly until i decided to root it which caused all sorts of issues.

I am currently using firmware G920IOPS3DOJ6_OPS combined with TWRP v2.8.7.1.

I can get into recovery but that is as far as my phone will go.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I'm a bit confused. Did your phone work rooted before flashing my kernel?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DeantheBean:
Bootloop.

Sorry i have not flashed your Kernal yet.

I'm just letting u know what i have tried so far.

How shall i flash your Kernal? Using TWRP? ODIN? I
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Twrp. Try flashing a rom like xtrestolite
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DeantheBean:
Samsung s6

Ok i will flash Twrp v2.8.7.1 then adb push xtrestolite and vindicator kernals. Should i flash xtrestolite then your kernal?

who can do testing in antutu benchmark version T91 and send the results here? first time without overclocking and voltages (stock)and the second time with max overclocking and max voltages.

thanks.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Hmmm I'm not sure then. I haven't heard of this before. Which root method did you use.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enebro77:
To tell you the truth I dont know and I cant see it now. I changed to googy as long as vindicator started to lag a bit after 2 days . (the memory usage went up to 75%)

All I can say is that I was using it under default values ....

Cheers

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 AM ----------

With everything by default in the first day I got 70400. Yesterdat it went down to 68k and started to lag a bit ....
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
Now that [MENTION=1155754]enebro77[/MENTION] mentioned that I have to say my memory usage is also very high. I clicked clean memory button in smart manager and after that I had usage of over 90%. In settings it says my system uses 2,1 GB, I'm on XtreStoLite, so that is not normal.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
Restarted my phone and everything's perfect now, though it was my first time since getting that phone that ran usage was so high
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:

Sorry for russian, to lazy to change to english
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Wow! That's great. What are your settings?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Everything is off, min/max 2304/2304 and 1600/1600. Screen resolution changed to 1920x1080.

CPU temp was about 10°C
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
My ram usage has always been that high regardless of kernel. System is not ram related. That's how much it takes up of flash storage. S6 usually runs around 100-300mbs ,often times less than 100, free of ram. To find the exact number, go to terminal emulator and type su then type cat proc/meminfo this will display all your memory info. One of them says how much is free. I can possibly tighten up the values more, though I've been running for around 3 days without a reboot and haven't noticed any issues.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
When I opened application manager in settings it said system is taking 2.1 gigs of ram, after reboot that changed. It's not how many it takes on nand, right? And on r3, r4 I had about 1 GB of free ram.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] KameMan:
Xile is there any chance you could recreate the T32 version of the kernel without the lockscreen issue?

Or maybe just take that version and remove what's causing the lockscreen crash, now that you know what's causing it

Pretty please
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] batuzai04123:
That 10°C though :)

That could really help boost up your score in benchmark :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Main part is he's only running at 1080p. That's about half the work for the gpu. Not exactly a fair comparison to normal benchmarks :P
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Actually I got 1500 more points in CPU float-point test than average. I ran second test right after record and got average points in float-point. It could be just a mistake or something like that.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
That makes sense. It likely throttled a bit more the second run.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Nope, both times it was lying on snow in forest :D

So it couldn't get throttled. Have you ever tried overclock A53 cluster to 1700 mhz? If yes, was it stable?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I have tried long ago but it wouldn't boot. I plan on revisiting new overclocking steps now that the lockscreen issue is resolved :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
OK guys. Today I've got two new ones for you to test. They have the exact same stuff except one has my touchboost modification and one doesn't. I want you guys to try them and lemme know which u prefer due to battery or performance. IMO the touchboost one is noticeably smoother in certain spots, such as the recents menu. Other changes include some misc patches, the power efficiency patchset, some cpu related improvements, and other misc things. I've also changed up the default settings. Now power efficient workqueues and power aware scheduling are off by default. Use vcontrol to enable if u desire. I also raised the target loads for interactive to 85 and 80 for the large and small cpus respectively. Samsung has them at like 75 stock which is very low. Lower means the cpus run at a higher speed more often. Keep in mind aosp runs it at 90. There's also memory tweaks.

FYI: T32 did not have touchboost mod.

Here's the two links for those interested:

Touchboost version:

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
TB version runs okay, but I noticed that min clocks are 1000 MHz (A57) and 1296 MHz (A53). Even when usage is 0-10%. In settings min clocks are smaller.

Also noticed that touchboost doesn't works, touch is not affecting clocks.

(Sry for my english)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
That's odd. My clocks are fine. That doesn't have anything to do with touchboost though. Keep in mind both versions have touchboost. I just modified it in the normal one to boost up to the big cores on touch. I believe it will boost the frequencies up to 900 on both clusters as well, but since you are already above that you aren't noticing it. Have you tried a reboot? Sometimes there's an app acting up that can cause this.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Whoops sorry, reinstalled busybox and rebooted, now it's okay. TB works fine.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] reddevil82:
