So, do you know exactly what caused the lockscreen crashes? Not that I would totally grasp it, but things like this interest me.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
In my opinion RC is fully stable with good performance, but I don't know what about battery draining, since I bought this amazing device because of it's performance and want take all of it.

Will test tomorrow battery draining if it will be helpful.

how do you lower the screen resolution from 1440 to 1080? there is some sort of program?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Resolution changer pro, I recommend DPI 480 at 1080p
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] dandroid13:
And what about T91? Is touchboost enabled or not?

Enviado do meu Galaxy S6
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Touchboost is enabled in t91 and most other recent builds since around t70ish I think.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Well in the build that fixed it I changed a couple things so it could be any of them, however, I believe it was a power efficiency patchset I used. I've since reverted it and applied a similar one that ik works. The difference is likely negligible.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Is anyone but me noticing a big difference in smoothness between the two builds?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] alex00006:
Hi guys

Can i install this kernel for G920I????The latest version of the kernel, which is it?

Please guide

Tnx
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Yes. Look back like one page or two for link to latest.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] KameMan:
The performance on the non touchboost version is great I think you've finally created a good successor to T32
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] reddevil82:
in termns of battery, what can be the difference between the two builds? 1 hour sot?

I'm on t79 now witch have the boost and i think is really cool but i cant go over 4,5 sot with a full charge...

kernel is improved from t79 also in the boosted version?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I doubt its an hour but I can't say for sure the difference.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I'm not quite sure what you are asking me.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] KameMan:
Had to go back to T32. The non touchboost release candidate hanged way too often for me. Prefer lockscreen crashes to hangups and restarts
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Did you try the normal one with touchboost? I need a last_kmsg from these crashes or I can't see what's causing them :( I am still yet to have any.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] dandroid13:
Hey [MENTION=4517211]Xileforce[/MENTION], I just did a clean install and noticed you removed auto-root from the latest test build. Do you plan to bring it back?

Enviado do meu Galaxy S6
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
It's because I'm currently testing a hybrid ramdisk based on arters. Previously was based on unikernel. I'll see if I can add it back in.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
Awesome kernel, R5-RC1 no touchboost on ambasadii ROM has great idle battery life overnight. Feeling very smooth too, will test it through the day for stability.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
Just had a soft reboot while in standby.

Here is last_kmsg

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Thank you very much! It appears what happened here was something triggered an emergency remount which then triggered a reboot. However what caused the emergency remount in the first place I am unsure of. It's possible it may be related to dynamic fsync as that functions during screen off. Maybe I will make a test with that removed. If you get another please link me!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
Thanks for the fast update. Since that reboot my device looks stable with streaming music, navigation, calls. Will let you know after a day testing.

tested two versions but the difference I noticed... which version is more performance needs to be? without Touchboost?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Touchboost version should be faster. However I tested the non touchboost version on a galaxy s6 edge, and it was buttery smooth in the recent menu. So maybe I need to reflash my rom, in which case the touchboost version is a waste of energy.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] KameMan:
I'm not sure but this freezing might be related to using the latest Weta Rom with your latest kernel builds.

Could someone confirm if they are using weta or not when getting crashes?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] dandroid13:
With stock rom the crashes are gone. Maybe it's your rom, I never had freezing.

I'm using the test kernels that was mentioned couple of posts back no crash so far full day use its so stable and smooth.. thank you
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I'm getting no crashes on xtrestolite. It would be nice to know which roms everyone is on who is getting crashes
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] imransyafi:
Im back on vindicator. Tried arter for a while now his kernel is makin trouble for me. And goodjob and finding out what the causes the lockscreen crash. Could you teach me how to use the andy log thing to help you when things happen ? Oh and why does my a53 clocks at 12xx on stock at first boot on rc1 touchboost. Had to change it myself to 1500 in synapse ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
Haven't had a freeze or reboots after almost 40h. Didn't use my device much just to check the reboots with screen off. Idle battery life is best I tried so far with any kernel.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Glad to hear that! I think I'm going to make the official version the non touchboost one, as it seems to be perfectly smooth for most users. I must have something weird going on with my phone. :(
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
I haven't tried the touchboost version as I'm more than happy with smoothness of the non touchboost.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] imransyafi:
Im using touch boost version and all is fine. Loving it so smooth.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] sixty-thirty:
can i have a link to the daily usable latest build please ? :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianton:
Check a few pages back.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enebro77:
6 hours SOT with the touhcboost version. Amazing. :)

Furthermore, have to say after a couple of days the memory usage goes up to 70%, but no lag at all ...

Cheers

EDITED: Forgot to say in Antutu the RAM speed its onlly around 4000, when the usual value its 4500 ... any clue of this ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Pedroc1999:
Currently using xtrestolite ROM, got a few questions.

Is this kernel STABLE? As in, will I be having reboots etc?

I heard about freezing, we can perform a battery pull on the 920, so how would one 'restart' the device if its unresponsive

Batterylife, right now im using UniKernel, should I e xpect better battery life from this one?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enebro77:
Just push "power+vol down+ home button" for a few seconds. You will go into 'odin' mode. Select cancel and when restarting push quickly "power+vol up + home button" to enter to recovery mode
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] demmo81:
The kernel is amazing but this whatsapp thing is making me crazy it's killing the battery
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Calnyx:
4.1 gave me lockscreen crashes, then I found the test builds from a few days ago. On the non touchboost one, everything seems good.

Can't enable DT2W, get an error saying the file or directory cannot be created

Also, whats 'Sound Control' and what does it do?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
dt2w is not in, probably it will not be, sound control I think is implemented, but there is no way of using it, so don't bother for now

---------- Post added at 23:54 ---------- Previous post was at 23:38 ----------

if cm comes out, this kernel will be able to run w/o any changes or would you need to do some modifications, Xile? It's been 3 years since I used aosp.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Nice!

No dt2w in that build. I removed it because it was shown to drain battery even when disabled

I'll likely only have to make a separate ramdisk for CM, however there could be small source changes as well. I'll just have to wait and see. Also sound control got removed due to causing in call audio issues.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
Amazing that people still these synthetic benchmarks have any correlation to real-world performance. Reminds me of the Quadrant-wanking that went on back in Galaxy S days. . .
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
The main use for benchmarks is comparing changes made to the same device imo. For instance if I do a tweak to IO speeds, I can see the effect by running a benchmark which is nice from a development standpoint.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
Oh, don't get me wrong - they're very useful for devs when baselining and system testing; I just don't see why end-users froth over them, especially when you can game the results by boosting max core speeds etc.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] jplayer01:
Because it's the quickest and easiest way to judge overall performance. It's easier to compare two numbers than it is to test several real-world games with different constraints (or that may not even allow you to test real gaming performance). As much as people deride benchmarks, they *do* say something about performance, even if it doesn't transfer 1:1 to in-game performance.

PS: It's pretty ****ing satisfying going from a 20k score with an HTC One X to a 69k score with a Galaxy S6 ... :D
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
Agree, all good points. To be clear, I'm not deriding benchmarks, just saying (as you are) that they're just one aspect, along with 'qualitative' measures like real-world usage, used to judge performance.

What bothers me are people who flash the latest version of Kernel X and then moan their Antutu score has changed with no understanding of what has been altered in the code, or any other external factors that affect these benchmarks.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Yea the biggest problem with people benching and saying the scores lower or something is there's just way too much variance. Even if you run it 2x identically it won't be the same. You could be +/- 1500 from just something random. Like gmail running a check while the bench is running the second time etc.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] buddybin:
What's about the rom you run?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] jplayer01:
To be fair, I feel like these are the same people who solely use GearScore (summarizes all your gear/enchants/etc in a single number) in WoW to judge how good you are at the game. Theoretically, in a limited way, it has value ... but it doesn't mean what they think it means. What I'm trying to say is you'll find people like this everywhere, so you might as well avoid/ignore them (if possible). ;) The people worth talking to about benchmarks are aware of their limitations.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
Definitely; it just winds me up because I've seen it over and over with every Android device I've owned since the Eclair days - the XDA experience is such a paradox: amazing, talented devs doing amazing work, and noobs whining like spoilt children because they can't or won't take the time to understand how these things work.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Noxxxious:
[MENTION=3548759]jplayer01[/MENTION] I do pvp, who cares about gearscore? It's about skills and this kernel is very skilled. Id rate it a 7.5/10 atm.

Gesendet von meinem SM-G925F mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Calnyx:
So on the 5.1 Non tb version, my phone was noticeably slower in some areas. Unlocking with fingerprint especially. Decided to try the 5.1 touchboost version instead because you mentioned it was snappier and it definitely is. No more slowness. G920T.

Also, I've noticed with the kernel the LED behaves slightly differently than when I had unikernel. Not a big deal, but in addition to that it doesn't seem to be able to stay on statically anymore. Tried all of lightmanager's static options but it just results in several second delays before a blink, rather than it being truly static.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Guys here's a new RC. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9MoUXVxQzdmNDhnUjQ/view?usp=docslist_api changes include I reverted a patch that may have caused those crashes, I changed some memory management stuff that should fix it getting slow after awhile. I also added a patch from arter that makes the hotplug driver scan much less when the screen is on since it doesn't need to hotplug anyways except in some corner cases like thermal issues and some gpu parameters a bit. I also added some other misc commits and patches as well as re porting InteractiveX, which means screen off max frequencies. ATM its not configurable and I've set it to 1000mhz just to keep any crazy apps under control. If people like it I'll probably add a sysfs node for it so that kernel aduitor and other apps can tweak it. Enjoy

Also this build has no touchboost. I've found that playing games on the touchboost version can cause lag due to it forcing to the big cores all the time and generating more heat.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Great to hear that guys! My battery life has been good too and game performance has increased as well.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Calnyx:
I agree, battery is a lot better than it was on the previous RC.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] imransyafi:
Touchboost RC1 is definitely smoother in Ui scrolling and stuff. I dont know about battery life. But smoothness is very noticeable, atleast to me. Just scrolling tapatalk browsing this forum and twitter.

Update:

Fixed smoothness by turning on enforced mode. So no need for touchboost then.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Yea I noticed it in a couple spots. Sadly, the sacrifice to battery life and the long term hit to performance when doing something like gaming is why I removed it for now. I'm planning on looking into alternate ways to increase performance in certain areas. I'm also considering making. Dual core mode where it will run with jut two big cores if enabled. The problem is I'm not sure how hmp will adapt, so if I do try it it probably wouldn't be in R5 but a feature for R6. Hoping to have final R5 out this week :)

Also as a test try setting the target loads for both clusters to 75 and see if it improves the lag you are getting in those certain areas. To do this just find the section for target_load in the interactive governor settings for both clusters in an app like kernel aduitor.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] imransyafi:
Most of the smoothness problem i said was fixed when I turned on enforced mode. Thats something to consider i guess? Maybe make it on by default on next release or whatnot. Just a suggestion ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Unfortunately enforced mode pretty much makes it use the bug cores first and then offloads onto the little cores which is why battery life takes a hit, and also why its so smooth. The typical behavior is it runs on small cores and bumps up to the big cores when extra power is needed as they are significantly less efficient. I tried to compromise by making touchboost, bump up to the big cores whenever the screen was being touched, however this also caused noticeable worse battery and other issues related to heat :(. Why I suggested adjusting the target loads is because stock Samsung has them set to around 75. The lower the number, the more often it will hit higher frequencies. Aosp stock runs at 90. I've adjusted them to around 80-85 depending on the cluster. I was just curious if lowering them back to 75 would fix your lag problems :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] imransyafi:
I'll give that a try. Going to turn off enforced mode and set the load thing to 75. But for which cores exactly ? Big or little?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Set it to 75 for both. Or if you like 75 for small and 65 for big.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Erik1805:
Very nice work with RC2.1. Running smooth on Arrow V8 rom :good:
