Good idea! I haven't yet tried what we discussed above with the Kernel Adiutor beta, but I managed to "release" the preset list of min_sample_time by using Kernel Tuner and setting it to a number of my choice. After that, I could freely adjust it in KA as well and save the profile afterwards. :p

Have you had a chance to try SoniCrons ButterFly or GhostPepper settings?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Heres a new build T31. Ive been playing around with those interactive tunings a bit. Still working on it but let me know what you think so far. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9MoeG1paHREVEVxTVE/view?usp=docslist_api

Did you come from arters kernel?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Fruktsallad:
Cheers! I'll try it out.: D

Have you tuned it according to a specific profile or just general optimizations?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
For now it's based on his tunings for the small cluster that he put in his first post. I'm using this as a starting point and going to optimize further.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Nabeez:
Nope I have skyhigh kernel installed
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I thought skyhigh was only on note 5?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Nabeez:
Well I guess they have one for the same as well but it always boot loops when you try to download this
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Testing a new build with his ghostpepper settings modified a bit for our soc. In order to make it work like he has it I had to default our min freqs to 200mhz on both clusters. If u want u can join our testers hangouts and I can shoot u builds to test a lot faster and we can find the sweet spot.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Fruktsallad:
Cool! I would love that! You'll have a pm shortly.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Here's a new test guys. Been focusing only on tuning the interactive governor recently. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9Moc1FuNG5HQVVvT3M/view?usp=docslist_api I also highly recommend turning on task packing and power aware scheduling with this build. It seems to improve performance and battery life with this new tune.

I have unikernel, can i flash it? Thx
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
If you have 5.1.1 and not Arter's kernel it should work . I'm not sure about 5.0.1. Just do a backup and try.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] skricciolo1981:
I have 5.1.1 and unikernel
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] kmw03062:
Dear dev,

Is this kernel (R5) based on firmware G9208ZTU2COJ2 ?

Just wondering which COJ2 it is.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] sofir786:
How do we enable this, in synapse?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TheHardew:
You turn this on in VControl (one of the first posts says how to use it), you cannot use synapse for this
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I don't recall which version of coj2 it is but it doesn't matter as long as your device variant is on the list of supported ones in the first post. The unification patches handle the rest.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] kmw03062:
Well it turned out G9208 isn't supported, has to flash stock kernel to get radio and touch panel back to work again…

Is there any possibility to add G9208 to the supported devices?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I'm not familiar with the g9208 and as I'm not the author of the unification patch probably not :( sorry
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] kmw03062:
That's okay mate :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ilovebrickingphones:
Can i use the latest r6 build with MM?Or those two are incompatible?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] sofir786:
R6 is built from lollipop sources so no it would not work on a marshmallow firmware
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g_hartley_:
Great kernel, is there any recommended must do tweaks that you suggest?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g_hartley_:
Where do I find Vcontrol?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
Check the FAQ in the 3rd post mate - all the info you need is there.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] g_hartley_:
Just noticed. Thanks mate
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
All good - hopefully [MENTION=4517211]Xileforce[/MENTION] is still planning on consolidating all controls into Synapse in a future release.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Definitely on the to-do list. BTW I just realized this but use kernel adiutor for setting your frequencies. It sets the file to read only after it modifies them ensuring that touchwiz cannot move them around. I may add this feature to VControl. The downside is you can't use other apps to mod the freqs tho. But luckily kernel adiutor lets you just apply the cpu freqs on boot so you can use it soley for that. R6 almost complete.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] HydrogenCyanide:
I have a new Galaxy S6 to replace a Moto X, was a litle difficult to use odin again but the phone is awesome and right now Im using your kernel to see how it goes with the NobleRom. Good kernel and I see your a good developer and thanks to do my device more quick and battery friendly.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] blackstorm998:
Hello actually i had hacker kernel , to pass to your kernel what should I do?

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Coming from Hacker kernel should be able to just flash right over it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Code124Y:
there is no R6 yet?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Very soon :) fine tuning it. A few surprises too :) been spending several days trying to figure out why charging with phone off freezes it. It still charges so it's more of just an annoyance but it would be nice to fix in r6.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] vish.me:
I was just about to ask the very same thing...why does my phone freeze while charging with the phone switched off, voila! you have addressed that very problem! :D

Looking forward to the R6 version and hopefully it will be fixed! :) THANKS a lot for the awesome kernel though!! :highfive:
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] diabolus81:
there is new 6.0.1 official from samsung coming today
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Yea I'm trying all sorts of stuff trying to figure it out. It's really the only thing keeping r6 from being released atm :/ like I said though. The phone still charges completely fine, just have to reset it for some reason to boot.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] brujo55:
thanks
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Profoloco:
I waitting for R6, now I trying the last release and i think is the best. I only have the bug when the phone is off and charge but I don't care it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Profoloco:
I don't know if it is a bug or me but in the the last release when I change some options in VControl in a few days that configuration dissapear. I display the current options and I see that are the defaults options.

Can anyone help me?

Sorry for my bad english.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] altqq723:
You're not alone mate. I'm having this problem too but mine is, everytime i reset my phone, so does the configuration i did on the VControl.

Oh, and one more thing. I'm having problems with connecting my phone to a pc(windows 8.1) because sometimes the s6 edge folder won't appear on the pc and after a little pulling and putting the usb chord back on the phone it miraculously works again. Is this a normal bug on this kernel?

Sorry for bad english
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Profoloco:
Is it possible have a new release since the new R6 will come?? Perhast this bugs dissapere.

Thank for all Xileforce.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DevALT:
Hmm I'm not sure, but maybe your USB chord is broken ? Try with a other cable!

Or try an other USB port, reinstall Samsung drivers !

Devices Info:

S6 Edge

model: SM-G925W8 (Canadian variant)

version: 5.1.1 Stock ROM (Samsung TW)

kernel : UniKernel
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Profoloco:
Have se got news of the new R6 ???
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
Rule #1 on XDA - Don't ask for ETA's or nag devs about their next release. Devs have real lives and day jobs, and they do this for a hobby.

Just chill.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Well if you guys are okay with the battery screen freezing while off its basically ready. It's been a bug since R1.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Sams26:
I don't let the phone battery run dead so no problem for me :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nofam:
I'm going to ask a stupid question, but is there any clue in the fact that other custom kernels don't have this issue? Could you do a diff on your code vs others' on whatever part of the kernel controls cold charging?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Profoloco:
For me it isnt a problem. It is a great kernel and I dont think this bug is important.

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
That's what I've been doing. Aside from the unification patch, nothing really touches the charging stuff. The odd thing is when I pushed an updated build of unikernel ppl said it had the charging bug, then I released another update and they said it was fixed but nothing that I did there fixes it here :/ anyways. It's been awhile since I posted a build. So heres one to play with. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9MoRU15Z3N3WHdCQ3M/view?usp=docslist_api lots of changes. No touchboost on this one. I've totally overhauled the interactive governor. I disabled the Samsung mods and spent weeks tuning it. I'm still fine tuning it but it's getting closer now. It's pretty smooth IMO without touchboost. I highly recommend using task packing and power aware on. It increases smoothness. Also I added OC steps on Apollo up to 1.8ghz and the voltages I put in for them should be relatively stable for most AVS. ;) synapse allows higher voltages as well. Set frequencies with kerne l adiutor because it doesn't allow touchwiz to change them. enjoy
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ilovebrickingphones:
Is it just me or the voltages are still bouncing back to default?Big cores are resetting their voltage back to 1125mv and the LITTLE ones- to 1175mv...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] brujo55:
This version is not good for dolphin emulator. The big cores up to 2300mhz for few seconds then drop to 1300mhz and stuck here.

On R5 big cores stuck a 1700mhz at leats.

Samsung Dvfs disabled do nothing
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Indeed it seems they wont let you go above whatever the maximum voltage is of an existing voltage... Im going to need to look into this more.

This should be a relatively easy fix. Sounds like I just need to make it ramp up a bit sooner at 1300
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Try this one. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9MoOENmN2s0UlZ6V28/view?usp=docslist_api there was a bug in the last one causing my big cluster settings to not properly apply.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DalekExt:
Hey Xileforce, are you planing to start development on MM kernel soon? For LP it is propably best-performance kernel and I'm waiting for it.

If I understood right you overclocked A53 cluster up to 1800 successfully?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I may give mm a shot when. It's out on tmo variant :) and yes I ocd to 1800. I run that stable daily. I went up to 2ghz in testing but i ran out of voltage headroom. :(
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] brujo55:
sorry for delay, will try soon, thank you
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] brujo55:
tested and work much better but any idea why the A53 cluster never reatched the 1.8ghz?

the A53 only reatched 1.5ghz and never up

tested settings in synapse and all are OK.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Yup, that's totally normal. It's setup to use the higher frequencies only when it really needs it. So you will find it likes to use 1200-1296 a lot on the little cores. But it will definitely hit 1500 and above when it needs it. Use it for several hours and check your CPU stats. You will see that it spends some time in the higher end but not excessive.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] kenpachi100:
I posted this a second ago but it's not showing up ? I was wondering if anyone is having this issue. Every two to three days my phone gets super laggy and I have to wipe the cache for it to stop. Is that normal or is something up with my phone or the kernel? I have the r6 build btw
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
That used to happen to me on older builds but I haven't had a problem recently.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ilovebrickingphones:
Hey Xileforce, do you mind sharing some info about your next Vindicator build?Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] whittikins:
This would be great!

Edit: also, before anyone mentions battery drain from digitizer being on, keep in mind that Samsung Pay is introducing a swipe up from bottom edge gesture, which even works while the screen is off! I doubt double tap to wake would cause any additional drain if properly implemented the way Samsung implements this new gesture.

Edit 2: video showing this gesture from screen off (first few seconds): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-0k-PKJu8A

Interesting. So you get lag on xtresolite rom, but wanam rom is smoother? Might have to try that one myself.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] masri1987:
where's this wanam rom?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cazrack:
After wanam install every thing was working OK, no strange heavy lag during scrolling especially during holding down the finger while scrolling.

After that I twrp backuped phone and reinstalled XtreStoLite 2.1 deodexd and the strange lag came back so I twrp restored backup to wanam rom and everything was OK.

After that I installed latest Unikernel on top of wanam tomorrow to get better performance.

I've adjusted A53 cluster to scale with these settings

Go hispeed load 1500

Hispeed freq 20

Speed is good but A57 cluster settings revert back all the time so sadly I'm not getting the snappy responsiveness I want but perhaps Xileforce can fix this with a Vindicator kernel with more aggressive scaling settings on A57 cluster before he compile his kernel.

EDIT: I never wiped data during this.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] whittikins:
Interesting. Thanks for the details. I wonder what's wrong with XTRESTOLITE that makes it lag. Might want to tell the dev and tell him Wanam doesn't have the issue!

Edit: By the way, can I run Wanam rom on the G925T (tmobile GS6 Edge)?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] masri1987:
i was wondering the same, i think you can, you won't have wifi calling htough

Do you have this kernel installed on your edge?

Wondering how it is with battery life and performance? So far i'm pretty unhappy with the battery life on 5.1.1 , 5.0.2 was getting much superb 4-5hours of SOT and now i'm barely getting 2-3 with unikernel

---------- Post added at 06:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------

also are you using a kernel app to control it or letting stock settings takeover?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
The latest 2.5 test I linked has slightly more aggressive tweaks than normal. Also 1500 go highspeed load means it will never happen. Load should never exceed 100 unless in the event of something like tasks migrating from a fast cpu to a slow cpu in which case it may briefly push the load over 100. In the latest test builds I've added a patch that will detect if load exceeds 100 and immediately go to highspeed frequency.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cazrack:
Can I obtain latest test build?

---------- Post added at 08:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 PM ----------

Typo Error

Go hispeed load 1500

Hispeed freq 20

I wrote it wrong I obviously mean

Go hispeed load 20

Hispeed freq 1500

On A53 cluster, sorry my bad typo.

What most people don't think about is that just loading the CPU clusters with speed the application request out of the cpu usually never provide a 60 fps fluid experience.

For example Facebook messenger with default interactive gov settings requests a cpu speed when scrolling that is not enough to provide a fluid 60 fps experience.

Edit:

Some kernels provide a touchboost feature when you're finger press on the screen it pushes the CPUs MHz speed up in x amount of time in order to provide a fluid 60 fps experience.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Lol thought that had to be a typo. All kernels for s6 have touchboost :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
Motorola quickwakeup is a driver that basically says if your device is asleep and something needs to turn on. Only the modules that have to power on do. Normally the entire phone wakes up when a driver or module needs to wakeup and do something. So it should give better idle drain when screen is off.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I'll have to take a look at the source and see how it looks. I was looking at adding double tap to wake but the source doesn't seem even remotely compatible :( . maybe knock on is better. Here's the latest test build for those interested. Screen off can be configured in interactiveX governor tunables. It's default is 700mhz. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9MoSGZrdWxZR1k3QTQ/view?usp=docslist_api
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cazrack:
Can you configure it? If so where?

Ktoonsez kernel provide very good touch boost settings from his tweaker tool. Personally when I used ktoonsez on 5.0.2 I Configured all 4 A53 CPUs to Maximize CPU speed during touch for X amount of time and than I configured 2 A57 cores to do the same with the other 2 hotpluging. It was very smooth, not the best battery life but that is not of any concern for me personally.

Edit: if you can configure touch boost then you can have a bit (more relaxed) settings for go hispeed load and hispeed freq even for a extreme user performance experience.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
I believe there is a commit I would need to allow tweaking it. I'll have to go find it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cazrack:
Reply to someone regarding kernel tuning app for 5.1.1

Every 5.1.1 Kernel I've tried only allows for A53 cluster interactive gov settings to be changed.

A57 cluster always revert these settings within 60 seconds.

Go hispeed load

Hispeed freq

Minimum frequency

Edit : if someone find a 5.1.1 kernel where I can configure these A57 settings and make them stick I will be very happy so please post here if you know one.

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Xileforce:
The settings revert on screen on and off just like the max frequency on big cores. That means its an issue in all 5.1 kernels :(

Will this suffice? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6n0VW96A9MoNEFVeEZXbTZ3X2M/view?usp=docslist_api :P I am testing some experimental stuff that Google just did in their latest kernel branch for the Nexus 6p.
