Problem solved.

I fully unroored, installed kernel again, installed ssu 2.71, cleaned caches and now it sleeps like a baby.

I don't think it affected battery life because even before i noticed the issue my battery consumption was not out of the ordinary.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
Try it, performance is still good but battery is amazing.

Works very nicely with the send all background apps to a53.

Any way to remove the 1200 jump?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] drnjstj:
So basicly default is "1 LITTLE core(cpu0)" and the 2nd option is "move invisible apps to A53" and then "LITTLE cores(cpu0~3)" are used.

I was looking for a parameter, like cpu0, cpu0+1, etc.

Thank you.

[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION]

Thanks for all the work you still put in the S6, 20.0 is your best release ever, the battery usage is great, it's not entirely smooth as stock, but it's perfect for me. (I mean, if you want to save power, you'll almost always will sacrifice some kind of performance, which some people in this topic don't seem to understand sometimes.)

Battery usage is as good as it probably could ever be, but i know what wonders you can do to this Exynos device.

Memory usage has also gone down to like ~0.9GB, in a debloated stock ROM, from around 1.5GB after about 24 hours(from your memory leaked 13.1 release).

Uptime 48 hours now, no random reboots.

This is the setup that will last me till release date of Android N and the new nexus phones(Gonna seriously consider one again, my previous being a Nexus 5).

Thanks man!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] leviiis:
I use arters kernel a long time (i think since v12), for me a really great kernel! 13beta5, 13beta7 and 13beta10 brings the best performance to my s6. Now i also test v20, great battery performance. On this i had (since release) one black screen after call, no reboots, but i think the device sometimes a little bit more temperature as the builds before (my last 13beta10). My used Rom is xtrestolite 3.3.1, but with the installer script from 3.2, because 3.3.1 original bring a lot of fails to my device. For me great performance.

@ arter, i am no developer, but before i used your kernel, i was a big fan from wanam´s adam kernel (since s4, s5, s6), on 5.1.1 i have see that wanams kernel on low usage ,some cpu´s goes "offline" (not used), it is possible to bring this feature back to 6.0.1 and to your kernel? Also the cpu power goes a little bit smother, i mean on the most 6.0.1 Kernels the powers goes from 400 mhz up to 1200 as example, on wanams adam kernel he makes smaller steps, as example from 400 up to 500, 600 etc...

But really thank you for your hard work. :)

Sorry for my bad english. ;)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] aereocascino1:
Awesome kernel. i tested it on alexis rom 5.1

i flashed this kernel on alexis rom 5.2 but the only governor are userspace, interactive and performance. why?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
Exynos low-power state is just as good as hotplugging.

Offlining cores do not help the battery much. Doing so without impacting UI interactiveness is also a big hassle.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
Because everyone should use interactive.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mjdavis871:
I just wish we could get the ugly hurricane and volte icon to go away...the zip that is out there doesn't fix the issue with the rom I run...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] dewa5227:
He meant for governor named "interactive".
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ganish:
Question is why only interactive, y not other governors
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] thommy200:
Umm. I don't know about you guys but since I flashed v20 my phone is like burning hot when I use it. Mainly while gaming. But it's not the most demanding games I play. It also heats up while using Chrome or Facebook. With other versions it wasn't nearly as hot as with v20. Maybe it's just me though...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] drnjstj:
Yesterday i've got my first random reboot ever.

Difference:

- Synapse installed

- move invisible to little enabled

I've removed the Synapse app. To see if that solves it. If not the extra parameter should be the problem.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Aria.A97:
Because as Arter said before, there isn't better governor than Interactive for big.LITTLE architecture. Go find yourself why.

So he's not going to waste his time trying implanting and fixing bugs of "Dark Side Of The Moon" governor just because it comes has better name.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
This is crazy. My max on a53 is 400mhz with send background apps to a53. I don't know why it's still using so much 1200mhz. Very bad for battery life. What could be causing it? Dvfs maybe? (I've tried using the experimental disable dvfs option in xtouchwizexposed but it's hard to see if it's doing anything)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
What you are doing is crazy.

Those frequency jumps are a designed feature of interactive CPU governor, you can disable it via setting hispeed_freq to 0 but trust me, that will make your device unusable.

Setting frequencies to the lowest / disabling cores will not help your battery at all.

Lower CPU performance means longer time spent to finish a task, and it means worse battery life.

Setting the frequencies to 1 or 2 steps lower is the most sane option if you want to save battery life.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
Thanks Arter. For this the race to sleep is important but I find better results with a lower frequency. There are a few articles about these chips that make an intresting read e.g. http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s6-octa-core-processor-usage-617585/

I opened kernel auditor and the lowest I can set hispeed_freq to is 800 for the a53. Do you know how I should go about setting this to 400 or 0?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
I don't understand your point.

I still don't see a single advantage with your "set to extremely low frequency" method.

As I said, you're rendering your phone pretty much useless by setting it to use the lowest frequency.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
I'm only doing it for the small core. It's still quick. trust me. I'm getting 5 hours+ SOT so not too bad but trying to make it better.

How do I go about changing the highspeed freq to 0 or 400?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
Yeah, because you're basically killing LITTLE cores and forces the kernel to use A57(big) cores and it is definitely not good for battery life.

I don't know, if Kernel Adiutor rejects it, then that's it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
When screen is off the big cores are off anyway, so everything is getting processed in the background by the little ones running on low power. When screen is on, I dont really care because everything else (like the screen takes more power). That's why I want the a53 to use 400mhz. Should be possible.... Is there a way to disable the use of the highspeed freq? (changing the load options or something?)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
None, afaik.

Unless you compile your own kernel.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
None of these could be used to trick it? The load settings look interesting. Wondering if there is a -1 option or putting 101% would do it..
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
Setting go_hispeed_load above 100 might work but it will be overridden by DVFS.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
Think I can disable dvfs in xposed(see attached). Might give it a go with over 100. Thank you :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
Set to 120 and disabled dvfs. No joy :(
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] LuanTeles:
[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] why not init.d support?

You are really sure you have disabled dvfs? i have try wanam´s lollipop, xtouch etc. apps and it looks for me it doesn´t work.

I have found a solution from note 4, but it was a no permanent solution, then i found this. It mount´s /sys/device/14ac0000.mali/dvfs and ...min,...max -> to chmod 0:0 on every reboot (only if your init.d scripts also work).

on the last step i have activate kernel suspend function on l speed, now i would test it.

Hello [MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] , it's possible to add GPU frecuency control in synapse? I think it will be good for battery if we can limit max GPU like max CPU, thanks in advance.

Regards.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mdcool:
No sense to limit GPU Frequency. Even while gaming it rarely hits that max frequency. As of me, I have few than 5 seconds of highest 3 GPU frequencies while playing smth like Ingress for 1 hour (checked months ago with Hacker kernel, it had such stats in Synapse). Maybe, heavy games hit that, however our GPU is such powerful that it really can handle high load on lower freqs.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] n19htmare666:
Do you mean the kernel sleepers optimisation option?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mdcool:
It's not only you, I noticed this as well. 3 examples:

- Music is playing. I plug in my charger cable, and in 10-15 seconds notice hiccups in music. I unlock the phone and notice that GPlay updates apps. Those hiccups never happened before 14 beta.

- Phone overally seemed slower. Open Chrome, than try to open some more tabs and wait for this task to finish while watching slideshow.

- DVFS. Nuff said.

Yesterday I tried to enable "move invisible apps to A53" and it did the magic!! Phone stays colder, opening tabs in Chrome does not slow the phone anymore. Even battery got better (5-10%), at least during this 13h period.

I think it's because of default dedication of CPU0 to _some_ background tasks, while others keep staying on any cluster they like. CPU0 hits high freqs, power gets wasted. "Move invisible apps to A53" moves them to CPU0-3 (the whole cluster), the distribution becomes more effective, Little cluster stays on lower freqs (<4% on any frequency above 400 MHz), no heat, no power waste.

Played NFS MW for 1h last night and today. Phone is slightly warm, 2m = 1% of battery. Played Ingress, almost no heat at all. Used Chrome (90+ tabs) and FB, read book. No more hiccups in music over BT. Satisfied as hell.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] erghetto:
So the only option you have changed from default configuration is moving invisible apps to a53?

Me too have always had problem of overheating with this kernel (sometimes i couldn't keep it in my hands), but not being able to change voltage, i gave up using it to not create problems to phone.

Now i could think to try again.

Only last thing i still have to understand, is why after flashing this kernel, "android system" is always on second place of battery stats.

I don't know if it really uses more battery or what..
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Medel-Silver:
Not all kernels scale CPU and GPU frecuencies the same way, it depends on the governor and his tunables, with hacker I tried to change GPU governor and limit GPU frecuency and the battery is way better, and the phone is colder.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] thommy200:
Unfortunately for me it's back to beta 11. For me that was the most smooth and also it didn't warm up as much as v20 under load.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mdcool:
Will this convince you? :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Jojobojo100:
I can't move invisible apps to A53. Using XtreStoLite 3.3.1 . I have even tried to reflash the kernel and the rom. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled synapse but nothing seems to work ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Medel-Silver:
