I don't know if I'm the only one that experienced this but if you set a lower maximum cpu core say you set it to 2 and you decide to set it back to 4 it won't allow more than 2 cores to run. Rebooting and shutting the phone off didn't change it at all and the only way to solve it was to reflash the kernel. Not a huge issue but thought you should know
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] MM.626:
Flashed r4 without dirty flashing gapps, rom. After 2 hours I switched back to the previous kernel bc i really need dt2w. Battery life is so far the best and very smooth, elementalx bfq. Dev thank you please add dt2w and s2s.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] BIOLorenz:
Trying to flash R4 in RR rom... but it don't work in my MI3w

It was a corrupted download
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] josedb:
Dirty flash did the job, thanks.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Tarun93:
this kernel will never have DT2W or S2S+S2W or any gesture based mods this is the first n the last time i say this :fingers-crossed:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] teodos:
[MENTION=5102570]Tarun93[/MENTION] I really enjoyed the r3 for some reason the r4 does not want to start i have tried everything.... Will you tell us the exact process to follow when flashing the r4.... Seems for some reason some have succcess some have not....
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
R4 not flashing on latest sMIUI. Anyone having the same problem?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Herny123:
I am getting bad SOT on CM official.

With r3 i got more than 5 hours,but r4 gives mostly 4 hours.it's a bit laggy too.

And mpdecission is not working,it gets switched off automatically. :/
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] carmos:
I've got a bootloop with last .eu version
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Tarun93:
logs and which phone ???

mpdecision is meant to behave that way with my kernel :p

logs i cant do anything without them
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] BIOLorenz:
R4 has badder SOT time respect to R3... I think I'll return back
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] diongdyh:
Review for R4.

Kernel settings:

-CPU Max frequency: 1958MHz

-CPU Governor: elementalx

-CPU Voltage: Global offset -10

-Max CPU Online: 3

-Max Cores Screen Off: 1

-GPU Max frequency: 657MHz

-GPU Governer: simple_ondemand

-Screen Saturation Internsity: 40

-I/O Scheduler: fiops

-Rest untouched.

I sometimes experience laggy animation on R4. On R3, I never had any performance issue with untouched settings and therefore I conclude that R3 is better than R4, from my usage. However this kernel is great overall. Thank you dev and all testers. :good: ;)
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] josedb:
can you add the screen on time? its very important to make a correct comparison. thanks
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] diongdyh:
Missed it, edited the previous post.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
Sry, I changed to another kernel as I needed my phone to function without problems, I will try to get let the logs for you.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
For getting r4 to boot u have to first flash the rom than reboot it and then again u hv to boot to recovery than flash the r4 build without clearing anything this will make r4 to boot

---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 AM ----------

Flash the rom than boot then u hv ti flash the kernel for second boot without wiping anything this will make it boot
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
[MENTION=311149]tarun[/MENTION] pls fix the lag in ui on R4 build rest is just awesome in ur R4 build
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
I never experienced any ui lag in the kernel. Maybe you under volted or under clocked it too much

PS. check to make sure your cores are actually activating because I came across a problem where if I dropped active kernels down I could not raise them back up in kernel auditor even though it said I set it back to 4 cores it could only use 2 and then I dropped to 1 and raised back to 4 and it would only use core 1. Solved it by reflashing kernel
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
All is default only i didn't do anything i use 2.5 as max the ui animations are not smoother

Try in cm nightly latest as cm is the smoothest rom u ll face some lag light notification pulldown scrolling but if u use Zeurinox the lag is no more.. Rest for gaming this kernel is a beast :o
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
Change your gov it's probably still set to whatever gov you used before. Yankactive was nice and elementalx is also great for heavier usage. Make sure your hotplug is not mpdecision as the other one seems better. As far as roms I still prefer metallium with stock kernel with it's long battery life and mostly fluid interface. This kernel was nice and had good battery life just a little less than metallium stock for standby. Sot was almost identical however.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
I tried all gov n nearly all roms try zeurinox n u ll see the minor diff
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
I have tried zeurionx it has ghost touches and it's standby is horrible. It's a kernel with lots of goodies I find useless and it's battery life is among the worst I seen. Its not bad but its not good either.

IMHO: the best overall battery life still comes from xcelerate build 1, build 65 and build 69. I had to stop using them as my radio seems to have gotten messed up and my signal keeps dropping in and out and getting lost. I'm hoping somebody creates a zip for the base band and radios and etc as I do not want to go through the hassle of fast booting miui again and coming back.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] SkipperRyujin:
Xcelerate build 69? Any download link? I still using build 65
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
Xcelerate sucks laggy in games mc5 on max out graphics but Gk is ?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
Nope I don't even have it myself. It was an exclusive test build for a select few people. Only seen screen shots in comparison to zeurionx without all the extras enabled (battery draining functions) and with exact same usage. It got over an hour more sot.

---------- Post added at 01:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 AM ----------

Xcelerate was never made to be a gaming kernel it was made to be a battery saving kernel. You need to look for the appropriate kernel for your needs.

GK is a great kernel if your looking for the best of both world's though I do give you that. It's a rock solid, stable kernel that functions very well. It's only downside is the name is pretentious and turns people away. I would have suggested naming it great kernel rather than God's kernel myself.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] rajib4:
I second that bro (about GK)... :)

Excellent kernel for sure :good:

Very good work by the dev [MENTION=5102570]Tarun93[/MENTION] :highfive:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
Than why he added oc feature if it gives lags no offence i said wat i experienced
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
For better multitasking mainly. There are many advantages for oc besides gaming.

In test build 69 oc was removed and if I remember correctly also capped out at 1.7ghz
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Aka9413:
2.3 is more than enough fr multitasking
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
For the most part but you got to remember he brought the first oc kernel to the table and it was all a test. It wasn't worth it and got taken back out but it really don't matter because we will likely never see his new kernels.

It's a shame people had to leak or steal his work.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] aces170:
someone had just done that, 3-4 days back. Let me check through computer and post the link for you if I find, but I think it was under android Q&A section.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
I made one yesterday. Well actually 2 of them version 6 and version 7 it's in the generals section.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] error01671:
Does anyone try this kernel with latest 6.0 by ivan?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Herny123:
Where do you get the xcelerate kernel?

Any procedure to get it? :/

---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

At last I got 6 hours SOT after a long time.... :good:

Version:R4

Cpu governor:Yankactive

2 Max online cores,1 Max while screen off.

2265 mhz max frequency.

-50mv undervolt.

Gpu governor: simple ondemand with max 578 MHz.

Fiops scheduler.

(Phone died straight from 4% before i take screenshot)
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] bmdhj:
What activity did you do on your phone? Games, some video viewing, music playing? WiFi or mobile data? What ROM are you using? Thank you in advance brah very interested. Wish you have the screenshot though :(
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Herny123:
I am on CM official.

I mostly did browsing and YouTube and facebooking with WiFi.

And played NFS most wanted for 15 minutes...

My bad,I didn't expect a direct drop to 0% from 4%! :(

Edit:I use greenify and deep sleep battery saver.

I think Deep sleep battery saver is the best xposed module to save battery! ??
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] mad-extrem:
Many of them don't know about u...how u betrayed [MENTION=3637908]kairi_zeroblade[/MENTION]...(how u leaked the Kernel)... Now stop talking **** about Xcelerate kernel...
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Tarun93:
its better if you both keep my thread clean,

dont force me to contact the mods

I am on MIUI 7.0.5.0. Anyone can confirm if the kernel is compatible?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] marko94:
Yes..just dirty flash kernel,no wipe after or before.. I am using it on Miui
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] eroneko:
flashed in R4 and booted into black screen after showing mi logo on ivan's aosp marshmallow

MI 4C
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] diongdyh:
Flash ROM and Gapps.

Boot into system and setup.

Reboot into recovery again, flash kernel.

Reboot into system. Enjoy.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] eroneko:
Have tried what you said, but it didn't work :crying: still boot into black screen
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] diongdyh:
Is Mi4C cancro? And what recovery are you using?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] eroneko:
it's mi 4 CDMA, im using cwm recovery 6.0.5.0
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] mixmoto:
hi [MENTION=5102570]Tarun93[/MENTION]

i have mi4w (16gb 3gb ram sony camera) r3 kernel works for my device instead r4 no, i have black screen after boot logo with r4 kernel(device logo not rom logo). I have to hold down the power button for more than 10 sec. to unlock the phone (device hard crash). I followed the instructions for installation( no wipe and clean install in miui and cm 12,1).

I hope you will fix this problem! if you need a kernel testers. I volunteer.

thanks for your work! :good:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] diongdyh:
Follow these instructions. It won't boot if u clean flash.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Tarun93:
R5 is around the corner so just keep calm n wait for it :p
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] diongdyh:
In the meantime I'm still using R3??
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] aces170:
Sorry for being repetitive. I am on cm 12.1 12th November nightly build. Standby drain is horrible with around 20% overnight, tried wakelock detector and Google app seems to be the biggest sucker. I am thinking it's more to with the kernel, would this kernel help in standby mode being acceptable..
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] gingerboy92:
Ivan's MM build?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
Mm = MarshMallow
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] gingerboy92:
duh...... obviously......

should have explain it better. i meant, does it support ivan's MM build?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] TofikLupus:
I wanted to try this kernel (R4), tried both flashing along with the ROM and flashing after the ROM first boot.

In both cases I got a black screen after MI logo disappeared.

Using official CM12.1 latest nightly + OpenGapps + FM fix + Xposed v75

I guess I have to wait for R5 to fix this issue and afterwards I can try it out. Hopefully it will be soon :)

MI3W 64GB/Tapatalk
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
Well the thread title says it does support, but real feedback comes from users. I'm not using mm at the moment.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] TofikLupus:
I think either way it doesn't matter because according to what I read yesterday, the ROM is still buggy a lot and not usable as a daily driver, so I wonder why even trying GK on it? Maybe outta curiosity, at most. I'd rather wait for MM to reach some more reasonable progress and then we can start debating about some real support, until then, it might or might not work, depending on the mood of the ROM :D

MI3W 64GB/Tapatalk
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] gingerboy92:
it's not that bad, i used it for a week without much issue(that made it unusable), except for battery life and gps not working, it's good enough. battery life is the reason i'm asking, the stock aosp kernel suck(even on lollipop). i'm not even debating, was just asking if GK R5 will work on Ivan's MM since the he rebased the kernel. it is just that some people prefer to simply assume rather than trying to understand the situation. :D
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] mixmoto:
Thanks

does not work for my mi4w, I tried in every way...
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] eroneko:
Same here
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] BIOLorenz:
Eagerly waiting for R5 :D

But yankactive is cool and smooth even on max 1400mhz frequency... ?

nobody to help me? I have the camera upside down with mi4 2gb miui 7 last dev ... thanks a lot
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
Do a hand stand while taking or looking at your pictures. It should solve your problem.

Oh snap what I really should have said was God only helps those who help themselves.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] slavke1976:
I have configurations as you wrote on my Mi4LTE and dirty unicorn rom, all works fine, just when i try antutubenchmark, it shutdown phone, i have to keep press on button for 12 secnds to restart.

After i restored default settings and all works fine, it can finish antutu test, but not with great results.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
Benchmarks are worthless statistics. The only thing that you should be concerned about is. Does the user feel of my phone impress me? Are there any lags in apps or the ui? Does the battery life perform to my needs? Do apps other than benchmark testers not freeze up or don't force close and your positive it's not the app? If your answer is yes to all of these then who cares what worthless numbers benchmarks spit out. You got a high end phone chances are unless your a gamer your not going to have any real issues.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] slavke1976:
I agree with you. I dont care about score, but i used antutu just for testing kernel. On that configuration was not stable. All others normal uses were excellent
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] rajib4:
[MENTION=5102570]Tarun93[/MENTION] bro, can you let me know how much under volting would be stable for GK? I want to undervolt maximum as possible without hurting the stability of the device.

Cheers :cool:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Fikshun:
over clocking might have been the reason, as benchmark tools use cpu to the maximum
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] gamesky:
tried R3 kernel as I read R4 requires re-flash back of ROM, and it bootloop. on 5.1 team eos rom
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] i snort flour:
But seriously dude if you want to see some real help you need to put in some effort or just be happy with what you got. After all this isn't a request line here. I know what your problem is and how it can be solved by others who had the same problem and put in the work into getting the dev the information needed to fix the problem on other kernels. First Google search why your device is doing what it is doing. After finding that out take that information and search what has to be added to kernel to make it work properly. Then come here and ask the dev if he wouldn't mind fixing by adding the commit your phone needs and give a link to it or paste the commit itself. This method will get you results more times than not. At the bare minimum you could is research why it don't work, figure out a general direction to go with helping the dev to figuring it out and nicely ask if they wouldn't mind filling in your slack and seeing of they can potentially fix it.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Jongla:
I have it completely stable till -75mv overall undervolt.

I don't remember of a single reboot or freeze for last 1-2 weeks with this undervolt. ??

Edit:I use CM official and miui 7 with -75mv and no issues.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] rajib4:
Wow... That's cool :cool:

Have you noticed any improvement in battery life with -75mV undervolt? Or any other significant improvement?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Jongla:
Well i feel that there is no noticeable difference.or I think i don't see it because i have not used my phone without undervolt ?

Anyway i always get 5h-6h SOT with this setting and i think its decent..or it isn't?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] rajib4:
As you have not used your phone without UV then it is obviously not possible for you to tell the difference. My case is exactly opposite - I have never used the UV feature hence the query in the forum. ;)

5-6hrs of SOT is very decent indeed :thumbup: Keeping in mind the kind of performance and standby GK provides :good: I am also getting around 5hrs+ consistently on almost all cycles with Metallium ROM & GK R4 combo.

Cheers :cool:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] vivekmishra:
Any kernel with tun.ko?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Tarun93:

Thanks Tarun for great kernel.. R5 is awesome ..

Guys, short notice.. After u flashed kernel, wipe cache and dalvik cache ..and reboot :) ;)

Hey supperb kernel my only extra requirment is dt2w can u includ it??
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] manohar.desale@gmail.com:
Great work by Great people's!

TK great work bro! i am aware the pain you takes for building kernels. and when final build appears on xda how much testing it has gone through. i know as long as people like you are around android is like having fun due to pain you guys go through. Hats of to you! keep it up. way to go!

i said nothing about kernel because i know it is going to rock my miui n lp. :good:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Jongla:
God's Kernel will never have dt2w.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] saiyammorakhiya:
Y bro??
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Jongla:
Because the dev Tarun93 decided so.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
So are we using back the same flashing instructions for MIUI/sMIUI roms ? As in flash only, no wipe. Or do we follow back the instructions in the OP (wipe cache and dalvik after flashing kernel) ?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] marko94:
For R5 flash kernel, then wipe cache/dalvik, reboot..Work on miui, I tried.. xD
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
Hmm, its not flashing although TWRP says flashing succeeded. I did it with and without wipe, no luck for me. Now after flashing it, i keep having random reboots. In kernel adiutor it shows the stock kernel. Am running latest version of sMIUI.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] saiyammorakhiya:
So sad!!
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] marko94:
first, wipe all ( system,cache,data) flash smiui, reboot, finish setup,etc..then reboot to recovery ,flash R5, wipe cache /dalvik, reboot..that is it :) works for me always

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

That is his kernel and his work..If he want add oc,dt2w or something else, that is on him.. Respect devs :good:;)
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
But I want to keep my data. Can I just follow instructions in OP ? As it stated dirty flash, means it does not need to wipe data. So now if i want to flash, i do this :

1. flash smiui in twrp

2. wipe cache and dalvik.

3. flash gods kernel

4. reboot.

Correct ?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] marko94:
If u want keep data, reflash rom, boot it.. again reboot to recovery, flash kernel, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot

This instruction in op is for R3 and R4
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
Followed this instruction, but the kernel wont flash. I came from a clean flash of sMIUI, so it should work if I just flashed kernel in recovery with wipe. But then I have no luck.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] stratosk21:
Nvm, had it working now.

But then I don't see the bricked hotplug, is it this one?
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] marko94:
yes
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] damnthomas:
can i dirty flash the R5 zip with cm12.1 snapshot version with xposed??
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] Jongla:

Anyone got any recommended profiles?

[Mi 3 Original Android Development] 33HdA:
Is anyone facing sensor problems? Proximity, Compass, Light, Accelerometer, Magnetic sensor, nothing is working for my Mi4. Whenever i place a call the screen does not even turn off.. I have now flashed the latest Stable MIUI7 on the phone and the sensors are still not working, any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] marko94:
See your temp of cpu when it is changed to 1574, that is because thermals.. Best profiles hmm..u should find by yourself..

I personaly using smartmax, enabled KSM, zram to 250 MB, gpu gov simple_ondemand.. No lags for me ..I only feel lags on zzmove when I set profile number to 2 or 5 but that is battery setup so that is ok..

Reboot to recovery, flash that miui7 global rom ( no wipe before or after) , flash GK R5, wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot :good:
[Mi 3 Original Android Development] josedb:
Tested on Last MIUI, i had heating problems (R5), best option is still R3 (iam back to R3), while R4 has a lot of lag, specially in google keyboard.
