Well, that's a good question, and yes, I know.

I recently put on the international Marshmallow rom, then installed the New Trek LCARS launcher. After spending hours stuffing around getting it right and installing all my apps, I'm now reluctant to go through all that again. I should have just done it properly to start with. :D

I'm not convinced that something like Titanium backup will do the backup and restore properly, but then again, I haven't used it for a long time. So if someone can tell me that I can install an AOSP rom and update the kernel, and do it in a way that doesn't require me spending hours setting up my phone again, then I'm all ears.
[G3 General] MuadDib6:
Titanium backup will do fine restoring app+data or data only. I'm using it on every rom change.
[G3 General] mrearthpig:
Hmmm.... Maybe time to take the leap of faith then. Thanks for the input.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I just backup my phone to my 16GB OTG flash drive with TWRP.
[G3 General] mrearthpig:
Ok. Seems I've been out of the customisation loop too long. So that I've got this clear, it sounds like I can:

Do a full backup with Titanium - including apps and app data

Flash a custom ROM

Update the kernel

Then, after all that, restore the backup and everything will be back to the way it was, just with a new ROM and kernel?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
What? IMO its always best to start from scratch when you flash a new ROM. Mixing data/files from a stock ROM to a AOSP (CM13) ROM will just cause issues.

Just make sure stuff like SMS, contacts and stuff like that are backed up and when you set up your AOSP ROM. It will let you restore apps and stuff like that.
[G3 General] Koont:
You'll loss text msgs and widgets. But yeah, don't restore system apps.
[G3 General] MuadDib6:
Make sure you sync everything with your google acc. than backup all third party apps you are using. After installing new rom and kernel go trough setup wizard it will restore your contasts and apps installed from play store. After that you can restore data only per apps that you customized (system apps excluded like they said). Hope this clears things for you. If you need any help just ask.
[G3 General] mrearthpig:
Thanks guys.

I'm not worried about losing system app data, or even most of the 3 3rd party app data.

I'm just not keen on setting up my Total Launcher theme again!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Ok. Well when the kernel/device (Nebula Kernel) crashes it goes to a black screen.

So what you are saying that when you restart your device you have to take the battery out? That doesn't make much sense. Your device might not be able to handle the 700MHz GPU clock speed and if you are using the 3GHz CPU overclock then that might be your issue. If you can and dont mind doing a video of what you have to do that would help a lot! I cant really help you if i cant see whats going on! Just film a video of your device messing up or whatever and upload it to youtube and put the link here!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Update being live for a while

Now that the MM/CM13 update for the settings have be live for a while could people start posting their reviews or usage reports? Like If you have gotten better proformance or better battery life or if you are having any issues!

I would really love for anyone to post reports on their useage so i can make the next update for stable!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
12-23-2015:[v2.1 testing-stable]

12-23-2015:[V2.1 TESTING-STABLE]

1. You will need to change the resolution of your device to 1080p for these settings to work! If you don't your device will crash!

2. Trickster Mod: Lowered the voltages VERY LOW!! Hopefully they will be fully stable. Ill need people reporting their stability reports!

3. Kernel Adiutor: Tweaked the Interactive governor.

4. SetCPU: Everything that was once using On Demand is now using the interactive governor.

5. Merry Christmas eve everyone!
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
i dont know how to do step 5, the part about busybox, can you help me out?

EDIT/ i am a retard, it was just a flashable zip
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
lol glad that you got it to work! Will you report any issues and how well its working for you?
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
I've done everything and am getting 1088 single core on geekbench, but i am getting 2100 on multi core which is weird? any insight?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
So you did everything with the restoring the Kernel Adiutor profile?
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
yes, i chose all the 3 different profiles, i'm back again running stock cm kernel but i'll give it an other shot
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
What do you mean 3 different profiles? Kernel Adiutor there is only 1 profile.
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
I meant the profiles from Kernel Adiutor, Trickster Mod and SetCPU
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
So I installed/restored everything again and am gettin 983 single and 2902 multi core, not seeing much improvement in fluidness or benchmarks. ( was hitting 1000/3000)
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I'm sorry for the late reply. Ok well can you send me screenshots of what the governor controls look like in Kernel Adiutor and the hotplug settings? Are the voltages setting the the ones in the pack?

This is strange! I don't know what its doing this! This is also i wish more people would give me more feed back so crap like this doesn't happen lol
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
Okay, in the album below I have included screenshots of the governer tunables, hotplug settings and also the voltages.

http://imgur.com/a/rn5MW

And yeah, I agree, if only this thread got more attention!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Thanks for the screenshots! Ok will you check to see the ram settings set correctly? Like take a screenshot of them.

Also here is what i do for my benchmarks in geekbench! I either put my phone in the freezer for a enough time to get it really cold or a fill a ziplock bag of water and size and lay it ontop of the phone where the motherboard is and then i bench the phone. For some reason it performs the best under very cold temps.

Besides the ram settings it looks like everything is set perfectly. What ROM are you using CM13? Another way to bench the phone is let it sit in deep sleep and get really cold like from the A/C or room temp.
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
Here you have the ram settings: http://imgur.com/a/iDlMu.

Also I'll try to get the phone cooler and do another geekbench run.

I'm running CM13 (20151224).
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Here is what the RAM setting are to supposed to set to.

Also im going to throw in a sneak peak of the voltages im working on !
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
check my last post for the ram settings i was talking about. That was only the ram usage within the OS not the minfree controls
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
So after applying the ram settings, I am hitting a consistent 1000+ single and 3000+ multicore score, which is a good step forward.

Also liking the lower voltages, if it is in fact stable!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Well that is awesome! Are you also trying to bench the phone in cold temps? Ive been testing the voltages and lowering them a bit. They have been stable for the time ive been testing and passed one geekbench test!
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
It benches identically whilst in my freezer, again around 990-1100 single and 3000-3150 multicore.

Also os my phone running the benchmark at 3.03 GHz or at 2.88? Geekbench reports 3.03, but SetCPU reports 2.88?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Its because the kernel's max freq is 3.03GHz but in SetCPU using the profiles its maxed out to 2.88 since 3GHz isnt stable for crap!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
When its in the freezer you want it to get to temps like 50 degrees F.

When the phone is at those temps it will help break in the settings and at those temps are when/how i got my high benchmarks!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Updates/reports

DId you get the desired geekbench mark scores? Please keep me updated! I need reports back on my settings to keep them going because they will help me improve them correctly
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
I was sleeping haha, but I will look into it and report back!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
ok cool! Well i did a benchmark last night and i got this. This was also with my phone at room temp
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
So, I've been running this for 2 straight days now, and have had quite a few crashes.

It got hot, and just shut off. Maybe the undervolting was too much fir my chip?

Also haven't been able to do a geekbench run at 50F/10C because it would just keep rebooting at that temperature...
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
What model are you using? Are you running at 1080p? What were you doing when it shut of and got hot?
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
I'm using the intl D855 and am running 1080p. I was just doing daily things, browsing the net/social networking, nothing heavy on cpu or gpu.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Are you putting your apps into the SetCPU profiles? Like facebook and reddit into the social profiles?

the profiles are used to keep apps from using higher freqs and more battery. Becauses some apps are more power hungry than others.

You need to put your apps into their specific profile types or you will have crashing. I forgot to add that into the first thread post.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
So did adding your apps into the corresponding profile fix anything?
[G3 General] hakkidongel:
yes, definetely: less crashing/rebooting, albeit not perfectly stable.

Also not seeing the battery improvements and my phone is just as fast as before, not feeling the performance improvement either.... Maybe these setting arent for me
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I will be updating them soon! Ive also updated them pretty recently have you updated them to 2.2.0?

Maybe but it might be your useage like how much your use your phone and what apps you use!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
When you say that you have rebooting. What do you mean? Also When you say it seems like nothing has been improved what do you mean by that? Are apps not launching any faster or switching apps and so on?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Oh Something i meant to tell you to try and see if it improves your battery life and may stability. I have my phone set to 3G because im very limited on my mobile data and also LTE eats too much battery and also gives the device the freedom to be able to upload and download random stuff while the phone is in sleep mode
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Reason for no update!

So for anyone that is wondering when a update is coming out. I am sorry! I've been busy with work and other stuff! Ive also been having a lot of issues with my G3 on the latest version of the kernel with some things not working and with it crashing a bit! I'm still tweaking stuff to perfect everything! If you all want a EXPERIMENTAL build to help me test the device i can do that but i don't like releasing anything that isn't stable because people will always complain about it even though it said EXPERIMENTAL in all caps and yeah......
[G3 General] Ernesto0023:
I want to try :good:
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
01-02-2016: [v2.3 experimental]

01-02-2016: [V2.3 EXPERIMENTAL]

1. Trickster Mod: Somehow i am able to bundle the CPU governor settings into the trickster mod backup file! Please still use the Kernel Adiutor files.

2. Trickster Mod: I lowered the voltages extremely low! So they might not be stable for everyone! I'm going to need a lot of feedback on stability for this build! The voltages seem to keep temps down and battery life longer.

3. Trickster Mod: When restoring these settings please set your SET ON BOOT Delay (sec) to either 14 -16 and leave your phone screen off while plugged in to get the cleanest boot up!

4. Kernel Adiutor: I tweaked the interactive CPU governor to keep proformance UP and battery life long and temps down!

5. Kernel Adiutor: I've enable Adreno Idler and tweaked it and i've been able to get around 5 1/2 - 6 hours of SOT with playing 1080p youtube videos and a 1080p movie on loop

6. SetCPU: I've tweaked some profiles! Ive put the max freq for screen Off profile up to get a better and cleaner waking up the phone

7. SetCPU: I've added a few apps into some profiles it's been too long to remember everything!

8. WORLD: Happy New Years!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I need your help!!!!

First of all i need people to start reporting their useage on these settings. Like are you having issues or do they work perfectly for you and they are getting you better performance and longer battery life. I hate working on these settings and not getting a single thanks in a post or people reporting their using and experience.

Second thing, I am thinking about building a power/battery saving targeted settings. Which will be set using the stock 2.4Ghz max cpu freq and GPU freq and all of the profiles aimed for saving battery and so on! They will only be for saving battery life and not keeping the performance as high as possible!![B/] Currently the settings that are up now are a balance between the both!
[G3 General] demo84:
Can you try create some profile only on synapse? Maybe with new kernel ? Cheers
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I do not like synapse because of how annoying it is to use. I will be sticking with the apps that i use now because they work!

What do you mean by "With New kernel"? Do you mean the 12.1 update? The latest version of these settings work with the 12.1 kernel version! When the 12.2 version comes out i'll be updating the settings.
[G3 General] Koont:
12.2 is out. G3 AICP MM. Can't really give good feedback cause I'm constantly updating nighties. Lol. Thanks for these settings. I'll give feedback once I install 12.2 cause it's suppose to stop the heat issues.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Ok thank you! Im testing the 12.2 right now! I'll be working on building the settings!

Ive asked in a older post, Would you like for me to build settings that are made for power saving?

Like with either stock speeds with underclocking and undervolting and battery saving tweaked gov or 2.7GHz with only 2 -3 cores enabled only and really low voltage settings.
[G3 General] Koont:
Sure. Powersave would be nice since I can't get LP battery life on MM. Got 12.2 installed using your first settings. So far so good. Gonna stream all day and see how long it takes for my battery to die.
[G3 General] Koont:
Got 7 hrs. Streaming Youtube with iHeart and Tunein radio in the back ground. With 3 hours of phone us also.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Cool! Im working on a pushing the max freq on Everyday Use to 2.91GHz with a small undervolt!

The screenshot are the scores im getting at 2.5Ghz!
[G3 General] Koont:
Damn. Your going to get a speeding ticket. Lol.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I'm thinking about releasing a experimental build soon!

The screenshot it running at 2.91GHz! Ill put all the details of the changes in the changelog tonight/later today or tomorrow.
[G3 General] Cherrak:
Nmt
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
what?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
01-29-2016: [V2.4 STABLE]

1. TricksterMod: I lowered the voltages to the lowest that i can get then with keeping stability

2. TricksterMod: I tweaked the interactive governor a good bit! Im hoping it helps with keeping temps down and keeping the OS smooth!

3. TricksterMod: Turned Off Thermal controls.

4. Kernel Adiutor: I switched to MSM Hotplug by MyFluxi. I tweaked the crap out of it! Everything seems super smooth and faster!

5. Kernel Adiutor: I tweaked the GPU settings so that it trys to ramp down more and save battery life but keep everything fast and smooth! 700MHz GPU OC is working now!

6. SetCPU: Tweaked some profiles! For one i set the Multimedia Videos Profile gov to conservative which gave me a extra hour of SOT and kept temps down while watching 720 and 1080p 60FPS videos

7. SetCPU: Everyday Use is using 2.91GHz as max CPU freq
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Feedback needed!

I need feedback on the latest build! Considering its a 2.91GHz OC and other things.
[G3 General] Koont:
Had 1 black screen in 2 days. Don't know what caused it. Can give better feedback when I go back to work Tues.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
This is most likely the kernel. Check the OG thread for the kernel.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
[MENTION=4602366]MaddMaxx636[/MENTION] hey man I'm trying your settings so far seems smooth as hell!! (or heaven) But I noticed you're not using any thermal option?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Thanks! Ill be releasing a new version soon with some minor updates so some things. Yeah i don't use the kernel thermal controls because they mess with the SetCPU profiles. If you look into the SetCPU profiles you can see there is a high temp profile that throttles the CPU freqs down to i belive 1.5GHz or something. That is when the CPU either hits 160F or 170F.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Roger that! Thx!

---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 AM ----------

Any way to lower the temp? Other than set cpu profile?

Phone gets really hot
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Btw
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
another thing:changing resolution and density makes my launcher(action3)icons look freaking ugly and cut..any fix is it a must?? another question.. on setcpu and kernel aduitor do i need to check the "apply on boot" checkbox?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Yes you do! I am using Google Now launcher and CM13 and i don't have any issues like you are having.

Yes In Trickster Mod and Kernel adiutor you need it to be set on boot! Sorry i forgot to put that into the install guide
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
wow this density is hard for my eyes.. got used to the regular resolution..
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Im used to it. I perfer being able to see more on my screen. You can use any density as long as its 1080p. You will need to find what works for you.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
awesome! thx! waiting for your new settings... btw do you know how much does v4a adds to battery consumption? any setting for it in your settings to make it take less juice?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
What do you mean v4a?
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
viper4android..sorry
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Im guessing that is a ROM? Well i'm not familiar with that ROM. I'm a CyanogenMod user
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
dude :) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Oh lol! Ive never used that because i didnt know how it would work with CM13 or the kernel
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
got it! thx anyway! waiting for those settings :) btw did you see my bench?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Yeah i did. Are you sure you are have the settings enabled? Considering it wasn't set on boot. I do my benchmarks while my phone is in the freezer to keep the temp down which keeps the performance
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
let me try that then :)

EDIT: Not Good.. changing the density (changed to 420) causes geekbench to crash the device
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
In latest nebula vdd can't be disabled and its causing set cpu profiles to not work correctly.. Any fix?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
im not having any issues with SetCPU. So i dont know what is going on with your device.
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
02-02-2016: [V2.5 STABLE]

1.TricksterMod: I tweaked the voltages a tiny bit in hopes that the device stop crashing. I kept having it crash at random stupid times.

2. TricksterMod; I tweaked the Governor in hopes that the heat it fixed and that no performance has been dropped but i ran a geekbench and it seems to stay steady in the high scores! Ill run some more benches and see if they drop or go up! :)

3. TricksterMod: I put the max GPU OC from 700MHz down to 657MHz to see if temps are lowered and battery life is extended.

4. SetCPU: i adjusted some profiles

5. Kernel Adiutor: I tweaked some GPU Gov settings in hopes if helps keep the device smooth and temps down and performance up!

I will be releasing another version tomorrow with small fixes because i forgot to do some things to this build!
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
02-03-2016: [V2.6 STABLE]

1.TricksterMod: I did some changes to the voltages in hopes that the device stay stable! I had to raise and lower some voltages

2. TricksterMod: I enabled the Intelli Thermal controls and tweaked them to sync with the SetCPU High temp profile.

3. TricksterMod: I tweaked the gov a litte bit. I hope it keeps temps down and preformance up!

4. Kernel Adiutor: I tweaked the hotplug settings to boost 3 cores at the same time to keep everything smooth and i also make it shut the cores off as fast as possible when they arent needed to keep temps down and batterylife long and preformance up

5. SetCPU: I tweaked some profiles. I lowered the High temp profile down to 165F

6.

PLEASE GIVE ME FEEDBACK ON THIS BUILD!!!! I NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING IS WORKING AND HOW WELL IT IS WORKING!!!!
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Core control is enabled but intelli itself isn't.. Just enable it?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Yeah. In trickster mod i believe the intelli thermal is enabled. I tweaked the thermal controls in trickster mod instead of Kernel adiutor.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Got it.. Btw the Max freq in kernel auditor is set in the profile? Cuz it doesn't change for me.. When selecting a profile (there are 2 profiles to choose from btw)
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
When you pick the profile in Kernel auditor pick the V2 version current date. Also what do you mean there are 2 profile? Which app has 2 profiles?
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
See screenshot
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
OK well ill need to reupload the pack! Those files aren't correct. Give me a minute
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
No prob
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
They are updated! Redownload the pack!
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Reapply all of the files or can I just reapply kernel aduitor?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
I would re apply everything just to be safe but if you can just change the kernel Adiutor settings.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
All right.. Everything looks good
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Awesome thanks for the feedback! Without your help i wouldn't have know about it being messed up!
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
No problem dude.. What are testers for? ��:)

---------- Post added at 07:38 ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 ----------

Btw I noticed that gpu Max frq is moving alot between 700 and 389 in trickster mod.. That's because of your tweaks?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
What do you mean? The max GPU freq is changing itself from 700 down to 389? That might be because of the thermal controls. Try to keep the max freq to 700MHz
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Yeah... I sometimes need to restore the profile on tm to get it back to 700
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Well you should just set it back to 700MHz instead of reapply everything. Ill look into it! I dont/never had any issues like that before.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Ok.. I see this by going in kernel auditor btw and looking at the gpu
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
That might be is switching the current Freq steps. Take a screenshot and post it when its changing your max gpu freq whenever it happens next
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Look dude
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Ok well your device is pretty hot so it might be the thermal controls lowering the speeds. Also just set the max freq to 700 whenever it drops it down again.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Ok will do
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
I think that charging was faster in 2.4 dude.. Or is it just me?
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
First of all please don't call me dude.

Thank might be you. Check to see if fast charge is turned off. It keeps turning itself off for some reason.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Lol ok.. No names then.. Btw it appears that intellithermal is also turning itself off somEtimes
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
ok ill look into it! Im going to be offline for a while! Its 3:05Am here! Ive got work in the morning. If you have any issues please send me a PM of them so i can look at them later.
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Ok
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Thanks! Not trying to be mean or rude but tired as H3ll
[G3 General] Roi007leaf:
Hey man, np! Gotta give your brain some juice too
[G3 General] Cherrak:
Yes
[G3 General] MaddMaxx636:
Yes what?
