Sorry, I should've been more clear. When the script didn't work, I did exactly that. Opened the the same with an advanced text editor, manually applied the CPU Governor settings, hit apply at boot for all and saved the same as an EX Kernel Manager Profile.

What I want to know it, there are other additional settings in the script, most of which I couldn't find in the app to set manually; is there a way to convert these additional settings to a EXKM Profile compatible format?
[Nexus 6P General] 09eric09:
Was consistently getting exactly 4 hours SOT. I decided to give Heimdall a try. It's basically given me an extra hour of SOT. I'm now consistently reaching 5 hours SOT with no drop in performance (although I'm a light user). Great profile.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
No I use DarkSpice 7.5

I have a guide in this thread and I still use the same setup. Yeah disabling touchboost helps if you combine it with a profile.

Oh I'm not sure about that. But in my experience there is no hidden magic tweak that make your phone fly.
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
Exkm profiles are as of now unable to store those miscellaneous settings. What we can do is use a script, then enable set on boot for all the settings.

Just in case you've muddled up the commands, When you run the script in terminal your first command should be "su".

Followed by "sh Amanuensis_N6P.sh"

As far as I can tell the settings from the script are all available in exkm. The script tweaks items in the miscellaneous tab, and the memory tab as well as the all important cpu tab and the I/o scheduler. Unless I'm overlooking something...

When I can be bothered to play Pokemon go for another 3.5hrs straight I'll test and see if the miscellaneous settings actually make a difference.

For my use Heimdall averages about 3hrs SOT. I imagine if I were to uber load it I might push 10-15mins more on to SOT. As it stands, Amanuensis also has a better idle drain so the battery might last even longer than Heimdall on light usage. You should try it, given that I've only got data from me... A very heavy user, we would get two data points and everybody wins
[Nexus 6P General] shadowstep:
Totally agreed! Been there, done that. I've tried so many apps that have claimed to make my phone fly, it's not even funny. :P

Tried running the script again in the way you described it, didn't work. No clue why, but I can live with it. Even without those additional miscellaneous settings, I got a 6 hours SOT with my usage, which totally works for me. AmanuensisOne is my new favourite now! I was on GhostPepper before this btw, which was also great, but this one tops it too! A big shout out to [MENTION=7003898]RogerF81[/MENTION] for his work!

Glad to have another Amanuensis lover <3
[Nexus 6P General] 09eric09:
I ran Amanuensis today, only gave me an extra 10 minutes of SOT. I honestly didn't really like it, the system seemed to lag. I'll give it another go tomorrow, but I definitely like Heimdall better.
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
Are you running the script version or the profile linked a few posts behind?
[Nexus 6P General] giajp:
Hi guys, i ve a question for you. I'm using ak66-7df linaro 6.1 with amanuensis. When u set the amanuensis (or others) profilo, do u modify the max and min clusters cpu freqs?
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
i set min to 302mhz on both clusters because that's the min for the kernel. i don't modify max
[Nexus 6P General] 09eric09:
The profile that was linked.
[Nexus 6P General] Kappa Lamda:
I think that the profile link misses all extra tweaks the script version has. It only changes governor settings of I am right.

Although I don't know if these tweaks really make the difference.

I am a heimdall fan too, but I am trying amanuensis now. Can't say right know that I have some profit or loss.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
I was actually able to use the amanuensis as a script a few weeks ago, using the paid version of smanager. What i did was:

1.) I copied the script.

2.) Created a scripts folder using solid explorer.

3.) Created a new file named amanuensis.sh inside the folder.

4.) Opened the new file, pasted the script then saved it.

5.) Then used smanager,selected "browse as root" then located the location of the script file.

6.) Next I long pressed the file, opened it as script/executable. Then I enabled SU, Boot, and Bg and then hit "Save".

7.) When done hit "Run".

The result is the script running in the background. It also survives a reboot. I would say the profile is more battery-oriented, as it favors the usage of lower frequencies on both big/little. On my usage, my phone spent a lot of time on the 600-ish mhz on both little and big. It is a bit laggy for doing heavy tasks like gaming. But I think it was created more for heavy browsing and video streaming, and you'll feel a bit or a noticeable increase in sot when mainly doing those activities.
[Nexus 6P General] quantumqweef:
by doing ^^this does smanager execute the script every boot or only once?
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
I get the feeling everyone might be super sensitive to any lag at all. Just to be clear... Lag is not slow, which happens when using any of these battery saving profiles. Lag is when there is a delay in reaction from the phone after you've done your input.

That means if you pressed a app to open you see the animations but a black screen first, instead of the splash screen, that's not lag.

If however you pressed a button somewhere and the animation stopped halfway and stuttered, then hung there for a split second, that's lag.

Another thing to note is that if your ram is almost used up you will most certainly experience lag. Even on stock, even if you used butterfly profile.

Also If in gaming then you see the game stutter, that's lag. Not long loading times.

I don't experience any delays whatsoever, but obviously it's slower than stock. Touchboost is off after all. Also try to run a Geekbench to see for yourself, it won't even be able to run at max performance.

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

That's right.

I used to be Heimdall fan too, but I was consistently getting 2-3%/hr idle drain. With Amanuensis script I got less than 1%/hr. Which was a difference enough for 30mins of gaming SOT
[Nexus 6P General] ONeVmaniac:
Guys what kernel do you use for amanuensis profile? Both kylo and unicornblood gives me a lots of errors while executing script.

AK 0.66 unofficial by nathanchance, and elemental X work fine
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Every boot. Also if you wish to use different values, or for example you'd like to change the io scheduler from bfq to sioplus, uou can just kpen the script file via file manager, and edit the values and save. Then re-run the script or reboot your phone.
[Nexus 6P General] quantumqweef:

[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Yes the paid version. It's an old app but does the job.

Touchboost off
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Which amanuensis file were you using? See the picture attached. This is what the script should look like when run within script manager. This is using Nathan's AK 66-7
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
If you use AK's kernels, touchboost is already disabled/remo ed by default and you won't see it within kernel tweaking apps. If using kylo kernel for example, touchboost is available as a setting in the app and you can then choose whether enable or disable it. If you aim for performance keep it enabled. Otherwise, disable it.
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
my kernel has it off by default.

did you run the script with root priviledges.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
^^This. The screenshot below is what the settings should look like after opening the file as script/executable on script manager. Additionally, if one has doze-tweaking apps installed (ex. Greenify, Force doze, etc.), it is ideal for scriptanager to be added to the whitelist so it does not get killed or hibernated in the background when screen is off and phone is idle.
[Nexus 6P General] ONeVmaniac:
Smanager is running with root option and script is saved as root, bg and boot..

Wysłane z mojego Nexus 6P przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
did you at least try to run the script from a terminal?
[Nexus 6P General] Kappa Lamda:
Why do we need to put SManager on whitelist? When SManager runs the script then we don't need the app anymore until we reboot. Am i right?

I used to be a heimdall fan, currently switched to:

AK DF-Linaro 6.1 kernel + AmanuensisOne Script.

Quite smooth.
[Nexus 6P General] darkdreamz:
How does the battery life compare?
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
I'm sticking with it. Works amazingly.
[Nexus 6P General] Stephenparrigin:
Does your phone get hot while using that profile? I downloaded the script and ran it for a day but had to stop. My phone got unbelievably hot like the CPU was at 160 degree and my battery was at 119! This was all according to EKM but anyways I switched back to blue jay. :(
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
Not at all, runs perfectly. Changed some things a bit, made it slightly more conservative too. :)
[Nexus 6P General] Donric13:
I am on the same profile. Could you probably share your settings (changes) because i think battery drain is a bit higher than on heimdall. But i like the better performance. So this would be interesting. Thanks.

[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
Hey guys! Its your lucky day, I was so unproductive today I went to do some comparisons for science. Have done some testing in terms of Amanuensis script/profile. Though I have switched from AK0.66-5 to Kylo r34 uber 6.x. the difference is well... Tolerable I guess.

Here are the results for script version:

And the results for profile version:

So WYSIWYG. Both are identical, no difference, and gave me 3 hr 15 min SOT.

If it interests you, this is what the frequency times are on this kernel. Both runs were identical, I just didn't think to capture the script run before:

I might go back to AK though... I duno right now.

Hope you like Amanuensis either way cause I still do :)
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I've created some personal ( EXKM ) profiles and I thought I'd share with you

DeadPool: The next version of BlackPepperV2. You know how it's gonna be

Saber V2: Designed to work without InputBoost. Mostly no lags/heat issues. Suitable for heavy texting users. Probably not good for gaming. Based on DeusEx family.

ReZero: Very simple profile like Stock، but optimized in many ways for better battery life and smoother experience.

DeusEx: Based on AmaneunsisOne and BlackPepper. If you like BlackPepper make sure to try this. Thanks to Juzman

DeusEx Revolution: a bit different than the original. More performance oriented. Great for gaming. Almost no lags.

DragonFly : A profile based on DarkSpice7.5 and EclipseR3. It's similar to Butterfly profile meaning its aimed for performance and responsiveness but its snappier and faster than Butterfly. It jumps to mid frequencies all the time even for small tasks.

You shouldn't expect great battery life! Even though It should be more battery friendly than Butterfly. I get a minimum of 5hours SOT with this.

Excalibur: Based on DragonFly and GhostPepper. It's almost fast as DragonFly and it has great battery life. 0℅ idle drain on wifi/normal signal reception. And if you dont know what Excalibur is, shame on you and watch this, not just the clip, get to watch the whole anime after cause it's epic :good:

BlackPepper: Based on GhostPepper. Designed for battery life without compromising performance too much. Expect many many SOT hours. If you liked Ghostpepper's battery life, you will probably like this even more.

Just give them a shot and tell me what you think.

Instructions:

Install Ex Kernel Manager app. Then move the files to /sdcard/ElementalX/gov_profile and rename to remove ".txt"

If you don't have the app and want to run the profiles through terminal get the ".sh" variety.

Other tweaks/values you might want consider:

Use Kylo or Ninja kernel.

Sioplus for i/o scheduler

Don't use FB app, use browser or alternative client apps

[Nexus 6P General] arcticnights:
The correct script to use is AmanuensisOne_N6P.sh.txt from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=67127126&postcount=3544 right? If I run it in terminal once, will it run every boot? Or do I have to use script manager for it to run every boot? Thanks.

[MENTION=4049833]Juzman[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P General] Mikulec:
If you run it by terminal, it resets to default values after reboot, so you have to run it after every boot.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Hey man using profile

I can say that battery really drains here but seeing the performance i am not complaining

Do you have any other profiles as well?

Love your work :D
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Thx for the feedback. Yeah ofc its not intended for battery life but how many SOT did you get with DragonFly ? I get a minimum of 5hours.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
I got 2 hour 10 min by 55% this was continous use and heavy use

By 30% i got 3 hr 40 min something but i love the performance even better than butterfly

Cheers
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
You're almost there. For the first or two cycles I had the same results then it got smooth from the third cycle. I think its totally worth it since we got so much used to the hiccups and slow experience just to get that extra SOT hour.

Yeah this should be snappier than Butterfly even though Butterfly uses a higher clock and starts from there. This one is a lot more sensitive and is swimming in the mid range clocks all the time to make sure everything runs smooth.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Love your work

[Nexus 6P General] Aeonxul:
Guys, I know it's been probably asked before but how can I import/load this governor profiles (e.g. heimdall v4 or v5) into Kernel Audiutor Mod? I don't want to use EXKM as I think cup temps are not shown correctly with it. I tried searching the topic and couldn't find anything useful. Any hints would be appreciated. Thank you all.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Depends but in my case it drops 1-2% every 3-4 hours
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
you could:

1. use EXKM

2. load governor profile

3. open Audiutor

4. save current settings as a profile in Audiutor. (if audiutor even supports profiles...)

I hope this 4 step process is simple enough for you. Is there another way? maybe. but i wager it would not be less than 4 steps.

p.s. if you think CPU temps are not shown correctly then let flar2 know.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I've updated my post with a Battery friendly version of DragonFly.
[Nexus 6P General] Aeonxul:
Thank you sir, I just did so and it seems that the government is set even if the profile name does not show up in Kernel Audiutor Mod. Also, regarding temps, I am not sure that they are not displayed correctly but the variation range is crazily high compared to other apps (the temps jump from 41 to 50 degree Celsius just by opening an ordinary app like messaging and EXKM has an option to use the temp for one of the cpu cores as the default one (why would we need such an option anyway?) while on the other hand KAM seems to show an average and more stable cpu temp.

Also, Kernel Audiutor Mod comes with built in kcal profiles that I love to use and also with Auto HBM which I can't seem to find in EXKM:)

Thanks again, I hope the governor is set now.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
Correct. However I took that script, and made it slightly more conservative. I use Script Manager to execute it on every boot.
[Nexus 6P General] stalls:
Pretty smooth so far! Any results with battery?
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
well the governors are based off conservative so I have had really great results with it and the screen off time is even better. for me personally it's been the best battery drain.

edit: I also listen to a lot of music and with these governer they will set CPU freq very low so I get almost no battery drain with that which I really like.
[Nexus 6P General] tkoreaper:
I had already changed my Scheduler to sioplus and my Readahead to 1024 and it's perfect. I don't think increasing frequency of the input boost cores and adding more Readahead will benefit me.
[Nexus 6P General] abbz123:

[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:

[Nexus 6P General] abbz123:
You assumed right! Thanks it works now.
[Nexus 6P General] doki81:
Hi Silas,

just to check, will your script work with elemental kernel?
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
Unfortunately it will not because it uses the despair governer which Is on on DespairFactor kernels, you could likely take the values from the script thought and apply them to a regular conservative governer on elementalx for similar results, maybe I'll do some testing and make a script of that.
[Nexus 6P General] BartLuke94:
Hi, which one do you mean? BioThrawn or GrandThrawn?
[Nexus 6P General] Jsilver73:
Great, glad you like the profile ☺️ for me Sidious v2.0 seems even snappier ?
[Nexus 6P General] Jsilver73:
I remember someone saying they were having problems with their thermal config - I have been using this one that was modified by +Paul Clark on the Despair Development Google plus group (click here for the zip) It raises the thresholds for throttling which seems to work well.

Just unzip, find your thermal-engine.config /root/system/etc and swap it with the one in the zip and be happy when your phone gets warm ;)
[Nexus 6P General] JoKe_42:
Increasing the thermal values that much seems to be very risky to me. Maybe for short periods, but when gaming or using Skype this could most likely damage the battery? I guess the t.max for the CPU is in the same area as for a desktop CPU?

Regards,
[Nexus 6P General] Jsilver73:
Well everything we do carries some sort of risk and as always you take responsibility for anything you choose to do with your device - however I do know that Paul said he had tested this config for some months and he had experienced no problems. I also know that these chips can sustain incredibly high temperatures for a long time without consequence - my old s4 used to get so not you would literally burn your fingers touching it, it is still going strong today, so.............
[Nexus 6P General] JoKe_42:
I know the issue from my S4, it got very hot when Skyping and after several months this caused the battery to bloat which bend the whole phone. It still worked after exchanging the battery but...

Just wanted to make this point clear here: if someone wants to try it, he (or she) should be aware of the risks.

Regards,
[Nexus 6P General] Jsilver73:
Yep thanks, I'm using it and I haven't experienced the phone getting anything like s4 hot - 54° is the hottest I've measured it at which only feels warm to touch.
