Hi [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION], your DragonX V2 profile seems very promising and I tested it with Ninja kernel on stock marshmallow. However, I suffered from music stuttering with my bluetooth headset and Viper4Android. So I'd like to know what value I need to tweak to avoid that ! Thank you :)
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Thanks for trying the profile and reporting your feedback :)

Can you tell me which profiles doesn't have that issue ?

I have DragonX V3 coming up very soon your problem will be likely solved in that one.
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
In V4A settings enable/disable to find which can run without stuttering -

Convolver (Turn this off. Very few profiles can handle IRS.)

Firequalizer

Headset Surround+ (Field Surround is a lot more forgiving.)

V4A Bass (Use Natural over Pure Bass+ or Subwoofer.)

***Do not use Dolby.

In kernel manager (Would mess up with the effectiveness with the profile though.) -

Change go_hispeed_load to 70 in Little Cluster

Change your min freq to above 400Mhz.

Here's a list of profiles that can handle any V4A configuration -

Dragonfly

Excalibur

BlackPepper

Deadpool
[Nexus 6P General] licha26:
That's fine mate, we're here for that :)

I am currently on Excalibur V2 and it works for instance. Do you want me to try other profiles and tell you if it works ?

Great, I'm eagerly waiting for this V3, thank you for your very fast answer and support :)

Thanks for your answer [MENTION=5039384]kyzn[/MENTION], I guess I'll try to play a bit with Viper settings :). But selfishly I must admit that I like my V4A settings a lot and it would be great to have DragonX working with every Viper settings, don't you think ? :angel:
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
That be like me wanting 6 hour of sot with dragonfly :D [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] be like yeah why not:p;)
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
I agree with you 100%. I've been stuck on BlackPepper/Deadpool for so long I'm ready for something new. Lol.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Very good guide thanks buddy :angel:

No problem mate :), you can grab it very soon after I done few more tests. I will tag you

Why not :laugh:
[Nexus 6P General] danmaman:
Yeah I'm waiting for new dragon version too

For testing:good:
[Nexus 6P General] licha26:
That was my first message on Nexus 6P forums, I must say that I like this phone a lot and I guess that I will like it even more thanks to this community! Thank you guys [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] [MENTION=5426778]Prattham[/MENTION] [MENTION=5039384]kyzn[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P General] E30Nova:
I know I used dragonfly before, but it was a while ago so I don't remember if it had lag or not. I was going to switch to that but xperator just released dragonx v3, so I'll try that since it's new and shiny lol.

If I till have lag I'll try going back to dragonfly.

Thanks guys.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
DragonX V3 is up

This time we went without InputBoost! I know right...? A performance profile without InputBoost! Also frequencies are back to stock except Min for Little is 460 now. So make sure that is applied if not do it manually.

Since DragonX has been an experimental profile so far I decided to keep testing open to public I need everyone's feedback you know.

Remember DragonX is aimed to be best for mixed usage. Again your quick feedbacks are much appreciated.

[MENTION=6044187]yung40oz84[/MENTION] [MENTION=4440512]danmaman[/MENTION] gave me some good info so thanks to them. Please do test this and report your results asap.

[MENTION=5039384]kyzn[/MENTION] I tested the profile with your V4A settings there was no hiccups but you're welcome to tell your issues

[MENTION=3510188]licha26[/MENTION] so here is the version you waiting for.
[Nexus 6P General] licha26:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION], unfortunately it did not work. Mention me or pm me if you want me to try things :).

But anyway I already have good results with Excalibur v2 so that's fine ! Thank you :)
[Nexus 6P General] Brutalibus:
I'm quite happy, smooth like butter, mixed WiFi and 4G , gaming , web browsing, whatsapp, long idle time and 1 hour of call in speaker voice. PN7 + ninja + DeusEx
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
I'm on the same boat as [MENTION=3510188]licha26[/MENTION]. DragonX V3 is a no go for me. It works on some genres but not on others.

Even using the profile I tweaked to work with DeusEx.
[Nexus 6P General] Atticustrd:
Anyone using ElementalX kernel? If so which profile works well with it, im charging my phone twice a day and only seeing 3hrs sot. With stock settings. Phone dies really quick, nothing is synced YouTube and Instagram are the two apps I use most.
[Nexus 6P General] kyle_el:
And I've been stuck on testing so much, I just remembered that BlackPepper V2 is an amazing profile. I think I'm going back there
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Profiles work with any kernel. 3 hours sot is really low.. you need an upgrade.

If you are a light to medium user try conservative profiles like Deadpool, DeusEx, SaberV2, etc..

Alright buddies ;) thx for coming along so far :good:
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
I'm testing DragonX v3 and 1h13min sot @80%.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Thanks for testing! Do tell about performance, any issues and how it performs against previous versions
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
Sorry I was in a hurry :) and still am. Just addicted to XDA :D

I'm using tripndroid for io scheduler atm. 512 readahead.

Thought it might have something to do with battery.

Performance is good, little twitches in scrolling.

Hotplug is off.

No battery hogging apps.

Brightness at 80%.

I have no opinion about previous versions; I did try them but something else happened and I didn't get good results with them but it was not the profile's fault so no I didn't comment on them.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION]

At 81%

Oh boy

The idle drain is SPECTACULAR! :D:highfive:

This is the best idle drain profile atleast for me

But the active drain is bizarre lol:o

Active drain is 16%

Idle is 0.5% with 11 hours idle including while i was moving

Usually i get about 1.16% idle drain during my day at college but this is amazing

Not sure whats up with the active drain :silly:

You know my usage

Also

Yup performance is better way better than v1 v2

I would say this is the closest to dragonfly like really close,

Cant comment on lag so far seems good

Will post the full results

Cheers :highfive:
[Nexus 6P General] Dbj.Dhaval:
Being using dragonX v3. Du latest official ninja latest kernel. Got sot 1 hr 14min mostly 50 min movies and remaining XDA. Call 35 min. Brightness 30%. So far decent profile regarding battery. Performance is nice too. Just wanted to share that when using viper if many apps are open in background the music will shutter however if I clear the recent it will work properly. And yes msm enabled. Also just want to ask if if u can tweak Saber v2 a bit bcoz I really like the profile Bt again it lags a bit during scrolling only a bit Bt yes. Also the profile is not suitable for viper.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Good info! Thx a lot :good:

I had that amazing idle drain as well not in this but the previous release candidate of v3. But it's disappointing to have high active drain and not being V4A friendly

I haven't figure out the active drain equation yet.. I mean if we did we would have crazy SOT

Thx for sharing!

I might do a V3 of Saber but we'll see. Saber V2 is already too good if I change things we might shift direction and I don't want to do that and ruin the name

Thx for your feedback :good:
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
DragonX v3

@80℅ 1h13 min sot.

@70% 1h50min sot.

@50% 3h11min

@45% 3h30min

@40% 3h46min

@30% 4h14min

zzz---sleeping---drop 1% in 8hrs

@20℅ 4h51min

10% 5h21min

3% 5h35min

1% 5h37min

(...I know I know, but Just for laughs why not. :P)

- Light to moderate use; I use Arise Deuteronomy (No Dolby) - no crackles for me. Fluid UI except for some minor jerkiness in scrolling but there's always that.

- I used tripndroid for I/O Scheduler, 512 readahead

- Brightness was 80% all the time

- upped little core to 460MHz like asked to.

- what else?

I Don't have reasonable other stats right now, exkm monitor shows previous charge too for some reason.

[Nexus 6P General] shadowstep:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] I hate you so much! You don't let me settle in on a profile only. ;) Thanks for making all of us spoilt for choice! #DailyProfileChanger
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Lol you guys.. :laugh::p
[Nexus 6P General] rakkkar:
I gave DragonX V3 a try and I love it, apart from the crackling sounds you get with Viper4Arise but other than that, it feels super snappy and fluid! :good:
[Nexus 6P General] chikimonke:
Try raising the little cpu Min freq up one notch and see if that helps the crackling.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Thx for reporting back!

I wish I could simulate the crackling issue but it just doesn't crackle on my phone. I even tried [MENTION=5039384]kyzn[/MENTION] personal V4A profile but had no issue with it.

Hey long time no word from you. What profile/setup have you been using lately?

Btw DragonX V3 already has min of Little set to 460 so if you raise it further you might run into drain issues
[Nexus 6P General] wilflare:
hmm so Dragon is now better than DarkSpice? ^^
[Nexus 6P General] chikimonke:
Yeah I've been a quiet observer lately. I think once the Nougat roms start dropping I'll probably start showing up more. I'm currently running DragonX V2, haven't loaded up V3 yet. I didn't realize it was already set with a higher minimum, so yeah, upping it more probably wouldn't be a great idea. Upping the minimum is always the go to when people complain about crackling with V4A, but I feel like there needs to be other factors too. I generally have no issues, even when using the same settings as people with the crackling. That said, I pretty much always have scrolling stutter, no matter what I do. Some times it's better than others, but it's always there. I also may give a switch over to PN soon too. I love the features in DU, but I feel like CMTE may be the cause of some of my frustration. No scientific evidence, just a gut feel.
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
That's what was surprising for me as DragonX V3 causes audio distortion with my V4A profile. :silly:
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
No lol I don't put them that way. Every profile is suitable for different use case. DragonX V2/V3 Little settings are actually based on DarkSpice, I really like [MENTION=5323968]xSilas43[/MENTION] work. Some of my profiles are based on his work and research. DragonFly has some ideas taken from EclipseR3. XSpice was completely based on Darkspice.

I see..

I know what scrolling issued you talking about.. I have them too in RR. There are always there. The only profile that can literally take care of it is DragonFly, at least for me.

And PureNexus is probably one of the few ROMs that doesn't have shuttering issues. The UI is pretty fast in there. But as you said tons of features from DU and CMTE based roms are missing

I need to get that issue on my side to get it fixed.. I can guess what might be causing it, which is probably the target loads stiffness around 460 and 600 on Little that bottlenecks the processing needs for V4A. But some profiles are focused on those 2 clocks so I can't really change it unless I come up with another strategy.

I don't like the temporary go_hispeed_load solution because it completely alters profiles behavior.
[Nexus 6P General] chikimonke:
I keep looking at Beltz rom. It's a PN derivative, but has Pulse and Fling and other DU features baked in. May be the best of both worlds.

Edit: link for those interested https://plus.google.com/+JimmySetiawan84/posts/JJ86jGhcpup
[Nexus 6P General] rakkkar:
I actually had my min frequency set to 460 so I have no idea why it did crackle. I am not even running a heavy v4a profile so I don't know what is going on there since you don't experience it. I am still running some August build of Elite Kernel and the latest Paranoid Android which is still Marshmallow as of right now. So maybe something else in my setup is adding to it, though I have not experienced the crackle with any other profile.
[Nexus 6P General] kyle_el:
Are you using plain V4A or is it ARISE?
[Nexus 6P General] yung40oz84:
I've been using DragonX V3 and I don't get any crackling with viper. I'm on Deuteronomy 0.21 from Arise and haven't experienced this yet. Been running it since release but haven't had a full cycle to post :crying: to much charging and running, lol. I'll get it though. What are the correct max and min values then? O don't think I have 460?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Lol I could have guessed you wouldn't find time to do a full cycle test. But no need for that. A quick test will do. Maybe 1 hour long.

Yes you do have 460. After you set the profile make sure Min of Little is 460. Max for Little and Min/Max for Big are stock values.
[Nexus 6P General] jdmcivic:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] my min of little doesn't seem to be applied whenever i load the script, stays at 384. or do i have to manually set it?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Yes:)
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Yeah I've had that issue since the beginning. It appears the Min value used in profile doesn't get read and set by EXKM. I hope [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] is aware of the issue and hopefully can fix this
[Nexus 6P General] rakkkar:
I am currently using Viper4Arise some old numbers build. Maybe I should update it and see if that fixes it but I wanted to wait for Paranoid Android Nougat to be released so I could do a clean flash of everything.
[Nexus 6P General] joeyfong:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION], dragonx_v3 running very great
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION]

Dragonxv3 is a no go for me

By 40% i had 3 hr sot

But idle drain is amazing about 0.6% while i was in the college basically while moving,

But again i dont know why maybe due to its freq all the version of Dragonx made my device warm and so did this

Thank for your efforts:highfive:

I guess no matter what nothing can now come close to Dragonfly ;)

I'll stick with that and saber v2:good:

Cheers :)
[Nexus 6P General] yung40oz84:
This is what I got before I had to do some Dirty flashing, haha. Most all the time was using the phone, Google plus, YouTube, XDA, updating apps play store, DragonX V3, tripNdroid scheduler at 128 read ahead, CDQ congestion algorithm, CTTMod latest N thermal file, Arise latest 0.32 Deuteronomy, no power saving tweaks or apps. Wifi, Bluetooth (smart watch), NFC, location high accuracy, all on.
[Nexus 6P General] kyle_el:

Latest beltz rom with latest ninja kernel and dragon x3 profile. This combination is amazing. The best profile I have ever used. Very good battery profile and zero lag. The apps that I use every day are Facebook, Viber, Tapatalk, Google +, Chrome, about half an hour calls. Thanks for this great profile [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION]. My favourite! ?

on dragonxv3, kylo39. 95% on 4g usage.

still manageable considering my device is bugged with the android os battery drain.. [emoji29]
[Nexus 6P General] kyle_el:
Sweeeet I'll go check it once I build a new PN7

---------- Post added at 03:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 AM ----------

Got the saaaaaaame issue with Android System, man. My SOT is about the same with that profile though.
[Nexus 6P General] Dbj.Dhaval:
I am on latest du official with latest ninja using dragonX v3 profile. Does this seem OK bcoz no matter what profile I use sensors are always active.. Does this affect the battery.?
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
Can You see which sensor(s) it might be? It really helps to find the correct solution.

For example this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wered.sensorsmultitool

I never used it but it might show You which of Your sensors are constantly active.
[Nexus 6P General] Dbj.Dhaval:
Used the app but it only shows the information about sensors and not which app is using the sensor
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
Ok did You see which sensor was up? Give it time. Again, I don't know if this is the best app for that.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
ReZero

It's a nice anime from this season to watch (do you guys even watch anime??), also the name of the new profile.

I had a look at Franco's and Ninja's kernel stock settings so I was like Ok let's keep it simple this time. So It's kinda based on stock settings but I changed it a lot, like 80% of it.

Why? Because stock had issues. There was too many spikes to maximum clocks. And I saw stutterings happening. And it wasn't battery friendly. Big would go mad over gaming and stuff. And few other things that I optimized.

Try it and I hope it's good

Peace out :angel:
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
I'll try it as soon as finished my second round with dxv3. :)

Which is soon.
[Nexus 6P General] opasha:
Thanks again for your work. Yes, ReZero is a good anime :good:. I just changed to this from AlphaBatV116. It was a solid profile. I tried DragonX_V3 very briefly, but it made my phone really hot for some reason. Do you have any suggestions on what we should have for the following for your profiles to be tested best?:

1) max/min CPU frequency for little and big cluster - currently at 1555/384 (little), 1958/633 (big)

2) core_control or msm_control enabled - currently core_control enabled

4) i/o scheduler and readahead kb - currently noop and 2048

Your next performance profile could be OnePunch or Titan :D.

I'm currently on latest RR rom. Going to stick with stock kernel for now while trying your profiles before switching back to latest ninja kernel.

Thanks for the advice and help :highfive:.
[Nexus 6P General] chowhoundb:
You may want to check out the xda thread on BBS, the latest beta version has lots of fixes for the way sensors are calculated. You can now click on the sensors entry and it will list which apps are using which sensors and for how long. It is very useful.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
I've been using AlphaBat116 and has been solid. Currently charging and will give this a whirl.
[Nexus 6P General] weazie:
I got little bit over 5 hrs this time with dragonx v3.

Mixed use, gaming, maps, some navigation, browsing.

I didn't have overheating issues.
[Nexus 6P General] SixFourSix:
Many would be very happy with 3h by 40%! : )
[Nexus 6P General] ilal2ielli:
DragonX V3

Ninja Kernel 1.10

Little oc'd to 1708

Big oc'd to 2058

Hotplug enabled.

Best SOT I've ever had at 4h56min.
[Nexus 6P General] danmaman:
ReZero with ex kernel

The first hour

I've set input boost instead 600 to 960 with 480 ms

Very smooth and battery friendly

Thanks [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P General] joeyfong:
Dragonx needs hotplug enabled?
[Nexus 6P General] ilal2ielli:
It does not. But I did anyway.
[Nexus 6P General] NBAPwns:
Latest ninja + Saberv2 haven't reached 5 hours of sot cause I don't use the phone that much, but the idle drain has been amazing for me.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
For me, I don't think Rezero is as good as Saber_V2 or AlphaBatV116.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Yes Stock Frequencies are fine. I never touch core control and msm i leave them at kernel's default. But mostly core is enabled and msm disabled

I/O and readahead don't matter that much use whatever.

And yeah lol I was going to name one of previous profile AttackOnBattery (Attack On Titan) :p but that was lame.
[Nexus 6P General] arcticnights:
Guys I haven't been keeping up with the thread for about a month or so, would really appreciate it if you could recommend a profile that you're using/share your experiences with it! Thanks so much! :)
[Nexus 6P General] JonasVFC:
DeusEx
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION]

Dude stop dragonx i dont think its worth anymore of your time

Damn you nailed this time with Rezero

Boy o boy

Performance much better than dragonx atleast for me

I didn't encountered any lag whatsoever with my usage no scrolling lag opening was quick and the animations just are super smooth

Any profile that can give me 24 hour of the charger with 4hr+ sot is a super go go

Just one thing everything is almost perfect with this profile but the idle drain can be better also all the profiles that i test are with big underclocked to 384

What i mean is idle is worse when in moving for any profile but profile like saber managed that pretty well but idle during the time when phone is on desk or i mean like not moving is a lil high

Because i am used to 0.8% idle max

If you can look into that, just be awesome

If you want i can send you my freq time tables for current cycle that i tested :angel:

Super super super work :highfive::highfive::highfive::highfive:

Cheers :cool:
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Forgot the screenshots in the excitement lol:D
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Yeah DragonX was pretty much an experimental play for me.

I suggest to not change min of Big cluster. Did you know 302, 384, 480 and 633 use same voltage on Big ? So if you leave it at 633 it will use same power as 384 or even 302. Everytime you lower 633 you are actually hurting your performance and battery life. Since 633 can handle tasks faster and more efficiently than those lower clocks.

And yes cpu times table is always useful

Are these for ReZero?
[Nexus 6P General] duminduweera:
I think this was a bug in BBS, update it to the latest XDA version and it will resolve.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Yes the screenshots and my review was for ReZero

Here are the cpu time table

I know they use same power but I have noticed it and tested it when i lower my big my idle drain gets improved i don't know why

Which doesn't happen when it's clocked at 633

I'll give another cycle for ReZero for justifying my first cycle results

But this is a daily driver material for me:highfive:
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I'm sure lowering Min freq of Big was not the reason that helped your idle drain. It must have been something else. Must be settings in profile. Depending on how target _loads are defined and how much you increase or decrease frequency range you get different effects

Yeah do more cycles and see how it does compared to DragonFly and Saber
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Sure would do that but i ain't using saber anymore lol

This is the perfect combo between saber and dragonfly :D

You nailed it definitely :highfive:
[Nexus 6P General] LittleConfucy:
I'm using DeusEx with Ninja Kernel, and it seems to be pretty good; but I have one question:

Should I keep hotplugging enabled or disabled?

Thanks a lot.

Edit: Now trying Saber v2, same question still stands.
[Nexus 6P General] dephsone:
So,

Is DragonFly the best performance profile yet?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Yup:)
[Nexus 6P General] NBAPwns:
I've been gaming now on my phone I'm on saber v2 I've heard its not recommended to use that for profile for games. What profile should I use?
[Nexus 6P General] snoprosledneck88:
You can use any profile for games really. It's all going to depend on how intense the graphics are on the game your playing. If your not noticing lag or stuttering while playing then saber is good to go for the game your playing. If it is maybe give [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] dragonfly or rezero profiles a shot.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
It's up to you. If you barely use your phone you can enable Hotplugging. Like when you are travelling or you're on the move or maybe if you want the phone cold. I wouldn't recommend using it, it's not really that effective.
[Nexus 6P General] bsg411:
Where are your scripts located again??
[Nexus 6P General] arrozcps:
