Hello! What app are you using for those stats? :) (in your screenshot)
[Nexus 6P General] jiv101:
It's elementalx kernel manager
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
I took this one for N6P, and made it slightly more conservative and changed the scheduler.

Link is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxNg1CsHZMjFdkRjbVJacVJhU0E/view?usp=sharing
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
how much SOT more did you get for your use case?

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:45 PM ----------

conservative in terms of the frequency curve? i changed the scheduler to sioplus for my daily use. but just not while testing.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
Yeah, just changed the amount of load before it jumps to higher frequency.
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
i'll give it a go once i'm done with testing dragonfly. Amanuensis doesn't really let 100% loads use 100% CPU anyway, and i'm really interested to what difference tuning that frequency curve will result in.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] charged to 100 and gonna use the battery version of the Dragon fly

Will report back

Cheers
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
First of all thanks for trying my profile :)

I haven't done a full cycle test with the battery version but it would be same as the original just with extra SOT minutes (maybe 15-30min more by the end of day)

Again, this profile is not about battery life.

Thanks buddy :)
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
No matter what profile I select, little cluster is constantly running at max freq. Anyone else notice this?

Edit: stopped. Think it was FB Pages Manager. Weird. Never happened before.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Uploaded a new profile for battery life. Hope you'll like it
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Used dragon fly battery version and well not impressed

I would say it was 99% lag free but no real increase in sot i mean as you said i got 13 mins etc lol back to dragon fly

I'll test the new one as well:highfive:
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Lol well i could have guessed. The way that profile works is just not meant for battery life. I guess I will just delete that version since it's pointless. Thanks for testing !
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
I just finished testing dragonfly and I must say I'm impressed. It still idles at less than 1℅/hr and during my mixed usage test I managed 4hrs SOT. 2.5hrs of light usage followed by 1.5hrs heavy (I'm rounding here). If I were to extrapolate the heavy usage, 100%-0% on heavy usage would be just shy of 2.5hrs SOT on full load. In terms of light usage... In my use cases your profile does better than Amanuensis for some reason. Its when I heavily load it then dragonfly starts gulping battery. Will try your other profile next.
[Nexus 6P General] azsl1326:
I change the extension to .sh and then run the file using FX file explorer with root permissions. However, it seems to error out. Happens on both profiles.
[Nexus 6P General] kouss77550:
This profile is not a script, it's a EXKM profile, you must use EXKM to use it
[Nexus 6P General] azsl1326:
Okay, thanks. I have EXKM.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Amanuensis_Conservative version Usage results

ROM-CM 13 (08/07/16)

Kernel-Ak-Nathanchance 66-8 Linaro 6.1

Connectivity-Wi-Fi (set to automatically turn-off when screen is off, Force Doze app settings)

Location-HIgh Accuracy/Auto-sync-ON

Usage-Web browsing and video streaming, FB via swipe app, tinkering with phone settings here and there, 11 minutes of calls, 45 mins-1 hour screen-off music listening via headphones

Overall impression-Profile handles my usage very well and is really battery-friendly. I made a minor adjustment by setting BIG min. freq. to 480 MHz. Great work. :)
[Nexus 6P General] OmegaBlaze:
What's the best profile to keep my phone cool?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] for saber input boost milliseconds should also be 0?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Doesn't matter. Just disable Input Boost. All those are related to it and wont count
[Nexus 6P General] Balino:
On some kernel, AK for example, should be set to 0 I think. There's no option to turn input boost off

Inviato dal mio Nexus 6P utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Yeah They are the same although Saber is a EXKM profile so when you load it its gonna disable Input Boost by default. I just wanted whoever uses that profile double check n see if Input Boost is disabled.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
Nice! I didn't have any issue with having the BIG min freq set as 302MHz, that's why I left it. :)

Glad it is working well.

I made some more tweaks, new file here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxNg1CsHZMjFUUJfWmFzUnl0TlE however you will have to set big to 480MHz as I still left it as 302. :P
[Nexus 6P General] marbertshere:
Hello. As far as running the Amanuensis script, can't it be executed once in terminal then saved as a profile in EXKM, for example?

Also, i know turning off boost helps battery. Is this true with boost_pulse?
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
The script itself changes other things too that aren't available in EXKM, so it needs to be executed on every boot. I just use Script Manager.
[Nexus 6P General] marbertshere:
I can probably do it with Tasker, right?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Another profile for battery life. Make sure to give feedback. Thanks!
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
Sweet! GhostPepper is still my favorite profile. Gonna test BlackPepper after I get home and run a full cycle.
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
Really like it. Very smooth and battery friendly. Ty

PN rom 8/3 w. Ex kernel 1.21
[Nexus 6P General] arcticnights:
Could you briefly explain how to set script manager to autorun your script at start-up? Kinda new to this sorry. >< Thanks!
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
I use EXKM app and all I have to do is rename/remove the ".sh" extension then copy it to gov_profiles. Then go to governor options select the profile, apply on boot and it sticks every time I reboot the phone.
[Nexus 6P General] therock3181:
You don't need to rename it to .sh to apply the settings in EXKM.
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
Well, I don't know what your rom or kernel is but I have to remove the ".sh" extension to make it work.

I'm using PN rom and EX kernel.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
This is my far the best profile for sot although i did encounter some lag but still best 50% with sot 3hr 15 min charged from 90%

Cheers ????

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

Can you share the link for the profile?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Few screenshots

Using the blackpepper profile

Lol love the name:D
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
I use the profile posted #2801 by Juzman, and I like this profile very much.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I'm glad you liked it. And yeah I know Blackpepper is a bit laggy. Well it makes sense if you want get great battery you need to sacrifice some performance.

Just 1 question though, did you guys had same results with GhostPepper or is BlackPepper actually better?
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
This is my results with Saber profile. 1.5hr heavy usage, games, maps, calls, music streaming. 2hrs light usage. probably will be pushing 4hr SOT. My opinion? Definitely less responsive than dragonfly, feels like Amanuensis, but results in sipping battery on idle and in light usage. This profile for some odd reason does not perform as well in mixed usage as compared to dragonfly in my use case... also phone is not as cold as dragonfly. Right now for me personally Dragonfly performs better than Saber and oddly gives me the same SOT. Though Saber > Heimdall, for any load.

Will test black pepper next.

that's a whole lot of SOT, what are you doing while screen is on?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Yeah i would get probably same results with Ghostpepper maybe 10 min less or so

But I'll use this or dragonfly but dragonfly oh my what have you done lol it sits idle like a chloroformed baby:p

Cheers man
[Nexus 6P General] therock3181:
EX kernel and EXKM. I even left the .txt and it's been working with no problem.

.sh is mostly for someone who wants to apply it through a terminal.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Firstly i dont over clock

My settings are 1.5 and 384 on little and 384 and 1.9 on big

Also sio plus with 1536 read ahead

Using [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] ak kernel

Also i don't play pokemon go lol

Just the normal usage Google+ xda Chrome youtube hell lot of whatsapp like 98% time coz i use it to talk to my gf so that keep awake my device as well
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
not many kernels out there can overclock. I knew you didn't play games, that's definitely light usage.

I've also never had drain that slow while Whatsapp web is on though. I look forward to tomorrow.

but man dragonfly idles with voodoo magic....
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
The one that i use can over clock and that too correctly

Also yes love the dragonfly

Gonna test the idle drain for blackpepper now going to sleep lol

Cheers
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
I just follow the instructions from Alcolawl's original post, and you're right it works either way.

[PROFILE] Easier way to apply settings

I've converted the scripts that were previously posted here to Profiles that can be used in the EX Kernel Manager app. It is now easier than ever to apply and share the settings discussed in this thread. HUGE thanks to [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] for the kickass app and recent update that makes this all possible. And, of course, another HUGE thanks to [MENTION=5886947]soniCron[/MENTION] for these settings and starting this entire discussion.

Instructions

Download and install the EX Kernel Manager app

Download the file for the settings you'd like to apply. Descriptions of the different settings are located at the bottom of this post:

NEXUS 5X

Google Sheets Download Table

NEXUS 6P

Google Sheets Download Table

Delete the file extension / Rename the file extension from ".txt" to nothing. (without the quotes, obviously... AFH won't let me host files without a file extension)

Place the file in this directory:

Code:

/storage/emulated/0/ElementalX/gov_profiles

or simply navigate to your sd card and find the ElementalX folder and place the file in the gov_profile subdirectory.

You're done! You can now load the profile in EX Kernel Manager by navigating to Governor Options section of the CPU settings.

If you're using the bash scripts follow these installation directions:

CLICK TO HIDE CONTENT

Download the script of your choice

Rename the file extension from .pdf to .sh

Run in Terminal as SU OR run in a File Explorer app with Root Privileges and set permissions to 755 (Scripts must be run after every reboot).

You're done!
[Nexus 6P General] Nekromantik:
I am using Script Manager to run the amadeus script but even if I choose run as su I get permission denied error on the first few lines.
[Nexus 6P General] BIGWORM:
It's there a way to get terminal emulator or script manager to run the scripts automatically after each boot?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Thanks y'all for feedbacks ! Glad you are enjoying it. I've shared another personal profile of mine called XSpice. Try that out as well.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
That will apply the settings for CPU etc, however I don't believe it will apply all the other settings that are in the script though.

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

Awesome!
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
You're right and that just what I wanted. Thank you for your awesome script. I tried others but I can tell this one is much better with battery and my phone is more responsive and snappier.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Hey Guys. if any one of you are getting "Permission Denied" errors when running Amanuensis via script manager, do the following:

1.) Locate your amanuensis script file using your file explorer of choice.

2.) Open the file with the file manager's text editor then locate the "#turn on all cores" part.

3.) See the 3rd line there, which reads "chmod 444 /sys/devices/system/cpu/online".

4.) Change "444" to "644". This ensures the " online" file gets mounted with the r-w-r-r permission.

5.) Save the change then re-open script manager and re-run the script.
[Nexus 6P General] BIGWORM:
Hmmmm, I'm not seeing that line in the Saber script for some reason.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
You won't likely see it as this line is mainly present only on the amanuensis script. Saber (which I'll test next charging cycle) was made to be en EXKM profile and i believe it contains different parameters as compared to amanuensis.
[Nexus 6P General] BIGWORM:
So I won't have to worry about running Saber script every boot?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Damn man where were you the whole time? :D

This is the idle drain using blackpepper wifi was on and even received some whatsapp messages that might had kept the device awake, i would say the drain is 99% identical to dragonfly

So good job done
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
No need to worry, as Saber can be run as a profile using the Ex Kernel manager app. To do that you may do the following:

1.) Locate the saber file within this thread. If you select it the txt version of the file will likely display on your browse. Long press the text and choose "Select all".

2.) Exit out of your browser and open your file manager app of choice. Go to " Internal Memory">"ElementalX">"gov_profiles".

3.) Within the gov_profiles folder, create a new file and name it "Saber". Then open the file using text editor of your file manager.

4.) Within the text editor paste the txt file you copied a whuile back then save the file. Then you may exit out of your file manager app then open thexex manager app.

5.) Select "CPU" section then press "Governor Options". Once on the page hit "Load" and you'll see "Saber" on the list. Select it and it will be loaded within governor options.

6.) Set "Apply on boot" then press the "back" arrow at the top left afterwards (important). Now the values on saber should be set on the ex kernel manager app and its set to automatically load on boot. For best results set all values within the app to apply on boot.
[Nexus 6P General] BIGWORM:
Though I already know how to apply profiles with EXKM, I appreciate you taking the time to type that out. =)

What's the best profile for keeping t he phone cool? This $hit is ridiculous?
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
I've been using this script posted by Juzman and it is really good for both battery and performance imo.

Different rom and kernel may have different results so give it a try and report back.

[Nexus 6P General] OmegaBlaze:
Working great so far man. Thanks! Any more suggestions?
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
Here is my settings:

Little cluster: 384mhz/1708mhz (overclock)

Big cluster: 384mhz (underclock)/1958mhz

Touchboost: disabled

I/O scheduler: deadline

Readahead: 1024kb

My phone has no heat issue with playing games or multitasking. Hope it helps.
[Nexus 6P General] OmegaBlaze:
What kernel?
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
PN rom 8/3 and EX kernel 1.21
[Nexus 6P General] OmegaBlaze:
Do you know if the majority of these profile set things like the i/o, touchboost by default? Or do these things have to be set manually?
[Nexus 6P General] Caltinpla:
You can apply these settings during the Aroma installer process, but I am not sure if the touchboost must be manually disabled (that what I did using the EXKM app)

[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
WHAT DID YOU DO. this is pure sorcery I swear. I have never seen any profile/config until today that even allowed gaming to break 4hrs SOT. and this manages 4.75hrs? wut?

Running blackpepper, 2hrs heavy load(games), the rest is light load (reddit/whatsapp web/9gag/xda/music streaming over 4g/chrome), and on top of that a whole lot of idle.

All networks on, screen on auto, tons of xposed modules. kylo R34 Uber 6.x kernel, stock MM.

There is one thing that would bother most: lag. Namely in two places.

waking device using fingerprint sensor. It just won't register sometimes. (not even vibrate/detection)

pressing home (when not @ home) when you've just unlocked from dozing, it'll freeze and lag for like a second until the CPU ramps up a little

but when the CPU ramps high enough its fine in 3d games. no lag there. camera also launches at a reasonable speed. Not as fast as having dragonfly, but probably a teeny bit slower than stock.

CPU lowest temp was 21C, and highest was 44C from manual checking coming right out of doze, and 30 mins into games respectively

extrapolating heavy use for 100%-0% SOT I've estimated about 3.5hrs SOT which puts it even with Amanuensis, idle is also slightly better, but light load usage is way better. though lag is harder, I'd put up with it since it happens only when waking.

New favourite - blackpepper. 4 thumbs up. :good::good::good::good: (no scale here.)

Would also recommend blackpepper over saber. blackpepper performed better in my testing in all areas than compared to saber
[Nexus 6P General] Mikulec:
Does anyone have the BlackPepper profile in .sh format?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Testing XSpice right now [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] currently at 64%

good news coming our way guys ;)
[Nexus 6P General] shuckeru:
it wasn't made in a .sh format in the first place but i'm sure if you ask [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] nicely he might do it? or you could try and do it yourself. commands aren't that different.

---------- Post added at 04:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

how's idle and light usage compared to blackpepper? if its not better i'm not going to bother testing because darkspice was horrible for my use.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Noticeable lag definitely but if you don't mind much then give it a try

Its better than blackpepper but lag in some places is also there

I'll post my results all together around 10% currently at 59%
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
Testing Dragonfly. Under clocked both clocks to 384Mhz. Running smooth and responsive.

And if only Niantic would fix the missing Pokestops and gyms I can give this a Pokemon Go run! (Sorry, a little frustrated.)
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Here is a simple tip

Try to change profile based on usage for that particular time. You don't have to stick to one profile 24/7

Second, Try to not compare DragonFly to other profiles in terms of performance. And do not compare Saber neither because Saber lacks the use of Input Use so it's already at a disadvantage.

Thanks for the detailed post! Well technically BlackPepper is a conservative version of GhostPepper. That's why its laggy. GhostPepper was optimized to be lagfree.

:good:

Underclocking doesn't do anything. I don't know why some users think they are benefiting from it. Not to mention its completely useless for Dragonfly.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Okay guys lol

Seems like i cannot get my device to drain :silly:

I have to charge it up now so before that here are my stats for #XSpice

I have tried every single profile in this thread but none gave me this stats but remember there is noticeable lag ;)

Also idle drain is a bit harder because i connected my device to my car via Bluetooth and made some calls and listened to music for about 1.75 hours and also i was in my college so constantly on the move that's why doze didn't kicked in much :p

And lastly [MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] fantastic job man:good:

For me either it's gonna be dragonfly or XSpice :cool:

Cheers :highfive:
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Forgot to mention

No **** like that :rolleyes: i dont want to be rude but this is from my personal experience for some might work, i have used evry app like that force doze naptime and that extreme battery life thread using Greenify amplify power nap everything

And i have tested it only made my device a lil slow and didn't do much

Also yes i have xposed installed with 5 6 modules nothing regarding battery though

I use ninja kernel by [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] the only kernel you should use from my experience

On dirty unicorns rom

And lastly my settings are

1.5 and 384 on little and 1.9 and 384 on big with sioplus as scheduler with 1536 read ahead

With around 100+ apps installed and 10gb of media on device lol

If you want to know anything more ask me:)

You are churning out profiles faster than I can make up my mind on which to use next. :D
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
I took the awesome AmanuensisOne_6P script, and have (hopefully) got it sorted. I was aiming for being more conservative / battery friendly with not too much lag/stutter.

For those that want to test it (AmanuensisOne_6P_C_v1.2.sh), it is available here: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/0BxNg1CsHZMjFNHdjZlhyUi00MDg
[Nexus 6P General] kyle_el:
Been using BlackSpice throughout the day (since 3 am) and got damn near 5 hours SOT and I watch a ton of YouTube haha. Lots of stutters though. When my battery ran out, I switched to Excalibur and I'll report back on that one. So far, its been buttery smooth.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Lol

Black what ? We don't have such profile called Black Spice lol
[Nexus 6P General] kyle_el:
Whoops haha BlackPepper. Silly me.
[Nexus 6P General] OmegaBlaze:
[MENTION=4151089]xperator[/MENTION] Could you make a profile that caters to keep the 6P cooler? [emoji120]

---------- Post added at 11:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 PM ----------

1.2 or 1.3?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Nah bro that is not possible. I believe there is a hard mod for this. You can't do much on software side, I don't know maybe lower maximum clocks, or... Use hexacore mode.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
Sorry, 1.3 is the latest one I am testing out. :P
[Nexus 6P General] OmegaBlaze:
It's possible; adjusting thermal config. I'm surprised no one has done it for the 6P yet.

Same! I'm on it as well. One thing I can tell for sure is that it drains alot more battery at idle than the Xspice profile I was using.

What kernel do you recommend using with your profiles? I'm on Elemental X x Stock.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Is that so ? I don't know much about that. Maybe there is a reason why no one did it yet? Must be the power hungry SnapDragon
[Nexus 6P General] BIGWORM:
I'm gonna run with nothing but the kernel and EXKM for profiles and give it a shot. I honestly think I just have too many battery optimizing apps, like AppsXposed, greenify, amplify, smart network, and kernel aduitor. If I'm running EXKM for profiles, no reason to use kernel aduitor. I'll report back tomorrow.
[Nexus 6P General] pa.pn2:
Can u please make an version for ex manager?
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Tired of the lag lol

I've added the script version of DragonFly for those who don't have EXKM. Try it and tell me if it works.

[Nexus 6P General] arcticnights:
Will everything from the script version be able to be ported over for exkm? That would be lovely.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
Only the CPU settings can be changed for EXKM. The additional stuff isn't in EXKM.
