[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] AKW:
I've got A57 set to 1896/500

Did not touch voltages

A53 set to 1400/200

Did not touch voltages

Both clusters set to interactive governor on battery profiles

Under multicore, I've got Power Aware Scheduling and Power-Efficient Workqueue enabled. HMP LITTLE packing is disabled

GPU frequency set to 420 MHz

Did not touch voltage

Under advanced, all wakelocks set to 1, except GPS, which is set to 4

That's all I've changed and my battery has gotten noticeably better. There is probably more I could do, but this seems to be working pretty well so far.

Thanks man, using yours now let's see how it goes
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve97ta:
Let me know how it goes I may add more voltage to it. It's a solid daily setup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] fitusv:
Will do, I normally just apply the default globally on synapse after flashing SH

problem is resolved.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Ok after you select the profile you click apply then you click on ✅ from there it won't show you anything it will show none but it will be the performance applied
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Been running another performance profile with oc for the first time since g3 days and i must say im impressed ive oc everything to the max after alllot of research first on what voltages my soc can run safely i figured out that i can reduce 2.4ghz to 2.1ghz voltages 1050mv in my case

No heat issue so far seems like samsung might have held back on us trying to keep things fair with lower asv device (trying to make a profit less soc's thrown away)

Now i wouldn't advise anyone who hasn't had experience with oc to do this

But i have oc my cpu and gpu but iu maaaaaan is it smooth opening apps has improved dramatically benchmarks well as i said dont do it in my case i consider it cheating the device has been modified and frequency changed

Also by the way multitasking awwww flawless i have over 15 apps open and switching between em no problem (mm fixed the memory leak guys)

I would like to have an s7 edge and do a side by side comparison i think this bad boy might match of even beat the s7 edge i have seen a side by side comparison on YouTube with a note 5 and s7 edge but the note 5 was on lollipop and they were pretty close

With the way mm has improved the performance on the n5 i think they would matched that sd820 nooow with sky high and the oc i think the n5 would beat it

Im not sure buuut i am fairly confident

Also ive had a few beers so if im talking rubbish im sorry
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
I have always had my device max oc'd on every version of skyhigh, usually with turbo also, and it screams. Also, my device is running 2.4ghz @ 1025mV on a57 and 1.6 @ 1050mV on a53!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
I noticed that undervolting holds the device back allllot like i can undervolt my device -75mv but and no reboots at max frequency how ever lags allot if i keep stock voltages its butter smooth if i ov it well it remains about the same

But now with mm 2.4 ghz 1.6 ghz 852 mhz everything set to performance interactive tweaks with turbo and its murdering everything with absolutely noooo mercy

(That doesn't include the battery)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Yeah in still on LP until we get a T variant release :/

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
I'm intrigued with the ktoons governor and experimenting with some things, with the ultimate goal of maintaining performance while saving battery, especially when cocktailbarservice is active.

(I made an app that always has the edge feed displayed when the screen is off. So actually, my screen is never completely off, and my device can't deep sleep).

There is some very insightful conversation earlier in this thread. You guys are awesome, thank you! As a beginner tweaker, I've learned a ton in this thread.

Currently:

A57 = 500-2100 / -25

A53 = 200-1600 / -25

ktoons / performance both / turbo

GPU = all defaults

HMP = 400/150/disabled/enabled/enabled

Questions:

How can I log core load and stats while screen is off, so I can investigate how cocktailbar impacts it?

After 12 hours of these settings I've experienced pretty good battery and mostly good performance, but a couple odd behaviors:

-When i took phone off charger this morning i noticed that i had to grant su for any app requesting it...like su cache/data got wiped or something.

-One random reboot

-One significant period of lag when waking up.

Any thoughts or advice?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Don't switch on turbo on ktoonservative because its an interactive setting [emoji16]

2nd your frequency step might be too low thats why you have wake up lag or maybe you put cpu on very high load while screen off

3rd what's cocktailbarservice ? i wouldn't mind a cocktail myself right about now

4th why am i numbering these ???

5th share your profile mate i wouldn't mind going through it and helping out i kinda loooooove ktoonservative myself
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Huh...okay thanks man, I'll start with disabling turbo!

Frequency step...that's the up/down values in multi-core, right?

Suddenly i feel very noobish, lol... I appreciate your interest. [emoji41]

cocktailbarservice is the name of the service that runs a lot of the edge features on n4e/s6e/s6e+/s7e devices.

I could use a cocktail myself...[emoji481]

Echoe ROM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Frequency step i believe is within the ktoonservative gov tunables if you have it too low it will give lag because the cpu has to go through every frequency step so if you set it on 10 it skips 10 frequency steps while turning the display on = no noticeable lag

Set it on 1 = no frequency skipped goes the each frequency = little lag

Also offscreen sampling rate you should balance it too
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Okay, my eyes have just opened to a whole new understanding of what's possible. I thought i had learned a whole lot, but i have a long way still. I'll read up on all those tunables...honestly, i didn't even realize they could be adjusted...i thought it was just displayed information about the governor profiles and didn't know you could edit them!

I just changed freq_step_raise_screen_on to 10....up from its previous value of 5.

I'll see how that works. I may do a synapse wipe and start fresh tonight after work...i can't get turbo disabled, so I'm sure my setup is wonky.

so to make a long story short, I just got my 3rd replacement note 5. one prior I got so lucky it was al asv 11 and gpu 13. unfortunately tmobile level 3tech is very dumb, and nobody could help me turn off the video forwarding notification. anyway the day igot the replacement ifinally realized what caused it lol. roms based off 920c, when u enter call forwarding, next screen is VOICE OR VIDEO. 920t DOESNT HAVE THAT SCREEN . so I fixed it but now HAVE to send old back. and new is all asv..low low low lol but oh well. also they promised a new spen, didn't come. compensation time, everyday more and more compensation, soon my bill will be 10 a month. okay sorry for sorta off topic rant
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] LilK832:
What's the best profile to use? (Out of the ones that have already been posted of course).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Did you ever find a solution for this? I read the conversation following this post and didn't find a solution, and a thread search didn't show anyone else having issues.

I'm on xposed 80.0

g928c with f bootloader

SH 2.6

latest Audax at the moment

Same problem...the module won't work because it says xposed isn't installed. All other modules seem to work fine.

Edit: Okay, it looks like that module is broken according to midst of the recent posts in its development thread.

I did find a potential solution to disable dvfs manually, so I've implemented it and will report back after a day of testing....trusting that default thermal settings of sh 2.6 will save me if I start cooking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] UpInTheAir:
I'm not using Xposed for quite some time. Found it to interfere with stability and debugging. ;)

The DVFS option used to be within the wanam Xposed app itself. Not to be confused from his separate DVFS disabler module.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Thanks for the reply uita! I was adding an edit while you were typing....might have found a way to disable it manually by changing the permissions on all the dvfs files in this directory:

/sys/devices/14ac0000.mali/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] UpInTheAir:
Changing those screw things up. I've tested those and had issues with GPU frequencies being locked at 266 MHz and other weird thing (interfering with max/min limits in Synapse etc). . . BTW, it's only GPU related ;)

I did have Mali DVFS unrestricted to GPU min/max frequencies, but (as per change-log) have removed that. The DVFS scaling work much better, and disabling in source crested max freq 266 MHz for TW. Whilst this may save a little battery, all the Mail boost features etc wouldn’t work (Edit: when 266 MHz or above set as min)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
That's good enough for me, I'll not worry about it then. :)

Thanks [MENTION=3511708]UpInTheAir[/MENTION] !
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Лithium-Фusion:
Hello man, LP was sick for me right before MM. 8cpus were acting like crazy, unstable, so I have decided to disable dvfs, first done it by wanam but didnt make any difference. Probably wasnt my solution and I thought wanam's one wasnt working. MM fixed mos of things, no weird loads and no need to disable dvfs lol.

i did a hard mod and i reliesed samsung are sneaky f***s i put in there "liquid" cooling heat pipe to the aluminium frame (not really i just put a copper strip) with some cpu thermal paste i promise you i got early 100s in antutu without oc :o those sneaky sneaky little(insert insult) the 8890 in the s7 edge is an oclocked 7420 with some tweaks :o :o

Ill get to stripping the phone tomorrow and do a step by step ill also add a bit of glue to hold everything firmly before closing it up i dont like opening up my phone its really tricky to get it open without breaking anything

But soon after i wanna over clock to 2.4 ghz and 1.6 ghz and gpu as well and do a stress test with and without the copper and see the result and performance gains
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
It's been a few days since I've been able to experiment with this, so I've been using a stable interactive profile. But i had some time tonight to try and tune a ktoonz profile. Because of the mod above, my device is under a high load during screen on/off events. So this is my attempt to improve performance by:

- disabling no_extra_cores_screen_off

- increasing freq step up

- blocking offline for 50 cycles after screen on/off events

- a few other tweaks

A57 and A53 are done the same. No frequency or voltage modifications yet. If this is stable, I'll do those tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
So the battery use today has been about the same as with Interactive. Device feels mostly smooth, but not as snappy as Turbo mode....ultimately i want to tweak this ktoonz to be as close to interactive/performance/turbo as i can, but with individual cores going offline when not in use...then I'll oc/uv and see what i can squeeze out of my mediocre asv 7 chip...

I did have 2 reboots today. And also the device froze twice...pwr+home+voldwn to reboot and recover....

I'm thinking it might be necessary to decrease the freq_step_lower values, and maybe increase the hotplug_offline values...to increase performance slightly (assuming my issues today we're caused by the cpu choking).

Question: ktoonz docs say block_cycle values of 22 should equal about 1 second with 45000 sample rate..... I'm trying to achieve a 10 second delay, so that should be 220....but my measurements last night were about 11 second delay when block_cycle = 50.... I think I'm way off here...thoughts?

Interactive Turbo prefers to use the faster A57 cluster over the A53.... I thought the best way to reproduce that with ktoonz would be to start with a performance profile for HMP (400/150 loads). It's not quite turbo.... I'll research first, but my logic says to drop it even lower.

Also when you say 10 second which claret a57 or a53 also 10 second is like 10 million years in cpu mate why so low in any cluster ill look at a profile i made based in kt some people said its ok smooth but no luck with others you can try apply that on as a foundation and go from there but with the setup your talking about im expecting bad performance very bad

Clear Synapse data before flash and don't restore any profile between version.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Good advice. Last night I figured out 151/150, and it appears to closely resemble turbo mode.

I made a bunch of changes (still not oc) and device is very snappy now....I'm on the right path! It's slightly unstable though and I'm having trouble identifying the cause. I might adjust to your suggested values for HMP later today.

Good question. Its a bit arbitrary and intentionally excessive, I know. The app I made was created with Tasker b/c I'm not very experienced in java...so I use a bunch of shell scripts and they take a few seconds to execute, every time the screen state changes. I figured I could tune it down later, but would reduce the debugging variables if I could rule out early hotplugging entirely for now.

Here's what I've got so far. Works great, but i get a few freezes and reboots throughout the day.

https://mega.nz/#!tdpxULLI!Ne4TJGvkfUY-gjbDi2KB90N3f_Yw_EKjImy3gtPvupE
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Whats your asv bin like?

your explaining an issue that closely resembles too much undervolting can you try maybe increase your voltages across the board by say 12.5mv at a go and see if that help resolve the freezing and random reboots best way to test that is by selecting performance gov for about a min keep all cores at max frequency till your sure it doesn't reboot but make sure you have 2 min safety on
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Will do. So far I haven't undervolted at all yet...havent overclocked either...I did drop minimum clock to 200/500 though, but these reboots occurred before that adjustment last night.

Currently I am 200/1600 default voltage and 500/2100 default voltage.

My ASV is only 7 so you may be onto something. I'll overvolt 2 clicks and see how that goes for the rest of the day.

On Interactive I can undervolt -50 without reboots (slight stutter) and -37.5 is buttah...

Edit: ...min A57 minimum freq is 500 of course, not 400...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Yeah, it just froze/rebooted again....it is acting a little like it's uv too far, but I am actually ov +12.5 over defaults on every freq...HPM voltage margin is still at default 25000 millivolts, FWIW....

Maybe it's one of the other tunables....hotplug values are extremely low on A57.

I'm flashing a new ROM tonight...not sure if that would make a difference, but we'll see.

Edit: this is not an emergency either. I do have a rock solid and stable Interactive profile to use. I'm just trying to learn, and take advantage of every drop of energy in the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Which version sky high are you using i never once had a random reboot or freeze on any sky high that i used from 3.5 upwards has been rock solid for me so must be the rom im assuming
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
I use a g928c s6e+ and I upgraded to MM with the g928f bootloader, so that's my base. I agree, SH is rock solid. I definitely don't believe there's a kernel bug...the ROM I was on is also solid, but I have other modifications too.

I have been on Audax 1.3

Orgia debloater

Sky High 2.7 (latest for my device)

I am now on BobCatRom and SH 2.7

I also have xposed, a custom ui theme, several custom themed apps (play store/google now/hangouts/youtube/facebook/google voice/netflix/mega/dropbox/sky drive)

...so there are variables.

After flashing BobCatRom last night, I just let the ROM settle in with defaults in synapse.

I'll restore the ktoonz profile in a little while and see if there's a difference.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Any update mate ???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Hard mod no thermal paste dont know where it went i haven't done my step by step because of it i had to clean the old one of now i gotta wait till my paste arrives and redo the instructions but believe me when i tell you this with paste on expect 100k plus without oc
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Lol forgot to turn of power saving
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RuggedHunter:
Nothing more than anecdotal.

I switched to BobCatRom 2.0 MM, SH 2.7, Xposed w/ same modules, same modified apps.

I let the ROM settle for about 12 hours on all defaults. Very stable.

Then I switched to ktoonz and tweaked as follows:

200/1500 default voltage

500/2100 default voltage

freq_step_up = 10 both off/on

freq_step_down = 4 both off/on

no_extra_cores_screen_off = 0 both

block_cycles_offline = 220 A57 Only

all other tunables default (hotplug thresholds, raise/lower thresholds, etc...)

HPM margins default

HMP 151/150

Power efficiency scheduling enabled

Little - disabled

PEWQ enabled

GPU and I/O all defaults

This setup was okay...a little stutter when scrolling. It was stable for about 4 hours, then I got a reboot.

I think this has to be related to one of my modded apps or xposed. I need to find the time/patience to start clean and add one mod per day until I get a reboot. This does not appear to be kernel or ROM related, and although my tweaking certainly is contributing to the problem, I think the core issue lies elsewhere and needs to be isolated.
