[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] :
I started tweaking one by one -each core at a time-undervolting them and going to left of the Slider and all seemed well then random reboots started and since I had so many cores undervolted I couldn't pinpoint which was at fault.

Now I just set synapse at Interactive governer and profiles are set at Battery for both cores.

Wake locks I have Powermanger disabled -I don't know what the others do -lli_pm_wakelock (seems to be modem related) so Enabled that.

For a noob who wants good SOT and proper deep sleep. I am assuming this is the best right?

I'm at Sky high 5.8 kernel and I don't see profile settings for that version here?

Synapse profile restoring problem

Hello, I'm on Superman 1.16 ROM using SuperKernel 1.9.2; I'm trying to restore a synapse profile, I can select the right profile's name but after appling it with V and clicked the "restore selected profile" tab, it shows "none" as selected profile and synapse will not reboot by itself. If I scroll down and restart synapse with the restat tab, it not will not the X in statusbar. How can I be sure that the profile has been selected? Thank you very much in advance. ER

Long life and Maximum performance for sm-n920i

Hi, can someone make me a profile for Long life and also maximum performance for my note 5.

Thanks in advance.:)

You can't ask for a white paper which is completely black in the same time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] lumikin:
I think he meant to have a good balance. Honestly Bravomail's guide is applicable to the note 5
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] davebugyi:
well, in that case it is different :) And yes, that guide seems to be fine.

Applicable to s7?

If this is not the right area please direct me.

I am wondering if anyone has synapse settings for the galaxy s7 my model specifically is the g930f. My goal is the best battery longevity possible, I'm not a gamer and don't need/use graphically intense applications.

Can/should I do anything with undervolting? I've read two sides on this one that it's helpful, the other side says don't try it.

Suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

Dave.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Ninja_Gundam:
I've tried Bravo settings but so much lag on my s7 :| prometheus 2.0.0 as kernel. If i have time i will upload my profile if anynone want to try it , it's battery oriented but with no lag (on my apps) and i even have enable powersaver function.

Chooo

Huge help. Thank you and [MENTION=6311359]muffinsmuffy[/MENTION] as well. I'll give -75 a shot and see what happens lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] lastfugi1979:
Thanks a ton!! will apply this and post some battery screenshots to confirm improvements. :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
[MENTION=6985142]Akw6190[/MENTION] If you want to give -75 a try reduce it by -25 (4steps) at a time and test make sure that you have the 2 mim safety on as well it really helps out on battery you can also give underclocking a try wish you the best if you need any help we are all here to help out
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve97ta:
I tried more than the -75 and started getting reboots lol. Anyone can apply my settings and it should be safe my ASV is a 5 across the board so its in the middle. battery has been great so far even while playing some games and youtube which normally eats the battery like crazy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] AKW:
Thanks, bro. I actually have had it on -75 for about an hour now and I've been putting it through its paces. No reboots or stutters yet. Watched some Netflix, made a call, sent a few texts, listened to some Pandora. I'm basically going to try and make it reboot to see what the threshold is, but I'm not having any issues so far.

Thanks again for the info :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Your asv is bad man i had 12 across the board once but that mother had issue it was shutting down cores for no reasom this one is 10 9 gpu and 9 a57 i think

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:05 PM ----------

-75 mv seems to be the best setup so far on our socs i could go to 85 but i think ill just have trouble later if -75 mv is good for you too then stick with it ive had great results with my setup it doesn't heat up and great battery life so far so i think -75 is the threshold
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] lastfugi1979:
Do I need to apply this profile every time I reboot the phone?? I see that the "X" mark needs to be clicked for the restored profile to stay when I open synapse again after reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] guaneet:
.3% drain overnight for 9 hours.! All features still enabled too( WiFi calling,voLTE, wifi). I also did change my wifi setting to never keep wifi on during deep sleep.

All i did in synapse was set wake locks to lowest wake time( 1 for everything except GPS>4 and wlan>3)

I also changed wifi dtim screen off AND on to 5( apparently slight delayed push notifications but I haven't noticed. You can possible increase screen off intervals too)

Amazing so far! I think I finally found a decent set up for nyself.

If anybody wants to chime in and help me build a profile orientated towards usage towards Web browsering, a bunch of music playing, and xda browsering I would appreciate it!

Voltage Help

So in my limited experience with Synapse, Iv'e found that if you want stability when overclocking and running benchmarks, you need to raise the voltage as well. The only negative tradeoff to this is decreased battery life and probably a little more heat, but the advantages speak for themselves. Iv'e been going with about a 3 tick increase on the voltage slider on every voltage. I'm sure I could tweak this going up or down a few ticks on some random voltages and get better battery life, but I'm just trying to get it to stop rebooting on you. Hope this helps! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Nope you just need to wait the 2 minutes

---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 PM ----------

Not mentioning the risk of burning out the cpu so far we are trying to get better battery life with smooth iu performance benchmarks are full of it while they give you a rough idea of how certain aspects of the device is performing real world usage is different if you want highe bench score overclock and put your phone in the fridge that will give super scores but in real life it would throttle fast and lag in the iu underload (htc m9 comes to mind) uv keeps your device cooler and running at peak for longer while preserving battery and if you do it right will be just as stable asv bin is a point if every device was the same why not keep them at the high voltage and save them selves the trouble they found them stable at those voltages and keep pumping the juice on the unstable ones its not the exact voltage the device can run stable on just an FYI im no pro here but i did my research [emoji13]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Just have to wait at least 2 minutes after applying a profile before rebooting and sometimes it can take like 2 mins for the synapse boot complete message to show after a reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] nickdagriff:
You are exactly right, it will definitely burn up the CPU or the RAM or the GPU, or any number of things with these lovely new SoC's, that was why I said just like two or three ticks on the slider, I'm not talking about adding 20 or 30mV across the board or anything. I had problems with rebooting when I first over clocked this device, that's what fixed it for me. The battery life sucks, but Iv'e also read that deleting the Facebook app has been giving up to 20% more battery life on some other devices.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Wouldnt risk it also why overclock ? We have a 64 bit octa core thats 8 cores of pure grunt even when underclocked id be hard pressed to notice any change in performance im happy with my setup 1.5 ghz A57 1ghz A53 420 mhz gpu with and average of about 8 hours sot i dont have no fb account to begin with so that the first to go in my list along with Instagram too (too many selfies on there)

Also what do you mean on screen frequency is not sticking mine are so this is weird uita said the same but im not experiencing that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve97ta:
I set them at 1896 for max and it reverted back to stock.

I just tried it again and its sticking to the 1896 for the past minute or so. The check mark and the X popped up so I hit the X. The 1896 is still there??? So I'll keep an eye on it for a bit and check it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Ok so underclocking is the issue let me try
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CanMan1:
Attached is my UVed voltage curve for a ASV group 7 (g3d 9) with no OC. UV is very roughly maxed for everything, but A53 voltages (max/min) can be tweaked. Restore it over your current settings for the new voltage defaults to be set.

Devices with an ASV group between 4-12 can use my voltage curve as a guide since the voltage curves of each ASV group differ by 12.5mV (2 steps). See:

(Highlighted line is ASV10. Note: "shipped units follow a*Poisson*distribution pattern where the vast majority of chipsets fall at or around the lambda of ASV10-ASV11. I’ve yet to see a report of somebody receive a device of <ASV6, which doesn’t mean they don’t exist, but they may be very rare.")

For example, ASV7 g3d using my voltage table would increase the GPU voltages by 25mV (4 steps).

For added stability, try increasing the HPM voltage linearly with frequency voltages.

Also attached is my extracted asv_group for reference. Anyone know what the rcc values are? I haven't Googled it yet...

I can't attach in XDA app, so download below:

I got around 6 hrs SOT on light use after applying the profile from Steve...which is still better than the 5 hrs I was getting earlier..but "Android system" seems to be taking up large chunk of the battery...almost 20%...any system packages to be disabled to control this?? Also this morning on reboot I was getting "process system not responding" "process. Com.android. phone" not responding errors...not sure they are related to kernel tweaks..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve97ta:

Screen was taking 7%, and Android system 20%.. .. definitely not normal.. I have Amplify, DS Battery Saver, Greenify running on Xposed.. and generally the phone is good in deep sleep. .

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 954wrecker:
I know this question if way off topic, but you guys seem really smart so I'll ask it just in case anyone knows a tip or trick.

Is it possible to add screen on notifications to our note 5's? XLED for xposed works on my note 3 running kit kat but the dev doesnt respond to messages anymore. The only time i have seen my light blink with the screen on was when testing it with the synapse app. Maybe whatever it does to test the led we can edit a file somewhere and turn it on not just for testing purposes?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve97ta:
Nice is that just running ktoonservative?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Лithium-Фusion:
Your Led notifications dont work unless you test it in Synapse? Or I misunderstood?

No, I've not have that beauty yet. Just did it manually(Probably under multicore Settings in synapse, couldnt remember now, sorry).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
It is under multicore you select how many are allowed to run

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Лithium-Фusion:
Being on default is not too bad as far as I think.. Rave Vol II rom, SkyHigh 4( with default settings ).. Wifi on, nfc on(forgot to turn it off), smart stay on(forgot that too), sync on, Min auto brightness, etc.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CanMan1:
In my testing with PCMark for Android and a "battery optimized" profile, I was only able to get ~10% more battery life at a cost of ~10% lower performance.

Unless the tweaks made improve battery life more than it hurts performance, then your phone won't get any more efficient. For example, if your phone processes a task using half the power while taking twice as long, then it isn't any more efficient. So you might be better off saving your time and leaving most things at default.

Undervolting is the exception since it always saves battery. Refer to Andrei's article to see how much. Underclocking can potentially save battery, but it depends on the user's time in states. I think underclocking doesn't have a noticeable impact on battery for our devices since relatively little time is spent at high frequencies. Maybe if you updated apps frequently, or etc it would make a difference.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] UpInTheAir:
I don't have the time to tweak and test everything, Maintaining and developing such support and contributions takes a lot of time, so more help the better. :)

I do notice on the Ktoonisified profile could do with scaling down a little faster. I just need to increase the down thresholds a bit at some point. Same for the Battery, but decrease the thresholds to scale up a bit faster. I don't compile the input-booster driver, so all those "boost" options won't do anything. Lots of tweaking for all anyway :)

To all.

I'm out most of the afternoon, so will look at compiling SkyHigh v4.2 tonight. So some variant release tonight and rest tomorrow. Respective thread OPs need updating etc.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] LuigiBull23:
Definitely! That's what I'm here for bro! As for Ktoonsified, you can also play around with "freq_step_lower_screen_on" and the "sampling_rate". Those will also definitely help with a faster scale down if that's what you're aiming for.

I believe "freq_step_lower_screen_on" is set to a 2 in this profile, which could be playing a key role in the slower ramp down aside from the thresholds. Just bump that number up and you should get the desired result.
