Well, in MY particular case I'm not because i keep a pretty constant watch on my device, plus if I'm not actively benching I've got her throttled back to like 1800 anyway, so overheating is never really a problem...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Ah well as long as its cpu is kept at close watch i wouldn't want my cpu or gpu over heating i had a bad experience on a g3 that overheated the cpu and went to a permanent sleep forever may god rest its cores currently testing a new setup with -75 mv across both the A57 and A53 cores seems stable enough but time will tell
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
God rest his cores *ahem* amen ::headbow::

I reflashed this kernel with Loco's rom after updating to the latest firmware. My stats are doing good so far for my first day but I'll get a better feel for them tomorrow.

UC A57 core to 1704mhz

UC A53 to 1104mhz

Undervolt both cores -75 didn't touch GPU at all

Turbo mode enabled.

Sorry for double posts guys dont know whats going on
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve97ta:
I had to charge already since I've got to travel this evening but it was 61% remaining. 8hrs 20mins on the phone. with 2hrs 42 mins screen on time. Didn't want to post a screen shot and get flamed since it is now plugged in. Amazing that the device is still fast and runs games with no issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Even with our cpus throttled back they're still fast! I find that i like to use turbo mode with all the multicore stuff on battery profile and enabled except for hmp little packing (since turbo mode swaps the big cores for the little ones which is why the UI runs so sweet and smooth with it, and i don't want to pack everything into the big cores cuz that'll just hurt my battery life, so i leave the hmp little packing disabled :) I'll post some screens, i just charge my battery so often and sporadically from using the hotspot so much that it's hard to get battery stats to post that aren't being subjected to extreme usage smh lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CanMan1:
I just tested power aware scheduling in PCMark, and it has no effect on battery life or performance with turbo. So you can leave it on, but I don't think it will have an practical benefit

I posted an excel workbook earlier that removes the voltage lines in a few clicks, and no one downloaded it last I checked. There have been many posts about the this issue that could be resolved quite easily.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Лithium-Фusion:
I saw it but honestly didnt need, im a bit selfish and too lazy. Restoring w/o voltages not problem for me. Someone who has lower asv needs to use it for himself(herself, if there is a woman here, lol, never thought about it)..

I just saw your second sentence. Prop tweaks are related with init.d, I guess so. I remove all init.d tweaks, then needed to remove them from prop. Actually dont believe the twin-turbo issue related with it. You guys will think that im crazy :D but a57's high frequencies are in use these days on mine.. Even in fully default settings. I screwed up somewhere but couldnt find where. Anyway, I dont feel that can flash something, restoring data, etc, ilness :crying:

If 10 people have to remove the voltage lines themselves, and this takes 2min longer each, then that's 20min of other people's time vs 2min of your time used. I see that as inefficient sharing :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Лithium-Фusion:
If I learn how to remove volts and do it by myself then share it as 'ready to go', no one will try and learn it.. So, I push them have less knowledge.. And I 'sacrifice' myself and give them a chance to learn 'how to remove voltage lines' ~ I guess I just wasting someone's brilliant time who reads this post right now..

Whatever man, Im off until having an S7 edge plus... Good lucks .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Get well soon buddy i think we wont be seeing much of each other on the threads until note 6[emoji13] your twin turbo profile is a good setup man since you and your note 5 are not feeling well i hope the both of you get well soon

I am sorry because I am new with undervolt and adjust Synapse setting.

Can you please tell me how to import your profile to Synapse? or I have to do it manually?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Might want to refer that question to [MENTION=6980302]CanMan1[/MENTION] its his work that made the automation with voltage removal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
I have used this setting but when I press restart synapse and click X, I check in profile, it says "non" profile and "non" selected restore profile, it does not change anything. I try to clear data and reboot synapse but impossible, please help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Select profile first and then [emoji736] apply profile then restart synapse then [emoji735] it will give none on selected profile just to make sure change you take a snap shot of voltages before and after you select and apply profile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] UpInTheAir:
That's how is meant to be. If your changes are applied, then you're all good ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] supermedo:
Any way to improve standby battery life? Mine is pretty bad. I'm on v4.4
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
Dear [MENTION=6980302]CanMan1[/MENTION], I am using your turbo profile (1.0.0_Ktoonservative_Turbo-Battery.txt), however, when I restart the phone, it lag a lot. Am I lack of any setting? Please advice. Thank you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Lol turbo profile seems to have allot of bugs im going to take it down try this one its much better and proven https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8Ps-jVB8IblZkRnZ3dlcEQ3UE0/view?usp=docslist_api ill take down turbo my apologies
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
I have never seen any supporter "fast and furious" like you, mate ;) Thanks a lot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Awww thanks mate we are all here to help please don't forget to tell us how the machine profile goes for you [emoji4]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
It seems better :p Thank you. May I ask does this profile give good battery performance?

In addition, do I have to adjust any more settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Its supposed to balanced between battery and performance but mostly battery other setting just make sure your voltages are good on your cpu and gpu or if you asv is 9 and above you should be safe
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
Sorry for disturbing you, but what is "asv"? How can I see it?

How do I know my voltages will be good on CPU and GPU?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
It should be the last tab in synapse if you tell me where it says asv bin or post a screen shot i can tell if the voltages are good for your cpu or too low they wont be be high and cause damage but they might be too low and cause your device to be unstable
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
As your requirement, please check the screenshot I attach below and give advice. I will be so thankful :o
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Ok your very safe your asv is very good you can even reduce it even more
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
Thanks for your useful information. :good:

One more question, do I have to run synapse manually whenever I restart the phone? or just let it and synapse will automatically perform?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Well no you don't have to if you left the 2 minutes safety on then after 2 minutes it will apply profile if you removed the two minutes safety it will apply on boot as long as you left apply on boot on i forgot it a few times :o stupid me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] supermedo:
Thank you, here it is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Aaaaah buddy i don't currently have synapse im on android 6.0.1 but i went through your profile and it's completely stock you have done absolutely nothing to it so you can change multi core to battery from default and change interactive governor a57 to battery and a53 to battery and on multi core shut down your max core to 6 and undervolt your soc by -25 mv (4steps) and if you want more power saving underclock cpu A57 to 1704ghz and a53 to 1.2ghz and that should be an ultimate battery profile might lag a little but nothing too bad i would have built a profile for you but i don't have synapse or even synapse support
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gilliantpham:
oh thank you very much. One more question and I will not disturb you more :D

whenever I open synapse, it appears X and "Yes" tick, which one do I have to click on?

P/s: thank you for making my day :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] supermedo:
Actually they are set to battery, the only thing I didn't do is undervolting because it just seems too complicated :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Actually on you profile everything is set to default

great battery life and speed

thanks

---------- Post added at 02:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ----------

I think i mixed it with someone elses profile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CanMan1:
That's [MENTION=6311359]muffinsmuffy[/MENTION] profile that I reposted with a different name. See below

Is this your fixed ktoonservative profile? If so, I'll benchmark it and possibly do a work battery life test.

[MENTION=3511708]UpInTheAir[/MENTION] already optimized the kernel defaults for standby battery. If your using the advanced and network defaults, then there's not much else you can do with the kernel.

I made a post about improving standby time. If you can't find it, I'll try looking. I think it's linked in this thread, and posted in SkyHigh kernel thread.

These tweaks won't help standby battery much since it's mostly dependent on increasing deep sleep time. The battery settings also reduce performance quite a bit without improving battery:

PCMark work battery life:

7.2_Battery-Multicore-Gov-Boost_Temp.txt

Score: 4304

Battery life: 8h50m

7.1 Universal Defaults

Score: 4853

Battery life: 8h37m

Based on my testing, I think the screen power consumption is the reason for not seeing much battery improvement from synapse settings. But I need to do some calculations to confirm. I've finished measuring the impact of brightness on battery life, so you'll soon be able to see its effect on power consumption.

It's fairly simple if you want it to be. Set all HPM voltage to 0. Then decrease all voltages for one component at a time by 2 steps (12.5mV). Once it's unstable (run stress tests), increase voltage back up 2 steps. For more stability, increase HPM voltage linearly with component voltage.

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

[MENTION=6311359]muffinsmuffy[/MENTION] Overall I think the battery tweaks you suggested (other than UV) are more harmful than helpful for performance/battery. Turning on power saving is probably more effective:

Turbo with power saving on:

Score 5740

Battery 8h11m

Turbo no power saving

Snow 6279

Battery 7h

Performance/Battery tip:

Turn on Turbo and power saving mode for close to default battery and improved responsiveness. See my results above.

A lot of the questions on this thread are redundant, so I'll be creating a FAQ on my upcoming PCMark comparison thread to answer them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 954wrecker:
I didn't want to mention it since you guys seem to have so much fun dialing everything in. I've been loving the results from just stock settings with turbo enabled and powersaving mode for a long time.

All thanks go to the kernel king UpInTheAir and tdunham for the MOAR rom for the sprint note 5
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] supermedo:
Turbo mode indeed is fun and very smooth, after trying it I just can't go back to normal settings. But unfortunately I'm worried about excessive use of full CPU speeds when not necessary thus deteriorating battery life. Why can't we have great battery life while having a buttery smooth UI?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] beohn1102:
anyone guide me what this error?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] n0ve:
Dammm time to start from scratch if your tweakinf and undervolting but cant immediately tell what that is...good luck :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CanMan1:
If you had mentioned it earlier, I would have confirmed your results with PCMark instead of me posting about it now. But it's great that you can confirm my findings instead

Anyone know exactly what Power Saving mode does?

We can, see my PCMark results. And remember that faster processing (higher frequencies) means that the phone can race to idle faster.

---------- Post added at 09:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 PM ----------

If anyone has suggestions for what they want to see tested in PCMark for Android, reply to this post. I already finished screen brightness, turbo, defaults, UV vs No UV, UpInTheAir battery tips (all at once), UpInTheAir performance tips (all at once), GPU UC min + A57 UC min, =14 total. Currently I'm only testing on 4.2.

Which rom are you using let me guide you

---------- Post added at 06:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 AM ----------

Benchmarks are great but don't tell the whole story example im chatting to someone using a texts and my cpu is ramped up 2.1ghz for no reason using turbo thats just silly and a waste of power having a profile like turbo is fine for those short burst usage patterns but say im on my phone all day checking emails texts whatsapp watching youtube and can keeo my cpu using minimum frequency required using say one of my profiles the one with noticeable effect is the machine profile that was Konstantines instructions he told me my cpu upscales max frequency why ? And i had an idea made the profile and well its seems to be perfect and according to other users it had the same effect might. Yet if you test it on PCMark it give you a completely different results PCMark is exactly the same as antutu very inaccurate results all the time im not arguing but from my experience benchmarks never give the full picture
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] muffinsmuffy:
Its nothing to worry about mate you just tweaked interactive governor while you were using ktoonservative if you want to tweak interactive governor (those tabs you tried changing) you have to switch back to interactive from ktoonservative and restart synapse but remember if you do that my profile will no longer be active an it will go to default interactive setup but its nothing to worry about you can apply the profile again and you will be back to the same setup and all good

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] UpInTheAir:
Ok muffin, you can probably get back to tweaking again tomorrow ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CanMan1:
I'm aware of this, and it will be discussed in a "limitations" sectionn of my upcoming thread. I encourage others to post valid criticisms so I can inform readers of them in the limitations section.

2100MHz uses ~26% more power than 1900, yet is only ~10% faster. As expected, when the CPU max frequency is under clocked to 1704MHz (power saving mode), efficiency and battery life improve.

If you understood how PCMark works and what it tests, you would see that's is very different from Antutu. To say they're exactly the same shows your misunderstanding of the benchmark, and I sense a general misunderstanding of the purpose of benchmarks. They are mainly useful for relative comparisons, and "real world" benchmarks aim to give results that are representative to what you'd experience.

PCMark results are accurate for the device setup that it's run on if you follow the instructions. The work battery life results are accurate to ~1% based my results, which shows that the test is very precise and repeatable. The results will never be representative of every device as there are many variables that affect results. This is why good tech reviewers cover their test setup and methodology, and they use multiple benchmarks and explain the results.

Without benchmarks, we would have no way of measuring how changes affect real world performance. Those changes might have a negligible effect in the real world or might do more harm than good (PC example: Memory scaling on different microarchitectures). Of course, benchmark results should always be explained by theory and/or observation.

The benefit of increased battery life depends entirely on whether you will actually be able to use it. Since you won't be able to increase battery life more than 50% (estimated, brightness dependant), you might be better off buying an external battery in certain situations.

Lastly, it's up to the user to decide what's best for their situation.

Some examples of thorough testing:

http://www.anandtech.com/show/7364/memory-scaling-on-haswell

https://web.archive.org/web/2015021...iquidlab.org/2013/05/07/fan-testing-round-12/

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/msi-afterburner-undervolt-radeon-r9-fury,4425.html

Once you've read over 100 them, these limitations will become obvious.

Click the X. But you only needed to enable Turbo, so restoring a profile was unnecessary.

Standby drain probably caused by your apps, not the kernel if you haven't changed the advanced or network settings of synapse. Reducing drain involves increasing deep sleep time

I honestly can not wait

---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:27 PM ----------

ah no i said they are great but the don't give the whole picture due to inaccurate results real life results are almost impossible to determine by a benchmark usage patterns change daily even if i kept the same pattern for a week say when im the office and other week when in the field (im a real estate agent by day) today i found myself watching hours of youtube if were i using a governor that upscales my A57 cores to max frequency under little load it would have murdered my battery in minutes those frequency in between 800mhz and 1704mhz are there for a reason if the cpu were to scale to 1704mhz (just using 1.7ghz as a base) under normal to little loud say for example i set cpu to ignore upscale steps and set it to ignore all steps in between it reduce latency give better performance but isn't ideal for the battery but its doable from within kt gov give the exact reaction as interactive even keep cores online without hot plug like interactive and increase sample rate to keep scanning for load and off load that will get things done extremely fast without latency lag at all but will have an extremely negative effect on the battery and within minutes you will see your battery drain extremely high while the screen is on but say i dont allow cpu to scale max frequency using a lower voltage at lower frequencies will improve battery and reduce sampling rate will add slight lag when using the device and will improve battery dramatically these are my personal experience from testing playing around with governors since note 3 still had ondemand as a default and hotplugged cpus when they were not as efficient as todays cpu i didnt use any benchmarks as my only source of information but read up on how different setups effects cpus in different usage environments and had some experience before i went around tweaking here and there id say you would need to test a device to get the most accurate results personally with exact same usage patterns i think its impossible but me seeing improved battery life with a certain setup and someone tells me no because my benchmark app says otherwise and i know its correct is just weird anyway by no means am i an expert but i can say i know what i know might be wrong might be right but these are my findings [emoji16]
