[MENTION=3037651]zacharias.maladroit[/MENTION] my governor shows interactive but in tha changelogs, yhu said its now in chill... Was finking it supposed to change overwall...........
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Thank you :)

When running the M-ROM the night scene photos of the camera also get quite an upgrade compared to Sony's Stock ROM, it seems (post-processing might be better).

Indeed - let's hope that this kernel release is a keeper :cowboy:

something must be interferring - if you e.g. have endurance mod or other mods adding additional init scripts that switch the governor it'll end up at interactive (or the governor used there),

can't do anything about it.

The phone is bundling modified Sony post-boot scripts, so other scripts most likely override that policy ...
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Looks like some component in the kernel might be causing higher battery consumption ...

this is really annoying ...

Like I wrote before:

usually a (supposed) requirement of the GPL is that you can build a binary equal kernel with all working (and, as effect, similar battery runtime - thus improving upon that),

the way Sony and all others are right now doing it - there might always be some kind of issue that prevents us from achieving equal, or better, battery runtime in total

I've e.g. no idea why

Sony's Stock kernel is able to achieve 2.5 hours with DSEE HX enabled on PowerAMP (with Hi-Res API)

and this kernel only 1.5 hours with the same amount of battery consumed (~ 100 mAh)

And that no matter how much or how little tweaking or changes got involved ...

this is really annoying
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] nreuge:
This is due to something you added after Logos_I.1_13_2 since this one is at least as good as stock in term of battery life
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] whalesplaho:
[MENTION=3037651]zacharias.maladroit[/MENTION] its really annoying trying to put tha best in and not achieving tha desired goals.... Buh i know yur knowledge is far beyond dis, it ll be resolved i trust yhu...

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] omerergun1123:
And while everything was going well, really big problem about the kernel occured. Device sometimes recognize USB connect to both PC or charging adapter sometimes not. Generally it gives no reaction to USB connection. Thats why I removed the kernel and turn back to other kernel that I used before, and USB conneciton is working fine. But after the solution of that problems it can be a great kernel.

Can anyone recommend me a 7.1.1 kernel for Xperia Z5 that performs well like Androplus. Unfortunately it stopped at Android 7.0 version.

Edit: I am using "Z5_SK_ENF_v32.4.A.1.54_Logos_I.1_13_15_sum" this version. No USB conneciton issue. But I dont know why it doesnt use 8 core like the "Logos_I.2_12_3_sum" one. Anyway I will be waiting for last version to be fixed.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Mason76:
How disable 2 big core!!!???
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
One guy wants full 8 cores used,

another one wants 6 cores used

in any case:

use EX Kernel Manager to control it

or do it manually via init.qcom.post_boot.sh , look for msm8994 section

there also might be things to change in init.sony.cpu_parameter.sh
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Mason76:
in ex there is no possibility to disable the kernel, this option is gone ... why it should be deleted, gradually and. What is the meaning in 4x large kernels, if they work at 800MHz
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] whalesplaho:
[MENTION=3037651]zacharias.maladroit[/MENTION] i just had a reboot now... Was using titanium backup to backup and opened theme manager to apply a theme, after applying tha phone freezes n reboots.

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] whalesplaho:

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] colorado48:
Dude just stop. Zach gave you a few more methods to activate the disabled cores in his reply. At least have the decency to actually do some reading and research before making whiny comments about how something someone else created is not up to your taste.

Perhaps if Zach made 8 cores enabled you probly would complain that ur Z5 is too hot anyway.

XDA is free, constructive feedback is good but please dont whine about the things that you are taking for granted.

Just. Stop.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Mason76:
dude you understand that on the early kernels up to 1.5.4 in ex manager was able to disable and enable all 4 large cores or 2 cores. that possibility disappeared with the release of new kernels. what for then add and fix bugs, but at the same time cut that then the phone is hot on 8 cores horror as it is a fact, on 6 cores even less can be used and the acb lives longer. dak what's the point if all the a57 ​​kernels are included, but from trotting they work at 800mhz under load and they warm the phone and eat the acb, when you can leave 2 cores a57, the performance does not change, but the acb and temperature of the device are yes and the ability to turn on \ disable the kernel was lost in the new kernels. we are all sitting in the testers stage, so here I am and say my observations on the use of kernels and telleyoga in general. if you like using a stove, please

Which's the most up to date kernel for LOS?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] omerergun1123:
Are you living USB connection problems with this version? Due to USB issue I passed to previous version.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
haha - you got a point there :)

it must be clear by now: the cores are consuming NO energy if they are idle - so it doesn't matter if they are plugged in or not, in fact hotplugging generally is disadvised since it causes issue, has inherent issue,

causes delays and doesn't work reliably any (like I wrote countless times in the past)

there are following (possible) hotplug [or cpu control] mechanisms interfering with each other

- perfd (via msm_performance or other entity)

- msm_performance

- BCL (in case of heat build-up, so there's usually no need for worry)

- core_ctl

- core_ctl + core_ctl_helper

- some others (?)

- kernel/cpu.c , threads

in the recent test builds - the following was enabled:

- msm_performance (without hotpluggin functionality)

- CPUIDLE

- kernel/cpu.c , threads -> cpu 0 (little cluster), 4 (big cluster), 0-3, 4 are constantly plugged in [otherwise it causes instabilities and this ensures lowest power consumption - this has been for a long time this way, except cores 1-3]

now if you guys are crying about keeping 4 on - it has been that way with AndroPlus and other custom kernels the same, first forcing most threads to the little cluster (0-3 cores) has allowed sigificant power savings (10-33% compared to stock)

Hello,

I installed the latest version on my 54 fw stock..

somehow, few hours ago, my sdcard is not detected by the system anymore :o

But if i boot to recovery, the sdcard is actually there and detected,

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Ara Seferian:
Anyone tried playing music on an AUX adapter?

Music pauses after few seconds.. I'm suspecting the new sound mod installed in the latest kernel since i had a similar problem when i tried messing with mixer-path file long time ago (fixed by returning stock values).

But problem solved when rolling back to old kernel.

Probably hardware limitation???
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
No, there's actually a change that is supposed to "fix" issues with AUX - that might be the cause for this "behavior"

you can flash it through fastboot

Download fastboot for Windows here:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

Make sure you install it system wide.

power off the device, hold volume down and plug it into the PC to enter fastboot

then, open command prompt in the folder with the downloaded kernel(make sure you unzip it to get the boot.img)

after that, type in fastboot flash boot boot.img

ALTERNATIVELY

you can flash recovery for the Z5

https://www.google.com/amp/s/xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/twrp-3-1-0-z5-z5c-z5p-t3571050/amp/

Feedback needed for:

stability

longterm performance/throttling

general performance (is it enough for e.g. Pokemon Go to work smoothly ?)

hotness (heating ?)
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
I have two questions

1. Is the Big core max frequency 1.5ghz or can it be adjusted back to 1958mhz?

2. Will it always behave like an 808 or after a certain load it turns on the last two cores?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Like written in the changelog it's hardcoded

little cluster max frequency restricted to 1.63 GHz (overclocked)

BIG cluster max frequency restricted to 1.53 GHz (underclocked), hardcoded

so no changes can be made without re-compiling the kernel,

I was originally going with Zombie-Kernel's and OM5Z-Kernel's approach which could be changed later on,

but it wasn't truly restricting, e.g. Kernel Adiutor would seemingly ignore it.

cpuinfo recognizes a quadcore, but the hotplug mechanism has a maximum of 6 cores defined,

there's the possibility to revert these changes (max frequency locked) and enable 8 cores,

but if the phone starts to throttle after a short amount of time it's kind of stupid (e.g. Pokemon Go, 4K Video recording, etc.)

Also what's the purpose to have the highest benchmark score in Antutu, Geekbench, etc. which is a peak performance state,

if that cannot be sustained in the long run,

and as soon as the CPU throttles the performance collapses to 50% of the max ?

Games and other apps DO NOT WORK in that state :mad:

Little cores is at 1.63 GHz and big cores are at 1.53 GHz, which should resemble the snapdragon 820 (Lite) as close as possible,

accounting for the difference in 20nm vs. 14 nm architecture,

there's the option to e.g. enable the little cores all the time + 4 additional BIG cores (in essence resembling MSM_PERFORMANCE + CORE_CTL behavior),

but why not give this a try ?

There's certainly room for improvement and changes
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] RyTekk:
Zach has nearly removed those clocks upper 1.5GHz in dtsi, it's really hardcode :laugh:, before he just restricted via msm_performance. But I noticed that when my emmc_therm got over 52.6 Celcius, it means thorrlting now is working with profile 1.5GHz and turn off 2 cores of big cluster, but the temperature doesn't stop raising, it even went over 60 Celcius (just do install 30 apps via Play Store). You should take a test like this.

P/s: on my kernel

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] s.hossein:
Where is the 253 kernel?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Alessandro2553:
Why no .253 kernel? I'm test your kernel..
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
yeah,

in this HIMA implementation the big and little cores seemingly are reversed,

I wanted to hear it from you and also did some testing.

If you're gaming, etc. all the time it might work well,

but for other tasks it's clearly overkill and draining the battery (even listening to music) :p

will need something else ...

Thanks
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Because .253 and .224 kernels can work with either version
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
well, using a .253 kernel on .224 firmware got the boot animation interrupted,

so there could be other things that might break.

But in theory it should work :)

Regarding HIMA: it seems Kernel Adiutor (or HIMA itself ?) just reports the opposite, meaning:

big cores are reported as little

and little cores are reported as big,

if that makes sense.

Okay, [MENTION=5627933]androidexpert35[/MENTION] also wrote something about the little cores overheating (which in theory doesn't really make sense),

so little core overclocking isn't perhaps that great (well, a user requested it for the Z4/Z3+), governor should be made more aggressive and hotplug mechanism perhaps only must be tweaked a little

but I have been told before: do not follow every change that users want otherwise you'll get a monster kernel that does everything but NOT properly :P
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] RyTekk:
I even rewrite thermal-engine to restrict little cluster to 1.4GHz at 52 C but the temperature still goes to 61 C, so OC little cluster is OK, it seems we can't improve a lot in software/code level.
