[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] shaanyt:
I just checked, we should probably change back to balanced mode. I tried gaming using balanced and performance, balanced actually uses a bit less power, seeing as the temperature rise is lower.

I played horizon chase for 20minutes on each settings, waited for it to cool down, then tested again.

On performance mode --> 39.9 C after 20 minutes of gaming

On balanced mode --> 37.3 C after 20 minutes of gaming. ( <-- proof of using less power right here, to me at least)

On a separate experiment, i just used my phone (normal use like instagram, facebook, whatsapp, messenger, chrome) for 15 minutes, each mode *****And by USE, i mean i pointlessly scroll here there and everywhere, then switch apps like nobody's business.

-On performance mode --> sure, the

LITTLE

cores are not "stuck" at 1305MHz, but the

big

cores are being used a lot. Performance mode seems to tell the kernel to send work to big cores to speed things up, so the

big

cores are >400MHz for about 50% of the 15 mintues, i checked using frequency table.

-On balanced mode --> yes, the CPU section of kernel aduitor shows

LITTLE

stuck at 1305MHz. But if you pay attention to frequency table, the

LITTLE

cores are actually NOT STUCK. They actually move around. I tried 15 minutes, and it shows that

LITTLE

cores can change frequency, and during use, it stays about 50% of the time at 400MHz. Plus, at balanced mode, the

big

cores are used less, only about 10% of the time big cores go above 400MHz (which is 5 times less than in performance mode, more power efficient i would say, the

LITTLE

cores are good enough, no need to send work to

big

cores).

So i recommend that we go back to BALANCED mode for the best battery life and less heat generation (which is usually a sign of energy use) during use. It seems that the LITTLE cores are not actually stuck, but something is causing kernel adiutor to be NOT ABLE to read the frequency of the cores in real time, so, it shows us "stuck". But in reality, the cores (according to frequency table) are adjusting their frequencies correctly.

Additonal info --> try changing your I/O scheduler to ROW, it makes the UI very much smoother.

Why do we need to flash those separate radio files, no other room requires to do that? How will I jump to other room is those radios are flashed?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Archit9169:
This is the rom built from the official source while santhosh uses his own source. Besides the support for this rom is more than that of santhosh.

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 PM ----------

If you open the zip file, you will notice the firmware update folder. This rom is built from official source and thus it does not contain those files. Banmeifyouwant provided them seperately for better reception and everything. Whe the official build would be release it would probably contain firmware update folder too.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] aabenroi:
if you have non-working things then you need to flash the file, if everything works then why fix something ain't broken?

it's because the radio didn't work for some guys, so need to change the radio to more compatible one

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Archit9169:
Build Date - 20160626 - fixed and re uploaded

1. Gps fast and accurate. If this is not fast, then i don't know what is. Working in all modes, ie battery saving, device only, high. All three modes are fast and accurate, as fast and accurate that they can be.

2. A little optimized.

Bugs:

1. When camera mode is set to rear, launching camera from lock screen tends to restart the mobile. Double click the power button also ends in the same result. Workaround for this is set camera to front mode, then everything works fine and it can be launched from lock screen either way.

2. Bluetooth address is wrong, but it doesn't matter that much, aside from that it works fine, Bluetooth headset also working fine.

3. It doesn't detect the headphone, although the audio is routed to it and it works perfectly, but the matter remains, the devices acts as there is no headphone attached. But it also is not that big deal, as long as it can be used to listen songs no body cares.

4. Su icons shows on the status bar, even though the app using the su is closed.

5. The armv53 cores appears to be stuck at 1305 mhz, although they are not. I guess that it has trouble reading core's information.

6. The default governor state is performance, just set it to interactive via kernel auditor.

Everything else seems fine, remind me if i forgot something to include in it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] aabenroi:

Nope,,, it might be something wrong with your device / provider.

I confirm LTE works perfectly using Telkomsel in borneo (kalimantan) and Digi in sarawak Malaysia.

Your radio firmware might be 3g locked because Indonesia regulation does not allow this phone to run 4g officially.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Archit9169:
Yup. As long as you do not flash emmc aboot mbn file, your bootloader will remain same. If you have trouble relating to signal or something, download the radio package and flash it.

Heads up - The radio package contains emmc aboot mbn file, so if you just want to flash modem, copy nonhlos file and flashing it using fastboot

fastboot flash modem non-hlos.mbn
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] banmeifyouwant:
Unofficial unlock is not exists.

There are different way to unlock, but non of them unofficial.

a) You can use userdebug bootloader. (Like everyone do who uses my radio blobs...)

b) You can use user bootloaders that you can unlock via an rsa singned token response. (The unlock tool that you can download from xiaomi's page does that for you.)

It doesn't matter how you flashes the zip it will work for you. :cool:

Did a dirty flash of TheStrix's 20160627 build. Governor is now interactive from the start, gps is very fast, 2 seconds for inhouse gps fix.

I guess the cm13 bluetooth media button bug still persists, but with the known workaround it's no problem. Mobile Data still works with SIM1, though a wipe may be needed to test, if it still needs to be initialized by SIM slot 2.

No other issues so far :)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] shaanyt:
That won't really help, plugging the cores on/off uses power as well. Nothing comes free. Battery life is mostly dependent on what apps you use. And what permissions you grant. For me, battery life is the same as MIUI for the most parts.

Take a look at privacy guard, revoke access to "keep awake" & "start at boot" for apps that don't need it. For example, chrome wants to keep awake and start at boot, it is a god damn browser, revoke that permission, it doesnt need to start at boot or keep awake. Other messaging apps, actually, most, want Keep Awake and Start At boot, you can block keep awake, but dont stop start at boot, otherwise you might not get notifications. Generally speaking, i would say Keep Awake is a permission that only important system / google apps+services need.

By the way, if you have something like location services on, then that might be source of battery drain. MIUI has that battery saving thingy (Off, Standard, Advanced... remember?) that stops apps from requesting location / or at least limits how many times they can request within a certain time, as long as the apps are minimized. In this ROM, however, they would mostly have free reign and just suck the battery outta your phone.

Maybe that's worth mentioning in the opening post? It's a confirmed CM13 Bug an not exclusively related to the redmi note 3.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] I9000bramgmail:
Well, be it as that may, we rarely use our 6 cores, in most use cases when the display is off the A72 cores can both be turned off and half the A53's would suffice.

Even when using the phone the A72 rarely get loaded, let alone both of them. that's only in gaming scenario's. So hotplugging would definetly be beneficial for everyone except the one rare user who only games and never lets the phone in standby...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] aabenroi:
I've done those privacy guard things and it help when we're mostly on standby mode.

If we're very active user, but just use the phone for light use lile browsing, social things, video/music playback. Trust me, the hotplug thinggy is best features of all.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] shaanyt:
Hotplugging isn't efficient because it isnt smart enough to tell if you need it. If humans can't predict the weather correctly, how can an algorithm be expected to correctly predict what workload is coming next, or what core it needs to wake for the "predicted" workload, the cores would just randomly wake up and turn back off, which i've seen on my Xperia Z. I've had better battery life on that old phone when all cores are always on. This is actually why some newer devices, don't use hotplug anymore. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62688907&postcount=62

Also, when the screen is off (as in not in use), the CPUs are at idle. That's why you see a "deep sleep" in frequency tables of whatever cpu monitoring apps. When in use though, the cores, both big and LITTLE are at their minimum when they are not needed, CPU power usage increases EXPONENTIALLY as frequency increases, so, at minimum, you arent really wasting that much energy, in fact, you might just be wasting less energy compared to when the hotplug governor decides to randomly plug them in/out a few times within a few seconds when you touch the screen / scroll something. Why? Because a task you have for the CPU to do isnt continuous, as in, after the CPU gets plugged in, it does something, then it plugs out when waiting for something, then plugs back in to continue, imagine how many random times that could happen.

In fact, if you pay attention to the frequency table, even when all 6 cores are on, and you play a game. You'll realize that if you play GAME for X minutes, the big cores arent really doing much. In fact, they stay at minimum of 400MHz for more than half of the whole time. It's the GPU that does most of the work during gaming.

So, i'm still sticking with my viewpoint that onlining all cores all the time is better than having a hotplug driver "trying to make smart decisions". Because, it just cannot do that smartly/efficiently.

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 PM ----------

Nope. Hotplug just isnt smart enough to know when to do what. And it will never be smart enough. We humans can't even predict the weather. The moment you scroll that browser, the CPU cores will go ON and OFF like crazy thinking "maybe i need to be on, oh, nope, good bye, oh wait, you need me, i'm back". Not to mention when it's processing something, it can still go off while waiting... So it'll be ON, process, wait, off, ON, repeat... So you're losing power there.

Here, have a read, it's a different kernel for a different device, but the same logic applies http://hc-kernel.blogspot.my/2015/06/nexus-6-zen-or-mako.html
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Archit9169:
The dev will son be publishing new flashable zip which will unlock B20, as he mentioned in earlier post. So here are ways to make backup. Go to extreme precautions, as this is efs and imei we are talking about and they can be pretty hard to fix.

1. Backup EFS using twrp.

2. Use QCN utility to backup EFS in QCN file.

3. Use terminal emulator to backup efs and imei.

su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/sdcard/modemst1
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 of=/sdcard/modemst2
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 of=/sdcard/fsg

To restore the backup

fastboot flash modemst1 modemst1
fastboot flash modemst2 modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg

Edit: I tested it. It is working. What i did...

fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot erase fsg

Lost my imei, wifi add, bluetooth add (See sreenshots in attachment). Then

fastboot flash modemst1 modemst1
fastboot flash modemst2 modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg

And voila, everything back to normal.
