Hello helpful and kind people ^^ I'm sorry if this post is a little "off" but I always get lost in the xda forums and this kernel seems pretty interesting xD

anyways, I'm using CM13 + OctoDex kernel (really good kernel btw), but I want to "clean" all my phone data and install a new ROM + Kernel to achieve !performance!, I really don't care about battery life, temperature etc, I just want gaming performance out of my ze551ml ^^

I have two questions:

1) How do I delete everything, so I can flash a new ROM without residual stuff?

2) Can you suggest me a good ROM + Kernel combo (targeting performance) ?

P.S. again, sorry if its a little off, but I read several topics and pages and still had to ask ^^

You mean the vulkan api??
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Right. Sayeed preparing to kang Fugu implementation of it for our gpu. It seems it might work. Maybe..
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BohArie:
can anyone tell me how to install this kernel??
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] dcduartee:
Just flash the zip on twrp
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BohArie:
already done that bro.. but got error status 2
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] dcduartee:
That's a joke from the developer. Kernel is installed
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BohArie:
Really?? Hahaha thanks bro..
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] dcduartee:
I was just like you when I first flashed this xD
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] zanitos1991:
Any news at all? Vulcan, new los, did you fix GPU problem? Any big plans? Sorry don't know how to read gerit
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pomka78:
GPU problem? what is problem?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Not much time. School started back again. Still halfway through the stuff. Vulkan is put on hold. Gpu still needs work. Implementing blur in new LinOS & rebasing.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] deksman2:
I installed this kernel with Beanstalk (Android 7.1).

Since then, the battery life did improve but I experienced random slow downs in games and overall system performance (delayed response times, etc).

Is this because the kernel is not a good fit for Beanstalk (nougat version) or something else?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
This is because of the Gpu thing I was talking about. Please read the thread & think before posting.

All this should be fixed in v4k6. Hopefully
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] C-Ph87:
Even if I set the max frequency to 2333mHz or 2000mHz the cores 3 and 4 keeps rising to 2416mHz dont matter which gov I choose.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ee99161:
Hey nutcasev. Any news on when you will release the updated kernel?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
I have told multiple times to not use KA. Works fine here.

As for the 4k6, do you want the gpu tweaks or should I release it. It works good.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ee99161:
GPU tweaks? Anything awesome or what? If it makes no significant diference, release it :).
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Undervolting. All freqs work. Dynamic scaling
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ee99161:
Well, I see what you are saying. It will always be your call. ?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] C-Ph87:
The OC still happens with KAM specially with hotplug governor.

it only affects cores 3 and 4 when they get online after some time offline.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Technical:
I'm not sure what I've done wrong but HoloN does not flash (error 2).

HoloLite works.

I'm on Z00AD (ZE551ML). Also, it has inbuild Kernel Adiutor and I can't find the folder to copy the profiles.

If anyone could help me... Thanks.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] dcduartee:
There is no error. That's a joke from the developer. The kernel installed

wat i read his post as legit asking you for advice with mildly broken english but i may be wrong. don't throw the radio into the bath water just yet bud, you're one of the few people whose posts i look forward to reading, I've learned a great deal from them.

ps CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Sh4rpi3:
Yeah, I'll probably use your profile. Been having trouble enabling the profile in kernel adiutor but I saw you posted a how to video so I'll try that out.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
I belive he was being sarcastic. I don't get who you are referring in your post. Is it me?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] krasCGQ:
Sorry...

If you find one of my posts is unexpectedly different than what I should, it actually refers on my mood.

Unlike everyone here on XDA (cmiiw), I've a very troubled personal life; that affects my mood, caused I'm being too sensitive, and could get mad and drop at various events without a valid reason.

If I post sarcastic comments, more likely that my sensitive mode is on.

I'm a hopeless, useless, worthless, and troublemaker according to most of my friends. I feel isolated at the most, even on a crowded situation. If I'm allowed to make a wish, I wish that I want to die in a proper, legal way.

I wiped out my previous post because I carelessly post it without even checking your kernel repo. [MENTION=7074010]nutcasev1.5[/MENTION]
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ephexxis:
Yeah i thought you were asking him for what he would do in the situation and just picked an overly aggressive idiom to lead with (spending so much time on xda really has a way of making you check your initial reaction to certain phrases lol)

---------- Post added at 06:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 AM ----------

Yeah see i didn't think you were being sarcastic your post was too extreme, like this one. relax bud. like i said before i value you and your contributions. if it makes you feel better (it won't if I'm right about what kind of guy you are but i digress) I'm technically living out of my car right now because housing is so insanely expensive where i live (Silicon valley, go figure, right?). there's plenty of other stuff that i won't go into here but suffice to say i know about some troubled personal life, let me tell ya.

but reading your infornative feedback has been genuinely helpful to me in a few different cases. and when you consider that im (i would consider myself anyways) a senior member of the arise sound systems team, you could even say that imparting useful knowledge to me helps the thousands of people who follow us and use our mods as well. so go see a doctor man, depression is totally treatable. and your presence is valued here.

cheers.

ps THIS IS MY LAST RESORT
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] saldymhmd:
Hello, entire last post is spammed with personal problems. Can we just forget it and go ahead with kernel development? Thanks.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ephexxis:
little insensitive to call my attempt to relate to another human being who is clearly struggling emotionally, "spam" don't you think?

are you a human being? furthermore, let's stop pretending like "we" are all gonna head on back to the ole' workstation and compile the next version of the kernel for entitled and inconsiderate users like yourself to consome with reckless abandon at no cost. i think the entire exchange lasted 4 posts, just ****ing don't read it if it upsets you so much that I'd try to make someone feel welcome and valued here. god forbid the zf2 forums become populated by unhelpful and unpleasant people such as yourself.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Coming withing 7 days. Next build will have 2 iterations.

V2r3 & V2b3

I have already posted the settings in text a few pages back. Please search the thread.

It's the kernel Linux version. Current is 102. 103 seems much smoother. & I was just trying to make him feel better. Not furthering a conversation.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] aryan531:
guyzz...long time no updates??

and nutcase says it gonna release 4k6 ...what about 4k5 ..did i miss it :confused:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ee99161:
Yeah, long time since the latest updates. Still waiting for the new and much improved version of the kernel. I don't think you are confused, he jumped one version. LOL
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Steven Chen:
Holo Kernel can be installed on Lineage OS 14 for ZE551ML

I find that although the installation of Holo Kernel by TWRP will show red words "failed", but the kernel really installed successfully! It runs smoothly on Lineage OS, even the screen structure function works well~
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Its just a prank by the developer, reboot the phone, kernel is successfully installed;)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
I'm thinking about transitioning to Slim7, anyone has feedback on this kernel with that rom?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ee99161:
I'm using Slim7, but i'm waiting on the new update for the kernel to give it a test run.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Yeah. That's probably this weekend. I got 4 days.

It's complicated but I'm trying to implement scaling in Gpu. Automatic scaling. We will have to see tho. It will be modeled on cpu freq min timer.

Basically, Gpu will scale when the Cpu does.

Will remove in next version.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Can't wait for v4k6...:D
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
[MENTION=7074010]nutcasev1.5[/MENTION]

Can you explain me what Power Suspend exactly does here?

Does it suspend only when the phone is in deepsleep?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Basically its doze on the kernel level. Shuts all drivers down until some kind of event from kernel or OS makes it come into early suspend state where it only runs things that need to be running to perform the task. Then it alternates to between the 2. Then it wakes everything up when the OS screen is initialized.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Also will battery improve in v4k6?

I have switched to your kernel with Unofficial LOS, hoping that idle battery drain will fix...

Applied your Battery profile, just changed power suspend to userspace, Since i read somewhere in this thread that lcd panel suspend mode drains battery rather than saving it.

Am I right?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
I read somewhere that TheSSJactive has hotplugging support, but i didn't noticed it, does it activate when screen off?

Does it really reduce idle battery drain, i mean any noticeable change?

P.S:I am using Battery profile in KAM.

I did't noticed much lag with Battery profile in Unofficial LOS14.1 while i experienced it in Official, looks like magic!:cool:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Not by much. I think. I'm still not running anything that I made with the Gpu. Userspace is basically going to break functionality.

Should not drain battery.

Yes. It's considerably better since I upgraded it to N interactive base in v4.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] C-Ph87:
[MENTION=7877888]rb_rasekar[/MENTION] there's a guide that is very useful to help you adjust the the settings for each governor: http://androidmodguide.blogspot.com.br/p/blog-page.html?m=1
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
I have read it already!;)

Btw thanks...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
With battery profile:

Yes, there is something wrong here...will try again today...;)

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] iqbal_mahmuda:
Don't remove it, it's actually funny, and it has been an identity of this kernel. But, later put some notice in the post so newcomers doesn't get confused.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] krasCGQ:
Maybe "exit 255" will be the best. :laugh:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
In v4k4, do LCD Panel Power Suspend mode drain battery when idle?

It Userspace a better alternative?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Actually its not really iconic of this kernel. I got the idea from my mentor Sayeed. His didn't give a full error tho.

[MENTION=5576048]iqbal_mahmuda[/MENTION] It's already there. In the downloads section. There is a big red Error 2 troubleshooting guide there. Why don't people use it. Idk.

I'm seeing no drain here. It's good so far. Running test 4k5 for 2 weeks now. Smooth af
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] iqbal_mahmuda:
Will it fix lag issues in latest AICP build? Is it 4k6 or 5
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
I skipped 4k5. Release will be 4k6. Most probably yes.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] iqbal_mahmuda:
BTW I still can't find error 2 troubleshoot guide, I checked it just now :silly:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Huge battery drain even with LCD Panel suspend mode...though userspace consumes more than LCD:(

This is with aggressive doze(Naptime)...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Don't use aggressive doze apps. I have said it 5 billion times. It conflicts with the Inbuilt doze light functionality & gives wakelocks.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Okay:)

Will try idle drain test tonight again without Naptime...

As you mentioned earlier that maple io has source code access to power suspend...

So is maple a better choice than tripndroid?

Will it drain more battery?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Maple has rather poor performance in zf2. So not recommended.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] iqbal_mahmuda:
is f2fs fully supported in any partition? will be there any bugs?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
[MENTION=7074010]nutcasev1.5[/MENTION]

Idle battery drain is more without Naptime...see screenshot.

You might know Naptime is made by recognised developer franciscofranco, it had gone through many updates and it is stable...

Atleast for me it significantly reduces idle draining :)

PS: I think your kernel does not work flawlessly with Sayeed's builds, since on Official ones it works better compartively.;)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Screenshot:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pomka78:
Yes! It supported,but why you need this fs? Its Fs made by Samsung, but no one Samsung phones have preinstalled this. Besause its not for pfones!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Mkkt Bkkt:
Why? ?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pomka78:
Our flash controller is too slow for F2FS. Only SSD disks see you better performance in compare of EXT4.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] krasCGQ:
Really? OnePlus 3/3T has f2fs instead of ext4 as default file system out-of-the-box!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
The UV works. I got random reboots & freezes. Once that is solved then nothing remaining. It will good.

Don't expect to anytime soon. Sayeed is not willing to share sources for anything that goes into his Unofficial builds. So nothing I can do there.

We don't have a UFS chip for Nand.

Can you add intelliactive governor?

When i was on Octodex kernel, with intelliactive governor, deep sleep was best compared to all other governors:fingers-crossed:

Also, it almost fixed idle draining and android os battery drain...

Not in 4k6. Later. I need to finalize this version first.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:

-Some Lags

-No any improvement in battery life, even with kam battery profile, it drains more than stock kernel...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
I'm seeing very good things about this kernel, i have only one question, is it compatible with SuperSU to have root, or do i need Magisk?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
[MENTION=7074010]nutcasev1.5[/MENTION] i sent you todays kernel logs in pm, should i send logs again tomorrow in morning?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Flash SuperSu then flash kernel. Then see.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
No. Let's show em to Sayeed first. You got lags huh?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
Just flashed the kernel and wandered around the settings in KA. I noticed that KSM is "on" by default, would you recommend for it to stay on? I have trauma with this thing draining the hell out of the battery on other devices so i tend to turn it off...

One more thing, what are the advantages/disadvantages of Fsync? Should i use it? (I'm a medium/heavy user)

Thanks in advance.

P.S: any suggestions for gaming performance too?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pomka78:
KSM better for virtualisation ,like KVM system and if you dont use it(this kernel not support it) - better turn it off.

FSync - off.Dynamic FSync - on. Its main rule.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
So in Fsync options I should activate the 2 of them so that Fsync is turned off and Dynamic Fsync takes its place, I understand correctly?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pomka78:
Yes, synchronization Fs will be when your phone go to sleep.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
Only when i on the screen...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pomka78:
its because 2 of 4 cores run on 250mhz.See in KAM.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Not related. This doesn't happen on other ROMs. Sayeeds Rom side tweaks to deep sleep is messing with Powersuspend I think.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
Just noticed this on Slim7. I have the cores set for 333mhz min frequency but the last two return to 250, but that's not really affecting my experience so...

One thing i noticed is that whenever i try to customize Frankenstein governor, the system freezes and reboots. I'm using ssjactive with minor tweaks for now. Whenever i want to play a heavier game, i cap the CPU to 1.7Ghz and use the performance gov...

I've been reading also about power-suspend modes, many threads suggest that the best option is "Hybrid", however, the default one here is "LCD Panel", [MENTION=7074010]nutcasev1.5[/MENTION] what's your reccomendation?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
The only thing we can do here is wait for v4k6, according to my observation Holo kernel does not work flawlessly with say99's ROMs, it messes something there...i sent some kernel logs to nutcase to detect the bug.

Currently, the Power Suspend in this kernel is updated to v1.7, so you can only switch between LCD Panel and Userspace, if you set it to hybrid and open Kernel Adiutor again then it will set automatically between these two...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
Thanks for the clarification on the Power Suspend.

As for the CPU, from what i saw, all 4 cores work and scale correctly on my device, the only thing out of the ordinary is that minimum frequency wanting to stay @ 250mhz, but as i said, it's not really affecting that much apart from some very minor stutters.

For now, this kernel is proving to be very very good on Slim7, and according to AccuBattery, i'm getting about 15% active drain and 1% idle on average, which is pretty awesome for what i'm used to on the ZF2.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ramrasekar:
-Minimum frequency of Core 3 & 4 remains at 250MHz, its a bug.

-I am getting same AccuBattery results as you with say99's Unofficial LOS14.1(Stock kernel)+ Full Tune v2.1.

Also, i keep 4g on constantly!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] JBolho:
I'm not using KAM profiles, i adjusted the CPU and thessjactive governor myself.

Min/Max freq - 333/1750

hispeed_freq - 1500000

timer_rate - 30000

touchboost_frq - 1000000, everything else on CPU untouched.

I'm using zen i/o scheduler on internal and external memory with read-ahead of 1024/2048, disabled KSM, left FSync disabled and turned Dynamic FSync on. Slightly adjusted entropy to 128/256, and in Low Memory Killer i set to KA's very aggressive values.

It's amazing what a good kernel like this can do for balance between battery life and everyday performance, i attached screenshot below from AccuBattery, and i have BT, Location and Auto-Sync on. Fantastic.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
While it could be said that the core 3 & 4 never really change the min freq, not much reason to change it. Just tell the gov to scale freely. It will be smooth even on 250.

Idk what Sayeed has done but I don't like it. It's just like Borets except with Rom. You get wonder results but everything else breaks down.

Like this I can brick the device & say I solved the battery problem... It now lasts forever.
