Yeah, I got the same issue.

I upgrade ROM and Kernel together.

I'm using [MENTION=942201]vidwhal[/MENTION] build 07232017-RRN 5.8.3. Flash re-upload Synergy v.17

Touchscreen works but got massive lag and Hardware button is not working.

Now I'm rollback to RC16 lite.

Sorry for not have time to gather logs because I only have 1 device. This is my only phone I use. So I need to bring it back to work ASAP.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Did you dirty flash the ROM before flashing the new file?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] aillez:
Yes, I do.

edit: update my steps.

1. Wipe /system

2. Wipe /cache

3. Install ROM

4. Install Gapps

5. Install Synergy Kernel v17

6. Install Magisk 13.3

7. Wipe /cache

8. Reboot
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mrcandy108:
I didn't wipe cache after flash kernel and everything works fine for me.

Hi bro, I wanted to flash rc17. Can i just dirty flash rc17 over rc16 and do I need flash Magisk uninstaller before or after flashing rc17…? I running rc16 lite now with Magisk 13.3. on Resurrection Remix Nougat 7.1.2 Samsung Galaxy note 3 hlte international version.

Your kind and prompt advice is very much appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Lags and Lags

Looks like adding Power efficient Flag in workqueue introduced this lag some are experiencing. I'm going to make this flag optional and disabled by default in future builds. But to have this enabled is a great way to save battery.

You can, however I suggest dirty flashing the ROM before flash RC17.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Do I need to flash latest gApps as well after flashing my existing ROM? Thanks for your prompt advice bro.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Hi buddy, can you show me step by step while flashing rc17? I'm currently running rc16 lite version with Resurrection Remix Nougat 7.1.2 on my Samsung Galaxy note 3 hlte internation version Magisk 13.3.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Suppenhuhn:

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks for prompt reply.

---------- Post added at 01:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 AM ----------

Hi buddy, what's the meaning of don't use Magisk mod? Or do I have to uninstall any running mods before flashing? Your prompt and kind advice is very much appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Suppenhuhn:
There exists a Magisk Mod for LA hlte with pph.su that has to be used with rc16.

With rc17 you need to use the original Magisk, downloaded by MagiskManager.

At first you have to uninstall all old Magisk and SU parts.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks for your prompt response bro. Currently I'm using the original Magisk 13.3 with Greenify mod running. So do I need to uninstall it before flashing rc17 or I just flash rc17 over rc16 and then install Magisk 13.3 zip? My apologies for bothering you again. Really appreciate your response.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Suppenhuhn:
After every installation of Synergy you have to reinstall Magisk.

For a clean installation use magisk uninstaller first.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks again buddy....??

Synergy RC18

Summery of changes:

*Merged all updates from upstream.

*Added UKSM, disabled by default.

*Added SafetyNet tripping boot flags remover.

*Reverted to userdebug boot flag, should fix the random apps crashing.

*Lots of other fixes and optimizations.

Detail changelog: Synergy RC18

I encourage everyone to upgrade to this version.

Awesome Kernel

Great work!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] aillez:
I still got unresponsive touchscreen, button when wake up device in RC 18.

[MENTION=6817913]gj86[/MENTION] Normally your method to test kernel is clean flash rom then your kernel or dirty flash rom then your kernel?

I just wondering why it can't work for my device. Using RRN-vidwhal build 30.07.2017
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gelomon:
I am not experiencing this error. I have been dirty flashing since 0723? Have not yet experienced any problem. Only lags on previous versio RC17. But a lot smoother now on new version.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
I'm using vidwhal's RRN build as well.

Dirty flash your rom then flash kernel. If you still have issues provide last_kmsg file.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] aillez:
Hi dev,

I think I found the problem.

It because I have On-Boot apply for Kernel Adiutor (From RC16 Lite). So I delete that setting.

I'n using RC18 now.

sorry for report issue which is cause by my setting. (Not relate to your kernel Itself)

Thanks for your hard work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MisiekDP:
I got all time bootloop with Official LOS (lineage-14.1-20170725-nightly-hlte-signed.zip) and Synergy Kernel RC18 :/

But I srsly need this kernel (is awesome). Anyone can help me? :/

Or where can I found older version of Synergy Kernel?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks bro for your prompt update. Just to be sure, can I just flash RC 18 over my exiting kernel RC 17 and then flash Magisk 13.3 zip...? I did that procedure with RC 17 over RC 16 previously which boot up fine.

Really appreciate if you could give me some feedback. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Yes. That should be fine.

Remember to reset any kernel tools before flashing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Can you provide a logcat? It's impossible to troubleshoot without any logs.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] aillez:
[MENTION=6817913]gj86[/MENTION] I found a parameter that causes phone to hang, touch screen not respond.

When I try to change GPU governor to Simple On-Demand phone will freeze. (I tried few times it hangs every time)

and I use to have this setting to apply after boot.

To ALL

not

using Simple On-Demand Governor !!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks buddy for your prompt response. Just flash RC 18 over RC 17 then flash Magisk 13.3 zip with no issue (though I took a nandroid backup just in case).

Testing it now with default setting in kernel auditor mod running Lionheart CPU governor which was having battery drain issues in RC 17. I switch to Interactive CPU governor in RC 17 for better battery life.

By the way should I choose Interactive instead of Lionheart for my CPU governor?

Anyways thanks again for hard work on this awesome kernel and your kind advice.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Battery drain depends on installed apps and usage. Use the governor you are comfortable with. For me I find lionheart a balance between performance and battery life.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Very good find, thanks for reporting.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks again buddy...I will try out Lionheart CPU governor again.... Report back if there are any issues...??

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tliebeck:
Getting a bunch of "waiting for FUSE to spin up" messages in logcat, have no access to internal storage or sdcard storage. Apps that attempt to read storage hang. On RC18, but have seen this with previous versions as well. Any suggestions?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Yes. First of all, which ROM, any previous kernel?

and logs.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tliebeck:
Sorry, running Lineage 14.1 from a couple weeks ago. Was on Xenial previously.

Just formatted system, reinstalled ROM-kernel-addonsu-gapps (in that order)...looks to be behaving itself now.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
If you were on Xenial before, the problem was probably because of it uses own sdcard file and deletes the default one. I think there is a uninstaller provided in xenial thread to restore default sdcard file.

In any case dirty flashing the ROM will solve it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Hi buddy, just wonder what it's MSM Limiter in Synergy RC 18 running with kernel auditor mod? I've already tried googling it but can't find any answer. Your advice is very much appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
You can use msm_limiter to set each core of the cpu to different low/high frequency, governor and governor configuration.

Basically it makes the 4 core of the cpu behave as independent cpu altogether. This is a advanced configuration and can used to save battery.

I suggest looking around xda more before using it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Julian CM Kwan:
Thanks buddy for your promptness. I'll check further with XDA threads.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] peeporzor:
Okay guys. I have been rocking this RRN unofficial for some days now. I'm on the stock kernel and I have not made any changes to kernel settings. I have pitchblack themes enabled. Really looks cool. Thank you very much vidwal and all who made it possible. Meanwhile, I want to try synergy kernel. I want to have longer battery life. Are there things I need to know or do before flashing it. Also, is the default setting cool enough to save battery life compared to the stock kernel? Thanks in advance. My device is n900w8 variant and I'm on the latest baseband
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sdssls:
Hi, I have tried dirty flash over with latest rom with gapps then synergy kernel, but ended in bootloop.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SmilinGuy:
peeporzor, would you please post which version of the RR ROM you're using with the n900w8? Also, if you try the synergy kernel, please post the version as well. On my sm-n900w8, I've had success with RR-N-v5.8.3-20170625-hlte-Unofficial-tarkzim-no-magisk.zip and Synergy-aosp-hlte-rc9.zip.

When i tried RR-N-v5.8.3-20170723-hlte-Unofficial-vidwhal-no-magisk.zip I got the "no Sim card" error. When I tried the Synergy-rc17.zip, I got stuck in a reboot loop.

Anyone know which versions of RR or the Synergy kernel are compatible with the n900w8? I'm running the hlte version of TWRP.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
First try to see if you can boot with stock kernel.

Also if you are using RRN follow the guide by svbarbosa. Links are in first post.

Comparison of Governors / Hotplugs Battery Performance

During the last 3 days I ran the battery test included in

GFXBench GL Benchmark

.

I cross tested four cpu governors: Phantom, Alucard, Lionheart and SmartMax EPS with all four available hotplugs (not considering MP Decision).

I am not a fan of benchmarks, but this battery test at least gives a objective measure of battery drain.

It was a pain. Each iteration takes a little over an hour to run, 30 minutes to test, 30 minutes to recharge battery and a few minutes to record/setup for a new iteration.

The results confirmed my subjective feeling that Phantom governor is better than Lionheart in terms of battery drain.

To my surprise, the best combination was Alucard / Intelliplug, with Phantom / Bricked in a very close second.

All tests were done using Synergy rc17 with RR-N-v5.8.3-20170723-hlte-Unofficial-vidwhal-no-magisk.zip.

The setup is, of course, the one from my thread:

[Guide][AOSP][7.1.2][HLTE][Rev3][28-Jul-17]Resurrection Remix - Rock Stable Setup

.

The spreadsheet with all results is in the attachment.

Rolled back to RC 16 RC 18 just seemed a bit weird in my n900t I also like my gpu at 600 MHz as it makes my phone real smooth my battery lasts about 8 hours depending on what I'm doing and this is with my cpu at 2.5ghz and by weird I mean hard locking . Stuttering and low fps in the launcher

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Pierl666:
Note 3 HLTE SM-N9005 - RR-N-5.8.3, Prev. Ker: RC 17, now RC 18 dirty flash on 17.

- greater battery drain compared to RC 17

- better with Whatsapp Web compared to RC 17

- Telegram Web, no problem

- Instagram still problem with videos

- more heat when stressing device

- no more support for SPen (in my case, it doesn't work, with RC17 was ok)

- speaker with low volume (only my problem?)

All kernel was flashed with TWRP 3.1.1.0
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
My Kernel adiutor doesn't have this option, are you using kernel adiutor mod? Just curious :p
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Yes,

Kernel Adiutor-Mod

FTW. ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
What you mean by hard locking, need more explanation. Stuttering and low fps in UI are not caused by GPU frequency, since in UI hardly push the frequency over 320 Mhz. It's to do with CPU governor and how aggressively it pushes cpu frequency. The 600 Mhz overclock will only help in games and heavy 3D workload.

If you are using or have used any kernel tools, reset and see if the issues still present.

It's stuck because of selinux/sepolicy denials. Which build are you using?

Change cpu governor and see if the issues still present.

Not related to kernel. Check what else you changed during or after upgrading to RC18.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sdssls:
I'm usually the following:

1. Lineage 01/08 rom

2. Synergy RC18 kernel
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] zerokoo:
hard lock is a term used in the pc building community to describe when ones screen freezes and you have to force the system to shut down ive had to do that numerous times with rc 18 i made sure to do a clean install of lineage before each flash and or roll back to make sure nothing is messing with the kernel settings :) as far as ui and gpu clocks ive noticed at least in my case that the ui is overall smoother with higher frequencies of the gpu i also noticed as well that the display would go unresponsive as well on rc 18 when it is woken up
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
The term was not confusing but the used context was. Reset your overclocks and test to see if the problem is gone. (the usual method of resolving hard locking in pc building community)

Restart, after booting back up use the device as usual. Do not open any games or 3d apps. Locate this file: /sys/class/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/devfreq/time_in_state

Paste it back here.

Mention your flashing process including any mods/patch flashed with version information.

Note: punctuation.

Kernel Adiutor

I change setting about CPU and energy, but still have high heat (about 70° C), ondemand profile.

CPU:

Min Freq: 345 MHz

Max Freq: 2265 MHz

Sinc multicore: 652 MHz

down_differential_multi_core 3

freq_step 20

I see many time a single core is in full load, with no reason at all, with no step: it go from sleep to max.

Profile powersave

limited on lower freq cpu

Too slow. Not very pratical profile.

Cpu on Core #1 get often to 2.8 GHz. Not good for energy/heat.

Profile ondemand:

With a bit of customizations maybe i get a solution. Heat is about 50/60 degrees. Need more time to see how battery goes.

Min Freq: 652 MHz

Max Freq: 2265 MHz

Sinc multicore: 1420 MHz

Bonus: i get random reboot, maybe for heat protection (?)

- with Core Control and SoC temp on, seems be better. No random reboot for now.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
Reset your kernel adiutor settings and reboot. See if the temp problems are gone or not.

If the core reaches 2.8ghz it means you are overclocking. Which is by default disabled.

Random reboots are not caused by heat problem. Could be that your device need more voltage to stay stable at that overclock.

Run Stress CPU app on stock settings to make sure your devices thermal response is ok.

If your device constantly stays at high cpu frequency check with SystemPanel app to see which app/process causing the load.

I can't seems to install synergy kernel on latest lineage ROM or any RRN ROM. I tried all the instructions, still no luck

Every time I clean install a RRN or LA14.1 and flash synergy 18

I get bootloop, not to mention I haven't successfully flashed any version of synergy

Xenial seems to work

I'm on note 3 N9005 running RRN 5.8.4 with stock kernel

Had bootloop so dirty flash to normal boot

Here are my steps of how I installed

I'm using twrp 2.8.7.0

Wiped data,cache,system, dalvik

Installed ROM

Try this build, report back if this fixes the issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
This probably due to use of magisk patcher to load ramdisk from original boot/kernel when flashing kernel. You can try to extract the boot.img file from the zip and flash it. After that flash supersu.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gj86:
The file you flashed are not meant for you. It was a special testbuild for that specific user.

On another note:

This is a custom kernel, which means there is a certain learning curve to using this. And it's not for everybody. Search the thread/XDA for information on how to setup or properly configure specific kernel parameters to suite your needs.

Just to keep in mind,

I'm not forcing you to use this kernel. I have no obligation to you neither you have to this kernel. Simply use other kernel if its too irritating.
