[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
49k with default kernel is quite bad actually. High sixties is what one would expect.

Some of your 300 apps are interfering with the performance of the system, kinda explains the lags you get on Holo & all.

Tone it down. That post wasn't trigger worthy. Benchmarks offer a relative comparison between configurations.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
Why is asking for benchmarks bad? :< I was merely asking ;-;

Hm, I use Magisk modules such as fonts, xposed, and such.

I don't use Greenify, but rather, I use Brevent, maybe you can try it to check which is better?~

I use a live wallpaper, has tons of games, tons of reading apps, I got rid of Facebook and Messenger cause toxicity.

I have a number of music apps cause I'm comparing them to know ze best.

I have some utility apps that help with the overall flexibility of the UI such as fooview, LMT, and control center.

The games I have are big games and emulators. E.g., FFXV PE, FFIX, FFIII, and the Dragon Quest serie, etc.

Xposed modules such as Amplify, Youtube AdAway, Youtube bg playback, lockscreen module, gravityboxN, maxlock, P Animation.

I have apps like Lucky Patcher (enabled on xposed too), GGuardian, SQLite Editor :] and Titanium backup.

I surely have forgotten other stuff (a lot of stuff) and that's all I could remember atm but I know there are more I haven't mentioned.

PS: Oh, I think I have Enable Doze for GMS thingy [MENTION=8436917]Magisk[/MENTION].
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Nothing wrong with benching. Its a diagnostic tool. Not a comparison tool.

Is there something you don't have...?? ?

I think it's the xposed, why do you need that on a Rom like GA? Lots of redundant apps.. Why use both lucky patcher & tibu?

If you can't remember what you have in your phone it's time to change your computer habits, seriously clean it a bit. Do a clean flash, wipe all partitions & start over from scratch & don't binge download apps.

Finally, why keep an app you have forgotten about? ?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
Yes, there are things I don't have, I don't have fb and messenger XD and other chitchat apps cause they make me anxious.

Oh I have steam and discord and battlenet.

Because I'll remember them when I need them :o

Lucky patcher for...huehuehue XD

Tibu is bae. Better than nandroid.

Xposed mostly for making UI better, looks-wise, except for amplify.

Oh, right, I have app2sd, too.

Uhh, an app that can download discographies and an app that can download books :o and some sort of book-tag editor, and music tag editor.

Apps where you can stream/dl anime and manga, webtoons apps (I have like 4 or...so ) ergo, reading apps.

A game that keeps me out of my phone whenever I work on my game (that sounds cute).

Oh, right, substratum themes. I have like 4, 3 are for looks and 1 is for soundtrack (srsly biohazard has FF 8-bit tunes, so cute!)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] AhZhi:
Hi, do the xposed will impact performance of phone?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] DallasBelt:
I don't think you need to use AdAway since the ROM has the modified hosts file. You could try Vanced YouTube for background playback. It also has a built-in ad blocker. Why GravityBox? This ROM has all the customizations you need IMO. Just a suggestion though (:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
Does the built in modified hosts file block youtube ads too? :o

Is it as updated as Youtube on playstore? :o

There's just 2 features on gravity box that I use, it's that image when you open the quick settings thingy and the ram-bar on the recents app @ bottom corner. Looks cool!

---------- Post added at 05:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 AM ----------

Anyway I'm gonna revert to 15 March Build. Seems like it's nicer to me than the latest build is :<
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] sushuguru:
1. Nope, no host method can completely remove all ads in YouTube app i believe.

2. The vanced youtube is not updated as fast as the store but it has many more features: block ads, background playback, force resolution.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
Oh, right, I use AdGuard too ;o

Might as well remove youtube xposed and try vanced :o

Thank you!

Before I forget

Benchmarks for the latest version with latest stuff (not the Atom 1.1) is 63954.

But why does it feel so sluggggggggish?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
Have you compared the performance of atom 1.1 and atom 1.3?~ If so, can you say 1.1 is better / more stable?~
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
After lags & problems on both NutOS base & Lineage base ( which is the latest build, because bernardobas literally said fek it ), it's pretty sure that this phone can't keep up with what you demand.

Change your phone or do some literal spring cleaning.

Happy Easter & April Fools Day
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
I flashed latest + hololite and it suddenly became smooth! Me happy.

Well I'm looking to buy a new phone so :o
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] merihy:
No I did not compare them. I did not use v1.3 much. At the moment I am using latest rom without atom (dirty flashed again) and it is fine till now.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] dirtbagger007:
hololite v5a7?...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nijihana:
Yea
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] daultimate:

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] merihy:
I agree, latest build is working really good. I did not flash atom like I did for previous builds and I did not feel any need for it till now..

Good job..:good:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Man you people are so oblivious, the latest build is normal lineage with atom kernel. It has none of the NutOS optimizations.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] merihy:
Hahaha I did not know that, or I missed this little detail in somewhere :laugh:

But in the about phone section it does not say atom for kernel info...

Anyway no problem at all now..
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jobvandonselaar:
Me2, did not see any remarks about the atom kernel now being used... I even did check the about section for what kernel its on because this thing is flying now...

So atom kernel, way to go!... ???

Hi,

I have magisk on my device, so now i am unable to use some bank apps as they detect root even after using magisk hide, so can i simply flash magisk uninstaller ?

Or i need to flash boot verifier also?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bernardobas:
I think the issue is due to unlocked bootloader detection. Uninstalling Magisk probably won't help. But you can try anyway and tell us what happened.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bernardobas:
Dirty flashing should be ok, but make a nandroid backup first just in case.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] o_farukdemir:
I dirty flashed latest release on top of resurrection remix build. It was so laggy that I couldn't open my lockscreen. After that I flashed Atom v1 kernel. And now it is so smooth. Thanks for the all efforts you made. ????
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Mauri_mza:
Yes o yes i need to flash atom kernel to work smoothy ??

thanks
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bernardobas:
Atom kernel is already included. Just flash the latest build.

Gracias por contestar viejo, te hago una consulta yo tengo RR 5.8.5 y le hice el upgrade a MM cuando lo instale .......

la pregunta es, puedo instalar esta rom directamente o tengo que hacer un downgrade a L ?? por que estaba bajando los archivos y lei en una parte

que decia:

Firmware required: Stock Asus 5 (L), open bootloader (of course) and TWRP 3.2.1+. Based on: LineageOS 14.1 and Resurrection Remix N

Perdon si la pregunta es estupida,pero eso me confundio un poco. :eek:

Gracias de antemano!

Saludos!!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] appollokillers1:
no tienes ningún problema con 5.8.5? pregunto porque todos hemos tenido problemas con la rom por culpa del MM, perdida del señal por ejemplo, pero ningn problema si instalamos el 5.8.5 sobre LL, por esto esta esa frase, asi que no tienes que hacer nada si no tienes ningun problema, eres uno/una de los afortunados :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Mauri_mza:
Solo caidas de la señal de wifi mayormente, por ahora parece que entonces he tenido suerte con la señal de la compañia ..... lo que si tuve es un bug con los

audios de voz que envio por whatsapp, se escuchan super bajos... no encontre solucion a eso. Espero.. flasheando esta rom se solucione, por otro lado con CM13 antes no me habia pasado, creo que soy unos de los pocos que tiene ese error. :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] appollokillers1:
de eso nada, todos tienen problemas con el sonido en whatzapp, esas caidas de señal es por culpa de MM
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Mauri_mza:
Me conviene hacer un downgrade a L entonces ??

En esta rom, los audios de whatsapp tienen este mismo bug bro o es culpa tambien de MM??

abzo!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] appollokillers1:

After upgrading to MM and then Flash RR 5.8.5, I had an error with WhatsApp records (low voice registration) ..... so I was wondering if when I will flash this new rom

the WhatsApp audio will work normally ... but it seems that the problem is MM so whatever rom you flash in MM the audio WhatsApp will be low ... I think ...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] sushuguru:
It's a know bug for all nougat rom on our device and will probably never be fixed.

And is there a Kernel Upgrade plan to V4.xxx for this close Update??? ???
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
We'll remember when lineage remembers.

So far, mm blobs is a requirement before we can migrate to 4.4. So it make take a few months to get there.

We are just upgrading the build systems for now & I'm updating the toolchains. Ubuntu 18.04 released.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bernardobas:

No modules, magisk hide enabled.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Sudarchikov:
Hi, All!

How's the latest build? Has someone already checked a speed and smoothness?

I'll try on the second phone tonight. But I do not see serious things in the changelog yet.

By the way, Facebook works normally after the upgrade from the market.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] appollokillers1:
that Ubuntu is just a beta for now
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] GabrielPopa02:
Is it posible that someone can take Lineage OS in his hands and continue to develop it for us and maybe make Oreo happen?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
I can handle it?

The code went to release candidate & was frozen from changes day before. No more radical development. It's quite stable & much better in most areas.

Develop N lineage? I'm doing that. All this MM blobs stuff is on Lineage 14. I don't have the time for oreo because I chose to do the other 2 projects. 4.4 kernel & MM blobs.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] GabrielPopa02:
Oh i see. Thanks a lot and sorry to bother.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] merihy:
Hi, there is new release. In the changelog there is only lawnchair and magisk version upgrades. Is there any other improvements? If not, is there a need for new release just to update apps or magisk?

It is easy to upgrade the applications individually, i would build new release if for example it will include april security patch update or some other improvements.. What do you think about this, am i thinking wrong?

By the way thanks for the new build of course :o
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Sudarchikov:
Hi guys! The last build is as good as the previous one. Thank you! Definitely, you are going the right way. We are waiting for the next one with the April security updates.

I tried to make the screen broadcast to the TV. The picture quality is very poor and the sound plays on the phone, not on the TV. YouTube application works in a stable broadcast. But when playing from Chrome video periodically stops and spontaneously runs Google Music. Please check this with anyone who has the opportunity. I checked on two phones. The effect is the same.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] DJ AJB:
Hi guys!! I have this problem... When I open a video in the browser (pre-installed browser) from YouTube or other sites the video looks like it has a green filter !! Anyone knows a fix!!

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] juliohm:
Quick question: coming from LineageOS

Thank you so much for the effort.

I want to try this new ROM, but I'm still not sure how to upgrade.

I'm currently running the last LineageOS update for Z00A from this january. Is it safe to dirty flash on top of that version? Or should I start from scratch?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bernardobas:
You can't upgrade or flash GA on top of Lineage.

You must wipe system, data, cache, dalvik/art.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] appollokillers1:
i doubt very much that is kernel the problem, more likely something to do with the codecs/decodecs,, you don't see much info about updates for video decodecs on android as you all see on pcs...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ankerlevel:
as patron builder bernardo said, there are more lineage changes that you cant see in that ga limited changelog

but really, are you really that poor that you cant afford downloading 450mb? it takes 2 minutes to download with an avg connection

send me your paypal id and ill make a donation for you

or even better, don't download sh*t and go f*ck a goat

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] KwongTN:
Average as in your part of the world actually.

My home connection uses about 40mins to download an update, so I'll always hold it till I get to my office, which is about 30 times faster.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] SVSurve:
Can you lower the brightness to 1 and battery is draining more since last update
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] GabrielPopa02:
It drains more battery because kernel was changed with atom. He said it a few pages before.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] SVSurve:
He changed to atom kernel 2-3 months ago and atom kernel is way more stable and battery efficient. Its not problem with that. He might have modified some things in kernel that is causing battery drain, it happened in previous build too.

I think he is modifying kernel for good performance and battery life. Performance is good in this build it never lagged since I updated to latest build but battery life is problem.

I even tried to reduce the brightness by init.d scripts but brightness resets to 5 when I unlock my phone.

Other wise everything is good in this is rom never experienced any issues.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] nutcasev1.5:
Atom was brought back only for the last 3 builds because GA is too heavy to support Holo without issues.

Bernard doesn't modify the kernel source to my knowledge. If you would read the past 5 pages of this thread you will know the whole story.

Atom does not support low brightness. It aims to be as close to lineage as possible. Hence it is stable but is comparatively not as efficient as Holo. Holo meanwhile is stable but lags on very heavy roms like RR/GA.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Iverol:
sooooo, is it stable again? I mean I just fcked up my mokee instalation :))) and i'm thinking on reinstalling this rom. Is it still lagging? I see atom was added back so I think it should be quite smooth.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] sushuguru:
It's much stable now and should be enough for daily use.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Iverol:
Hey [MENTION=7074010]nutcasev1.5[/MENTION] and [MENTION=7179155]bernardobas[/MENTION] could you add an auto-update feature like lineage had? With open recovery script and all that stuff? It would make updates a lot easier. The critical updates that can't be dirty flashed would be a problem tho...

Just interested in the question of fast charging. When the charger is connected, the phone turns on the fast charging mode, but any action takes it out of this mode to slow charging and does not return back.

Thanks a lot! You're the best team in custom Android. Stay the best!
