Build Recommendation - User Feedback Requested

Fellow Kernel Users,

The most recent UV1 release from telegram channel takes us to this page https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=305085 and we see 4 UV1 R31 builds as below

(z2_plus-uv1)Nameless Kernel[4.4-EAS] R31.zip

(z2_plus-uv1-68Hz)Nameless Kernel[4.4-EAS] R31.zip

(z2_plus-uv1-72Hz)Nameless Kernel[4.4-EAS] R31.zip

(z2_plus-uv1-75Hz)Nameless Kernel[4.4-EAS] R31.zip

Can you guys pls confirm which one is the recommended one?

My use case is Android Pie rom (AOSIP) and I'm using the first one (z2_plus-uv1)Nameless Kernel[4.4-EAS] R31.zip but wanted to be sure if indeed the best one or may be losing out on

Using on AOSIP Pie ROM - No issues performance-wise.

Battery usage stats not too impressive (% consumption is bit higher vs R31) but then only one full charge cycle done

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] vuckovic_stefan:
Give the kernel a few cycles, also delete cache and dalvik cache. Calibrate battery.

Next recommendation would be Popthecorn kernel (yes i know name is funny but its actually very good kernel) :). I have downloaded v2.3 from TG group.

In case u r not satisfied with Nameless. U should also dirty flash rom before changing kernel...

Screen on should be less, like 15%... R u on balanced (default) profile? I recommend that one.

Nameless Kernel with AOSIP Pie - Battery Stats Over 2 Weeks

Continuation to below post, I have been using Nameless kernel UV1 last snapshot build for last 2 weeks and would have done atleast 8-9 charge cycles. I had reset FKM battery stats at start itself to have an average reading.

ROM AOSIP Pie

Kernel File Name: (z2_plus-uv1)Nameless-Kernel[4.4-EAS]-04030130.zip with Spectrum Profile : Balanced

Battery Stats:

Screen off - 0.8% /hr

Screen on - 17% /hr​

So a marginal improvement for battery consumption during screen on, and a good improvement for screen-off VERSUS the 1-2 day experience quoted below. Attached are the screenshots from FKM for these past few days.

Overall, good balance, no issues in performance. I still believe some more squeezing possible

Thanks to dev [MENTION=7594064]xzr467706992[/MENTION] hope to see further builds :P

Working great with aex.

I thought battery backup will be low because of the over clocking but it is really good.

HDR+ processing is super speed.

No lag in games ( assassin creed identity ).

Battery temperature stays between 38-45 degree ( ambient temp is >35 degree) with aggressive intellithermal settings ( ss attached ).

I would suggest every aex users to give a try this kernel and configure thermals as per your need

Thanks dev for this excellent kernel:)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] CheetahPussy:
I dont understand what will one do with 2.46/2Gh/780Mh clocks if they are not stable enough. I was willing to flash this kernel but it doesn't clearly say are these clocks stable. Coz i was so fascinated by looking at the clock speeds. I thought my device would roar. Way better than a stock SD821 (op3t, which handles games poorly) but it seems the overclock setting is just there and has no use at all. Kindly clear the confusion op. Also how does the games run on this kernel? Pubg and shadow legends, do they give 60fps? Or atleast more than 40/45 on recommended setting? Thermal status while gaming?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] abhi.goel:
overclocks are pretty stable.. ran antutu and got above 185k score.. same with geekbench 4 some 1900 for sc & 4500 for mc.. had they not been stable benchmark app would have crashed.. also i dont play games much but Real cricket was as smooth as it gets and without making the temp go above 42.. moreover when a dev develops something then the users should be giving feedbacks about whats working and whats not to let dev know and he could fix that..

Slight lags i have seen but I got better performance than any other treble ROM + kernal. I had tried all possible tweeks (Akt, sun cooling ) but could not able to get the non treble roms gaming performance. Main factor for this may be summer season which makes our zuk to burn. May be that's the problem for poor gaming performance these days.

---------- Post added at 05:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:16 PM ----------

I have browsed about SD820 and CPU frequencies. SD820 supports only 2.2 (big) and 1.6 (little) even though we over clock the frequencies it will not give any more performance rather than consuming only batteries. PUBG doesn't uses the freq greater than 2ghz in Big. Nameless kernal came closer to best kernal in Balanced performance. Hope for the best in future updates

Is there RAM filling issues like ar kernel..

Or the RAM is untouched.

Hugepages are not good
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pipyakas:
It does. I tried HDR-something setting in PUBGM with a 40fps caps, and with the big cluster max clocks set to 2.45ghz it would get there for a majority of the time. The frame rate is also near 40 consistently, but unfortunately almost all higher clocks crash the running app for me eventually, and 2ghz on LITTLE cluster even cause a kernel panic

The OC might be stable on some device but the voltage range might not be wide enough and maybe the sd820 is just bad at OC.

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 AM ----------

A stock sd821 has the same/higher clock speeds than this OC, what are you talking about? If it's the higher GPU OC, then I'll say it doesnt matter much since you would get thermal throttle and bottleneck on the CPU anyway before the GPU got fully ultilized

Hi [MENTION=7594064]xzr467706992[/MENTION]

I have installed your kernel with the last AEX update and I'm quite happy with it so far.

I have a few questions and I hope you can enlighten me. I'm just trying to understand at best my kernel settings.

-Virtual Memory settings (including dirty ratio and and dirty background ratio) : I have to say I haven't understood properly this settings. Could you explain your values?

-Why did you choose 512Mb of ZRAM. Since we have 4Gb of RAM, I feel like ZRAM isn't really necessary and maybe it would be wise to set it to 0. From what I read, ZRAM is mostly useful on low RAM devices, so we're not really concerned with our device.

-Entropy : can you explain your settings. Most of people say that the higher the values are, the better. However, some say it's not useful anymore. I'm not sure what to think. What's your idea on it?

Thank you for your work and I hope my questions won't sound too boring. :)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] vuckovic_stefan:
Lol i didn't plan to push it to the limit in any way...

I just asked if you tweaked something like frequency because it's underclocked...

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

I think Zram is enabled even with stock kernel

On Aex stock I'm sure it is enabled

Don't know why dough

My advice is not to touch those settings. Things can just become unstable and if we don't have reset zip for kernel (which we don't have) you would have to reflash stock kernel

With my previous device I played a lot with those settings, for understanding Google it, but I never got some spectacular result.

Just tweak the frequency, change I/O scheduler to CFQ and enjoy :)

For now this kernel even underclocked is working great

While making the battery wider and shorter would have reduced ambient temperature near the battery, that is not crucial, because batteries can work fine in a 50-60 degree environment. However, when battery is stressed (charging and using at the same time), then the heat is generated inside, which is harmful.

Also, I don't agree that Z2 does not fulfil gaming. With a proper hotplug, you can have pubg free of lags and CPU temperature around 65-68. But pubg is poorly optimized for Android.

Hello Dev, yes you are right about hotplug, intelithermal stuff, thing's can then be better (one user here said, he tweaked thermals)

Heat is battery mortal enemy, doesn't matter if it's smartphone, laptop etc. If it heats much it will finish it's life cycle sooner... I would rather put CPU on top of side.

If you have time go and see design from my previous phone Lenovo Vibe Shot :). They put cooling system like on laptop lol (Snapdragon 615), heating sink with thermal paste which dissipate the heat.

And battery was not over the CPU.

And those gamers 100% play and charge phone in same time, which generates crazy heat inside the phone, that can be dangerous, and for the battery life really bad...

I'm not playing games so I don't care really much about that, this phone fulfill 100% of my needs...
