Look to be frank PUBG is an online game so the phone's CPU GPU even the WiFi or the mobile internet will be active all the time plus that game is still not optimised for many devices specially our device it will heat no matter what kernel or what ROM you are in. I'm not playing PUBG for that reason, I'm waiting for Fortnite Battle Royal to release for Android that a much better game than PUBG

I'm on RR 8.1 R17, and found my phone dead while charging overnight. When I rebooted battery was stuck at 85%. Lost the alarm and almost got late for my job :eek:

Disabling CPU boost in CPU section can really improve battery life in R17.

For heating debate of PubG.

I am running AiCP 13.1 latest weekly along with Nameless R17. Heat is by far the lowest for any setup combination I have tried.

Game settings are default, medium as detected at first launch.

No root so I don't have any extra tweaks or mods !!
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] wajidpariyani10:
Feels smooth ! Aex 5.7 + nameless r17 at these frequency...

Ps:- i wont game at this high frequency. Just normal usage !!!

And this is not the highest, at the highest one it worked smooth for a minute than got black screen with led

But one level lower for cpu's,gpu , now it is stable as of now.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Sanath2017:
Thanks bro. But for gaming 2.3 GhZ would be fine right or 2.1Ghz is enough and what about GPU
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] wajidpariyani10:
2.1ghz is good for pubg as the higher frequency rises temperatures and thus causes thermal throttling , But higher frequency might be an advantage for games other than pubg !! I have just tried pubg !

Hi everyone.

I tried to install this kernel on latest ArrowOS, but it gave me an error that it is not a treble rom (but it's definitely treble rom, see screenshots). What could be the problem? Maybe the rom has no custom kernel support, or this kernel only works with certain roms?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Shinichi Kudo:

Hi guys. Is there some UI (I'm using AEX 5.7) for frequency or profile (battery, performance) in phone? Or should I use some 3rd party apps (what is the best then) like Kernel Auditor?

P.S phone not exploded yet)

P.P.S SafetyNet checking seems working
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] alapan97:
The KA asks for root privileges. AEX 5.7 is installed on my device and even though I flashed SuperSU.zup to root the ROM there's no sight of SuperSU app and certainly no root privileges. So this proved to be useless to me. As I have already flashed this kernel, is there any other way to OC the clusters without KA.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] abhi.goel:

I am on Aex 5.8 treble ROM but after flashing the zip of R17 treble it shows error 1 and your ROM is not treble supported!

Is there any step that I m missing here?

It fails to flash the zip and still my device stuck in bootloop at Zuk logo...then I dirty flashed the ROM to get my device to boot up

I mounted everything except otg before flashing was that my fault?

That's a thing that I usually do which is usually required everytime.

Pls help I need this kernel to under lock my Z2 plus for better battery backup !

Thanks in advance

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Kham123:
Does this mean it is by default over locked to 2.5 or it can be over locked to that ?

ok?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Sanath2017:
In terms of single core 820 will be way better but in multi core it will definitely loose. But in case of Graphic Performance then 820 outperforms SD636 in a big margin
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Shreeram02:
I know that

Even with higher scores 820 is better in cpu

Bcz most of the apps except video/image rendering uses less than 5-6 cores soo 820 is better and less cores less better consumption

and even in video rendering z2 plus was faster than rn5 pro there is a video of speed test between z2 plus and rn5 pro in youtube check it out

and 820 has significantly better ram speeds
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Sanath2017:
That's true. But you can't ignore the fact that SD636 is fairly new Chip and hence will have better battery and even better heat management than our sd820
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Shreeram02:
But I get 5 hr 30min of sot and thats fairly enough and other thing is I don't think rn5 pro even with 500mah bigger battery get more than 6hrs of sot

And i think heat management is a software related thing and it is depended on kernal where the nameless kernal is incredibly good
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] sanjay.2704:
If u check rn5 pro forum here, people report 7-8 even 9 hour sot.. reason being as rightly reported 636 14nm architecture and new chip with better performance and heat management result in better backup.... Also 636 is more of efficient build . 820 built as performance so more power hungry.. result is less backup.. I have got 7+ sot is on 820 when tweak to battery favourable settings .. so depend on ur preference what u want.

If u want both go 835 on op5t
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kunal sasane:
What about sd845?....more tweked to performance?.. what tweaks you used....also in general... How much sd820 should give back....? I don't get much battery back up...but I get full performance... No lags nothing..heat is okay for us as we don't have a good thermal design.... Or may be sd820 heats a lot??? Any idea about how much sd820 heats?....

---------- Post added at 02:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

The comparison is hard.....they both are a different series.....but sd820 is a performance chip...and sd636 is a mid range chip... ..

Go check the top Qualcomm chip... The list is this way

1.Sd845

2.Sd835

3.Sd821

4.Sd820....

And 636 is not even on the top list.....

Sd636 is not that great in performance....when compared to sd820..

This is not about pubg right??:rolleyes:...if you are saying pubg runs smooth on sd636..then I can't help you..we can't judge a chip by one a game which is not optimized.....pubg needs more cores to run the game smooth... That's why it runs on sd636 more smooth.....

I think high graphics game like Asphalt 9 and modern combat will run way smooth on sd820 than sd636....its the pubg dev that don't made the game optimized.

Also if sd636 is much great than why top flagship phones don't have it....?they know that it won't give them that flagship entry and of course performance may cry...

Extremely Sorry for off topic...devs and all others.:)
