Very correct and i totally agree. SD 845 is the best soc in the Market. It should be able to handle ANYTHING made for android thus far. OC isnt necessary, lagginess is probably a plcebo etc etc

It DOES work. Before claiming that a feature does not work try and do a quick search in the thread. Specifically use "kcal color" as key words.

I aggree. What i dont understand is why you dont block it since Sphinx provided a WAKELOCK BLOCKER :)

cheers

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jody2k:
As a big OC fanatic i actually support your opinion, i also dont feel the need to overclock this phone. And to be honest in my personal experience overclocking smarthones have never really improved anything in terms smoothness maybe by a margin or mostly placebo.

Only difference youre about to see are the numbers in senthetic benchmarks =\= real life usage and decrease in stabilty and battery ;)

Kernel optimalization on the contrary can improve alot in terms of overall smoothness / gaming / battery

Mate, thanks for your wonderful kernel. I really enjoying it on my Poco with Xiaomi.EU 8.11.1 Pie.

Can't wait to see what more you have in stock for us.

I see you are from Greece. You are my neighbour. If you visiting Bulgaria Black Sea Coast, send me PM and we can drink a beer or a coffee at the beach.

All the best mate!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] milouk:
There is ALREADY WAKELOCK BLOCKER IN THE KERNEL. Use EXKM under Misc. I think and find it

Verry correct. Exactly my point of view

Thanks a lot man for your kind words.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] ytgbg:
CPU OC didn't give me anything positive before on smartphone, but I think Snapdragon 845 reference frequencies are till 2.9 Mhz and maybe in QC Energy Model there is a frequency setup for proper support of 2.9 Mhz.

I think that Rouge Phone went for 2.9 Mhz...

[MENTION=5533673]milouk[/MENTION] As we have this LiquidCool technology maybe 2.9 Mhz is what the SOC is designed to achieve and can be benefitial implemented properly, not blindly?

Hello friends,

just shortly, if you don't know already: NightSight now works with BSG GCam Mod and Sphinx Kernel on our Poco F1 and it is (as reported) really amazing! Also now you can take ZSL / very quick pictures and also many one after another.

General Picture quality is also amazing! Unbelievable what the App can get out of our Poco F1 camera.

Only SlowMo not yet working and focus gets our of sight often with video.

https://xdaforums.com/poco-f1/themes/b-s-g-google-camera-port-developed-mi-8-t3843130

You have to have root and Android Pie. With LOS 16 just flash the TWRP Fix in TWRP and than install the newest Version in LineageOS, currently 6.1.013 V0A

More to this -> BSG GCam thread.

All the best :)

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Lazy Rich:
Please don't implement overclocking (yet). It really doesn't make sense with such a powerful SoC. And it always makes things a lot more complicated. And it will flood this thread with messages like "why isn't my device stable at 3.1 GHz" and such things... I really don't like that idea to be honest.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] milouk:
I wont man. No worries ;)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] piransu:
OC at this time is not really for utility, no app really benefits from that. But it's still one of the most requested features. It's why people make a dual 2080TI with i9 just to play DotA or LOL. The feeling of being adequate and powerful no matter how useless is very assuring to many. Knowing that you are the best around is why the gaming industry still exists, people still play stupid mobile games like gaccha or clash.

Still, if you provide OC and become the first kernel for this device or even 845 to do so, you will be a hero to the masses and your downloads will skyrocket.

Just came back to los16 and flash this one, now im getting 8hrs SOT from 80% to 20%. This kernel was great. But this time i cant install the v4a due to i|o error. Cant install the v4a driver, maybe because i change my i|o to zen on this kernel. Just wanted if there someone facing this problem?

Thanks for the dev for this great kernel...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thomas140:
Guys Guys, If you are very satisfy with your tweak using this kernel. Please don't mind to share out your settings along with your miui or other customs rom version, with antutu benchmark score that shows the marks for CPU, GPU, UX and Mem.

This is because there are many people who have want to tweak the kernel for better performance and quality usage, but not sure on how to do it.

I know that competition among other phones, even within poco users is unavoidable. But we also should help for non-technical user to have the best experience on their poco F1 using the knowledge that we know.;)

I am a non-technical poco F1 user but I do want to try out. I want to see how far Poco F1 can go, because this is my best phone so far. This is the 1st kernel I flash and I am very much appreciated to [MENTION=5533673]milouk[/MENTION] for creating this.I know that benchmark score is just for reference, but we can see the huge difference before the tweak. I have 284k before the tweak, and 295k after tweak.:victory:

This is Poco F1 family. Cheers guys. Appreciated to whoever can share out. :fingers-crossed:

What should I eat for dinner later?:confused:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] BakaPhoenix:
Why do people want oc? i keep my phone underclocked to 1300 for cluster 1 and 2000 for cluster 2 for daily use and light games then only use full speed for games like pubg.

I would underclock gpu too but the app i use for per app profiles don't support gpu freq change
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] milouk:
I know and i can but it will break stability and i dont feel at all we need oc. At least for the couple next years.

Change the governor.

Look at your cpu stats (cpu-state-on-time)

It seems that the governor keep the CPU in high frequency for some times when a process is triggering it.

I am quite sensible to cpu-locked at full throttle because coming from mia2, it was an official bug sucking the battery like crazy AND it was related to governor/boost relation.

I will check my phone with blu-schedutil for a while and see what on-time gives :)

I don't know if you have ever seen a 144hz display before but if you don't, the step from 1080p to 4k is less noticeable than going from 60hz to 144hz. Been using a 144hz more than 6 months and I'm still blown away.

Increasing the hertz in the screen is not harmful at all. At worst, the screen goes full flicker or just plain black until you reach a stable point.

Here's a small tutorial of doing so in computers (you can do the same in a laptop if you want!)

https://www.pcgamer.com/how-to-overclock-your-monitor-to-a-higher-refresh-rate/

Also to note that every display is different even though they are made by the same manufacturer so, for example, my display can reach 75hz where your display can't even reach 65hz.

Would be AWESOME if you explain to us how can we modify that value (been looking in the build.prop but couldn't find anything) so we can test and tinker with our own devices.

Thank you so much for creating such an awesome kernel for our beast!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] MasterFURQAN:
You need to click the apps tab and then sort by cpu usage and that's how you'll probably find the culprit app/ activity.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] BakaPhoenix:
Then you should look even more and find out how to chenge it yourself. Lowering all kernel user security just because one person need it to permessive is selfish and isn't actually such a complex operation that need to be added to the kernel.

And the restore option on ex kernel manager isnt working either..

Because..before i flashed sphinx.. i donwloaded ex kernel manager then back up my current stock kernel from.10.0.5 stable. Then flsshed shinx.. all is well and fast and speedy... But there are times that i cant connect to a wifi. So.i decided to restore my stock.kernel usimg ex kernel.manager. but after reboot. My wifi doesnt turn on. And it says mc address corrupted.

Guys hello,

Sorry for not replying to all of you. Im currently on a trip and dont have my pc with me.

Some things i woud like to say

1) Before reporting an issue. Take a logcat and be sure its a kernel issue. For e.x "fix notch on pubg" is just impolite , wrong and generally unacceptable.

2) if you need something Do a simple search in google and in this thread. Literally half of the comments here are "ex kernel manager" . SEARCH.

3) Sources at this point are very immature. LOS 16 hasnt even been official. There surely will be bugs. It will get stablee and stabler by the day. I always merge the latest sources from Los and Caf. And i dont tamper with settings like wifi etc. But you know its hard without a phone and without logs and without any info e.x Rom to tackle an issue. You poco users have 1.000.000 possible roms at your disposal. I cant support every rom.

4) As i say in. The first post. If you dont know what a kernel is do not proceed for yoour own good. Custom kernel are meant for users that know how to use/configure them and go back to stock.

Please respect other user's time and dont spam with questions that were answered 1 post above.

Cheers.

I will be back on Tuesday and will release 1.8 ;)

If you have both "read and write" set very high it will drive your cpu's crazy high until the pool is filled up...

Set both read and write values to low values and then reboot and see if that works
