Use face unlock magisk module
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] beingtejas:
Thank you so much for the awesome update, but

I installed latest version with clean flash and after so much time of usage I noticed that, cpu frequency is always staying at max frequency,

Means at interactive if the max frequency I set is 2 GHZ

CPU STAY AT 2 GHZ 95% OF TIME , and at screen off it moves to lowest frequency,

While at alucard and other governor , cpu frequency behaves normally..
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mrjmbetes:

[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Hard_Rock83:
Yeah already our friend did test with governors..interactive is like that..switch to good governors..whatever suits best for you..for more sot : Dyna interactive .

You can use alucard for balanced settings too..choose any

In my last benchmarks I tested ArrowOS with three alternative CPU governors.

Check it out in my thread in

post #127

.

If any of you is using another CPU Governor and would like me to benchmark it please post a request there.

Right now I am benchmarking dyninteractive, as requested by [MENTION=6615644]Hard_Rock83[/MENTION].
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] beingtejas:
Yup my friend, thank you for your benchmarks

When I faced this with interactive governor, I already switched to alucard governor then posted my confusion here, as I didn't noticed this before on interactive governor.

But I think am good with alucard..

But am still confused about do interactive governor always work like this?? But I didn't seen this behaviour of interactive governor..

Another confusion , which is the best governor for gaming..

Without pushing cpu allot.. :confused:

V9 is perfect , don't install those graphics drivers , as when I created them they were needed , now you won't need them

Stay with what dev provided, if you face any problem while gaming or else , let us know here
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mrjmbetes:
I'm using V8 and have already installed the graphics before reading this. I noticed improved gaming performance in pubg though. I can now push the device to higher settings.

I'll be updating to v9 asap. Should I install it with the same process firmware - rom - gapps - magisk ? Or just the rom? Thanks for your help.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Hard_Rock83:
V18 is still new and i faced some issues during initial flashing..thats why i recommended 17.3.

Yes its weird that it always touches 2.8 ghz max speed..i too dont have much clue about it..maybe we need more tweaked interactive which i will check

Yes gaming and all drivers i have updated including sounds and even single outdated drivers can cause lags so now from sound to graphics blibs and drivers and config files all updated...

Maybe thats why it was lagging before due to outdated drivers and configurations.

Its all done now;)
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Hard_Rock83:
I took blobs from latest 8.12.6 so better flash that firmware if u didnt flashed it already..and now better to stick with the drivers i have added inside roms..

You shdnt be facing any issues..let us know if u have any issues

[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] beingtejas:
Do try yourself

Simply do one think , install the V9, then gapps and Magisk

If you feel the pubg (other games is not like your wish)

You can install the graphics drivers..but remember that hardrock already updated the drivers..

If you find any problem with graphics performance still, then you can install the drivers for sure, they may improve the performance of the games and compatible with v9 for sure..

Remember to make a backup first.. if you want to return to stock..

Report back your experience friend..

---------- Post added at 09:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------

Okay check interactive governor friend

But in graphic driver In miui (devices - max 2, poco f1)

In both devices i found that they have both opencl and vulkan drivers too, like miui global beta have both vulkan and open CL

But our arrow os didn't have Open CL , it only have vulkan driver, and I found that many games perform much better in open CL then vulkan,

Vulkan really have some issues..

Will check the performance in gaming for some more time..
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] thangphysk48:
V18 workwell. I flash experiment addon after flash magisk without reboot. It doesnt appear on magisk manager.

After fully uninstall magisk, reboot. No more soft reboot issue.

I reinstall magisk 17.3, reboot, flash arrow experiment addon, soft reset happened.

Fully uninstall magisk again. Then reflash magisk v18 without flash experiment addon. Atm, no soft reset happen.

So I guess that experiment addon incompatible with rom v9.

Have a very important question

Do the noise cancellation works in our roms , do secondary mic near headphone jack do its work of noise cancelling..

Coz it seems like it's also picking the background audio allot..

Even if a person talking in a good distance from me.. other person can hear him easily.. even the small sound around can be heard ,

I think the noise cancellation is not working for sure.. :eek:

don't forget to install audio modification library from magisk also if you have any other audio mods

[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] dzeus6:
Arrow, Pixel Experience, are great ROMs, but I still have issue with echo during call (for person who calling). Kernel Auditor doesn't remember mic gain even when script option is on, always when telephone is use the values come back to default settings. When I talking and change mic gain in the talk time, the echo disappear, but after that, values come back again :(( . So my main issue is Kernel Auditor settings.

I've tried flash firmware, install older version of Kernel Auditor, nothing helped... And I have no idea why only I have this issue .....
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] m1n15s:
What this has to do with what i said?how one more clean install will stop screen opening when i put the phone in my ear i dont see it???

Coz only you have the proximity issue.. :silly:

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

Sometimes latest firmware solves the echo issue, by the way this echo is there because of secondary mic not working for noise cancellation.. will be solved by hard rock may be soon.. kindly have patience
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] m1n15s:
I just want when i speak on phone the screen to be closed and stay closed just that is not an issue ia a desire... If someone knows how and if i can do it i would appreciate

[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] GEoMaNTiK:
Hey man, I'm not using this rom as I've moved to a Mi Max 3 as my daily phone

However, echo was the only thing that kept annoying me on MM2 custom ROM's.

Using earphones eliminates the echo issue, but loud speaker and phone talking always caused the person on the other end to hear the echo.

Is it possible that you ever stuck a SIM tray eject pin into the top small hole of your MM2?

I know I did it once after coming from another phone and realising I had stuck the pin in the wrong hole. Was never sure if I had caused some damage or if it was even related to causing echoing for the other caller, but I know I did it and trying to work out why it was an ongoing issue.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] dzeus6:
I never stuck anything in top mic hole... I don't have echo issue on DotOs and all 7.1 Roms. Also when I use a earphones the echo is also present... Weird case :/
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] GEoMaNTiK:
Yeah that's weird alright.

And even after I stuck that top hole, all custom ROMs up to Oreo were working fine.

Once I went to Oreo, it all started..

Btw, double tap to wake has never been working with arrowos. There's something wrong with my phone or the Rom doesn't support?
