[Lenovo K6 / K6 Power / K6 Note Questions & Answers] Vikash5566:
try to flash your phone with fast boot mode With official Flash Filles With Pc
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
Recently found out that the prime core shuts off or throttles heavily at >~43C which often led to stutters & lags in heavy games like PUBG.

So was trying to search a solution for this problem & think may have got it finally!

1) On any custom kernel for MiUI go to your preferred kernel tuner app which has the options to change thermal profiles. I prefer Franco Kernel Manager.

2) Out of the 12 or 13 available profiles first select "PUBG"

3) Then again open the menu and select "Not Set"

*often the profile is not getting automatically set by the OS during gaming*

Here's a screenshot of 3DMark Api Overhead benchmark, note the drastic increase in the Opengl score.

Similar findings in all other benchmarks!

EDIT: It's more applicable in the situations when chip temperature is 38C+ and even a 5-10 min of moderate to heavy load makes it throttle or even shut down cores via Xiaomi's thermal policies.

So profiles like Dynamic/Not Set/PUBG help increase the threshold and allow high sustained performance for a long time..

Help even more in conjunction with the Game Turbo app as in my benchmarks like CPU throttling test it gives a better result with it on than off..

IMO more important than just high scores, this allows for less throttling & jank = sustained performance = unlocking the true performance of the SD855 just like in the OP7t.

Do try this if you've experience lags & throttling too & post your results!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] XblackdemonX:
Tbh I think it must be something else that is affecting your score. I just did the test 2 times and i get

OpenGL: 175 850

Vulkan: 571 914

but when I check at the bottom the CPU Clock and Temperature, I see that my CPU never went above 30C.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
So 175k is quite less then indicating the chip is not running at a high speed at all.

Check this out- 400k+ with my settings
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] XblackdemonX:
Again you must have changed something else. My CPU never went to 30C during the benchmark so i'm not having thermal throttle.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
What you're saying - not getting above 30C is not the same as not being throttled in fact that's the point I'm making. The default profile is quite conservative & doesn't let the cpu run at its max potential. Thermal throttling does not necessarily have to happen at like 50C+.... but can be whatever the minimum threshold set in the default profile. So I've noticed that at 34-35C too the Prime Core will downclock from 2.8Ghz to 2.6Ghz & later on to 2.0Ghz/1.6Ghz & then just shut off at ~40-43C.

My scores are higher thus indicating more performance because of the cpu being allowed to run to it's original potential without the usual aggressive throttling.

You're getting 150k+ = throttled scores., I'm getting 350-400k+ because of using a different thermal profile... which again is just one of the many other inbuilt ones supplied by Xiaomi themselves.

So getting superb performance + Temps remain like 53C in games on the cpu, but the phone itself feels just mildly warm like usual.

Didn't Find this Profile on EX kernel Manager !

On MiUI RoM's., I'm using Franco kernel manager
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] Menoobone:
That is weird, this is what i get on Xiaomi EU 20.2.27 on immensity and not setting anything on the thermal profile configuration. I however, underclocked it to 2.2ghz max and my environmental temperature is about 35 degrees Celsius.

Are you running any custom kernels or sort?

3d Mark :

Open GL - 484k

Vulkan - 760k

Sling Shot Extreme - 6766

Antutu - 492k

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
Woah! What's this blackmagic fkery? :laugh:

These scores are off the charts!

When I was on immensity could get only 445k-454k in Antutu & apioverhead (Opengl=250k, vulkan 500k) , 3dmark=5900

Btw You said 35C but the temps in 3DMark are showing even more low for you in ~23C something...and in the antutu graph too it starts from 29C ..so was it a typo, the 35C? :eek:

This is amazing dude!

& No, not on custom but I'm on MiUI 11.0.3IN version.

Overall I believe that due to the low temps in your case the cpu isn't throttled at all & able to sustain max speeds for a very long time.. A very temperature sensitive chip, low threshold levels set by Xiaomi :rolleyes:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] Menoobone:
Hmm I think it might be due to the fact that I underclocked the CPU to a maximum of 2.2ghz maybe. And no, 35 degrees Celsius is my environment temperature, not the phone chipset or battery's temperature haha. I only ran those test once and uploaded the result, who knows if I might be able to get higher scores? :P

Actually if you looked around, someone posted a snapshot of 510k on Antutu before. I recalled it's in the Quad kernel telegram group.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] rjdiips:
Hey man I'm new to this underclocking stuff could u help me do it? Like giving maybe a step by step guide would be great. Thanks.

P.s. How is ur battery holding up?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] John-nsk:
this unreal. I try... 462k max

Can you please run a Geekbench? I,m curious about the scores you would get.:highfive:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] dktuning59:
Hello, not work for me. I just put "not set" on it and it’s all. Is that the right thing to do?

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
You didn't get any increased scores on benchmark like 3dmark or antutu?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] dktuning59:
not at all. it was the same scores as if I hadn't touched anything. at worst, I had installed a kernel, I went up to the score that you did but the fingerprint does not work anymore and the assistant too
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
Ok, try this - first set evaluation profile. Then again select Not Set after that & exit the app.

Which kernel?

To make fingerprint work again you need to reflash Magisk after the kernel.:good:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
I'll try it today.:cowboy:

But guessing that it'll be more or less the same as there's no CPU OC possible on the 855 atm & geekbench usually doesn't throttle in the first run enough to make this tweak help it any more.

It's more applicable in the situations when chip temperature is 38C+ and even a 5-10 min of moderate to heavy load makes it throttle or even shut down cores via Xiaomi's thermal policies.

So profiles like Dynamic/Not Set/PUBG help increase the threshold and allow high sustained performance for a long time..

Help even more in conjunction with the Game Turbo app as in my benchmark testing like the CPU throttling test it gives a better result with it on than off..

(I'll add this info to the OP)

Hi ! I was installed today this kernel : iMMENSITY-RAPHAEL-V20.0-MIUI-BETA-06-03-2020 and i was see on a forum the configuration to do in Franco Kernel Manager

I was tested on 3D mark and Antutu

3D mark : 751.167 Vulkan and 416.505 OpenGL

Antutu : 487.508 :good:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] Menoobone:
Getting 509k for opengl here :p Highest achieved on antutu with 11.0.5 and immensity gets me about 510k. Try to make sure your thermal config is not set or disabled
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] XblackdemonX:
GEEKBENCH or this mod doesn't exist. :D
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
Geekbench wouldn't show any higher scores than 750-770 single core max as it's not a CPU OC. You can't get higher scores on this test without increasing CPU speeds.

This is more of a tweak to significantly increase the sustained performance by minimising throttling.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] NVDX11:

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] Menoobone:
As per stated by yourself, you are on a battery orientated ROM with stock kernel. There is nothing we can do about it. Then again, 410k is really odd since I am getting 450k on stock MIUI and stock kernel..
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] Nick_101d:
I see. Can you suggest me a rom and a kernel that can give me top class performance and stability. It would help a lot.

does this work without a custom kernel? I tried flashing immensity to my phone but I don't think it worked properly, so I reverted back to the original kernel.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Guides, News, & D] nakulp:
Yes,( your mileage may vary) but in general it'll help with excessive throttling starting at even low temps.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xozaq:
Hi there, I'm pretty frustrated because all of the sudden my S6 (G920F) got a bootloop and I already spend too many hours in research to get this fixed without getting any further. The phone just worked fine before and I didn't change anything (stuck rom and kernel) so I don't know how this could happen. Now it just shows the Samsung boot logo until the battery dies. If I plug in the power cord it shows the charging logo but doesn't show any progress in charging. Now the extra challenge is that the home button doesn't work to get in recovery mode. So I ordered a USB-jig. Now I get into download mode. Via odin I successfully flashed a new stock rom from sammobile. Still the same problem. I tried to flash twrp via odin but still didn't change anything, I still can't get into recovery.

Since I didn't enable developer mode I can't get an adb connection running with my PC.

Now I heard that maybe the kernel needs to be fixed. So after some research I found this UniKernel that can be flashed via odin but they say it only works on Lollipop. I was so frustrated that I just tried to install it anyway but still. Nothing changed.

So now I'm kind of exhausted because I don't even know if I'm going in the right direction. Can anyone give me some advice what to try next? Why can't I get into recovery? Where can I get a kernel to flash via odin? I would appreciate any advice! Thanks in advance for taking your time! :)

Hello, I was wondering, does anyone know how more is VGA video playback slower against QVGA? I mean this model situation: Same devices, only one has VGA display and second QVGA, and same video file for example 500x400 resolution. How big in % will be performance degradation on VGA device? Due to 4 times more pixels?
[General Topics] gorbehnare:
that is a good question. I have an Axim x50v (VGA) and using TCMP I have no issues playing divx or xvid videos on it. I still can't play .mkv packages (because I don't have codecs for .h264 and mpeg4 yet). I have never tried it on the Axim x50 (QVGA) that my friend had. He didn't care about anything but the calendar on it!

I guess as long as it plays fine with windowed and full screen without any lags I don't even think about it.
[General Topics] micool_21:
this has also been something ive been wondering for awhile too. anyone have any answers

Let dell x50v out, becous of 2700G video playback can not be faster on any device, so it isnt good to comparing.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] duckduck2020:
I was wondering if there is alternative option for Oneplus 6T/fajita recovery, like OrangeFox, RedFox, or other recoveries beside TWRP. TWRP doesn't work to restore on OP6T after backup. If I try to restore from previous backup, I will always end up in a continuous boot loop :'( and to resolve is issue, I have to flash the original ROM again but that affects some of my apps, so I have to check each app and reinstall them. In general TWRP doesn't work well on OP6T like other phones, and I couldn't find any alternative recovery options, and I wish someone is working on this. :confused:

Please let me know, even if there is beta or unofficial version that works with full ROM Backup and restore.

Thank you

FYI- I tried TWRP on different Pie custom Roms and OOS9 but the result is always the same, endless boot loop.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Striatum_bdr:
Nothing exists
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] romixer:
You just taking a wrong steps while restoring. I've already done a two or three successful restores

Just backup these partitions:

1. Boot

2.System image

3.Vendor image

4.Data
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] duckduck2020:
I tried in that order and it doesn't work. I always end up in the boot-loop.

I even tried the following steps.

1. Boot to twrp recovery after full backup

2.Restore System image only

3.Reboot to twrp recovery

4.Restore Vendor image only

5.Reboot to twrp recovery again

6.Restore Data only

7.Restart

=>End result is the same, boot-loop. :(

I think TWRP is only good to flash zip files on Oneplus 6T .
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Odysseus1962:
You must be doing something wrong, perhaps using the wrong outdated version? The latest "unofficial" version posted here works, I can personally attest to that, but the older "official" version available on the TWRP site doesn't. It's outdated, and only works with Oreo and older ROMs.

There were issues with the "unofficial" TWRP and "Q" up until a couple of months ago that required the flashing of an additional file to get it to work properly, because of encryption errors, but even during that time period it was still working as expected on Pie.

Double check what you're doing, as you are making a mistake somewhere. The problem isn't with TWRP.

[General Questions and Answers] theseventensplit:
Hi all, I work at a group home and one of the clients recently purchased an Amazon Fire tablet to facebook chat with his dad.

My issue is that thanks to the crapiness of humanity I know that there's a strong potential for the tablet to grow legs.

Without getting into details, the client cannot have the tablet always in their posession, and we can't conveniently lock it down anywhere, and ideally whoever is supporting him needs to have access to the tablet whenever possible.

I'm wondering if there is an app, or even better, a device, which can cause the tablet to alert my manager the moment the device leaves the property? Ideally something not easily accessed or removed.

I know getting a tablet just for facebook chat is overkill, I wasn't the one who purchased it for the client, I'm just trying to make do with what is available.
[General Questions and Answers] IronRoo:
It's an Android right?

I had a look at the Amazon store for anti-theft apps but there were none that I recognised from sources I trust (nit that I have researched them, but maybe you can find a reliable review) You have to be certain it's from a trusted source as these type of apps require special permissions eg admin in order to do their job, and could be abused by a malicious app.

I would recommend Cerberus Anti Theft, I used them for years & they have a good reputation, even though Google removed the app form play store. This is because they had to link the Google app to additional downloads in order to maintain the functionality of the app that made it the best, after Google changed what permissions apps could be granted for apps downloaded from Google store.

You can download for Android devices from their website

https://www.cerberusapp.com/

However there is a potential problem with all antitheft apps, ie. Turning off wifi/data means you can't communicate with it(but Cerberus could be activated via SMS), also a factory reset will remove them, so if a knowledgeable person steals a phone/tablet they can remove the antitheft app, so possibly you would have limited time to activate it. Which is why I used to root & install as a system app, which meant only reinstalling the full factory Android operating system to remove it.

There should be the basic "fined my device" on Android built in (I'm not familiar with Amazon variants) but its not very powerful.
[General Questions and Answers] theseventensplit:
I'll look into it, thanks. It does have tracking but unfortunately that wouldn't alert in time to be able to accurately determine who took it.

If Cerberus can do sms then my manager might be able to get immediate notification if it walks away, once it disconnects from wifi
[General Questions and Answers] theseventensplit:
What I don't get is why isn't there a hardware based solution, something that you have connected to your wifi that alerts you if devices in connected to that wifi signal get disconnected. Or even simpler, bluetooth based.

The problem is that tablets don't all have data, and if turned off they lose the anti theft features. So there needs to be something outside of the device itself that can alert the owner. Maybe it's just to specific a problem unfortunately.
[General Questions and Answers] IronRoo:
PS. You could use Tasker app (or other automation app) on your phone to set up an alert when the tablet losses connection, if you use your phone as a hotspot, I think.
