Don't be fooled, if you look at the dates, these Geekbench runs were not back to back at the same time, they were on different dates using different settings. The one I just posted couple posts above is from today.

I am seeing similar scores now: my Single-core seems to be dragging it's feet a tad at 1030 but I am getting 3300 - 3400 multi.

Snapdragon user here. When I first got the phone I restored stuff with smartswitch. I didn't necessarily experience the terrible lag and stutters but something just didnt feel right. Didn't feel smooth all around. I had done the debloat and applied some commands from the OP but I then decided to factory reset like suggested in the OP and start over. Since resetting, I havent apllied anything yet but the phone feels way more improved in its fluidity. Feels just right. I know it can improve and I will debloat at some point again but the way its running right now I can say that all that I need is to improve battery. Right now I'm probably getting 6 to 6.5 hrs of SOT. Anyway I just wanted to point that out and thanks to all involved in this thread.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:

Amazing write-up bro, much needed and appreciated. You should make this a separate thread for others, I'm sure they will find it really useful. I basically had to find out all of this on my own, but you have written it very clearly and concise. Excellent job.

When we can disabled GOS, Why we need such this thing? Doesn't disabling the GOS itselft prevents all the functionality of the app? Or not?
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Yeah what @Dj daudi said. If you're not a heavy gamer I wouldn't worry about it.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
I can't speak for other games but I've put thousands of hours into COD Mobile at a high level and I can guarantee that GOS does nothing good for this game in particular.

It runs at max performance with GOS, game Booster, and game launcher completely disabled.

I wish Golden Reviewer and other YouTubers would stop using Genshin Impact when benchmarking a phone's performance and chip capabilities. It's hardly as demanding or performance heavy a game compared to others. Not that many people even play it and it's not optimized across the board.

Sorry for getting the thread off-topic.

@Hamid Chikh

Have you tried the Universal Android Debloater GUI?
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Yeah this one is kinda ugly ngl. It doesn't show the app icons like ADB App Control but it does have built-in recommended presets based on how little or how much you wanna debloat. It also tells you what the package does when you click on it, and what you will be sacrificing if you disable it, which can be useful for others who are too lazy to look it up.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
So here is something interesting. I decided to use Adaptive Battery turned on for a full cycle to see what difference it would make and it did not make it worse or better. Battery life still good. I wonder how long it takes to "adapt".

16h of SOT in 14h time frame, how crazy could that be
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Great work you got there, and no it's not off-topic we just want to improve our phones.

The thing is, none of this is necessary, since disabling GOS, then deleting app data, using AppControl, garantees that there will be no connecting or updating in the future. As you can see here in my own phone, i restored GOS, then used 2nd method to "just" disable it and it works fine.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
I agree here! You can name it "all ways to get rid of GOS" and you can also add mine at the top for people to try them, from easiest to most complicated. I'll give you a shootout in OP
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Yes it does, but the more ways to do it, the better.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:

whyyyy,what i did wrong now
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
9h or 8h of SOT are both good, but 9h is better. You can scale this down or up, the effect is negligible if on, but important to know it doesn't "help"
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You're confusing high with adaptive. I agree that adaptive 120 doesn't hurt battery life that much compared to static 60, yes, but static 120 will cut your battery life in half.

also, keep in mind that higher refresh rate induces higher temps.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Just try, if you lose something, restore, it's as simple as that. At least, you know it won't get you to a bootloop because i tested all of them. But loosing features isn't my concern here, because to each one their "important" feature.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:

[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
It seems too obvious to mention
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Lol my bad that's what I meant. I only have about 260 uninstalled. I like certain things and don't mind keeping them.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You can still use adaptive, but instead of 1-120 for S22U, you can go 60-120. Which improves performance, and doesn't destroy battery like static 120.
[General Topics] StratoS117:
From my experience with my S22U the lowest the screen will go is 10hz. However the adaptive smoothing gets kind of funky and erratic when it goes that low especially with Youtube videos. So honestly I'd do the default 24hz on the low end, or 60hz on the low end. On the high end 120hz is really nice, however I cant really feel a difference from 96hz so I just stick to 24hz - 96hz.

[General Topics] omnimax:

[General Topics] NozGojira:
Hamid once again thank you! Changing screen mode helps me to elimante "yellowish effects" on my some part or my screen. My screen turns back to normal again vivid white view lights and colorfull. not that typical samsung had yellowish effects on screen anymore.

So my final verdict guys. I think this is important especially on like me has a OCD personality about things. I think atleast in a week try to change ur screen mode from vivid to natural, stay on natural for a while then go back at vivid again. then alternate.

Is it me or i think this is how calibrating the screen its just exercising your screen.

You're right, it doesn't cause any problem now, probably due to the new update (BULF). It used to be tied to the camera app causing it to crash when uninstalled (BULG).

Hi @Hamid Chikh ,

thank you for your work, it's really amazing what you have done here.

Everything works great except one thing. Do you know why i can't share photos from camera app?

It's not a big deal, but i'm just curious.
[General Topics] nocio:
If i'm reading it correctly, BrightnessBNR is bound to auto brightness, and DrmEventService is something about some app that streams/uses protected data like Netflix, so i'm guessing that this app is safely to disable
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Hi !

You're welcome, it's a pleasure working on improving our devices, thank you for contributing.

I don't have that problem specifically, i can share photos from the camera app. If you're not in BULF fimware, i recommend you restore SamsungSmartSuggestions (com.samsung.android.smartsuggestions), it used to be tied to the galery share feature in the past. Come back to me with the results, i'd appreciate it.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Yes, you're right. The problem is they're all tied to one main service which is "Android System" and which can't be removed. Until now, i put the app to sleep by setting it to restricted in battery settings like advised in OP.

This has nothing to do with Internet speed - it's only relevant for the logging function (I've turned it off)

"Increasing the buffer size would allow you to capture more logs in the buffer, and reducing the probability of an overwrite in case of high-frequency logs. Setting the option to "OFF" would disable logging.

These only impact logcat. It is not related to dmesg. "dmesg" prints the message buffer of kernel."

[General Topics] Venom0642:
AT&T S22 Ultra 5G Snapdragon 512GB, So if i can achieve this without using the setups here. I get over 10hrs SOT i do have min 60hrz to max 120hrz have processing speed on and extra brightness on display WQHD with 120hrz, and no i don't use power saving mode.

This means the ones here doing theses tweaks here should get more battery life

*PS* no tweaks added at all, only thing i have is AT&T bloatware disabled.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:

That's good. It would be beneficial if those that post their SOT would specify if they're on wifi or network all day. Or a mix like in your case. That way we have a better idea of what to expect. Sometimes we read those types of post and wonder what we're doing wrong. Thanks

Bro can I ask you a question since we have the same device?

Are you able to run Antutu Benchmark on your phone with GOS disabled with no issues?

By the time I get to 24%, my phone is scorching hot and feels like it's going to explode so I had to quit and stick it in the freezer. Like literally too hot for my fingertips. This is not normal.

You can PM so we don't clog the thread.
[General Topics] Ulumia:

[General Topics] Ulumia:
This part of the text
[General Topics] StratoS117:
Holy hell that's hot! I'll give it a go on mine since I now have GOS fully disabled as well. I'll let you know if I too feel the fires of Mordor.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Yeah let me know bro. Geekbench and 3D Mark run fine, the phone gets a little bit hotter than when I put it on the charger but it doesn't burn my finger like my testing with Antutu. I downloaded the apk from their website.
[General Topics] StratoS117:
Ok so running Antutu Benchmark v9.3.5 my Snapdragon CPU reached a maximum of 57.6C. 3DMark only hit a maximum of 40.3C; Geekbench 42.4C. So yes it is hotter as well on my end.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Okay so I'm not alone.

What are you settings? Performance Limit enabled? Temperate control enabled? Processing speed?

I couldn't even finish the test dude. Did you complete it? What was your result?
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Pretty sure you got something wrong from OP, what are all adb commands you entered ? (performance only)
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:

[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:

[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
I think it's a device thermal issue.
[General Topics] StratoS117:
Performance Limit enabled, Temperature Control enabled, -2C in Thermal Guardian with Limit CPU while Heating checked, Processing speed on Optimized; All GOS/Game Booster stuff uninstalled/disabled, sem_enhanced_cpu_responsiveness 1.

I can't remember the score exactly but it was like 954000 or something.

I just ran it again with all the GOS/Game stuff re-enabled for ****s and giggles and it got way hotter. Like uncomfortable to touch my screen hot. Had to stop at 28% on Terracotta.
[General Topics] StratoS117:
If this is directed at me, yes that is the model number of my device.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
That's what I'm saying bro, **** is crazy

Same device as you.

I changed enhancing speed to High and changed RAM Plus to 256MB but I'm scared to run Antutu again. Don't think I want my battery seeing that level of heat again.
[General Topics] StratoS117:
I'm kinda surprised it didn't heat up like that the first time but I don't think I'll be running that benchmark app any more in the near future. I'd rather not cook my device haha. Hell even in Genshin it doesn't get that hot.

Yep it is the Snapdragon model of the S22U.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Yeah I can run COD mobile for an hour straight at max frame rate with GOS disabled and it doesn't even get that hot.
[General Topics] StratoS117:
Honestly I wouldn't risk damaging your device via thermals. It's just a benchmark number at the end of the day.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
