Welcome to my development home for onyx!

I maintain everything here in a group:
https://plus.google.com/communities/103441900083010096587/stream/237ea2cb-77d3-434f-837a-ef4471c71648

It helps me better manage everyone interested in my projects as a whole, and I feel I can communicate better there as well.

Join the conversation on Hangouts: https://hangouts.google.com/group/OxMekFikwSRywab43

Here are my ongoing projects for onyx:

Kernel: Codsworth CAF for CM and CAF based ROMs
ROM: AOSPA [WIP]
Kernel: Rudolph for OOS [WIP]

Those are my goals at this moment in time.

I appreciate all of you using my work. It's great to know that someone besides me is able to benefit from it. User feedback is the basis of what I do, so don't be afraid to speak out.

And as usual,

Enjoy!

Recommended settings- if I didn't post it, I didn't change it

Finally Practical makes it's appearance on XDA.
It's the best kernel for onyx that I've used .

What are some of the roms that go with this kernel?
The best ROM combination with this kernel that I've found is Cardinal. Try Cardinal+Practical and you will love it :)

@RJDTWO

Thanks so much for the hard work.

I used this kernel few days ago for just 2 hours. Got the kernel from the telegram. My findings may not be correct but I like to share. Again, I may not be right. You know I am your fan so I will not try to flame you.

- I used zzmove performance (profile 8) overclock to 2.5ghz. Antutu benchmark score is very low at just 50k. When I used your Project Starkiller or Swell, I can easily hit over 60k.
- Above 2.5ghz is not stable. Got FC immediately after changing the maximum clock speed.
- Same as my earlier findings for voltage for USB and AC Charging. I did mentioned for your other kernels earlier. They appear in kernel aduitor (using GZR) but will revert back to 0 after changing. It's not working.


That's all. I will flash again once there's updates.



FYI, when flashing new kernel, I will always dirty flash ROM then supersu and so on before flashing new kernel.

I know you don't support non-caf roms, but is the audio bug from swell with validus still there?

and what things are broken with no-caf roms? better use starkiller, right?

The version I posted here is newer. I removed AC and USB settings. Starkiller will have higher performance but please don't qoute benchmarks on everything. They are useless. I'm releasing Practical for non CAF ROMs in a month or so. Hold on. I'm not interested in performance with this. Don't over clock. Its pointless.

I will be trying this today! On another note I'd like recommend the settings I use for the Interactive governor (as well as others) that's gotten me decent battery life but smooth operation:

Above_highspeed_delay: 20000 1700000:40000
Boost: 0
Boostpulse_duration: 80000
Go_highspeed_load: 50
Highspeed_freq: 1190400
io_is_busy: 0
min_sample_time: 60000
sampling_down_factor: 0
sync_freq: 0
target_loads: 80 1190400:99
timer_rate: 20000
up_threshold_any_cpu_freq: 0
up_threshold_any_cpu_load: 0

Edit: on CM I've turned off Align_windows and set Target_loads to just "50" for a bit of a boost.

Basically your device will stay at lower frequencies (for you underclockers out there..) while keeping the device smooth and fast. I'm writing this because I've noticed almost every kernel defaults to highspeed frequencies being 2.2ghz and the Go HighSpeed load is always 99 which basically nullifies the Above_highspeed delay.

Great settings for Interactive! Most of the governors with my kernel are rather conservative. Smartmax Darkness and Alucard to name a few. CPUQuiet is also really good about deciding when and when not to plug cores so it leads to a rather conservative experience
