Dirty Unicorns ROM discussion

[ABotelho23]

Yes exactly !! I mean op3 has an amoled display and the required low power sensors. Power consumption should be very low after some optimisations. Even then you could still give it as an option to us. I mean freaking n5 has it and it doesn't have an amoled display and maybe isn't all that optimised considering its way past its time:silly:

We know for a fact it would be very low. I didn't notice a difference with it on or off on OOS and sultanxda's cm13.

Hence why I'm trying to find another ROM. I'm just pissed at DU's entire way of interacting with its community frankly. It's gotten to the point of condescending. Even OmniROM basically gave me the finger when I asked if their ROM had a pocket mode. I'll Probably go back to sultan's cm13. It's marshmallow but it's so solid and the guy's not a ****.

Wait even Omni doesn't have pocket mode and wave gestures ?

Please keep in mind that reporting bugs or asking for features here wouldn't mean much. You'll have to contact the du team through proper channel​.

This is just an unofficial discussion thread for du users and fans

That's exactly the same case with me too mate. I even posted a feature request on Jira for this feature to be implemented but there was too much of a battery drain bcoz of it

But it does not have many features and it's stock kernel is eas based which is still quite new and not that optimised. I have tried Zenity RR and render's kernel but even the eas there was not much of a performer and battery life was also not that great

I also tried zenity's RR and I didn't really like it, had exactly the same opinion of eas then. Then I tried vertex os and wow. I really think you should try it. Plus the dev is actually open to feature requests.

I noticed in vertex ROM thread that the Dev is open to feature requests which are very limited and doesn't go too far from a clean aosp experience. It's just too limited for me regardless of its performance or battery life. Thanks for the suggestion though, appreciate it:highfive:

Link to the ROM? I can't find it! Sounds sweet

Nope! Although I'll probably wait a few days and post in their Jira.

Here's the link for vertex ROM. It's there in the cross Dev forums

There is no mystery in this. Conservative governors scale slowly. While the "famous" ones scale quickly.

Whenever there is a load, the cpu should scale up quickly, finish the task and then go back to sleep asap. Conservative governors scale up and down slowly.

Now how this affects the "scrolling test". We perform the test by rapidly scrolling up and down. The "famous governors" will try scale up and then quickly come down too. As the frequencies drop you may see a few frames go above the green 60fps line.

Conservative govs due to their slow nature main relatively stable frequencies during scrolling which gives them an advantage in fps.

But in real world, I don't see a scenario where we need to scroll up and down like we do in scrolling test. Thus the benefit of using conservative appears to be very limited. Secondly as long as you are below the green line (60fps) it doesn't matter. Our eyes cannot differentiate between 70 and 80 fps. But conservative governors here are at a loss because during heavy loads such as gaming, sometimes the scaling is too slow resulting in framedrops and freezes.

I have been experimenting with interactive + zzmoove (another conservative governor) since even before XDA wrote about it. Yes it feels smooth but games sometimes lag.

This is just a crude explaination which I found out from my experience. If anybody has a better explanation, they are welcome to share it

Just wanted to confirm that your explanation makes sense and actually matches real life tests I performed these days.

To achieve the best smoothness while scrolling and in animations, and obtain good gaming performance, too, I ended up creating two profiles with Kernel Adiutor and firing them with Tasker when launching a game and when exiting it.

The new stock kernel included in Dirty Unicorns performs pretty well!

Hi I'm on OFFICIAL DU 11.2 on OnePlus 3. My phone gets hot even during normal usage as well as during charging. This has never happened on any other ROM. Does anyone else's phone gets hot while normal use too? Any help?

P.S. I've SuperSU and arise installed. Also how should collect information to show you guys?
Thanks!

Never experienced excessive heating during charge, just a little bit as anyone would expect.

If you want help learn how to properly report your **** if you want some help....by stating that your device is hot , doesn't mean anything....

That's what I'm trying to do. I just don't know how to properly report a bug, how to collect information for you guys.

Ok, so, I've reported the bug: http://jira.dirtyunicorns.com/browse/DU11-221
