Hello Ace. If you don't mind, where can I take a look at the commits that you made to permit GPU OC >572MHz? I'd like to get insight into what it was that was limiting GPU, or if it's something you changed to make bigger GPU OC work.

Again?

See GPU commits history.

Hmmm i think you feel something wrong about the freq
Are you feel same like me?
When you OC the gpu the game increase fps and stable but in while of game play it will lag again even same freq and very good cooling system in my position i've been add more heatpipe in this phone

Gpu and cpu performance is very well improve in office use,content creator stuff, or some heavy work load of multitasking
But not gaming i dont know why but

I have tune the ram to reach goal les latency and it improve the game overtime

Are you feek the same ? Or just me?

Or maybe other people same like me?


Or maybe the alexis rom get the trouble

I want back to use stock rom but i can't because korean stock rom always bootloop after flash kernel in my case

Oh is see there was already answered lol. Ignore my message

 

[Just_try]

Yes but that doesn't matter. It's a bad and outdated solution for heat transfer.

Try use cooler
Are you using for gaming?, isn't?

Insane benchmark of course

For real insane
Real :v

Imagine a phone draw over 15watt power

Peltier watercooling system

Why not running sling shot extreme? It's more appropriate for this phone.
And btw I get similar score with stock cooling for sling shot unlimited.

Ummm at that video made that was secons test btw and i dont know which most heavy

And my phone is phone not pc anymore hehe
But have 2 heatpipe maybe next 3 i will insert it

if you want to test your GPU cooling, use sling shot extreme unlimited. This cause max heat and power consumption.

For max heat on CPU, Geekbench 5, is still the best.

Okey dev

Can someone send me some screens for some good presets in a2n pro app for best performance? My alt phone runs so sluggish rn

New Kernel and App are Up!

Hi Guys,
I'm very happy to provide to you one more update for this phone.
Probably this is our final build since everything is optimized to the max and it works stable. But like always, "never say never".
Of course if there is some critical security leak that could appear in the future in the Linux/Android kernel that could affect the security of this phone, then it'll be fixed ASAP.


Changelog

A2N Kernel R59

• Re-enabled CONFIG_MEMCG - to reduce memory usage
• LMK/HPA: updated driver for better memory management - by me
• CPU/GPU: updated voltages - increased a bit for stability
• Fixed USB-JIG feature
• SELinux: fake enforcing enabled by default
• LMK: updated minfree values to work more efficient with updated LMK driver
• Init: removed init.d.a2n - instead we use now default init.d folder

A2N Kernel Control V59

• GPU: improved "Gaming Mode"
• RAM: simplified swap control
• CPU/GPU: added ability to check temperature
• Updated defaults & fixed bugs

Flash and enjoy like always!

I tested GPU overclock in games. It’s genuine. It’s just that the performance increase is not as big. In Honkai Impact 3rd, we need 764MHz to match G72 MP18 at 598MHz. G72 is faster than we thought in games, but it’s about as fast in compute workloads. It’s an odd case really.

OK guys, new release is fully rolled-out!

For max performance and best gaming/benchmark experience, you can use the following settings:

DVFS max temp for CPU/GPU 100 °C
do CPU/GPU OC or use profile "Performance Plus".
CPU lit/big: enable "Boost"
GPU: enable "Gaming Mode"
RAM: enable "Use Swap" (zRam Size 50 %)

This will be your most fast and smooth experience ever on this phone!

please dont forcing users to update the kernel controll app. The prev. version is stable for me, i dont want to update the kernel now.

 

[DetsuneXDA]

Hey, ace! yesterday I updated the kernel and kernel app but now have some bugs:
The smartphone lag for a few seconds
System UI Not responding some times (bubble appears asking to wait or close)

I think that's all.
Thanks!

 

[Twiq]

latest build is awesome, i can tell it's more conservative just by the endurance .. 21 1/2 hrs since last charge with almost 3hrs SOT is definitely amazing

 

[ace2nutzer]

Thanks for your feedback guys, I really appreciate this.

Foe those that feels memory management is now worse instead to be better, I suggest to wipe a2n app settings to be on new kernel & app defaults and then to reconfigure the a2n app.
It's now more user friendly.

For instance as you may noticed, zRam @ 50 % is no longer enabled by default. That means you need to enable it in a2n app RAM "use swap".

After you are done with reconfigure a2n app, please reboot your phone and see if it's working better.

Guys whats the best settings for battery life with a2n, i have only the demo version, and s8 light rom, can u say me the best settings thank u very much

Kernel defaults are already optimized for battery life. You may need to enable zram over init.d and set swappiness @ 175. In demo version some settings can't be changed.
