Q/A

Q/A:
  1. How to bypass wakelock?
    - Open file /etc/init.d/81SEMAR_WAKELOCK using explorer which support root. Change value after "echo" to $DISABLE (to disable/bypass wakelock), $ENABLE (to enable wakelock)
  2. What is musiqmod? and how to enable it?
    - Musiqmod is a additional feature to DT2W to control music player only when jack input connected. Just enable DT2W and insert your headphone, double tap about 1/3 of screen from top. You will get play/pause, next, and prev control.
  3. What is Pocket Detection?
    - Pocket Detection is used for preventing device wakeup when wake control enabled. So if you put your phone in your pocket, you don't have to worry your device will wakeup accidently.

hello Mr AW,
my device is lenovo A6000 with 1giga of ram , and i'm using nexus experience marshmallow custom rom on my device , after flashing "SEMAR KERNEL" (Release 3) , i got some issues ,
1- sound control , after setting my value and close kernel adiutor, if i get run kernel adiutor again i got the sound control value that i set it before got changed , and also screen control , after changed the value from custom screen to stock screen and get run kernel adiutor again also i got it changed back to custom screen .
2- and there's some another parameters also get changed with it self such as "maxmum cores to allowed , vdd restriction.
3-the most important thing, every day at morning and when i turn on the wifi or 4g data for a first time the device should hanging and freezing for a minute until i got my notifications from whats app or my gmail. and fyi , i didn't have a lot of applications installed on my phone, it's only face book ,whats app , gmail , beside bullit in applications and i don't have any games.

No matter what ROM I try i face this issue. I don't face this issue on more powerful phones. I guess we've got to live with it.

My Setting :
- CPU : MAX 1.2Ghz - MIN 400Mhz or 533Mhz
* Governors =
1. Smartmax
2. Alucard
Freq Responsiveness = 988400

- HotPlug (choose one) :
* MSM (Smoothness)
Min Cpu Online = 2
Cpu Boosted = 1
Update Rate = 10
Fast Lane Load = 120
* Bricked HotPlug > [ Prefer to this if u facing Lags ]
Min Cpu Online = 1-2
Idle Frequencies = 533Mhz
- Runque Threshold per CPU
For "hotplugged" raise 10-15%
For "unplugged" raise 10-30% (Acumulative)
- Time Threshold per CPU
For "unplugged" raise 10-20ms
* Mako or Alucard (Battery)

- Thermal
* IntelliThermal : on
* Frequency Throttle Temp : 80-90 degree
(More you increase it, more time the CpuCores not going to shutingdown because of Heating)

- GPU : MIN 100Mhz - MAX 400Mhz
- Wake Controls : up to you
- FastCharge : ON
- I/O Scheduller : Noop 512Kb
- Virtual Memory :
Dirty Expire Centisecs : 200
Dirty Writeback Centisecs : 3000
Swapiness = 70
VFS Cache Pressure = 80
- TCP Congestion Algorithm = westwood

# i dont use IntelliPlug in Semar Kernel, because all the cores are always on and draining battery. When compared to PhantomReborn IntelliPlug, it has better optimization (its like @dev_harsh1998 tunning it, am i right??). The same IntelliPlug profile " Conservative " with different cpu runque and different BatteryBackup.

# Combining Gov and HP for the best result
- Alucard + MSM (Balanced)
- Smartmax + MSM (Balanced Perfomance)
- Bioshock + Bricked (Perfomance)

Thanks for your feedback. So Semar Kernel compatible with Stock Lollipop x32.
Stock ROM need wlan module to load. So next release I will make Semar support module.

    Mr. AW
    Release 5

    hi guys,
    Semar release 5 is out.

    In this release I've tried to fix in call volume low issue. I hope it has been fixed in release 5. Please give some feedback.
    Some users says that this issue is caused by faux sound control. So in this release I've removed faux sound. But I still don't get it why faux sound caused in call volume low. I'll keep analyze it, and will bring back faux sound control feature.
    Call detection for wake gesture also has been fixed. But please leave feedback too.
    Not only faux sound removed, I've removed sdcardfs feature too, I think this feature is good. e.g. you can move your app to external card without any app (only for Nougat, 7.1.1). But not all ROMs support sdcardfs. you will have random reboot issue.
    Some improvement to make semar stable and battery friendly.

    If you face battery drain issue, please give me SS of BBS(Better Battery Stats). I'll help you out figuring what is the caused of battery drain. If it comes to kernel, I'll try my best to fix it.
    But sometimes It's not come from kernel, It comes from apps and services (I'm using Tesla N and the caused of battery drain is from google services). So, please use battery saver app like greenify.

    I think that's all,
    Please don't be shy to leave your feedback to get semar kernel more stable.
    As always...

    Have a great day guysss :cowboy:
