[MOD] LCD TWEAKS (FPS - RESOLUTION) for Better Battery Life [V4 BIG UPDATE]

[BuLLeT_93]

--- Before install the mod ensure that BUSYBOX is installed, otherwise download Busybox On Rails from Play Store and install. ---

Added updated v4 ZIP (New version)


Introduction
First of all, excuse to all for my poor English.
This mod was born studying deeper my G3 for achieve the best battery life.
It is more simple but most efficient.
It's tested on Stock Rom but may work on AOSP rom, only difference probably it's the DPI values.
__________________________________________________

Read Carefully

Don't work with Stock Kernel (the values doesn't exist here)

Both A and B version works on all ROM without any problem.
If use BL93_LCD-MOD RESOLUTION on Stock based rom with G4 UX and G4 apps and have graphics problem or FC, consider that G3 is not G4 and all ported things are not native for G3.

BEFORE INSTALL RESOLUTION MOD CHANGE "ro.sf.lcd_density=" (DPI) VALUES IN "build.prop" FILE TO 528 OR 530 OR 532 ONLY IN STOCK BASED ROM.

IF YOU INSTALL ONLY v4A OR v4B DON'T NEED TO EDIT DPI
__________________________________________________

What the mod do and how it works
In practice i've scaled the resolution (initially for personal taste) and reduced the FPS from 60 to 50.
For best experience and less lag i recommend to use Gabriel Kernel from my friend @mostafaz
[KERNEL] [Lollipop] [Stock] [Gabriel5.] [D855]

Versions
But here we have two different version:
Splitted FPS and Resolution Mod
- v4A (Battery) FPS. Stick the FPS to 50 instead 60 (reduced a lot the lag from 2.2 version, fluid and smooth)
- v4B (More performance) FPS. Set the frequency dinamically, 60 FPS when touch the screen and 50 FPS in idle. (Fixed Random Reboots from 2.3 version)
- Resolution v4 Zip Scale resolution to 1125x2000 (Fixed bootloop from v4 version, it work properly, changed code radically).
__________________________________________________

How to check if the mod works
For Resolution Mod:

- Open Terminal Emulator
- Type "[COLOR="Red"]su[/COLOR]" and then press enter (without quotes)
- Type "[COLOR="Red"]wm size[/COLOR]" and then press enter (without quotes)
If here we have "[COLOR="Red"]Override size: 1125x2000[/COLOR]" the mod work fine!

For A and B Mod:

[B][COLOR="Red"]Method for [COLOR="Blue"]v4A[/COLOR] (Work also for CM Users)[/COLOR][/B]
- Open file explorer
- Go to "/sys/devices/platform/g3-display.0/devfreq/g3-display.0/"
- Check "[COLOR="Red"]cur_freq[/COLOR]" file, if values is [COLOR="Blue"]50[/COLOR] the mod work fine!

[B][COLOR="Red"]Method for [COLOR="Blue"]v4B[/COLOR] (Work also for CM Users)[/COLOR][/B]
- Open file explorer
- Go to "/sys/devices/platform/g3-display.0/devfreq/g3-display.0/"
- If "[COLOR="Red"]min_freq[/COLOR]" values is [COLOR="Blue"]50[/COLOR] and "[COLOR="Red"]max_freq[/COLOR]" is [COLOR="Blue"]60[/COLOR] the mod work fine!

Working Perfectly
Smart Man
Thnx

Got this running, for a smaller screen DPI that still allows for good reading, try setting the DPI to 420, works perfect if you are used to 530 on stock resolution.

great mod and thanks!

Just one observation - I am using the original flip cover from LG which has a circle opening at the front for the clock whenever closed.

With the mod, the clock doesn't show automatically anymore when front cover is closed. When alarm goes off, it also doesn't give the option of snooze/dismiss without opening the front cover

Could you post a mod that reverts the effects.
I have a low DPI (everything looks big) I cant get it back to normal dpi.
Tried re-flashing the rom but it doesnt work.

 

[Vit Riddare]

What is the purpose of changing our DPI? Is it necessary for the mod to work, or does it simply ensure that everything looks the same as before?

 

[niko626]

Trying it out now, thanks man. Will be reporting after 2 days. I have bad battery life with your config on Gabriel's. But still, I'll report

 

[punkmonkey1984]

It lowers the screen dimensions. So you need to set the DPI before the script changes from 1440 x 2560 to 1125 x 2000.

My DPI didnt save now i have massive icons, Flashing the firmware doesnt reset the changes.

Quick report. Native Music and Calc app crashes upon launch

 

[callmeshulah]

stock apps crash at dpi below 530, i use 534 and all stock apps work. maybe try that to fix clock on lockscreen?

 

[jfedealvarez]

Can we use dpi according to our needs? Or is it necessary to use your dpi?
