NEW TWEAKS!!!!!!!!!! 07/09/15

Hey there guys,
This is my first XDA thread and I am here to share some battery tweaks by my friend @Naman Bhalla. I am using Oneplus 2 rooted on stock rom with unofficial uber Boeffla Kernel by @ZaneZam.
These tweaks will work with all Snapdragon 810 devices. Naman and I and a few fellow Oneplus 2 owners have tested them and our battery life have increased significantly. These tweaks controls the qualcomm power drivers which are poorly messed up. You will need a root explorer like ES File Explorer to edit the files.

Here are the tweaks:
1. sys\module\qpnp_fg\parameters
here you will find 4 files. open the file debug_mask and change the value from 0 to 1 and sense_type from 1 to 0
2. sys\module\qpnp_smbcharger\parameters
here you will find 12 files. open the file vf_adjust_high_threshold and change the value to 99 and vf_adjust_low_threshold to 55.

My screen on time increased from 5h10min average to nearly 7hours. that is almost a 50% increase! The only problem with these tweaks is that it will not stick after a reboot but there are only 4 files to edit and most of them are from the same folder, thus it is not much of a hassle to do that after every reboot. They will also not have any impact on performance and only improve battery life.
Have fun and Enjoy the tweaks!

NEW TWEAKS! 7/09/15
Tweak 1
The file I am uploading now is the a config file to manage the thermals. It is tested ONLY ON BOEFFLA KERNEL so use it at your own risk if you are on other kernels.
The file is located in system\etc.
Steps:
1. Open Boeffla-Config app and go to the MISC 1 tab
2. Change system tweaks to Thermal-Custom
3. replace the file using a root explorer, ES File Explorer recommended
4. Reboot and you are set to go

This will stick after reboot unlike the tweaks before.
Download link for the thermal-engine.config file.

Tweak 2
sys\module\qpnp_fg\\parameters\first_est_dump to 1
sys\module\qpnp_fg\parameters\debug_mask to 1
sys\kernel\slab change cpu_slab in all :at folders to 99, cpu_partial to 5, min_partial to 58

thats all for the new tweaks for 7/09/15. Sorry for the slight delay in upload have been busy. Enjoy and post results!

Credits to @Naman Bhalla for providing me with the tweaks

Im using impulse on A53 and ElementalX on A57 with both underclock to 1248MHz and 1344MHz respectively. Before you say thats under powered I play clash of clans with that setting and is as smooth as stock.

I think I might be seeing some improvements already. Edited the files as per tweak instructions, usually got around 6h SOT; 60% battery left atm with almost 3h SOT, would probably equate to somewhere around 7+h SOT. Not bad at all!

An init.d script that runs on boot would probably be more helpful, I guess you'd still have to flash the zip before every bootup

Not at this moment. Maybe some Developer might see this thread and help us. Developer or person with enough knowledge. And @TheZorg is right you will have to flash it every reboot

The perfect solution would be something like, dunno, implementing the tweaks ROM-side or kernel-side, if they prove to be stable and effective. So far so good though
