Blu_spark kernel gaming performance - OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

People are stating that the performance is much improved after flashing the kernel. So I want to ask how does GTA sanandreas run on the device is it comparable to the ONEPLUS ONE ? Could anyone maybe upload a short sample to youtube of the game running at max settings on the device with the Blu_spark kernel ?
Video I found of gta performance with stock kernel skip to 2:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCfUUhp_M54

With Blu spark it's exactly as one plus one performance.

Possible yes but not with Blu spark. Noone working on it as far as I know. Eng.stk could implement it in Blu spark but does not want to, which is the correct decision in my opinion.

Why wouldn't it be the correct decision ? it could be completely optional

Yeah. I wish that someone would even make a 2.5ghz possible as optional. People that tweak with kernels usually know what they are doing plus one setting that is above the normal values would not even bloat it. Also we have thermal limit that will kick in that there will be no damage. It would be nice to experiment just a little bit.
Ps. Still one helluva kernel. Thanks to eng.stk

Great kernel. I use it on CM 13 with an incredible undervolt. I'd bet I could hit even 2.8ghz easily and stay under stock voltages. Loving it for everything else though.

Been my daily driver for a week. 729mhz was unstable so I had to raise it to 730mv from 725, but its great. Hence why I'd like more options for frequencies haha. I think I have an insanely high binned chip even though its an AA model. Can't wait to see what frequencies I can hit though.

Im just testing right now my new voltage values.
Now it seems like 930mv is also working for me. Not crashed after 3dmark, asphalt 8 and stability test. Also lowered 1900mhz to 915mv.
I think i can crash this with gta san andreas though.
E: WTF??? On OOS i could not uv under 950mv, but now i can. No crash and no slowdowns. Actually got a score of 1080 with 3dmark cloudgate. O_O

925 actually works too, but I had a few bugs. Rule of thumb is generally 10mv above whatever works so I settled with 935. I will test 930 though. Had to raise 1900 to 910. 905 gave me issues in stability testing.

The Phone is stable at these settings.

Now try a stress test from the play store. One of them uses root for scaling. Test each frequency for 15 minutes

excuse me for being a noob, but, what's the main advantage of undervolting the cpu? is it done to achieve a longer battery life? it does not limit performance right?
i'm a new opx user and just flashed this awesome kernel and i'm interested in boosting performances of this awesome device.
may i have your current cpu volt setup? thanks a lot, sir.

You dont want to use anyones voltage settings. Undervolting is random. Some people get amazing results while someone gets crashing.
Undervolting cpu makes the phone run cooler and will save a bit of battery also.
Less heat also means that the cpu will propably survive a bit longer. Same goes for battery because cpu temps affect the battery too.
You just need to test all the voltages yourself and see what works and what does not.
Always make a backup that if something goes wrong you can always restore the system.
Also if you undervolt dont go complaining to devs about crashing or system lockups.

i didn't know if it was going to be this difficult haha. i thought using the same settings should be okay since its a same chipset and all, but i think its worth a shot.
okay then i'll go straight to kernel adiutor and set my own voltages.
another question and sorry if its out of topic, im using twrp 2.8.7.0 at the moment, i can create backup but i can't restore the backup, the error mentions about locked systems or partitions, forgot the exact error code, any ideas?
thanks

Just install the latest bluspark TWRP. It is working fine for me.
You can chmod 755 or 775 the sd card in TWRP it could make things better????
Dont know for sure about that one though.
If i remember correctly you can use the chmod command in TWRP's fike manager.

[Q] Set CPU - How to overclock my SGA?

Hey guys,
I have just installed OmegaRom by Team Cooper and what a Rom it is!!! Amazing is an understatement.
Okay so with there new Rom v2, it has an OC kernal built in and it does work...BUT I need to know how to OC the thing safely and squeezing as much performance as possible!
I have it at 825 and min 806 mhz, scaler is performance.
What settings would you pro's recommened?
Thanks!
Edit 1- I am using SetCPU to OC.
"overclock" and "safe" cannot be use in the same sentence, it just wrong.
theres no safe overclocking. moreover each and every device is unique even for the same model.
what is working with others doesnt guarantee it'll works with yours.

What I meant was a stable OC that may work with my phone... I OC computers too so I know the risk's involved. So what I was asking was what OC's worked with peoples phones so I could get a rough idea on how to govern my cpu and OC it without totally messing it up.

i hope u are aware of the ill effects of OCing.....battery takes a real beating....well i have done it upto 886 mhz....many others have done it upto 1ghz mark...but i personally do not recommend...
CPU Tuner
I try CPU Tuner, is similar ti setCPU but is free whit THE END 3.0 custom ROM and use the 864-254 mhz for screen on and 480-122 for screen off whitout problems, previously I use 904 mhz, but sometime it freeze...

I have OCed it to 902 mhz..
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Thanks for the comments guys... Gives me a rough estimate on its limits.
So far I have been running 844mhz performance for a while, since I created this thread and the battery has remained at 82%!
I have benched using AnTuTu twice and have excellent read and write speeds, compared to other benchies I have seen, OmegaRom is the best Rom I have ever used!
Cheers,
i tried cpufrills and its the best for me
I don't Think U mustuse over clocking,even my setting was min245 max 902,the effect just draining more battery,and if using to much can damaging ur prosessor
I know you might think what I'm going to write is unnecessary and going to contradict with your believes here. but I'm going say it anyway.
If you are going to use your device for a long time then I would suggest not to overclock too much. You'll know when something will go wrong with your over-clocking. Your SGA would start rebooting randomly. Heating up would be excessively common once you start overclocking, using your SGA while it's charging. Over clocking will definitely reduce your processor life span. People who do can over clock their device to get the max out of their device and know they're going to change the device in sometime later anyway.

Don't worry! Like I said, I have experience O/C'ing processors etc and I know how bad the effects can be! I am not going for a massive overclock at all. Just a tiny bump in the speed. At the moment, I am running 825mhz and already the speed has improved dramatically. I may go a little further but 902mhz is a bit mental for my liking.

now hat we're unlocked lets overclock and undervolt and see if we can get 10k quadrant and a week out of the battery..lol
no but seriously how much do you guys think we can turn this thing up (overclock) and it be stable? (like its really needed..i cant get it to lag now as it is) once we get a kernel that is

I was looking stuff up on that today. The highest I could find documented was 1900 on the cpu and 800 on the gpu.
For everyday usage, overclocking is useless, even for gaming. Undervolting can be beneficial, but from what I've seen, the latest processors get approximately the same battery life on stock voltage as they do undervolted.

I just like to play around with different kernels but the kernel I was using def made the device snappier and I had some killer benchmarks! But you are right though! Custom kernels on this device is not really necessary...
I plan on building a custom kernel then, hopefully tomorrow night or possibly Saturday. I do have some plans to improve it, but nothing related to the CPU or GPU going faster, just having other stuff operate better and getting rid of anything not needed.

HA. My TBolt stayed stable at 1200, but ANYTHING higher than that and it would crap out on me.
I could run my bolt stable at 1700 all day. Kept it at 14 for a month no issues. Stayed at 13 the rest of the time. Course at 17 it was like it was running on a watch battery with the amount of time it would last. Lol
Eh I ran 1.6Ghz on my Thunderbolt 24/7 and with the 2750mah battery it lasted me days.
On a phone like that there was a significant improvement to the end user that justified the overclock. Now on the Note 2 I'd expect there to be very few who would want an overclock at all. I am part of the very few however. I play a lot of emulators on my phone and for N64 and Playstation I need all the raw CPU power I can get. Yep, even on this beast of a phone I still get some lag and stuttering on those emulators. The reason being is the same as PC gaming. AMD thinks that by adding more and more cores to their processors they can win the performance arena. Unfortunately they are wrong. Intel has the right idea, 4 cores is plenty now let's improve the efficiency and performance of those specific cores.
Same goes for our phones. Quad core is the most I'd ever want in my computers, anymore is just a waste. Now let's get better architecture for the processor to maximize clock-for-clock performance. And overclocking those cores helps it in apps that don't support more than one or two cores, because the baseline performance for each core is boosted.
So yeah, can't wait for a 1.8Ghz kernel

CPU Throttling to 1Ghz

Hello all
I have a bit of a small problem. I like to run my phone using the Performance Governor but after a while it goes to 1Ghz on all 4 cores despite me running it at 1.8Ghz. Setting it back seems to correct the issue but in time it goes down again.
I believe it is getting a bit warm and thus it hits a limit and the system auto slows to 1Ghz.
Can anyone confirm this behaviour? It never happened to me before but I have had a few kernel updates and updates to the Omega ROM that could be the cause but I am not sure. Is there a setting where I can tell my phone what temps to throttle at?
Also, I assume all this is down to the Kernel and not the ROMs?
Would like some imput regards where to start my search to return my phone to its previous state as a pocket heater.
Many Thanks

1.8Ghz is not healthy for the CPU in the long run and will cause overheating which is exactly what you are currently seeing.
Especially since you keep the phone on 100% CPU power all the time (performance governor) which should drain battery like hell as a side effect.

This is down to your settings. Neither rom nor kernel.
- Don't overclock (much)
-Use a good kernel such as Siyah
-Undervolt if the phone remains stable
-Use pegasusq Governor

Hi buddy and thanks for your response.
I am not sure about what you said regarding it working correctly, it gets the best results for any benchmark compared to others so I would be interested in more detail about the specifics of how its not working correctly as I have never been told that. It would be appreciated.
I dont mind the battery drain although I do heed your warning about about longevity of the CPU.
I have been using Siyah Kernel for some time now and I find undervolting a little unstable, for now I am forced to use pegasusq.
Can you or anyone else answer the original question as I still wish to pursue this to a resolve other than not using it.
Many thanks for your time and efforts non the less!

it´s samsung´s based roms related: when the battery temp hits 41C the cpu will throttle. Nothing related with de cpu temp (can be at 80C before throttles).
try CM10.1 and you´ll see what im talking about.
We need a solution for this throttling with samsung based roms

(MOD) Undervolting settings for any kernel!!

These settings have been tested by me all night and all day checking the timesnin each clock state and if it failed it would be a simple fix . This is as stable as can be lowering your temps and increasing batterylife!! No more screen dimming. I stopped the undervolting process at 1728mhz because at 2265mhz regardless the phone would overheat
So here are the specs below
300mhz----750mv
422mhz----750mv
652mhz----750mv
729mhz----750mv these are as low as I could go
883mhz----760mv
960mhz----770mv
1036mhz---780mv
1190mhz---790mv
1267mhz---800mv
1497mhz---810mv
1574mhz---820mv
1728mhz---830mv
These settings are to be inputted directly into setcpu via voltage table proven to work
These settings are also tested daily and improved where flawwed
I figured i would post this since there isnt a single post with manual voltage specs
Good info thanks!
You got it!!
Have any voltages setting for OC?
Are these settings good for gaming?
As posted these voltages are strictly for batterylife however does just fine on gaming. I will work on oc voltages once the cpu limiter is removed from any kernel unfortunate it would be pointless to overclock this handset
Why can't I adjust voltage settings on a stock kernel? I don't get an option to do it in the fauxclock app...

you do know we already have 2 over clocked kernels for tw. so its not exactly pointless.
These settings are for people who want batterylife and to enjoy theyre phone without the screen dimming on them from the cpu overheating on them.. i dont see a point in overclocking the phone. Maybe some quadrants and horrible batterylife
There are some that want the most battery in a device. Others want the most performance. I and others are in the 2nd category. I personally have a zerolemon so battery life is a last priority for me seeing that underclocking this handset is pointless to me. But to each their own. I do aprreciate you taking the time to find out these voltages but to some OC is just as addictive as flashing roms themselves lol!
Thats fine you can enjoy your screen dimming 2.7ghz while i have the zero lemon and underclocked at 1728mhz and undervolted lasting 6 or more days and still screaming fast. Sure there isnt a point to it huh

1574mhz---820mv 900
1728mhz---830mv 915
Stock Kernel Nope.
This WILL not work on a stock TW kernel as SETCPU or Voltage control do not have the ability. The only way to change voltages (unlike the title claims) is to flash a NON stock kernel first.

This is due to variation in chips, when the processors are manufactured they are tested, separated by performance, and priced accordingly (this is called 'product binning'). Those of you using OP's settings with no issues have similar or better processors, and likely could undervolt further.

yes true and i understand
my only reason for saying that is he has a note 2 in his signature plus we have a 2.3ghz processor soo y would it overheat?
plus our cores are handled bit different because we have a snapdragon and well the note 2 has a exynos processor :fingers-crossed:

The clock speed, voltage, and heat are all directly connected; changing any value will affect at least one of the others.

These theories are equally applicable to all processor types. The issue with these one-size-fits-all settings is we are using cpu's from multiple different bins, thus they can tolerate different voltages/clock speeds. It's also worth mentioning that 2 cpu's from the same bin will tolerate different settings (as they came from different wafers) and that even 2 cpu's from the same wafer will likely tolerate different settings (depending on it's location within the wafer).
In other news, I've found THIS extremely useful thread that explains how to go about revealing your bin # (Thanks @toastido for noting that KitKat changed location to /sys/devices/system/soc/soc0/soc_pvs :highfive. The thread also has multiple users end settings and benchmark results.
Last but not least, to finally answer your original question: I found in that thread that your original settings will vary depending on your bin # (There are no universal stock settings) but perhaps you can find someone who posted their original settings from the same bin that you have. Hope it helps, cheers :good:

KonaBess [GPU overclock & undervolt] OnePlus 8 PRO

Let's share best configs for OnePlus 8 PRO. Anyone used it?
What is this?
A simple app that can custom GPU frequency and voltage tables without recompiling the kernel, compatible for Snapdragon 865 series, 855 series, 888, 765 series, 750 / 690 series and 780G.
How it works?
By unpacking Boot / Vendor Boot image, decompiling and editing relevant dtb (device tree binary) files, and finally repacking and flashing.
Why "KonaBess"?
"Kona" is the code name of Snapdragon 865 series.
Snapdragon 888 's GPU has minus improvement in energy efficiency, thus we are able to overclock sd865 and beat it. And this is the reason why the app was born.
Though sd888 is compatible now, the app name won't change.
How much improvement can I get?
I see someone undervolted his sd865, reducing power cost 25% in gfx(4.2w->3.2w) bench.
In fact, it is chip-specific and depends on your stability requirements.

Very helpfull if you provide example, also is it possible to under volt CPU too?
Who testing this solution? Works and safe ?
this worked wonders. I can play pubg and genshin impact with basically not that much heat and throttling

let us know what settings have you applied
Here's my config for less heat while trying to achieve maximum performance:

Paste and delete spaces.
I experience very rare artifacts in Dolphin Emulator with this config, so if you all suggest some changes, you're welcome.
Is there any tutorial for this?
CPU uv its possible this app?
I've been using this in combination with mslezak's fork of the Radioactive kernel. Undervolting works even on the overclocked gpu settings. It's fantastic.
For anyone wondering how to get this to work on stock, make a backup and offload it onto the pc first so you can recover in case of a failure.
Open the frequency settings and add a new frequency under the "Snapdragon 865" menu that matches the highest clock frequency in the "Snapdragon 865+" menu. They should be identical before proceeding. Hit the save button.
Edit the gpu volt table next, there's no submenus, it's all on one table. Hit the save button after any changes before you press the repack and flash button. "MIN_SVS" is the lowest voltage while the "Turbo" settings are the highest.
Do small changes, flash, then benchmark checking for artifacts and crashes.
Config v1
Overclocked and undervolted. If you see any artifacts, just bump voltage level up
Edit, removed.
No adreno boost.

yes, on high clocks voltage is set, editing lower clocks rn, giving rare artifacts in games. i will upload a new one soon

I will wait for your stable configuration
Edit, since nobody cared to read or give feedback i'm going to remove the config, idc if someone renames it and shares it, just know that i'm not responsible for any damages. Did my warnings, waited for some time and still got no feedbacks. Fine for me, and i will not give a v4, i will keep it to myself this time.

Latest should be fine. Tested drainage between 295mhz and new voltage vaules of 4xxmhz, they differ like -40 -50mA which is ok considering clock difference. Should be stable now. Im not getting any artifacts or glitches.

If you manage to stabilize everything, I would be very grateful for sending the configuration. I care about the highest stability, energy efficiency and low temperatures.
