Hi there, this is the thread to share your rom and kernels setup and if also some mod that you use in your rome such as audio mod. Might be helpful for and the other users to try. Maybe some of you using MiUI Rom either chinese or global or xiaomi.eu or other MiUI based rom and maybe some of you using CM13 and aosp based rom.
Here is also some link for the kernels:

Some users like more battery backup on their device, some users like more performance on their device. So, which one is yours?
Share.... :highfive: Also it might be helpful if you share your kernel settings. Screenshot would be great :highfive:
My ultimate Kenzo-combo is:
1. Unofficial CM13 by Umang and DiamondBond. Why this over official CM13? Because I don't have to mess with all the camera fixes, everything is included by default. Plus as a bonus I get lightning-fast boot times and slightly quicker apps installation;
2. Radon V3.0.1 aka the most versatile, feature-rich and stable kernel for this device;
3. GovTuner 3.6 with the Balanced profile. The phone runs super-smooth while giving me solid 7-8 hours of actual use. Sure, I could go with more conservative settings and easily get 10-12 hours of SoT, but watching the phone stutter and lag is not for me.
4. Various little mods and adjustments, like the Goodix patch, build.prop tweaks ( disabling Camera2 API and bringing the LCD density down to 420 ), removing SoundFX libraries, heavily debloating the ROM and cleaning up some more system stuff like libraries and ringtones.
Overall this combo gives me the perfect day-to-day usage with no bullstuff, no crashes, no weird glitches and bugs. Everything is consistent, clean, smooth and stable.
CM14.1 can't come soon enough.

Unfortunately, I haven't used either of those mods, so I can't compare.
But after installing GovTuner I noticed a signifcant increase in smoothness and fluidity with no real decrease in battery life / SoT.

Can you explain how it improves? for example disabling Camera2 API? I use Denoisecamera (from this forum) but some options FC.. but the pictures are actually nice in my opinion... Would like to have a full working camera with at least a close enough quality to this app

It doesn't improve picture quailty, it improves the speed and responsiveness of the camera app. I don't care about picture quailty at all because I'm a student, so 99% of the pictures I take are textbooks, whiteboards and so on. I don't need any manual controls and denoise features for that. So, it improves the experience for me personally by making taking pictures faster and simpler.

I prefer to have a better battery backup (2days) but not in lieu of a great decrease in performance. The phone doesn't shutter or lag, smooth and I get about 10h SOT

*I have posted this in the Galaxy S III General Forum, i didn't know where to ask.
I'm getting a new ROM and it has options for which kernel i'd like to have, so i'm stuck to what kernel to choose.
Can anyone tell me whats the best one and why?
Just a heads up, people hate/lock these "better than" threads as it's offensive to developers time and efforts.
Look at the descriptions in detail, they all work on different kinds of versions/releases of roms, some are older versions of Android, some are stock S3 Android, some are for ported Samsung firmwares. And some, like Boeffla, provides many for all of them including CM, Samsung and older versions.
Personally I'd choose Boeffla as it generally always workes for whatever rom I use and has everything you can imagine, the best thing is perhaps the downloadable "Boeffla Config" app, which provides far more configuration features than any other kernel tweaker I've seen.. by far.
AGNi has some cool unique features, like additional filesystem support and a few niche features. Nothing to sway me personally.
ArchiKernel really only works with ported up-to-date Samsung roms with no frills or anything, just his usual optimisations which haven't really made an impact on general use tasks and gaming performance as far as I can tell.
Notable Boeffla settings:
GPU overclocking/underclocking. (I suggest not under clocking in the slightest as it brings the system to a crawling halt.)
Change charging rates.
Large collection of CPU governors.
Undervolting of CPU & GPU.
Tweaks presets.
Disabling of logging.
Large collection of sound tweaks.
Kernel
Personally I will recommend u to go for boeffla kernel as it has all essential features including sound tweaks
And if u are in Sensation Rom V6(android 4.4.2 and also for other 4.4.2 ROMS) then in boeffla app
Set ZRAM :-
Number of zram devices -4
Zram total disk size-600
And
set swappiness- 60
And you will get the best of Senation Rom with best multitasking and battery life!

What Is This??
If you got a good phone, it should have good specs. However, sometimes we do not get the performance we expect from our devices and in most cases it is due to faulty configuration of how hardware resources are used or the way the user uses a device.
We all expect good performance and battery life from the smartphone or tablets device we use. And if you think you are not getting that with the default settings of your device, there are ways to make it perform better in terms of speed, faster response, reduced lag and better battery efficiency. Thanks to the brilliant developer community we have as Android users that there are always some or other solutions to fix such things.
If you experience lag on your phone and think it’s not performing decently, you should give a try to the YoPro-Script mod by ShivaY. The mod targets various issues that usually concern users. It fixes low RAM issue, improves battery performance, reduces lag, adjusts CPU and GPU frequencies to the optimum, and so on. Below is a detailed list of things the script works its magic on:
Prevent Leaked RAM/system memory
Makes performance smoother
Lag fix
Better battery life
Balanced mod (gaming & multitask)
Net optimizer (responsive surfing)
Seeder (increases Entropy to reduce lag)
GPU Rendering (HW 3D force enable)
I/O Database Optimizer (SIO/Deadline : auto set. if there sio, sio will enable..if no, deadline will enable)
Storage Speed/Write Optimizer
CPU Governor Optimizer (Smartass/Hotplug/On-demand: auto set, if there Smartass, martass will enable.. if no, hotplug or on-demand will enable)
Touch responsive
Zipalign at boot (reduce footprint & optimized RAM usage)
Sound noise fixer
More…
Download YoPro-Script
YoPro-Script_v2.6_GB_JB_ICS_KK.Zip
Requirements
YoPro-Script mod has been tested and found working on a range of Android devices including the Nexus 5, Xperia Play, Huawei Honor, Galaxy Note 3 (with CM11), Galaxy Star, etc. The mod works on all Android devices running Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean and KitKat. Needless to say, you must have root access and a custom recovery (CWM/TWRP) to flash it. You also need to install the latest BusyBox. And yes, make sure you are not using any other custom scripts already. Another thing, we highly recommend you try it on a custom ROMs with init.d support.
How to Install
Download the mod file in zip from above and copy it to your phone.
Reboot your phone in recovery mode.
Make a nandroid backup first.
Then install the .Zip file and reboot device.
Thanks

What's the SOT?
I found best battery is stock rom 5.9.26S from ALBA in Russia forum you can download it here:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/3rWz/V8e4aZYBE
Or Madsurfer stock rom 5.9.26S with Sense home launcher
Nougat rom try Ground Zero roms Tipsy, Validus, Tesla normally it got pretty good battery life with good performance.

Used it last night for 2 1/2 hours sot to 50% so I'm assuming 6 hours. Just feels so much more smooth and solid than linage or RR or aosp based ROMs. Way smoother than eui.
It's miui8 port a little bit tricky to get it to boot properly the 1st time but well worth it I have Xposed installed. Freedom
Sent from my Le X820 using XDA Labs
I usually get 5.1/2 - 6 hours SoT on RR which is pretty decent. You just need to find the right settings for long battery life.
Small EUI could potentially outperform RR in the field of batterylife , but I just can't get used to EUI based ROMS after experiencing Nougat features.

I'm running 7.1.2 RR 27/05 build.
I changed the resolution to 1920*1080/420 dpi. It's more than enough for me, I see no point of watching 1440p content on a mobile screen.
I use Balanced Xana ATK profile (Settings->Leeco Extras->AKT profiles) and Greenify app to limit background running apps.
I turned off the logger buffer sizes (Developer settings). In Display settings turned on adaptive brightness and reduced power consumption (livedisplay). Also turned on batterysaving mode in location settings.
I would like to highlight that If I play any game (usually Mobile Legends) I get around 4 - 4 and a half SoT with approximately 1 hour gameplay.
I also tried out the newer build (02/06) but AKT profiles didn't work in that one (not noticed any differences in Kernel Adiutor), so I've decided to stay on this build for while. But I read that there are new powersaving features in the latest build, you might wanna check that out.

Interactive cpu governor, alucard hotplug, and no, i didn't underlock. But if you chose a AKT profile, you don't have to necessarily mess with kernel settings, the profile does that.
Now I'm on 13/6 build, so far it's fine. A bit laggy though, I think the BS 2.3 could cause that. Not noticed any difference in battery life.

Hey. Thank you for the great explanation! What was your on the 7.1.2 RR 27/05 build? Can you upload the kernel or the rom itself please? Thx
Edit: I think it can be bs 2.1. I'm using v13.07 of RR N. I flashed that bs kernel. I'm testing it with some Kernel A. changes and stock AKT. I'll add a few SS about my battery usage after the test
Hey guys, recently my father got tired of ****ty MIUI and wanted something better for his Mi 5. Since it's not my phone, I cannot test various ROMs and kernels by clean flashing them.
I just need one ROM that I can switch to on his phone from MIUI.
It needs to be 100% stable (he is sick of bugs), needs to have great calling and bluetooth connection, and great battery life.
Please let me know if such ROM exists for Mi 5, and which one is it
(Do you guys face any issues with bluetooth speakers or taking calls via bluetooth in car?)
You can start with jdcteam's aosp. Has been really solid for me.

I've been using LineageOS with 0 problems so far. But it does take some time to set it up that way. For instance, you need to flash the MIUI camera to improve camera performance, and under display calibration adjust the RGB values to 90% to prevent image retention (a problem on MIUI too).
I can confirm that Bluetooth works fine, calling is clear and battery life is good but not better/worse than MIUI. I haven't tried taking calls over a car's Bluetooth.
You should also check out the Xiaomi.eu weekly MIUI 9 builds as they usually fix what Xiaomi broke in their MIUI builds and are actually supported by Xiaomi.

Thank you for the recommendations guys. Are you using the stock kernel or any custom kernel like BB kernel, Nagatobimaru etc?
What is your opinion about AOSPA and RR ?
AOSP Extended all the way. Using it from past 3 months.

Nagatobimaru kernel has terrible battery life for me (like 1h30m SOT even though I was initially excited to try it out because it incorporates EAS). I use LOS stock freq kernel, which removes the underclock of the 32GB Mi5 from 1.8GHz to 2.15GHz but is otherwise just the stock LOS kernel. On this kernel I get between 3-4h30m SOT.
AFAIK LOS is the only ROM with display calibration and all the others have no way to fix the severe image retention which is my main reason for sticking with it. If it doesn't bother you or affect your unit then I can highly recommend AEX which seems to be the ROM 90% of the devs are on.

What do you mean by the image retention issue? And what have you calibrated? As far as I understand, you have just tweaked the RGB values of the screen. Can you tell me your values? I think the same thing can be done via Kernel Adiutor if you are on a kernel that supports KCAL. AFAIK, stock LOS kernel doesn't have it but most ROMs and all custom kernels have it.
What about AOSP by JDC team, it appears very stable with EAS?

Does this problem have anything in common to the top edge of phone bleeding? Isnt that hardware's fault?

Yes, it's the same problem - I am unaware whether this is a software or hardware problem, but you can correct it 100% with software. It looks like lightbleed right around the border of the phone and you can see ghosting of previus apps around the corners (especially on a grey background). It's easy to fix in LineageOS, but I've had trouble in every other ROM I tried so far.

It looks light an orange tinted lightbleed right around the borders of the display and some ghosting of previous apps are overlayed on the current app (especially visible on grey backgrounds). Check the attached image to see what mean, and this is only about 50% of how bad it can get if you don't adjust for it.
Yes I just tweaked the RGB values to 90% (anything more and you can still notice the effect).
I tried using Kernel Adiutor to fix this problem to no avail, using different ROM and kernel combinations. I never checked if the kernel supports KCAL specifically though.
It's been too long since I used JDC's ROM, but if I remember correctly it was stable and fast but lacked essential features at the time (music playback controls, lockscreen torch, display calibration settings). Their Oreo ROM is far ahead of Lineage 15 in in terms of stability though, not that it's DD ready.

Woah thanks for sharing this man, I didn't know about this, can you please share the screenshot of the settings you have made?
I have the same issue and I can't decide which ROM to flash. MIUI 8 is too laggy, MIUI 9 is faster but all apps crash randomly. I will unlock my phone tomorrow (after the stupid 72 hours waiting period) and I am hoping that this discussion will help us decide. Most probably it will be a choice between Xiaomi.eu or LOS.

As someone who recently used both Xiaomi.eu and LOS14.1 I might be able to clear that up.
Xiaomi.eu MIUI9 build is almost identical to MIUI 8. There are a few minor tweaks to the UI such as the task switcher which is now more immersive and the new icon pack. Settings are now more bundled together and ROM/System info is graphically displayed. Split screen multitasking seems to be the only new feature. I haven't experienced a single app crash, but the system animation speed was set way to fast by default and transition animations show tearing each time you switch apps. In short, it's fast but not smooth.
I switched back to LOS quite quickly. The only feature MIUI has that LOS doesn't is Dual Apps, and since I don't use that the choice was very simple. LOS is much smoother and faster, with minimal features on top of AOSP. I enjoy the additions, it doesn't feel bloated or barebones.
If you are going to use LOS, I recommend doing the following:
-If you have a 32GB Mi5, flash the LOS stock freq kernel
-Set the display calibration as per my previous posts
-Activate touch home button, always on fingerprint unlock
-Install Magisk
-Flash MIUI camera Magisk module + OISprop-Magisk
-Flash iYTBP Magisk module
-Flash unified hosts Adblock Magisk module (make sure to select systemless hosts in Magisk settings)
-Install Google camera HDR+
-Use Nova (paid) or Lawnchair (free) as the launcher
That should get you going and solve most if not all annoyances coming from MIUI. You'd be amazed with the quality of Google Camera HDR+! Just check the attached samples (they are all compressed due to Xda but you'll get the point).

Wow! that was very informative. Thanks a lot man :good: . And yes, I get the point about the photo samples are amazing.
I have the 32 GB version and I already purchased Nova Launcher and use no matter what. I will have to find the addons you mentioned as I have no idea what they do. It's the first time I install a custom ROM on my MI 5. One final question, do you have any thoughts on AOSP Extended?
@xdadevet
Hi, where is OISprop module ?

I can add all the files you need to a dropbox folder and share the link if that would be easier? I find that the Mi5 is super easy to modify, you shouldn't worry too much. I'll add the firmware you need and GAPPS if that would help you transition.
Yes, AEX is a great ROM with many features. Most Devs seem to be on it (going by their discussions). I haven't found a way to fix my LCD issues on AEX yet, which is the main reason for not using it currently.

You need to run the apk after you flashed the magisk module and rebooted your phone to calibrate the OIS.
I'm not responsible for any damage to your device. So be advised.
Kernel Features:
-CPU Overclocked (BIG cores to 2.01GHz (experimental, i should reduce and / or disable it if too many users notify instability in F5122 (that is my personal device));
-AdrenoBoost;
-Slimbus (Audio bridge) Overclocking;
-WCD9335 HiFi selector and tunnings louder audio at kernel side;
-WSA8810 tunnings for better and louder audio in speaker;
-CRC disabled;
-DTS Eagle sound integration;
-300 Hz instead 1 kHz for kernel timer (saves power);
-Boeffla Wakelock blocker;
-Quick charge tweaks (2100mA constant charging for QC 2.0 / 3.0 enabled chargers, drawing about 1,6 Amps from wall PSU);
-Tunned voltage regulators for CPU and GPU enabling High Power Mode;
-Kernel general optimizations;
-WIP: add klapse and kcal;
-Enable 160 MHz clock in crypto engine for faster crypto operations.
Special thanks to:
@stefanhh0 github user (idk what is the nick here, please, pm me and i add it if you want) for keeping a source with newer mainline (i guess) patches;
@franciscofranco for many commits that help us improving performance and saving power;
Sony AOSP team;
And others that maybe i forgot to tag here but all them are in the github code below:
https://github.com/LuizPauloDamaceno/kernel
Inside the zip that you can download below, you will find the initial release. You should flash it by fastboot and them reinstall magisk if you have it. Also, have two xml files that is a complementing of the audio tweaks in android side, enabling CLSH_LOHIFI mode in the audio processor and tunning volumes. From mic to headphones and speakers. The thermanager is the one that you should install it for improved thermal handle with this kernel. Dont worry, things shouldn't fry, but is not my fault if them fry. As another complemention, i've done a "userdata" partition for users who have 64 GB variants, like me. The AOSP is compilled for 32 GB i guess and we have only half of our full capacity. Flashing userdata (obviously, will erase your data partition and you will loose everything like is done in the first AOSP flashes if you dont do a back-up...) you will also have more free space
Kernel: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Userdata: fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
To copy the below files i like to use root explorer app, you can also do by adb. I'm open for suggestion of better apps too
mixer_paths.xml: copy it to /system/vendor/etc/mixer_paths.xml and change permissions to 0644 octal or rw-r-r.
thermanager.xml: copy it to /system/vendor/etc/thermanager.xml and change permissions to 0644 octal or rw-r-r.
The first versions i will not do the automated flashing because are the initial and testing releases, but if my plans goes ok for the next 15 days or in the worst case next month, i can do a twrp flasheable style to make our lives easier. For me, no random reboots, no overheating for normal use and battery stills ok. Report it your experience, i will appreciate to know! =D

It's awesome that you still keep these kernels up to date. Really appreciate the work.
I've been switching between v14 and v33 of your extreme kernels today for GPU testing. Didn't expect to see a kernel for Pie. I hope you'll update the one for Oreo as well, it's always great to see new changes. Thanks again!
Could this one be used with LineageOS 16 Custom Rom by chippa?

I dont know, i dont have sure if could be used because maybe the drivers are different. If the LiOs uses 3.10 kernel then dont, you cant, because the drivers of 4.9 kernel is quite different.

LineageOS 16 by chippa uses 3.10 so no, I'll not boot.

Thank you for the test! I will stay in AOSP Pie for a while since i've built mine one following the sony's tutorial for now. Wainting for the results
So, who tested it the first release? Any observations? soon i will post the second release with some improvements.
I tested the first release on AOSP pie. The battery life is quite good but i needed to set big cores frequency back to 1.8, because the phone heats up a little bit. I also noticed a bug but i don't know if it's due to the rom or to the kernel: sometimes (not too frequently) the system ui force closes without any message. The screen becomes black and after a few seconds it turns on with lockscreen.
Anyway, as wel as in other roms, Whatsapp voice notes are very quiet; can this be solved with mixer path?
Thank you for your effort

When you say voice notes are not very quiet you say about noise or too loud?
About the frequency, yes, the higher frequencies is intended to who wants to play certain games with higher performance or just perform better other applications, but everything has the "dark side". In some AOSP roms (i think all) you have random reboots because the 1.95 GHz is enabled without any overvoltage, so, the clock cannot be sustained by the system and the CPU crashes. I recommend if you want to use these clocks to have a fan in a joystick for example... And if you use is only the daily, use the stock frequencies. =D
About the lockscreen and sysui stop answering, i've also observed this without kernel modifications. So i think can be something from ROM or kernel that isn't related to hardware changes. Can be investigated. For 3 days now that this problem not showing here...

Thanks for the answer. Btw, i meant that voice notes are quiet, so their volume is too low to be heard
Can anyone do a benchmark using antutu and stock 4.9 kernel (not this one) just to compare it? Following screen from next version that I should post soon. With 4.9.224 Linux and many more features.

I took this one a year ago with Omni and 4.9 kernel, I recall performance was terrible on all 4.9 ROMs back then.
On your run I noticed that CPU scores is still lower than stock 8.0 with 3.10 kernel (that one got 46k on CPU and 17k on GPU), but I think it's better than anything we have currently.
By the way @ParanoidNemo how was the kernel running on AOSP 10?

Interesting, thank you for feedback. Yes... CPU score in 4.9 kernels is lower than 3.10. I think is something related to KPTI mitigations or something else... Concerning you're using OMINI rom... Is the wifi thetering working well? I have troubles with AOSP related with that and i thinks is not related to kernel. Thank you.

I did this run a year ago, haven't tested that yet. I've since switched to Lineage GSI (with Sjll's modified 4.9 kernel), and tethering/hotspot works fine.
Just flashed on latest AOSP pie by vknecht and it's work like a charm. No major bugs by far, rom is stable and fast, phone doesn't get really hot even without underclock. Im staying on it because ViPER4Android working with this setup unlike on LOS 16.

Well, random reebots still occur unfortunately, but most on demanding tasks. I'm not an expert, but I don't think this is a kernel issue.
