GPU Control (Will pay donation to creator!) - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Does anyone know if there is any kernel that allows GPU Control for the s8?
Or any developer that can enable gpu control?
Will pay $$$ to whoever can enable gpu control =)

Check out the MTweaks kernel control app. It's free and the best one for the Galaxy S8, offering full control of the hardware.
I recommend the Xceed kernel that offers OC and delivers very good performance. I scored a crazy 281k on AnTuTu 7 with my Galaxy S8 Plus.
I'm using the BatMan ROM with the Xceed kernel and tweaked the performance with Lspeed.

app better for overclock and underclock

hi
I have the galaxy tab 7 and 7 7.
I would like to know which app is better for overclock and underclock ?

he two I like: Voltage Control and CPU Master (From Antutu)
With the right kernel CPU master also allows you to play with your GPU frequency
For I/O scheduler for the Tab 7 you should choose noop (I think the 7.7 will perform best with sio) and for the governor up to you (OnDemand is pretty standard, if your kernel offers you Wheatly it's pretty good)
ok
what about the SetCPU 3.0?
I have overcome 4.1 with tab 7
I used it before and it was less stanle than voltage control. But this is a while ago and I bet they have improved it
Not sure you can play with voltage with SetCPU

Gamer Rom

I Need the Best gaming Lollipop Rom for I9505 with great performance and Battery life ?
That would be AOSP rom by the JDCTeam.
Make sure you set alucard kernel to the extreme performance or performance profile if you want better performance in gaming.

"great performance and Battery life ?" Performence or battery life! 5.1.1 CM with Alucard Kernel
if you get an alucard kernel in your rom then the raising the minimum clock speed to 810 khz on all four cores and the minimum for GPU speed to 200 khz it will help.
*gentle fair sleepers off
*arch power on
*CPU governors to ondemand or alucard with alucard hotplug
in developer option hardware overlays to off.
personally I think ktkernel was better with more options but you'd need to stick to AOSP 5.0 for that or lower
If he were to stick to older android versions (5.0 and lower) then he might aswell get KT kernel, which gives him the posibility of overclocking the CPU and GPU, something that is missing from the other kernels right now.
GPU overclocking isn't really stable, it actually takes away from the gaming experience.
How can increasing the GPU frequency, and therefor the performance, be bad?
If you overclock it too high of course it is unstable. But you should be able to take around 500 MHz easily.

I can't remember the steps you get in kt but I'm pretty sure the uppermost ones were next to unusable, 500 is only just above the standard speed.
the games are always going to have a fixed system requirement levels based on the hardware we have so there isn't that much to gain over optimisations for our roms I feel...
I always judge a rom based on how well it can play shadowgun deadzone. most untweakable kernel rom combos aren't so great fresh out of the box.
Well, I used KT kernel in the 5.0 days. I ran a gaming profile created by ktoonsez himself, which had GPU overclock, and ran stable all the way.
I usually judge a rom by how fast it opens the settings app. This presumes that the app was fully closed, otherwise it will just switch to it, wich is a lot faster than actually opening it. Also, animations are all off.
So, between the pressing of the icon and the actual opening of the app there will be a black screen (if animations are turned off). The longer you see that black screen, the slower the rom is.

hotplugging question

So I installed Kernel Adiutor to tweak the I/O performance and was kinda curious about the governors and all. I noticed that all 4 cores stay on at ALL times. Is this normal behaviour? Why is there no hotplugging? could it be implemented in a custom kernel?
Coming from a Snapdragon 801 which had quad custom cores, it used to have hotplugging to save battery. Thanks for answering if anyone knows

My only guess here is probably the Developer haven't add support for the new'er Snapdragon chip/s?
Been using Kernel Auditor for awhile and I see sd820 reads as single cluster where should 2 (big-LITTLE) . Well just a thought
ok that makes sense, do you know of a kernel tweaker which is updated to work with the new snapdragons by any chance?
I found an app that works, for anybody who is interested, EX Kernel manager works great with the big.LITTLE cores on the s820, happy tweaking!
I'm currently trying out the Interactive governor tweaks posted around the forums

Post Your benchmark score

Hello guys!
Here you may post your benchmark score.
Please mention ROM, kernel, kernel setting, any tweaks(mod), device.
Mine is here-
ROM- RR N 31/01 weekly
Kernel- vegito 5.0
Kernel setting- GPU clock at 550mhz
I/O- bfq
Device- a6020a46
With hyper kernel(unreleased and will not be release soon due to some problem)
GPU clock at 550 mhz
And other is default.
See 3D is quite impressive.
AND ROM is RR N and no other tweaks
Not benchmarked by me
Here are result of extreme kernel
ROM AOKP
30/12 build
3D is good but GPU is over clocked up to 1080mhz.
Guys enable faux fix on vegito kernel it improve 3d a lot. You will feel smoothness.
:good:

Simple GPU algorithm by faux123
Although 3D score not increased but I feel smoothness (I underclocked GPU to stock).

How to Improve Gaming performance on your Moto g4 plus

If any gamers use specific software/apps/tweaks for better gaming experience, please share or any suggestions for rom/kernel. I know our phone is not meant for gaming purpose, but root makes so many things possible. Thanks in advance.
If you flash LineageOS, there is a performance mode which makes gaming seem better than stock but does kill the battery faster though.
Ex kernel with ex kernel manager and you can overclock or control cores.

Can you suggest a source to learn about controlling cores?
