As promised earlier that I would share my work and yes I stand by that promise. The modified CPU editor script.
CREDITSsmokin1337 The original creator of the scriptupnndwn4par For his support
todobarato For suggesting optimization which was really useful
ONLY FOR ATRIX 4G Running ICSROM or ATRICS
The usual warnings. Do not blame me for bricked phones. This is still under testing phase and I need testers.
Please donot PM me with the results, Post them here in this forum
New Version
Added an optimization suggested by todobarato (thanks!!) Works fine. The only problem still is the sticky bit issue. Still Working on it
Download the New Version Here.
Instructions
1. Flash in CWM
2. Reboot
3. The script should start working on its own (Doesn't Work for now)
Open terminal > "auto-cpu" (Without quotes)
And also please let me know if the CPU frequencies are reverting at boot or not?
Changes Made
1. The original script by smokin1337 is kept intact , so advanced users can still use the script as usual.
2. The modifications automatically shutdown one of the cores when its not required.
So please go ahead test it and let me know results.
Anyone is welcome to help and provide suggestion or even modify this and contribute.

Yes I got those same results from others. Can you try using SManager and select the script /system/xbin/auto-cpu and let me know of the results.
Thanks!

It allows CPU mods without using an app (which of course uses battery).
You can change min/max frequencies on each core individually. You can even take one of the cores offline completely. Running on one core is not noticeably different from two for routine use. I hardly see a difference. I can't give any hard number for the increase in battery life since I have only been using it for less than two days. But battery life is definitely better.
There is some more info here:

*********************************
deathscream,
I just tried it. The script is not running automatically as far as I can tell. I am not seeing the second core shutting down.
Thanks, and keep up the good work.
I'll look into it. I just got my phone back. Now I can test it without any problems.

Hello,
I am following this and I think you are complicating it to much.
I have test this script and the original and it never disable the 2nd core.
If you will disable it is very easy with the following command as su: echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
The only issue is that it comes online very fast again and you have to execute the command again... I have found the script that disable the 2nd core but only when the screen off, this isn't our problem, by CPU-spy it show deep-sleep is working.
I have changed the script to disable the 2nd core when the CPU frequency is under 350Mhz, this check every X second (I use 35seconds, this can be changed) , now the second core is offline when it detects low CPU frequency and stay offline, if you need it again I have observed after switch off and on again the screen it comes back online or by open set-CPU(I have it on widget to check CPU temp) if you have. If you use one very CPU intensive app comes only by itself too.
I put the script on /system/etc change the correct permission, run with SDmanager.
The script is:
--------------------------------------------------------
#!/system/bin/sh
#
#
while [ 1 ]
do
CPU0=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq`;
if [ $CPU0 -lt "350000" ]; then && echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online;
fi;
sleep 35
done
-------------------------------------------------------------
I hope this help, I am using it on CM7 and work better that I have expected.

Yes. I tried it . The script doesn't run automatically. The sticky bit setting is driving me nuts. haven't slept the whole night. adding this to userinit also doesn't work , so I guess the only way would be try upacking the booimage, ramdisk and adding to the init.rc . I'll try running that there. That should probably work. But can't say for sure.
relax dude... even with the 2nd core disabled, the battery life had increased just a little almost insignificant hours. im pretty sure that we will have this serious issue solved only if someone can put hands on another ics kernel or this leaked kernel source.

I'm testing the new version on AOKP (not suggested, I know ) and it seems that doesn't switch well the cores status.....I'm able to set a maximum cpu1 settings but not it doesn't really applies it.
Within my tests I can see that the 2nd core is not so much important....I can play Riptide GP and Shine Runner (heavy games??? ) plus others apps with only 1 core without any noticeable lags...so
I'd like to ask you if you can make a unique profile and cut off other settings:
cpu0 @ 1ghz max, variable
cpu1 @ 456mhz max, variable (enabled only if cpu0 is @ 1ghz more than 5/10 seconds)
screen-off: cpu0 456mhz max, cpu1 disabled.
Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I'll definitely try adding those.

If disabling a core is not fetching significant battery increase in leaked rom(s) then efforts to streamline sampling would we worthless as primary issue of battery drain would not get solved.
This came as a surprise as the second core was suspected to be the mAh drainer. Maybe it could be the GPU that runs at max..
After a long amount of observation, I found out that shutting down a core isn't reducing the battery drain. There is something more to it. Thanks to upndwn4par to release icsrom 1.4.5 so that I could test my scripts... I'm still working on the battery drain issue and will let you guys know the progress soon.

After getting a little annoyed at the runty, poorly mapped-out, scratchy thicket of real and imagined performance tweaks, I decided to embark on a semi-long term project to determine what's real and what's "zomg mega-booster performance pills".
First project was to evaluate existing performance options on stock CM10 for actual gains using experimental design. (tl;dr: for those geeky enough to want to know, it was a main effects only d-optimal design with 32 design points for the 16 parameters listed, including several lack-of-fit and pure-error replicates. I could go on, but do you really want me to?). I ended up with a list of 16 parameters all together, from the Developer Options and Performance settings, based on their showing up in various performance tweaks discussions.
The main challenge was finding a way to measure actual performance instead of perception. I settled on several benchmarking tools: Antutu, Quadrant, SQL Benchmark, and Chainfire's benchmarking app. One of the parameters being tested ("don't keep activities") actually breaks Antutu at the graphics testing step, so I'm not reporting anything from Antutu.
All told, out of the 16 parameters tested, only 9 showed any kind of effect whatsoever, and combining best settings for all 9 simultaneously, total performance only boosted by ~20%, of which fully half was due to switching max speed from 1000 to 1100. this means the other 8 settings combined for a total boost of ~10%, meaning individually they're peanuts. The remaining 7 settings that showed no effect are only so much fluff and unlikely to do a thing for you performance-wise.
Results are summarized below for your reading/teeth-gnashing pleasure:
Max Speed (1000 versus 1100): Very clear, notable difference between the two settings on all benchmarks. This is the expected result, about 10% improvement in all benchmarks on average. Recommendation: set max speed at 1100.
Governor (convservative vs interactive vs ondemand): This only had any impact on Quadrant benchmark, no other benchmarks appeared to care. In Quadrant, conservative was the worst overall, while interactive provided an ~ 5% boost and ondemand gave ~6% boost. Recommendation: use ondemand.
Scheduler (BFQ, CFQ, noop, deadline): I don't know what schedulers do or the differences between these settings, but the only place they had any effect at all was in the SQL benchmark. There were clear differences here though: BFQ was by far the worst. CFQ and deadline were about the same with a 17% increase in SQL activity performance. noop was the best with ~ 20% increase in SQL activity performance. Recommendation: use noop. [update: some have reported stability issues with noop. If thus us the case for you, CFQ would be the next best choice]
Zram (disabled, 18% default, 26%): Zram effects only showed up in Chainfire's benchmark app, specifically for Java activities. Default 18% setting performed worst but disabled setting wasn't significantly different. 26% setting gave a 4% boost, but again, only for the java-specific benchmark. Recommmendation: use 26% setting.
16-bit transparency (off or on): Turning on the 16-bit transparency setting gave a smallish 3% boost to Chainfire's java benchmark. It did not have a measureable effect anywhere else, and I did not visually see any differences anywhere during testing. Recommendation: turn on 16-bit transparency.
Kernel same-page merge (off or on): This had a *negative* effect when turned on, resulting in a 1% performance hit on Chainfire's native benchmark. It did not have any measurable effect anywhere else. Recommendation: Keep off.
Don't keep activities (off or on): This was very problematic: it provided a distinct improvement in quadrant score (+8%) when turned on, but behaved poorly with other apps (Antutu being one). Since it didn't seem to help anywhere else outside of Quadrant and didnt' play well with others, recommendation is to keep off:
The following list are the settings that had no measureable impact anywhere. Any attempt to claim they have "zomg" status should be summarily whipped with placebo pills, or else they should let me know the exact details in which they supposedly work and I can test.
Placebo hall of shame:
Surface improvement (since it had no effect anywhere, why not just set it on banding/blur and have the best pictures?)
Background process limit
Disable HW overlays
Force GPU setting
Any of the animation scale settings (although they look snappier at lower settings, so it at least *feels* faster)
minimum speed (seriously? people think this has an effect? keep at 300 for best battery life)
Allow purging of assets
Hope you like this, y'all! Let me know if there's any other mad-scientist experiments you'd like to see.
Nicely done. How many times did you run each test? Or perhaps the results were very consistent.
FYI; regarding the governor, scheduler and the like, you may want to have a look at this thread;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369817
I think gives your tests / results some perspective as well.

Thanks for the link. Very informative.
How familiar are you with factorial designs? All parameters were tested simultaneously in such a way that their individual effects can be partitioned out mathematically. That's what allows me to test all those settings with just 32 runs and still get solid estimates of their effects, and more importantly, the amount of variation around them (a requirement for distinguishing real effects from noise).
I suggest googling "factorial design of experiments" if you're interested.

Re: [CM10] NC Performance (and) Placebos
Good suggestions. Before trying these third party tweaks would be good to know a few things from actual users:
Has anyone tried any combinations of these tweaks simultaneously? If yes, did they all play well together? If no, details please!
Some of these appear to have device specific settings, can anyone share settings being used on the NC?
I intend to sandbox these, as i have little desire to use then in real life just yet. Can anyone confirm that if i restore my current setup, the restore process will clean out whatever settings these tweaks out in place?
Speaking for all scientists, thank you kindly!

Have only used V6, from my experiences, restoring a Nandroid or flashing a new nightly will clean out everything it changes other than the files you store on the SDcard. This post details how I set it up http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34991382&postcount=1234
I never really noticed a huge performance boost from V6, it did reduce the lag that was in the Beta's and early nightlies, mostly seemed to keep memory available and avoid the lag issued in the early builds. Have not used for the last few weeks since performance has improved on the newer builds.

Thank you for your measured and logical approach and recommendations! It is appreciated. I have experimented a little with the third party tweaks and haven't found any that fascinating, honestly.
When I install CM10.1, I also flash a script I made to customize to my preference and delete stuff I don't use like language modules, ringtones, quicksearch, boot animation, etc to free up some RAM. Between that and killing memory hungry apps when I'm done, my old Nook is still holding on reasonably well.

I'm surprised that zram enabled IMPROVED things. So between disabled, 18%, and 26% (no idea what default really is without digging in the code), 26% was the best option?
Interesting. I thought zram would improve multitasking (maintaining background activities) at the expense of potential slowdowns (compressed swap to ramdisk).

It might have that effect, but wasn't apparent in the benchmarks i used. It could be that a different benchmark is needed to detect it, or it could be the negative effects are too small to be measurable compared to the normal "noise" of operation.
Any ideas how we could measure this more explicitly, if there is any interest?

Good question, I'd think it'd require some way to switch activities around and somehow measure their switch rates, but the environment would be quite difficult to keep consistent.
BTW thanks for the scientific work on this stuff, MUCH better than "OMG THIS TURNED MY TABLET INTO A UNICORN" posts we see a lot on tech forums.

Since it would help most when memory is low (like it ever isn't), running two memory hogs simultaneously should show an effect if there is one. A custom memory-hog app built under two different names, perhaps?
I have a shell script that creates a swapfile and enables its use that would also be well tested this way, since zram creates an in-memory swapfile. I was never able to see any tangible results except for the output of "free", so I don't use it anymore, and haven't tried it under CM10.1.

Good to see you around here!
Thought I would add more to this and make it useful for a few users.
The reason behind why Mpdecision is disabled by default is due to the fact that it is highly inefficient in the sense that hotplugging on Linux, put simply, sucks. Why? The hotplug acts as a front-end to the scheduler to provide a means of plugging and unplugging cores in exchange for a high amount of latency. This means that even though a core may be plugged, there is a delay of several milliseconds before this is actually processed causing microstutters that are hard to notice, but do disrupt performance. The same can be said for the thermal driver and how it Aries frequencies.
Now that that is over with, I'd just like to thank Franco. My device has never been faster. Even with an undercooked, it is still performing better than ever. Especially love the ZRAM tweaks, and how you properly configured CPU boost. Some people make it way too aggressive... It's the little things, and the huge steps forward in the source code that make your work so great! Best of luck
My apps have been updated to support the One Plus X too, both free and paid apps.
Damn legendery dev with his awesome kernel is here. Thank you!
Wish you're kernel for CM13/14 [emoji1]
Flash it, all fine, better later than never,
Didn't work for me coming from LOS (17/03/02 build) with Boeffla kernel. Wiped cache and dalvik, flashed fk r1 and bootloop. Phone kept returning to the boot splash screen and then straight to recovery. Looking forward to solving. Thanks for now.
Sorry, I was clearly not fully awake when I posted this. I read OxygenOS and interpreted as LineageOS.
Still, I hope someday we can run FK kernel on LOS.
Thanks anyways.
Omg .....Dream come true....Thank you franco
Thanks for the kernel, Franco!
It's a shame that it only supports OOS.
FYI I installed it on Sultan's CM13 and everything works fine except dt2w. The switch in settings does nothing and there is no switch in Kernel Adiutor. I hope that your kernel will be compatible with CM/AOSP based roms in the future.
Edit: Wifi is also not working.

FYI I installed it on Sultan's CM13 and everything works fine except dt2w. The switch in settings does nothing and there is no switch in Kernel Adiutor. I hope that your kernel will be compatible with CM/AOSP based roms in the future.
Edit: Wifi is also not working.

It won't work on Sultan's, he uses a very specific Kernel with specific changes that only work on his specific rom build.

There's no heating issue. The device throttles just fine when under stress. I run several CPU stability tests before I push a new Kernel...

It's not slow with FK, at all. I made sure of that. There was a specially bad issue that I reported to OP 1 year ago, which makes the device have a gigantic stack of uninterruptible threads after a while on screen off. My record was a load average close to 200, 200, 200 which is insane and destroyed the device's performance. That's fixed on FK. Also all cores are online at all times, there's no need to shut down 2 cores, and mpdecision is disabled so that it doesn't mess with the devices performance.
thanks finally the great franco kernel is here damn really appreciate your work
Something really worth for the OnePlus X after a long time. I have been waiting for this day. Thank you.

yeah really i underclocked the cpu to 1957 ghz and input boost enabled to 652mhz, the phone literally flies on oxygen os. Also the antutu score is 55222,literally made my day thanks a lot
One wierd thing though, kernel auditor shows my battery capacity to 3000mah, is it true?? or is it after the kernel, anyways its buttery smooth.. magical

Hi, I flashed your kernal yesterday, all great and the device is buttery smooth but just one thing I noted. When ever the phone goes into to deep sleep the device doesn't wake up on pressing the power button. Have to restart the phone by long pressing the power button. And I haven't changed anything using the kernal adiutor app, just using your default settings.
Can you kindly guide me if something is wrong from my side. May be if you want a log I'll try to pull out a log tonight.
Thanks alot for your work.
Hi everyone, this is a guide based on my personal tests, which I have the pleasure to share with the whole community, for experienced users and not. Regardless of whether you prefer to use a MIUI stock or a custom ROMs, these are a series of tricks, Tweaks, passages, let's call them what we want, to get the maximum in terms of battery life, without sacrificing performance. First of all, we talk mainly to have the better experience for MIUI and PRINCIPALLY for ROOTED users, and custom ROMs too. No rooted users cannot expect miracles because there are modifications that mainly affect the entire operating system. I also hoped to find the Holy Grail, but unfortunately it still hasn't happened.
Anyway,: If you want to use a MIUI (preferably GLOBAL, I will explain later why this is the case); the first thing I recommend in addition to a backup (just in case), it's a pretty safe Debloat using the complete Saki tool:
https://saki-eu.github.io/XiaomiADBFastbootTools/
After giving our device a nice cleanup from Bloatware (obviously you choose which ones to remove or not, personally I removed almost all of them leaving only Gallery, Phone and Messages without any problem), the best part comes, and that is to apply all the settings for a better user experience in every aspect. The MIUI is obviously not optimized as a custom ROM, so we should do it ourselves. Personally I am a root user, so first of all I flashed Evira Kernel and Magisk (with which I am wonderfully) and put modules that I personally recommend: LKT (or others similar modules), Syconfig Patcher (they are the ones that interest us), but of course the appearance rooting is optional.
But back to optimization; for each application that we will install, we will have to configure its type of activity in the background based on how much you want the app to act in the background. For example, the "MIUI Calculator" app, which I almost never use, will have set "limit app functions", otherwise applications that we will use more often will suffice "MIUI optimization", such as "Youtube", and what more important, for apps for which notification is essential (such as Whatsapp or Gmail), remove the limitations.
But it's not over. Write in the settings menu "change system settings", then a list will open with all the apps we have installed. Clicking on one of them, a menu will open, where clicking on "battery and performance", we will choose whether to put the limitations in the background or not, same speech as before, limit everything that is not necessary, inverse speech obviously goes for app important to us (gmail whats etc), which we will leave free to act in the background.
Still in the "battery and performance" menu, click on "battery optimization" and optimize everything you can, except as usual, the apps you don't want to be limited as in the previous two steps.
Now we can activate the "Battery saving" mode, which will obviously work on the whole system, except for all the apps that we have NOT optimized before. They will absolutely not be touched. (A nice break of *** optimize the MIUI , Doh!)
Remember that at the beginning of the guide I told you "better to focus on the global rather than the ROM developer?" well, using a third-party tool like Kernel auditor (personally I use EX Kernel Manager with which I am wonderfully), in the dashboard the developer rom had higher CPU peaks than the Global.Il that involved higher consumption. And it is a tool like this "Ex Kernel Manager etc" that we will now configure.
Step 1 Configure the Governor.
The mode and the speed with which the processor passes from the maximum frequency to the minimum one is regulated by the so-called * "Governor"
There are more than 100 different types of Governor for kernel, more or less different; but not all Governors are present in the Kernels. In case you are using Evira Kernel, my advice is to set the CPU to the "Alucardsched" Governor which offers an excellent compromise between performance and battery life.
EDIT: Recently tested zzmove gov with Evira Kernel: little performance is lost compared to alucardsched, but the battery benefits. Personally i have chosen profile 3 (ybatex).
Step 2 I / O scheduler
It is precisely a program in the form of an algorithm which, given a set of requests for access to a resource, establishes a temporal order for the execution of such requests, privileging those that respect certain parameters, so as to optimize the access to this resource and thus allow the completion of the desired service / instruction or process. In this case, I recommend setting it to noop or Zen, for an approach closer to the battery.
In the GPU section, if you don't use particularly heavy games, (personally I play every now and then in clash royale and I don't have any kind of lag at all) you can also set up your own governor here, setting one like Powersave, but in any case this is completely subjective .
Once everything is set up, all that remains is to talk about the last aspect,
the Doze.
Originally introduced with Android Marshmallow, it allows applications and various activities in the background to "sleep" when the device is screen off. Of course over time it has been increasingly perfect, which is why: In a Stock MIUI you can afford to download Naptime, Servicely or Greenify if you want (personally I use Nap & Serv) to enhance Doze or hibernation as in the case of Greenify (excluding as always the apps we want to be in the whitelist).
IMPORTANT: different words must be made for Custom ROMs, which being already optimized, and having a definitely more effective Doze than the basic stock, DO NOT NEED third-party apps like Naptime or Greenify. In this case, even setting everything as the guide, notifications will not arrive when the screen is off, except when you unlock the device.
so as far as custom ROMs are concerned, you just need to limit the apps as in the guide, leave in the background those you don't want to be touched, and always remove the optimization for these "important" apps, I always repeat "whatsapp gmail etc". In this way you will be able to activate energy saving quietly, the apps you prefer will not be touched, and you already have a Doze optimized like the rest of the system. The only thing that applies to Custom ROMs, is always to set the Governors as described above.
That's all at last :fingers-crossed:.
Attached here are my screenshots, with 8 hours of SOT, DIVIDED IN THREE DAYS, so sometimes the phone was idle as during the night or at work. With these configurations, in a single day, or in a day and a half, you will easily arrive even at 10 hours of SOT and maybe even beyond. I hope you fell asleep while reading, but I wanted to make a guide (even if long), to explain to those who may not be very practical, some things that can always be useful. A simple "thanks" is always welcome!
Greetings .:good:
Two more things: for more battery saving, u can disable automatic sync in settings menu (so sync when u want), and probably after some rebooting, it is possible that the governors will reset itself to the default one. So I suggest you check it out.
Really thanks for your concern about battery life stuff, and yup indeed on custom ROMs sometimes we can get up to 10hrs SoT without any mod or even a custom kernel (my experience)!
I'm looking forward to see how long the battery will last when we get Android Q update from MI..

Thank you very much! If I am not mistaken, beyond the various new functions, the "Extreme battery savings" will return. With an adequate optimization, as above (also to be as clear as possible with any type of user), we hope to see many beautiful new performances :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Thanks for the guide, with it you cleared some doubts that I had, I just have a question, for battery/performace Anxiety can be better than Zen? For what I read the past days is an optimized version of Maple wich gives good balance between battery and performance.

Thanks bro; Zen and Anxiety are so similar as they are also different. Each I/O scheduler we choose can be the most indicated according to what we do with our device. Let me clarify: Anxiety is better in term of battery saving comparing with Maple, "It prioritizes reads over writes but tends to starve writes more".
Zen is based on noop and deadline, very stable and have a great balance, for this reason i choose it. But as mentioned there are no schedulers better than others. But better according to our needs. My advice is to try them both, and see how you are in your daily use of the device :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Battery life is not the only thing I look for. Stock rom batter life is good enough after debloat in many crapps using saki. Stability, functionalities, security.. overall stock rom is the way to go for me at the moment. Did you mention restricting permission on apps?
Welp, after playing Free Fire for 1:20:00 and PUBG for 4:00:00, a little Browsing, my battery usage was of 76%, I don't use LKT because last time I try it my wifi started working weird, only use Snaptime. Evira 2.2.
:good:
I would like to know what do you think about zzmove governor that was added in Evira 2.3. Thanks.
I tried to use your settings but at reboot all configuration change to interactive or schedutil for CPU, msm-adreno-tz for GPU e anxiety for Scheduler I/O. I guess there are some conflicts with LTK.... I don't kwow how you have 8 hours of screen on your device...

Mate, if u read with more attention, i wrote about it in my second post..
Just reconfig Governor already. It could be happen, is normal
Im going to test darknesssched with zen without sysconfig patcher (Had mobile data connection issues), alucardsched give me a little lag in PUBG, when I use darknesssched that dont happen, zzmoove dont convince me, it is based in conservative and hasnt been updated since 2015, for what I know cpu governors schedutil based are more "smart".

Yep
Hm, i am locked...and have no kernels installed. And I'm not planing to do it.
Did restrictions and debloat and this is what I get.
Since I am on 10.3.5. my battery is weaker..
On 10.2.7 I had 2 sims with lousy signal, and I was having about 7,8 h of sot and same use.
Now before this tweaks I was hardly getting 5h in 24h
Yesterday I had weaker use then ussual but still, this isn't very good..but I think it is better.
I dont like this 10.3.5.

Updated 7/31/2021 rebased on Acuicultor's v2.2.5 rebase (OOS) and rebase_custom (custom ROMs).
[NOTE: Bug reported - with a Magisk Module I created to fix it. For some strange reason (code looks fine), some systems are setting the default GPU frequency to 920mhz and default power level to 0 (max). I have posted a small Magisk Module that waits 5 seconds then corrects these values (295mhz default and power level 8). It's on the GitHub release page - MOD-GPU-Set-Min-Freq.zip. Just install with Magisk Manager as a module / install from storage after downloading.]
This is a tweaked version of RadioActive kernel by acuicultor modded for higher performance and lower idle drain. All source commits and releases are on my GitHub fork:
https://github.com/mrslezak/Radioactive_kernel_oneplus8/releases/tag/v2.2.5-MOD
PLEASE read the Readme as well as the disclaimer. Whenever you flash a custom kernel, you do so at your own risk. I recently rebased on the dev's work (GPU_OC OOS branch, never released) and set the wakelock blocks up myself (lower idle drain, tested over a week with no loss in functionality), dropped the base GPU frequency to 295mhz and raised the top ones (800/920mhz) acuicultor you're an awesome dev, great to have you around! All credits should go to him other than my tweaks.
I also merged all the same changes into the Custom ROM branch which didn't have GPUOC or AdrenoBoost - several people are using it now but it's marked as a BETA since I am on OOS (latest Global) and can't test it myself. NOTE: many people on the TG channel I posted to have tried it and have had no issues on Op8, Op8 Pro, and Op8T.
Note if you are one of the rare people who see artifacts in games or benches, the easiest fix is to go into your kernel manager and set the max GPU frequency to 800mhz and apply on boot. Not all 865 Adreno GPUs are created equal. I haven't seen one that couldn't handle 900mhz to date, but enough people have had no issues at 920mhz so that's where I put it.
Be sure to flash Magisk before installing, then use EX Kernel Manager or FK Kernel Manager to Flash the kernel zip. It has all the same optimizations of RadioActive kernel, just modded for really nice performance and low battery drain. Adreno Boost is set to low on default which makes it react faster as the GPU scales. If you already have Magisk installed, there is no reason to reinstall it - the AnyKernel 3 zip installer will use what's installed already.
I put one out there you can just flash from: fastboot flash boot 4.19.110.RadioActive-WL-295_UC-920-GPU-2.2.5.img (OOS only) as it saved my a$$ a couple times when flashing or trying to apply an incremental update when rooted (no success, although I posted the incremental update on TG, the payload just won't extract properly to update using fastbootd scripts)... Maybe I'll post it here on XDA and see if anyone can extract the latest Op8T update.
Also someone sent me a PM about using KonaBess app to change frequencies even more, or change regulators, or change the DDR clock speeds. Yes, it works. Note you probably should only play with that if you have a fastboot image available in case it doesn't boot! I did just upload one for OOS to the repo as I mentioned above. Be warned, you're on your own there.
Hope you all enjoy!

I built both just moved some commits over from the GPU_OC branch and added my own to custom. I have no way to test it but several others did already. All I've heard is great feedback and running faster than OOS. Of course it depends on the ROM.

I just built the OOS one... custom I don't think there's a GPU_OC branch to rebase on. I deleted my other repo with changes and just switched to the dev's work since it was nicely done. I'm always running OOS I don't really care to run a custom ROM. Although I imagine it would be pretty easy to add his commits from the OC branch to the custom one, you never know what issues you'll encounter when doing so... And I don't really feel like building a kernel I won't use. I already converted it over from a carrier locked phone. Happy enough it runs on Global OOS ROM. I've run a few custom ROMs before like Lineage, Evolution-X, I always end up back on OOS. Just like having a fast phone with no lag where I can open any number of apps and get work done quickly without waiting for anything to load.

RadioActive-WL-295-920GPU-custom-2.1.4-BETA.zip is the file for custom ROMs BTW if you don't read the notes (which you should). As I mentioned to the unhappy user you can always drop the max GPU in any kernel manager to 800mhz and set on boot if you got an inferior 865 although artifacts have only been reported by 1 person period. A more productive approach rather than bad mouthing someone trying to provide a free service is "can you build a version that maxes out at 900mhz?"... Respect please in the forums.

Well I put up custom and OOS just use a kernel manager to set the high frequency you want it to stop at on boot. But before you do, here's a day of basically using the phone a lot at 120hz with many apps open. Note someone here didn't look at the SOT DRAIN which is 100/8.27 = 12hrs SOT. I didn't start it with a full battery. I do that on purpose start at 60% or so to see how it drains in the middle of the discharge. So I'd advise those that are quick to criticize, make sure you actually calculate something before saying it's "horrible" when it's as good as stock.

You do realize that this is 12 SOT if you never let it sleep and use it all the time, look at the stats and do some math. 100%/8.27% = 12hrs SOT. Idle went up because I was on phone calls for an hour, and the screen turns off. It's usually 0.6%/hr if you're using it (on WiFi), 1%/hr on cell, turning it on and off every few minutes will cause more drain. I was using my phone a lot today that way. I would say that's amazing to get the same SOT on a modded kernel. I haven't optimized a thing in the ROM or notifications, just used the kernel. I don't care if you use it, do as you wish.
The best way to get help, or to find me is on the TG group. There are people there that can help you out if need be.

Ignore the haters and complainers...
I just flashed (RadioActive-WL-295-920GPU-custom-2.1.4-BETA.zip) over CR_Droid (CR 03/08 and 03/26 builds 8Pro) and it made a HUGE difference in smoothness, snappiness and performance. I don't worry too much about battery drain as we can top off our phones in less than 20 minutes a day. The under-clocking is also wonderful. I remember back in the G2 days we not only underclock, but would under-volt ALL the frequencies just a few ticks away from unstable for more battery life (dependent on the cpu bin ver), but not really that necessary anymore with larger batteries and super quick charges.
Much respect and appreciation and hope to see more tweaks and builds in the future

I just flashed (RadioActive-WL-295-920GPU-custom-2.1.4-BETA.zip) over CR_Droid (CR 03/08 and 03/26 builds 8Pro) and it made a HUGE difference in smoothness, snappiness and performance. I don't worry too much about battery drain as we can top off our phones in less than 20 minutes a day. The under-clocking is also wonderful. I remember back in the G2 days we not only underclock, but would under-volt ALL the frequencies just a few ticks away from unstable for more battery life (dependent on the cpu bin ver), but not really that necessary anymore with larger batteries and super quick charges.
Much respect and appreciation and hope to see more tweaks and builds in the future

Thanks bud, glad to hear good results with the kernel. On TG everyone has been full of compliments. Let's hope it stays that way here as well. We can conduct everything in a respectable manner.
Now if you REALLY want to save battery and your cell provider supports Voice over WiFi, Google Messages enable enhanced chat features and keep it on WiFi only (i.e. Bluetooth only on while you're using it, Location off unless you're navigating somewhere, NFC off unless you're using GPay, mobile data off), here's what I get being on my phone all day today (started under 60% battery) at 120hz: 7% active drain, 0.84% inactive. If you're asleep it's more like 0.4%. You won't miss any calls or texts either.
great, zero! drain during the bedtime that's awsome! thanks for the kernel upgrade
