Any detailed info on the Armoury Crate advanced/manual sliders? - ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers

Is there a documentation anywhere?
Via manual sliders, one can boost performance beyond level3, but some of the settings are a mystery to me.

voltage settings

What are the settings for a very conservative profile using voltage control?
Take a look at Shaolin95's excellent Mini Overclocking Guide in the Captivate General area...It's very straightforward.

Best setting for voltage control

Sorry if there's a thread for this one already but I couldn't find it :s
What setting have you guys found produce the performance fit great battery life?
every processor is different and will want different settings, this can also be affected by what kernel and rom and background services you use.
this is why there is an "overclocking guide" used to overclock / and or undervolt your device. to find YOUR best settings.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12910471#post12910471
EDIT...
I suggest doing the guide over and over at each step between 400 and 1000. (or more if overclocking) to find the optimal setting at each step.
if there were a "best setting" it would be applied automatically!

[Android 2.3.3+, ROOT, SGS2/3, N.E.A.K Kernel] NEAK Configurator Pro App V3.3

NEAK Configurator Pro - NEAK kernel control at your fingertips.
By: NRK_2K & Simone201
** Please note: This app is only for the Samsung Galaxy SII & SIII, running on the NEAK GB or ICS Kernels (this can be used with earlier kernels, but not all features will be supported) **
*** ROOT & BUSYBOX Required for operation of this app ***
This thread serves to provide information on what the app does, how to use it, and offer a place for users to suggest new features, report bugs, and general discussion around the app.
The NEAK Configurator Pro app extends the ability of the free app by adding in control of core phone hardware. Currently this app supports controlling CPU frequency (Max/Min), CPU Governor, I/O Scheduler, CPU Voltages (per frequency), GPU Frequency (Max/Min), GPU Voltages (per frequency), CPU hotplug control, and Charge Current Control. This is all on top of what the free app provides.
#### SET ON BOOT issues ####
If Set on Boot is not working. Check and make sure you have the /etc/init.d/ folder in your file system. If it is not there, then create it and the app will work fine. There is something stopping the app from creating this folder.

App Usage:
The app is pretty easy to use. For the check boxes, just check the option you want and click on apply. For the Sliders, slide to the desired setting, and click apply. To set the options on that tab on boot, select "Set on boot" then click apply. To verify that setting will be set on boot, you can either close the app and reopen, and check if "set on boot" is still checked, or check for the corresponding script in the init.d folder.
The sole purpose of this app is to improve the usability of this kernel, and the features it provides. We will listen to all suggestions and implement what we can as this app is about providing the best for the end user, and providing a means for the users to help support our work. Our aim is to bring the best out of our devices and share this with the community.

I've just uploaded it, so may take a few mins to show up.. The play store can be a bit slow Try again in a bit, it should hopefully show up soon!!
awessssssssssome
you are my hero
Good app, no documentation though, but can figure it out easily enough by tinkering. Would have liked to have seen a bit of love in the app since the kernel kicks ass.
But what does screen control do? Is it auto brightness related? Googling can't find anything.
I changed the settings up and down a bit and nothing seemed to happen, even toggled autobrightness off and on. Explanation of the values please?
Min Gamma, Max Gamma min and max brightness values, not a range I recognize or are they 1.xx ??
Then what's Min_BL? Backlight? Amoled doesn't really have a backlight as such.
Sorta tweaking it now and somethings happening, would be nice to know so it's not mucking about with it until I start to get results. Good purchase though, keep it coming

Hi,
Screen control is still very basic (and only really in beta at the moment). Simone and I are working on better controls in that section. The max and min Gamma levels control the "white" level for the screen, so if you lower the max it will make the whites less bright, even at the highest brightness level (it will also darken all the other colours, just not to the same level). The min_bl value lets you specify the minimum "backlight" level (effectively how dark the screen will go at the minimum brightness setting).
Documentation will come eventually for the app, but as I only do this in my spare time I can only get so much done, and at the moment adding as much functionality to the app is the biggest priority (as this is what existing users of the app have requested). This forum page was created for users to ask questions in regards to operation etc of the app, as it is much easier to answer a question here than to add help pages into an app (on top of extra functionality). So feel free to post questions here regarding the app, and either Simone or I will answer your questions. The app will continue to get better as we go along
Hope this helps your situation
Excellent thanks for that. I think taming the screen brightness is going to have quite a big impact on power savings for many.
set brightness for buttons
I user bln to be notified by the touchkey lights if any notification comes in.
Unfortunately the button lights are not very bright. So I really would appreciate an option to set brightness of buttons.
Will it be possible to create an option for this. I read that SiyahKernel has this option, but i like neak more

Simone will update the yaam market with the new app when he is awake, if you are able to access via that marketplace?

What about the charging current. Looking on the screenshots there is 450 or 650mA but the S3 for shure has much more charging current than 650mA. This belongs to the S2 but not the S3.
Do you have any information about the charging currents of the S3 and what would happen, if you use these settings on the S3? Is the charging current reduced when set to 650mA or is this not a mA value but only a bit telling the rom to use low or high current loading?
i cant activate sched_mc etc. is this kernel related?

Yes, charging interface is different for S3. It allows 400mA to 1200mA in 25mA steps. I haven't had time to upload new screen shots or more info about the S3 interfaces. But they are updated to the hardware of the S3.

What version of the kernel are you running? And have you try fixing permissions?

Hey nrk_2k,
Just letting you know that I have upgraded to the newest version of Configurator Pro. No faults with the apps functionality, however the App Icon is only visible as a green and white system file icon. The one with the little green android man on it.
It still works but the old N.E.A.K. icon has now changed.
Cache has been wiped.
Permissions have been set.
Many thanks for the newest update. :good:

System tweaks

I have used android tuner in the past to monitor my system as well as tweak it. I noticed that there are several settings that are not grayed out and I am i if anybody has tried changing any of these settings. There is an option to set the governor at boot as well as adjusting frequencies. There is another setting called enable thermal control. Had anybody adjusted or enabled any of these settings? Also will checking Force gpu rendering in the developer options improve performance?

Is there any info on these thermal profiles anywhere?

Also in Game turbo there's an option of Performance mode so while enabling it does anyone know what it actually does instead of the vague "prevent overheating"? Like does it select pubg performance profile or throttles the prime cluster or similar?
Has anyone found performance/battery difference with that setting on vs off?
Which app is this?
