My xperia m4 works very slow ( UI and apps). I have got 2 gb free space. How to speed up my phone? My Antutu score is 29 000. Sorry for my english.
Model : E2303
Market: Baltic Generic
Release: 26.1.A.3.92 / R9A
Recovery : TWRP RC3
Rom: AOSGP 2
Root : yes, Super Su
Well, you can change your cpu governor with any cpu control app, you can also try greenify for hibernating your apps, sd maid pro for cleaning up the cache and other stuff.

As you have root, advise use Adiutor kernel to increase cell performance by setting the governor of GPU and CPU and frequency, even with a custom rom you are subject to the performance of blocking sony trying to avoid overheating (which honestly It serves no purpose with or without blocking heats mt), as the rom AOSGP was based on the stock rom xperia m4 aqua.
How to set up Kernel Adiutor for no lags ?
My device too gets 29'000 points on Antutu bench, and sometimes is laggy (newest firmware - 3.111). I hope that Android 6.0 will fix these problems. Also, I don't know what Sony have put in this ROM, but it is 10x slower than the CM 12 Alpha 2.
I have performance issues too. My 2 year old z1 compact is way faster than My 2303 even though i removed a lot of bloatware. It drains the battery faster too. Very annoying. Hope someone develops a decent custom kernel and rom to make it better.

Hey guys
I'm totally new here and nearly a complete noob !
I got a ZOPO ZP600+ 3D phone with android 4.2.2 and kernel version : 3.4.5
Chipset is MT6582 Quad 1.3Ghz A7 with Mali400MP2 @ 500mhz ( I guess ) and 1GB of RAM
I have a problem( with the phone of course ! ) that is messing with my mind
I think its related to 2D rendering
all of the launchers are slow and they're not smooth . they're even slower than a simple dual core phone !
the default live wallpapers are running on slow framerate and laggy (somewhat near 10~15 fps)
and I tested a 2D game called "Line Runner" and it runs like slow motion !!!
I don't know what the hell is wrong with my phone .
I flashed a custom rom ( have exposed framework by default) and changes some settings and tested some exposed options but had no luck fixing the issue
I ran V6 Supercharger script but still didn't fixed it
force gpu rendering on developer options didn't help
I don't have any problems with 3D games and my antutu score is ~17400
( Rooted , Custom rom , Xposed installed , CWM Recovery )
please help me ;( , what should I do to fix this issue ? Its really driving me mad
Come on guys . help me out here
Nobody really knows what the hell is wrong with my device ? :crying:
I can try testing on mine to compare results. My Antutu is also 17000 +. What other test have you made with what score, I will put those on mine and tell you, so that we see if it is consistent, or unique.
I am on my stock ROM though, please note. Has it always been like this with you, even with the stock ROM?
Hey guys, I just got this phone yesterday and while im mostly quite pleased with how it runs, it seems to have terrible gaming performance. I play contest of champions a lot and am suffering extremely choppy frame rates bordering on unplayable. My old moto g 2015 performed smoother. Would a factory reset help? Or would you recommend installing a particular custom ROM or flash a kernel?
Thanks in advance, Sid.
Blu_Spark kernel resolves most of the gaming performance issues. My 2015 Moto G couldn't play GTA SA at more than 5 frames per second but with Blu_spark the OPX can play it just fine.

This kernel will work on Stock ROM? If not, which ROM would you advise?
There are only two kernels out there right now and both are only officially supported by their developers on the Stock Oxygen OS. So yes it will work

this is not a gaming phone so u can try boeffla or blu spark. boeffla can allow u to overclock so that might help
I think you need to install Team Win Recovery (twrp) and then via TWRP flash the kernel zip from either Boeffla or Blu_spark. To be able to alter kernel settings flash the latest SuperSU via TWRP then restart and download for example Kernel Adiutor, or for Boeffla there's a dedicated app. Then you can change settings like the CPU- and GPU-governor. But i know from Blu_spark r114 kernel that it's by default set to blu-sparks optimized CPU governor. Good luck.
In 3D mark for Android (Sling shot ES 3.0) the OPX scores 938 where some other SnapDragon801 devices score something like 1100. That declares a bit of difference, however with optimized kernel settings you should play fluently most games, because they-re optimized for Adreno 320 and higher.
A fast, smooth running Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 with Nougat 7.1.1, is it possible? Sure, but it is best not to use the latest ROM build. After many tests and comparisons of various Nougat ROMs based on LineageOS I've found out this. The development of the ROM is ongoing very quick, but it's made for many devices. The performance of the CPU is not taken into account. Our S2 is now some years old (since 2011) and has only a CPU with two cores. Standard today is at least a phone with quad core CPU.
Comparing a Nougat 7.1.1 ROM from February 2017 with a current build clearly shows you that the older one runs much faster. This is mainly noticeable when scrolling or if you open apps. In the current ROM there are often lags, it simply needs more performance.
To get the maximum out, a few tweaks with a modded Kernel Adiutor from XDA are necessary, the CPU frequency is set to minimum and maximum 1200 MHz. The battery drain of course is a bit higher - not much, but you have more joy with a smooth running S2.
What do you need for this?
I did made the best experience with AICP 12.1 ROM, build in February 07 2017. you get it here. It runs very stable for daily usage. Only the camera app Snap.apk is buggy at video recordings. You can change this by installing the latest one in my attachment.
The modded XDA Kernel Adiutor is attached too.
The CPU and ondemand governor settings (CPU Governor Tunables) you see on my screenshots. Make sure that the "Apply on boot" toggle is set to on.
Can you tell me where I could find jelly bean compatible CWM recovery ?

Jelly Bean has its own, "built-in" recovery. Unfortunately, I am not aware of whether you can take another recovery for it. I know there is a flashable CWM recovery via Odin for the S2 (I have it here). But this is intended for flashing custom ROMs.
@Nobby1960
Hi, good instruction.
Useful article.

I allways used this file "PhilZ-cwm6-XXLSJ-OXX-4.00b21-signed-JB.zip" and installed it via stock Recovery. (no waranty void message after rebooted system). Copy this file on your SDCard, reboot in Recovery Mode and flash it. Now you can keep runing your device on stock ROM or you can install a custom one with this recovery.

Thank you for information. The ROM is no more available on the AICP server. I did upload it to a one click hoster (upload.net) The link in my first post works now again.
Would you still recommend this rom today ? or would the official lineage 7.1.2 be better than this now ?

Compared with the latest AICP 12.1 build from 07/10 it's not necessary to jump back to this older version. The performance from all latest Lineage based ROMs became better. The only thing I use the Kernel Adiutor with the performance settings from my first post. I think you can also use the latest official plain vanilla Lineage 7.1.2.
Hi,
thanx for your instructions. I have tried it!
One problem with the setting where i'm unsure: at the end of the settings, the core2 disabled itself and the minimum frequency was set to 100 automatically. I changed the frequency back to 12.000. Is that OK, or should i leave it at 100 ?
btw. I still have installed stock_kernel_twrp_1120. Is that OK, or do i need another kernel?
Anyway, at this point the CPU tweak has made the perforance a little faster, but it's still much worse than Android 4.12
On 4.12 i was running 5 aktive apps the same time without problems. (Navi, RadarWarning, Mp3, GPSLog, + 1 temporarly app)
On Lineage 14.1 the Mp3 already beginns to stutter and the systems gets very slow when i run only 2 Apps. If i start more apps they beginn to chrash.
So i want to ask, is it possible somehow to get the same (or even better) performance with a custom rom like with the original stock 4.12 ?
Thanks for Info,
Rooster
Hi,
hmm - all settings are correct from the governor like the screenshots in Kernel Adiutor? Both CPU frequencies should set to 1200 MHz. In idle time core 2 stops to save battery, but it must switch up at load to 1200 MHz automatically.
The stock_kernel_twrp_1120 is okay to install this ROM. If you boot in recovery after installation you must see the newer TWRP 3.0.2-1 and you can flash the latest TWRP 3.1.0-0 as an .img file.
The problem with Nougat and most modern apps is, the generally RAM consumption gets higher and higher - that's the biggest bottleneck. So the S2 with only 784 MB comes faster to its limits at multitasking than with the latest stock ROM 4.1.2 Jelly Bean and older, more slim apps. Unfortunately there is no chance to get a higher performance with Nougat. There you feel the age of our good old phone from 2011, it came first with Android 2.3.x Gingerbread

Working on A600G.
Working perfectly with A600G latest update.
For faster charging, I don't see any improvement. Still stuck at 1.500mA like stock kernel. Testing using Samsung Adaptive Charger and Asus Zenfone 2 fast charger.

Thank you for testing! I could try to add Adaptive fast charging but i don't wanna risk explosion :laugh: Plus i don't have this phone. I mainly did the faster charging for people with stock A6 chargers.

thank you. hopefully for A6+ series also
my opinion fast charging not really necessary, for A6+ charging already fast and i prefer to choose default speed charging and long lasting battery than modified/faster charging but degrade battery life span.
so, for this "fast" charging feature thing, you better make 2 version of kernel... (default and modified charging speed)

Sadly, I will not support A6+ because it's a completely different phone with a Snapdragon 450 chip. I work on Exynos7870 phones, specifically this A6. About the fast charging, its up to the user how well they want to treat their battery. With faster charging or not, don't think the difference will be that big since the limitation is the charger. For example, I used to always charge my phone from my PC because it has low current and limit my battery to charge only to 80%. Now i only do the 80% thing but still. My J5 17 is 9 months old and it has only lost 200mAh of its battery capacity.
Phoenix Kernel V1.5 released. Changelog, Download link and a new antutu screenshot is in the 1st post
Hello, I have installed the kernel v1.5 on my Samsung sm-a600g. But the GPU is underclocked to 728 mh. But according to your post it should be overclocked to 1146 mh.

According to my post, the 1146Mhz overclock is optional.
Although I think the default clock is 1001 so i still have to fix it
Hi Renoxtv, I really appreciate your work u have done for the improvement of Samsung a6. But I request you to not only fix the GPU clock but also I think It would be great to have the GPU overclocked to 1146 mhz. Bcoz it has only one core and for gaming performance it MUST be overclocked to 1146 mhz. Hoping the best from you.

GPU OC is optional and will remain optional, I don't want complains about battery life. You can overclock your GPU manually with this app: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tnWJvqhvj3s41V1LMRdrtyGYCsLEwNbV/view?usp=sharing (thanks for @DarkLord1731 for app)
Go to GPU tab, select min and max GPU frequency to 1146, set Mali Power policy to always_on and set GPU governor to Booster. Revert settings when you are done with your gaming, otherwise the GPU will always run at 1146MHz even when you're not playing and it will waste your battery. Anyway, A6 is not a gaming phone in any means and this kernel won't improve it a lot. I know the GPU OC is a little complicated but for now this is what we are stuck with
Hi Renoxtv, thank you for replying so fast. I downloaded the kernel control app u provided in ur post. Everything gone as u told. Thanks to @DarkLord1731 too for his amazing kernel app. Now I can overclock the GPU as per my requirements. U are right that Samsung A6 is not the handset for gamers. But due to ur custom kernel the little overclocking in CPU and GPU will surely improve the gaming performance a bit. By the way keep up the good work and best of luck to u. :good:

If you already rooted your A6 before, installing the kernel is easy. You just download the latest kernel and flash it with TWRP. If you haven't rooted your phone, you must install custom TWRP recovery menu, go here to go to the TWRP thread, there are detailed instructions on how to install TWRP there, follow them strictly. If you successfully installed TWRP, you can then flash this kernel like you would install the rmm bypass zip and no-verity zip.

MY PROBLEM RMM PRENORMAL ?!
thanks
I have a problem, I have tried with several ROMs based on stock miui9 and miui10 and none of them work with me Kernel auditor, to be more exact I put the CPU in perfomance so that they go ah their maximum speed but when playing critical ops the fps do not they are stable, they go down and go up between 40 and 60, whereas in the rom pixel experience with Kernel auditor they remain stable, between 58 and 60fps, is there any way for Kernel auditor to work in stock?
excuse my english but I use the translator
Same problem here
Me too. It's not working. Any solution?
