This thread is for guys who want to enjoy smoothness of Oreo/pie ROM & at the same time derive SOT of >5hrs.
Currently I have installed Revenge OS (PIE) with 26s firmware & was getting 3.5hrs SOT consistently with all day browsing Chrome & other social media apps.
Then I flashed AKT Profiles 1.6 zip via twrp & chose X.A.N.A. battery profile. Now I'm getting >5hrs SOT.
AKT Profiles were originally meant for ONEPLUS 3, but as LE MAX2 shares d same sd820 processor, it is also supported.
Above profile may be downloaded from d below link

Hey, I know this is well trodden territory and trust me I've read every post available on the subject, but I can not get *smooth* flash video on any website - namely ABC.com and HULU.com. I personally don't use those websites, but my GF does extensively. Here are the two scenarios I am trying to get working:
1. Task's 14 full w/pershoot's latest kernel (OC'ed 1.4ghz) - I have tried using the stock Browser and Dolphin HD, same results in both. I have modded the lib file from AND to WIN on the latest Flash update, but the video is choppy and the subtitles do not sync well. I have reduced the resolution to 240p and run the videos as full screen, but the playback is still choppy - thankfully the audio is at least synced.
- Is there a better way to set this up?
- Is there a script I can run to improve performance?
- Is there another browser that has better performance?
2. CM9 nightly (no mods) - In this scenario I am able to mod the lib file, but the websites cause the stock browser and Dolphin HD to lock up (won't load any other pages either). None of the modded apk's available work either. The websites will load, but when I click on a video or flash element the browser will hang.
- Same questions from above.
I'd like to skip the discussion over flash as a dead technology, and that flash wasn't really meant for mobile technology... Right now, Hulu and ABC use flash and right now Hulu and ABC do not provide android apps. I am not interested in paying for Hulu Plus just for the ability to access the basic features of the website.
If the answer is simply, scenario 1 is the best possible at this time - I can accept that. But hopefully someone will be able to provide some tips or instructions on improving the quality of flash on the 10.1 tablet (my thinking, if a p4 1ghz w/512ram can run hulu without a problem, why does my tablet not have enough horsepower?).
Thanks in advance. Please let me know if there is any further information I can provide (and if it is some kind of log, how I can get the information to provide).

Unforunately, not that I am aware of.

Any browser not based on the built-in webkit (such as Chrome and Firefox) are unable to access the flash plugin anyway

The problem is is the cheap port that Adobe made to get Flash to run on ARM.
I have a seamless loop player that runs fine on x86 (any platform), but skips during the loop on ARM. I've tried recalculating the buffers in the swf, but no... It is just a really shoddy platform.
try using Opera Mobile Web browser (not Mini version). I just click on flash clip i want to display on page, and it runs. Other flash clips are turned off so the performance is focused on that one i'm watching (i hope so )
Have you tried the following settings? If you aren't on ICS, then you need to download NoFrills (Free) on market
Max 1.4
Min 216
Governor: Performance
I/O : Noop or BFQ but some say the BFQ cycles are poor making noop the best for cycles.
Apply and tell me if you feel this has made it more, bearable?
I do agree with zefie over the poor portover to ARM devices which is why we suffer when Android was supposed to be the dominator over Apples no-flash policy.
I would suggest after you are done watching or whatever, you change the governor back to ondemand as performance keeps the CPU at 100% processing making it eat more juice. Video watching itself drains battery, and so will the governor.
I'm having trouble finding how to switch for bfq to noop. Do I need to load a script or flash another kernel?
Use Nofrills o.o It's the market, and free, you can change it there. You probably must be on ICS if you can't find to change from BFQ, But regardless it's fine you dont have to worry since the cycles are almost the same, Noop is just more stable compared to BFQ

Thank you for the help and the suggestions. Unfortunately the result was the same to my GF's eyes. I suppose I'll have to hope that Netflix keeps her viewing needs satisfied, or that Hulu will release a proper app.
As of the moment Hulu and Netflix are so IOS oriented, They should start optimizing their apps for Android series aswell. Probably some rivalry issues but this shouldn't be a reason limit their customers.
Let's just hope something off the bat arrives and improves it on it's own.
What is the best ROM for non gamers or light users with good battery life and custom kernel support
The 3 ROMs you mention will all serve you well, battery life does not differ that much from rom to rom ... PA discourages use of custom kernels.
none
Gaming is one thing but using facebook FB messenger, Whatapps, intagram, snapchat... can also have a different result on the battery use.
So you'll have to test by yourself...
Don't install gapps, use another alternative like fdroid or maybe apkmirror... But i don't think that will make some differences..
Another option do not install Facebook and Twitter, instead use 3rd party clients like simple or fast for FB, fenix or falcon for Twitter. And don't watch YouTube too much, use wifi instead mobile data.. Etc
More important, use your device wisely, no such thing as "best" for "non gamers" ROM...
i'm like you bro
i've been told that sultan cm 13 rom with 3.4 kernel is the best
did you managed to find the best rom for your case so far ?
Hi guys,
Has anyone successfully managed to use this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-pub-gfx-tool-xda-1-gfx-tool-pubg-t3830287 to boost performance on PUBG?
I tried several options and could never get it to work.
Is it due to the new GPU Turbo? I hadn't tried or really played PUBG before so I'm not sure.
Thanks

I used gfx tool version from play store. It is not meant to boost performance As far as I know. It gives you graphics option that are normally restricted oder Not available ingame. (Like always allow up to 60fps or have high graphics but no/low shadows).
Currently using it
I've tried almost all gfx tools since beginning.
Yet pub gfx+ tool is currently my favourite.
The others gfx tools have fewer setting making them suited for casual users,
yet varieties of settings in pub gfx+ tool make most people confused.
But i prefer this tool for having settings like
1 opengl setting vulkan for >7.0android versions
2 gpu optimization
3 shadow quality, distance, pixel
4 Anisotrophy
5 rendering lvl
6 detail mode + it's quality
7 Save ingame setting (others tool makes settings like sensitivity default)
Plus works upto HDR extreme, which also visible in ingame graphic setting(other only effect, not shown in graphic setting)
But enabling vulkan in android version less than 7 may result in unstability of the game.
The reason it doesn't work in your phone might also because of limiting app permission setting(in huawei xiaomi phone disable all new app permissions as deafult)
Go to phone setting > App pwrmission > find Pub gfx+ tools > and enable Storage and phone permissions
letting the app write in storage to effect.
If you are not sure about setting in pub gfx+ tool
i suggest try
1 Zero Lag mode and fining d Suitable setting according to your phone RAM(graphic profile just below zerolag)
Or
2 use Gfx tool which is easier
apkpure.com/p/eu.tsoml.graphicssettings
PubgM dev announced that using gfx tool might result in acc banned for 30days, yet i've been using it a long time yet not result in acc banned. (used only trusted gfx apps)
But try using those at your own risk, i ain't garuntee tho.

Yes it works good if you are having any problems just see my YouTube channel video and adjust the settings.
I have shown settings for 1-2 GB ram 2-3 GB ram 3-4 GB ram 4-6 GB ram 8 GB ram. Here's the link https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9RFV9ynZWj954t1X0-deyg
Good
Hello there,
I am a P20 Iite user. The point is: i am on an Android 10 based custom ROM, and battery is like dead: on stock EMUI i was able to reach 7 hours of usage per day, now i am able only to reach 2 hours, without a heavy usage like gaming or downloading big files.
The main problem is anyway, that on emui 8, most of the developers force the GPU to compose the screen. This is the point.
Now, this option disables HW Overlays, so the CPU won't manage to compose the screen.
This creates battery drain.
I want to resolve this problem. I wanted to open a new thread on XDA to solve this problem, together with other people, perhaps even more experienced in the sector, such as developers, for example. So if you want to help me, then send me possible solutions so we will try to talk about them together, to finally find a final solution.
Cheers and thanks
Send this to the developer of the custom rom
Hello, I'm making this thread in the hopes to answer the question nobody asked. My daily driver the Stylo 5 died for no reason and I'm back to using this phone. upon looking if anybody has done anything new with this phone I wanted to try out all the custom roms and log my personal opinion about each of them. You may not agree but these are by opinions.
