Custom kernel for M6Pro

[stevejc]

and which is the meaning of this button?

Hi, don't know, I've got a M8HD but maybe something like in JB a full screen button

If someone who has tried it, can tell ?

Hi,

There is also for M7Pro and M9pro, these one here with the same button

I was just trying to figure out what you are doing to improve GPS. By just adjusting voltages...or have you found a patch? Just PM me if you don't want to answer here.

Not a problem to that all knows what I'm doing/thinking.
First of all Maakie is doing a very good job with is kernels, Now GPS is working a lot better, but I saw too hogh voltages in his mods. So I always mod them before flashing.

Then I downloaded these 2 modded chinese ROMs:

One is supposed to improve GPS and has various other optimizations: http://www.pipo.cn/bbs/forum.php?mod...extra=page%3D1
I would like to test at least its kernel.

The other one seems interesting about the new command on the bottom bar (take a look on the screenshots): http://www.pipo.cn/bbs/forum.php?mod...extra=page%3D2
For this one should be interesting to try the whole rom.

[giouncino]

not yet unfortunately...
I still can only do some minor mods...

[rrileypm]

Giouncino, are you compiling kernels now?

[giouncino]

very good.
I will perform testing soon!

[maakie]

Antutu results are identical or a little bit less than my mod kernels (about 21.000 points).
I need to test a little bit more this kernel about battery duration I switched CPU governor to "hotplug" to make a more significant test.

The worst thing is that GPS is less sensitive (tested on 2 different pipo m6pro)

I've have updated the first post with a new version which has GPS working better.

Hello - Did you run an ANttu? What did you get?

Thanks

Question on Performance

Iìm testing your kernel and I made some mod to reduce power drain.
I removed also 1.6Ghz (on my mod I left 1.4 and 1.7 and removed 1.6Ghz).
I set ram to [email protected] instead of [email protected]

The splash screen is really beautiful!

All seems working properly now.
I'm having some trouble with GPS though...

[giouncino]

The M6Pro stock kernel is built from older source code. I think it would be quite easy to modify the overclockomatic script to find the tables.

Not true for M6pro kernel!!!
Also on RileROM 1.8 stock kernel RAM Freq/volt are still visible

[giouncino]

Rockchip has changed some values in the DDR freq/volt tables which makes overclockomatic not find it.

Also on RileROM 1.8 stock kernel RAM Freq/volt are still visible.

Now I modded the script to see ram tables, that on your kernel is:
== Table 8 at offset 9322420 ==
MHz mV
200 925 1 DDR_FREQ_SUSPEND
300 975 2 DDR_FREQ_VIDEO
400 1100
500 1150
600 1200
700 1250
800 1300 256 DDR_FREQ_NORMAL


== Table 9 at offset 9322484 ==
MHz mV
200 950 1 DDR_FREQ_SUSPEND
460 1150 256 DDR_FREQ_NORMAL



BUT ON STOCK KERNEL IS:

== Table 8 at offset 10212716 ==
MHz mV
580 1300 1 DDR_FREQ_NORMAL

Did you use a stock kernel for M6pro to prepare your modded one?

[maakie]

what about RAM frequency/voltage?
Why is no more visible on table 8 with overclockomatic script?
