Device side change log
Sanji- Synced Latest Voltage v3.7-EOL changes
- Merged September ASB
- Drop COMMON_LUNCH_CHOICES
* As of 14 QPR2 this is broken, let's remove it instead of updating it
every 3 months. breakfast is the way to go.
- Change default density to 420. looks better
- Hide dac_override spam
- Disable intrusive gms components
* these processes were not allowed to run in background and yet they still persist everytime causing logspam and unnecessary broadcast, we may want to disable "GmsIntentOperationService" but some users on xda reported broken notifications on stuffs like google keep and maybe other google apps that relies on GmsIntentOperationService broadcasts.

(testing, do let me know if anyone faces issues wiht google apps notification delays)
- Remove configs that do not exists.
- Disable pocket lock and light sensor
* Since we don't have proximity sensor, its useless. Lets just disable it to save power
- Use the new auto network selection UI
- Many more improvements for better bb and smoothness
--- old chnages
- Added dolby valume leveler and serround virtualizer
- Added battery cycle count in battery settings
- Allowed HFR for Miui Camera
* Add Miui Camera to the list of package IDs that are allowed to skip camera high frame rate checks.
- Override cgroups.json & task_profiles.json
* In order to allow uclamp kernels to place tasks correctly
- Set zram to 30% from entire RAM
- 50% is big amount which I don't track to be loaded even in half in various big apps multitasking
- Zram is good for multitasking, but we need to handle heavy apps also, so let's decrease following amount to benefit from regular RAM
- Fixed permissions for PowerHAL
* W libperfmgr: Failed to write to node: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq with value: XXXXX fd: -1
W libperfmgr: Failed to write to node: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu6/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq with value: XXXXX fd: -1
- Stop trying to set ro.sf.lcd_density prop
* It's wrong because we have devices with different screen densities,
and does not work:
W libc : Unable to set property "ro.sf.lcd_density" to "480": error code: 0xb
- Remove legacy ril-daemon and vendor.ril-daemon rules
* W libc : Unable to set property "ctl.stop" to "vendor.ril-daemon": error code: 0x20
- Address persist.hydra.mem_trace denial
* Access denied finding property "persist.hydra.mem_trace"
- Use prebuilt gralloc libs
* Fixes the following issue:
08-27 00:14:33.062 1022 1257 E qdgralloc: GetGpuPixelFormat: No map for format: 0x38
08-27 00:14:33.062 1022 1257 E AdrenoUtils: <validate_memory_layout_input_parmas:1984>: Unknown Format 0

08-27 00:14:33.062 4181 4538 E AHardwareBuffer: GraphicBuffer(w=1, h=1, lc=1) failed (Unknown error -1), handle=0x0
- Drop SUSTAINED_PERFORMANCE
* This sometimes keeps the CPU frequencies locked at the set limit even when it's not needed,
i.e. playing videos which need hardware decoder, leading to increased power draw, battery drain and heat.
Drop SUSTAINED_PERFORMANCE tick from powerhint and let the CPU ramp up it's frequencies when needed,
i.e. on demand to counteract the said issue.
- Auto brightness adjustment
* Make auto brightness more stable, prevent the brightness from
jittering repeatedly in dim environment.
- Enable ro.audio.monitorRotation
* Adjusts stereo speaker according to device orientation.
- Disable DRC
* DRC is audio policy to 'compress' volume table, which causes low max volume. Disable it for now
- Use limited alpha & fading marquee
* Completely eliminates occasional jank in few animations
- Disable vsync for CPU rendered Apps
* Choreographer VSync has some performance impact for CPU rendered apps
as the app has to wait for VSync to start a new frame draw. When the
frame draw time exceeds one VSync, this has a direct impact on the FPS.
debug.cpurend.vsync property controls the VSync for CPU rendered apps.
Disable VSync for CPU rendered app, by setting this property to false.
------old changes
- Synced Latest Voltage v3.6 changes
- Merged August ASB
- Fully Rebased common device tree
- Dropped old style HBM and DC dimming and their kernel based implantation
- Introducing new HBM and DC dimming. Credits @EmanuelCN
- Use game thermal as fallback for GameSpace's listed apps
* This will apply the "gaming" thermal preset to the app that listed
at GameSpace's library, but aren't yet configured by user on thermal
settings.
With this behavior, we can get saner default on gaming scenarios without
having to force user choice.
- Reverted TOGGLEABLE_TILE in Dirac for now
- Moved thermal profiles to system settings
* let's not pollute our beautiful battery settings menu
- Added thermal profiles tile
* Launches ThermalActivity
- Tuned zram performance
*Switch to LZ4 for better overall performance
- Set zram size to 50% of total ram
* As recommended by CAF
- Silenced some spammy logging
- Allowed more cached apps in the background
- Increased wifi max bss count
- Enabled wifi QPower and Deep sleep at the same time
* This enables Deep Sleep mode, additionally to QPower
* With this configuration, QPower manages the new Deep sleep mode
-> Leads to amazing power savings
- Enabled automatic channel selection
* Automatic Channel Selection algorithms and implementations
are used to enable interfaces to automatically figure
out which channel configuration to use for initiating
communication, for any mode of operation which initiates
radiation (AP, Mesh, IBSS, P2P).
- Enabled support for IEEE80211AC
* This is to allow supporting GO with 11AC support.
- Enabled support for IEEE80211AX
* This is to allow supporting WiFi 6 mobile hotspots,
to be noted this is only supported on SDM855+ platforms.
- Many Wireless improvments
- Smarter wifi decisions on whether to use 2/5Ghz AP
* Implement a smarter system on whether to connect to the provided 2Ghz or 5Ghz network
- Switch gEnablePowerSaveOffload to 5
*This should improve VoIP calls performance
- Removed TxPower2g and 5g, because they weren't been used
- Addressed telephony denials
- Suppress warning related to NNAPI HAL accessing zeroth.debuglog.logmask
- Disable QCOM system daemon
* For factory use only and has real performance costs.
- Remove unnecessary QTI logkit directories
* We do not use logkit
- Strip off some debug packages
* Ref: https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/configure#compilation_options
Q: PRODUCT_MINIMIZE_JAVA_DEBUG_INFO wth does this do?
A: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/+/master/target/product/go_defaults_common.mk#68
- Address batterysecret denial
* Even MIUI provides create file permission.
- Update pinner configuration
* Pin critical graphics libraries
Inspired from AOSPA/android_vendor_aospa@c33cdcb
- Set readahead_size_kb=128 to main partitions
*To avoid memory pressure
- Offload WM shell to another thread
* Android 12 added this config to offload some window management to a
dedicated thread. Enable it to improve performance when the main System
UI thread is busy.
- Set default wifi country code to '00'
* By default, AOSP uses the 'US' country code for wifi.
When a SIM is present, Android can check the correct country
(using information from the SIM itself) and it can set the correct
country code.
However, if no SIM is present or if the phone is in airplane mode,
Android will just use 'US' as country code and it will disable access to
a lot of frequencies.
To bypass this issue, set the default country code to '00': this
is the "world regulatory domain" and it contains generic settings.
When a SIM is inserted, Android will overwrite the default setting with
the correct country code.

- Don't pin launcher app in memory
* Similar to what we did for the camera app, unpin the launcher app from
memory as well. While the default launcher (Launcher3) isn't
particularly big, it doesn't make much sense to pin because the launcher
does not typically load new resources much. Most of its resources should
already be loaded in memory after it starts, so pinning the APK is
redundant.
NB: The value has been changed to false instead of removing it entirely
because we need to override the config set by overlays in the prebuilt
vendor image.
- Change all three default haptic levels to high
* Test: verify default haptic levels set to high on r4
- Enable suspend to RAM
* Improves idle drain considerably
- Bind mount Wifi Aware feature permissions.
* Fixes issues when GPS and Wifi are switched on simultaneously.
* Also kills logspam regarding NAN.
- Wifi: set inactivity time
* Wait for 1 second to let wifi driver do
complete clean reset of SW/HW.
Test: perform watchdog recovery and success
- Extend gInterfaceChangeWait to 2 seconds for avoid crash when "adb reboot"
* Test: "adb reboot" test more than 4000 times and not hit crash as b/131123423
Wifi work normally after the same test.
- Props: RIL edits for battery life
* Changed “ro.ril.disable.power.collapse” value to zero.
Seems to be a debate on what value is more effective but after more reading and testing found that a value of “0” shows more improvement.
Have also added “ro.mot.eri.losalert.delay=1000 “ that helps smooth out disconnects and reconnects, saving battery.
- Add some libraries to pinner list
* Add some librart which will load during camera launch to reduce camera
launch time in I/O busy case.
- Overlay: Frameworks: Update pinner configuration
* Drop unused 32-bit libs.
Drop RS libs as they're deprecated since 12.
Add few adreno (EGL) libs, taken from MIUI.
Add libipebpsstriping170 for yupik camx.
- Reduced aod brightness value
- Silence OpenGLRenderer logspams
- props: Add more props for battery saving
- props: Clean up useless logspams
- Update Adreno to LA.UM.9.14.r1-20200-LAHAINA.QSSI13.0
- Update adreno blobs from LA.VENDOR.1.0.r1-16000-WAIPIO.QSSI13.0
- overlay: Tune max notification icons visible
* Ref:
- AOSPA/android_device_xiaomi_marble@3db7e76.
- AOSPA/android_device_xiaomi_marble@7d57769.
- Powerhint: Set to powersave governor when device is idle
* This should help improve drains while device on idle
- Disabled VT
* Avoid unexpected hangups due to failure to establish a connection
- Switched to common libqti-perfd-client and power-libperfmgr
- Added advanced debugging tools to get logs even in userdebug/user builds
- Misc improvement
