Added my own antiflicker, and sunlight mode services (livedisplay) implementation. :) sunlight mode is working, we now have high brightness mode.

Antiflicker... Hmm idk what's the problem the sysfs node is right but for some reason it can't right to it, even though HBM mode uses the same node. And no sepolicy denials either

Fixed DC dimming :)

🛠️ Build journey snapshot for deca

Finally managed to learn how to get my custom mi_thermald's source code to be included in the ROM build, instead of building it separately. :)

Hmhmhm, added more nodes in powerhint config.

More haptics, on recent apps (cycling through the apps)
selecting texts in browser (dragging the text handles)

Add more configs for libperfmgr!
(targeted more Walt nodes)

Some zram configurations
Some props configurations.

Copied some overlays configs from stock, instead of using common ones.

Added more charging controls configurations for all kinds of charger, quick charge type 1, 2, 3, non Xiaomi charger and whatnot, in my custom mi_thermald daemon!

Switched zRAM to zstd. Lz4 is fast, but its compression ratio sucks—you'll eat through RAM fast if you push the phone. Other algorithms compress better but hog the CPU. zstd hits the middle ground: way better compression than lz4 so background apps actually stay alive, plus decompression is quick. Works well with the SD685's memory bandwidth limits.

Tweaked mi_thermald. Charging speeds are faster now, both screen-off and a bit screen-on too. It'll warm up during fast charging, but I hard-capped it at 42°C so the battery doesn't cook.

Redid powerhint.json. No more brute-forcing frequencies—it actually scales properly now. LAUNCH pins the big cores at 2.8GHz, wakes the GPU, and spikes memory bandwidth for 1 second so apps open instantly. INTERACTION adds a 40ms WALT input boost with reasonable frequency floors (1.34GHz big / 940MHz little) so UI scrolling stays smooth. I also pulled back max clocks a little on SUSTAINED_PERFORMANCE and EXPENSIVE_RENDERING to stop heavy thermal throttling during games.

Pulled stock resource overlays (telephony_inject.xml, carrierresconfig, wifires, telecomm) and built the missing telephony framework jars from stock. This forces the OS to use Qualcomm's native RIL and data routing instead of AOSP fallbacks.

Squashed vendor_qti_init_shell AVC denials. Post-boot scripts were getting silently blocked from applying sysfs configs at boot. Fixed the policies so they actually take effect now.

Cleaned up system log spam. Removed obsolete entries in perf/commonresourceconfig and init.qcom.post_boot.sh that were constantly throwing errors because they were trying to hit nodes that don't exist.

Tweaked haptics. Bumped vibration intensity for navigation keys and system gestures—feels a bit sharper and crisper now.

Is this good? 6 hours of screen on time for almost 50% battery from 100%?
