Rodin Essential v1.18.5 — Aurora

A deeper level of control, with a more responsive and consistent interface.

Per-App Controls

  • Added individual touch response, refresh rate, CPU and GPU settings for each app.
  • Set independent CPU cores, cluster frequency ranges and governors per app.
  • Choose supported 60/90/120 Hz refresh modes or OEM Adaptive.
  • Selected overrides take priority while the app is in the foreground. Other controls continue following your global settings.
  • Leaving the app or disabling Per-App Controls restores your previous global/ROM settings.
  • Profiles remain saved across reboots and work without keeping Rodin Essential open.
  • Per-App Controls is off by default; configure profiles before enabling them.
  • Search installed apps using their actual names and icons. System apps are hidden by default and can be shown when needed.
  • Reset an individual profile or clear all profiles from the section.

Memory DVFS & UFS

  • Added a dedicated hub for LPDDR5X Memory DVFS and UFS 4.0 controls.
  • Set dynamic frequency ranges or equal minimum/maximum requests with Exact Lock.
  • View current driver readings, active limits and your selected targets separately.
  • Select frequencies supported by the device's drivers, with haptic slider feedback.
  • Restore the original settings using OEM Reset.
  • These are session controls: closing the app keeps them active; rebooting or restarting the daemon restores the original settings.

Bypass Charging Tile

  • Added a Bypass Charging tile to Quick Settings / Control Center.
  • Toggle bypass without opening Rodin Essential.
  • Long-press the tile to open Charging Control directly.
  • Added a matching bypass icon and on/off state feedback.

Interface & Interaction

  • Refined Home and Control Hubs with clearer live information and a more consistent layout.
  • Added rotating, colour-accented headlines to the Control Hubs banner.
  • Added connected page transitions and predictive Back previews on supported Android versions.
  • Added touch-following lighting, spring press feedback and more consistent haptics.
  • Improved scrolling, page-opening and Back transitions, including gesture cancellation.
  • Improved floating-dock dragging and tab switching, with clearer selection feedback.
  • Refined glass headers and improved card outlines and dividers in light mode.
  • Unified slider value bubbles across Dynamic Range and Exact Lock controls.
  • Improved text wrapping and spacing across CPU, display, resolution, ZRAM, Support and app-control screens.
  • Improved clearance between floating feedback cards, the dock, navigation bar and keyboard.

Fixes & Changes

  • Improved CPU core changes when the driver temporarily reports busy.
  • Improved app/backend communication so control requests do not block interface interaction.
  • Improved rendering when Android recreates the app window or the app returns from the background.
  • Removed Double Tap to Wake from Rodin Essential; use your ROM's setting instead.

ROM Maintainers

Bypass charging requires a compatible kernel interface. Refresh rates and subsystem frequency choices depend on the modes exposed by your device's drivers.
