ASB-V59
AutoSystemBoost — Changelog
V59 — cooler thermals, quieter nights, leaner games
Full-day field logs drove every change here. The headline is a thermal-decision
rework: ASB was reading a junction sensor that sits at 85–95 °C under any load
and treating it as "hot", so its veto fired constantly during normal use — while
the phone's actual surface was ~50 °C. V59 anchors thermal decisions to
user-facing skin temperature, stops asking the CPU for clocks the vendor clamps
away anyway, and fixes a batch of smaller diagnostics and Bluetooth issues.
🌡️ Skin-anchored thermal veto — no more false throttling on a hot die
The cpu_max sensor (cpu-1-1-1) is a junction/skin-hybrid that reads 85–95 °C
under load, so gating the Smart veto and throttle on it forced battery-lean bias
during ordinary bursts — defeating race-to-idle (which costs heat and drain, not
saves them). ASB now decides on the shell/skin sensor when one is present
(thermal_skin_c, default 47 °C) with a junction hard-limit as a silicon
safety net (thermal_junction_hard_c, default 95 °C). No skin sensor → it falls
back to the original junction gate, so behaviour is unchanged on devices without
one. Genuine skin heat and true silicon emergencies still throttle; a merely-hot
die during a light burst no longer does.
🎮 Gaming CPU ceiling — stop paying for clocks the vendor won't give
In gaming, the smart curve could declare scaling_max up to ~3 GHz, but the vendor
PowerHAL clamps the real clock to ~2.2 GHz regardless — so the extra request buys
zero FPS and only drives brief high-voltage OPP excursions (more heat + drain).
A new gaming_cpu_max_ceiling_khz (default 2.4 GHz, 0=off) caps the declared
max during the GAMING state to just above the vendor's settle point. Applied
across representative and extra physical clusters (OP12's 4th cluster included).
🎧 Bluetooth volume: quiet-after-reboot fixed for every mode
Changing absolute-volume state left BT output quiet until an EQ/ViPER app
re-attached its effect. ASB now re-initialises the audio stack once at boot (waits
for the audio HAL, then restarts audioserver) for all three bt_absvol_mode
values, so the state is live from the first connection. The one-time on → auto
migration that overrode a deliberate choice was removed — your setting now persists
across updates.
📡 Mobile data no longer throttled during active use
The network layer no longer applies its screen-off battery bias while the screen is
on, so foreground data stays at full speed.
⚙️ WALT input-boost now matches the real CPU topology
apply_walt_boost was hard-coded to policies 0 4 7 (the old SM8550 layout);
OP15 (0,6) and SM8650 (0,2,5,7) never matched it, so some clusters were
silently skipped. It now discovers the device's actual cpufreq policies.
🔋 One more idle offender + cleaner diagnostics
com.oplus.oidt (an OPPO diagnostic hourly-timer seen in the wake logs) joins the
rare standby bucket. Diagnostics were tightened too: the full-day report no
longer hides most of the night, the screen-off metric measures the whole night
(not the last hour), a sleep/post_wake unreachable-code path was fixed, gaming
detection now uses a single reader with hysteresis, and update.json points at the
correct release.
💅 Installer & WebUI polish
A refreshed installer banner (multi-device, cleaner section rules) and an improved
WebUI. The ASB signature art stays.
