safe temperature CPU throttle s615 (ZE601KL) - Zenfone 2 Laser General

Hi all ! First, sorry for my english :/
I want to talk about the cpu throttle and the thermal-config file.
I've seen the snapdragon throttle at 60°C ( CPU2 and 3 disconnect and other keep 800Mhz) and i want test to remove the thermal-config file for unlock this limit.
So without the thermal file, cpu throttle is at 80°C (Just CPU 2 is disconnect, CPU0,1,2 and 3 at 1,6/1,4Ghz and 4,5,6,7 at 1100/800mhz) so far away better. No GPU throttle, always 550Mhz (see with GFXBench)
Without thermal file, i dont have any lag with Poke Go and NonStop Knight when i play long time so...
And my question is, is it safe to use the phone with CPU at 80°C or not ? I think not (not very higher than 60°C) but i just don't want burn my phone XD

hey, how did u edited that file? can u tell me witch file is? this phone sucks gaming after 5 min cpu locks to 800mhz and almost every game sucks like that...
PD: is awesome that noone even bother answering your post in a freeking year and a half......

Waw sorry but I dont have this phone now... I have changed à long time ago xD
I'm with a Mi Mix 2 now so i cant help you sry...

[Q] Overclocking: @ What Mhz R U Running 4 Peak Performance?

Just got my Note
Want to overclock it badly...had my previous HD2 running at 1.5 and it never had a problem occasionally it would overheat and auto reboot but not often...
How fast have people gotten it up to and what seems to be the safe zones? I found that at 1.35 on the HD2 wouldnt overheat no matter what you thru at it....
Have we found any sweet spot overclock speeds yet?
i have seen in many post. its 1700Mhz..
Dear TopOfNewYork,
We have two kernels for overclock; FM Kernel v1.6 and AbyssNote Kernel v3.0... I prefer AbyssNote since it has much more features and updated often...
For both kernels, 3 choices of overclock speed 1600,1664 and 1704...
I use 1600 @ 1300mV daily and heat can reach up to 50c while charging and playing demanding games... On normal use it is around 36c. @1300 mV my cpu is stable...
I dont use 1664 and 1704 since there will be more heat and instability...
For me, the best is using stock clock speed undervolted 1400 @ 1175 mV. Phone doesnt get hot and performance is still impressive...
Kind regards,
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
that temp speed balance sounds perfect PROTO I used to try to keep my hd2 under 49C what do you think of going with the highest clock speeds and just setting profiles and governors based on temp and battery levels w setcpu?
or will I still experience instability simply by using the higher clocked kernels, I think no but I dont have that much kernel knowledge when it comes to setting the speeds in the kernel itself, i usually leave that up to experienced & trusted chefs
Dear TopOfNewYork,
I dont use profiles since they can cause deep sleep issues( screen off profile i mean )... I overclock with Voltage Control app...
Phone reaches around 50 c while charging and playing demanding games at the same time @1600 Mhz so overclocking to 1600 can be the best choice when not charging and 1400mhz is best for charging... If u use SetCpu app, u can use charging profile and set the clock to 200-1400 Mhz...
I also did 1664 and 1704 with various voltages but got some stability issues so i revert back to 200-1600 as my default...
Here is my voltage settings:
Rom: 4lph4 n3v3r d135 v1.2.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424401
Kernel: AbyssNote v3.0 Final http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362424
100 ( dont use - makes phone wake-up slow )
200 - 825 mV
500 - 825 mV
800 - 925 mV
1000 - 1000 mV
1200 - 1075 mV
1400 - 1175 mV
1600 - 1300 mV
1664 ( dont use - stability issues )
1704 ( dont use - stability issues )
These are my numbers that my cpu can do... Values may vary phone to phone , cpu to cpu so it is better to test and find the best value for your phone... Hope these helps...

and here i thought that when my phone reaches 50 degrees, it is in overheat mode.
nice to know that such temperatures are well within normal expectations when doing heavy tasks.

I dont advice to run device long time when it reaches over 50c... I guess around 50c-55c is a little bit risky...

PROTOCHIP,
How do you test stability with 1.4Ghz @ 1175mV?
EDIT:
I tried 1.6Ghz @ 1300mV the phone is just too hot to hold

Dear EarlqZ,
To Test Stability:
1- Run 3 times "Antutu Benchmark"
2- Run 3 Times "NeoCore Benchmark"
3- Run 3 times "Nenamark1"
4- Run 3 times "Quadrant Standart"
5- Run 30 minutes "StabilityTest"
6- Play 10 minutes of 1080p TS and MKV movies in SW mode with bsplayer or mxplayer
If all these tests passed and if phone doesnt lock then i confirm the Mhz and mV...
For [email protected] , Yes PHONE MAY REACH over 50c while charging and playing demanding games at the same time... While on mobile, phone temperature is between acceptable ranges around 38-46c when playing demanding games... On idle, temp is around 22-28... Best choice is using phone [email protected] or [email protected] depending on the cpu; test and find out if ur cpu can handle this mV... Hope all these helps...
Kind Regards,

Dear Earlz,
You can use SetCpu widget or "System Panel" app to observe temps. Day by day, u get more experience and can guess the aprox. temp by touching
Also "StabilityTest" app shows temp while running...
Kind Regards,
I have System Panel app and it only shows battery temps, is that a mislabeled CPU temp ?

[Q] Undervolted

I've undervolted my device and right now I have
100mhz - 825 mah
200mhz - 825 mah
500mhz - 800 mah
for some reason the 500mhz setting is stable and if I undervolt 100mhz/200mhz even more, I crash.
If I set my minimum processor power to 500mhz would I consume less batter than if I were to use 100mhz/200mhz?
Your phone spends most of its time in the lowest and highest cpu frequencies and just a small amount of time at the intermediate levels. Your undervolt for 500mhz probably isn't stable but it doesn't crash because it's only at that frequency for a very short amount of time. If you set the minimum to 500mhz at that voltage it will probably start playing up.
http:/ /db.tt/iy1bKVoB
graph of my cpu levels
Abit offtopic but what the hell!
I was wondering if there's any risks involved with undervolting?
I don't meen the crashes and freeze ups, but rather more like if there's any risk
to really damage your phone from it?
I have and still do alot of OC in the computer world, and do know what overvolting can do. But i'm still curious about what uv can do to your system.

It's been my minimum even before posting this thread. I just started to wonder.
I've been on it for 10 hours now. I have 45% battery life left. Probably due to my 1700mhz being @ 1350mah right now.
I can assure you, it's VERY stable. It's so SMOOTH. Smoother than just having rocketrom and all that stuff. NO LAGS, NO SHUTDOWNS. ALL STABLE.
I can see better battery life, and CPU Spy says it used up 47% 1700mhz and 40% 500mhz. I think it's giving me better battery life.
It's evenly splitted up probably because I was using lulzactive governor.
but then again I didn't log my previous battery life without undervolting.
Some more insight would be nice.

There are alot of risks. Minor chance that you will cause hardware damage to your phone but I'm saying VERY minor. Just don't be stupid with voltages, like just suddenly overdropping the voltages. Your processor might die.
It's scary as hell, it crashes alot while testing and all that ****.
Feels good when you get it stable though.
TL;DR
Very slight chance to damage your hardware; only if you're very daring.
It should increase your battery life by atleast 20% if you reach the peak of your processors limit.
Bump, are there no other insights on this? Am I like, the only one who undervolted his/her note?

I want to run 1700mhz as permanent and also wanted to undervolt but i wasnt sure how much by and what the risks are. Reason being is my phone gets hot with heavy usage running at 1400mhz so didnt want to go to 1700. I'll watch this thread with interest

I'm running 500-1700mhz.
Indeed it does get hot at 1700mhz, when I'm playing games but I've only at most played for 4 hours straight.
For what reason would you want to run 1700mhz-1700mhz?

No sorry i meant running it at 1700 max, leaving it stock for the min. I just wanted to know how much i can safely undervolt 1700 by.
I actually have a question. I undervolted my note with SetCPU and I read that Tegrak Overclock Ultimate should be used as well together with SetCPU.
What does Tegrak Overclock do? GPU settings?
Would like to learn that part if anyone has any info.

I undervolted mine by about 100mah. I think I can tone it down by about 25mah more but I'm having a hard time getting it to stabilize.
1350 for my device is completely safe though.
Though, all processors are different. Yours could be better than mine and can withstand more UV-ing.
Goodluck!

It's basically the same with SetCPU aside from its voltages.
I do not know if it should be used with SetCPU with the note because from what I've researched. It's only a common practice with SGSII.
Tried setting 100 and 200 mhz to 825. Crashed my phone twice in one day using it, gonna revert back to 875

[Q] Phone getting horror after 1,6ghz

So I managed to overclock the phone to the max 2,1ghz . But the things that scare are the following: I make it 1,7ghz or 1,6ghz , I do antutu benchmark and I get 4500+ points . Then at 2,1ghz I do the benchmark again but I get 2500 . How is that possible and what is the explanation ? I tried making both min and max freq at 2,1 . I tried with min at 100,200,400 but the same happens. 1,7 is pretty good but 2,1 is lame. I have to tweak the governors ? I tried multiple combinations too, Ondemand,Interactive most that are in devil kernel + Sio,CFQ,Zen. If someone can tell me how is it possible for 2,1 ghz to be slower than 1,6/7 i will be very thankful.
The processor is more prone to errors at higher clock speed? Error correction skews things down? Mebbe. . .

Im goiing to sound old here...
Its like having an old LP Record you know, one of those black round Disc shaped things that was used to play music.
They had little grooves on them that if you played it fast enough they would skip over the lines and the songs would jump
Thats like the OC the higher you go the system cant handle it... also the battery will drain faster and will heat up hotter
Hope that helps

also check the 2d and 3d score... the higher you go with overclock, the lower will be your 2d and 3d score, maybe because of the higher voltage for the cpu the gpu doesn't have enough power to work properly

normally, cpu score will increase while other aspect decrease when ur OC as u only OC ur CPU, not RAM or SD speed.

avoiding thermal throttling?

When i play games like moderncombat5 i have 60fps but after a while the frames drop in some scenes where it didnt 3-5 minutes ago. When i check the cpu/gpu i can see that it throttles and causes these framedrops. But the phone doesnt get hot. Since it isnt possible to mess with thermal values at the moment. I wonder if there are some optimal cpu/gpu clocks where it will not throttle and performance will stay the same all time regardless of how much you stress the cpu/gpu. Because i'd rather have a underclocked cpu gpu than having thermal throttling while stressing the phone. On oneplus3 i didnt have this much thermal throttling playing mc5. I also feel the thermal throttling throttles way to early.
And yes i tried almost all kernels/roms out there it was a better experience on the op3
Thanks!
All CPUs have slight variations, some may be slightly more efficient than others of the same model. To get the best performance, you're going to have to underclock and test on your own phone bit by bit.

I dont remember. But it was hard to find. Anyways i found out that the cpu allways throttles down to little 1209 mhz and big 1440 mhz. When gpu is running on max clock. Will make further investigations now to find perfect cpu & gpu freq.
It seems regardless of what cpu profile / governor you use and regardless if the phone is charging or not. The cpu will allways throttle down to 1209 little and 1440 big. And the gpu also throttles but i can't monitor the exact values currently. This throttling even happens when gpu is running on min freq. And even when you set big or little cluster to min freq.
Im pretty sure the thermal throttling of the oneplus3 is broken. Because:
Thermal throttling should be decided by many factors. (General soc heat generated by gpu/cpu/and ram) also the system should be aware by the values and should handle it intelligently.)
It seems there is only one heatsensor used to throttle all at once and the throttling stops at 1209mhz little and 1440mhz big. If the temperature still rises the phone simply doesnt give a f*** why i think there isnt even a point of using this stock throttling method. And no its not accurate. And no its not usefull because, it throttles regardless what heat the phone has. Because it doesnt react to soc heat. It reacts to one of the components and throttles everything. Why it can't check the other temparatures aswell and throttle other components diffrently if even needed at all.
Issue: lets say little or big cluster is overheating because the cpu load is very high on it. (And no you wont see this throttling by simply running perf gov. It needs load/ working tasks on it, means you gotta play some heavy 3d games)
The thermal throttling just brakes down both clusters including the gpu. Was the big cluster or the gpu running cool? The thermal throttling doesn't give a f***. Could the loads/tasks been shared with or pushed to the big cluster. Thermal values dont care. Could some rly simple sort of hotplug turn the overhating little cluster off to let the big cluster do the rest before it rather throttles everything on the f... phone . -nope - Its annoying. Rly just try it out yourself. I really hope to see some improvements by oneplus. And no the phone is not bad at all. It's just some things are not optimized yet. Like touch latency which is worse than on galaxy s3 but i don't mind it just giving you an example so you can imagine how bad the thermal throttling must be.
Allways remember setting the cpu clock values so low that they dont throttle anymore doesnt mean gpu will throttle less often. All compenents will throttle without comparing other compents clock rate and heat.
My question: is the thermal throttling decided by the soc itself or are there different thermal throttling values on each phone brand using sd821?
And is it possible to port these values from lets say pixel phone?
I'm on cm13 and its kernel default is a bit lower than stock. I had the screen on full brightness and was charging the battery so temps above 100°. I played dead trigger 2 on highest settings on a level with lots of special effects and weapons with lots of splatter. Got throttled when the temp hit 103° everytime. I was running performance on cpu and gpu and i tested it without charging and still get throttled.

Im using laos 14.1 with latest ex kernel.
As is said thermal values are broken. Its not right to throttle down to same speed if charger is plugged as battery heat is higher and soc heat should be higher too. So i think it also throttles unnecesserily low without the charger being plugged.
Did any one find a solution to fix this?
Up up up
years of tired because of this ****ting throttling issue
Well do this at your own risk, go to system/vendor/bin and cut the file named "thermal-engine" to other directories in your sd card. This will completely disable thermal throttling. Perfect for gaming.?
Up up!!! This issues persists to me.. i even put my oneplus 3t in front of 8" fan for every gaming. Is there anyway to maintain the cpu frequency at higher rate during thermal throttling? I don't want to totally disable the thermal throttling... Seems unsafe... Enlighten me if you would
I think its time for gamer's to switch to a gaming oriented phone to avoid this thermal throttling and im looking forward to buy Black Shark which is Xiaomi backed gaming phone with custom rom (not miui) something different and that too is gaming focused hopefully it will be available globally soon ! :fingers-crossed:

There is no risk if you disable thermal throttling, the CPU will shut itself down if its temperature reaches 100°C

There's nothing you can do about the throtting, OP3T throttles @60°C tbh in just 10 mins of game play it starts throtting
You have 2 options here
1. Either disable thermal engine as suggested by someone above ( it basically boils your device forget about gaming, temps touchs to 98°C if msm thermal is disabled and around 60 to 75°c it msm thermal is enabled it's seriously hot to touch and high chances of damaging internals
2. Underclock the big cluster to 1209MHz or 1286MHz I tested both, while gaming (2 hrs of pubg @ medium settings) temp's are around 53 to 55°c and never reached 60°c no throtting ( but you know what, games still lag or you will get low fps due to lack of power Lol I'm sorry that's true there nothing you can do about it try playing games in air conditioned room or just buy gaming Phone like Razer they have good heat dissipation, you should not forget the fact that our device is 2 years old. Tbh on a 2 year old phones even optimized games too use lot of processing power which lead more heat. More heat = throttle

can anyone post "cpu throttling test" results for k20 pro?

app is available on playstore named "cpu throttling test", you need to keep the device idle atleast for 5-10mins before starting the test, run the test in foreground for 10 mins, dont use the phone while the test is going on. Also how are the thermals like whe playing pubgm on extreme fps on this device?

Big core clocked down after 2mins, then after 4:30 all cores started downclocking
This is the results I've got

Don't know how accurate it is though

Hahaha...? With Malakas Kernel I have score around 160,000 GIPS after 15 minutes and with unthermal module I have score around 190,000 GIPS with my Pocophone F1 after the same time. So we certainly need custom Kernels for these new phones...

Oh very nice, even after 10 minutes barely any throttling!
Did you let it run with room temperature?

remember to take the results with a grain of salt. judging from the reviews it's not always accurate. don't remember the exact weather conditions but i wasn't in a sauna or anything. probably was around 25°C
You haven't seen my Mi 5s which has stock Rom. It throttles by nearly 50% of max speed after ~4 minutes of use and even disables one of the two high performance cores. In other words, games start to lag after 4-5 minutes.
So I'm happy to see that this doesn't happen here
Hey guys, can someone please direct me to a resource on "unthermal module" for Pocophone? Is it a kernel that allows modification of the termal throttling values?
Thanks a lot!
I did 2 tests, one with Game Turbo On and the other Off.
It throttled when Game Turbo was Off.

For pocophone? You should post in poco thread instead then.
Lineage OS, can't remember if stock or immensity, probably the latter, thermal controller set to benchmark.

Did it again, with Game Turbo On.
Those brown shiny strips on my phone cover are copper tapes. Got them off Lazada / Shoppee for around RM10. i.e. USD 3.
I think they could help distribute heat on the back of the phone over a larger area.

It shows throttling so how come you're saying it helps? Or did you post a wrong screenshot?

It still throttles, but not that badly as before. You can compare my Min score with the other users.
Meanwhile could you also run the same test and post your Min Max Average scores? Would be nice if there's more data for everyone to benchmark against
