[Q] My note getting warm

Hello, Im new in Note, installed yesterday Slim Bean Rom and hydracorenirvana v7 OC kernel and I noticed that Note get warm, like 35-50 C while browsing internet or doing some low requerements stuff. I tried to low CPU to 1ghz but still the same... And while playing it jumps more then 50C, is that normal? I really dont want to burn it

Probably the media scanner is maxing the CPU, normal after installing a new ROM especially if you have a lot of files. Give it some time to settle down.

Dont forget the Hydracore is a maxed out performance kernel, designed for ultimate speed, so it will generate more heat doing basic things unlike the stock kernel.
and not to mention the massive power hungry screen and huge battery inside, its normal so dont worry about it. If it gets to the point where its too hot to touch, just remove the battery for 10mins and allow it to cool down.

Can I OC and UV GPU with hydracore kernel? I have S2 with dorimanx kernel , there is Stweaks app its very usefull when I can choose battery or performance profiles. and its auto OC and UV on that kernel. Can we get something on Note?

there are many apps that can do this, Tegrak, SetCPU etc, but be careful messing with voltages as it can prevent the phone from functioning.
You can use a basic app such as no-frills-CPU to adjust OC and governors.

Yes, I know setcpu, but I want OC / UV GPU not CPU. On my S2 via STweaks I can OC/UV also GPU.

Ok, now Im on jellybam woth "voldemort" kernel and on battery it looks little less warmer but when I charging and try to play games or browse it gets really hot, like ~55C . Is it normal and not damage my Note? Also I always use 1ghz cpu speed. with 1.4 or 1.6 ghz its little bit warmer

55 is ok. No issues

What is highest temp that it could be and its not bad for phone.

My record was 56 C. Do I win something

Overclocking Kernels for the TF701t

Hi, does anyone know of any kernels available for the tf701 so we can overclock/underclock the processor better? I still am kind of new to this forum. I want to do this for overall battery life improvement and also performance improvements as a bonus. thanks for your help!!

There are none currently.
Not sure the device really needs it either. It's very fast as it and would only generate more heat and worse battery on an already hot device.
Tweaking the kernel and rom are much better options (CROMi-X )

I essentially wanted to use SetCPU in order to dramatically underclock the processor during sleep and slightly underclock it while its screen is on (because who needs all this processing power really?). This could possibly stretch out my battery life by another day. Do you think that will be possible to do when I install a different ROM on the tablet? (like yours for example)

Ah ok - download trickster mod and set the min and max freq there. SetCPU is years old and won't work with our device

with the trickster mod, would I be able to set profiles for it when I do things like turn off the screen? thanks for the suggestion!!

Nope - it just sets the min and max.

I wonder why it gets hot though. I thought these are SoC's and aren't supposed to get hot. The tf101 didnt get hot at all. But if you overclocked it to 1.6 it started to get warm.

Does anyone know if this happens as regularly on cm11 or another aosp ROM? Also, what's a good max level to clock it at so I don't constantly worry about the heat issue?

What exactly are you worried about? You can't clock it past 1.9GHz anyway which while it might get toasty it won't fry an egg or anything.

[Q] Undervolting help

Hey I'm new to this undervolting thing. I believe I just undervolted by -25 globally using kernel auditor but my mV numbers in the boxes don't match the ones in this video(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8THaPMp2ao). For example my bottom box 1040mV but the video's is 1010mV. Can someone please tell me what I did wrong and how to fix it?

Not everyone's voltages are necessarily the same.

If the app doesnt tell you, Wipe data on the app and reboot. Stock voltages are applied every reboot, until the app applies custom.

find out what you devices bin number is, then youll know what voltage chart your device should use.

Do all custom kernels pay attention to the bin for voltages?

Hey I've been experimenting on my kernel mostly based off another youtube video and i've been getting systemui closes after I reboot. I know it is either lmt launcher or kernel auditor that has been causing it. Do you think kernel auditor is the culprit?
it has something to do with lmt . I figured it out.

as far as i know, yes.

Undervolting isn't going to do much of anything for long term battery life. CPU's are very minimal battery users for most day-to-day operations, so your actual battery life gains are going to be minimal, <5%, if you notice anything at all.

I'd say even less than 5%, more along the lines of less than 1%. but its decent for lowering temps slightly as well. me, I dont undervolt at all, yet see from 5.5-6.5 hours screen on.

Good workaround (Kernel/Firmware) against overheating?

Hello guys I got some huge problems here.
I recently switched from my Z2 to the Z3+ and actually like the phone but the overheating is insane and especially kills Pokemon Go through CPU throttling, which runs smoothly on my old Z2 .
So far I am on 253, cleaned it up and tried a self modified and the zach beta9 Kernel and and runs quite bad on both. Is heating a lesser issue of 224? I actually do not want to reflash the whole system to 224 just to find out it doesn't get better.
Also is there a way to undervolt/underclock? I can change settings in Kernel Aduitor but I have the feeling the phone doesn't really care.
Help much appreciated - thanks!

Try Zach beta 8 kernel. Limit max cpu frequency by kernel auditor.
Still it's only your Goodluck if your device cools down. It's a bitter truth about this model.

Do you have a clue whether 224 or 256 make a difference?
I will try beta8 and report back.

no there was no thermal improvements between these builds, dont flash your system back
but do underclock and tell us the results!
Im also affected by your exact problem

Try this kernel, seems promising. I haven't tried it since it doesnt have twrp.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...m5z-kernel-t3421630/post67813517#post67813517
Edit: Today I have flashed 256, haven't found any improvement. As per my experience 256 haven't brought any noticable change.

**** posted twice and dont know how to delete

Thank you for the replies!
Tested zach beta8, didn't help. Now I am testing http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/orig-development/kernel-om5z-kernel-t3421630/ as suggested and if that doesn't help much also with http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/kill-overheating-flash-zip-t3421782.
And Stamina Mode helps at least a bit.

Statusreport: It always runs bad. But best at the moment with root patched Stock Kernel (253) and that underclocking zip. Although I think that underclocking doesn't really help at all.

What are your temps? When does it start to throttle? Done any thermal-conf configuration to allow more heat?
---------- Post added at 21:03 ---------- Previous post was at 20:58 ----------
I know that @Trilliard has a very good and stable cpu governor where he has disabled two of the little and two of the big cores, this helps a lot if you underclock the remaining 4
Here are his files:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/dont-custom-kernels-want-to-avoid-idle-t3409647
UPDATE: Added my edited files used to apply CPU tweaks (cores down clocked to 0.9 and 1.2ghz, two core disabled, tweaked cpu governor, power and others mods) and these files located in etc folder. Replace them and set correct permissions then reboot.

Actually I didn't know about this combination - I will try it thanks!
Do you know about a thermal-conf? Actually never tried one. The phone gets hot indeed but I still think there might be some space before it actually melts.

Thats what i thought as well i have my own here, its based on another persos post, but i dont remember where...
Anyways, his camera mod worked, but cpu throttle was not tampered with, and it caused a very unbalanced throttling... Ok yay i can use the camera linger and fluently, but when i exit the camera app, i cant use the phone couse its runnig at 348 mhz...
So i i did some modifications to it cpu never get under 840 for little cores, so your phones menues end web browsing are always safe from performance drops.
I made it to be able to play Pokemon go, and achieved a lot better resault than without any changes.. still prefer playing on my shield tablet, but if i dont have it around when theres a lot od pokestops nearby, then this will work for me.
While playing Pokemon go it does not go over 80 degrees, but using snapshat it can get to 85, so dont use snap for to long
Let me know if it worked for you!

Im using stock kernel, may switch to another soon. Im using stock bcause of batterylife and idle power consumption
Im using the governor and cpu modifications in this post ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/dont-custom-kernels-want-to-avoid-idle-t3409647

Hmm. Still runs ****ty.
Can anyone give me a short guide how to edit thermal and governors?
According to my observations the phone gets hot and then cold. I think the throttle is more aggressive and needed and I want to make it less aggressive.

Update:
I made my own modifications to the thermal engine. It is pretty bad for battery I guess but I had a very good expierence playing Pokemon Go with it today. Yes the phone gets hot. Like it doesn't drop below 70°C while playing and regulary hits 80°C but it works good. No dark screen, no 0 CPUs downclocking. So far it's fine for me, maybe I get squeeze even more out of it.

Still working good for me. Not sure if I can really squeeze out more and as long as it works at the moment I do not have a good motivation to try anything else.
No idea about SoT. Always running around with a powerbank. Probably bad, it is not designed for good battery life.

Allright thanks i might try your conf if i cant get mine to work like I want

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?

Chinese Miui 10.3.11 8/128
Big core clocked down after 2mins, then after 4:30 all cores started downclocking

This is the results I've got

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...

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.

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 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
