While I was tweaking my S6 i tried an app known as Faux Clock which I used on my nexus 5 previously!
There is a setting in the app for battery throttling which proved to be amazing and drastically reduced the charging heat!
I thought it would be worth sharing it!
The app is actually a paid app so i cannot attach the apk but i guess it would be pretty easy to find the apk
SO here are the instructions:
-install faux clock
-battery controls>enable battery throttle
Here is the playstore link:

note-the new name is faux123

Whatever you do don't use "power save"
Phone won't wake in that mode.

I just set it as 100-1200 interactive. Then set a profile when the screens off 100-600 conservative.
As long as the profile is set from 200mhz - (200-1200mhz) the phone won't shut off and you won't have to remove the battery I had this issue on my phone....

That's because you had it set on "ondemand" I had the same exact issue for a long time before I figured out that was the problem. It has something to do with the kernel doesn't support it right with setcpu or something. I read it somewhere on this forum. I've had it set at 100 min for the last 3-4 weeks and it's never not turned on (as long as it ISN'T set for ondemand).
I'll bump this thread to ask a question.
Around the time I installed SetCPU, I noticed a HUGE drop in battery life. To be honest, I'm not sure if SetCPU is the problem, or if I changed something else on the phone and that's the source of my problem. Anyone know anything that I could have changed unknowingly that caused my battery life to suck so hard.
Don't use set cpu if you can avoid it. Sre sets you to 1.2 ghz and unhelpful supplies a script if you are comfortable doing that.
Limiting speed with set cpu had little positive influence. As long as the scalling is working the cpu should idle with the screen off any how. The only situation I would change the clock is during an overheat condition but I'm running without set cpu all together.
If I'm interpreting unhelpful right the next kernel will make use of user space in set cpu and allow many new things including under voltage to save battery and the creation of custom clocks not written into the kernel so you aren't bound to his preferences.

Where can you do that at? Is that where you make your own cpu speeds?
Use NSTools in any ICS ROM with Icy Glitch kernel.

I OC my n7 to 1.5 and 51mhz and when I play games like mc4 the CPU gets to 70 are higher is that bad or good please help me.

Yes, it is really bad
As long as you don't push it behind 80°C you should be fine. But as always with silicon, the cooler the better longivity.

It never hits 80 only 70-75 and are you sure this is bad? And what should I OC it to?

K I put it at 1.5 and 204mhz is it still bad ?
The effects of heat are cumulative. Same thing for temperature cycling on material work-effects (e.g. fracture mechanics)
That means that a lower temperature for an extremely long time can be worse than a high temperature for a short time. There is no magic "you are safe below this temperature" assurance that can be handed out.
If you use your device hard, you will wear it out sooner - on average. (What an individual device will experience can not be predicted in advance.)

So what is the best Overclock settings for the motley kernel and what is the safe zone for my CPU while gaming or browsing or YouTube?

Try it and find out.
What is this?? Read the kernel thread. Why would you install a kernel without knowing anything about it?
I read everything about it.... I just need some good oc settings so it won't hit 70 while gaming or is it normal to get that high while playing intensive games?

There is nothing magical about 70C.
For long-duration loads (say gaming for several hours straight), the CPU temperature rise will be a certain temperature rise above ambient for that load condition - so somebody gaming outdoors in the tropics will experience a higher CPU temp than someone indoors in air conditioning.
My tablet (stock rooted) idles at about 38-40C with the screen on in a room at 20C (68F). Call that a 20C rise above ambient for an "idle, screen-on" condition.
I have coded a threaded native program meant to saturate each CPU core as well as the memory bus (& tweaked it for max temperature rise); when running it simultaneously with a long-lived graphics benchmark, I have seen peak cpu temps of 85C. This corresponds to a 65C rise over ambient. This is a ridiculous load, though.
As mentioned elsewhere, the stock kernel has thermal protection mechanisms: a rate throttle at 95C and an emergency shutdown at 100C. With that (above) ridiculous load, I couldn't get there with 4 cores @ 1.2 GHz. It is possible that by running the same load for many hours continuously (or inside a hot car) it might hit that limit though.
But I don't think that the existence of an emergency shut-off means that below that temperature means "your device won't experience long-term degradation" - more likely that emergency shutdown is there to prevent somebody's defective tablet from burning down a house. Asus/Google are much more concerned about tort lawyers and product liability lawsuits than they are about the longevity of somebody's stupid $200 tablet... that has an invalidated warranty.
If you are gaming for an hour or so at a time, 70 or 75C is probably not going to cause an immediate hardware failure.
Your tablet is made out of a bunch of materials that are subject to a variety of failure mechanisms. Every one of those mechanisms proceed at a faster rate at higher temperatures. (Remember the old rule of thumb "reaction rates double for every 10C rise in temperature"?)
So, enjoy your tablet for gaming. But don't leave the performance governor enabled all the time: your device will spend more time over the course of its life in an idle condition than actually doing anything for you - there is no point in you cooking it slowly to death while it does nothing useful for you.
cheers
You're right but I get 70c in a matter of minutes I think I'm just gonna retire from oc and stick with the stock kernel

it is better it in1.3 and min 200 (for battery saving) but 1.2 is well, why dont overclock gpu a bit, or use some tweaks or a new kernel

You can do it with M-kernel and trickster mod

I can't stress enough the importance of voltages to temps. On stock Trinity kernel I ran 1.6ghz at "default" voltages (can't remember how much, something like 1.2v) and hit temps of 95c.
I dropped it down to 1.125v and my temps went down to a max of 75c and usually much cooler.
Anyways, you'd be surprised just how much the voltage affects the temps.
Good luck guys!
I'm looking for app to look at CPU and battery temperatures while playing game. App can be not free, no difference for me.
CPU temp is the important one, this one shows that, as well as CPU, GPU and thermal control, OOM killer, bus mod and some other stuff that could work if we get some good kernels: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tegraoverclock

That's pretty hard too say....I guess a rom that has no android os/system drain bugs.
It depends very much on the installed apps, if they spawn any background processes which constantly poll some things....
The govenor settings....if it scales to a higher cpu state very fast etc...
Personally i use SlimBean, but you can do some optimizations on any rom.
If you want good battery life I suggest to use greenify to hibernate apps with the unwanted background processes. Enable deepsleep and power done bluetooth in semaphore manager. Undervolt the 100mhz step. Force 2g networks. Use a black theme because the amoled display need less energy for dark themes. Use low autobrightness settings and enable data connection only on demand.
You can disable autopolling of emails etc...remove widgets from the homescreen...
You will probably get about two days with medium usage then.
So, I've looking at squeezing more juice out of my battery lately. One of the things I was trying was switching to Conservative governor. I really don't mind lag, after all, while trying to get the most battery life a little lag is expected if not inevitable. But when using SetCPU to try to change the sampling rate it won't allow me to change it below 200000. Has anyone found a method to change it or does any one have any other ideas???

Yeah, I know you can use rom toolbox, but can you change the sampling rate to anything less than 200000 on Conservative?
So you mean to tell me that everyone in this forum claiming to get over 24 hours of battery life has not touched any of the cpu settings????? I find that hard to believe. Someone must have some info on this.

Not really that hard... My phone with bluetooth on, no wifi, and using only LTE throughout the day until I got home with 10% left.
Stock ROM
Rooted
xPosed
That's it.
