[Q] disable cpu thermal throttling - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i make a simple question:
how do i disable the thermal throttling policy?
i have some kind of failure hw sf on my phone and even with cpu temp below 30C my phone cut off 50% of cpu frequency.
no matter what it runs at 501 mhz even if i set performance governor, even with cpufreq max and min set to 1000 mhz.
but yes it can scale down below 501 mhz, it can run all the frequencies i give it.
so must be this policy activated somehow permanently while is set in kernel to activate when cpu temp is above 90C...
how can i turn off?
a module would be useful? i need a custom kernel? i can just disable with some commands? maybe in init?

none of the devs in this section knows what i'm talking about or none of the devs reads this section?

SetCPU x10 mini Settings

Could anyone please tell me the settings and profiles that will give my x10 mini the best battery save? thanks
actually there is already a preset for that ..the "powersave" one..
Easy, just put both bars in 122880MHz..
Your phone are going to be rrrrreeeaaaallllyyy slow, but you save lots of milliamps
Use ondemand only. And set min to 122 and max to 600.
I use a profile when screen is off that set min to 128 and max to 320, ondemand too.
Step 1: Once the app has downloaded from the market open it.
Step 2: Hit auto recommend speeds on the first boot up of the app.
Step 3: Click the profile tab at the top.
Step 4: Hit Add Profile.
Step 5: The profile button selects what happens for the CPU to under clock or over clock. The max is the max the CPU will reach; the min is the minimum the CPU will reach.
Step 6: Profile: Screen off. Max: set to minimum. Min: set to minimum. Scaling: set to Conservative. Priority: set to 100. Press okay, and hit Enable.

Has anyone had problems with random freezes and reboots with SetCPU installed? I've had a couple random reboots, so for now I've uninstalled SetCPU to see if the problem goes away. I also have Advanced Task Killer installed but it wasn't set to kill tasks automatically.

Setting SetCPU like that is not very smart. For example, You have Your screen off, someone is calling You, what happens? You get the call ringer after few seconds (sometimes even 10-15!). Reminds of old Symbian versions? But just this. Next example - You have Your screen off, and You receive sms. What happens if You are using Handcent, and have to go to the app manually after phone wakes up? It takes ages... But if You have more than 1000 massages in Your inbox, and a new one come, and You get it after screen wakes up it can even lead to a reboot.
Lets add some random weird situations if You are listening to Your player while the screen is off... using some third party apps, etc...
Setting the minimum CPU for the screen off is not a good idea. Don't do that, or the phone will fail You in most unwanted cases.
so what are you guys using?
I am 122-600 on normal ondemand
and screen off on 122-256 ondemand
Anyone with better profiles?
just dont overclock!!!
why not? I see you are running 729/600.
WHY is your min 600?
Use smartass governor - auto profile, just upgrade to gingerbread.. best profile yet..
Set normal use 122Mhz-729Mhz 100% Priority
Set for charging: 122Mhz-245Mhz (or similar) - 100% Priority
Set for screen off 122-245 (or similar) - 100% Priority
^ this saved me battery when I used my phone for so much else besides calling and texting.
for good batter backup....set the minimum as 122Mhz and the max as 480 Mhz....anything above 748 and below 480 will get u into "restart & restore"...however, there is a overclock module allowing you to overclock to 825 Mhz (but dats juss fr "testin"...u'll lose battery like a freak and will get awfully hot readings)

Only a handful devices supports being clocked to 825Mhz but it's very dangerous.
I doubt you can raise the clock speed to 825Mhz without the phone freezing up.

Some have succeeded, but I doubt their phones lasted very long after that.
Just wondering, is the phones processor under the right side of the keyboard? cause after a few minutes @ 710Mhz, that area is hot. Since I switched to the smartass governor, it rarely is hot anymore (due to the fact it mostly spends time @ 245/320Mhz
Um... question?
Shouldn't the phone go into deep sleep when the screen is off with no cpu activity?
Also install cpu spy and see what the cpu is doing for how long.

1. The cpu does not make the most heat... it's the 3G radio.
2. Cpu should deep sleep automatically.
My OC prifile for mini pro:
Standard profile- 122 - 825mhz
If Battery < 15% then 122 - 600 "this gets rid of crashes due to low power OC"
Also.. i asked some of the developers that made the modules for overclocking and undervolting.
It's undervolting there is no upward voltage bump so it can't really nuke a cpu.
But you can nuke the power circuits if you use heavy internet on 3G and charge at the same time.
How can I put over 600 Mhz?
My SetCPU makes 600 Mhz the max. I want to put just on 700, but I can't. What is the problem?
@Felimenta97:
You don't have any overclock-enabler module installed/insmodded or if using any CM-based ROM, the corresponding setting is disabled.
I'm using smartass with 122-320 for screen off and ondemand with 320-729 for normal, no problems so far
The max MHz I could get was 729MHz, 748MHz worked but after some time the CPU got 'pegged' as said in the logcat
Tried the 825MHz setting that only caused a freeze and boot loop, forcing me to do some fast adb commands to get rid of the overclock

Using Tasker for CPU control?

I would like manually create settings for when my CPU is overclocked and underclocked and I was hoping to find some help with this. I want my phone to underclock to roughly 800mhz - 900mhz when the screen is off, battery is bellow 20% and when the phone is above a certain temperature and overclocked to 1.1ghz at all other times. How would I go about doing this? I am new to tasker and there doesn't seem to be an option for CPU controll. If someone could advise me how to do it, rather than just direct me somewhere I can download a profile, I would appreciate it.
I am using a HTC Desire with VJ's CM 10.1 rom (performance control is not in settings as of now, using daemon to overclock)

[Q] Android kernel:set cpu governor for all cores irrespective of their online status

I am stuck at the inability of kernel to allow a one point settting of scaling_governor for all cores. I tried with a for loop to echo, in each core's
cpufreq module, a scaling governor, but failed for offline cores as they have no cpufreq folder when they are offline. I tested cpu tuner app and it does the above said amazingly well. I would like to request anyone to help me in knowing
how to programatically set cpu governor to all cores irrespective of their online status?
thanking all.

MIUI 9 & 10 - VDD restriction turns on by itself and set the min. CPU freq. at 1.6GHz

MIUI 9 & 10 - VDD restriction turns on by itself and set the min. CPU freq. at 1.6GHz
Hi All,
May someone shed the light and tell me how come that even though I disable CPU VDD restriction (and it's disabled by default..) it just turns on "by itself"? If I change some governor parameter I observed that for instance I disconnect the charger then VDD restriction is turned on immediately and increased the min. CPU to 1.6GHz. I don't even understand this behavior anyway: VDD restriction's action (when it's turned on) should kick in when the CPU reaches a certain temperature (70°C afaik) and should "turn off" when temperature goes below a threashold (69°C afaik) and I thought that when it kicks in it throttles the CPU freq. so decreases the max and not increasing(?) the min(?), this is totally not what I expected from the VDD restriction kernel function..
I already tried to:
- disable perfd
- disable perfd then rewrite /data/system/perfd/default_values and restart perfd
- rename/delete /system/bin/perfd
..but the system still does the above explained behavior.
I'm out of ideas at the moment. Can someone point me to the right direction?
Everything is "stock vanilla" MIUI ROM with Magisk, tried a lot of MIUI ROMs actually (several ROM versions from global stable and developer, chinese stable and developer and forks like Xiaomi.EU, Mi-Globe..) and - at least on my phone - all ROMs were doing this..
Thank you!
Bump - anyone?

Question Rooted Pixel 6 CPU frequency control without userspace governor

So I recently rooted my Pixel 6 (Android 13) using Magisk and tried to control the CPU frequency, but it did not have userspace CPU governor. I tried to set scaling_setspeed in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ with no luck (kept popping up as <unsupported>).
Also tried setting scaling_max_freq and scaling_min_freq using the maximum frequency and scaling_governor as performance mode. While the CPU is idle, cpuinfo_cur_frequency says that the CPU is at max frequency, but when I run an application, the frequency would drop.
It was to my understanding that performance mode would keep the CPU at max frequency, but even then, the frequency would drop.
Is there a way to set and fix the frequency without adding userspace CPU governor through a custom kernel? Or does Android 12 still have the userspace governor? Then maybe I can rollback and control it that way.
