Hey, how do u think what is the max cpu temp for galaxy s2? I oc it to 1,4 / 1,5 Ghz, and i will try it on Modern Combat 4. Tried few benchmarks and temp is rising quite fast (23-31 Celsius Degrees). Now im going to start the game and i will spy the cpu temp. So max SAFE temp? Anyone could tell me?

Hi all, running lite'ning rom 1.4 and just played order and chaos for 5 minutes and the phone became too hot to touch! Surely this shouldn't be right, i mean what the hell! Anyone else have this?

Actually yes,many people have this.It's the CPU overheating.Beware,it doesn't get hotter than other CPUs on the market,but heat disipation on the GS2 is minimal as the phone is so thin.
The only thing you can try is lowering the CPU clock to 1000Mhz or even 800Mhz when gaming.You can even boost your GPU to 400Mhz up from 267Mhz and don't overheat then.There will also be no performance hit as games run mainly on the GPU and two cores running at 1GHz are more than enough to handle the background.
I havent noticed the phone getting super hot as some people have noted. I do notice that it does get a lot hotter if its plugged in and charging while playing a game. Are you by chance charging while playing? If so, I'd try and play while not charging to see if it gets really hot still.
No this isnt while charging and it literally was 5 minutes of playing! How do I change the cpu and gpu speeds safetly?
it also depends on the game itself, many of them are just poorly programmed
to your question: setcpu is the app.

I dont have an SGS2 yet but your statement has a total flaw, if games mainly use the GPU then there should be zero need to underclock the CPU.

Have you ever seen anything running on the GPU ONLY?What I mean is that the GPU processes the graphics,which are important when playing a game.The CPU takes on other tasks,like opponent's AI(artificial intelligence),background and foreground code running and many other things.Sound maybe?All these things keep the CPU running at 100% for no reason.Lower the clock and voila!
Check first before you try to say I'm wrong next time.I don't usually say bullsh!t with such things.
I overclocked my s2 to 1.6ghz and when i play 3d high graphics games the temperature goes around 40c to 48c is this normal it happens when i run at 1.2ghz as well just the phone fells less warm then when i do it on 1.6ghz what is the normal running temperature on a galaxy s2 im mostly running on 29 Celsius on idle this is battery temperatures
Yes it is normal, say thank you to Samsuck .
Ofc at 1.6 the problem is probably (at least it make sense) a bit more compared to 1.2.
Hey.
I rooted my Evo 3D GSM.
I have LeeDrOiD newest ROM and LeeDrOiD Kernel.
With this rom CPU is stock in 1.5ghz and the CPU temperature after Six Guns playing like 10 minutes is 45C. Is is normal?
I want to OC it to 1.72ghz but dunno about temperatures. Should I risk it?
The max is 1.92Ghz but i think my CPU will just set on fire.
But the real question is what is the normal temperature for this CPU?
Is 45C after 10 min of Six Gun gaming or NeoCore benchmark okay?
I dont know the norm but will OK up to 60c
THISIS50.com if its hot its here
I just wanted to know if its normal for a galaxy s iii to turn off 2 cpu cores when it gets "hot"?
Or when playing games like n.o.v.a 3
CPU throttling is possible, yes, but I don't think it disables cores. From what I can tell, it clocks down the cpu.

Im running Perfmon while running a game 2 see my cpu usage, after some time the phone gets hot and 2 cpu cores turn off.
Hi,
The new games started to demand more cpu and games like Modern Combat 4 lags as hell when cpu is 800 mhz, when it is 1.2 ghz the game is smooth. I am experiencing this problem on a few more games.
I installed an app that shows cpu temp, when cpu reaches 65 celcius, it downclocks to 800 mhz, when it becames 60 celcius, it becomes 1.2 ghz again, and this problem makes major lags. The problem is the phone reached 65 celcius not more than 1 minute and impossible to play without lag. Undervolting is not a solution and my gpu is at stock speed and voltages.
Is there any solution to lock it to 1.2 ghz. Even I set the cpu to performance governor or set the min scaling speed to 1.2 ghz, it still downclocks to 800 mhz. I think increasing the throttling threshold to 80 celcius or sth should solve the situation.
Use an app like setcpu(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mhuang.overclocking) you need root but you can just set up a profile that if modern combat 4 is running then min CPU=1200 and max= 1200

Thank you, but the phone is stubborn about downclocking to 800 mhz. If the phone reaches 65 celcius, there is no way (that I found) to prevent downclocking to 800 mhz.
