Hello,
I have M4 Aqua E2303, with newest firmware .167, unlocked BL and root.
I checked, that phone have better performance in max. frequencions (1.1 and 1.5 GHz), in games like Asphalt8, but when goes bit hot (65 deggress C) it will drop to 800MHz and 1.1 GHz, and games are lagging.
I mean phone or system managing automatically cpu clock depends on temperature, its any way to disable it? Or change limit?(maybe clock down in 80 deggress)
And what is CPU limit temperature in smartphones? In computers is (i mean) 90 degress, no?
Hey, I'd love to know it all as well Hoping for some pros to dive into our systems

i was messing aroud with voltage control and cpu spy and i noticed that the cpu speed was only topping out at like 1ghz these phones come with dual core 1.5 ghz correct? mine has never seen that high of a speed is there a reason or am i missing something? on my s2 it had a 1.2 dual core cpu i believe and it said how long each speed had seen action and i even bumped it up to like 1.4. im nervous to mess around with the speed if its already 1.5 i was just gonna set it to like 1.6 or something.but it seems mine is running each core at just 1ghz can anyone lend me some light on this.
You have Power Saving ON , that limits max cpu speed.
ahh thank you so much another question on spu spy it says unused cpu stats im guessing is 1.1 and 1.2 is there a reason they are unused? also just a guess but looks like i cant go any higher than 1.5 with voltage control? is there another app that lets me bump it up to like 1.6? or 1.7?
Don't worry about it , cpuspy doesn't have full history of your cpu activity, cpu clocks up and down depending on load.
CpuSpy is not very reliable from my experience.
You need to flash a different kernel that will allow you to over clock the cpu. Voltage control will allow you to do this but you need a kernel that will let you over clock first.

ok thanks.
after waiting impatiently for the arrival of your op2 , many are disappointed with the low battery standby....specially if you are using LTE.
issues :
1) even having such a large battery, getting poor battery life.
2) even if the phone is idle, battery drains :crying:
so after having it for almost 2 weeks, i have learned most of the cpu tuner and battery saving apps wont work with op2, its not because of software, basically snapdragon 810's big little architecture is new and apps in the market are not compatible with this octacore new chipset.
and because of very less manufacturers are using this SOC as we now know why... and they were right... it heats up a lot!!! so app developers have not concentrated an specific app for this SOC.
so after lots of mix and matches, finally have come up with a stable solution as follows :
a) your phone should be rooted.
b) install 3c cpu manager from playstore.
c) open minimum 6 apps in background maximum the better.
( remember if no apps are running in background then cpu manager will show only maximum 1.555 ghz. max frequency and 384 mhz low frequency single setup only and big little architecture dual setup wont be shown ie: 810 has 4 cores running @ 1.555 ghz max and other 4 cores @ 1.76 ghz max. and both setups at 384 mhz minimum. )
d) open cpu manager, there should be 2 different setups, if not then open more apps in background, simply change the governor to ON-DEMAND, from interactive and set it on and reboot, as i have noticed with interactive governor even during standby, processor does not stays idle at lower frequencies.
after changing the governor, i have noticed that during standby cpu frequencies are in idle or at the lowest. which highly improvises the battery standby life and haven't noticed any performance degradation.
you can even limit the higher cores frequencies from 1.76 ghz to 1.55 ghz... improving up-to some limit of over heating issues and better standby time.
these are just the findings i discovered with my phone, so don't blame me if anything goes wrong, do it at your own risk.

This has nothing to do with apps, just poor drivers on the kernel side, scheduler isn't properly coded for this SoC, and the fact that there is no dynamic hotplugging options available without causing the phone to reboot under certain circumstances doesn't benefit us any. Check out some of the custom kernels, as they may increase your idle battery life, on my own kernel I saw .5% drain per hour max. For reference I saw about 20 hours idle and sitting at 89% on my kernel.

i really appreciate your findings with the kernel, but my post is intended for people like me who does not wants to mess up with a stock kernel, so that future OTA updates can be patched without much hassle.
as you see, oxygen os is quite new and incomplete when compared with other's have to offer. so i expect lots of future updates immediately by the OP to improve and stabilize the OS.
I am giving snapdragon battery guru a try, it's for Qualcomm processors. But I'm not very experienced in this stuff. I think it has helped but if someone with more experience wants to give it a try. Maybe they can shed some new light on this subject.
This is the result with on-demand governor settings when phone is idle. with stock kernel and stock frequencies.
Ondemand has always been my fvorite for all past phones. in op2 however it always reverts back to original after interactive. the best battery saver for any phone is swithching to 4.4.2. Azimg batteru life. unfortunately notpossble with op2

Being rooted alone will prevent OTA updates. You have to flash the full stock ROM when there's an update anyway which would overwrite the kernel.
Hey, I saw that all CPUs are currently locked down to 1593mhz. Our chip should have 2x1.5ghz for general use and 2x2.1ghz for high performance tasks.
But in stock as in custom Roms, I see all CPUs locked down, max freq 1593mhz and no control over queue processing, either from hotplug or CPU front. Is there something I missed? Or LG just lied to us?
I know from thermal point of view that our device would not be able to sustain 2.1ghz for a long time, but if the frequency is not even available, it is a serious matter... +500mhz is not something to overlook!
If thats true, thatd be a heartbreaking, the first thing I look to before choosing a device, is clock speed
Unlock the game optimization
I checked on cpu-z and frequencies. With optimization on, it won't go over 1,5 ghz but with that option off it is easily jumping to maximum clock speed (faster battery drain). Stock rom, don't know about custom roms.

You mean game optimization in settings/battery? I think we do not have that option in custom ROMs (I am currently trying Aicp 12.1) and never changed it in stock. I will try going back to stock to disable that option and see if the frequency table changes... If it does, it will be a pre-requisite before flashing custom ROMs in our device. Still, it is something the kernel should handle.
I would underclock the device on my own, as I did with my good old G2, but not having the option for the CPUs to scale as intended is not cool...
Well, frequency table shows no change with stock, but somehow, CPUs 3 and 4 scale up to 2150mhz now.
I guess LG did not cheat in the strict sense of the word, but just does not want us to have control over our devices...

So... I was freaked out after reading this thread, so i rushed to check using cpu Z and it turned out that mine is clocked at 2.15, so i don't know what is wrong u
The Snapdragon 820 inside the LG G5 has a quad-core processor which has 2 cores clocked at 2.15 GHz and two other cores clocked at 1.6 GHz (1593 MHz), it's the way the manufacturer (Qualcomm) decided the processor to be, the LG G5 is not underclocked. Some users may get different results in applications like CPU-Z or AnTuTu depending on which core the application is based on.

The frequency table shown by kernel adiutor (or any kernel tweaking software) shows ranges 307-1593 for all processors.
I know the hardware behind, my first though was that LG underclocked it. Now I see the phone just hides its behavior and does not show the real table (or the available software is not able to see it).
We will need additional kernel development in order to effectively control the core speeds in our devices.
Case closed, thank you for the responses.

old versions of kernel auditor are buggy with the g5, they see it as a single quad core instead of big/little dual 2 cores. You need the newest kernel auditor.
Hi Guys,
Little question. Have somebody experience how much you can underclocking the CPU?
I asking because I want to save battery and I don't need the 2,5 ghz in my daily use.
But I heard that phone doesn't wake up if you I set the CPU frequency too low.
I am using Carbon Rom 5.1 and have root access.
PS: I have testing a little bit. My frequencies are working (using the App CPU Tuner and the recommended minimum frequency seems to be 300mhz. So I take this frequenz for my minimum).
PPS: So the thread can be deleted
A great way to reduce heat generated on the xperia 1 iii/5 iii also gain bit more battery life.
There was a debate on why the snapdragon 888 heats up and the 2 reasons most told was ''Samsung's manufacturing process'' and that the "GPU was overclocked to 800+ Mhz to excel in benchmark"
I reduced the GPU freq to 491 Mhz, I had top temp 45 Celsius, before it went past 50 Celsius . So in the end reduced a bit of CPU and GPU and got good battery life and way less hot.
First root phone.
Then install
3c cpu manager - Android Apps on Google Play
Enjoy millions of the latest Android apps, games, music, movies, TV, books, magazines & more. Anytime, anywhere, across your devices.
play.google.com
Any settings from this application is temporary, as you restart the phone the frequency are back to default, only change maximum freq nothing else don't change the governors.
My settings:
CPU 1: Max freq = 998 Mhz
CPU 2: Max Freq = 1.2 Mhz
CPU 3: Max Freq = 1.3 Mhz
GPU : Max Freq = 419 Mhz
Try and post the experience and if any improvement (Mention with region model numbers)
:-Since rooted might want to try call recording , great app. Since native sony doesn't support call recording in many regions.

Tried your settings but after reboot it doesn't stick it reverts back to original settings

Yes it wont stick, untill you flash modified kernel it doesn't stick but if you dont reboot it wont go. Also after setting the frequency, wait for the phone to sleep once then temperature stays to a max and for me the battery life increased, without any performance degrade.
Yeah the issue is there is no modified kernel out there for our device. Kirisakura kernel does not fully support our xperia 1 iii. Sony haven't released their source code.
Try the application and if you dont like to keep the application you can remove it, still it keeps the frequency you set, till you restart the device. Main for heating up in phone is the GPU, as per what i learned, reducing its frequency itself , reduced heat a lot. Try and let know your SOT and heat temperature avg.
Yeah i have EXkernel manager it indeed lessen the heat specially when gaming.
Kirisakura kernel supports our device now..
