Thermal Engine mod for Lgv20 Stock Oreo/Nougat (root only) - LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods

STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any damages caused to your phone. Use this mod at your own risk there is no warranty or guarantee.
I created these mods to help with the over heating issue on the Lgv20 and the Thermal throttling. I did not make any changes to the charging speed. When the screen is off the phone will fast charge. With screen on phone charges at 900 to 300 depending how hot your phone is.
All thermal mods updated on 5-12-22
You can just flash on top of older versions
Removed 50c it's just to low the phone would not run good.
Version notes
Lite v6.0 CPU & GPU max temps 60c
If the shell of the phone get's 42c then thermal throttle. Bring all core's down to 1036800 tell it reaches 40c. That's 104F. So if the phone wants to do an update when charging, the phone should not get over hot. Also thermal throttle if CPU or GPU get's over 62c bring down to 60c. The thermal mod is now well optimized, for extended battery life & performance. This may be the final version, it's good.
Balanced v7.0 CPU & GPU max temps 70c
If the shell of the phone get's 47c then thermal throttle. Bring all core's down to 1228800 tell it reaches 45c. That's 113F. So if the phone wants to do an update when charging, the phone should not get over hot. Also thermal throttle if CPU or GPU get's over 72c bring down to 70c. The thermal mod is now well optimized, for extended battery life & performance. This may be the final version, it's good.
Extreme v8.0 CPU & GPU max temps 80c
If the shell of the phone get's 52c then thermal throttle. Bring all core's down to 1401600 tell it reaches 50c. That's 122F. With this version the phone may get hotter than with lite and balanced. But you should have increased performance. Also thermal throttle if CPU or GPU get's over 82c bring down to 80c. The thermal mod is now well optimized, for extended battery life & performance. This may be the final version, it's good.
Requirements:
Lgv20
Root Access / twrp
Stock Oreo or Nougat
How to install.
Just flash in twrp.
This thermal mod only replaces two files.
/system/etc/thermal-engine-8996.conf
/system/etc/thermal-engine-default.conf
If you want to back them up first you can or just use the uninstaller. The thermal-engine-default.conf was not changed, it's still the default. That is just in case your phone get's over 130c, the phone will try it's best to cool it's self off, if it cant the phone will shutdown.

are these the modified config files that were already available or have you created 'new one's. Handy to have them in a flashable zip.

They are 100% original. Thank you I thought it would be handy to have a flashable file. I did quite a bit of research online and just combined every thing I learned.

I haven't changed mine myself. My device got very hot whilst charging when I tested a long time ago so I went back to stock. I'm been meaning to figure it out but never go around to it.

Yeah if you mess with the charging speed the phone will get hot. On my mods I didn't touch the charging speeds. They are still stock, I only changed the speed at witch the cpu and gpu will throttle down if phone gets above 80c.

ah okay interesting.
I seem to have a problem on my pie rom that when the battery is below 50% it throttles down. Not sure how to fix that one.

Yeah that sounds like a battery issue to me. Getting a new battery may help. It's because the battery cant push out the amount of amps that the phone needs to run at full speed. Same thing happens to my phone around 50% or so. But I am still running an old stock 2016 battery. I just don't trust the generic battery's in my phone. I think LG still sells new battery's for the lgv20 for around $39.99 on there web site.

As the battery voltage falls the current draw increases

Exactly. Nothing like a fresh battery to perk up a device.
As the battery voltage falls the current draw increases to the stepup voltage converter to provide the needed V+ for the device. The device wattage (V×A=W)requirement remains constant.
It's interesting that it throttles back like that.
It probably is designed to do that at a certain battery voltage.
Battery calibration might help the indicated %... but the end run time/throttle back time will likely remain the same.

Oh that fine so. I actually have loads of batteries, some new, some old LG ones. I must throw the bad ones out lol.

I just updated Thermal Throttling Fix LGv20 v5.0 It works better than the previous versions.

I just uploaded v5.1 and v5.2 Thermal Engine mod for Lgv20 Stock Oreo/Nougat

H990DS 8.0+ezV2020+v5.4 Thermal Mod+4.2 Speed Mod + 19 degree in the room
Result is very good.

no sorry only stock Lgv20 Android. Lineageos does not have all the required files to thermal throttle the cpu.

Just updated all the thermal mods 5-5-22

Updated the thermal mods 5-12-22

I am still working on the thermal mods, trying to dial in the perfect settings. Check back for updates.

New versions ready for download, I think I finally got it this time. There is a Lite, Balanced & Extreme version. Enjoy.

I just ran your latest debloat script (8.1), can I load this over top?

[Q] CPU Temperature overheat level?

Hey everyone...
So today while i was trying to download an app, my cpu temperature became 63C (145F).
I was wondering if this temp is even possible and what the temperature the phone is set to turn itself off at.
EDIT: Moto Atrix btw, tegra2 processor
I'm not sure about a mobile processor, but a desktop processor can well above 70, 80, or even 90 under heavy load.
63C sounds wayyy too high for a low voltage/power mobile cpu. Then again its hard to say, as the mobile chips are passively cooled.

I was able to achieve overheat at a balmy 131°... I was driving in my car, it was charging and running navigation/trapster/iheartradio... I also live in Florida.

thats your battery though, i am talking about processor.
I wopuld assume that this temperature is damaging to phone itself, i just wonder what the overheat level for the nvidia tegra2 is.
hmmm, still very intrigued. part of me wants to runn my phone as hot as it can till it over heats and reboots, and part of me is saying im a dumba** for even thinking of that, lol.
EDIT: just wanted to say im running greyblur, if that affects anything at all, lol.
Haha, I guess I really don't know much about mobile hardware then ^^

I probably know more for hardware than software, don't feel bad, lol
But, actually, overheat status isn't true overheat function. When there is a true overheat, the phone either turns off or reboots itself. When the battery becomes too hot, the processor ignores that in most cases, while if the processor itself gets hot, it shuts itself down.
Yay, my first true member post, not junior anymore!!!! hahaha
I am also getting these high tempuratures on my cpu and not my battery.
My idle tempurature lowest was 35C and averages 55C and my highest was 70C and averages 65C. I really need help on how to fix this. My battery temp is around 40C
I set up a SetCPU profile so that if the CPU temp reaches 60C, it will max out the processor at 750 Mhz. For me, it pretty much cools off instantly. You may want to set yours lower. It doesn't reach that level often.
I've started a thread early today regarding the atrix's heat issues. Soon as I started playing games on my Atrix I got pretty scared with the temperature I felt on the exterior, and more scared after using temp. monitor apps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1249757
The idea is to mod the phone to help dissipating heat. Besides undervolting with setcpu I guess there isnt much that can be done at software level to reduce the main chip's heat.
The ideas are still being formulated. I opened the thread so I could get some help and suggestion from other atrix owners, to have a good idea of what to do when I finally open my phone
If anyone wants to try it or have any ideas, please comment there!
WolfFX, your link has actual "...." in the URL and doesn't work.
Regarding maximum temperature before shutdown, I'm wondering if anyone has EVER seen their phone shut off due to high heat? Does it even happen? I'm not meaning reboot either, but actual shut down to cool off.

Yeah. Left the screen to never time up and setcpu to stress test. Left it on my bed covered by a pillow (accidents do happen, I'm quite forgetful and idiotic). Came back and the phone was in "emergency cool down mode"

Guys, I will repeat this just one more time. DO NOT let your CPU temperature get higher than 50C... Constant minor overheating causes long term damage to your phone, shortens it's life span.
One major overheating can toast your phone just like that.
These aren't desktop PCs, use common sense. Overclocking to higher than 15% doesn't come unpunished.
Also posted the same in the other operating temperature thread.
Did a bunch of looking around and after a while found some white papers with the following temperature ranges:
General operating temps of -40C to +85C.
Practical usage will start to drop off below -20C and above +70C.
This tells me that our safe operating range should be limited to the practical usage temperatures. Anything outside of these and there is a good chance you will see performance drop off fast, and also may suffer hardware lockups, etc.
Personally I will stick to +65C which is the rule of thumb I go by with my PC's under full load.
<edit> I would also add that while our phones are not desktops/laptops/workstations, the CPU's can all handle around the same temperatures in all devices. Materials used and manufacturing techniques are almost identical. The solder used has a melting point of around 180C - 190C, so there is no fear of melting the solder. The main difference is that phones do not have active cooling, so you will see much larger jumps and swings in temperature. This being the reason you cannot OC in the extreme ways you can with PC's.
i read a post somewhere that 75 degrees c was the max it should go to, anything higher is way too much
I read somewhere that if you overheat yer phone it eventually breaks. Pretty much it. Just don't let it out in the sun too long or anything silly. However, keep in mind that if you do break your phone, you can always donate it to XDA. I think they're looking for bricked and broken phones.

[Q] Does overclocking damage mobile?

Hi friends,
I wanted to ask that does overclocking damage the mobile processor and decrease its life in any way. I want to use a Megatron rom but i am afraid to do so, kindly help me out.
Another question i wanted to ask is how to check if my mobile is running baseband or new baseband.
I have LG Optimus One Android version 2.3.3 default rom.
Regards,
Pravin
If you installed GB via official update,then you have new baseband.
About overclocking:
Every processor support a max frequency.Mine supports about 710 mhz.But,I overclocked it to 806,put the phone on "set on boot" and it kept rebooting for 5+ times.However,this didn't affected my processor.I don't think that overclock can damage your phone in any way.Also,until 729 mHz you'll get the same battery performances as at 600 mHz.Just OC until 691 mhz first time and play smth for 5 minutes.If it doesn't reboot( also know as KP = kERNEL pANIC) , then go on until 710,729,748,etc.Until you get KP.After,select the last working value and enjoy.

I dont think the overclocking can damage the phone, in the worst case it can heat up the phone slightly (which i experienced on stock ROM using franco's kernal)
The worst thing that can happen is that the phone will heat up after 1-2 hours like galaxy s and s2 do in 10 mins...

Problems of Overclocking:
1.Decrease in battery life because we are increasing the voltage output.
2.Overclocking causes heating which can lead to damage to other hardware components and again damage to battery.
But since these effects are very minimal and are hardly noticeable(and in with most kernels, processor usage is controlled by good governors) in our phones there is no serious harm in overclocking and will only improve performance.

Heating is not that bad, unless you are a sick gamer or surfer...
Our device uses same voltage for 122-480 and 600-864, so the battery taken is not that bad...
Edit: the phone NEVER gets over 40°C unless there are 35° air temperature, you hold it very hard in your hand or it has a protection...

Once I broke my phone with KDZ and took it to Service Center...
When I got it back, they said that also motherboard was damaged. I tried to look like a fool and acted that I'm surprised.
I'm pretty sure this is because of OC. Don't use higher than 787mhz.
Edit: Oh, and before this problem, I got GPS lock in 1.5 minutes. Now it's in about 10 seconds.

Yeah thats why i said the effect is very minimal. And higher the processor usage obviously more the battery usage. So with kernels like the original lg one which does not have a very good governor(as far as i know) the processor tends to stay towards the max frequency range and hence higher voltage.
Yes,overclocking 'too much' can damage CPU and battery life.

Conservative is the best stock governor... it looks like interactive actually is much more battery saver than ondemand... which ALWAYS keeps at Max..(this is odd)
I love conservative, I am using it because it takes a minute to get Max performance, but then you have maximum performance... but when you do a short usage and keep minimum frequency at 122, there is a chance you will have no higher than 480...
Also, one thing I recommend is using maximum at 480 when idle and listening to music... phone tends to keep it at maximum always when awake and music in background... and 480 is smooth for small tasks... and really battery save!

OK lets put it this way..
Computers.. desktop for example.. are well known to be overclock..
CPU problems would be.. HEAT. it causes the processor to malfunction, reboots and worst to be cooked..
since are device is to small and 806mhz heats it up not much to burn.. its ok
but? it malfunction.
and overclocking SHORTENs your processor LIFE. that is true
Bad if too much
We are actually pushing the limits of our phone.
Too much of everything is bad..especially HEAT.
Beat the heat...
Battery drain is not a problem just as "vlt96" says.
It can decrease life of your mobile's processor as maufacturers claim.
729 Mhz or 748 Mhz should be sufficient for medium use.

My Rezound Extended Battery Results *26hrs Use*

Well since I love getting into technical results with this Rezound since I got it, I'm pretty much really late to the game with this phone. My Thunderbolt took a crap on me during deployment and I've been spending the last 2-3 weeks working on it here and there to make it the best battery life for my OWN personal usage.
People may say *Oh dur turn on 4G* I know 4G eats battery, but where I'm at, I get very very spotty signal, Most I use is 3G sending MMS. I keep data off all day since I just text.
Since I get spotty signal, obvious answer is my phone will use more battery for itself. I'm am well aware of this. I have most of the stuff memorized I have done to this phone, rom wise, build.prop, Kernel Tweaker etc. So if you have any questions about what I've done just ask me. It's hard enough to search through a ton of threads and get VERY VERY vague answers. Seems like it's been like this since I jumped on the HTC Inc back in the day

I did take these with my camera because screenshot didn't wanna work properly with me so I just grabbed my camera and shot the pics off. If anyone wants me to post my usuage from yesterday via battery_stats I can.
EclipticRez 5.2.1
Funky v2.3, S2W disabled.
The best results I've found in regards to battery life is with using Kernel Tuner and giving each processor core a different governor (cpu0 Badass, cpu1 Conservative) and underclocking and tweaking some settings in MPdecision. Also, turn off auto-brightness. Take it to around 35-40% and just leave it there.
I also leave LTE on at all times, but I also use WiFi wherever available.
Granted, I don't have my extended battery (yet - just ordered one earlier in the week), but I finished yesterday with 17 hours and 2 hours and a few minutes of screen on time. That's just with the standard 1620 mAh battery.

Well I will defiantly try that out, I was also using auto the whole day since I was constantly inside/outside when the sun was blaring.
What are your current MPDecisions in Kernel Tweaker?
Also in Kernel Tweaker, does it not sometimes load your settings for the CPU? I heard it was kernel related and not ROM related. Sometimes my CPU0 would stay at 1080MHz where I set it at but CPU1 would reset to 1.5Ghz

Mine jumps back up to 1.5 on CPU1 as well, but that's a non-issue. Set it to Conservative. Make sure that the minimum is set at 384 MHz for each core. Otherwise it will just start jumping around (at least, that's what happens to me). I don't know if it's exactly kernel related, though. I was able to run Funky 2.4 on a Sense 4 ROM (Newt's OneXxX 6.0.2, I think) and cpu1 stick, though.

Thanks. Ya that's what I just set it too. I was using dancedance on both cores when I posted up the screen shots. Will see how it goes for the most of the day. Yesterday I sent out almost 300 texts maybe or more so that was a majority of screen time with 3 different people to say the least.
Oh and another anomaly I can't quite figure out. Some days my phone only pulls less than -100mA and then only ~-20mA on average in screen off sleep. Now today instead of doing the same thing yesterday, todays average has been more near ~ -280mA+ with screen off sleep
I have changed nothing on the phone. Did a restart, no change. Shut phone down completely, pull battery and reboot and still the same result. And even when people ask me what my wakelocks are, I post them and then no one knows what they are nor can I find documentation on the software itself.
did u tried to check it with gsam battery to see what drain or what waking up the phone ?
Try uninstalling some memory intensive apps and reinstall them. Sometimes restored files, for me, just need to be reinstalled.
Also, I just received my extended battery and I'll see how far I can go with it.
How has your phone been doing since the new settings?

I think Poco has underclocked my CPU!

Hello,
I have been noticing my pocophone beeing sometimes laggy (so laggy that I think of throwing it into a wall) and sometimes, it freezes for few seconds (sometimes, I even have to force reboot it),
So I decided to try few things,
I started monitoring my cpu clock, and doing some benchmarks.
as opposed to the scores on geekbench 5 website, which are respectively 438 and 1745 for single and multi core performance, I get only 300 and 1096 scores!
as for the clock of my cpy, it never surpasses 1.8 ghz, while the advertised clock of the cpu is 2.8ghz!
Also, the performance cores rarely go higher than 576 mhz, even during benchmark!
Note that my device is fully stock (no root, locked bootloader, with the latest global update installed, android 10, miui 11)
So I am wondering, are you guys getting those scores or is it just me? and do custom roms have the same issue?
If this is caused by XIAOMI Software, I think this is totally unacceptable!
After recent updates antutu and geekbench scored declined, poco is doing underclocking cpu to make users force to buy new poco phone....it is really disturbing....i actually gonna root my phone and install pixel rom.
The Miui kernel of Pocophone F1 is capping the CPU at 2.09 GHz, I really don't know why but I think it's something to keep it cool and to enhance battery life

The Miui kernel of Pocophone F1 is capping the CPU at 2.09 GHz, I really don't know why but I think it's something to keep it cool and to enhance battery life View attachment 5019903

Which MIUI version is this, exactly? Android Pie/Q ? 11.0.5.0/11.0.6.0 ? Thanks!

Yup! It all depends on temps. It will throttle more as your phone gets hotter. If you live in a hot region there's nothing you can do. Just try to use it in cooler environments. And overclocking on mobile devices is not efficient. It is just there to tell you that you can.

Totally agree, but even if the phone is cool and the room temperature is 16 for example, the Pocophone F1 won't go over 2.09 GHz!.. This limitation made by miui kernel, no matter how hot or cool the phone is.

Even though I have never stayed on miui for over a week, I never had these issues. Wierd.
Well if the bootloader is locked only thing one can try is formatting the phone.
So I have charged my phone all night, and it seems magically fixed! (spoiler alert, not really)
It seems like it is a battery issue, under a certain battery percentage, miui will cap your cpu, even without turning on battery saver! because now, my cpu gets to 2.6 ghz, but still, the phone is so laggy, sometimes unusable laggy, as if it didn't have a flagship chip in it!
I have tested and I completely agree that the CPU is highly dependent on Battery Level. Even while plugged in (while low) the CPU scores are lower than should be.
But anything above 60% and you get what you expect. I'm assuming they are using the Apple version of extending battery life where they throttle CPU to make a dying battery last a bit longer. Remember that battery loses 10% first year, 30% second year and significantly more the years that follow.

Yup. MIui shuts a few thing off on low battery regardless if you have turned on battery saver or not. GPS is one example, I don't get location below 20% battery even if I'm floating next to GPS satellite.

I can assure you that this thing is not related to battery level at all, as my battery now is over 70% and it's still capped to 1.84 GHz..!

CPU throttling test and CPU monitor
Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
I see no issues here.
I don't know what's wrong with you guys' phones but my CPU clocks all the way to 2.8.
Fully stock MIUI 11.0.8 Android 10.

Your temperature is too high! 56 degree is CPU temp or battery temp?

Either way, whether CPU or Battery, it isn't normal temperature and it completely explains why he's facing the issues. It's normally around Summer where most posts like these begin and people don't even take into consideration that factor.
I can confirm this. MIUI kernel is limiting the performance factor by a huge extent. On latest 11.0.9.0 ROM the big cluster is capped at 1.8ghz even when phone is kept next to air conditioner and fully charged.
After flashing a custom ROM or kernel, the issues disappeared. Phone performance was back to buttery smooth and no throttling even in 35C ambient temperature.
Yes i had the same issue. As phone became laggy, i became frustrated.
Unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom rom and kernel.
The device now so smooth and free. I am loving it now.
If you want to stay on MIUI(but i suggest you use PE10+ rom), and ok with rooting, do it and install some kernel manager like FK kernel manager. Now you can clock your cpu and gpu as you like. Overclock it when you are doing some intensive gaming or underclock it when you want to save battery. Moreover now you can charge your device faster. MIUI limits the charging volt/amph but you can change that too. Advance Charging control App helps with that. It can charge up to certain % which you can set after which it automatically disconnects charger so leave your device connected to charger and it won't harm your battery.
If you do it and it helps then thank me later?.

Mi 9 beats against Mi 12 Pro in 2022 after stunning modification

Geekerwan releases an intresting video of hugely modifying the poor Mi 9 and the outcome is pretty hilarious.
In the clip, the team expands battery capacity to 10,800 mAh, flashes modded keneral to overclock screen and antique Snapdragon 855. By attaching a small fan directly to the protective board of the chip, the phone is easily running at the highest frequency as 2.84 Ghz after removing heat control. The Adreno 640 can hit as high as 840 Mhz in crazy, compared to the default 585 Mhz. With the help of 3D printer, the old phone has a new back cover to hold all these modifications.
The 3dmark result is surprising that the overclocked old Snapdragon 855 and his grandson Snapdragon 870 (Redmi K40) are neck and neck. The average FPS reaches 50 in Genshin Impact at high preset without overheat issue on Mi 12 Pro. What is more? The power consuption is 6.5W which is still lower than 8 Gen 1's 6.8W in power mode of Mi 12 Pro.
The best part is it only costs about CNY 1,300 (equivalent to USD 210) to achieve the goal.
So what does Qualcomm do in the past year?

that's interesting af ...
is this possible to do with poco f3 sd870 ? I know it’s powerful enough but I want to try it since Ive heard that the sd870 gpu :adreno 650 is locked by Qualcomm ‘trust zone’ , is this just a problem with sd870 or all SOCs that came after it are locked ? Thank you !

I don't know if it is possible and also would not recommend it because is possible to damage you battery or phone completely... You can check it directly in the 9t forum or TG

I just tried modifying the customize.sh by replacing "cepheus" with raphael and modifying the service.sh to input the mAh value I intend as my 2-cell battery now seem fit. It does work now but probably might need to account for battery wear later on. Thank you very much for the link, you have been a lifesaver.

Changing the name wont do anything.. If there were no errors on the module's install, nothing changed for you!
The module I linked above is for the BM3L battery with 4000mAh or 4200mAh.
Your device Mi 9T originally uses the BP40 or BP41 which has 4000mAh.
If you installed the 4200mAh module you may now have a fire extinguisher handy when charging yer phone
Please be careful!
@techfreak9356 one question tho.. Have you modified the original battery yourself with two cells?

yes, I connected two batteries in parallel, sharing 1 protection board, just like what geekerwan did. I am still going to make three cells later on with OEM batteries since these cheap fake batteries drain pretty quickly (even when they were still individual cells).

Great, it makes me less worried about it now!
I would recommend you to use an app to monitor the temperature of the battery and system so if anything is out of normal you would know before it goes south!
Good luck mate
