How to disable thermal throttling on LG devices - LG Optimus G Pro

Open system menu by dialing 3845#*980#, go down the list, find items "High temperature property OFF" and "Thermal mitigation daemon OFF", check them both to Enabled ON state. PROFIT! I don't know maybe the reboot is needed or not. But with thermal mitigation daemon disabled you can achieve as high as 24700 in Antutu and the screen would not dim in hot conditions anymore
And of course don't forget that if you damage your phone somehow by overheating it or shorten you battery capacity its not us to blame. Be a reasonable guy with your hardware
Of course tweak can be applied to any LG Phone, say to E970, for example

So this doesn't increase the cpu speed from 1700 to 1900? How fast will the cpu run to achieve 24000+ score on Antutu?

Now, it won't automatically go higher than 1700, it merely will not drop to 1100 or whatever speed stated in thermal.conf in case of matching thermal threshold and just will continue to work on 1700. In fact I don't think it will somehow "damage" SoC, it's just meant to save your hand from holding 50°C device while gameplaying

No, can not, I use on 50% brightness so it never get hot and therefor never dim on me

Thanks for this! Always wondered why this phone stayed so cool. Benchmarks are higher, games run smoother and so far it looks like the occasional but horrible home screen lag I get while using live wallpaper (any launcher) seems to be gone so far.
I'm cautiously optimistic that this will fix the lag, but I'm sure you're right, it seems like the phone randomly idles some cores causing the lag. Hopefully we see some custom kernels for this device soon.
Thanks again.

Notice in the last screen shot how Antutu usually warms the phone up to the point where it only runs at 1.1 ghz. Also in quadrant, I'd get anywhere between 11000 and 8000 in testing, now it is consistently in the 12000 range. Awesome!

Because the setting is to turn off the thermal control. So by checking the box to on you are turning it off. It will always say off, as long as the box is set to on then it is working.

Do you get more screen time with throttling turned on? Or is it just about the same?

I noticed it got pretty warm after only playing pinball arcade for 15 minutes I have used it for hours before without it getting warm. I might have to turn the throttling back on just to be on the safe side. Call me a wuss

Wuss. The gs4 and many of other Android device and iphones practically melt your hands while gaming. That said, my phone has remained quite cool unless charging and even still it stays under 100 degree.

Yea power mode, horrible feature, barely saves battery and slows phone down. Your phones cpu throttles when it needs to use its power so it saves power that way. Im on JB AOKP and with it overclocked too 1.9ghz and throttling too 197mhz I get awesome battery life. Im sitting at 35 hours on battery with 7% left with moderate use. Thats incredible!

i use the power-saving feature a lot... i get paranoid when the battery gets below 30% and i know lithium ion batteries should never be fully discharged. the phone functions surprisingly smooth at even 1000 mhz and the decrease in speed barely even unnoticeable unless you're heavily multitasking. i also have SetCPU to underclock my peak speeds even lower for certain apps, or during various charging states, or different times of the day (evenings, weekends, work hours), and overclock for more resource-intensive apps (browser, skype, games, etc.).
try undervolting your cpu as well to have the best gain in battery life. ppl often forget the voltage part of CPU especially if you are going to overclock this puppy

S3 getting hot when playing games and..

Hey gang.
Does everyone's s3 get hot when playing games?
Just trying to figure out if it's normal. It feels hotter than other phones I've owned. And want to know if this is common or if I should return my S3
It's really warm when using data (browsing, YouTube etc.) around 95-105°
But gets hot when playing games. Around 120 -125°
Chime in. Would love some feedback on everyone's S3.

I believe this is normal as long as you monitor and don't over clock a lot. Eventually that can kill your hardware.

Been monitoring temps with system tuner under different stress levels. Playing gta3 I pushed temps to 52°C.
Internet browsing has me around the low 40s. At idle the temp is around 32-35C

Under voting helps with this a TON. I took my voltage for 1.5ghz from 1150mv down to 1025mv and it stays much much cooler under full load. Oh and temps won't break your cpu, too much nanny software on this chip. Even over clocked. Over voltage may though =)

The phone gets really warm on stock. The cpu has a temp control feature that if it gets too hot it will slow down. The cpu is made to work up to really high temperatures so I wouldn't worry too much about it.
If you flash to a custom kernel, they are lowering voltages on some of the frequencies and I am noticing an incredible loss of heat. My phone does not get warm anymore, at least no where near stock.

This. Like faux said some of the chips run the same voltage across many frequencies (in my case 1150mv) I was able to lower them into the 850-1050s which is crazy low. Remember power draw goes up exponentially with voltage change.

Is it possible that the American version (dualcore 2gb ram) doesnt get as hot as the international one (quadcore exynos 1gb ram)?
Mine gets pretty hot as well when i play for long times, i guess the main reason why many people are talking about this is that the Chipsets are located directly at the bottom where you would hold your phone while gaming in portrait mode for example. So you can directly feel it and the heat of your hand further warms the phone My Tegra3 tablet gets pretty hot as well in one spot - where the cpu is, but its not a place you normally place your hands, so you wont even notice that it gets warm.
Same thing was with my previous phone the DesireHD. It never got hot on the places where i held it, so you think it wont heat up at all.
In general though: I have some experience with cpu clocking on PCs and overclocking and stuff. It depends a little on the chipset of course but in general temps like 50-70° C are no problem at all for CPUs.
Workaround on SGSIII: Enable power save mode CPU. It reduces the clock to 1ghz (at least on my rom - stock jelly bean polish release), it still runs most games and UI perfectly smooth in jelly bean but it gets considerably less hot.
if i install many apps at once (testing new roms) my phone gets hot

Phone feeling hot

Hey guys, I had my phone for no more than an hour. Rooted and flashed cm10. Phone seems to get warm like 100 degrees f. And that's not using data or WiFi.
I had stock on for a little and noticed the same thing, is my phone jacked or is this normal? I have warranty so if none of you guys experience this I'll take it in. I just don't think it's too healthy for the device...

My phone gets pretty hot sometimes too, but only during heavy usage and multitasking. If you're finding that it's heating up when you're just browsing the web or installing apps, try using another kernel. I recommend Lean Kernel with CM10

My s2 barely gets hot :/ and thats with no back cover on just a case. but the battery temps are much lower as well on the S2. usually around upper 70s to lower 80s degrees farenheit under normal load.
yeah
my phone does the same it sometimes does the same it gets hot on the bottom back part
Personally I believe it can be rom/kernel related too. Usually it doesn't get really warm for me except under load. But with the latest leak, if im using it at all, it just stays warm. When I was first using it this morn it actually got pretty hot and when charging got even hotter. I let it cool and hasn't been that hot since.

Mine use to get a lil warm too under heavy usage,until i flashed Faux kernel(<<THIS KERNEL SUPPORT UNDERVOLTING) on sonic Gs3 rom & then i used system tuner to undervolt cpu further(yes undervolt not underclock) although i am running at default clock speed with conservative & cfq settings.Since then my phone runs pretty cool even on heavy usage.I heard the default voltage are sometimes higher than what is needed which may increase phone temperature faster,My battery life is even better now than it already was on Gs3 rom, KEEP IN MIND YOU MUST RUN A CPU STRESSED TEST IN THE SET CPU APP WHEN YOU CHANGE YOUR PHONE VOLTAGE SETTING TO MAKE SURE THERE IS NO ERROR,RANDOM REBOOTS,BOOT LOOP,LAG OR JUST A LIL SLUGGISHNESS BECAUSE YOU UNDERVOLT TOO LOW & KEEP IN MIND NOT ALL CHIPS ARE CREATED EQUAL,So my settings may only be stable of my phone,you may have to take that risk & experiment around.
I attached screenshots of my personal undervolt in system tuner & also a screenshot of default voltage of I9300 variant but i figure.

No reason to undervolt or overclock this hardware. Overclocking became irrelevant when dual cores came out. Undervolting was never relevant. People do it because they like to play around with their hardware, which I understand, though I've always been more interested in software myself.

Don't try to turn it on until its cooled down.
Take the battery out and leave the back door off for half hour then try again.
Just so we know, did you turn Thermal Throttling off in the hidden menu? If so, this is a prime example of why I have been telling people not to do this.

Hey Lenny,
I didn't turn Thermal Throttling off. And I would also advise people to not do that.
I've just returned from CPW with a brand new handset! FYI the 28 day replacement policy starts from the day you receive the phone so I was still covered. Just!
I did all the things you suggest. It was stone cold and it still wouldn't get past the LG boot screen. Also the little sparkly animation on the LG letters wasn't playing which suggests it borks out very early on in the boot sequence.
I really hope we don't start to see this more.
Fingers crossed!

OK, get Antutu Benchmark, run the 15-min stress test, then in the app's info tab check battery's temperature. We'll compare it. Actually note the temperature before and after test.
Antutu measures only battery's temperature but for this test it is good enough, however do not recharge it during the test.

The tablet is not thermal throttling. If you have that turned off, turn it back on. I had it off on my lg g3 once and it hit 110°C while it was updating apps. Check the thermal tab in K.A

I'm using Elementalx kernel manager and It's default set to 80,85,92,102 °C. I downloaded K.A and I setted it to 70 °C so I check it now.

I setted the temp in K.A and after every boot says current value is not supported. I setted the temp in Elementalx kernel manager to 70,75,82,92 and always still go to 80 when playing.
