Hello,
I am the owner of SGN since september.
I am really disappointed, because there seems to be a problem with 3D graphics performance: and to be precise with its FPS consistence. In some 3D excessive games (GTA in particular, but also Trials Xtreme 3, NFS:MW and other AAA titles) there seems to be a problem: there is a certain interval of time when a game works perfectly, and then for a few seconds it slows down WITHOUT A REASON and then plays good again. This seems to be particulary a problem in GTA games where the game slows down to a mere 4 FPS, and then continues to run flawlessly for 20-30 seconds, then slows down again for a few, and so on.
PLEASE help me xda, you are my only hope. Noone seems to have a clue on what can potentially cause this weird problem.
do you have force gpu rendering turned on? anything running in the background? what about facebook syncing?

First of all, thanks for Your response.
Yes, I did triet turning the force GPU thingy on. Doesn't seem to help.
I think background apps are not an issue since I tested my phone after formatting it and it was clean.
Facebook syncing? What do you mean?
If you use the Facebook app, it might constantly trying to sync. You said you had the same problem on a clean install though so I'm thinking that's not the problem
I bet that the cpu is at 70 C, and the Thermal Throttle enter in function.
I had the same problem with dead trigger (i found that it automaically set up the Tegra effect)

Thanks for the answer!
Yes, the phone do gets quite hot after a while actually!
So is this behaviour normal? And how should I fix this, if it is at all doable?

When the cpu reaches the thermal throttal temperature (about 70°C) it slows the cpu down so that it cools down. When it reaches the 70°C mark again the procedure repeats. So if you would turn thermal throttle off it shouldnt happen again I THINK. But I dont recommend doing that. Stay safe, keep your baby safe (gnex )

Well, I cant find these "power saving" options mentioned in a thread above. Can anyone help me to find them? Are they even present in SGN?
And how can I disable thermal throttling, just for the test?
And thanks for all the help so far!
Guys, excuse my English.
This week I bought 2 tablets Lg g Pad. One for me and one for my girlfriend
I think that mine is defective because it almost never gets past the test of Antutu. Always inform your tablet which will be shut down because of heat and it turns off automatically. The few times I managed to do the test, it registers 19 to 22mil points.
On the tablet of my girlfriend I can do this test and usually always score reaches 25,000 points, with little variation.
Someone already managed to fix this? I'll have to take it to rma?
Another recurring problem I'm having with my tablet is the message "Unfortunately, bluetooth has stopped" every time I open the TrackID app. Although I have tested bluetooth and is running smoothly.

I believe the overheating gpad should be rma'd or returned to the place of purchase and exchanged. Something is definitely wrong and of the few I have heard had overheating issues I have not heard of anyone fixing them themselves...
There are different CPU bin's out there. You might have one that takes a higher voltage to hit max clocks. As it is I feel the Gpad runs very close to that software shutdown limit in my testing. I can't remember the number off the top of my head but the stock LG kernel thermal shutdown is like 95 or 97, the qualcomm hard shutdown is 120 I think. So it *is* possibly to fix by changing the kernel shutdown limit higher. I don't think that should be necessary though for the owner to do, that tablet should work with all 4 cores at 100% or you aren't getting what you paid for. You can see in your Antutu scores that yours is thermal throttling the CPU speed and STILL exceeding the limit sometimes.
You can use Faux Clock to turn off thermal settings.

I have absolutely same problems. Antutu test become my pad overheated and go to shutdown. I try to run Antutu without heat protection- same problem but shutdown without message on same place. Also I have some extra temperature while using Chrome or Opera and open a lot of bookmarks. Brightness lowering automatically due overheating and come back automatically then device become "normal" temp. I have 4.4.2 Rooted stock firmware. V50020a.
to disable automatic lowering the brightness, use app from the play store called: "LGBrightnessPatcher", NO SPACE.
also can be used to other LG's devices...

I am.on stock rom. I don't think I can flash any other rom as it's an AT&T one so locked bootloader and no custom recovery etc...
Hey, Folks,
I just bought this tablet, and it is absolutely gorgeous!
The only concern that it HEATS UP sometimes.
My observation is that it heats
when three out of four processor cores (namely cpu 1, 2, 3)
get stuck at an elevated 1.57GHz frequency
(min is 0.3GHz, max is 2.27GHz)
You can see it with 3C toolbox or CPU-Z apps.
These apps report also that the internal temperatures go from 30-ish to 50-ish and even to 60-ish degrees then.
When the processor gets stuck like this, only the reboot can help, nothing else I tried can kick the process out of this stuck state..
I imagine the processor eats also quite a lot of battery then..
Do you think it is something that can be helped with by ROOTING the tablet?
(I've updated to 4.4.2)
Or it looks more like a hardware issue and I need to exchange the tablet?
Appreciate your suggestions..
P.S. Also would be curious to know if anyone else has the processor stuck like described above and what are the temperatures reported by 3X toolbox or CPU-Z...
Mine did that too the first some days then it got better. Wait about a week and if it keeps happening DM(Private) message me or post another thread

Thank you! Mine started to behave too. I do not see any overheating due to the CPU stuck.
In the mean time I learned that this "stuck CPU" problem seem to be common for Tab Pro,
but nobody cares, so perhaps it is not too serious..
Yeah it's still a problem and a battery drainer too , but you can replace the mpdecision binary with one that works (root only) and it will solve the issue, still sucks Samsung doesn't fix it, hopefully when/if they release lollipop all these issues will be solved.
can get the CM mpdecision here

Fascinating, I have noticed random battery drain on the gtp8.4. Possibly the reason I noticed it randomly is that I restart the tab now and then after updating hosts file, and that gets done whenever there are updates, not on regular schedule.
Thanks!
So after upgrading to MM, I noticed that a process called "logd" was always in the top few apps of battery hogs in GSAM Battery Monitor. Instructions on the Internet on how to fix this all don't apply to the Verizon G4, so I am sharing here how to do it in case someone else runs into it.
So first of all confirm you have the problem. When you open a terminal and run 'top -m 5', if you see a process called logd spiking up to 16% frequently every few seconds then you know you have the problem as well.
Now in order to address the issue,
1. Type ##228378 in the dialer and press call. It should bring up the hidden menu
2. Select "Log Enable"
3. Select "Disable"
4. Reboot the phone
Now the battery hogging of logd should be history. You can use the terminal method above to confirm, the frequent spikes to 16% CPU should be gone.

It will help battery life, how much exactly and if you will notice it depends on your individual usage pattern. But I have noticed a great bump in battery life since doing this tweak (and also debloating some apps). My battery life with MM is now at least as good as it was on Lolipop, while it was noticeably worse than Lolipop before.

According to this, has something to do with logcat: https://www.reddit.com/r/lgg4/comments/42au1r/psa_how_to_fix_60_marshmallow_logd_battery_drain/
No clue why it eats up that much CPU on the LG G4 though, that looks like a bug or bad configuration. Every few seconds it spikes up to 16% CPU for several seconds, which means it utilizes one core (probably high-performance core) 100% for that time. I have another LG tablet where this process is running too, but nowhere close in battery usage there.
Can anybody that has tried this report back whether they saw an impact on battery life?
I have been having the 'Logd' problem for some time, with terrible battery life as a result. I have tried this fix, and at first it seemed to be working. However the Logd process has returned to consuming between 20-30% of my battery life despite Disabling the Log function in the hidden menu.
Has anyone discovered any other fixes for this problem? Seems as though there are limited options for VS986 owners who experience this problem.
Thanks,
Hi guys.
I have global device version, without root, everything is default.
Sometimes (independently how exactly I use the device) it could be locked on maximum CPU frequency. I noticed this issue just, randomly. I've installed CPUZ to see more details about phone and then noticed that all frequencies in maximum (1612 first 4 cores and 1804 all another 4 cores).
Then I've installed AccuBattery to see the energy consumption and noticed that when this bug occurs, the device consumes about 210-240 mAh (with disabled all wireless interfaces surely), but after restart, when everything OK with frequencies stepping, it consumes about 110-140 mAh.
I've been facing this issue on 9.5.19.0 and the same on 8.8.16.
Have someone similar issues? Could you please install CPU-Z (or any anorher similar application) and say if everyone has locked frequencies?
Yes, I know, I've checked all background processes, I've enabled debug mode, connected via cable to laptop and.. adb shell -> top, I was seeing on real CPU activity. It could occurs randomly and then only reboot device could fix it until it happen again.
The same bug I found on the same phone in my friend. Strange, actually.

I knew this problem about 2-3 weeks ago. When you charging, it go up top freqs too
That's why I want to use custom kernel. But sometimes ( much less than stock ) locked at top freqs so I think it is Miui system policy also.
You should try some kernel manager to solve temporary.

Aha, yes, you're right. Now I sorted our everything in my mind and seems it occurs after charging.
Do you think the same issue has all people with this smartphone? But just a lot of them doesn't look on that?
But I'd say it's critical bug to have locked frequencies. Why do you think it's like "miui system policy"?
I had many xiaomi devices, only here I faced with this issue. I thought may be my phone has manufacturing defects.. but seems the bug is general on our device.
What the miui version you have?
Ah, I didn't want to root my device.. I wanted to leave it as is, as stock and don't think about all this headache, but seems the time to unlock bootloader.. Because I haven't root, so, I'm not able to use any kernel managers to reset the frequencies/governors

- Miui system policy: I can not freeze/delete many system apps/modules after rooted. I also can not disable many Miui services/procsess ( by MyAndroidTools ). Miui also has performance mode for some purposes, can be auto activate in some cases
Does it drain battery faster? It can be caused by one of your user app. Try to remember when this started to happen, and traceback to the time you install/update apps during that period. Use MiXplorer and check the last installed app. There are apps that can triggered to mine cryptocurrency during charging, making your phone super hot and charge very slow. I am not saying it must be a malware, but it can be some apps that act similarly.
Try to boot to safe mode for several hours to check if it really caused by user app. Turn off your phone > Hold power to turn on > As soon as mi logo appear, quickly hold volume down until the phone finish booting (can be up to 30 seconds). You should see "safe mode" watermark at the bottom left corner, indicating all user app has been temporary disabled. Leave it for several hours to see if the battery still drain or the phone stay awake all the time (high cpu usage). To exit from safe mode, simply reboot.
I always found it is kind of a habit to blame MIUI for everything. I am not defending MIUI here, they bloat a lot. I also hate it and I am using RR now. But on several occassions when we troubleshoot, we found out it is one of the user app that cause the trouble, ads, or slow charging; not anything related to MIUI. Blaming MIUI won't solve the problem, only troubleshooting will lead us to the real culprit. In your case, it still can be caused by the MIUI itself. But until you troubleshoot it out, you won't know who is the real culprit.
For comparison, when still using MIUI 9.5.17.0 I can easily achieve 10+ hours SOT within 1,5 days (max is 14 hours). When switched to RR, affected by the wifi deep sleep drain, I rarely get 10 hours SOT anymore. Still in the process of troubleshooting the problem.

I've checked everything. It occurs after charging in most cases. I think that is the bug in governor. Yes, it drain battery a bit faster, but just a bit, I just calculated emergy consumption.
So, when my frequencies was locked, I just connected my phone via ADB to laptop and was looking at the "top" utility to see the load of CPU. And guess what? No load! Idle 796%. (all another 4% for top with refreshing each second and for CPU-Z ran on device).
Weird bug, actually...
I think I have unlock device and re-flash firmware via fastboot to over-write everything.. who knows where bug is hidden.
I've already done full reinstall system. wipe.. but it could occurs even during I read the book. Or just.. enable device, go to CPUZ, and frecuencies locked at max. Absolutely random event

Try not to install anything first after the wipe. Or just try the safe mode. As I said before, it might be caused by the same user app you installed after you wipe.

That's could be.
I've unlocked bootloader and just flashed the last 8.8.16 with fastboot (just had thought about it could fix something, may be some thin deep bug).
But no, after I've installed the firmware with fastboot, I've started to install all my software from Google play. And guess what? I just see in cpuz and see the same - frequencies are locked on maximum values.
Strange .. I don't use something custom, or from unverified sources, just everything from google play.
Even without games (just PUBG). All another software just social. FB, messenger, Instagram, telegram, WhatsApp, Viber, and so on. And I even cannot to see what application could cause that. Don't want to root the device. After I've installed everything and rebooted device (to reset that bug with frequencies), now everything normal. Continue observation...
Just wanted to find someone who has the same issue and at least compare revisions, installed apps and so on...to try to find the trigger which causes this issue.

That's why I prefer the troubleshooting starting from small first, before going thru the whole ROM flashing. 80% of the time, it is caused by user app. A simple safe mode or factory reset will pointed out a very obvious clue immediately.
Not all playstore app are bug-free, we just don't know what happened in the next update of the app.
While you don't state it before, it can be mediaserver bug. It is caused by the mediascan which stucked at certain file/folder during the scan and keep eating CPU cycle forever. But I've never seen it goes thru almost full CPU load. The solution is to rearrange the files/folder in your internal storage or microsd (if you have it), clean up as needed. Sometimes, a simple restart resolve the issue, but not always.
I have Whatsapp. Some users in the kaskus has FB, IG, Telegram installed; I don't see much complaint from them regarding the CPU usage, except that the IG story are cropped/zoomed (16:9 to 18:9 ratio problem). You can only troubleshoot it step by step, by installing one app at a time. It is very lengthy process and tedious. But usually you can spot which app can be the potential culprit by looking at the battery usage of them. Example, you don't use viber at all, by it appears as one of the highest battery usage.

I have Whatsapp. Some users in the kaskus has FB, IG, Telegram installed; I don't see much complaint from them regarding the CPU usage, except that the IG story are cropped/zoomed (16:9 to 18:9 ratio problem). You can only troubleshoot it step by step, by installing one app at a time. It is very lengthy process and tedious. But usually you can spot which app can be the potential culprit by looking at the battery usage of them. Example, you don't use viber at all, by it appears as one of the highest battery usage.

Yes, I understand that and understand why it would occurs and tried to investigate in this way, but...
I have equals application list which I had on previous device except...CPU-Z and AccuBattery (the AccuBattery for now is removed) because of I faced with this frequencies issues.
This morning it happened again. But I just.. woke up, saw on frequencies - everything OK. Then I just.. Instagram, Telegram, Facebook Messenger and Google Chrome and no more. Then I realized that the phone became a bit warm.. I saw on frequencies - it was locked again
As it happened, I've came to office, connected via ADB to laptop and made several screenshots from `top` utility and looked a bit into `adb logcat`. But nothing... IDLE ~798%. And then I've tried to go to all apps and do force stop for ALL apps. But nothing.
I just rebooted device again...
Please look on it.. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yXjQQ4rsF3MURh1PF0DZ1Z_Gtgc4-m4_
Just concerning about.. there are a lot errors in logcat. But I understand that.. that's ok.
But 90% of logs flowing from system processes, not from apps. But there is nothing critical.. Nothing something what could flow unstoppable text and caused over-loading CPU.
I'm afraid that it could be manufacturing defects
I event tried to re-flash firmware with fastboot (I thought that byte-by-byte flasing into ROM memory could fix some random small issues). But after flashing with fastboot this CPU locking happening again.
Actually.. dunno what to do with that. The last thought to try any custom ROM (may be Lineage OS) with custom kernel and make sure that it is just bug in Xiaomi's ROM..
And I've posted about this bug on official MIUI forum and seems this bug happening with some people.

Talking about me. I've flashed Pixel Experience and for now everything good. Seems that's the bug in xiaomi firmware.

Maybe that's the random issue with certain apps configuration with some users. Not all reporting the same. Seems to be related to thermal engine or CPU governor configuration. But I don't know where it goes wrong. At least you solved it now by flashing custom ROM.

I just used custom firmware just for check is that factory defect. But seems that's issue only with xiaomi's firmware.
Yes, I thought that could be governor likewise. But.. Don't think so, because this low-level things, I think, debugged and enhanced successfully by default. Seems some conflicts between system applications.
On custom ROM I haven't faced with this issue, so...
But this morning I've flashed again the global stable firmware (9.6.3.0), will see how it will going..

Yes, I've got first lock on maximum frequencies.
So, after researches.. I could say that it's a bug in xiaomi firmware. Definitely.
I also have this problem on every MIUI rom, with stock or custom kernel. It happens randomly. I have tested in 9.6.19, 9.6.4.0, and betas 8.8.23 and 8.8.30.
If I flash any custom rom the problem desapears so it must be a problem of miui rom itself.

I have no problem with Miui based custom Rom + custom kernel

Could you specify the rom and kernel, please?
