I am hoping that was the correct one. I flashed in clockwork and can not seem to find out how to get into it and change settings and stuff.
Thanks.
......you dont flash that in clockwork.....You download the .zip, open it up, inside is a .apk, you transfer that to your phones sd card, then use a program like astro file manager to navagate to where ever you put the .apk and then click on it and install it that way. Make sure you allow unknown sources under the applications menu under settings also.
Buy it from the market. Support the developer.

Ok got this figured out, what are good settings for the best battery life?
On main page there is a Max: and a Min:. What should those be set to? Also what should scaling bet set to?
Thanks.
I have the same question. I tried to search to see if there was a thread out there that talked more about this. Any help from the smart folks here would be great.

Depending on which kernel you have, if you want good performance and good battery then leave it on conservative scaling with max 1200mhz (if ur kernel supports, if not, then 1000mhz) and min 200mhz (u can put 100mhz but i recommend 200).. after u do that, go to the profiles tab in setcpu, then press add a profile>Condition:Screen Off>Max:400>Min:100>Scaling:Conservative>Priority:ur choice(i put 100).. make sure the check mark is selected and ur good..
Hope it was clear!
Thank you for the advice...going to give it a shot and see how things work. Again..thanks for the tips.

Also a bunch people had issues with the phone not waking if the "screen off" is set to 100mhz, myself included.... basically you have to do a battery pull to get it back on. If you have that issue then just raise your min to 200 and you should be OK.

no probelm.. anytime.. .. i learn and pass on the knowledge lol..
and like the guy said above about the 100mhz problem.. if it happens to u the min from 100 to 200.. it never happened to me though..
My profiles
If it helps at all this is how my setcpu is configured.
Main screen is 600-1600 set on conservative.
In profiles:
Screen Off priority 64, min/max 400, powersave scaling.
Charging AC/Full priority 50, min/max 1600, performance scaling.
Battery <75% priority 50, 400/1000, conservative
Battery <50% priority 50, 400/800, conservative
Battery <25% priority 50, 400/600, powersave
Battery <15% priority 50, 400/400, powersave.
Of course I'm sure there are other ways to do this (probably better) but I've found this gives me the best bang for my battery buck
I'm plugged into the AC adapter most of the day which is why the 25% and 15% are so drastic, If I were down at that low of battery I would most likely be near no power source and might end up needing to use my phone as a phone
Hope this helps, any feedback would be welcome if anybody has something better.

So you like to stick with a low end of 400 mhz? I was thinking of going that route as not to risk upsetting the wake-up of the phone. I was thinking of going to 1.2 ghz while on. I don't need any massive performance boosts and am on Twilight Kernel which supports up to 1.3, as you're most likely aware.

Especially this, because my posts are usually general statements.
Moved to Q&A.
Can someone please tell me what is considered "normal"?
Mine runs at about 55 constantly, is this dangerous?
Hi,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557494&highlight=cpu+temp
For example,there is another threads...
55°C is not dangerous and I doubt it runs constantly at 55°C,in sleep?when your browse on the net?when you watch a movie?or just when you naviguate in settings?
So,normal if you have this CPU temp while browsing or whatching a video,not very normal if your just naviguate in settings since 10 mins... (according to the CPU freq?) or if your phone is in sleep since 10 mins (if you do not download anything)->wake up and you see 55°C...
While it is charging?
The CPU temp limit is at 64°C (if you don't modify it),above thermal throttling,reboot...
And it's with stock kernel?custom kernel (CPU freq?voltage?),what are you doing exactly with your phone?

Thanks for the response mate.
I flashed Franco M3 last night and was admittidly browsing a lot before I went to bed and this morning.
Looking at it now where its been sat on my desk at work for a while its hovering around 35.
I suppose I was just looking for a little assurance my phone isnt going to break into a ball of flames suddenly!!!
Again appreciate the response mate, Thanks

In sleep,for example since 10 mins?without touching it?
Mine in sleep is at 22°C in my home (current ambient temperature about...24°C).
In extreme use (for example during a bench ) go to about 86°C...
In browsing about 55-56°C.
In light use (setting my home screen for example) about 40°C.
For example with System Tuner pro you can follow in real time your CPU temp (with graph).
Running at 1.42Ghz actually.
And in normal use I settled my CPU temp limit to 75°C (stock is 64°C),I feel that by increasing the CPU temp limit the phone heats a little less.

Always wonder on these forums and dont take this the wrong way but is their any other point than upping your benchmark by overclocking.
Do you have any noticeable difference in performance thats worth the loss in battery.

I'm just curious because what you said confuses me lol but, how exactly would INCREASING temp limit make the phone get hot less?
I don't know much about how that works (the nitty gritty details) but that seems kinda Counterintuitive?

Hi,
I do not know any more ,like I said "I feel"...
At the same CPU freq and about the same use I feel with a higher CPU temp limit the CPU heats less...that's what I thought noticed when I monitor the temperature evolution in System Tuner...Why?,Placebo?Not exactly the same condition?I do not look exactly at the same times (after a high load) compared to the stock CPU temp limit?...I don't know much...
I tried to reproduce the same conditions for both CPU temp limit,and I think I noticied this...But it's not "scientific" nor proven...
I may be an explanation in French but I can not do the same in English even with Google Translation...,too hard for me
And I am not a engineer in processor and I do not have large knowledge in this...And maybe,certainly,my explanation is crap

Re,
Yes there is a performance improvement it depends in what...
Some apps loads faster,my launcher is smoother (Apex),scrolling is better,etc...
Some people do not notice the other yes...
Even withe the "better" kernel,the more you overclock the more your battery life decreases,but it also depends of the voltage,governor and what you do with your phone...
If I run 15 benchs at 1.65Ghz for stability test (or for to show that I have a big **** LOL )...Bye bye the battery...

Hi,
I am running a wicked v2 rom, had an idea yesterday to try to downclock cpu to potentially increase battery live. Used SetCpu, set ut to ~1.4ghz, governor is powersave. No performace hit that i can notice, outside benchmarks. On my first day now, will see how it works out. Anyone done that, any statistics?

ive been doing this since the first custom kernel was released. you get a few more hours depending on how much you downclock
downclocking always worked on my nexus 4
On a side note doesn't the powersafe governer set your phones cpu to the lowest clock speed at ALL times. As in if your minimum clock speed is 300mhz then its going to set your phone there forever?
just curious why you would buy a phone with 4 cores clocked at 1.9 ghz and dropping it???
thats like buying a 500 horsepower car, and detuning it minus 200 hp... whats the point?? Im not cracking a joke, its a serious question
Well, the plan is to get a zerolemon battery when it comes out. And i really cant see and performance hit, otherwise i would not really sacrifice... Assuming performance doesnt suffer, why not squeeze some battery life out and run a phone cooler?

Hello everyone! I am very, very happy because i bought a Nexus 7 2013 a week ago. That same night I got home from the shop I knew it was getting root permissions. So i did the rooting method with WugFreshes toolkit and it worked like a dream I must admit. TWRP and Superuser installed in a flash.

I have the Franco Kernel and it's great. I have had no issues what so ever so far. It's smooth, fast and responsive. Games run extraordinary fast, I can amp up the graphics without to much frame drops, this includes games like GTA SA, GTA VC, Modern Combat 4 and N64/PS1 Emulators (and yes i own the roms :highfive. Back to the Kernel. All Wireless adapters are working (bluetooth, wifi, nfc etc), and wifi seems faster. Battery doesn't drain very fast at all, even with intensive load. But here is where my question actually is ...
I do understand that this question has been answered somewhere else in the Nexus 7 2013 forum, however can someone tell me my question in more detail? Thanks. :good:
Q. My question is, between what cpu temperatures is safe for my nexus 7 2013 to play intensive games at (etc emualtors, gta series, MC4)? What temperatures should i be alerted at. I am currently running GTA Sandreas and emulators at around 50-65 Degrese celcius (yes that's right celcius us auzzies use the metric system :silly: . )
Also if i overclocked it to 1.7GHZ then what would a stable temp be while idling and heavy load? (thanks!)
(last minute edit... Also what CPU is really used in this? People say it's an undercloked s4 pro or something? So if overcloked back to 1.7GHZ it'll be fine? Right?...)

Btw, my cpu hit 91º C this morning while I was playing nova 3 and I was using an overlay to see my gpu frequencies and usage. I think is too much.

I personally wouldn't worry about cpu temp that much. All the developers of custom kernels will set the thermal limits to whatever they think is appropriate. A much bigger concern than the cpu temp is heat being conducted to the battery. I would make a point of keeping the battery below 120F and I personally don't want to see over 110F (around 45C).

The overlay thing I was talking about earlier was the cause for that cpu temp, it used like 2 entire cores to function, without it, temps are more stable, can you believe that the tablet actually kinda burned my fingers if I pressed too hard? That's insane.
Now, I understand that the battery's temperature is something important, so you don't ruin your battery lifespan, but how come cpu temps don't matter as much as battery's does? What's the max temp for these devices?

I'm going to "guess" and say somewhere around 100C for the cpu. Just a guess. 60C for the battery would absolutely be bad news. 50C would make me nervous. Also the cpu will start to get throttled (underclocked) once it gets up to a certain temp, And once it reaches the max temp the cpu will get shut down and you will have to wait for it to cool down before it will boot back up. I would worry about the heat affecting the motherboard and the components on that before I would worry about heat damaging the cpu.

Theorically speaking, the safe working temperatures would be the where the thermal limit is which is around 105ºC.
However, it doesn't work like this because heat spreads to other components and more importantly, it spreads to the battery and we all know batteries don't like hot temperatures since it drastically reduces their life span and charge capability.
On practice, I would say keeping your CPU below 70ºC which will result in a colder battery aswell is the sweet spot.
On the Overclock matter, I have mine at 1900'ish Mhz and my GPU is at 490'ish Mhz and I haven't experienced any abnormal temperatures while runing benchmarks. Infact, the temps were kept below 50ºC which is more than fine.

I think the battery burns like hell when you're playing and charging it at the same time, am I right? I wonder, if the cpu and gpu are underload, the battery will drain quickly, does this mean that this produces more heat to the battery? How does that work.

A57 cluster, probably yes. I'm also working on a kernel, but I intensely dislike Overclocking because it isn't all that useful. The key to performance is with optimisation, not with raw power. So I'm most likely not going to include it, sorry.
What about underclocking and/or undervolting?
I think performance is good enough as it is, but would like to get better battery life.
I would like to be able to undervolt in order to relieve the bugging high temp warning. This phone rarely uses max performance. So, overclocking is not really a priority. Maybe a custom hotplug.
Crappy cpu. No point messing with it.

Hotplugging has been dropped not long ago. You'd basically need to reinvent it. Plus it costs more power than it would save
And what about undervolting to prevent excessive heat, @mythos234?
yea i guess undervolting is the only benefit here coz 2 ghz wont be hard to achieve but getting that overheating msg sooner aint worth it...
next thing u know is accessory back plates with mini fans to keep the phone cool...
seriously tho what good is the extra power for ? the phone is already fast with the correct setup (not that i saw any lag when it was stock)
anyone knows how to see the cpu binning in this phone?

This has been reported with using navigation, I believe, and I know people have reported it when shooting video. High screen brightness is likely a contributor. But there are examples of the phones running too warm.
Personally, I'd be more interested in cooler running, and longer battery life, rather than increased peak performance. So underclocking, if anything.
Well, the overclocking is not necessary, but is an opportunity to know the limits of the chipset. Moreover, with it we could know if we can make undervolting to our phones and make it more battery efficient with an underclocking kernel, when we need it.

Happens to me too when gaming. The problem I observe is that Indeed, it is not excessive heat. But LG thinks otherwise.
You can actually underclock using Kernel Auditor and disable cores. Unless you meant Undervolting.

Wanna check out periscope and comment back ? Atleast I know that app will push the phone to its limits.

Currently using Kernel Adiutor to disable both A57 cores and the phone screen does not heat up like before... Battery life has improved from what i saw yersterday. Continuing testing today. Only problem i have is the damn phone will enable one of the A57 cores after a while which i dont like. I need my settings to stick.
Any Kernel Dev know which files are causing this? Tab 3 had something like this but a couple of files changed solved the non sticking settings on cpu.
Overclocking/underclocking sure but just disabling cores would work for most.

I haven't had any popups or heat related reboots, so I was wondering what the matter is here.
On every phone I see complaints over heat so I wondered if something is to it here or if it's the usual. And if there are overheating warnings and shutdowns, then there might be indeed something in the bush.
Try charging your phone in the car whilst using google maps to get to an important meeting, and then take a call just for good measure............and boom, there you have your own little meltdown.

That happens on every phone I ever had though. It's advised to not use a device while charging at all, so if you stress it to 120% while charging, of course it heats up..
@mythos234 is a pleasure to have you here (speaking as xiaomi mi2s owner too xD)
What Temps do you reach using cpu intensive apps?
