One X keeps overheating

Hi!
It's the summer where I live and it's like above 40°C in my appartment (Yeah, I've a free sauna, jealous?), and this cause my One X to overheat all the time, I'm not even doing "heavy" stuff, just browsing the Internet or Facebook via Wifi, I already tried to slow down the CPU to 1200Mhz but it is still very hot, is there a solution to avoid this issue (apart from "DON'T TOUCH IT!"), I can't believe that Taiwan is a cold country and that the HTC was not made to work at 40°C...
You can see my ROM and Kernel above this message (signature) I'm trying to install Viper ROM to see if it fixes the issue... :fingers-crossed:

Nevermind, I fixed it, I used wrong voltage and too low down threshold value in SetCPU which caused the CPU to overheat and stand longer activated, silly me

Could you tell us what configuration you're using? I'm kinda having the same problem.
Appreciate your help.

i would like to know the same thing, what voltage calibration did you use and when you were able to get the temp down to what you liked did you still have good gaming performance?

he fixed nothing, he messed up his cpu settings and noticed it later, so he put the cpu settings back to stock.

Wow, what a up !
Seriously though, I'm not using my HTC One X anymore, but last time I used it, I used Faux kernel with -100 uV and some Ondemand governor tweaks (mostly to lower frequencies at as state that is just above lags) and it was running lagfree and a lot cooler than stock, but I hope you don't mind loosing a bit of 3D perf...

[Q] Overclock with SetCPU

Hi,
Would anyone be kind enough to list a step-by-step process on how to overclock the Note 8.0 using SetCPU? I'm a new user of this app and I'm afraid I may end up doing some irreparable damage to the device.
I am also just curious to see if I can squeeze some more gaming juice from the Note 8.0.
thanks in advance.

I was going to post a link to a setCPU guide, but its no longer available
Id only push the CPU a little. In order to gain real gaming perfomance increases you need to push the GPU, but in order to do that you will need a kernel that supports it.
I only received my tablet last night and wont be rooting it until the weekend so cant say what settings ill be using yet. my aim is to attempt to overclock slightly and undervolt where I can...

You're not going to break it with SetCPU. If you overclock too much, the system will become unstable, then just back off. Also, the system will shut itself off well before any temperature possible of causing permanent damage was reached.
SetCPU has an option to create a recovery-flashable zip file, which resets the CPU settings to default. I would absolutely take this precaution, as I've had to resort to it on my old HTC Flyer tablet (became unstable, and bootlooped). As long as you select this option, you're pretty safe.
Other than that, just follow the basic rule of overclocking any computer, and push the clock up one or 2 increments at a time, then test for a few hours to see if the tablet is stable under various usage conditions. Repeat until you've either reached a desirable clock speed, or encounter instabilities.
Also, as you may already be aware, higher than "stock" CPU clock steps are normally not available unless you flash a custom kernel.

The trickster app supports GPU overclock on Civato's kernel.
If you're looking to push the GPU that's the way to go.

Thanks for the valuable inputs to all.

Does the Trickster app allow for senario clock settings. Ie. underclock the CPU on screen off or if battery is bellow a certain percentage?
I may have to switch from setCPU to it if it has the same settings and more...

Kernel Questions/ Developers Please Help?

Been playing around with Glitch and ElementalX today and I have 2 questions:
1) On the thermal throttling values, what do the values correspond to?
Does the throttling get more aggressive as you hit each value? If so what are the
"rules" of the throttling? Is the top one the temp where the device force shuts off?
2) What are the nominal values of the L2/Bus Overclock on the ElementalX kernel and
are many people able to run the 1.49/4.80 slot on Glitch? I keep having crashes no matter how low I
set CPU/GPU/Bus OC and am using Elemental until I can figure out why.

LG G3 severe overheating makes phone semi-unusable.

Hello all,
I have installed Fulmics Rom 5.3 with latest xceed beta kernel in my D855 (32GB edition).
My problem is that it overheats like crazy.
I started checking the temp readings inside the Synapse app and it goes like this:
Idle temperature:55 degrees Celsius,
Normal web browsing:65 degrees Celsius,
Demanding web browsing,1080p+ video quality watching,playing games:80 degrees Celsius,
at which point it crashes either by rebooting the UI or in some cases, by rebooting the phone when it reaches 85+ I think.
Needless to say,it lags annoyingly much,it freezes a lot and it crashes in the middle of videos or game playing (so I can't play at all most of the time).
The culprit must be external temperature.The past few days we have temperatures of over 40 degrees Celsius here
and the thermometer in my room shows right now 33 degrees Celsius.
I have removed the protective case because then my phone was completely useless.
Do you guys have any idea or tip on how i can mitigate these effects?

Do you use xposed?
Using xposed along with xceed kernel will give you severe overheating.

There are a couple popular mods available for overheat. One is with software tweaks and the other is a hardware mod.
CTT(software mod) mod... http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...-marshmallow-testers-g3-t3313870#post65295829
Thermal paste/pad(hardware mod)... http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/thermal-paste-to-cooling-g3-t3130752
*I don't use fulmics...if 5.3 is a lollipop rom search for the original CTT mod as it was made for LP.
Good luck

oh guys, i just got this problem maybe. I after take a photos, suddenly my lg g3 d855 restart, maybe because it is hot. then it goes to bootloop. i dont know why then i take off my handphone. i charge my handphone from about 10% to 60%, then i turned on again. it didnt bootloop, it operated normal again.

If the phone shutdown due to high temperatures you can try ctt mod. The link is in the above post.
I've faced extreme temperatures when shooting video on uhd but not while taking any photos. Are you sure it's because if temperature or a bug on the rom?

Fulmics is an android 6 rom.I think xceed implements a custom ctt mod and I do have used it before independently of a custom kernel.It went pretty smooth until it hit high temperatures and the phone completely shut down.Every time.
I may try the hardware mod,although I am sceptical about the warranty.The software I can bring it back to stock.I have some Arctic Silver 5 laying around.Should I use this or a pad?

If you think you will need to send it in at some point I would say use the pad instead of the paste for ease of removal. If there is paste all over the place they may invalidate your warranty. I used some paste and it worked fine...but I have no warranty to worry about.
But you may want to try a different kernel or run your ROM with the "stock" kernel included in Fulmics for a little while to make sure you don't have some weird conflict causing your issue. Other posters mentioned xposed or the kernel could be the issue, so it could just be your setup messing with you.

Xposed is the culprit here. When I had this problem I went back to stock kernel instead of removing xposed. With stock kernel it works perfect.

I will try without xposed and xceed and see what happens.
Big thanks to you both!!!

Some days after this,the phone runs a lot smoother.It does not freeze a lot and does not restart itself or the UI.
When I am inside my house it performs like a G3 should perform.Outside...that is another issue.The CPU temp reads 85 degrees celsius most of the time,but that is typical here.Most of the people experience it under the unforgiving sun of my country.
Thanks for the tips!Will try the hardware one after a while to see if I can get it cooler.

It's still abnormal.
I may understand high temperature like 70-75 °C, but higher one is indication of some buggy process.
According to my experience, using Kernel Adiutor (regardless the kernel is stock or custom) will get you in battery draining, due to overloading and the preventing of Deep Sleep status.
If you've modded kernel, try to undo all changes.

After your tips,I uninstalled every app that needed the xposed kernel and uninstalled the xposed kernel itself.
Then I rebooted into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik/art.I installed Fulmics Rom 5.1, 5.1 to 5.2 update, 5.2 to 5.3 update and rebooted.
Neither any app that modifies anything in the system,nor any mod was installed.
Could I give any screenshot or info of processes,apps etc so you can advise me better?

The SystemUI consumption is abnormal.
It should be no more than 5%.
Then I can't see the Deep Sleep status, that's problematic too.
What kind of apps are you using?
****ty software like Clean Master, mods, custom kernel, some Xposed module... tell me.

Well I will just show you all of them
No mods except what Fulmics offered in Aroma,which I installed all except the CTT mod.No custom kernel or xposed framework installed.

I had the same overheating issues without xposed, I used the hardware mod and it worked perfectly. Once I connected the cpu with the frame the idle temp dropped ~15 to 20 degrees, and I have no probs running any app with a custom kernel and overclocked cpu.

Is Redmi note 8 pro locked at 2 GHz normal?

i've been using this phone for about 2 years now and recently moved (about a few months ago) to using a custom rom (crdroid 7.1.2). it was running smooth and cool until day the clockspeed decided to lock itself at 2000 MHz (checked using cpu-z). I do not know if this is normal but the phone's temperature goes up to 36C on idle. i thought the problem was with the Lspeed app (+custom kernel) so i uninstalled it but it didn't work. I also factory resetting it, but still not luck. will updating the firmware resolve my issue? if not, what other available solutions are there?

If you are using Fast Charging, that heating is entirely normal (happens to me too)
But heating during idle is not normal. Try changing CPU governor to something else. (like schedutil or powersave)

use Rootify, select the CPU tab located at the top then change it.

ok so it does work when i change the cpu govenor, but the only option that actually works is 'powersave' (as well as 'userspace'). all the other ones still sets it to 2GHz. 'userspace' seems to have a somewhat of an improvement but it's only setting everything to a constant value. is there a way have it set to balanced mode?

powersave forces the processor to work in the lowest frequency availible, thus consuming less power.
userspace allows the app to set the CPU frequency whatever it wants. This isn't supposed to be used in Android since changing CPU speed thorough an app is super uncommon.
Others like ondemand normally keep the power low but starts using the higher frequencies if a processor intensive app is launched.
You can learn which governors do what in this post so you can set the most suitable one for you.
