Hello guys. i am Kia as you can see.I bought g3 beacuse i want to record some rom reviews and tutorials for it. I previously had lg g2 and i had no any issues and then i bought xperia z3 and i didnt like it much. After that i bought lg g3. Ye, awesome phone but i experience sometimes throttling (sorry if i misspelled) (cant use 100 percent of brightness etc. .). Also today i was watching some videos and multitasking (for about 30-45 mins) and then i downloaded antutu benchmark just to see what score i will have. Then i runned test and i got just 25k?! I was like wtf.... (temp was about 66 ,maybe a bit more, celsius, it wasnt bad) and i putted away phone and after 30 mins i runned test again, i got 40k (is that normal score for g3, im bored of searching....) and temp there was like my idle 57-60 (at 60% brightness). I just dont know was that some kind of error or that was some hardware throttling or what? (due to overheat or what?)
Should i worry about my temperatures? What are yours idle and full load temps?
Thanks for any answer
Hi Kia,
Yes youre right when the device gets too hot,it throttles to save the core components from further damage. Also dont worry about benchmarks too much. In the words of Chainfire, they arent that vital. What matters is th performance of the phone on day to day tasks.
Can you do me a favor? Install the app for specs called Hardware Info https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dama.hardwareinfo&hl=en
and post a screeenshot of the Display,Processor,Back Camera and Sensors.
Thanx

Thanks for your reply,
Guys, what are normal (idle) g3 temperatures? And what are full load, I think I should send my phone on warranty? I get 55-60 idle and 70 full load? (CPU temps)
I'm planning to buy s20 Exynos version mobile. I am aware that it had heating issue and battery drain issue when it was launched but I found online reveiws that it was fixed by recent firmware update.
Can you guys please tell me whether it was fixed? How is the battery backup now? Does heating problem solved?
Your answers will help me to take a good decision.
Thanks

As 2 month s20 Exynos user i can say - it depends. Antennas are either poor or the networking optimization is **** - i have weaker phone signal with the S20 than with my old mate 20 pro. Yes if you live and work in a area with good 4g/wifi you will not have this problem( at home i get about 20-24h usage per charge and 5-6h sot), if not you might experience severe battery drain ( at work where my network coverage is **** i have 5-8% stand-by drain, which i did not have with my mate 20 pro). Now it is really hot in Belgium so the phone is hot, but if the weather is normal it will only get hot when you use it a lot( i made it hit 40 degrees when i was taking pictures for about 2h straight), other than this no excessive overheating. It is a good phone, i really like it, but the battery drain and the need to charge 20-40% at work so i will last the day is not okay. I can only hope updates will improve this but if not i'd recommend basically any other non samaung phone if you live/work in poor coverage areas( at work a college with an iphone has 0 problems and have finished the day with 80% battery left, he is on the same network).

Thanks for your feedback. I'm expecting more user feedbacks.
Any other feedbacks please? I'm expecting more users feedback
After reading so many reviews on the internet and having experienced Exynos on my former S8, I went with the Snapdragon9810 variant from Hongkong at the risk of warranty issues etc.
But I must tell you, so far this phone has been giving me consistent battery life, performance. No signal issues, VOLTE ,VOWIFI works seamlessly. Haven't had the chance to try the 5G since 5G is not availability is very limited in my country.
No heating issues at all. Used for extended periods on the first few days out of excitement, yet felt nothing compared to former Exynos.
Only disappointment for me so far had been native call recording is disabled and eSIM support is also disabled. Both of which could have been regulars for me if they were available.
So I'd like to suggest you, reevaluate your options and never settle with a half baked exynos.
Good luck!!
In india they sell Exynos version only. I could not buy Snapdragon version. That's the problem here. I still prefer buying Exynos but I would like to know the battery performance
After a week using S20 plus 5G (coming from S8plus) I must say the heating problem exists. My s8+ never heated that much! And not that I'm doing god knows what with the phone, just standard suage - Faceboo, messenger, news app, mail....

What firmware are you on? I am here on atg9 and doesnt seem to have any of your problems?
July 1st update, ATG4 I suppose.

Using Exynos version of S20+ for about 3 months. Yes the phone occasionally get hot once or twice a week.. Battery backup is decent getting 5-7 hours of SOT. I don't play heavy games like PUBG, just play some lite games. but phone become warm while using camera app for extensive time. If you play heavy games go for oneplus but camera & display is better in s20 than op8pro. Lastly if you are not a gamer you will definitely enjoy s20 exynos.
General use I find it is ok but using Android Auto it gets ridiculously hot, yesterday it was 50c according to CPU Monitor app
I feel like the 888 chip might be pretty hot in this device. Samsung S21 Ultra got lower benchmark scores so they must have wisely reduced the turbo frequency of the 888 in that device to prevent overheating problems.
Recording of 1080p60 video for me stopped after 25 minutes due to heat, and while playing Genshin Impact the phone's screen got painfully hot. During setup the phone shut down wifi twice while transferring with OP Switch due to heat.
Seriously thinking of returning the phone at this point. Anyone else having these problems? Should I return? I don't trust that OnePlus is going to fix this with a software update, and my return window ends in 2 days...
For reference: My Pixel 3 XL idles at 25C and this OP9P idles at around 30C
From what I can tell, overheating happens when extended loads are placed on the X1, and as a result, it clocks max/close to max freqs for much longer than it was designed to sustain.
Instead, most of the load should be being ran on the 3 middle A78 cores, as they are plenty capable enough to run most intensive tasks anyways.
Updates, but more specifically: improvements to the cpu scheduler/logic I believe should remedy these issues

I wonder if one could potentially try to test a fix out using kernel modifications. I have EX Kernel Manager and have been tempted to mess around
There's an update coming out to fix the overheating :
[Update: v11.2.3.3] OnePlus says it's working on a fix for the OnePlus 9 Pro's overheating issues
Several OnePlus 9 Pro users have reported facing unusual overheating issues with the device. OnePlus is aware of the problem and is working on a fix.

When you're running v11.2.3.3, it already should be fixed. Luckely, I never had any overheating issue's, not even with the previous versions.
When I'm in my car during with the AC off andmessing around with the phone I'll get the temperature too high .message every time. Otherwise it definitely gets hot while playing games but doesn't bother me, as long as it still functions.
Update can't be soon enough...

The update is released... At least in India and Europe.
I've noticed some overheating after installing 11.2.3.3 so YMMV.
From the article it says there will be a *second* OTA following 11.2.3.3 addressing battery/device temperature.
i have Chinese version of OP9 Pro running with ColorOS and honestly it's really Good and don't have any issues
Hey everyone, as I said! This is my E2E review based on my intensive testing for the past 5 days!
1. Performance:
Pretty much the same, and in certain circumstances, the performance on games is much more fluid compared to the previous version of the OS.
2. Battery:
BEST! Getting 6 hours of SOT (Refresh rate 120hz always) and 1440p. Usage - FB, Watsapp, telegram, gaming (Asphalt, PES, Genshin impact, etc.,)
3. BUGS / ISSUES
A lot! : "D Seriously! The first preliminary update was such dumb! loads and loads of issues - Phone gets changes during call, need to hard reset in some situations. Music player issues, face unlocking issues. But, most of the issues were addressed on the next update (730MB) and it's alright now. Still, there is a wired notification bug with hanging icons.

Did check some benchmarks after the update , in antutu it cross 86k . Seems like they really improved with the update. The issues i felt is that, lock icon is missing on lockscren, gallery , navbar has dpi issues( this is only in QHD. So i feel they need to align things in QHD resolution). Other than that build is stable AF, i dint face music player bug, notification bug. I dont use faceunlock so no idea. Very nice, they head heard our feedbacks. They even replied regarding gcam. Seems like oplus is not fully oppo. I think in a month or so, if they go in this pace, oos 12 will be a solid update for 9 series.
I get also 6h SOT, but not sure it's good enough..Pixel 6 get about 9h SOT

I got 7.5 with first cycle in OOS 12 C39, its too early . Not media this time, it was heavy use. Btw my friends has PIxel 6 pro, which has ****ty battery ever, hardly gets 5 hrs on QHD. 6 you said is on 90hz and FHD, you cant compare with higher spec device. We cant get more than 8 hrs on QHD 120hz device with 4.5k mah battery. 8.5 is possible not more than that. Main thing i hate in the new pixel is its processor ( renamed exynos).

I think its too early, maybe afte few cycles, battery life is getting lit. Today i was surprised to get 7.5 sot on QHD in heavy usage without gaming, so this is first cycle. Maybe after 3 it may get better and better

I can't believe you don't see font size issues. It seems you use your phone with standard dpi. I pteffer dpi 500. The problem is some apps and parts of the system ignore dpi settings and still ugly large font is used. And dpi set in developer settings is reverted to default after reboot.
I can't understand how anybody can use so large screen with default dpi, unless you are blind and you need large text.
It's blocking issue in my case. I will never install system where I can't set small fonts. It's actually built in Android feature, shame they wish to break it. Either they fix that (I don't think so), or I will stay on Oxygen 11 and will eventually use LineageOS if I decide to switch to Android 12
At this point and given what oneplus has done to Android 12, I will seriously be considering if Oneplus is still a brand I want to buy, CrapOOS12 is a disaster
I've been on custom ROM's ever since I bought T-Mobile Exhibit 4g used up until 8 pro & 9 pro.
Oxygen Os with a few tweaks had everything I needed, and now with no Oxygen Os anymore
I guess back to custom ROMs and hopefully source will stay updated.
hello! ever since i installed crdroid 9 on my RN8P the phone felt slightly warmer to the touch compared to when i was in MIUI
i've read around google n stuff and people say cpu temps above 40C on idle (or while not doing anything too intensive like gaming) isnt normal, and im starting to get a lil bit worried.
could these temps affect my phone's lifespan?

after updating to crdroid 9.4 the problem is gone! also i ended up thinking that it was cpu-z getting the thermals wrong
