Decreasing temperature, saving battery



Some people don't like how warm the phonne gets. This can be tweaked with the thermal-engine.conf located in system/etc (requires root). Just edit the file with a text editor.

This is the throttle temperature for the big cluster

Code:


[SS-SKIN-XO-THERM-PERF]
set_point      43000
set_point_clr        37000


Hotplug CPU4

Code:


[CPU4_HOTPLUG_MONITOR]
thresholds        42000
thresholds_clr        37000


CPU5

Code:


[CPU5_HOTPLUG_MONITOR]
thresholds        45000
thresholds_clr        40000


Little cluster

Code:


[SS-SKIN-XO-THERM-POWER]
set_point        48000
set_point_clr  40000


GPU

Code:


[GPU_management]
thresholds      40000  43000  47000  50000
thresholds_clr  37000        40000        43000        47000


battery, this reduces the charging current at the specified temperature

Code:


[MONITOR_QUIET_THERM_BATTERY]
thresholds        38000        40000        42000        44000
thresholds_clr        35000        38000        40000        42000


All other values I would leave at standard. I'm actually not quite sure what they do. Some influence sensor polling rate others something unknown.

If you think your phone gets too hot you can lower all the blue values by 2-4°C. This should be a good compromise between heat and performance. Once you are done, save the file and restart.
