I have the latest version of ElementalX installed on my Nexus 6P (1.18) and the latest version of the Kernel Manager and I am having an issue with setting the max CPU speed on cluster 2. No matter which profile I use, usually Ghost Pepper, it won't let me increase the max CPU speed higher than 1824Mhz, which lower than stock if I'm not mistaken. Sometimes it will stick, but then ends up back at 1824 after a little while. Apply is boot is always enabled. I have reinstalled the Kernel Manager, reflashed the Kernel.
Anyone else have this issue or know what might be causing it?
Thanks!
I have the same problem. I'm not sure what the cause is. Bit happens even running different kernels using EKM but I can set it using other kernel apps.

Hi all, not sure how to address this, but my battery's been a little crappy lately. I downloaded SETCPU after not using it for ages, and I noticed when i set it that my CPU seemed stuck on the fastest speed. Downloaded SeeCPU and confirmed. So though my min-max is set at 245-986, it's always on 986.
I'm using Kushdeck’s latest w/ the stock kernel (which is the cyanogen kernel), and I even went so far as to wipe all data and re-flash everything...still no luck. Any ideas on how to proceed?
Did you disable the perf-lock in setcpu?
We're comin from a pure power source.
Yes, perflock is disabled. I can lower the cpu speed, but it wont scale. So the default is 998, and typically I'd set the min/max at 245/998. I noticed that the CPU was always at 998, it never scaled down. Now I have the min/max set at 768/245 and it's always on 768. If perflock were disabled I thought I wouldn't be able to change the speed at all, though I may be wrong there...I also tried the perf unlocker in setcpu and it reports that it is already unlocked.
At this point I wiped data, cache, and Dalvik. Re-flashed the rom (deck's aosp rom) , stock kernel, practically no apps installed except setcpu and seePU to monitor usage.
Oh and the governor is the default, I think interactive...
Try another governor like conservative and see. After that I'd try another kernel or download the stock one again in case something is buggered in yours

Thanks already tried a different governor, tried a tiamat kernel, then said screw it and reinstalled the rom from scratch. Still having the same issue. I may go back to a sense rom to see of that makes a difference.
Hi, I know and understand what problem you're having. I had this on my desire. Run a ruu or flash a pb99img. The problem only happens on non sense roms. This is the only solution to make non sense roms work. Just try it. Good luck!

I ended up flashing back to Myn 2.2 (which is Sense) and it started working again. Thanks!
I tried to search for a thread relating to this but couldn't find anything, if anyone knows of one a link would be appreciated.
OK, so I flashed Motleys kernel 2 days ago. Everything was running fine, I had it OC'd to 1.6 and it was super fast and smooth. I had set the governor to "on-demand" to try and save some battery life(over "performance"), and also because it seemed like the CPU would run at full 1.6 constantly if it was set to performance (I don't know if that's how it should be or not, but this isn't the issue). I used System Tuner to OC it like he recommended in his thread.
Yesterday I set it to performance to run some benchmarks, and then continued using it on performance to see how it felt. About an hour and a half later I also started messing with my home screen and apps and ended up accidentally using Quick Boot to take me to the bootloader. After powering it back on I checked System Tuner to set the governor and once I did I noticed, according to System Tuner, that 2-4 of the cores are running at full 1.6 and the CPU usage is from 25%-100% even though I have nothing open.
I flashed my recovery via Clockworkmod Recovery, Motleys kernel is now replaced by the stock kernel, however I'm still having the same issue, but just at 1.3. Any idea why the CPU is running so high, for apparently no reason?
.....
OK, so I just checked System Tuner again and the CPU doesn't seem to be doing as bad now, but it's still all over the place and I don't have anything else open. Here are the times:
Offline - 77%
340MHz -11%
475Mhz 1%
1.2Ghz - 5%
1.3Ghz - 1%
Compared to yesterday when it had said 1.3GHz 79% or something like that (and was running nothing but system tuner).
So, yeah, that does seem a lot better but one thing remains; the CPU usage still jumps up to almost 50% and once again, I am running nothing but System Tuner, so something still doesn't feel right.
I think ondemand governor is causing the CPU to shoot up so often and quickly.(That's all I can think of.) I always use interactive and it's usually the preferred governor. Ondemand is more for people who play lots of games and they need the extra boost. If you game a lot then I guess you should still to it.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for reading this . As specified above, my phone has a rather serious problem of overheating. To try and reslove the issue I tried modifying the CPU frequency, to set it low enough. And a very bizarre thing just happend.
Opening Kernel Adiutor, I saw that 4 out of my 8 cores (the 2.5 ones) were running normally. No overclock, stock settings, stock governor and so on. The issue seems to be in the other 4 (the 2.3 ones). Both the minimum and highest frequency allowed is set up to the same parameter (1556 mHz), forcing it to stay at maximum clock all the time. I tried modyfing via Kernel Adiutor the settings, lowering the minimum frequency allowed to stock one (which should be around 300 or something), but it had no effects: it immediatly comes back to 1556 and just won't come down.
All of this started happening after i removed Franco Kernel from my system, flashing another ROM (Chroma) with a different kernel altogether. I'm currently on Cataclysm ROM and after doing a clean install, formatting internal storage as well as every other partition, i couldn't resolve the issue. Moreover, Kernel Adiutor sometimes won't even show my CPU settings, stuck on an infinite loading. If anyone could help me, it would be much appreciated. It's really important. I'm by no means Android expert but i do have a rather basic understanding of ADB and so on.
Thanks a lot for your time.

I used to own a n7 and that allowed me to set min and max freq. with apps fine but i am also seeing this on my 6p, i don't notice any "overheating" although it may be due to me being used to it always running hot since i run a lot of heavier programs and also you know... SD810 but i guess it does the frequency thing as a way that frequency is actually controlled on this platform or something, because it sticks fine to the limits you set while flashing a kernel but no app can get it to stick. Then again this is just me sharing my experience with it as it is my first phone with this platform, so maybe someone who knows more about this could offer some help.

Thanks anyway, i really appreciate it!
I'm using CM13 2016-10-13 and Kernel Adiutor, and I can't change the CPU minimum frequency. It's at 1881 MHz and when I try to set it lower, it changes for a fraction of a second, then back to 1881.
There's very little abot this on the internet. Some blame MPDecision but this problem happens even with MPDecision turned off. I also tried turning off CPU boost.
I tried it with CM13's original kernel, an unofficial boeffla kernel for g900v, and the official boeffla for g900f.
Any ideas?
I want to report that the issue goes away when I disable "VDD control" in "thermal" options in Kernel Adiutor. No idea why.
I have problem on my OP 8 Pro, I no can set in Franco Manager kernel minimi frequently for little core 300, the same change to 1000? Does anyone have any idea what causes this effect? I no used any app to boost phone... After reboot is normal, i can set 300. Help?
Any advice?
So depending on what kernel you're on it may reset or the settings could be forced.
So EX allows me to go to 300 and stay there, also allows me to lower the max to 100MHz lower. (no performance hit, much cooler phone)
So my advice would be ask in the kernel thread, chances are it's forced to be at 1GHz as Is stock

Ok, I understand, but I restart phone and its normal, I can set 300, after a few hours, I set 300, the same set 1000...
Testing 3 kernels.
