I can set it as high as 1646. IV looked around and it seems that people use 1504. Is it unsafe to go any higher?

1400 is safest I run Alexandra iii
if you go up to 1.6 GHZ, you might get SHUTDOWNS...
if you don't run any games, or apps, sure it will work. But not smart to overload it.
If on Custm ROM, Read DEV Notes, usually they'll say (or mention about Kernel changing)
as a rule I keep it on 1.5 Ghz (when 1.6 was max) (have tested on about 8-10 diff roms) (never have had any shutdowns yet)
*** also maybe use a meter app to check TEMPS (like battery TEMP)
Cool Tool - shows battery temp, RAM, Proc Freq, + more in little box on screen all the time (adjust settings)
https://market.android.com/details?id=ds.cpuoverlay
"setCPU for Root users" - underclock to lowest when off, set lower cpu freq if battery gets warmed to ur custom Degrees)
http://www.setcpu.com/
***Some custom ROM's have thier own Freq CONTROLER app (that could clash with prog or have 2 progs do the same thing)
Like humans NO TWO CPU's are equal
All of the above it true with one exception..NOT every cpu is created equal Not all ram chips and so on also live up to this..
Start over clocking your cpu slowly. as you push clocks higher of course lower voltage. This keeps heat down .
Two processors even made on the same casting can be totally different . Where one will take more heat with less errors and corruption and the die next to it will almost crash running its designed clock speeds . Being that extreme is very rare with a few exceptions. most are close as to a common ability. within a few 100 mhz.
So the answer is there is NO TRUE Answer. its trial and error but on the side of caution and testing clock speeds and heat is not a 30 second yes it runs. Do it over a week or so. I know with my dragon cup in cell phone its at its end of life from being over clocked for a few years. some last longer some die quicker.. Its kinda like drinking on your brain the more you drink the more cells you kill.. The hotter your cpu gets the more transistors fail the slower it becomes the more errors you have .
Relax .. go slow.do not expect to get what everyone else is claiming. and you will be fine..
Sorry again for long winded post..

Any is unsafe. Higher speed equals heat and heat kills semiconductors. Might work for a while but why risk it
My daughters has been running at 1.6GHz for 2.5 months without any crashing or blowing up.
I say at 1.6, you're starting to enter the "red zone", sort of asking for problems. Why go up that high? I mean, 1.5 shows enough performance improvement over the 1GHz...
According to the System Tuner app, my CPU went up to 75 degrees Celsius while I was playing a track on Google Earth. I was running Earth for only a few minutes before it reached 75. I'm not sure if that's the peak yet...maybe it can go even higher.
I've seen several other threads about heat, but most people talk about 50s and 60s. Anyone reach 75C? The front and back of the phone, the top around the camera, were both very hot. It was almost uncomfortable to touch.
Again, I'm talking about 75 Celsius, not Fahrenheit. And I'm referring to CPU temperature according to System Tuner app, not battery temp. Anyone reach this?
picture plz.
the reason is bc someone did a stress test on the N4 and found that the device shuts down at ~57-59C (correct me if im wrong) to prevent damage to the hardware.
Edit: found the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=koLJ4BU9tgc
75ºC on a quad core?
I thought it was supposed to be more efficient than a dual core... 167ºF just seems like it's way hotter than any electronic device should ever be.

My first gaming laptop was an ASUS Republic of Game first generation. They did a horrible job cooling the machine. During the 2 months before the machine failed, the GPU would reaches 110 - 140 C if I played games (then, of course, the machine turned the GPU off and still ran as everything else was still about 70-80 C)
When the machine did fail, I opened it up, and found 2 fried thermal unit, a fried GPU and a nearly fried HDD) Amazingly, the machine stills runs, as long as I don't load GPU driver
Well, that's the story. Back to OP, as you see, if the temp is too high, you device can be literally fried. So if you turn off the thermal throttle, please enable it back on and do you best to keep your device cool
I tried to replicate just now and could only go up to 63c. I don't want to keep trying based on the comments here so far. If it happens again I'll be sure to get a screen shot and be aware of what's running.
Where would the thermal throttle toggle exist, if I have the capability at all? I'm running faux123 kernel and use trickster mod and trinity kernel tools for tweaking. I don't see anything about throttle control.
On a similar note, faux123 seems to default to 1ghz minimum cpu frequency. Does that seem right? I've flashed lots of kernels before on previous phones and they always default to the lowest value. When I force the setting down to 384mhz, it automatically changes back to 1024mhz the next time I go in my tool apps. Does this seem normal?

I haven't seen a Nexus 4 kernel that has thermal throttle toggle, or have it disabled yet. I am just checking if you're running one that I am not aware of

Minimum cpu frequency enforced by kernel is normal. I am not certain if faux123 default to 1 ghz min, but if it's the case, it seems weird for me too. Definitely not good for the battery. If there's no other CPU control apps, I recommend double check the settings, then find an update for faux123, or use trinity kernel
I just flashed a new kernel and my minimum cpu now seems more normal. I hopefully that alleviates the crazy temperatures too.
I'll try to test again tomorrow to see if my temps still go bonkers. It's time to sleep now. Thanks for the help, everyone.
As we all know, the Snapdragon 810 processor in our OnePlus 2 phones is prone to overheat, especially during heavy tasks such as gaming. With the stock kernel (which probably most of you are using) this leads to the A57 cores being partially or fully shut down and the display - which generates additional heat - being dimmed in order for the phone to keep a healthy temperature (healthy for both its components and the hands that are holding it.) This, in turn, leads to lag when playing especially demanding games. Which in turn leads to a frustrated user.
With root access, it's possible to use custom kernels and/or custom thermal throttling profiles in order to (at least partially) circumvent these issues, by throttling the CPU frequency and/or limiting the number of active cores, using different schedulers and governors, and by applying thermal profiles that allow the phone to get hotter (in order to keep higher CPU frequencies for a longer duration).
Since I bought the OPT, I was playing a very power hungry game - Republique - which, at its highest graphics quality setting, pushes the phone to its limits. I quickly switched from the stock kernel to the Boeffla kernel and started experimenting with schedulers, governors, hotplugging settings, CPU/GPU frequencies and thermal profiles, but nothing I have done so far makes it possible to play the game for more than 15-20 minutes before some kind of throttling / heat control sets in and the game starts lagging.
I tried limiting both CPU clusters to only 2 cores while maintaining higher frequencies, I tried throttling the frequencies and keeping all 8 cores active, and I tried all kinds of solutions in-between with anything from 4-8 cores active and frequencies anywhere between 60% and 100%. I also tried the various thermal profiles that the kernel offers. But whatever I did, the game was either lagging right from the start, or running smoothly for about 15 minutes before the screen was dimmed and the CPU was throttled, leading to a laggy experience.
So my question is, what do you guys do to keep the OnePlus 2 from overheating during gaming, while at the same time maintaining a lag-free experience? I don't seem to get anywhere with anything I try, so I'd be extremely grateful for some useful input.

All the phones throttle while gaming. I use thermal extreme with boeffla kernel. And use 2 a53 at 1,3ghz and 2-4 a57 at 1,4ghz and I modified the throttle file and it underclock to 1,2ghz when it gets hot but it doesn't happen if you don't play longer than 30minutes and it doesn't lag either. You can leave stock settings but if course it will get hot quicker. Also with thermal hotplugged or something like that, I used it all cores online all the time at full speed and it doesn't throttle for a long time, so I don't know what overheating are you talking about. My nexus 5 throttle faster and disable 2 of 4 cores and leave the other 2 at half speed, and our processor overheats?. Oneplus throttle the device a lot because of the rumors, fortunately we can change that. Try what I said, cheers.

Thanks for the tip with thermal extreme! The implementation in the latest Boeffla kernel v1.1 beta1 seem to do a very good job of not letting the phone get too hot while at the same time not throttling the CPU too much. Today, the performance was stable for almost 30 minutes of gaming, and when I checked the CPU stats I saw that all cores were still active (2x A53 + 4x A57), and only throttled to 960 MHz. This still delivered enough performance. (I started the game with both CPU clusters at 1.2 GHz, so this also seemed to help with keeping the phone at an acceptable temperature. I'm sure it would've gotten much hotter much quicker at higher CPU frequencies.)
I have to admit though, I was playing inside in an unlit room and thus the screen wasn't at max. brightness. We'll see how it will perform during my next work break when I have to make the screen much brighter.

Does it throttle to 960mhz? for me never reach 1,2ghz. Playing real Racing for 30min it stays at 1,2ghz. And with thermal hotplugged (all cores enabled, all at stock freq gpu too) it doesnt throttle for 30 min, gpu only sometimes to 510mhz, i played 30 minutes and it didnt throttle, i dont know when it was going to throttle because i stop playing. But also, gaming with all cores and no throttling eats the battery.

I guess it throttled to 960 MHz because the game I'm currently playing (République) is pretty resource hungry.
Devs,
The performance of le 2 is very bad when it comes to gaming.
It is the same in every stock eui to miui and all lineage os ROMs like AICP which uses lineage is kernel.
As per my finding this is due to severe thermal throttling in eui as well as in lineage os 13 and 14.1.
Firstly the two A72 CORES don't run while any task making it like SD 650 and clock go soo down at reaching 34° to 35°c and at above temp all A72 CORES ARE DOWN in lineage is and only one works in stock eui, same goes with GPU under clocking starts at 32°c making gaming experience horrible,
Even kernel auditor don't have any control in any of the ROMs and in lineage is 14.1 27 Feb build it is told it have core control but it can make all A72 cores run couldn't control clock speeds and result is the same ,
So I request devs please make a kernel from scrap and don't take hints from eui kernel and give us good gaming experience.
Thank you

My findings were exactly same as yours, the cpu and gpu, both are underclocking for even slightest of temperature rise. This is bad, but the good news is, I figured out a way, by which we can disable this poorly configured thermal throtling.
Delete this file here: /system/etc/thermal-engine-s2.conf
I don't know it it is safe or not, but I have been gaming with my device after deleting this file for about 10 days and there is no explosions yet. Hahaha.
Also, if you want, instead of deleting this file, you can modify some parameters so that, it starts throttling after some really high temperatures, instead of current values, but I like deleting that file because some thermal throtlling algorthm is always embedded in soc anyways.

See your findings are correct but I myself renamed thermal config s2 but it didnot have any effect and at 33 ° I can see GPU under clocked at 432 MHz and CPU under clocks itself , and at 35° the lagging in games can be seen easily
Will try deleting the file also ,hoping it can have any effect

My cpu temp have gone over 60°c but I haven't seen any throttling in cpu or gpu. But when, that file was present, those temperatures were never reached because of thermal throttling.

At first, I thought the same. But yesterday, i have played asphalt 8 in bright sunlight(to test if there is some thermal throttling left embedded in soc). And I was right, it throttles down the gpu, big cores, small cores, even some cores went offline automatically. After the device was cooled, everything wqs back to normal. So, IMO, there is no harm even if we play in extreme conditions with the file deleted, thermal throttling will kick in when its needed. Although, I advise modifying the file to others. Hahaha

Thermal throttling happens even in the best chips. Most of the time, it's integrated in the lower level portions of the chip.
Just let it be, really. Thermal throttling is the way of the chip of protecting itself from heat damage. PC processors, for example, shut down when removing the fan and reaching critical temperatures.

Ya true it is present in every chip but optimizing is Also a thing right.
In le 2 the two A72 cores don't run at all above 30°(except when opening apps while it is cool ,so after 33 or 34° they are not used in anything,and 34 is average temp of the phone while using ,that means it just exactly works like a loweclocked SD 650 which even more throttled with each degree rise in temp and at 36 ° ( which is avg temperature while gaming ) phone turns off one more A72 core meaning three A72 cores are off and one a72 is throttle to around 800 mhz and even all a53 cores run at half clock speeds and till that time GPU also reaches below 350mhz and lower a and it impossible to run even minor games like subway surfers lag free,
And since lineage is kernel has taken hint from eui kernel ,it performs exactly the same as stock kernel which leaves us with no choice left.
@codeworkx please look into this issue and please build a kernel for gaming performance as SD 652 is getting wasted due to thermal throttling, @codeworkx I am sure you know this issue better than me ,please find time to work on it.

First i make the soc heat by playing games or running benchmarks, then i open kernel auiditor and check if maximum cpu freq gets lowered or automatically or not. But it doesn't happen after deleting that file. Also, the gameplay seems very fluid then before. I also check for gpu max freq.
Hey, I have Cool 1 (same Soc) and yes, very dissapointed because in second 1 starts the throtling...
I have Kernel auditor. Which settings should I force?
hello, very nice threat.
I had some different experiences.
For me throotling starts slightly at 37° and bigger at 39 or 40 ... this results to throotled big cores at 1248mhz and a gpu to 432
to avoid that I made some underclocking settings which gives my setting antutu score of 69000 instead of 82000 and a geekbench score of 1000/3500 which is giving me cool and fast gaming enough

Hello everyone,
Always i have searched all internet before writing this post.
My LG G6 H870 have strange behaviour.
Actually i am using open oreo v20g installed by TWRP . I have magisk and mk2000 kernel, but tried also Beast , and Marshall. I tried also back to stock with KDZ file.
Problem is that after running CPU Throttling app i can see temperatures and frequency.
After boot it shows sometimes that frequency go to max 2,35 GHz on 2 cores, and 2,18 GHz on other 2. Temperature is 35*C per core. Performance shows at start over 100 GIPS and is going down to 70-80 GIPS.
One moment later, or after Next reboot after running test, cpu frequency go to MAX 1,05 GHz on all cores even temperature is 23*C on cores. It shows 50 GIPS and.
Dry performance test is not problem, but i feeleing a low performance at systemy interface and web browser - its laggy.
Antutu shows below 100 000 points.
I tried kernel adiutor to set frequency, but on any kernel its not possible,becouse if i set frequency itd changes itself after while to random frequency.
Tried to change governor for example Performance, but frequencies never go over 1,3-1,4 GHZ.
Temperatures never go over 40 at idle. Phone body is not.
Do You have any ideas where is the problem and what can i do? Frewuencies are totally random at stress or higher usage of cpu.
Thank You very much
Here's screen shot of test. Straight Green Line is frequency 1,05GHz at testing
I did a full back to stock with LG UP and Uppercut with v20a KDZ firmware. I locked bootloader by Tool all in one, By OTA firmware updated to v20g. Problem gone, everytime i can See over 100 GIPS in test and device seems to work like a charm.
Thanks

It's looks like the problem is with hardware. On stock V20g, and now also on V20h problem still persist. It's totally random. Now i am on locked bootloader, stock kernel and sometimes frequencies locks at 1,05 GHz even if temperature of cores at test start are between 25-30*C on with CPU Throttling test app. Phone still lags sometimes.

You know i noticed something like that too, sometimes the phone runs fine but sometimes I'd be doing some really simple activity and it just heats up and lags and also ram is getting eaten on the stock ROM.

On stock i disabled many stock and system apps with LG Package disabler, and phone never gets Hot. Only when testing or doing heavy tasks. Ram is also normal. I recommend disable bloatware and unused not critical apps.
My problem is that phone can't be even warm when heavy apps are computing.
I didn't found a solution, but i noticed, that is it linked with charger.
When battery is below 50%, cpu clock very fast jumping from 1,05 to 2,34 GHz and then the performance is near 60 GIPS. After connecting charger CPU frequency is stable at 2,34 GHz and throttle is lowering frequency to 1,05 GHz and stay at this frequence even a temperature is low after while. After disconneting charger, frequency is going higher and higher. I attached screenshot when is it visible.
When battery is over 50%, cpu frequency is stable at 2,34 GHz, performance is near 100 GIPS and is lowering with throttle, but when i connect charger, frequencies are unstable and performance falls to 60 GIPS.
In summary, there wasn't problem with kernel, or software. I think there is problem with hardware, but i don't know how to diagnose problem.

I didn't found a solution, but i noticed, that is it linked with charger.
When battery is below 50%, cpu clock very fast jumping from 1,05 to 2,34 GHz and then the performance is near 60 GIPS. After connecting charger CPU frequency is stable at 2,34 GHz and throttle is lowering frequency to 1,05 GHz and stay at this frequence even a temperature is low after while. After disconneting charger, frequency is going higher and higher. I attached screenshot when is it visible.

Yea it's probably your hardware try underclocking the voltage or smthn like that

Thanks for help, but under or overclocking not working. Tried to change clock by max 50mV but without success. I tested more today and problem starts below 70% battery level. It's about 3,8V of battery.
I also tried disable cores. After disabling 1 of 4 cores (no matter which one) clock were jumping from high to low. After disabling 2 of 4 the problem dissapears and clocks are high as it should be, but only on 2 cores. It looks like phone don't have enough power to deliver energy to high intensity SoC usage. I'm going to try dissassemble and assemple motherboard and battery again, maybe connector is not fit good, after sim tray repair.

I don't advise that but go ahead and does this happen on every ROM or no
Any update? My phone does the same. Is this problem battery or thermal related?
