Hi, i have very strange problem since 6 months. When the phone CPU is set to its default frequencies (for BIG 2100-800Mhz and LITTLE 1500-400) cpu temp rises up to 75 degrees celsius without doing anything like playing games or browsing, then freezes and starts rebooting every second. The only solution ive found to prevent the reboots is to set up the cpu to 1200-400mhz for BIG and LITTLE, but the phone goes very slow. Is there any fix or it's a hardware problem and the motherboard must be replaced ? Thanks.

A good solution is to flash the stock firmware again without install any kernel on it. Try to see if this helps. Have you change any governor ? When this started ?

I am on stock kernel and firmware(7.0) with root and governor is userspace. Only this method helps. I've noticed something that in recovery or download mode the phone doesn't restart. So i think that the problem could be a corrupted file or something like that but i don't know how to repair it.
