Take it to QC and OP, I don't sell phones neither I make client support.
That tends to be paid it seems.
You mean the change that introduces heat and battery drop and it was reverted not long ago? And from what I read is not consensual at all?
C'mon, enough of this mumbo jumbo already.
You guys can paint it all you want, no matter what you do, it's a loose loose situation with this SoC the way is set on this device. Period.
Disable the mitigation in place, you got the performance for a bit until device starts to heat up like a furnace (already has a tendency to do it even throttled down lol) and battery soon goes bye bye.
And if users start coming down in a couple months complaining about silicon degradation, are you the one to provide new phones to them?
People have to be careful with these things. If other projects want to take another path it's up to them, that's why the code is open source.
And it's funny you mention the S21, since there's people complaining about battery not being on par with other S iterations and having a tendency to heat up more than usual.
So much that Samsung is probably bringing back vapor chamber to their lineup which is not present on the S21
According to a new report, Samsung is considering reintroducing vapor chamber cooling technoology to its smartphones in 2022.

Although some devices behave better than others, there is not a single review with snap 888 I checked that doesn't mention the "device has a tendency to heat up" and the "battery isn't grat"... "but it's ok because snap 888 is a power house".
I read crap like this more than once. Like the 865 wasn't a powerhouse that was perfectly powerful and efficient lol.
People may accept what I have to say or not, but that isn't going to change technical (and historical) facts. I'm done with loosing time to this topic.
The problem isn't OP throttling down the device, the problem is that they needed to do that stuff to have a workable device in the first place.
If people can't understand this, I rest my case. There's plenty of threads in which people can't vent all they want, I suggest you guys use that ones and don't clutter this topic again.
TLDR: I will not change anything related to power management on this device. Want to know why, read the rest before lol. The end.
