Since installing this mod in my pixel 6 the phone temp. Is always above 30 c & the phone is always warm & battery drains so fast, how can i properly uninstall this mod

The one with test in its name, always above 30 c idle & in use, the phone is warm
Phone being 5 °C warmer than your Ambient temperature is pretty normal . As long as your battery temperature isn't higher than 40 °C you are fine . Still if you want to revert back to stock you can just simply remove the module from magisk . There won't any issues.

Does anyone knows if theres any tg group or something to work on this mod?? or if there would be more releases?
Thx :)

You know it's funny, I was on TG a couple days after this was released and saw some douchebag steal it, rebrand it, and present it as their own work. But to answer your question, setting that aside, not that I know of lol.

I made some changes to thermal file to fix charging throttling as well . Now charging won't get throttled because of temperature. Phone charges at full speed regardless of temperature I also made TEST file to disable throttling related to TJmax . Let me know if there are any issues.

Thanks! I'm excited to use this and be able to actually charge my phone in higher ambient temps instead of it basically stopping charging once battery temp reaches 40c. I don't care if it wears out quicker. I already take precautions to only charge to 80% most of the time and am using CleanSlate battery saver level 3 which reduces max CPU freq to keep temps down some. Even with the battery saver the phone would still sometimes get too hot and throttle CPU freqs even lower, which it shouldn't do anymore.

Would you please explain in more detail what further changes you've made from the original mod by @JohnTheFarm3r ?

Also what exactly is the difference between your 2 files here, TEST and non-TEST? What do you mean you removed TJmax throttling? I thought that's done internally by the SOC at 90c.

wouldn't disabling tjmax throttling allow the phone to melt itself

@Mahbubur Rahman Siam did you delete your modified files? I started getting some freezes and reboots using your non-TEST mod. I am going to look into the file differences between stock, the original mod and your mod and see what may have happened. I liked that you also removed limits on the charging, which I actually need more than the performance increase.

我对发热文件进行了一些修改以修复充电流问题。现在充电不会因为温度而受到限制。不管温度如何,手机都会全速充电我还制作了TEST文件以禁止使用与TJmax相关的节流。如果有任何问题,请告诉我

Can you post the two modified files again? I can't see the attachment🥲

Fixed a stuttering issue I had on a custom ROM. Was half a degree above the thermal throttle start causing drop to 60 hz, all seems to work fine now.

Has this been tried on the Android 14 beta? I've experience a shutdown because of the thermal throttle, and there doesn't seem to be a huge amount of slack between the phone's temperature while being in a trouser pocket and the throttles kicking in leading to bluetooth audio stutters.

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    A small modification for you with great and HOT results.


    Changes I made to the thermal configuration:

    -The default Virtual-SKIN-based throttling threshold was starting at 39 Celsius, that was removed and the "first" threshold value is now 55 Celsius (at 55C it will HARD throttle, throttling is not completely eliminated here on purpose and at 55C it will behave the same as the default throttling mechanism at that temperature).

    Keep in mind that SOC will throttle regardless of when it hits its own TjMax values so you don't need to worry about any "meltdown". lol

    - Display won't switch to 60Hz anymore and neither will the maximal possible brightness be reduced as it is normally happening with stock throttling thresholds.

    So far I'm using this on EvoX ROM but this should work basically on ANY ROM as the throttling is relying on the same file and as far as I managed to observe (amount of ROMs checked out) it's the same on those ROMs.



    Pros:

    - Throttling thresholds are drastically increased, meaning if you experienced any HIGH FPS drops during playing any "heavy" games, this will prevent that from happening to an extent and time.
    - Any apps that rely on high processing power, will have more space and time to work without being affected by thermal throttling


    Cons:

    - Depending on your usage and what exactly you do on your phone, the device could get uncomfortably warm in your hands, and battery temperature will raise MORE than you got used to it since the SOC won't be throttled that fast as it does on the stock. Keep in mind that high battery temps are not healthy, and they will cause faster degradation. Degradation occurs anyways, the question is only how fast based on the temps the battery is being exposed to. Many OEMs allow such temps, so, Pixel 7 series with this mod isn't anything different compared to them.

    - If you're a heavy "gamer" and play some games like Genshin, TOF, COD (at 120fps), etc... (you'll have a smoother experience (less FPS drops) based on slower/weaker throttling) but I recommend always using a Peltier cooler to keep that battery and the device as cool as possible (regardless if this phone or another).



    Why did I create this mod?

    I personally use an app called MotionCam Pro. It's basically a RAW video recording app that relies on HIGH processing power (it records RAW DNG frames) and it heats up the device pretty fast, well, Pixel 6/Pro hits the throttling threshold really fast and it's causing the recording to drop A LOT of frames to a point that the footage recorded is not "usable".

    With this mod, I can now shoot RAW videos for longer periods with almost no dropped frames and under higher ambient temps. Yes, the phone warms up much more, but it does the JOB for me and that's all that matters to me anyway. I don't care if I'll need to replace my battery after 1 year instead of 2 years because I lost maybe 15-20% of the battery capacity (I upgrade my phones almost yearly).

    Have fun frying eggs on your phone. :giggle:



    Installation

    - Flash via Magisk
    - Reboot your device
    - Enjoy

    This module increased the performance of pixel 6 pro by 25 % in the same temperature. Previously within 1/2min cpu would get 150-165k GIPS but after flashing module performance is stable around 200-220k GIPS . But the X1 cores aren't still being utilized to their fullest . It's still being limited to 1.5 Ghz even thou it can reach 2.8 Ghz . It there a way to tweak the module to completely remove this throttling at such low temperatures ? Even the awful snapdragon 888 doesn't even begin throttling before 40 °C

    No, because the prime core is probably hitting the TJMax, hence it's throttling down. AFAIK, TjMax on Tensor G1 is set at 90c.

    The cooling design inside the Pixel devices can't handle too much heat (thermal capacity is weak) so it's normal behavior for the CPU to scale down the frequencies based on the temperature limit on the CPU.

    Also, don't mix the battery temps with the CPU temps. CPU reaches temperatures up to 90c on G1.

    Also, even the 888 throttles when it hits the TJMax. That's completely normal throttling behavior to protect the chip from cooking up.

    Keep in mind that this is a TEST MOD because I don't own the device and can't test it myself.

    Feedback is appreciated.

    Would love to have one where it throttles MORE to keep device cooler for those who don't want more heat, basically the opposite of what you already have
