Thermal Throttling in redmi note 7 and how to solve it.

[aishik212]

So once i tried rendering the same video on my rn7 and an asus mp m1 with sd 636.

guess what the sd636 won.

i realised the cpu is being throttled to save battery.

so i took two measurements of the cpu speed wrt time with the help of CPU throttling app with and without miui battery optimisation which is available in the battery saver section of the app info.

here are the results
1)with stock settings

2) without the stock battery settings:

to disable this throttling enable no restrictions on the battery saver option

Here is a battery benchmarking app in case you want to benchmark the battery and compare.

should i choose "no restrictions" for every app ?

should i choose "no restrictions" for every app ?

no only the apps which u need the maximum performance, for example pubg

okay i get it .. thanks man

That's useful to know. Thank you :good:

What app did you use for measurements?
If I want to measure CPU ,first measure with settings that I have now, after that ,go to battery saver and sett all app to no restriction.
I will se the difrence in CPU with and without battery optimization

do share your results here

When I what to took measurements,I first in battery optimization set app to not optimized, after measurements set all app to optimize.

According your measurements ,the phone working better when is apps not optimized,right?

no no this is not the correct step
follow the steps below:
1) open settings
2)manage apps
3) click on the app you want to optimise
4) then click on the battery saver option which is below restrict data usage
5) then click on no restrictions

Ok, I found all this, I use game that I play Empires and puzzles, set to no restriction.
Now open Thermal throttling and start measurements.
When I finish,I go back to game and battery saver set to optimize and then again do measurements.
Then I will see results?
I thought that this app measurements all application..
How app know that I change game to no restriction?

I'm unable to understand what you're saying

Sorry..my English is bad.
You help me with settings and explain how app works.. I will research a little ..and and do measurements.. thanks for help

you open that app

click on the start button and let the rear finish

after it is done you'll see a graph and that graph will tell u wheather the phone is being throttled or not

u cannot check the throttling in any other app or games.

Unfortunately this technique is obsolete now, after the latest update the thermal Throttling issues did increased and it cannot be stopped anymore.

will update if any change happens.

 

[tze_vitamin]

Does it affect the battery life if we'll enable "no restriction" on app battery saver?

 

[kennyk09]

Use game booster. In it, add all the apps to memory exceptions but not the games. This solved my hating problem.

 

[aron11195]

install thermalmodx module, no throttling at all.

 

[The_Wolt]

install thermalmodx module, no throttling at all.

how install thermalmodx

Did it stop now sir?

 

[aishik212]

Did it stop now sir?

nope the thermal throttling situation is quite bad now.
even the charging gets slower just with the in box cover due to the heating.
