Antutu benchmark on 4.4.2 - Causes reboots - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else have an issue when attempting a benchmark where Antutu causes the phone to power off and or reboot? I have tried 3 installs, and 4 attempts to get a benchmark results, all ending in reboot or powering off

Usually means not enough voltage supplied for cpu frequency. Undervolting?

no, for antutu it means that your phone is getting too hot and hitting the safety shutdown temp. cool down your phone before benchmarking. hitting the safety shutdown temp with antutu is very easy to do.

[Q] Heat and low perfiormance

Got My N5 today, its awesome,
Looks like the performance is so so, the phone heats up too quickly and CPU performance goes down,
If I do Antutu when its warm I get less than 20K in it
If I let it rest for some time and then do it I get a score of 25+
Looks like the device has heat issues
are you guys facing the same issues?
Two-part solution: Stop running benchmark tests and flash Franco kernel.
And, search before you post. Lots of threads on performance benchmarks
I see so many people who care what a benchmark score is.

its not a heat issue. it will get hot with use, especially with antutu benchmark, its a 2.3ghz quad core phone without an active cooling system, what do you expect? anyways, the reason performance goes down when hot is because of heat throttling. your phone does this when going over a certain temp. it drops the cpu speed and number of cores used until it cools down. there are ways around this. you can root your phone and flash a kernel that lets you disable thermal throttle. then all your left with is the safety reboot temp of 100C. when reaching this temp, the phone will automatically shut down. or you can put your phone into a freezer until the cpu temp is below 10C, then run the benchmark.

[Q] Does the Nexus 5 CPU throttle down while charging?

Been experiencing slight lagging when running some light to medium intensive apps, like Flipboard, Newsstand or PvZ 2. Is it due to the Snapdragon throttling down to prevent temperature spike? Anyone ezperiencing this?
It throttles down when "hot"

Charging the battery causes the phone to heat up. The more the phone is doing during that time the hotter it will get (above average usage) and more likely for CPU throttling to occur.
Try disabling as many background apps and processes as you can to reduce the phone's current draw while charging. You can also have it charge faster and cooler in Airplane mode but of course many apps would not be usable then.

Performance Question.

I game a lot on my phone. Anyone know if I will get better gaming performance having MSM MPDecision Hotplug and Temperature Throttle off? Will it be safe?

I don't know about hotplug but if you like gaming then disabling Temperature Throttle would probably result in harming the device after continued use, it is designed to reduce the power drawn by the processor, without that it can overheat.

Redmi Note 4 MTK Nikel Hot and auto reboot after Change thermal to 120deg C

Hello xda. i need your help.
as you all know that the redmi note 4 mediatek version is lagging alot when you play even only mid game processing aplication. when i play games for like 5 minute it starts lagging allready. what i know is that when this device temperature gets 45 degrees, the CPU hotplug will lower the CPU frequency or turn off the other CPU cluster to prevent the device gets overheating and drains too much battery. but this will cost out our gaming performance and cause lagging issue.
so i've modified the thermal policy to bypass the CPU hotpug to get maximum performance out of this device but it only last for 10 minutes and it auto reboots when it gets overheating, but i dont care if this device gets hot because it is common for a mediatek chipset
You can do it by editing the build.prop and change the line ro.build.type=user to ro.build.type=eng and then go to mtk engineering mode and change the thermal policy setting.
for me this device is like not capable of doing anything more than being just like an old device except for whatsapp and other social media. it's like the device has a powerfull processor but only for decoration.
The only problem now is that the device will auto reboot everytime it gets overheating and needs to cool down in order to be used again. and my only question is how to prevent the the device auto reboot when we use the 120deg C thermal ?.

I don't have this device but, your best bet is to post this question within the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device.

Red Magic 3S/3 Thermals Discussion

Hello everyone, I typically am a shadow user of XDA but Ive decided to start contributing and posting starting with a thermals thread.
As most people know the thermals in the RM3/RM3S were a big selling point for Nubia.
However, throughout my research Ive yet to find any definitive information on the thermals with the fan.
What id like is for this thread to detail how consistent the thermals between RM models are. The problem is I see people say their RM never reaches temperatures past 50c and theres videos showing it performing under 47c at max load.
My personal experience is on the Global Rom latest version on nubias website, I experienced temperatures between 40-48c at high loads and long gaming, however on the latest china rom I am consistently seeing cpu temperatures of 60+ even seeing 75-77c but was not able to push the phone to 80. These are cpu0 temps, throughout everything my battery never exceeded 48c, when at 75c i cut off the tests when the battery caught up to 48c point
THROTTLING NOTE:
Heres a big thing as well to take notice of, I have not been able to engage the thermal throttling on the V5.11 A11 Rom for the red magic 3s no matter what i do, and when checking the thermal engine file its empty, does this mean there is no throttling in place? Can someone check if this is consistent in their rom as well? I can engage thermal throttling fine on the red magic 3.
If your rom does have thermal throttling can you please copy paste your thermalengineconf for the thread?
To contribute for starters you can reply using this template.
For both roms or just one, please specifiy which.
Max temp experienced:
Avg temp experienced:
Max battery temperatures experienced, with or without a cutoff point
Throttle point:
Also just a side inquiry, is having temperatures of 60c-70c safe in the phone? Im aware cpus can handle 60-80c temperatures without issue except perhaps in the very very long term. However I am not sure the Snapdragon 855+ is capable of that? Can anyone educate me? Are the internals in the phone setup in such a way that the nand is as far as possible from the cpu? Anything over 45c is reaching extreme danger zones for ANY nand. If this question doesnt belong in the thread please let me know, this is my first post .
