Bad download?

I've tried flashing and unzipping (80 and stock), both unsuccessfully. When I try to unzip, it says "bad zip file." I've tried downloading several times -- is anyone else having this issue? Thanks!
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Why are you trying to unzip it if you just flash it in recovery and wipe the caches you're good to go
[G3 Android Development] meyerweb:
If it won't flash or unzip, it's a corrupt file. Are you downloading direct to your phone, or to a PC?
[G3 Android Development] rdy105:
I was downloading to my phone -- I'll try downloading through my PC later today and try it. Thanks!
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Either that or try a different web browser for your phone

You are definitely getting a corrupted download I just tried it just to see and all went fine
[G3 Android Development] rdy105:
Flashing in recovery didn't work, that's why I tried to unzip. Sorry if I wasn't clear in my original post. Thanks!

Downloaded with Firefox and was able to flash in TWRP. Thanks again!
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Good to hear how you enjoy it and everything works well for you
[G3 Android Development] radeonxt:
i'm using D855 international, just like the other user here i'm having issue copying thermald.conf so as to have backup on external sd.

i have used es file explorer and root browser to no avail.

even tried file browser off twrp but don't see any files.

tried safe mode but 3rd party apps are disabled.

another thing i noticed is your files are:

thermald.conf

thermald-8974.conf

thermal-engine.conf

thermal-engine-8974.conf

the files i can find in my system/etc are:

thermal-engine-8974-default.conf

thermal-engine-8974.conf

thermal-engine.conf

thermald.conf
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
First as far as copying them if you can't I do have a revert to stock zip so all you'd have to do is flash it and then go into system/etc and delete thermald-8974.config and you'd be back to stock

Now as far as the difference in files is that first thermal-engine-8974-default.config doesn't need to be changed and thermald-8974.config needs to be added for 2 reasons 1 to make it work and the other so if you want to change the values with a kernel app you can the only bug is that if you change the values with an app you just have to go back into system/etc and change the permissions back to 0777 on thermald..config

Hopefully I explained that well enough for you
[G3 Android Development] tobitege:
About permissions: would 771 suffice instead of 777?
[G3 Android Development] radeonxt:
oh i see. just thought it was difference in files in dxxx versions and/or sw version.

so it's fire away and flash the 75 zip.

thanks. will report back here for results.

anyone here tried this mod along with script from

? tia.
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I don't know I just know that on kernels that allow you to mess with the thermals the permissions are 777 you can always give it a try and see if they stick with 771
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
if you decide to give it a try please report back and let me know your findings
[G3 Android Development] dairymasta:
Flashed the 75 mod. Can't say I'm experiencing that much increase in performance (or any at all?) but my phone is hella hot now.

Running 5.0 rooted stock.

EDIT: Quick update, also experiencing a lot more battery drain. Will give it a couple cycles.
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
You're the first to report those 2 issues maybe try the 70 zip and see if that helps

If I may ask when is it you notice the heat increase is it just in everyday use or are you doing some extensive gaming?

Because if there is a problem I want to take a look into it and see if it can't be fixed

I've been on the 80 zip a and haven't noticed any significant heat increase but yes there is on the 80 zip a slight increase in battery drain but you have to remember that's going to happen because the cpu is not throttling down as fast it's staying at 2.45 for a longer period of time
[G3 Android Development] Mangtas_666:
Thanks will try it.. It thought its only for the 1st version that doesnt need twrp.
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Flashing with twrp is the preferred method but it can still be done manually with the updated versions
[G3 Android Development] pblasi:
Hi Robshr,

Is your mod compatible with "G3 SPEED" script by razz1?

Would you recommend this script?

Thanks!
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes the two are compatible but you'll have to judge for yourself how well the script works I tried it but didn't see much difference so I can't say one way or another
[G3 Android Development] cheaterdawaq:

Hi [MENTION=4888382]Robshr[/MENTION],

I am currently building an AROMA based update.zip, which debloats stock ROMs, for new users.

There is no tangible build yet, but I am working on it.

I planned to increase the scope by adding other scripts and tweaks if allowed.

So I would like to ask if I may include your temperature mod into my soon to come "ImproveG3" script?

You will be properly credited, of course.

The script will be free for all to download.

Regards,

Hey,

Is this different from the hidden menu MOD shown here? (I mean in what it actually does, obviously this one requires root and the other one do not)

- http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/mod-root-rid-lag-g3-t2819365
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes this one is different in that this one does not turn off thermal throttling and the other one does
[G3 Android Development] dyepnoodle:
anyone using this MOD with AndroidNow HD? which value do you guys recommend, 70 or 75?

TIA
[G3 Android Development] Racer-1:
I am using the 80 degree one with Android Now 5.0. But the phone throttles after every restart to 1,7 Ghz even with the mod. So I guess the temperature measuring tools don't read the right temps.

Throttling with temps under 50 is silly.
[G3 Android Development] cap1tal1sm:
How do I know if the mod is working? I wiped the cache and dalvik, and I flashed it, but when i reboot and check my system/etc folder, it seems like the thermal engine stuff is still there. Do you actually have to remove it from the folder? And what order should we follow, install then wipe cache/dalvik or wipe cache dalvik then install? i've tried both and it still leaves me with the 8974.config.

Also, i have a fifth config that says thermal engine-8974-default.conf, what do I do with that one?
[G3 Android Development] tobitege:
This is not an apk so no wipe needed/applicable. Install does replace existing files and if on Lollipop, you may see other thermal files, too, but you can ignore them.
[G3 Android Development] cap1tal1sm:
i'm not on 5.0 L. ok so even though the files look the same it will be in effect? sad how i dont really know, i'm only getting 36.7k on antutu when some people get over 40k... and im running another script for speed...
[G3 Android Development] tobitege:
Re: Antutu: same for me, depending on rom version the results may differ; reasons can be different kernels, mods interfering or the rom having additional init.d scripts.
[G3 Android Development] tarroyo:
As far as heat goes or keeping our g3 devices cool, which one is the best to use? 70, 75, or 80???

I would assume 70 being that its the lowest number.
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes 70 would be the best to keep it cool I personally use 75 it's a good balance
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes the files are the same but some of the values are changed

And as far as your antutu score goes there are many factors which can effect it

Personally I think your cpu governor and settings for it have the most effect but also ROM applications running and many other things can affect your antutu score
[G3 Android Development] aukhan:
Would this work on LG G3 Sprint Version (Ls990)
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes it'll work on any variant or ROM
[G3 Android Development] aukhan:
awesome which is better 75 or 80 ??
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I use the 75 it's a good balance
[G3 Android Development] aukhan:
ok I am gonna Give it try :good:
[G3 Android Development] cap1tal1sm:
sorry, i actually am not that worried about the benchmark, i totally understand some people get different scores and 36k is still better than stock g3 anyway. i'm more just uncertain whether stuff changed or not, but i take your word that the values were changed. thanks for the mod!
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
You can just compare your stock files with the ones in my mod and you'll see the differences
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Delete
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Just to clarity things this is not the same as the other throttling mod as that one royalty eliminates all throttling and this one just changes some of the values so you get better performance and eliminate lag

[G3 Android Development] gsw5700:
Hi, great app, what do you think about gradually lowering cpu freq? E.g.. At 60c go-to 2.2mhz, at 65 goto 2ghz etc, the phone will still be fast but stay cooler overall.

I did this using profiles using setcpu and it never really got hot whilst providing good performance but, setcpu isn't really stable
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I pretty much did do that for example on the 75° mod i did the first three step downs as follows at 75 it steps down to 2.26 ghz at 85 it steps down to 1.95 and at 95 it steps down to 1.7 then the rest i left stock so there's no danger of the phone burning up
[G3 Android Development] gsw5700:
Cool, no pun intended lol, but could we please have say a 60c lowering to 2.2ghz and 65 lowering to 2ghz? Would love to test this
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Sure I'll work on one should have one posted in a day or so
[G3 Android Development] gsw5700:
Great, Many Thanks cool dude

[G3 Android Development] Achraf4X:
Hi [MENTION=4888382]Robshr[/MENTION], do I need to switch back thermal throttling before using this mod? thanks
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
If you mean high temperature property and thermal mitigation in the hidden menu then yes you want to turn them back off
[G3 Android Development] Achraf4X:
Thanks, well I'll better try your mod disabling all thermal throttling keeps me worried about it...
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yeah I had the same worry that's why I came up with thiis mod
[G3 Android Development] sielski:
Is this work with RR? And do we need this on latest cm12 ?
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
First i don't know what you mean by RR and for the second question it depends on whether or not you're using a custom kernel but even some custom kernels based on stock still throttle like stock so it really depends but if you're using a stock kernel then yes you can benefit from this mod
[G3 Android Development] tobitege:
RR = Resurrection Remix ROM (non-stock obviously) :)
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes so far i haven't found a Rom that it wasn't compatible with
[G3 Android Development] Polini99:

[G3 Android Development] engashelpdesk:
Thanks for this app sir, it really boosted my device from 30000 to 35000 using antutu benchmark. At first I thought I bricked my g3 since it took several minutes to load after flashing, wiping the dalvic/cache and rebooting. It also removed the root access on the first boot but the root access returned after I rebooted my g3. Again, thanks for this wonderful script.
[G3 Android Development] MikeLibbey:

2. yes

[G3 Android Development] Otagamo:
Anyone knows whats the temp threshold for forced reboot?

Happened to me once after disabling temp control, phone started rebooting over and over again (apparently the phone gets pretty hot while rebooting, so its like a loop, high temp makes the phone reboot and the reboot itself makes the phone hot enough to reboot again).
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I'm glad you like it happy to help and that's weird never Hyatt that happen anyone else but I'm glad it all worked out in the end

Rob
[G3 Android Development] mafury:
This mod don't causes overheat?
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I think it's around 95° to 100°c i had almost same thing but my phone just shut drown after disabling the high temperature that's the main reason i came up with this mod so you can still benefit but don't have to worry about reboots or shutdowns as it still throttles the cpu just not to the extreme lg thought was necessary i recommend the 75° mod

Rob
[G3 Android Development] meyerweb:
There's no "right" answer. The higher the temp threshold you choose (70c, 75c, or 80c), the hotter the cpu can get before it starts getting throttle to lower performance settings. If you play a lot of games that really tax the cpu, choosing a higher setting make make game play smoother. But at the expense of higher temps, which can potentially reduce the life of the phone. Potentially. Choosing a lower threshold will keep the phone cooler, but not provide as much performance benefit when using cpu-intensive apps.

I don't play a lot of games, and value keeping the phone cool, so I chose the 70c version.

---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:17 PM ----------

It shouldn't let the phone get any hotter, at maximum, than the stock phone. It will let the phone get hotter before it starts throttling the cpu. Simple answer: if your phone doesn't overheat now, it won't overheat with this mod.
[G3 Android Development] RMarques:
The answer should be yes, but I prefer to ask...Is it ok to run the script on Cloudy 2.0? I just have 2 files

thermal-engine-8974.conf

thermal-engine-default.conf

...is it ok or should I have all the files you've mentioned?

Cheers and happy new year all!
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Yes it's fine on cloudys Rom when you flash it in recovery it'll add the other two files . i run cloudys Rom along with this Rom works great
[G3 Android Development] RMarques:
Flashed and everything went ok so far!

[G3 Android Development] arifqur:
First of all many many Thanks for this wonderful mod.

I have been banging my head since the day I got the G3 that such a powerful device could be so slow and laggy.

I started monitoring the CPU frequency and the CPU Temp, and found out that the minute the temp hit 60 odd degrees the CPU frequency would fall to around 1500mhz.

You mention in the OP that many custom kernels have this mod set at 80 degrees but to-date I have not found one that manages to increase the throttling limit.

Tried all Stock roms as well as all Lollipop Roms but the same thing.

You Sir are a hero to me as I have been planning to sell my G3 because in my country it comes without warranty and I thought that it was a faulty unit.

One thing. I still cannot get the kernel to OC above any stock value even after using Intelliplug instead of Mpdecision.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and regards.

And also I think that this thread should be stickied somewhere because it took me two weeks to find out why my G3 performed like crap.
[G3 Android Development] maximo12345:
It works also on cm12.

[G3 Android Development] Robshr:

[G3 Android Development] whoamigriffiths:

[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
This mod should be compatible with any ROM and should work on all variants of the g3 if anyone finds that it doesn't work with a certain ROM or g3 variant please let me know so I can put it in the op
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I just added a poll to get everyone's opinion on the mod thanks for participating and the feedback

Rob
[G3 Android Development] silvbm:
Thanks for providing this mod, using it since the beginning, first on stock, now on Euphoria OS.

I have a suggestion, too. ;) You wrote that the last 4 bumps down are the same as stock. What about rising the temperature in these steps? What do you think about it? Reason I ask is, for example in Sky Force the performance is a lot better than without your mod the first minutes, but then the throtteling kicks in and is's the same. Do you think rising the last steps could counter this? I don't mind the device burning my hands off or the insane battery consumption. :D
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
If the performance is better without the mod in skyforce than raising the last four bumps won't make a difference it has to be something with the game also I don't know why the performance would be better without the mod that just doesn't make sense it should still improve the performance
[G3 Android Development] silvbm:
I'm sorry, if it wasn't clear what I meant. The performance is better with your mod! Just after some time, I guess when the telephone gets hot it clocks down to the last steps you left untouched from the stock values. So the performance is then the same as without your mod, because the values set are the same. My proposal was if the clock rates of the last steps could be upped to improve performance. What do you think about it?
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
I will look into it I just don't want to start burning up phones I left them stock so you don't end up frying your phone but let me take a look and see if I can do it and do it safely
[G3 Android Development] megalosdog:
Guys, I'd just like to throw out there that the best thing I did to increase performance is to use the "on-demand" governor, or if kernel allows, use the itelliactive. For me, it made a significant difference.
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
Now for myself I get the best performance using interactive governor my antutu scores run on average around 42k
[G3 Android Development] megalosdog:
Isn't that the stock gov.?
[G3 Android Development] Robshr:
For the kernel I'm using which is skydragon the stock governor is ondemand

I'm rooted on stock kernel/Rom 4.4.2 2gb version.no big changes, just some debloating/freezing and small adjustments.

Got a 38k on antutu which is fine I guess...though I'm really looking for the smoothest of experience I can get....
