If the temperature is 40-45 degrees, runs on ideal config, with max =850
If the device is cold, starvs the CPU and let it run till 900MHZ.


#!/bin/sh
set old=""
set limits=""
set oldlimits=""
while test 2 -gt 1;
do
modprobe bq27x00_battery
read tmpr </sys/class/power_supply/bq27200-0/temp
if test $tmpr -gt 45;
then new="default";
limits="250 600";
else
if test $tmpr -gt 40;
then
new="ideal";
limits="500 850";
else
new="starving";
limits="500 900"
fi
fi
if test $old!=$new;
then
/usr/sbin/kernel-config load $new;
/usr/sbin/kernel-config limits $limits;
else if test $limits!=$oldlimits
/usr/sbin/kernel-config limits $limits;
fi
fi
old=$new
oldlimits=$limits
sleep 30

i am aware of it since i read it, but still want to try when its available.

unfortunately, no luck, im sticking with low voltages of titan.

thanks to titan

EDIT: i can chhoose to tweak the settings but i chose not to, i want the kernels the way they are when i installed them, and based on past my experience touching the pmconfig. by usig the ulv and ideal kernels @1ghz, my device has less time producing heat. and only up to 25°c (its a bit cold here, thats why its low) even if using game emus.

I copy paste all these commands on x-terminal? or there is something else i have to do?

1. Make a directory if you haven't
mkdir /home/opt/scripts

2. Make file (need leafpad)
leafpad /home/opt/scripts/oc-safty.sh (paste into file and save)

3. make it executable
chmod +x /home/opt/scripts/oc-safty.sh

4. Run it.
cd /home/opt/scripts/
./oc-safty.sh

You could probably put it in init.d to make it run automatically every reboot. But am not sure exactly how to do that.

I am now using tonism's starving profile and so far so good even at 1.1Ghz. =)

i take the message cd: i can not cd to /home/opt/scripts/./oc-safty.sh
