Fixing heating issue in ICSROM with script method by jeremywh7. Please help!



jeremywh7 has explained how to fix the issue with the ICSROM governor so that it runs with min 216Mhz and causes less heating - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=1051

Here's the entire post -

I have rebooted*, and its still working fine.
[*edit: forgot to update this post...a power off and cold boot does reset it. I've made an init.d script to fix it for now; will provide details later, as its now the wife's main phone.]

Better late than never, right? :-/ Here is the script I made as '/etc/init.d/01cpufreq' and set to chmod 755 (manually, using ES File Explorer, actually):
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
#ramdisk cpu scaling min fix

chown root.root /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo "216000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
I installed Universal Init.d (by Androguide.fr) to apply it at boot. I had to run the Test part w/ the tool set to Off, to enable SuperUser privileges. [Update: if you click a file to edit, it will also prompt for su, so that would be easier than running the test; K's July kernels don't support init.d obviously; I'm using kernel-2014_07_04_19_18_atrics.] After setting the tool On, and rebooting...voila, file permission fixed and min frequency 216 MHz.

Since I converted my old CM9-based Atrix to ICSROM (the reason I'm working on all this again), I recalled another mod, rain drop detect issue, for future reference:

Make sure to leave the extra character at the end the config line [ref: post 119].

Hope this helps...




Needless to say, I don't understand the instructions and I really want to be able to do this fix, so if anyone can help me, please let me know. How can I run this script?
