Looks like the Motorola G31 has this locked.
Me: What are the cpu clock speeds for the Motorola G31
AI: The Motorola G31 is equipped with a MediaTek Helio G85 processor. The CPU configuration for this processor includes:
- Two Cortex-A75 cores: These cores are clocked at up to 2.0 GHz.
- Six Cortex-A55 cores: These cores are clocked at up to 1.8 GHz.
So I ran
CPU Throttling Test - Apps on Google Play because the one in your link no longer exists, and it showed it running 50% of this speed, slowing from full to half in the first minute.
ME: How do i stop a phone throttling the cpu when I do heavy work on it?
AI:
Enable Performance Mode: Some phones have a performance mode that optimizes CPU and GPU performance. Check your phone's settings under
Battery or
Performance to see if this option is available.
ME: I can't find how to enable performance mode
AI: On the Motorola G31, there isn't a specific "Performance Mode" feature like you might find on some other smartphones.
Well that's that then. Misadvertising in the extreme. Like a 140mph car which can only do so for one minute, and will only do 70mph continuously. Pity, because Motorola is the least annoying company I've come across so far.
So why is it throttling when it's not overheating?
