How to Disable Thermal Throttling on Galaxy S25 Ultra

In this guide, we will show you the steps to disable the thermal throttling on your Galaxy S25 Ultra. The latest flagship from the South Korean giant beholds quite a power-packed specs sheet, with the likes of octa-core Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset coupled with Adreno 830 GPU, up to 16GB RAM, 1 TB storage, and a massive 5000mAh battery being the talk of the town.

Moreover, you’ll be able to carry out most of the resource-intensive tasks with ease on this device. But there’s always room for improvement! And so is the case here as well. The OEM has put in a certain threshold limit which limits the maximum capability of this device. This is done to prevent the device from being over-exploited which might lead to battery degradation and device overheating.

However, all of these caveats will come into play if the device is used in such a state for a longer time frame, using it for a limited time just to checkmark a few tasks wouldn’t have any major negative impact on your device as a whole. These tasks could include running apps that require a lot of processing power, such as MotionCam, RAW video recording, and playing resource-extensive games, among others.

While that’s al well and good, the most challenging task is how can you switch between pushing the device to the edge and then bringing it back when no longer required. Well, you can easily carry out this tweak with just a single tap on a Quick Setting toggle. Yes, you heard it right! So without any further ado, let’s have a look at this intriguing workaround.

Do note that you should only use your device in full throttle for a limited time frame. As soon as you are done with the resource extensive work, make sure to turn off this feature right away. Moreover, do note that even when the feature is enabled, check that the temperature doesn’t cross the 45-degree Celcius mark because when it does, you should disable this functionality at the earliest. Moreover, according to the developer of this module:

“Despite the default throttling behavior being partially disabled with this mod, keep in mind that there are still many mechanics in place that will throttle certain parts of the hardware to prevent any damage. For example, the SOC is still throttled once it hits its own throttling limit which is set to 105c for Snapdragon 8 Elite”.

Keeping these points in mind, let’s get started with the steps to disable the thermal throttling on your Galaxy S25 Ultra. Follow along.
