Why is my device only limited to 400 MHz?

It doesn't change no matter what I do

Check the temps:

/opt/scripts/device/x15/test_thermal.sh

Do you have an external fan to blow on it?

the cpu is 58.5C, thus it's in state 3... (3.5 degrees C over passive limit)...

If you stick a fan on it or blow across it, it'll auto upclock..

Is this a hardware limit?

Or better question, is there a way to increase the limit so it won't be in that state?
