[Q] What is decent Quadrant benchmark score? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I think I had around 1500-1600 on stock 2.3.3. I rooted and installed Netarchy 1.3.0 CFS kernel and it's back up to 2200. I did not overclock.
I did some search on Google and I've seen some going up to 4500 with custom ROM, kernel, and overclock.
I prefer keeping stock ROM, so is overclock pretty much only way to increase benchmark score? How much effect would it have, say if I purchased setCPU app and raised to 1.4 GHz?
Thanks!

I get around 2.700 - 2.800 with netarchy bfs, OCed to 1,4 GHz on stock 2.3.3

So did you purchase setCPU (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mhuang.overclocking&feature=search_result) and switched to 1400 MHz and it brought your benchmark up to 2800?
How is the battery life with 1.4 GHz? Battery life and stability is what's worrying me the most about overclocking..
Thanks!

Yes I did. But I am not keeping it at 1400 MHz(it was for testing only). Performance is amazing when I have i set to 1200 max 100 min "ondemand" Just did a quadrant, and I got 2100.

Woah! I just killed all tasks running(not setCPU) and I got 3003. I was curious again, and tried when set to 1400. Got 3300.

So I guess it would be very possible to get mine over 3000 with simply overclocking since it's around 2200 without overclocking (only stock 2.3.3 ROM and Netarchy 1.3.0 CFS kernel).
Kind of bit wary about overclocking though because I think this is fast enough.

That's amazing. I plan to keep stock ROM so I think only way I could raise score is by overclocking..
How is the battery life after OC?

When you over clock it drains faster depending on the profiles you have set for screenoff. I have a kernel with the smartass profile built in. I'm running 1.8ghz with no problems but my battery last five hours. And I get 3421 in quadrant

yea, the only way youll raise the score significantly is by overclocking. and if you want to stay on the stock rom, youll have to find an overclocked kernel to flash and use setcpu(or similar) to set the oc.
about battery life, it really depends how you use your phone, even with overclocking. you can have absolutely great battery days, and you could have terrible battery days. i can overclock my phone up to 1.6ghz stably, but usually use a 1.4ghz kernel to oc. obviously, the faster you set it, the more battery itll use. but the difference isnt significant, unless youre oc'ed at 1.6ghz. btw, thats my 4500 in quadrant

Netarchy kernel is overclocked kernel right? I read that it can be OCed to 1.4 GHz. So in that case, I would just need to purchase setCPU app right?

yes. they boot safely at 1ghz. then you set your desired speed. not all phones can handle an oc though. some can only handle 1.2ghz. and some not even that. some have no problems at 1.5 or 1.6ghz. your phone will let you know if its to much.

How do I find out if the phone is durable and stable after OC? Temperature of the phone, or O/S freezing??
My setting now is:
Performance
Max: 1400 MHz
Min: 1000 MHz
SELECT Set on boot
Did I set the settings right?
I got 2700-3000 with the setting above.
But it seems like there is no problem. I did stress test for a bit (stopped because it took long) but there was no error.
And I got little bit over 3200 with stock 2.3.3 ROM, Netarchy 1.3.0 CFS, and OC to 1.4 GHz when I set both Max and Min values to 1400 MHz
I was looking at screen shots from market but how do I set it to go down when temperature is hot?

yea, looks like your doing it right. i always throw out the first 3 quadrants, the 4th or 5th is usually pretty good
btw, dont checkmark the set on boot option. otherwise it wont boot up at a safe speed and could throw you into bootloops.

Is that why my SNS did not boot once? After Google logo displayed, it did not boot (although LED lights were on). I had to take out battery and put it back again.
I think that happened to me twice ever since I rooted. This did not happen prior to rooting.
So I would have to manually change setting on setCPU each time I reboot?
Thanks!

I guess the benchmark score varies after couple tries. I got it up to 3300 after updating to 1.3.0.1 Netarchy kernel.

you were booting if you had your keys lit up. thats just a dark boot without boot animation. that happens sometimes, since android 2.3.3 came out. just be patient, itll boot. theres no harm in it.oh, yea, youll have to change settings manually.

Overclocking Thunderbolt

I have read that the HTC Inspire has the same CPU as the Thunderbolt, if this is correct will the 1.8ghz overclock also work for the Thunderbolt? Anyone with some light on this situation?

We'll have to wait until we get custom kernels to do this. Each phone has a different kernel IIRC so you can't slap the Inspire OC on the Thunderbolt and rock on.
I'm sure we'll hit 1.8 if not 2.0. Just be patient.
I'm happy with 1G as is... but I could always use more speed.
According to Wikipedia:
Inspire uses the MSM8255 chip..
Thunderbolt uses the MSM8655.
They are both rated for 1ghz, but it could be that the MSM8655 is superior in other ways and might have a higher/safer overhead.. We might be able to get a 100% overclock or really dark close to it.

the guy who did that 1.8Ghz kernel claims he gets 20 hours or so on a charge.
I think it would easily get 20 hours on a full charge. Interactive only uses what it needs.

the 8255 is the same cpu in the MT4G which can clock up to 1.8
They just did overclock it to 1.8ghz

2800 on the quadrant, another article shows a screenshot of 3000 too.
Also, tester says he was getting 12 hours (8AM to 8PM) with moderate use. 45 minutes, I think not...

lol I was being sarcastic. I am well aware of the fact that you can get good battery life out of an overclocked phone. I came from the evo 4G where I had "god" mode enabled and got great battery life.
P.S. God mode on the evo ment overclocking to 1.2Ghz. Most phones couldn't go that high, so you had to enable "god" mode to try.

Now gimme a link!!!!
Good to know the phone doesn't disappoint.
I'm an inspire owner on an overclocked kernel. On 1800 my battery with normal use (tons of Facebook and xda app, email,~50 texts, and 10-15 2-5 min phone calls) gets ~20-24 hrs on a full charge. This was my best benchmark.

I tried that as well. My Quadrant score was similar but I found browser scrolling and gameplay in Angry Birds to be noticeably choppy. Also, in Quadrant, the orbiting planet test pegs at 60fps stock where with this kernel it was jumping around all over at lower fps. Ended up flashing a different stock clocked kernel and everything was good again.

Adrynalyne said somewhere that his 1.6GHz was thermal throttling ... this might also be what is happening in the situation you're describing.
we need to find the link to the kernel that has the TB OC'd to 1.8... >.>
I don't think the 1.8 is quite ready yet, but it seems a little excessive to me.. but thats just my humble opinion

I have a kernel that is 1.8ghz capable, but it will reset after a while. So far it seems that 1.4ghz is stable. If I go any higher, eventually it resets. I have the Liquid sense rom installed. Haven't tried any others to see if the kernels are more stable at higher clocks.
Edit: with this ROM at 1.8hgz I get a 2571 on quadrant. I think that's particularly good. Too bad it resets once in a while. Any one recommend a good kernel for stable overclock?

Whats your CPU Profiles!

So I have...
My G2x Is running at 1gz\.4 I don't find a need to OV it...
The UV is set at -50 at 1gz and at 800 it is -100 and at 500 and 400 at -200mv.
What are your sets? I would like to see other people's choices. I will report on my battery life later. I can't today since I have been going into recovery mode all morning.
Ps. As profiles go...
I have screen off set to 800/400. I don't like it lagging when i turn my screen on.
I can run stress test easily with my settings. No hiccups or anything.
EDIT:
So I was asked what kernel I'm using... I will post my ROM + KErnel! and just to let you know, my G2x has never had any problems so that may be way my G2x can get -200 on 500 and 400
And I am using faux's CM7 Kernel Version 0.2.4

How are you not getting reboot problems with 400 at -200mv? I'm using faux's froyo kernel and when I undervolt at -100mv i get rebooting problems
I replied to your comment in my main post, since other people may be interested in that and that will cause them not to scan the pages.
Bump :\ I would like input
so how is your battery life?
Bad. Something about those settings messed it up. I much prefer just using the custom rom default kernel its much better on the battery

My chip could only use faux's OC 1.2ghz, using the kernel OC 1.5 would cause my phone to boot loop. I could go stable @ faux OC 1.2 with minimum UV, getting qudrant score of atleast 3000 - 3500. Another kernel that i tried is MOrfic's, I can go stable up to 1.4 Ghz/minimum UV- quadrant of atleast 4000-4300. I believe i have what they say as the "weak chip" though running OC @ 1.4 ghz doesn't make it look weak. Thanks to the great DevS!

How to Overclock your Sidekick 4G to 1.2GHz! (Stable)

We can now overclock our sidekicks ! First off all you need is root for this to work.
NEED ROOT!
Overclock can be harmful to your hardware.

I shot an email to the dev of an Overclock app called Tegrak Overclock that supports pretty much now every variant of the Galaxy S (II) . I Asked if they'd support our device because of how similar it is to the Galaxy S line. Just a few hours later they replied, letting me know that we had the correct (Hummingbird) Processor and asked a few more questions about our device. By the next morning they sent me an test app and it works perfectly... Allowing us to Overclock to a Stable 1.2GHz!
How it works:
Download the New Updated app from the Market - Tegrak Overclock
When it opens, select Load overclock module. Then it will request root permission, allow it.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

}
Then select CPU max frequency to overclock up to 1.3Ghz. In my experience, it seems that the highest stable steps were 1.2Ghz and 1.152Ghz, both stable enough for daily use. Its possible that others devices may be able to handle those frequencies better than mine, but always be careful cause overclocking can be dangerous.
Theres alot more features within the app, if you know what your doing you can change a few more settings to your liking. Theres a paid version of the app that grants even more abilities, one that made me not mind buying it was having overclock persist after reboot.
If your going to try out higher frequencies make sure you dont set those settings on reboot unless you know they are stable for you.
Heres my Ultimate Setup, No Lag or Home screen freezing/loading.
-TouchMIUIwiz ROM 2.0
-Bali Kernel + Ext4 Lagfix
-LauncherPro Plus
-Overclocked @ 1.152GHz - Reaching over 2060 on quadrant
And my battery easily last a whole day, see how your setup works with your overclock.
Have fun overclocking your sidekicks, and many Thanks to the Devs behind Tegrak Overclock !
I tried I this morning and set I to 1.152ghz and did a qurand test and got 1523 on stock KG2.

Just for clarity--are you getting a boot loop or just a reset when you overclock?
Also, the few devices I've come across fail under an OpenGL stress test--when overclocked. Stock devices are stable.

Does it not support?..
Hey I have a SK4G also, here is my info:
Model number: SGH-T839
Firmware version: 2.3.5
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-Platypus_Egg_v1
Build number: GenericGinger 2.0
When i try to load overclock module it states; "Your device or kernel is not available. Do you want to see available models?"
Do you think the developer can fix this?
i question which is better: overclocking or fixing how your phone manages memory. i have had two android devices and tried overclocking on both. while the phone may have been a tad more responsive, moving through windows a bit faster and a few other minor improvements, i didnt notice any real performance increase. however, i recently discovered the v6 supercharger script, and have noticed a huge difference. web pages are loading at least twice as fast and im not on 4g, my home screen doesnt redraw, multitouch has improved greatly, the screen doesnt freeze or lag as much, and my quadrant scores have improved. prior to supercharging, my quadrant score was in the 900's. after supercharging, its in the 1100's. its no 1500, but its a lot better than stock.

We can't tell you not all phones are the same, uv a little (10 or 25) run it for a day or two see how it acts, if its steady, uv a little more, when it starts acting up thats your limit go back to previous settings.

We can't tell you not all phones are the same, uv a little (10 or 25) run it for a day or two see how it acts, if its steady, uv a little more, when it starts acting up thats your limit go back to previous settings.

I've seen some general advice not to UV for anything over 1ghz speeds as well, but it may not hurt to try if you want and adjust as needed for stability.
I'm running on a -75mv at 1.5Ghz faux kernel 0.4.7..
Perfectly stable, benchmarked AnTuTu, Quadrant, and all those other good stuff.
I have not tried -100mv yet, I doubt it will be stable.
Every phone is different, but I run mine at -20 up to 1 G, and -10 for the rest.
Mine I cant undervolt shoot I have to keep my minimum frequency at 500 to be stable, course I can also run at 1.5 all day (I keep it at 1.2).
Well I guess I can't say I cant UV since I use pimp my cpu and it only gives you options in 25 increments, maybe I would be stable at like -10. But coming from my galaxy s 4g where I could UV over -150 and still be stable, that just doesnt even sound worth doing.
Edit: I just thought about it and maybe the reason I cant UV (more) is because I'm using fauxs pre UV/OC kernel, so I dont even know what stock voltage is. But comparing to my sgs4g at stock voltage I am running considerably lower voltages on the g2x.
The faux thread says it's pre uv at -50 across the board.

What schedular and governor do you use in jellybean?

Hey all
as the topic states what governor and scheduler do you use for jellybean ? What settings? How's the battery life and performance? It seems like jellybean is different in how it uses the CPU compared to ICS
I'm currently using interactive and deadline and I only get 3.5 hour on screen...in ICS I used to get 4 to 5 hours

I've always stuck with ondemand. Suits my needs. I've never seen a dramatic change in battery between the OS upgrade.

When I upgrade to JB these are the settings I'll use for ondemmand. The rest of my settings are in my signature.
Nexus S (GMS i9020a)
Paranoid (1.6 - 4.0.4)
Matrix Kernel (CFS - 20.0)
Ondemmand (800/200)
Deep Idle (Off - Noop)
Live OC - 100 (400/800)
BLX - 98 (Inverted Apps)
Interactive. Really nice and speedy!

Interactive
Faster with _thalamus' test22 than 23 for me

I plan on flashing thalamus' interactive or may wait until the next JB update from Adam . I heard its a actually better in some areas. If its done right, I don't think it would be too bad. Bugless Beast on GB had interactive as its stock governor and battery was great. I've used interactive on some kernels and it was god awful.
Edit: Just flashed. Wow.

i got alot of radio dumps with jelly belly 0.1.4 so i flashed _thalamus' kernel test22 (interactive) and test23
i upgraded to 0.1.5 so far so good
So test 22 is actually better than 24? Got a link for 22?

i even can't change my governor in JB
are you using nstools for set your governor?
after using Jellybean, i dont know why i cant set the governor anymore..
the governor tab is just gray and stuck on my nstools.
i tried in air kernel and thalamus and they behave the same
Thalamus' kernel only has one governor. Try using another application, like SetCPU to change it for Air Kernel.

what do you think guys ? noop . cfq or deadline ?
Deadline or noop are usually suggested for ondemand. Check out this thread for all this and more.

Currently at 15hr 34min on battery with 29% left... only 1hr screen-on time... stock kernel included in cm10 ROM... I have everything turned on 4G, GPS, sync, etc... so to me, this is actually pretty good life... if I turned that stuff off I'm sure life would increase quite a bit...

I use the default "schedular" and default governor. I have a hint of an idea what a schedular does, and I roughly know what the governor does and why. That doesn't mean I have to change it. I have flashed quite a few ROMs and tried tweaks like omgwtfphonebooster V200. in 90% of the cases it just wasn't worth the trouble (You get a bit of placebo if you really believe in it but then that's it). So I have a question for you: Do you think you understand more about governors, schedulers and android OS than a proper dev either from google or here on XDA (like thalamus). Just because you can tweak almost every part of the system doesn't mean you have to . It's set to ondemand by default because ondemand does it's job very well.
Don't get me wrong I completely understand what you're doing, I did that myself for the past two years, because I thought yeah I know better than google and I must OC otherwise the phone is crap. I mean it can't run as fast on 1GHz as on 1.2GHz, the second nr. is obviously bigger so it must be better. I mean it's a phone, not a supercomputer or a gaming machine, get a PC for that or a stupid console if you have to.
I find my Nexus S runs very smooth on Stock with thalamus kernel, and it's not a constant rebooter. To be fair I'm not on stock but on CM10 because I'm addicted to voodoo sound + DSP manager, but that's a completely different story and I can actually hear the difference.
I'm actually glad thalamus put the voodoo sound add on to his kernel. That's all I felt was missing from it. And I agree. This phone is fast enough as it is. I understand a little bit about both, but I tend to just leave the scheduler alone since it's beyond my comprehension(for now). I've messed with a few governors here and there, but really don't care anymore. lol. I've just grown tired of it. Ondemand/interactive just work when done properly, as seen in a few kernels. I'd rather have something that doesn't reboot all the damn time than the fastest Nexus S on the block. But that's the glory of Android. Everyone can flash what they want pretty much to their heart's desire.

i notice the difference in changing the scheduler and gov... for example... if i run my phone with interactive (like i am now) i get slightly better battery life than with ondemand... my preference is to run "wheatley" gov since i've ALWAYS seen the best in performance and battery with that gov... but most kernels don't add that in stock form... as for the scheduler... i run "noop" most of the time b/c my phone doesn't seem as stable running "deadline"... i have considerable lag when running deadline vs noop... as for OC'ing, that's sorta up in the air b/c i get great results and smoothness running it at 1000MHz... 1200MHz, i'm still trying to test if i notice a difference but so far its about the same, if not a little worse... i typically run it at 200/1000MHz and that works out wonderfully... 1400MHz is way too unstable for my phone even tho i definitely notice the speed increase!
you can't say that "tuning" our phones to suit our needs is trying to say that we know more than Google or the developers of this stuff b/c that's just false... we're tuning this stuff to OUR needs... they tune stuff for the safe side of things where most people won't have issues... it's just like tuning a car in a sense... manufacturers typically detune their cars to be on the safe/efficient side... take my old Civic Si (2006), i could safely rev it to 9000rpm but the default was set to 8300rpm even tho the parts could handle close to 10,000rpm before running a high risk of breaking... knowing the limits of our phone is the same thing... which is the purpose of this thread i'd assume!
