Poor Androbench score... - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My brand new 32GB TF300 with around 10 apps installed gets a pretty bad Androbench score. I'm enjoying the tablet but the score is disappointing. I have completed the test multiple times and even disabled syncing.

Also, just to add I'm stock/unrooted.
And running the latest Jelly Bean firmware...

It would also be good other users could post their scores too...

The low scores are due to crappy I/O performance from the pad. It seems to be a hardware limitation, since no update has exponentially speed up the device. You can get better scores using custom ROMs and Kernels, and using data2sd with a high speed sdcard. But remember installing custom ROMs requires that you unlock you device, which in turn voids your warranty with ASUS.

I knew that before I bought the TF300.
I like the tablet (even though it occasionally lags). I just wondered if my scores were unusually bad.

nope. normal.... cm10+untermunch's kernel = fast

This is the kind of scores you can get rooted and romed but no data to SD on this device yet so can get even better

Is the system ROM supposed to be almost filled to capacity like that??
I'm rooted, stock running ADW Launcher Pro, flashed CWM community kernel, (voodoo lagfix), all AT&T Bloatware frozen, and phone is running good, Quadrant (for what its worth) is averaging the normal 1700, but battery life is not so good.... Can get all day use if i'm at work, but if i'm playing with it constantly battery life no more than 4 hrs or so....If thats avg then thats ok, but i think i was getting a lot better BEFORE i "voodoo'ed" : )
Don't want to flash any ROM if i can help it - so many different builds/versions/tar/pit/ i'd rather just leave it the way it is UNLESS anyone can point me towards a STOCK ROM that requires little or no "thinking"...lol
I have 3x extra batteries so i guess its not a HUGE deal, but i like to conserve wasted energy when i can... Also does Juice Defender really HELP? All those settings completely befuddle me, i prolly wind up using MORE cuz i'm like "nooooo, i need that, and that and that and that, don't limit that, omg i can't live without THAT!!!".... lol
thanx y'all,
Ms D
I have a little more left than you. Dont know if its normal though.
I'm not a developer but I try to play one on XDA. Seriously I'm not a developer. DlevROM Yo!
I have a little more than BigFau but not much, "27.5". Besides, this is just the space that the Rom is occupying it doesnt affect the internal sd or external sd from my understanding.
It's normal.....especially if you are mostly stock which you are.....and while you may have bloatware frozen, it is still installed.......ans yes voodoo being enabled takes IP a little more .....that is merely the storage capacity for ROMs or your phone operating system....
A stripped down aosp ROM like mine as you can see will have more space left ....

[Q] Best Governor for Gaming?

I know this is kinda vague because of the amount devices with various governors.
Its just I want the best performance for gaming and would like some advice since I don't actually concern myself with governors often. To specify the list I currently have these -

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now its currently on performance as I think this might be best for gaming although I could be 100% wrong.
Does overclocking or underclocking affect the overall games?
I'm mainly using Emulators, at times they seem to drop fps for seconds other times the game seems to just run slow. I know a concern is I'm running ICS.
I'm on a almost 3 year old device but one that has made a legacy - Droid Incredible.
Any advice?

You're right, the performance governor should give you the best gaming experience, for more detailed information on governorns, look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369817
If you are still dissatisfied with the performance of your phone, there might be an option where you can choose the max. cpu frequency, and by giving it a bigger value, you can overclock your phone. But be advised that this can damage your phone, and you might run into some warranty issues if you do that. So be warned, and do it for your own responsibility. I'm not responsible to any damage it does to your phone. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info, helped greatly.
I already knew about Max/min values
I was just curious if they affected game performance, either way this helped a lot.

Things doesn't go smoothly and it feels like taking 1or2 secs to response, something even stunned
Therefore i am looking for improvements, however i dont know very well on the systems files so that i want to make sure before i take actions.

It seems like the most safe/non-invasive way to improve performance is to remove/disable ASUS bloatware/downloaded apps that run in the background and slow down your system/use up your ram. Check the various sections of this forum for lists of what's safe to remove/disable.
If you decide to unlock and flash a custom recovery (I would recommend TWRP--don't try CWM from Rom Manager...please!) and rom, the Zeus Rom v3.0 is great and v4.0 should be coming soon. There is also another stock based rom that looks quite good. These roms have removed a lot of bloatware, have instituted a number of system tweaks that have improved my TF700 performance quite a bit over a complete stock ICS experience.
To add to okantomi....
Please don't jump into unlocking right away until you have read up on it Fully. It's best to wait till after your return period has expired so you don't end up returning an unlocked tablet that could possibly be recirculated or keep you from returning/getting your money back because you voided your warranty.

Myself,, I'm waiting on Jelly Bean before I even think of unlocking. There are ROM'S that LOOK like JB, but it's not the actual OS
thanks the replies
ya, i am not planning to unlock and install custom recovery in this stage
The reason that I rooted my tf700 is mainly for adblock, backup and recovery apps data to other devices and something like that
also, freeze those stock apps within asus which doesnt useful to me

Really high Android OS %

I am running clean rom 2.1 and have had great battery life until a couple days ago. I checked gsam and noticed I had a very high android OS%. In the clean rom thread someone had mentioned that gsiff.daemon could be a culprit. I have a long list of under the android OS and don't know if this is normal or not.
It was also mentioned that renaming the gsiff.daemon can help cure it. Would you do that under root manager? Does it matter what you rename it?
Any help would be appreciated

Get better battery stats from the general apps section. Follow the instructions on its post.
Sent from my Galaxy S3 running Eclipse ROM V2.1
I had the same issue with gsiff.daemon running stock rooted, unlocked. There are several way to determine if gsiff is the culprit, turn on 'Show CPU usage' under Developed options, and third party apps that monitor CPU usage. I like System Tuner from the Play store. Basically, gsiff runs amok and chews up available CPU after a 'hot reboot'. A standard reboot put gsiff in its place. I used Root Explorer to change the file name to xxx.xxx.bak. No more gsiff issues and I haven't noticed any changes in the phone functionality. It's been a couple weeks since I've changed the file name. There is much more discussion on this thread.

ROM Toolbox Pro CPU Control Not Working?

Hey all,
Any ideas why ROM Toolbox Pro's CPU Control center would not be working on this device? I am running ASUS stock JB ROM, unlocked and rooted with NvFlash access. I have never seen this issue before, even on my TF101. See attached screenshot for what I am talking about.

Not only do the sliders and Governor return to this state after setting and returning (attempting to set the max to 1700 [I know there's not much of a purpose, but you will see why in a second] and the Governor to performance), the max GHz seems to be maxed out at 1500 which is very odd.
I tried looking for a kernel that supported overclocking but didn't find any, anyone know if I am just flat out missing something?

I have tried a few CPU control apps and most of them are not working too well with JB on tf700. The only one I found that works is SetCPU, it recorded my max/ min and governor perfectly. (1700max and 50min), both settings are working well. Currently, there is no kernel that supported Over clocking.
