[Q] Benchmark and over-clocking - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so I just ran a benchmark and recieved a score of 6193. Is this pretty normal to what you guys are seeing? Im running setcpu, but also had a quesion about these over-clocking apps.....being that the 10.1 sch-i925 lte is a quadcore, are the normal over-clocking apps still as efficient and can handle a quadcore?
Just asking....have a major in computer science, but that was 2 decades ago and now I dont work in ther industry, but I do play with my pc and smartphones and now my new tablet, so I am still kindof litterate.....but as far as coding these things, Im clueless, and not sure how these apps are written and if they take into acount a quad core vs dual cores or single.
I alos have a speed card reader app, dont know if this effects benchmark results, but just thought Id put that out there. So what kindof numbers are you guys seeing? Or anyone that can help educate me better about what Im talking about feel free to help me out.
Thanks guys

Lag on MT3G...how to make ToonWarz run smooth

can somebody please tel me how to make my game Toonwarz run smooth on my mt3g. I unrooted it yeserday because i am getting a 8 gig class 6 sd card tomorrow, but it still runs kind of choppy on my stock phone with 1.6...please help
2 posts about the same thing and both of them are in the wrong forums. This is not Android Development. But here:
1. Download task killer and make sure you don't have any programs open that you don't need. Some of the can be quite a memory hogs.
2. Clear your maps/browser/StreetView/market caches to free up some space.
3. Contact developer with your concerns.
And please... post in the right section next time.
Good luck.
The GPU in that device and all other 1st gen phones are toooo old to play advanced 3D games at smooth frame rates. Newer phones like droid,N1,etc are better at gaming than Magic/Dream/Hero....I played that on magic and dream and it was slow on both...I stick to gbaoid or Snesoid....
iv'e seen people play toon warz on their g1 before and it runs smooth...and plus the processor difference between the mt3g and droid is only 28 mhz or so...so any other way to fix it?

Processor speed isn't everything. The Cortex (Droid) processors have much higher instruction throughput at the same clock speeds than the ARM11 (G1/mT3G).
NOT BUMPING THIS THREAD: Look, you're in the wrong section, you've been given suggestions, and there's not a magic button that will make it suddenly fast, especially on a stock phone. Oh, except make sure that "Settings->Applications->Development->Make phone faster with leprechaun magic" is checked. That gets a lot of people.
how do i fix this then...i have a mytouch3g

Actually after benchmarking few roms htcclays gamercore gives 26fps, some only 19. Try using this rom and set cpu to 528 min/max while playing to make sure it stays at full speed. also use Jit.
Dont use swap or compcache both are slow for gaming, have minor benefits with lots of widgets but slow down over time. You also dont need A2Sd either, running apps from phone memory is faster than any Sd (even class 6)
can you please tell me how to do this if i am re-rooting my phone...so the process from the beginning please

[Q] Where do you see the difference after OC'ing?

I'm not sure that I can really tell the difference between running at 1.5GHz vs 1.0GHz. I certainly don't notice a difference in normal browing through the menus and screens, nor do I see a difference in app loading. Certainly anything web related would be bottle-necked by the connection.
So other than games, which I don't really play at this point, where are you guys seeing a noticeable difference in performance when you overclock?

With such a powerful device OCing really isn't a necessity at all. Even with the OC kernel I find myself perfectly fine at the stock 1Ghz. I guess it's that just "wow" factor that comes with OCing. All the emulators I've used work just fine at the stock speed. Only benefit, IMO, at this point is for bench marking. But still awesome nonetheless

??? Whats that
Distributed computing projects that use extra processor ticks (like when your phone is charging or your computer is setting unused) for scientific research. [email protected] looking for ET's and [email protected] working on disease cures. In effect you are donating the use of your processor to science when you aren't using it. The faster your processor the greater the contribution.

What's with this Dual Core Madness?

We're in the dawn of mobile revolution; I appreciate the effort of Devs for fixing, tweaking, modding just for us to enjoy this phone... however, i have some queries and points about this dual core trend lately?
first is Android itself; i read somewhere that 2.3.4 does have true multi-core support..
quoted from one of the Devs over S2's board
In Androids before 2.3.4 there is no "Real" multicore support. just a sort of SMP "hack". They simply restrict all threads of a process to one core. This is, in some situations, faster in singlecore applications than the real thing. But it requires more power and multicore applications can't profit. In Android 2.3.4 and later, there is a part from Honeycomb in it. True Multicore support.

Did a little more reading, and although Gingerbread 2.3.x is not truly dual core optimized like Honeycomb or the new 2.3.4 , multithreaded programs will still make use of the 2nd core for functions such as garbage collection, background syncing, preloading pages, etc...
Can Devs here shed us some light about this matter?
Based from infos that i gathered here and in S2's board; i think HTC's approach is more efficient (where second core kicks in when the first core is loaded) than that of Samsung (Full time Dual Core)... Why would devs is forcing the second core making it always alive? I mean, Android does run butter smooth with 1ghz single core processor (Xperia Arc and Incridble S for example), so making both cores always on will only have greater battery drain without significant boost in performance?
Instead of turning both cores on, why not just improve HTC's efficient approach?
making second core breath when 75%load of the first core is reach for example or optimize the governor of the second core when assisting the first core?
Please enlighten me...
I agree with you on that this phone is very fast with just the way it is I don't even overclock no need to or nor will I change my stock kernal . I'm good with just letting it do its thing and enjoy my insane battery life and speed on the roms these devs are designing some great work on this board

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Sorry guys... i tried to put some post important points before in Q/A but it seems it was ignored... Mods can transfer this anyways...
Now, most of Devs are diving to this Dual Core thingy...
I salute you guys for making all of this for us but its better if you can share some thoughts about my queries here... itll be a benifit to us users if we know what we are doin and what we get with our device...
Dont get me wrong guys, im no expert thats why im asking all of this...
Madness? This.. is... dual.. core!
On a serious note, i don't think there's anything wrong with people experimenting with trying to get both cpu's to work together. However for a lot of people i get the feeling that it's all about benchmarks. That's all i ever seem to read about these days. Who cares about benchmarks really? They're not important, only real world performance is king imo.
LOL... ala 300?....
Thats my point... its all good if both SW and HW runs hand-onhand...
The phone does seem alot snappier with the second core enabled.

That part only came about because they're trying to get both cores overclocked and get the governors to stick. The devs are trying to figure out aSMP architecture, and it's going to take a bit.

chef of insertcoin baadnewz, i think is already on it. as someone of the forum suggest that is it much better to enhance HTC stock kernel rather than both cpu are active, i tested it and the heat is much faster. also, i think there is a reason to this kernel issue that is why they haven't release a OTA 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 for asia yet IMO.
good to hear that... There's nothing wrong of turning both CPU on as long as its well optimize and efficient (S2 for example with its SMP; im on 30hrs mark with my moderate to heavy usage)... i understand we still have less progress on 2.3.4 build because its still new... MORE POWER to the DEVS..

[Q] About my new tablet

Hey guys, ive just received brand new Asus memo pad as a Christmas present! The thing is I had my Samsung galaxy s3 for quite some time and I really enjoyed it but since both of these systems are operating on android, I cannot seem but feel like I got something that I already have... I know the screen is bigger and it has a lilac more RAM and not to mention Quad core processor! Even my 3 year old laptop has dual core and I have no idea where the heck in the tablet you can use such a processor...
So my question is... is there any awesome stuff that I could use my tablet for, which I cannot use my phone with? And perhaps would it be possible to use some kind of software to boost my laptop's processor when connected to tablet??

Well basically you can enjoy playing games and watch videos even more on a tablet than on a phone.. And those apps that are optimized for Tablets only will take up your entire screen and make use of that by using it to display more texts and information.. And also there are some apps that are for Tablets only - so you can use them too.. And I think that's pretty much it..

Thanks for the reply, since you've mentioned that there are some appsnthat can only run on tablets, I was wondering could you actually name a few?
list of good tablet specific apps
as far as i get your query it is in relation to the abilities of a tablet as compared to a phone
a phone can do anything your tablet can do...but a tablet cant do the same
but.....
1. it has got a bigger screen size so better multimedia experience
2. in my experience a phone screen no matter how big (read less than 6 inches) always feels a bit cramped even when compared to a tablet with a 7 inch screen
3. you've got some great apps out there that look and feel better on tablets than phones
eg. office suite, netflix, kingsoft office, trulia
you wanted to know something you can do with a quad core processor
try these on a quad core and a dual core. you'll get to know the difference pretty fast-
mass effect, modern combat, real football, the dark knight, browsing the internet, watching shows and movies online etc etc
there's a lot to do on tablets
carry one to conferences. believe me it is better to use a tab in a conference than a phone

All these things you've mentioned are PC GAMES... I don't have a quad core PC even tho I wish, what I want to know is what the heck can I do with quad core ON THE TABLET!

Dude, I don't mean to sound rude or anything but go search Google play for these apps... They are available on Android phones and tablets but I find the experience much better on tablets than phones.. That's what I've been trying to tell you
Not just these you'll find many more apps and great games on Google play just like these with great gaming experience and awesome graphics!!!

I have tried but all of these apps are not found on the google play store...
hmmmm...strange
it may be an issue of compatibility. go to www.play.google.com log in there and find these kinda apps. go to the install option, if these apps are compatible with your device you'll be able to send a link to the device. if not, then you can always find an apk here and there and then install them
but remember to pay for them, RESPECT DEVELOPERS ALWAYS
by the way, here and there refers to other app store for eg the amazon app store
good luck with the app hunting

if you can boost your laptop's performance with your tablet, then you should join Microsoft or intel, that should be some parallel computing technology enjoy you tablet with some fantastic games, i guess

can THIS phone use ubuntu touch

hi there, i have a (very likely fake) samsung galaxy S5... and it came with a MASSIVE amount of well.. MALware.. im sorry
but im simply NOT INTERRESTED in playing game of freaking war or clash of titans for that matter.. so... according to
CPU-Z
i have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 3.00 GHZ ( 8 cores ??? )
no idea on the amount of ram sorry
point is.. no matter how many times ive done a device reset or installed malware remover... nothing changes.. the malware
is built INTO this Android OS.. so that being said, i would like to know if its POSSIBLE to root this device ( if so tell
me how please ) and if the processor is sufficient enough to handle Ubuntu Touch.. thank you
mind you if you have any bones to pick with me because i own a FAKE samsung.. kindly bend over and shove your ethical
debate up your you know where...
CHEERS!
