Bad quadrant scores

I have recently purchased my g2x and even though it seems fast it post really bad quadrant scores on all of the different quadrant test. On the benchmark test it was up to 2400 no can't get past 1300. Does this mean one of the processors went out.

No. But how do you check that?

Quadrant Standard sucks for benchmarks. It is inconsistent and gives odd scores, like the time I scored 24000 with my ZIO.... yeah right, this phone is lucky to hit 1080 with our new overclocked kernel
Use AnTutu Benchmark and you should get more consistent scores.

Does the phone feel laggy during normal use? If not I wouldn't wory too much about quadrant scores. Try running a Linpack benchmark. Your score should be in the low 30's.

No it feels like its running great just really low scores all around. Im getting about 18 on linpqck

Yeah i'm experiencing the same thing can't even get past 2000 and when i check quadrant about phone option it says i have one core pretty sure no one screwed up my phone when they shipped it... T__T

I think peoples experiences with Quadrant seem to vary a great deal. I tend to get pretty consistent results from it.

Quadrant Scores

My Skyrocket gets way higher quadrant scores than a friend of mine's OGS2.
3500vs3100
Yet... On every visual test he gets 20fps MORE than I do? Why is his score lower? the phone feels faster than mine.
Thoughts?
Overall I found the OGS2 to be smoother with the animations, etc.

Graphic tests (2D and 3D) are only some parts from the overall Quadrant test (CPU, Memory, I/O, Graphic). If you're using Quadrant Advanced, you could see scores from each test performed.
What if you try other benchmark app such as Antutu ? You'll get more detailed result.

Most probably...
I was shocked to see the results. but in "3d" test, the S2 simply blew the SR out of the water.
And the OS itself seemed more fluid than the skyrocket.

I got 4000 on quadrant with stock Rom.....
Take that OGS2!

both phones are fast in there own way.
but let the pissing contest continue, as you were.

They have different processors or chip sets. (one or both of them. I forget.)

Was that the score from just one part of the test? I ran a couple.. the total score was a little over 6000 for each?
I had read that these scores don't mean that much?? But, hey I'm new to Android..

Strange Observation
Today I received my replacement SR from Amazon and I ran few Quadrant tests and was constantly getting 3000+ score, with highest being 3360. Without installing anything else I just rooted the phone with Easy Root and then re-ran Quadrant test few times and did not get 3000+ score even once. The best I got was 2500. All other scores were between 2200 - 2300.
Any idea why rooting the phone can cause this drop? I also noticed that after rooting, the phone does not feel as snappy as stock.

Its not the root.. Quadrant tests are pointless and the more you run them the less they get.. they are very erratic...
Antu or Cf Bench are much more accurate and true to form.

Antutu or CF might be more accurate but since I use one tool to compare the different ROMS / Phones..... that shouldn't matter.

This is UNTRUE if quadrant its self is not accurate it will only make ur Baseline for tests just as in accurate and false.

Exactly. If you run 10 tests and get 10 greatly varying results then something is wrong haha.
I have this argument with people all the time on quadrant and sleedtest.net (xtremelabs speed test is more consistent)

The problem with quadrant is as if it somehow doesn't scale the processor to full speed. For me it has always been consistent...

ICS stock Sensation is faster then Galaxy Nexus :D

Everything is stock , no overclocking or anything like that

Is that a surprise? isn't sensation better than Nexus? or am i wrong?

Benchmark tests don't always tell the truth.

Tired of those benchmark noobs.

ok, forget the benchmark...
I tried a galaxy nexus...is very very very laggy, is not even smooth or fast...
our sensation is the best smartphone of the dual core generation (we are switching now on quad generation), better than sgs2 too!....

The Snapdragon S4 based phones disagree

Pikabat I axpected more from you =\ as you can see in the benchmark the nexus have much better CPU (the blue stat) and sensation only have better I/o (the green one) which is obvious why... So no, sensation isn't faster...

this thread is so lol
first of all 2700 is low
second of all, that quadrant graph has not been updated since they added dual/quad core support
so thats galaxy nexus running 1 core test
check my screenshot for some sensation power, 1512mhz gets 3700 points
was with openSensation btw

My phone just sucks in benchmarks . Quadrant cant get over 3000 mark. Antutu usaly 6800+ on 1.5 ghz. But no lag in programs and in the interface, but seeing this score im thinking something is not ok with it.

Lmao... I have bolth Sensation (my wife's) and the SGS 2.. and yes the pyramid is a good phone. It lacks a good bit in 3D performance ..
I know the 2 devices have the same S3 chip set but Sammy definitely did better implementing it.. Though I tend to not trust quadrant I score over 3200 with no overclock on my SGS 2.. just saying .. not to mention my buddy has a GNex and that shiz is fast...

Sorry to disappoint you bro
Believe it or not I prefer higher I/O because I deal with large file transfers.
Benchmark may not be accurate 100% but I used both devices and Sensation is faster. For me anyways

Its inflation. Quadrant is notorious for this. R/RW speed between the current devicesis pretty much the same, especially when they are all on custom ext4 partitions .. Hence why you can run 4 benchmarks and get 4 different scores .. notice the CPU and graphics numbers don't really flux to much...
Hate to break it to you bro. But the Sensation will never be faster than a GNex or any SGS 2 version. Don't get me wrong I love the device. But it is what it is..

Who gives a F**k.
We have what we have, be happy! Its not about the size of your e-penis, its the fleshy one that counts.
Enjoy

you all realize that quadrant is only good for comparing devices with the same screen resolution, right?
The Gnex is running at a much higher resolution and becuase of that the scores will be lower in Quadrant.
Quadrant runs at the phones native resolution so the gnex has to work harder... I cant believe people still use this as their proof....

why does mu dual core S3 beat my Note 10. in Quadrant?

One of the big reasons I got the note 10.1 was its quad core processor. But in Quadrant my s3 wins. See the pics. What could it be? The note 10.1 pic is in landscape, S3 in portrait

S3 cpu has 9942 points, note 10.1 cpu has 13154 points in your tests. But where did you get dual core S3? All S3 based on exynos has quad core.

But those S3 models built on qualcomm soc. I just thinked that OP compare two devices on exynos.
For example add my result, use redemption rom

The us s3's have a dual core A15 s4 chip. Which is a way better architecture and is more efficient.... It's not always how many cores my friend.

Most phones with same specs can easily beat tablets due to the large screen the tablet has to handle

My GS3 did jump 500 points in Quadrant after getting JB, my N10.1 is still ICS. Did u install the German ROM or u got a US one preloaded with JB?

screen size does not necessarily mean more pixels and therefore a lower score, the S3 and the Note 10.1 have the same screen density so that shouldn't be an issue.
I would be surprised to hear the inferior US dual core version beats the International quad to be honest.

The s3 has over 300ppi, note 10.1 like 160. I only forgive that cuz of the quad core and stylus or I woulda done nexus 10.

Krait is not a15... Qualcomm uses the arm instruction set not design, a15 is a design. Krait is between a9 and a15 in performance. Qualcomm designs their own chips (from the ground up) and use ONLY the armv7 instruction set, so a Qualcomm chip will never be a cortex a chip

Everyone really needs to stop using quadrant, it is easily tricked. One of the simplest ways to increase score is a better storage format like ext4. Quadrant has a heavy emphasis put on I/O performance. You may also have power save mode on. CPU in exynos is slower on a per core base but will do better in multi thread apps. GPU between the 2 is about equal.
Also exynos is slightly faster than a standard cortex a9 because Samsung modified the design to increase per core performance just a bit

Meaning that the S4 is a damned powerful chip. That being said, turn off power saving mode and re-run quadrant.
I have an AT&T Galaxy S3. It has the S4 and 2GB of RAM.
My S3 scored 5640.
My Note 10.1 scored 6285.

Yeah very impressive numbers. Mine were 24.5k and 12.5k on antutu then quadrant. Super fast but that doesnt explain why the HTC one store demo is way faster than my s4. I am thinking about keeping my note 2 honestly.
