Quadrant score going down

I was running scores of over 2k each run.. running perfect storm 1.3v and bamf 4.3b kernel. I updated to 4.42. Delete the cache in setup CPU.. and auto set it to abt 1400+ now my phone is constantly running in he 1700 quadrant... Someone please help..
edit* sometimes when i run quadrant the cpu section won't even calculate and jumps directly to the second test... omg

Why are you so concerned with what Quadrant says? Your last paragraph sounds as though you spend hours running Quadrant over and over lol. Just enjoy the phone!

this is my first android, so i'm seeing how every rom and every kernel can effect the the speed.. but now i'm running sub scores, and i feel like maybe this kernel isn't as good.. i tried flashing back to 4.3b.. but no luck, i feel like there is something wrong with the phone

When you are flashing are you doing a factory wipe, cache wipe and dalvik wipe. That may help. As for the 1700 that is what I am getting on a cleaned stock rooted rom. My phone is fast. Once you get into overclocking I feel it effects the life on the phone, but that is just my opinion.

Thus has gotten misinterpreted on the web. Quadrant scores are meaningless between devices. One phone could get low scores but be optimized to run smooth and fast. While some other device could get high scores but be optimized poorly and run bad.
HOWEVER, scores do have meaning compared within the same phone model. A thunderbolt vs thunderbolt has meaning. It foes show the performance of how well the phone can do tasks like dcriol a list, crunch thru some JavaScript or HTML, or load a game.
I see everyone say benchmark test scores are meaningless, and that original statement meant "meaningless between different models", but not comparing within the same model.
A nexus one on gingerbread only gets 1000 on quadrant, and its slower and choppy scrolling lists. But the nexus one on froyo gets 1650 easily, and froyo was way smoother scrolling lists etc. The lower score shows its reduced performance ability to do various tasks, and it shows in actual use.

very true but some kernels have various tweaks that can inflate quadrant scores...also on the droid x you could blow up quadrant by disabling stage fright. these phones are so fast it's hard to tell the difference. i've tested just about every kernel and overclocked all the way to 2.06 and the phone goes from really fast... to really really fast... to overheating and unstable lol
i use linpack and cpu benchmark to compare kernels and overclock/governor settings...pretty much gave up on quadrant

Quadrant means nothing... If you can run this piss out of your phone and not make it stall... Its fast enough.

That should be good. I agree that something about that kernel might be suspect.
If you're bored, try the kernel that I'm running. Option to overclock to 1.4 or 1.9 depending on which you select, Good battery life, and stable. 1.4 gets 23XX on quad and the 1.9 gets people 2700-3000. No cheating too.

[Q] Infuse 4g Performance Issue?

I've recently tried the Quadrant Standard Benchmark and noticed that my phone's score is severely lower than that of other reviewer's benchmarks? I usually score between 960-1060. Any Idea why I'm not getting into the 1100s? Even my brother's Infuse reached 1300.

Quadrant scores necessarily don't mean squat. But just out of curiosity, what have you done to your phone? Are you running the stock shipped ROM?

I've just rooted it. Bricked it. Used the ultimate Unbrick for Rogers Infuse 4g. Now here I am. One thing I've thought of is space since I have lots of games but eve when I removed almost all of my downloaded Apps. The score hardly improved. I'm wondering whether for those games(mainly Gameloft) where they require a larger download to fully install, when you uninstall those games are the rest of the files from the extra download still on ur phone taking up space?

To be honest, if you're not noticing any lag then all should be fine. I recommend running a custom ROM. pretty much all the infuse roms convert your system to ext4 which is much faster than stock. If you need help with anything don't hesitate to ask, but in the right forum

Apps don't influence ur score much. These scores are based on how ur CPU, GPU and memory works, not based on how apps work.
Repeat the quadrant a couple times in a row. First run always seems to give lower values. After 1-2 runs, take average of next 2-3 and you will get the proper score.
Reboot your phone, give it some time to settle, and then run quadrant.
But like pointed above, stock ROMs give lower scores than custom mainly cos of faster file system. Plus, I enabled GPU based graphics by updating my build.xml and am getting about 1800 with my clock set at max 800.

apps running in the background can consume resources and affect the score. also rogers roms tend to score lower. it was that way on the captivate too. btw what's a build.xml? do you mean build.prop?
and to the op your score is in line with what you can expect. if you dont have any specific issues i wouldnt worry about it. quadrant is soo sensitive to atleast 2 areas (encoding/decoding media and file system reads) but not others that you can take an infuse to 4200 but it isnt gonna do too much that it didnt do before.

They really don't!! Neither does Antutu or Linpack.. Gives you a different number every time LOL!! But Definitely look at some of the other roms out there! The few dev's we have left need all the support we can give them!! THANKS INFUSE DEV's!!!!

really curious regarding quadrant dropping,a lot..

upon first receiving my skyrocket quadrant scores were 3700+ .. well after a superoneclick root the next day I test again and well what do ya know :slaps forehead: the score is 3100 or so.
what.in.the.world .
nothing is running that wasn't before did it exactly the same, reboot and kill excess running apps with the built in task manager.
ugh so any thoughts on this

What I realized was that rebooting a phone and doing a quadrant benchmark will always yield scores in the low 3's or high 2's. 20 minutes after rebooting, I run quadrant, and I always get 3700-3900. This tells me, that the phone has a lot of background processes it runs for a long time after it has booted. Just don't bother doing any benchmarks during this time.
I once saw 4000+. Had to take a screen capture of it.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Unless you are seeing a drop in actual performance i.e. laggy scrolling or browsing. Benchmark scores are not the tell-all when your trying to measure your phone. They give you a ballpark range of performance.

well coming from an x10 all I feel is 'now THIS is how myyyy phone should run' not even a need to install custom roms or anything .
Ive been hugging my skyrocket nite nite nightly for the past month or so , even the occassional bedtime story once in awhile fellas ...
just was wondering how rooting it the other day (yes, those roms are indeed calling) seemingly caused a drop in points.
I thought it may have been TiBackup but it wasn't even running as it always did upon startup on my x10
thanks for chiming in ​

a 600 point drop is not that much. my scores fluctuate from 2900-3800 all the time.
if you really wana impress people try this: http://www.androidcentral.com/how-cheat-android-benchmarks
i got a 5200 lol

wow load quadrant into memory though how nasty. oh btw after rebooting and letting phone settle 30 minutes as suggested , browsing pages and only clearing the caches in dolphin mini and opera mobile I got an oh so solid 2700 on quadrant .
my software is interacting it's arse off ,truly. ​

how is my sig looking :/
​ hey where is it! lol smh
EDIT: not good

After the quadrant app updated, my score dropped...
From Dee-Hos's Skyrocket...

see dee you didn't load it into memory :/
load dat dere brah
now I'm getting 3800 of so with a custom rom pffff. it was impressive on x10 going from 700-800 to 1100-1200 knowing the custom rom worked magic even before bench app tests were done, kind of a moot point with the skyrocket ey
thanks guys

[Q] Why are my quadrant scores low?

Okay so, my tf700 is running CleanRom 2.5.5 Inheritance with the over clocked kernal
and i keep getting scores around 6000 and under
while in performance mode
am i doing something wrong

Do you have gpu 2D rendering turned on?
Found under settings/developer options...

No idea. Have you tried taking a TBU and (maybe even clean) install 2.6 and 2.6.1 (patch over 2.6)?
PS: what mods did you choose? And how much did you manage to get when in Performance Mode?

Low score... it used to be pretty damn high for the TF700T... times change, I guess
Don't let the benchmarks bother you, tbh.

Where do you want to be with benchmarks?
Are you wanting high numbers or are you good with smooth stable UE?

its well documented, quadrant can be fooled, you can have a custom rom thats built specifically for quadrant and it will bench much higher than other roms but in real use its much slower. Go for smooth and stable. Basically, just use your tablet and if you like where its at dont complain, quadrant is just a number, theres no FEELING behind it. Higher number does not always mean better experience.

6200 with force GPU rendering on is great! How does it feel to use?

Thanks for the responses guys
I was thinking if i wipe it completely and do a clean install it would be better, sounds like a good idea anyway
i was comparing my scores to what everyone else was saying and what it showed in the thread for that rom
i always ran quadrant in performance mode and made sure i had more than 400mb free of ram
i stayed with some default setting on the DPI and launcher, but i chose clemsyns kernal with the GPU at 700
and i left fsync enabled
Some people said it hit 7000
if it doesn't matter i wont worry about it
but i will say my tablet is much quicker then before, i have a few hiccups that i believe are caused by some apps
is it possible that apps in the background can cause the low scores?

CM10 problem!!

I just flashed the latest CM10 build and I'm getting really low quadrant scores down to 3500 and I'm getting artifacts on Dead trigger. Is this normal?

As much as well as love high benchmarks, benchmarks aren't always a great indication of real world performance. For the artifacts you are getting on Dead Trigger try clearing the apps cache, uninstalling and re-installing, and running Fix Permissions. If that doesn't work try a factory reset, and if that still doesn't fix it re-flash the ROM.

Thanks but I got better scores on stock ICS, if it's normal then I'm good. I'll try that app but if it doesn't work then I'm gonna reflash. also I'm new to flashing and all that, but if I want to flash another ROM I just do the same procedure of factory reset/wiping data/format system/flash?

Alright I fixed it, had to go to the developer section and disable hardware overlay. I'm still concerned about the incredibly low benchmark scores, it went down to 2800, is that normal?

That's odd that the scores are that low, but as long as actuall performance is smooth I wouldn't pay much attention to it.

Benchmarks are useless, don't judge a rom based on the benchmark score. Real world performance is what matters, if your phone is perfectly fast in the real world then it doesn't matter what the benchmark score says.
