Hi guys
I downloaded the quadrant standard application on my Captivate. Looking into the system info i observed the following
1. CPU : samsung cortex v7. I thght the processor was a v8? I dunno whether the processor info is right.
2. The processor speed is displayes as "800 MHz"
Max freq ; 1000 MHz
MIN freq : 800 MHz
Whatz going on here?
Can someone explain this?
Please run the benchmark and lef me know!

the 800mhz I would assume means it is throttled down.
My results...
Name: ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v71)
Current freq: 800 MHz
Max req: 1000MHz
Min freq: 100 MHz

Just ran the benchmark and got the same thing. Please don't tell me this thing is underclocked. if so is there a program out there that will bring it up to speed?
The processor is a Samsung S5PC110 Cortex-A8 and uses the ARM v7 instruction set. It's not a version 8.
there is an APp to change your CPU clock. Don't do it though, nothing on android requires those extra 200 MHz yet. If your thinking about UI Lag, this is a software issue and not a consequence of the throttled cpu. Hang tight for a fix from developers.
With the software fix and throttled down cpu, this phone is still faster than the newest phones running 2.2 (Froyo)
SetCPU will let you force the frequency. But you shouldn't need to use it, 800MHz just seems to be the Hummingbird's idle frequency. The CPU probably just idled while the graphical benchmarks were being run.
CPU in phones never runs at 100% at all times that would kill battery , you can force it if you root your phone but that is counter productive , as it goes from anywhere from 1% to 100% of its speed when it needs to , during intensive usage or benchmarking it will reach 1000mhz , but if all you do is read text it will conserve battery.
Its obvious from this info below
Current freq: 800 MHz
Max req: 1000MHz
Min freq: 100 MHz
Yes, the Cortex A8 is an ARM7 processor. The older CPU's used were ARM11 processors.
Thankx for the info guys..
I checked again and for some reason i got confused with the processor and was writing the post from memory (my memory ). it says ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v71).
And yes i do think the 800 MHZ is pretty fast.
I just need to get rid of the samsung UI and switch to stock android.

The spec sheet lists 1 GHz, and spec sheets show the operating frequency so I would assume that the CPU can run at different speeds for different workloads. Try running a couple heavy applications in the background and check it again. If all is well in the world it should clock upto 1 GHz.

The processor is NOT 800mhz it's just throttled down to 800mhz cause of not needing the full 1ghz speed. That saves power and battery life gets extended. Laptops and desktops do the same thing.
so in other words it basically adjusts oh and also maybe the ARMv7 infrastructure is better then the 11 one
yes i do get the idea

I do get the idea!.. i inquired about it bcoz nowhere it was mentioned that the processor was underclocked.. So basically the ideal processor speed is 800MHz and it can be overclocked to 1GHz is the way i see it!
sorta like that more like the speed auto adjust to your needs i think
So what kind of scores does this phone get in comparison to other new Android phones with or without 2.2. I am curious between the Quandrant scores of Hummingbird (Galaxy S), OMAP (Droid X), Snapdragon (HTC HD2/EVO 4G).
Thanks.
well the hummingbird beat the evo 4g in graphics and cpu power just search captivate benchmarks on youtube the channel name is androidandme
with mimocans lag fix ive seen people get scores as high as 1700(nexus one on 2.2 gets about 1250).

Hi,
So I have honor 6 H60_L04 rooted .
I have better battery stats installed.
When I look at the CPU states, the maximum state it goes to is only 1.3ghz. I know this phone has like dual quad core, 1 for heavy processing, another for daily/light activities.
I've tried using performance mode, running antutu benchmarks, but the 1.7ghz state doesn't seem to appear at all under the statistic.
I've also tried normal power state mode.
Do you know any idea how to activate the fasterr processor?

honor 6 has two sets of quadcore processors(arm big.little configuration)
the cpu apps shows only the frequencies of little i.e, the little 1.3ghz processor and not the bigger 1.7ghz set
see cpu z app if you have any doubts
I believe the kirin architecture uses 4 cortex A15 cores and four energy efficient A7 cores. During normal use the A7s run at a max of 1.3ghz (fine for general use) and the A15 cores are under clocked. Then for intensive use (gaming etc) the A15 cores run at 1.7ghz
Here is an attached screen shot of my cpu-z
At the bottom of the screen, it says interactive governor.
But i did plenty of antutu benchmarks. Shouldn't that work the A15 cores to 1.7ghz? Or is better battery stats not showing me the second quadruple cores states?

More than likely BBS only reading the A7 cores. In CPU-Z for example, if I constantly click the square task button in the navigation bar and then click CPU-Z I can see the speed go up to 1.7Ghz.
Also until/unless Huawei release the kernel source there won't be any ability to overclock unfortunately... which is frustrating as the A15 can easily be clocked to 2GHz :crying:

Coool.. Thanks alot! The A15 does go up to 1.5Ghz+++ when i spam the screen or buttons while in CPU-Z. So it is BBS then that is not tracking the A15 cores. Thanks agaiN!
Both cpuz and CPU spy report 1500 mhz as max speed for the processor. Is this normal?
Yes. Ish. The phone has 2 processor chips clocked at different speeds. One for general pottering about, and the other for heavy stuff. But for some reason, apps only report what they are told about the light weight processor, which is at 1.5Ghz.
But on CPU-Z, I was able to catch a glimpse of the other 4 cores of the heavy duty ones touch 2100Mhz (2.1Ghz) briefly. So the phone does perform correctly, but the apps themselves don't report the info as we'd like/expect with a 2 processor device. Yet.
Hello. I want to build a kernel with undervoltage . But I can not find a table of frequency and voltage ratios . Do not tell me where to get to Snapdragon 615 processor ?
My Lenovo tablet (TB-J716F) has an issue with its clockrates. It refuses to clock the Snapdragon 870 CPU cores over 1ghz and the Adreno-GPU stays at 300mhz locked, even tho temperatures do not exceed 40C, unless it detects that a benchmark is running. I found something to manually adjust CPU clocks on my rooted device. Is there such a thing for the GPU?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
