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,
It's been 10 days that I have a Z5. After testing all, I told myself I was going to test the core of Snapdragon following the "problems" of the z3 +.
I am quite troubled. I use Folding @ home to test the operation of cores. The 8 cores It Works together have only a few seconds. 6 core (4 A53 and A57 both) Few minutes. And after-3 minutes, only 4 A53 and 1 A57 at 800mhz Work. In games it is a bit the same. To this are normal ? For me it is not a true OctoCore. Do you think there will solutions to force the use all core ?
Thanks

In simple terms; it is down to the app to decide how many cores to use. The app is programmed in such a way to utilize X amount of cores. When you run older apps what were written for 1 and 2 core processor phones they will use 1 and 2 cores.
So yes, not using all cores is normal. When everybody is using an octo-core processor phone, apps will use all 8 cores at the most efficient level.

Thanks to you answer. But i kown that. Folding is an app that use all core. I think Sony quickly disables core to avoid overheating. For me it's not normal. Z5 never use 8 core more than few secondes
Slightly offtopic but is there many other apps that would use all cores to test?

Yes (normaly) apps Benchmark test single cpu, (instruction, optimization) en all cpu like Antutu, GeekBench 3 ect....

Antutu will use all cores available to it but try running successive benchmarks and you'll soon notice that the scores drop lower and lower as the phone heats up. Now I don't know if cores are being disabled or the clocks are just lowered but either way, you can't use all 8 cores at full speed for long...

Yes agree. i'm slightly disappointed on this point. That all ^^
See now I just recently got the Z5 over my half broken z3 cause it's a 8 core vs the 4 core in the z3, but even with Antutu it only uses 4 cores, even when they're completely maxed out. I've pretty much gone from a 2.5 ghz cpu to a 1.5, it is they programs are not reading it or they're just not being used?
It's kind of infuriating really, if they won't be used ever I will send it back and get a higher clocked 4 core cpu phone.
Some times core 4 is used, slightly, would a custom rom be able to fix the issue with core not being used??
Benchmarking software should be able to max out all cores on a cpu.
I use lenovo vibe p1a42 which have Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615 with octa core processor. When I viewed the CPU on cpuz and droid info apps, I found that the cores 5,6,7,8 never go to idle. They are always clocking at minimum of 800 MHz even when I don't open any app. While the cores 1,2,3,4 clock and stop normally.
What do you think about that? . Do I have a problem?
Hi there! Any devs here?
Maybe anyone knows why in few games Adreno CANT BE on 100% usage?
For example: my phone is Pocophone F1. SD845, Adreno 630. Usage in any benchmark at 100%. Minecraft: 414 Mhz (instead of 710 Mhz - max for MIUI kernel), 80%, 50% usage in total.
At the same moment Mali at 100% usage with a LOT bigger FPS. Same with GTA:SA, possibly Modern Combat 5. What's happening? Any fix?
Maybe game devs should do something like PC game devs do?: (enable NVidia Optimus, bad example btw) vOptimusEnablement = 0x00000001 (just an example).
P.S. Oops, forgot. Throttling disabled, 5 minutes in CPU Throttle Test shows no difference (5min enough for this because the game started lag at the whole start).
All programming instructions ( whether they are graphic information or not ) are first processed by the CPU: if the CPU recognizes that they are graphics commands, they are delegated to the GPU. Unlike a CPU - which has only a few cores - a GPU has hundreds of cores.
Throttling the CPU only makes things worse.

As i said there's NO throttle. Fully disabled. That's happening on any Kernel. Idk what is this, Adreno-related thing, no problems at Mali with that.

Of course. Maybe Adreno-drivers need something for this? To say to CPU "Hey, this is an application that needs a lot of GPU power"?

An app neither speaks to CPU nor to GPU: an app's program code gets loaded into RAM, then read in from there by CPU and sequentially processed.
What are you talking about, lol? The game cannot use GPU. It needs something. Maybe some function to call, idk exactly.
You're speaking about completely another thing that i know for almost 12 years, lmao.
Still waiting for any answer. Few games cannot load a GPU. Only on Adreno, Mali GPUs are good.
My last 2 cents here:
A GPU is a processor with hundreds of cores: a game never can load a GPU, it only makes use of it.
For an ideal situation, your device's CPU usage should remain in the 60% to 80% range (up to 90%), and device's GPU usage at 99% or 100%. One of the main causes of low GPU usage is due to CPU bottleneck. It means that you have an under-powered CPU that is not able to keep up with GPU's performance.
A temporary workaround for this problem is to raise a game's resolution to highest if you haven’t done it already. This will cause device's GPU to work more and it will have much higher utilization than before.
Take note that not all games use all the CPU cores. It can be possible that you are getting high usage on two cores only, and others are just not used at all. AFAIK GTA SA makes use of only 2 cores, COD also makes use of only 2 cores, , but PUBG makes use of 4 cores,
What the hell are you talking about?
Is there any CPU bottleneck im talking about?
NO. NO. AND NO. ADRENO-RELATED, HUH?
Pls, stop it, my chair burns. You dont understand a single thing that i need - ADRENO CANT HANDLE A GAME.
Looks like a joke...
Actually, I'm not interested in your problem at all.
Your posts show that you don't understand how CPU and GPU work together.
Here I'll explain it to you:
The GPU's memory consists of a series of registers. These permit the CPU to access the GPU's memory and instruct the GPU to perform operations. It's the CPU what loads the graphics instructions ( OpenGL ES ) to get executed into GPU's memory.
Simplified: the CPU feeds the GPU.

My post shows that GPU cant handle few games. All Adreno's. GG guys, open your eyes
Still waiting for useful info. For now stop showing your brilliant mind with yours "i think you..."
After a time and with using of a simpleperf i got more info. Playing Half-Life 2:
CPU Usage 12.12% /vendor/lib/egl/libGLESv2_adreno.so
Symbol: !!!0000!f56be09eb88f86833124f1df42e945!95db91f!
Mali HAS NO that problem. Completely.
