[Q] having issues after running cm7 rc1 to stock - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ive noticed that my quadrant score have gone down a lot.. max i can get is 1800 which i use to get a little over 1900. but most of the time i get around 1500 now.. then all my downloaded apps i noticed keeps disappearing so it shows i have no apps installed which is odd.. is there anyway to fix this?? i would appreciate it if someone can help me out.. thanks
i was running
cm7 rc1 then i wanted to go back to stock but i didn't want to unroot my phone so i left it rooted (s off).
i did this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=863899 but i started from 9 and everything worked and i stayed rooted but like i said i cant figure out why my apps disappear in the market and my quadrant scores went down pretty good..

Sound to me liked you never wiped you phone between flashing.
And any Quadrant score is not accurate. My quadrant.floats around 2100 but this phone feels so much smother than quadrant is leading me to believe it is.

Total Noob Here. Why isn't my rooted G1 faster?

I rooted my G1 and installed CyanogenMod 6 because I wanted my phone to be as fast as this guys:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVeKboqn6LU
Problem is that mine isn't as fast as his. In Linpack I only get about 2.0 MFLOPS (average), but in the video he got like 3.5 MFLOPS and he said that sometimes it goes up to four. The highest I've seen mine go up to is 2.5. Also, there is a lag when I go to the home screen. It takes a few seconds to load. It doesn't feel much faster than it was before I rooted. So I'm a total noob at this. I just rooted my phone tonight following the directions on this board. Can you guys help me make my G1 faster?
Could try disapling dithering and enabling comcache / jit
Menu > Settings > Cyanogenmod settings > Performance (I think its in there)

To be honest our phones just don't have the horse power to be blazing fast. If you look, he is only using 1 widget and its hard to say exactly how he has it setup. Most of what he shows is just flicking back and forth. You should look at the 2 threads Firerat has going in the development section. Make sure you read at least the first post 2 or three times to make sure you understand what things do and why. Some things will speed your phone up some will not. A lot of this is just how it "feels" to you. Good luck.

He is using JIT probably with a High Swap Part also and a task killer and autokiller running in the back. JIT gives you high numbers on Linpack right around 4. Thats what I am getting on Speedteam Froyo V2.0 with JIT enabled.
Honestly, if you want a "fast phone", use Android 1.6
Hey thanks for the responses guys. I am now using SuperD and I love it. It is fast and I feel like I can use this phone for a few more months now.

[Q] quadrant standard slow

My wife's phone runs quadrant standard really slow it takesb like 5 minutes to run with rooted vibrant and lag fix. Plus it's only registering about 750. Please help.
That's normal if you haven't installed a LagFix. Its not a bad thing either, the phone is still plenty fast.
and if you don't want to root and apply the fix, just wait until the froyo update comes out. your numbers then should drastically improve and of course, so should the overall speed.

If you're still getting that low of a score, clearly something went wrong with the fix. I would use odin and restore a stock image and then start over if it were me.

That's NOT normal... It never took my Vibrant or my wife's 5 minutes to run the Quadrant tests, before or after the fix.

Which lag fix did you perform cuz the one I performed has my Quadrant scores no lower the 2100? Something went wrong with whatever you did.
Here is what I did with mine and I am now at about 1400 quadrant. I didnt use any lag fix at all. I simply loaded a clean rom copy via oden and then loaded vibrant4. The only change I made was to replace the framework-res.apk file in vibrant4 with the stock one in order to stop the reboots caused by the battery fix.
Thats it been rock solid stable for days now.

Do I have a quadrant lemon?

My wife got a shift on release day and i played with it all the time before I got mine yesterday. I was getting 1650 in quadrant on her shift 100% stock no temp or perm root nothing removed ... so yesterday I get my shift, root it right outta the box and kill apps and run quadrant and my highest score is 1340 did rooting it slow it down or did I get a lemon? I havend RUU'd but I factory reset a few times with the same result... on a weird note I know that some peoples phones weren't able to handle the full 1.5 OC but mine does fine and pulls 2275 in quadrant with miui...weird huh?

I had the same drop from about 1600 to 1300 after rooting it. I always knew when I ran visionary the performance was crap. Didn't really notice any slowness, just saw the numbers from quadrant.
I will check the wifes shift when she gets home (hers is rooted now too) and see if she has the same thing.

Since rooting?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
z4root doesn't seem to be much better. I'm temprooted with z4root and just got 1328. Prerooting I /think/ it was in the 1500 range.
Weird. I've also got a drop vs unrooted stock. With current Quadrent (1.7.1) I get in the 1300's. With previous version (1.5.1) I get 1400's. Out of the box I had 1500 - 1600.
^ Shift Faced
sigh..people still use quadrant? if you don't use pro version you can't tell what exactly is dropping or where the difference is..not to mention its flawed..
Try Smartbench 2010 and/or GLBenchmark
Can we just autodelete any posts that start with "sigh"? They never contribute to the conversation.

I still get in the 1500-1600s perm rooted, usually capping out around 1645. Only thing I didn't do was install the recovery or flash any ROMs. Just froze the apps I didn't want to see in titanium. I also deleted Visionary but that's it. Everything else was the same as before I rooted. I never used my phone in temp root mode though. I went from stock to perm root without doing any performance tests.
I'm running miui oc 1.5g and my first couple tries were in the 2200s, downloaded the new version that just came out, played with it again this morning and I've been getting around 1900, I think the new version that came out may be causing it, version 1.1.7
whoever has an older version, can they pull the apk and let those who are getting 'lower scores' try it and see if the results are the same or not

What are you talking about? I contributed in saying that you can't base your assumptions on 1 benchmark..mostly a flawed one..in his case he lost "Quadrant Score" but Quadrant Score is vague as there is CPU, IO, 2D, 3D, Memory..
so there is n way to isolate the issue..unless you either use Quadrant Pro or another benchmark...because it can also be another Flaw in Quadrant too..if not you can figure out what exactly is being effected...
But you are right, we should autodelete posts that don't contribute to the discussion..like this guy:

Cpu is down a little. But I/O and 2D are down quite a bit from when I was running the stock rom, both around half. I'm kind of curious why that is. I'm wondering if its because now I'm on the Deodexed rom and not stock maybe? On a side note I was able to get 2517 on the 1.5ghz OC kernel and Desire ROM though.
Some people know it all I guess

Running the same benchmark on the same phone will tell you something, though. It may not tell you exactly where, but something is suffering.

I noticed that when I updated quadrant today, my score dropped from around a 1600 to between 1300 and 1400.

i only got 6.9 mflops on my x10 benchmark!

Hello folks,
I just tried to benchmark my x10 with linpack and got only 6.8 or 6.9 mflops. is this normal, is there anything i can do to make it get a higher score?
I'm using the latest .435 firmware and rooted and have all the junk pps from the 'x10 junk apps' thread removed from my phone.
Thanks for any help.
How does the phone perform? Are you satisfied with it or does it lag considerably? A benchmark really means nothing other than bragging rights. If it feels fast and feels good then why worry about mflops?

whether you updated via flashtool or through seus or pc companion, to optimize your phone is very simple especially if not wanting to root or install custom roms. download latest flash tool, once installed and up and running. make sure your phone is set on debug mode. connect to usb and plug into comp. though you may not want the apps that are in the custom folder. hit the customize button, you can remove them later. you will now notice that the optimize button is now highlighted in black. click on that button and let it install the files. This installs JiTv2 Files. this will bring mflops up and quad scores up. it however will not give very high scores. quad will be around 800-850 tops. mflops will be increased to about 20-30 maybe 35. notice on quad when running the rotating planets test. you might hit 33fps!!! instead of the supposed 30 that its only suppose to get. if you run neocore test you might only peg and 25-28. Good Luck!!
-OP
try running the test again after the unit has settled down (no activity for a while). you might get different results.
hit the customize button, you can remove them later. you will now notice that the optimize button is now highlighted in black. click on that button and let it install the files. This installs JiTv2 Files

Hi SErooted,
thank you for your helpfull respond. i pressed the customize and then the optimize button like you said and the phone rebooted and the result was better. linpack now get about 32 and some change, quadrant about 757, and neocore about 21fps, shouldn't neocore get better frame rate than this?
can i get it even faster than this?
i have heard about clearing the dalvik chache when installing JIT for the first time. well i didn't clear any cache when i press that customize or optimizer button. did it do it automatically or do i still have to do it manually?
what i wanted was to have the interface and games run fluid and smooth. like no studder at all.
does the processor throttle down when the system is at idle?
should i overclock?
also, i have notice the video recording in hd mode have less studdering now. though its still there, but less. do you think it probably have anything to do with the memory card performance. i'm still using the stock 8gb that originally came with the phone.
My score for mflops is always around 39 and my highest is 40+

hello Michael7168,
thank you for your respond to my message. can you please elaporate more on your statement. is this an x10 you using? i would like to get this result too.
furthermore, i prefer not to use custom firmware at the moment as i use this phone frequently day-to-day and i need to have full functionality of it and reliably. custom firmware are still buggy and lacks some functionality of the phone that i still find usefull for my daily task. but if there is a better custom firmware that really does utilize all of the phone functionality, then please point me in that direction.

Hello xxcysxx,
yes neocore normally runs higher scores. round about 27-28 avg. i personally havent ran a stock firmware since right around mid december. i have alternated with a few and have finally settled on z.s 2.2b4. and have checked all roms available to find which is best. and custom firmware is sometimes shere you get the desired result. i have done some testing on my x10 with various settings and roms and will be happy to share with you what i have going on. my phone is very responsive. quad scores as of ten minutes ago was 2011 without having overclock widget installed. if yo install overclock widget and max out on screen and off screen min and max to 998mhz, you can achieve slightly higher quad scores. but really not needed if you follow settings below. i have a free app from market sysctl. it works!! not sure if you have read the thread on it yet but if not i will have to post there as i have found perfect settings for performance but at cost of battery drain. install if you have root, if not, the call to root is yours.
if interested.... download sysctl from market.

like i said performance not battery. i know for battery saving settings set these numbers close to what the default are. the lower the better battery, the higher, performance.
if you are really worried about daily performance and custom roms.... when/if you decide. i recommend eminence for 2.1 theme of your choice but i really dig bitsnackers theme its awsome and who wouldnt think a tron looking buzzlightyear isnt cool? its awsome. has a cool bootlogo too. all phone funstionality is there video, camera, flash. EVERYTHING!!
BELOW>>> Optimized, xrecovery, root<<<< ENABLED
if you are interested in a 2.2 rom which really does boost speed on phone and what not. i recommend z's 2.2beta4 as video is not working as of yet you might hold off. if you dont use video you should be ok with camera for now and that works. install gappsfreex10, z's data2sd, and theme of your choice. i like xfx10 cant remember name of creator (sorry) but this theme is great! all of theme are great to be honest this is just the one i use.
2.3 roms are out and they are snappy alone without having any adjustments, however there are things that dont work, camera is really the only thing i can think of right now. but by this time it might be fixed, cant say havent checked status but will when done replying.
you can install and run sysctl on these roms as well and gives great boost.
update: not sure if this is a result of sysctl or problems due to network overrun... mflops as of now are 3.2 i normally run 38+. Mmmmm, I wonder?
update 2: double checked after a little while and low mflops was due to network overload not settings. also once upon reboot from my settings i have a quad score of 2233. screen shot below. mflops picked back up but yet are not as high as usual 34.xx
as well to answer on dalvik cache... yes clear cache and also install cache cleaner from market. i have mine set to clear every twelve hours. when installing custom rom not always a case but recommend to wipe user data as well. a few minutes to reset your phone and make sure everything smooth is worth doing this. as well, clear battery stats.
either way, let me know what you guys think and if these settings help.

if it is a modified sony ericsson 2.1 stock firmware with a different theme, then i'm not interested.
however, if it is a fully ported open source 2.1 android firmware, (not tamper with by sony ericsson) then this is good news. i really hope it is this!

i have a question about xrecovery.
are you familiar with bare metal restore, acronis true image, or norton ghost.
i use these software to customize my laptop for different occations. whether i use my laptop to play games with my buddies at break hours durring schools, or do homework assignments in the library, or other general work. all i have to do is lay the image at boot and i have a completely different pc. it can be any os using any software customize in anyway, and took about five to ten minutes to lay down the image.
now back to the xrecovery question. can i do a "full backup" or a complete snap shot of the flash of my current android os and then restore it back at a later time in the same state and condition it was in just before i left it?
this is just incase i might have a remorse when i try the custom firmware.
i put a lot of time in making all the settings and adjustments just to the way i like it and i prefer not to have to do it all over again.
I have another question about the JIT software.
how many jit versions are out there?
i'm using the x10 flash tool version 0.2.6 to install the jit software on my phone. do you know what version of jit was distributed with this flash tool version?
thanks again, your time and help is very much appreciated.

i always keep several older phones for camera use, or other things so this is always a good idea.
will keep this overclocking widget in mind. i just recently learned that you cant clock the processor past 1Ghz without sucessfully cracking the bootloader first. so overclocking is not going anywhere for now.
i agree in holding off, really overclock widget should be utilizes when operating stock 1.6. anything after that 2.1 2.2 2.3 their optimized with jit or are optimized enough without it

if it is a modified sony ericsson 2.1 stock firmware with a different theme, then i'm not interested.
however, if it is a fully ported open source 2.1 android firmware, (not tamper with by sony ericsson) then this is good news. i really hope it is this!
to my knowledge is has not been tampered with by sony, cant recall if the dev had placed any se apks in theme. but it is a great rom. so is blue sparks. if going 2.1 anyway. these are roms and not just themes overlay. so should be as open source as the dev made it.
i have a question about xrecovery, can i do a "full backup" or a complete snap shot of the flash of my current android os and then restore it back at a later time in the same state and condition it was in just before i left it?
this is just incase i might have a remorse when i try the custom firmware.
i put a lot of time in making all the settings and adjustments just to the way i like it and i prefer not to have to do it all over again.
yes you can. when in xrecovery, go to back up and restore. and backup. this will save all settings, phone book, contacts text message, everything! if not happy with custom software you have installed. just go back to xrecovery>backup and restore> restore. back to 2.1 software before the custom rom
I have another question about the JIT software.
how many jit versions are out there?
i'm using the x10 flash tool version 0.2.6 to install the jit software on my phone. do you know what version of jit was distributed with this flash tool version?
the JiT version that is with the new flashtool is JiTv2 i believe.. dont quote me on that. i believe it is as i have looked at the files in the optimizer and compared them to the copy of JiTv2 i have saved on my comp. to my knowledge, there is only two versions. again, dont quote me on it. i havent seen an chatter going on about newer versions so this might be all we get. not sure though
thanks again, your time and help is very much appreciated.[/QUOTE]
always happy to try and help.

your generic test result has me sold to custom firmware. i want to try it out to see what i'm really missing.
Sorry took so long to kget back to you. hope you catch this.
Sysctl settings really dont make large change in how fast all functions of the phone operate. most increase in performance for settings is shutdown and power on time. as well as a little better scrolling of menus.
basically running the 2.2 software from z or trip, adding the data2sd.zip will get you well into having quad scores of 2+++. if aiming for higher closer to around 3000. which i am very near doing. ill show when i have the proof not till then
anyway, getting mid 2+++ scores and higher, do require using something like set cpu or Overclock widget, in order to get your phone to run at top speed while doing the test..
after that run a test then another and so on until you have achieved what is perfect W/O for you.

i did tried the setting parameters you suggested earlier before your latest post and i found the improvement is not that noticable, but the battery did die very quick. i found the original configuration work just fine at this point.
i'm still doing some reading on the custom firmware to make sure i make the proper approach without any hickups. i still have a lot of school work to finish and a part time job so the custom firmware is moving along quite slowly.

Is it just me? [Cellphone performance]

Since the day one I think i got a "broken" phone, why? it seems like any rom i install runs slower in my device than in any of you here, i can't oc too much, i always get from 250-450 less points in the benchmarking.
It really frustrates me, yesterday i almost broke (im a pacific man) my phone from a punch, I think I will just install a 2.1 or 2.2 for daily use and let it with just the minimal needed apps, it gets on my nervs too much.
So yeah, if you could share your experience so I can compare...
OPJQEHJQELKHjklwdgjkdsv.
Benchmarks =/= Real performance
Edit: I normally score 1000 less then others Yes 1000
Sometimes my phone stops responding for minutes. I get that angry that I flash a different ROM.and it becomes even worse every month I think but hey I just don't care for now. It is not a high end phone.
Today my phone stopped being able to do anything Facebook app is too heavy battery pull is the only way to get it back working but on the other hand I'm typing this now and my phone actually responds like a stock one you'll have to live with that. And benchmarking isn't the world, my CPU scores are getting lower every Mark like grift's ..

I can relate, i have a p500 optimus t which is a optimus one i guess. Owned it for like 3-4 yrs now just around 3 1/2 4 yrs into owning it i found out i could update it to GB 2.3.3. I did that and i really didnt understand the change other than the look. Plus i was told that my phone wasnt able to be updated from 2.2.2 by the tmobile techs "Well, yea it can bub" lmao but i see many flaws p500 has with speed, i try to understand the roms and now i see the differents, going on youtube and watching people overclock and playing highly rated fps games on the same phone i have...WTF how can i do it. I follow their instructions, but i take it that its not to the T. I still end up unable to overclock it right and not able to match their performance ON THE SAME DARN PHONE!!! So i ended giving up for a while cuz i wanted to throw the phone into the trash but now i can relax cuz im starting to understand it more. :laugh:
Its the cpu degrading i guess.... But now my gt540 has a half dead screen Its lucky yours is still in usable form
Nah, benchmarking was just a way of showing how my cellphone sucks .
Well, I think I will just stay with some 2.1 or 2.2 D:
Dont think that way! You score 400 less and i score 1000 less :good:

Only difference is that you own a SII lol!
I think the thing that is happening to you is because OC has degraded your processor... My phone have 1.5 years old and mantains the same speed and even gets better with newest and more optimized roms (ex. sdsl)+scripts and some tweaks. I don't use OC or swap... I only used a little OC for the first versions of ICS, then nothing. With swap on ICS I feel that my phone is slower than without. Yes, i have less app-kills but restoring apps from swap on sd is too slow (on my class 4 SD card) :/
Nonono i mean my old gt540 I used to use swap on my gt540 o.o class 4 8gb card
yeah i had a gt540 for one year and so far no lagg. i am using stock 2.1 rooted and i reckon stock is the best
rom out there. i havent flashed for a long time so i decided to flash ICS today and see how it goes.
If your phone starts feeling laggy or slow just flash a KDZ rom to it and it will be normal again.
Almost all problems are solved when u flash a KDZ rom.
