Infos about GPU and CPU ?

Hey guys,
is there are app than can display me the current cpu and gpu clock
or some benchmark exspecially for the gpu ?
Since days im trying to get Dungeon Defenders running with 24+ frames but no chance.. ROM's only change 1-2 fps etc.
Nothing helps so now i'll look if my gpu speed is correct
THX =)

would be cool, if there's a widget that displays the clockspeed, and gpu speed, temperature at real time.

That game used to lag like hell til I installed lastupers SO 4.6.8 kernel. Its smooth now but still lags when there's a lot of action but its better then all the other kernels I've tried before.

Performance with game

I put Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 in my Galaxy 3.
Loading goes fine, and the game seems to be ok.
When the match starts though it works very very slow.
Why??

It's a slow phone mate!

try using chain3d, works like a charm to my PES 2011 game

instal chainfire3d and if u want overclock your phone

and what values should I put in overclock??? how much?
It's not THAT slow...

form what i know it doesnt even have a graphics processor, all the graphics is done by the cpu. i play pes @1300mhz and it is stable and it doesnt heat up much, just gets warm to touch. but make sure you dont play for a long time like 2h with 1300mhz because it will melt xD

1000mhz seems stable with Fugumod 2.2BE.
The phone is not slow at all, but it has VERY slow graphics processor.

Fair enough. Sorry for the ignorance, but what is Fugumod 2.2BE
wow a 667mhz processor overclocked to 1300mhz. Thats incredible. Is that even possible?

mine is fixed at 1.4GHz

1.3ghz, won't go any higher, don't plan on getting a new phone for another year so I don't want the cpu to **** up right now.

Can someone tell me the differences between the different governors and I/O scheduler? I am running 1.4ghz with ondemand nowadays

CPU scaling governors controls the CPU clock speed according to CPU load, based on the governor you are using. In setCPU there is a site that explains the various governors.
I/o schedulers controls the resources given to processes. Don't know too much about that.
Correct me if I'm wrong

Mines at 1ghz at all times until i play a snes/genesis emu then i put it to 1.9ghz, it's the only 100mhz step that stops the crackling sounds, and it can go to 2ghz stable but no point in stressing it past 1.9ghz

Mine is running at original 1Ghz and I don't feel the need to overclock at all. When playing FPse and Snes9x the games run very well anyway. I don't get any crackling sound unless I play in an area with bad reception so it searches network all the time.

doesn't anyone else get crackling sound in SNESDroid, GENPlusDroid?
there the only two old snes/gen emu's that give 100% graphical/sound reproduction but need a lot of cpu/gpu
All the other emu's give me crappy sound/glitches in secret of evermore, and the water in chemical plant in sonic 2 is missing sooo..

Have you tried Snes9x? SNESdroid is based on Snes9x and is a bad rippoff. Snes9x is like the true Snes9x that is available for PC and has better sound/emulation than SNESdroid. Besides, you paid for SNESdroid right? The author of that app illegally took money for that emulator as its based on open-source. That's a reason why it was pulled of the market.
You can find Snes9x on explusalpha.com

DL Secret of evermore and go to the menu/enter name and listen to how bad that sounds, now play it with SNESDroid
Hear the difference?

The droid emulators are slower because they have more accurate emulation not because its a worse emulator, it even has things like shader support. Plus most of that devs emus are open source which is awesome! If you want them for free just compile them yourself.

Never played that game. I'm sure this can be applied between other games vice versa. In my experience though all games I play runs as well or better in Snes9x. Never stumbled upon a game so far that for me sounds bad or bugs in graphics.
Another thing with that emulator that I love is that you can turn off linear filtering for the graphics so the pixels are intact without blurring the heck out of them. Only that feature alone is worth a lot for me.
But personal taste is like the ass. It's divided =)

Yeah. I apologize.
I'm curious. Our phones go as high as 2Ghz? Sounds insane. Doesn't it kill the battery?
My Play at 1Ghz feels a lot faster than my HTC Z did when it was clocked to 1.2Ghz.
Quadrant score on my Z was 2500. On my Play it is around 1300 unclocked. Which leads me to believe the Quadrant scores are pretty much useless for comparison as my Z needed over 1Ghz for games to run smooth while they run perfectly smooth on my Play at 1Ghz.

I suppose it's different architectures of arm cpu's and different instruction sets that makes a game/program run faster on one but not the other.
And i wouldnt trust quadrant to save my life, i get 1600 to 1800 underclocked and 2500 to 2900 overclocked to 1.9GHz then 2500 below for 2GHz so i dont know.
Also battery life is quite bad at 1.9ghz but runs out significantly slower on 1.7ghz

Hi,
fast and stable at 1.6Ghz using performance governor on default use. 122Mhz powersave on idle, and original 1.0Ghz ondemand for calls

1.2ghz on demand here but I can go to 2ghz.

Sitting solid at 1.4 ghz smartass v2 governor 122 mhz idle

Water cooled would be soo awesome !

there is a theory by turgot, that increasing a faktor wont increase the outcome at a specific point anymore. therefore i would be really interested how your play handles games at that oc. not only a benchmark, something like a video where its possible to see occouring errors, if there are any
this is great work you did, and it may allows some modification to the play.yes im thinking about cooling..even if it wont be that portable anymore. thanks for your help

2.3GHz
I'm currently going where no developer would go before my customized kernel has 26 CPU frequinces all up and a max of 2.3GHz
But without the GPU overclock and a 8mb GPU memory vs Lupus and dooms 4mb

i cant go even more than 1.6ghz

Needed an extra cooler solution and an powerful battery, like Mugen 3600mAh, to maintain this level of OC for diary use. Would be amazing!

Wait, what? Lupus Kernel offers increased amount of VRAM?

IMHO this is perfectly fine if you don't care so much about the device, otherwise you would be crazy. OC'ng so high will eventually cause in-reversable damage. I know what your doing so no need for me to ask questions But even if its stable for you it wont be for others all depends on the chip and as we know each is different. Also even if people don't use 2.x ghz frequencies tend to jump to the highest for a mili second if even on boot, causing problems with the device actually booting.
Well just my 2 cents on OC'ing...

What about 2 cents on this VRAM apparently being doubled?
At the end of the day its not GMEM which is essentially like a processors cache. Our chip has 256kb of it. But the allocated VMEM, would upping it to 8MB provide any sort of performance increase?

Can you post some benchmarks for the CPU? And also tell us more about the VRAM... Did it make any difference?

I believe that the Xplay has good chances of reach 2.0GHZ, running fine, provided has an good thermal solution. In my test, the games run fine for some minutes, before start overheat. Needed of somebody to build an custom cooler, then, make some tests. In my opinion, the safe clock, for sure, is not only 1.6GHZ. Only for default cooler.

I CBF screen shooting but CPU at 2.1 is around 20% faster then 1.6 and the GPU is around 25% faster with a 2600 3d score in antutu without adrenobooster

I know it's kind of not allowed to redistribute this but can u upload the kernel and send it ti me (PM) cus I will take some screens ans my play can handle 2GHz fine but bootloops when gaming after about 30-50 minutwa (depends on intensity of game!)

Gameloft games are only optimised for Adreno and Mali, not PowerVR.
GTA SA lags with almost all android devices

Man, but this game no lag in stock tw 4.3 and cm11 even i used only 2 core clocked in 1.200ghz.. maybe this bug only in i9500 tw 4.4.2 ?

Probably Samsung's aggressive thermal throttling which was introduced with 4.4.2.
BTW, how on earth did you get games to only run on 2 of the 4 low power A7 cores?

No, the A15s run at 1.6Ghz... which is what I am rather concerned about.
Because a normally functioning phone should utilise all cores and speeds should be fluctuating above 1.2Ghz in for graphically intensive games in your case.
The i9100 has a optimised Mali 400 GPU which should run GTA better than most Adreno or PowerVR of that gen.
It is also worth noting that the SGS2 is running at a awfully lot lower resolution at 800*480 compared to 1920*1080 which will require a lot more processing power than the S2 to run those games at similar settings.
Both GPU and CPU are important.
