I was doing some benchmarks on my Galaxy Note and found that I could only achieve a maximum of about 6300 on Antutu, this is even when overclocking to 1600Mhz.
I have tried nearly all of the roms/kernels available and they never get higher than 6300.
Anyone know what I could try to get something higher, especially considering some results on Antutu are higher than 8000.
Thanks

Please refer to this benchmark thread to continue the discussion, we don't need two threads on the subject.

Admittedly, I'm a bit sick of seeing threads flooded with requests for benchmarks scores and I was thinking perhaps someone should consider setting up a table in the wiki with a complete consolidated list of benchmark scores for various firmwares.
Those of us who aren't benchmarkers then don't have to read as many requests for benchmarks, and those who do use them can have easier access to them. What do you guys think?
Anyone know why my galaxy s only gets about 13 in linpack?

Beacuse Linpack tests a specific workload, which it doesn't seem the SGS gets a high score for. However, did you purchase an SGS to "solve a dense N by N system of linear equations Ax = b"?(1) If so, yes, you probably want a faster phone. If not, Linpack doesn't prove that your average applications run slower then the nexus, only for the workloads tested.
Forget about benchmarks, they are only useful for basic testing...
Doesn't the Nexus S run on the exact same processor? I'm seeing scores of 30+ with that.
Thats basically my main confusion.
And yes, I do need to calculate a dense N by N system of linear equations Ax = b... for me to poop on! (If you aren't American you probably wont get that.. no offense intended.)
oh please! tell me that this thread is only a joke!
it's something ridiculous to ask this after month that SGS is out!
linpack is optimized for qualcomm processors!
anyway the NEXUS S give the same results of the sgs.
Look the video on 2:30

if you look the results on Linpack site ( http://www.greenecomputing.com/apps/linpack/linpack-by-device/ ) give attention to the notes: all the results for NEXUS S are not from nexus s devices!
Thanks. I just saw some ruduculous results and thought some thing was terribly wrong with my phone / rom / kernel combo. Much thanks.

it only tests 1 part of your processor that is slower then qualcomm's counterpart
The purpose of this post is to inform people of all the major benchmarks, pros/cons or each and what each of them do.
Quadrant Standard/Advanced - This benchmark is made for phones using the Snapdragon proccessor such as the g2/droids/evo etc. Please do not rely on this benchmark for the Epic as the Epic has a Hummingbird.
SmartBench - This benchmark was made to show fair scores for the actual speed of the phone. The developer of this app works very hard to work out "cheats" and bugs. This benchmark seperates the speed in games from the speed in doing other, non-game, tasks.
Linpack - This benchmark, like Quadrant, is mainly for Snapdragon. It shows floating point speed that does not really determine real life performance. Phones like the Evo and G2 get scores way higher than the Epic even though the proccessor on the Epic is faster.
0xBench - This benchmark is a combonation of different benchmarks. The purpose of this benchmark is to find out how fast your phone is for many different things.
Total Benchmark - This benchmark is a FULL benchmark. It not only measures speed but it measures many other things such as accelerometer, display, multitouch, etc.
An3dBench - This benchmark does a wide variety of tests to determine 3d speed
SQLight - This benchmark measures the time it takes to complete a series of non-gaming/non-media tasks.
SetCpu - If you didn't know, SetCpu has 3 different benchmarks included in it. These benchmarks show proccessor speed improvements from your overclock/kernal or rom change.
Nenamark - A GPU benchmark
Neocore - Another GPU benchmark. Made by Qualcomm to showcase their GPU. Since our GPU isnt Qualcomm, you cant fully trust it, but it seems pretty legit.
Did I miss any? Please send me a PM telling me. I know there are alot more but I think I got all of the major ones.
It would be great if this could be stickied.
Reserved for later use
A few others I've got on my phone:
Benchmark Pi: I don't recommend, since all it really does is test one function of the CPU, hardly a comprehensive benchmark.
GLBenchmark: Pretty decent benchmark, all things considered. Lots of options.
NenaMark1: Primarily a GPU benchmark, provides FPS (frames per second) score.
Neocore: Same as the above, mostly tests GPU performance. Created by Qualcomm to showcase their Adreno GPU, so take the FPS scores with a grain of salt.
Another I've heard of, BaseMark. AFAIK its currently only available to software developers. Looking to get my hands on it... looks to be pretty full-featured.
I still recommend SmartBench2010 over anything else right now, mostly because it seems to be accurate and the developer has shown himself to be very dedicated.
Also note AnTuTu. It's comprehensive, and gives a very good breakdown of what goes into its scores.
Added Nenamark and Neocore

GLbenchmarks
Its one of the best. I personally only really care about benchmarks that Anandtech uses since they give the most detailed and comprehensive reviews and testing of new phones and devices. I would check out there site to make sure you got what they use. I know for a fact that GLbenchmarks is one of them. Its a graphical benchmark that tests the GPU. There are also a benchmark to test browser performance, java and i think one other one that they use.
You can get all these on the market?
No, some of these you have to get outside of the market. GLbenchmarks for example is downloaded from their website.
What's the lowest quadrant score the note can have?
Can you score lower?
Oh ma god how the hell did you do that!
OP there really is no point in Posting Quad Scores and really less for lowest. I understand there are the threads wtih Highest, which most want to see and compare the highest...but having a thread for lowest will be bring undue attention, then user will want to know what ROM so on so forth.
Thank you sir.
A few months, kernel guru Andreilux discovered the Exynos variant of the Galaxy S4 was detecting the presence of certain benchmarks and raising thermal limits in order to gain an edge on those benchmarks. Ars Technica found the same behavior in the Note 3. It turns out Samsung isn't the only one playing this game, virtually all OEM's do.
In typical Anandtech like thesis fashion, they have broken down the state of android benchmark cheating in this very well written article (at least to me it was).

Benchmarks have been irrelevant since gingerbread... But I think what Samsung and HTC do should be the real way to test a phones performance.. there are so many things that affect a phone's performance so testing it's max potential should be the point of a benchmark.. I don't see anything wrong with what they are doing.

IMO except Exynos version of galaxy s4 none of them is cheating. What is cheating anyway? As samsung does on 9500, users only can use 533mhz in benchmarks. That is cheating. But what about devices just switching governors and thermal limits? Like NOTE 3 or some other phones, you can definately get the SAME level of scores if you throw those phones into a freezer and switch their governors to performance. This is not cheating.
LoL. BTW, I've been reading through the comments and find that none of the replies stating NVIDIA Shield's cheating behavior are replied or commented. NVIDIA Shield COULD BE the WORST of all. It does some trick to dramatically increase the 3D performance, which is not frequency/governor related. As tested, the fan-equipted device can only reach 75% of 3D scores in Antutu X than in original Antutu, and its gpu's frequency is always 672mhz. Apparantly the "better" results come not from governor switching nor from raising thermal limits, but from other tricks to fake the scores. Also NVIDIA Shield does no better in many games than adreno 320 does. Why benchmarks much higher? LoL
