First off I apologize if there is a thread like this lying around somewhere.
Now I made this thread because I'm curious about what frequencies people usually have their phone running on.
Mine's

damn 100/400.. lol i use 100/1460 on smartass
running 100, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200
sio, and conservative or on demand.
on the ronnin5 samurai kernel
-25 uv across the board on all frequencies
When at work i can run podcasts on blue tooth for 5 hours, surf web on 4g (usually checking the forums) for 30 min during my 2 20 min breaks. This is my usual 8 to 9 hours from pulling it from the charger to getting home. Rarely do i have to swap batteries before i leave work (i have 3 batteries) but can usually make it home and toss it on the computer usb if i don't want to swap out my battery.

I CALL BS. No Way in Hell not even on Any platform will it be fine it will lag and be unresponsive at those low frequencies.
Make a video and put it on Youtube i want to see this if i UV as well it also decreases performance but gains battery life.
Not that I've tried it... but we all know the Epic is more than twice as fast as some devices that run Android. In that case, how would running it at 40% speed make it unusable?

Umm no thats wrong.
HTC EVO Shift 4G can be over-clocked to 1.9GHz from a stock 800 MHz: 110% OC
HTC Rezound can be overclocked to 1.99GHz from a stock 1.5GHz: 49-50% OC
Moto Droid X can be overclocked to 2GHz from a stock 1GHz: 100% OC
Theres plenty the Samsung Epic only has technically a 30% overclock and virtually a 50% overclock
But theres plenty of other phones with more over-clockability
I run 100/200/400/800/1000/1200 all stock. Its what samsung intended the hummingbird for (our processors were designed to go 1.2ghz iirc)

Well because our phones are 1.2GHz Stock but they lowered to 1GHz because that was the margin in 2010 for high end devices but they Under Clocked to save some battery. So technically we only came up with a 30% OC (1500MHz).

That will not show us how it performs I.E Lag. That will scroll smoothly and will stutter. running 400Mhz on max is still to low for no lag at all.
I could believe 100/600 or 200/800

And it won't show if it lags which it seriously doesn't at allllll but if I've been using only 100, 200, and 400 mhz for the past 6 or 7 hours or longer then u know its not lagging cuz why would I put up with a day using my phone lagging everywhere just to prove something like this to you..

Lol waitt I'm not saying its perfect or as good as running on 1000
But to me its very very very acceptable
Games is the only place it lags to a point where I can't take it
But I browse the internet (dolphin hd) and I use this app to get on here and I listen to music and txt and its all good now its not 100% perfect or very very very smooth but its really acceptable like I use it like this all the time so it should b acceptable

overclock that monster CPU? For which reason if it's just Blazing fast and no lagg at all ? Just to consume more battery?

Firstly, it's mainly just out of curiosity, I just want to see how far me device can go. Also, take my SGS2 for example, stock 1.2ghz, at the end of the day when I put it in to charge at about 9pm, I am left with about 20%+ battery. In my opinion that is useless battery life, as it is not enough to get through the next day, so it is just being wasted. So to overclock to 1.4 or 1.5ghz on my s2 to increase speed and battery life isn't an issue at all, why shouldn't I gain the extra speed? Same will hopefully apply to the SGS3
I can easily get to 1.6ghz at 1375mV and it's rock stable, but I do notice a battery drain when that high. It's all about personal balance between performance, heat generated by OC'ing and battery, for me 1.5ghz is the sweet spot for all three. Also I do heavily under-volt both cpu & gpu. My GPU isn't overclocked as their isn't a game that taxes it at stock, but it's nice knowing I can OC the GPU perfectly stably & safely to 400mhz from 267mhz and get a sizable performance boost, if I ever need it in the future.

I've noticed heat plays a large factor in this phone. Try this for an experiment. Take your phone and use it normally for about 5 minutes (Texting, Phone Call, Whatever) and then run Quadrant see what you get. Then take your phone and set it by your A/C vent for a few minutes and let it chill. Run Quadrant again and I'll bet your score is significantly better. I was having problems with my T-Mobile S3 not reaching 5000+ in Quadrant. I use the phone heavily but could only manage to get like 3500 - 4000. I let my phone sit above the A/C for 5 minutes and ran the test again to get 5100!

CPU - 13274 WOW! Now imagine if they put 2GB of ram in the International Version now that would be THE ultimate phone.
yea ive definitely noticed that heat is a factor in the quadrant scores. Ive been turning my phone off for about 30mins to a hour, either once a day or every other day, to let it cool down. The AC cooling idea is cool but im a little nervous putting the phone through two different extremes like that too often

I don't think you have to switch off the phone to cool it down. Just letting it sit idle seems to do the trick. I too confirm three effect of heat on quadrant score. It was on the 4100 range when hot, but after some idle time it hit 5100. Never switched the phone off in between.
Yea I keep my s3 in a cooler iced down properly, I'm getting 9000 quadrant score consistently after it thaws a bit.

yeah the only reason the U.S. version score above the htc one x is because of the ram. the cpu is like half the speed.
Well that was the idea of the extra G of ram... I still don't see the need for quad cores in phones just yet.

Yes. I have noticed this as well. Last weekend I purchased a HTC One, the reception was very poor compared to the Note 2, also seemed to have a bit of lag. I took it back immediately.
Then, I outright bought the Galaxy S4 and am debating taking it back because of the lag. I wonder if it has something to do with 1080 vs 720 screen resolution processing?

My best guess the is the s4 software was a rush job. They didn't expect to have to use the snapdragon 600 processor and so they didn't have time to fully optomize it the best they could. The soc is more than powerful enough. However, i think with in the the next month or so an update will completely clear that up. The same thing happened to the s3.

That is true, with an update it will help regulate the system a little better. I do too remember that with the SIII i didnt have it then but i knew a few people who did have it. The lag isnt BAD but i think to much runs in the background and sucks the ram up I feel as if i need a task killer for some of the background crap. Plus with the awesome dev selection coming here and once tweaks start cracking out im sure it will be all gone
What I did was install trickstermod, change the governor from on demand to interactive, up the read ahead from 256 to 1024, change scheduler to deadline, and turn off zram.. and this thing is running like butter. And I'm getting amazing battery life

I see two settings for the CPU Governor... You just changed the one under the General section correct. Or did you also change the Governor setting under the Specific sections as well?
EDIT: NVM the one under Specific section is for the GPU... misread it the first time I looked at the settings.
This seems odd to me. I had an S3 tweaked to optimal performance, and the S4 completely stock still blazes in comparison.
I don't have a single sliver of lag, I go from app to app in a heartbeat, and my roommate has a Note 2 as well and the S4 is still smoother.
Very weird, this is one beast of a phone haha. There is literally nothing better at the moment since it came out so early in the year!

What do you consider to be "lag"? The S4 does lag. That's all there is to it. Not as much as my EVO LTE does but it still does. Especially compared to the HTC One. But I'd rather have a little lag as opposed to the negatives with HTC, Sense, and the One.

I'm sure you know all about my phone.
My phone doesn't stutter in the slightest, it does not ever freeze up even for a second, everything opens and close immediately, multi tasking works flawlessly, there is literally nothing on it that doesn't work flawlessly. It has a processor that's already excessively powerful for just a phone.
As other people have said, some people may be having lag solely due to software, and the consensus is that the latest firmware updates took care of the minor issues people were having. I've had an android phone from every generation starting with the G1 and I can say that my phone, the one in my hand, does not lag at all, while all others had plenty of lag decreasing exponentially through generations.
I am running AOSP though, and not the stock TW though and have been since it came out, so I can't give a respectable opinion on the current state of the stock rom.

Weird. I noticed lag on the display model at Sprint, on my brothers S4 right after he purchased his, and on mine right after purchasing my S4. My brother also claims his device doesn't lag the slightest bit but it clearly did while I was testing his out. Maybe some of us are super-human and can detect a higher FPS in the 'ol noggin. Lol.
