(((("The devices range seems to be huge. Not being interested into scores that much I had not tried Antutu on my S4 to date but did a few minutes ago:
On my rooted stock Vodafone Rom the Antutu score with Faux 3m stock settings and stock CPU clocks is 24.413.
Lowering the CPU clocks to between 324-1674 and changing to mpdecision off and intellidemand it is 24.221...
No problems with Antutu - both scores fine...
Edit: taking a closer look it seems to me as if Antutu overwrites the upper CPU clock limit somehow. The 1674 before running Antutu popped back to 1892 when checked after Antutu had finished. The lower limit remains untouched though - strange... At least the resulting scores are consistent - 2nd run with the second settings setup ended with equal 24.370.)))
How are you able to do the test???
As soon as I start Antutu, It bounces out from antutu and no mather if I lower the frequency ,still same result.
i think it is an antutu problem my galaxy s3 was getting lower scores while i was overclocking :/ maybe when the app gets updated it will be fixed

Yea it's a problem with AnTuTu, after you play with your phone's frequencies, it force closes. Sometimes with Quadrant too. It's weird because benchmarking apps are almost ment for testing your phone with overclocking, you (we) should contact the dev!
Thanks for you reply.
Yes,Antutu seem to be the culprit.
Funny though some are able to do the Benchmarking without a problem.
I do enjoy the smoothness and stability I find in FAUX Kernel for my Galaxy s4 9505,dont really need a benchmark to tell me if its good or not.
Anyway would be fun for comparison.

Has anyone noticed deteriorated display performance after DI08? I see this most-notably when switching applications, opening the notification drawer, and sliding between TW home screens. It didn't do this nearly as badly, at least according to my perception, before DI08. I just opened Quadrant, and the highest I've ever seen "Current freq" is 800MHz - I can't seem to get it to stick at 1GHz no matter how much I load the CPU. That being said, Quadrant and Linpack scores are high as ever...
I also noticed that it drops down to 400MHz very quickly. So, is it possible that the display sluggishness is linked to a more aggressive clock throttling to save battery? Or am I just seeing things?
Ok after bricking one phone, i got a new one and loaded voodoo and dirkks SV1200 kernal. also oc'd to 1200. everything has been perfect and had scores in the 18 or 1900s. this morning i was using my phone and noticed it was very laggy. i checked quadrant scores again and it scored in the 14's. as i ran the benchmark, i noticed it hangs on the I/O 3of4 for longer then usual. i have restarted the phone, no luck. even reflashed the kernal, no luck. I cant think of any new programs or changes to the phone. any ideas?

Well the 3rd I/O test does take the longest to complete. If you are having I/O issues this certainly would give you a fluctuating Quadrant score since so much is I/O affected especially on a voodoo'd SF. Have your other benchmarks taken a dip as well? Does the phone lag in regular use? If its just a Quadrant issue I would not overly panic. Cross check with other benches
My phone did that with voodoo too, I installed dirrks lv 1200, and when I upgraded it started acting up. I did remove the fix before I updated, did everything right, but it still lagged so I just glassed back to stock and did all the steps for remove lagfix. Still on stock kernel now but will install birdman optimized tonight.
Adrynalyne is the man BTW. Ok, as to the OP, have you reset the CPU in SetCPU after you restart your phone? If I don't, I get a score of 1400 ish too.
that would make sense as I believe it resets to 800 instead of 1200

Yes, it resets to 800. 1.2 ghz is nice, I would like to see 1.6. G2 OC'ed at 1450 I believe... Ugh, one day, one day.
No luck with OC kernels
I have tried a few, everytime I get issues. Seems like setcpu just does not play well with this phone. I get 1800 on stock voodoo .2. Don't see a need for the extra conservative 200mhz that an OC can provide. Good luck with the kernels though.
Anyways, as stated, make sure set CPU is set to 1.2 GHz and not 800 MHz which is where it defaults. I use the widgit and crank up the speed any time I'm using the phone, else, I leave it at 800 when charging / idle etc.
Also, go into System Panel (best app killer around) and do an END ALL - it will kill everything... THAN run quadrant. If your scores skyrocket, don't be alarmed. Quadrant likes to have a very clean system to run on, if you have a lot of cached or running applications, Quadrant seems to suffer, I'm assuming due to the delay between it requesting more RAM from Android and the time it takes for it to release it. Seems to make sense as to why it would slow down to me at least based on what I know about how Android handles RAM.
Just make sure to reboot your phone after to restore your normal app library of running apps.
With a 1.2 GHz overclock on jt's voodoo kernel most of us are/were getting about 1925 . I've not ran dirrk's LV kernel, the undervolting is very minimal and I'd rather error on the side of stability, YMMV.

hi, i've got a htc wildfire.. well obviously considering i'm posting in this section
anyway, i've installed wildpuzzle 0.8 with the overclocking kernal, what i'm wanting to find out is....
when running setcpu, the cpu will change it's frequency depending on usage.
but what about if setcpu isn't installed and you use the rom to overclock to say 748.. will the cpu stay at 748 permanently, or will it drop down and up natively depending on usage, like setcpu does??
thanks
i would say without set cpu or a specific speed framework, it would revert back to standard 528max 480min
which overclocking kernel have you got, be aware that if you have 130 kernel and overclock, wifi hotspot will not work, you can see phone but you won't be able to connect, you need to use 055 kernel from wildpuzzle 8.0.11 thread.
a small side note, i have just recently changed my overclocking from 691max to 652max, no discernable difference in speed, linpack for 691mhz was 2.9, for 652mhz i'm still getting 2.8 mflops, but huuuuge difference in battery life.
691 max struggling to get 2 days, 652 max after 24 hours i still have 82% battery left.
how do you see this mflops thing? and is it like a cpu score?

Download Linpack For Android from the market, and, Yes, in a way, it is like a CPU Score.
Does anyone know if the desire hd has any sort of processor throttling enabled on it? Am running Linpack benchmarks on my phone and am getting some very weird results.
My linpack benchmark changes between ~35Mflops and ~62Mflops seemingly at random, this is a fresh install of cyanogen 7.0 with LorDMod V4.0 kernel. Also have the google apps installed (are any of these known to cause high cpu-usage?) I have checked the background CPU usage using SystemPanel and there appears to be no other processes using the CPU.
Phone is running at 1.996ghz at 1300mv, have run mutiple stress tests over several hours and its rock solid in terms of stability, the max temperature i've seen is 37 degrees which also seems perfectly fine (I've heard from other threads that the processor temperature is normally around 5 degrees higher than the battery, so this doesn't seem to be an issue)
Have also tried increasing the voltage at 1.996ghz all the way up to 1475mv (incase of strange stability issues) however, as expected this has no impact on the linpack readings.
Basically i'm at a complete loss to explain this myself and therefore am wondering if any of you guys can come up with any other ideas?
Thanks.
What CPU govenor are you running the benchmarks with? You should use Performance, as it will lock your CPU at the maximum allowed frequency
I hope your not running your processor at that speed all day
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Wait wait wait...You are running 2GHz @1300mV?What the F*CK?Mine needs 1450mV to run @1.8GHz,maximum is a really unstable 1.9GHz with 1500mV,and this only for some seconds!
Anyway...You could try killing some apps.It's normal that tests aren't consistent however.
I figured this is the correct forum since it's related to the overclockable kernels?
Well anyway here's my experiences overclocking the U8800 (with geno's cm7 and oxygen I get similar results)
smartass governor 245MHz-1516Mhz
-----------------------------------------
About 2400 on Quadrant standard after a few runs. Stable (I don't remember any reboots atleast
ondemand governor 245Mhz-1516Mhz
------------------------------------------
About 3000 on Quadrant standard after a few runs sometimes, sometimes it won't get higher than 2800. Some freezes / reboots.
interactive governor
-----------------------
The strange thing is that the phone freezes if set the max. clock >1100Mhz with this governor. The phone runs fine for atleast ~5mins (haven't tested it for longer periods) even with the performance governor and max. clock 1516Mhz. (max. clock all the time). Anyway with interactive 245-1100 I get about 2400 in Quadrant if I remember correctly.
Anyone else been testing different OC settings? The strange thing with smartass is that you don't seem to get max. performance with it (3000 quadrant with ondemand vs. 2400 quadrant with smartass). I know there's a lot of stuff happening in the background which causes different results, but the difference is big. Could it be that smartass is is not giving max. performance because the temp is rising too fast or something? But on the other hand the score never is higher than 2400 even if the battery temp is 20C or something.
Also the interactive governor freezing if max. clock is above 1100Mhz is strange.
Oh yeah and the highest battery temp I've had is 41C, after which the phone froze (ondemand 245-1516).

Very odd !
Well I can say my highest temp I reached was ondemand 245-1516 is 39 degree celsius feels nice to hold it great heat warmer at winter !
Quadrant is poop, you should use AnTuTu.
I'm using Oxygen with franco.Kernel+ZRAM and overclocked to 1,8GHz, governor is SavagedZen. Here is what I got:
Quadrant: 3533
AnTuTu: 4327
Attached screenshot of Quadrant but forgot to take screenshot off AnTuTu But I fortunately submitted that score, so you can check it with the AnTuTu app if you don't believe.

110809 but franciscofranco said it isn't smart to use his kernel with that version. So I restored backup and I'm waiting for update to franco.Kernel now.

Yeah I guess I'll wait too. Feeling a bit lazy today
Looks like smartass has similar score drops on antutu compared to ondemand. So I'll just keep it ondemand and 245-1500 for the moment. When the new kernel is released I'll try 1800
I'm running the latest (110811) Oxygen with its own kernel. 3300'ish points from Antutu and 2400'ish from Quadrant. Seems pretty standard. Gonna also try 1800 when franco gives us update.
EDIT: And clocks were 1516 Mhz and ondeman governor. Smartass gives a lot smaller results for me too. Only about 1800 in quadrant with smartass

Have you had any freezes/reboots with ondemand 1516? I had quite a few and then changed back to smartass. The temp was around 37C so that shouldn't have been a problem. I haven't tried ondemand on the newest oxygen so it might work better now. It might have been the 2g/3g freeze with the earlier oxygen.

Yeah it freezes randomly. I did 3 runs on antutu and 2 runs of Quadrant succesfully and then left my phone on a table. After a little while the phone rebooted itself. So it rebooted when it at least should have been running 245Mhz. I didn't check my battery temperatures but it didn't feel even warm in hand when reboot happened.
Btw, I accidently thanked you for the message when I tried to quote.
