Terrible quadrant?

I went and did a quadrant test and scored worse than the normal evo, and I'm rooted and running cyanogenmod 7. I got 956 average on 3 tests. PS, performance 1075 on Setcpu

and?
quadrant means nothing

Run smartass at 1190.
Also which kernel?

Does Setcpu have a smartass setting? And the stock cyanogenmod 7 kernel.
Evo 4G
Cyanogenmod 7

Use tiamat or savanged
Also why use setcpu with the performance settings in cm7?

The best way to improve your Quadrant score is to uninstall Quadrant and stop worrying about it....

Ok. But where's the smartass setting?

Performance settings > CPU settings > governors

I don't have that. Conservative, interactive, performance, userspace, powersave, and ondemand.

Yeah you need to run a different kernel like I said.

Alright, I downloaded tiamat. Whats a good setup for those settings then?

Smartass and 1190 I find is best balance for battery life and performance.

QUADRANT IS NOT A GOOD BENCHMARKING TOOL.
Check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DE0hDwfzFOk&feature=player_embedded#at=322
Quit using Quadrant it is easily duped. Your scores can be increased easily in quadrant. You might even be able to follow the video and get better scores, so that way it will make you feel better.

Why is everyone so offended by the fact that this guy just wants answers on how to improve his benchmark?
Who cares if you find no value in it, he does.
Answer his questions and move on or ignore the thread.

I'm first going to reiterate what everyone else has said... don't worry about Quadrant, or benchmarks or any of that.
with that out of the way, the absolute best I've ever achieved is when I first got my phone and was pushing for high Quadrant numbers, and I was on an AOSP Rom and installed CM Turbo Kernel, like... 6. something, and I turned the "Turbo" feature on. got like 1850 after a few attempts. that's the absolute best, and it wasn't stable. was running 1190, on Hardware 002, which my phone did NOT like. I get about 900 now and I'm happy because my phone is usable for a full day!

Running a different kernel isn't the issue. Having the min clockspeed set low and running a benchmark that doesn't tax the phone enough for it to ramp up the clockspeed is the issue. Set the min and Max to 998 or more then run the benchmark.

Not what I was referring to.
He asked why he didn't have the "smartass" governor available.

My galaxy has never been this fast! Tip to others :)

My galaxy is blazing fast and battery is ok, this is what I did:
Clean install of ICS F4K mod R4 linaro + devil 3.0.84 linarI.
Then made following settings in devil kernel configuration tool :
Governor: smartassV2
Scheduler: vr
RAM: 403mb
ZRAM: on
ZRAM size: 150mb
Swappiness: 70 (default)
Devil idle: automatic
Smooth UI: on
Governor profile: normal
Ultra KSM: on
All other settings are default, no overclocking not OCing.
Then on the developer settings I turned in the GPU rendering.
This installations and settings are making my phone super responsive and fast. I hope it can help our fellows here which might be annoyed with laggy phones.
Good luck in trying it out.
PS- remember to back up your EFS folder before trying this out!

Stupid advertising...

Its a pity you see it in that way... I just wanted to give a helpful tip, since I've got much help from this forum. Regarding the comments in ROM and kernel, those are just my opinion. There are other amazing ROMs and kernels as well in here.

Where did you get devil3 0.84 from? -_- last I checked there's no GPU rendering option in devil kernel configuration

Those are kind of test version released by DerTeufel. You can find it in his threads. But not on the main page.

Smartass is slower than ondemand anytime.
Zram is lagging system for a better multitasking.
SmoothUI only works on Lulzactive.
UltraKSM is using more CPU and making overheads.
Force GPU rendering setting is making force close on apps and never increases smoothness.
Why EFS backup is needed before trying some simple settings?
Please do more than ticking some settings and research them before making a thread for telling that it imporives the performance like magic.
Ok open nstools and set this;
Governor: Ondemand
Treshold: %50
Sampling Rate: 20000
Schuelder: vr

Isn't lulzactive better than ondeman? Its a little slower but more battery friendly. Because it scales up slowly as the CPU load reaches the particular percentage (you can set it up via nstools)
Edit: SmoothUI can be applied to ondemand, smartassv2, and lulzactive. I think lagfree too but not sure.

Hi, you can find the kernel from here:

These settings are working good enough for me.

What does the treshold and sampling rate actually do?
I'm using the default settings of Ondemand atm;
Treshold: %80
Sampling Rate: 35000

Threshold is a value in %. As soon as the CPU load is higher than the (up)threshold is, CPU scales up. The sampling rate shows how often the CPU scales(looks for the CPU load and decides to scale up/down or stay on the current frequency).

you're quite right here, but one correction.. SmoothUI works with every governor. It has been this way for a long time now. It's easy to test with the help of CPU spy

Actually, Sio gives the best benchmarks than any other i/o. Its regarded as the best i/o scheduler(Check i/o comparisons tests on xda). Deadline saves battery the most

thanx buddy.......so i take that sio is better than cfq right........and what about deep sleep mode????? what level should i keep it to ????
and ok i saw that comparisons.......thanx for info

You cant change the level of deep sleep mode, its a mode when cpu uses the least frequency which is automatically applied when your screen turns off with no activity in the background

Then can I undervolt it??to what level?

Or is overclocking recommended

The Best Combination For ICS :)

For a while i'd never dare touch ics because it was to laggy but i yesterday i thought i might try it with a few tweaks i tried
Rom: Sechko_JJ's HYBRID ROM v2
Cpu: 1.3Ghz SmartAssv2
Tweaks: Zram Adreno Libariesv3
Kernel: Lupusv11
i found this to be the best combination on ics i get 235mb+ of ram gaming is nice and it has great battery life and now its going to be my daily Driver i highly recommend using this combination if you want to try ICS

When you're using SmartAssv2, what I/O scheduler do you use? sio or ondemand?

This is the best I have come across as well.

I was thinking of posting the exact same, except I don't use zram but swap file. Do you see a difference with or without zram?

BFQ it is best. But with Aurora you can't change to that one only between noop and cfq, this last gives me worst battery saving. But with governor interactive or ondemand is almost equal.
But each phone is differente so and therefore there is no best solution that you guys try them and check.
