Benchmarks - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, I am a bit puzzled right now. I ran antutu benchmark while on stock and my score was 36500! Then I flashed the latest cm11 nightly and my score is 23606. How is it my score is so low on cm11 and so high on stock? I haven't touched the performance settings. Is this just a cm thing? Should I try another rom?

Stop using benchmarks. They have no real life meaning.

Anyone get low quadrent scores?

I am running 4.010.13 with Richards kernel oc to 1500 and my quad score was 2300. My brothers Droid x3 scored 2500. Also I see scores all the time well into the 3500 for the a500.

i get 3000+ running minimalist only oc'ed to 1.2
When I of to 1.2 I only get a score of 1600!
How is is that rom by the way? Any bugs?

Runs amazing much better then stock although I am noticing a significant battery drop :-\
I might try out that rom. All of a sudden my tab feels like its slowing down and lagging a lot! I do not know what is causing it to slow down but I am going to try another rom that will hopefully fix it. :-[

[Q] Quadrant Scores

Any one know why the nexus 4 has lower quadrant scores than other phones using the same chipset, even with using custom roms and kernels? Like the optimus G or HTC Dna?
It's presumably because it's using a software version that Quadrant doesn't yet fully support. This has happened in the past with Android OS updates. I wouldn't put any stock in Quadrant; it's not a very good indicator of actual device performance.
Not to mention you're beta testing Android 4.2 for Google along with a 3.4 kernel.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on Nov. 13th. Still waiting.
It was the same with Antutu before they updated, now the nexus 4 gets great scores on that benchmark.
Maybe Quadrant will be updated soon.
Bench mark scores mean absolutely nothing.

Antutu shutting down

I dint no if this is happening for anyone else but when I try to run antutu it gets to 1% then closes but it says its running in my notification bar anyone have any ideas on how to fix this

Antutu
Here the same problem.
Yesterday it worked properly (on my lg p700).
Was there an update??
The current version works for me.

I have the same problem. You happen to be on ktoonz kernel?
Yea im on ktoonz kernel and I tested it on a couple different oc settings and I can only get it to frun on 1890 oc anything over that it closes after 1 percent

im acctutalaly lnot running his settings im running rawiletechs or something and its butter smooth but it doesnt have the greatest battery but when i want my battery to last i just change the i/o scheduler and the governors to row and koonservative and my battery will last about a day and a half

You won't be able to run Antutu with my settings. It heats up too fast. In my opinion Antutu sucks. It really does. I can get 14690 in quadrant with my settings. What good is it to have a benchmarking program if you have to underclock to run it? Pfft I'll pass on Antutu...annnnd...you're welcome lol!
What rom are you running?
Some of the developers include tweaks in their roms that clash with the kernel cause benchmarks to blow, but it doesn't affect if not actually improve real world performance.
For example, unknownforce had included some tweaks in ForceRom but once he removed them people's benchmarks back to normal. It's not the kernel, running Ktoonez's on my own modded stock gets me 14500 quadrants and 25k+ antutu.
Same goes for all the Blue Kuban users, Ruje included some tweaks implemented into his rom and those interfere with how the kernel runs the benchmarks - this "interference" isn't bad, it's just messes up the way the benchmarks run.
Plus - Antutu itself is very stressful on the CPU shooting up the temp to 70 degrees in about five seconds, so that can also be an issue.

Im actually running force rom and ktoonz kernel and I have to underclock to run it. Kinda lame but I also think there is something wrong with my phone I get screen that changes colors and flashes purple its kinda weird

4.3 reduced antutu score or its just me..

K guys.. I am not sure if its 4.3 or something else.. Can someone confirm.. I used to get 18000+ on my 4.2 n4 and over 24000 with faux overclocking kernels for 4.2
Now i am getting 14000 - 16000.. With 4.3..
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
it's 4.3 and new update of antutu....
you can use custom rom/kernel or some tweaks so you'll get over 23k
Just you...

Will try the cm 10.2 but its still nighty.. And regarding kernels I was always under the impression that faux and franco gives the best performance..

different kernel works and reacts differently on different devices and different roms. test it out to find YOUR perfect fit.

Try the S4 dalvik patch that's floating around here. Boosted my score to 20k+ on PA 3.99 with stock PA kernel at 1512/1512.
Using this combo as my daily driver since a week and no problems so far.

What kind of numbers did you get before the mod?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Around 16-17k if I remember correctly. Also don't forget that heat throttling is pretty aggressive on the N4. So make sure your device has cooled down before the next run.
Pro tip: put your N4 onto a cold ceran stove when benchmarking. They're made to conduct heat efficiently and will keep your device cool
Well I wouldn't give those numbers too much credit...
they represent more the settings that you enter, than device performance.
I for instance use the latest franco Kernel. With the settings I use every day (interactive governor, default clocks), I get arount 15-18k in antutu. But the device feels as snappy as hell in normal usage and gaming.
If I switch to performance governor, ramping the minimal and maximal cpu clock up to 1512MHZ while raising the cpu throttling from 65 to 90° I reach antutu scores in the range of 20-22k.
But I obviously would never ever use these settings every day.
That beeing said, these numbers do not really represent how the devices behaves in every day usage, which is much more important to me than any number, a benchmark puts out.

I am not trying to reach higher antatu numbers.. what I was looking for is to test out which kernel and what kernel settings gives me max power...

I have a couple of questions:
It's your phone still working like it should?
Do you really care about the scores you get to be able to enjoy your N4?
Do you think the scores of benchmark really say everything about your phone?
If you compare a S4 or M7 with a N4, and in one test (by chance) you get the same scores, do you think your N4 has the same power as a S4 or M7?
Stop worrying about benchmark scores, I used to be like that bench-marking all the time, at the end I just got tired of it!!!
Now I just enjoy my phone the way it is.
Good luck!!!
CM-10.2 and CM kernel got 20728

(updated antutu version 18484).

Benchmarks are useless, its how the device feels when using it what matters.

Low Bench scores?

First off I know benchmark scores are not that important, real life smoothness is. However when running Antutu Benchmark I consistantly get scores between 25k and 27k, while the chart puts the Note 3 at >35k.
LI am runnig a custom ROM, X Note 5.1 with Faux kernel. Is this kind of score to be expected? I have no real problem with performance but I'm a bit OCD so I would like to know what is causing this.

Maby it's the kernel you use, I am also on X Note 5.1 and get 35/36k.

I think I'll quickly flash the stock kernel and try again. Will post back if that makes a difference.

little improvement
Unconvincing improvement... What other things can cause low benchmark scores? I use the International SM-N9005 Snapdragon 800 version.
