At what cpu speed, 1600-1664-1704?

Use Antutu or CF-Bench...Quadrant is a random number generator.

Mine is fully stock and antutu gives something around 6200, what about others?

@vessk0 wow!! at antutu test 7528 its exellent! I tried now, and don't go up 6900.. I think Its time to change rom =)

Are the 3D benchmarks limited to ±58fps (the refresh rate of the screen)? Is there any v-sync off setting that could unleash the power and give better results?

Yup, as far as i know it's limited to 60 fps. (Correct me if i'm wrong)

Hi vessk0, I have the same rom now, but the score is too low
what's your configuration? I tried with 1.7ghz, aggressive task killer in sistem tuner app, 2048mb cache on sd and noop setted in I/O scheduler section.. the score is around 6900-7000 points

For benchmark I use 1.7GHz @ Performance governer, but internal SD card in settings of Antutu. That's it.

Check your voltages, try to reduce it to 1325-1350 for 1.7 (default is 1450). That'll help it run cooler, and make it less likely to lock up.
But that said, you may just have an Exynos chip that is not happy at that speed, there is no guarantee that they can all do 1.7.

Quadrant
Linpack
Antutu
CF-Bench
SunSpider

And here's a fairly recent benchmark of the Droid Razr with some other phones...you can use this as rough basis of comparison.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5198/motorola-droid-razr-review-a-better-clad-bionic/8
TL;DR: The Note really kicks ass when you crank up the clocks!

@croak I have tested your same combination rom/kernel and for now seems the best! with performance gov and cpu set to 1.7ghz the score is very higher in all tests
our note is one of the most promising device, estimating that the development is just at the beginning point

What's going to be amazing is how fast the upcoming A15-based Exynos will be. Clock for clock, it's supposed to be 20% faster than A9 cores. And they will be shipping at 2Ghz!
I expect that the A15 Exynos dual-core will outperform a quad-core Tegra 3 and use a lot less power doing it. And it'll be cheaper to make.

One of the 3 can not be right. If it outperform a quadcore hardly will be needing less power. If it needs less power hardly will outperform quadcores and at end if both are true then no way to be cheaper!!!!

Has anyone been undervolting?

Using Faux123's kernel, I've undervolted significantly. I went from the stock voltages and reduced all the voltages around the table by 150mv.
I can do GL Benchmark @ 1.35GHz and 487MHz (GPU) without the phone thermal throttling, which gets me better results than anandtech's freezer tests (39.6fps), mine being 42 fps on GL Benchmark Egypt HD On-Screen.
So, anyone else UV'ing?

damn, 150mV is a lot!
I'll def UV my nexus, but probably the same values as my s2: -25 or 50mV
No reboots ?

Nope , no reboots. I'm daring to try -175, or -182.5 ish :S

how has this impacted your battery life?

When i was using faux i got to about -150mv as well. Phone never really got warm as well and battery seems to be abit better. I didn't have it on for more then 1 or 2 days. But i was 100% sable. I ran GLbench as well in a loop for about 2 hours with no lockups or reboots. Makes me think that the reason the voltage is so high is because there is a very limited number of the chips that needed more voltage so they just pumped more voltage into all the chips.

Damn! So lowering the voltages that much made it not throttle at all ???! . what was your temp after bench

wow. sounds good. would you be able to run quadrant test as well, and see what you get please?

4470 for me: http://imgur.com/a/FiLC1
Quadrant lasts for a really short time though, < 1 minute. There can't be thermal throttling. The phone gets just barely warm to touch.
Edit: 5518 with performance governor and everything else the same.

Completely forgot about this thread.
Battery life = superb. 3 hr screen time on average, and if lucky almost 4.
No throttling at 1.35GHz, but I haven't tested 1.51GHz. I also managed to get to -187.5 uv undervolt, which is superb. I run all my clockspeeds under 1 volt.
@ italia0101
Yup. OC'd the GPU, undervolted and underclocked the CPU to 1.35GHz. Temp I didn't check. I'll run one later

So -150mv ended up not being perfectly stable. I thought it was good but it crashed about once a day. Now I'm trying -125. Yesterday I managed to do 12 hrs with 4h screen on. (wifi on and airplane mode 24/7, since I have wifi and gvoice all day).

Has under volting helped at all with the heat issues? Really annoying how it gets so warm after browsing for like 15 min.
I assume this voids the warranty?

I was on faux and i could under volt to a maximum of 125 stable, but honestly, i haven't found any improvement on battery life and overheating.
I'm using Franco now, that doesn't have uv, and my battery life is much much better than on faux...

[Q] Slow quadrant score?

Hi everyone!
Last night I was sitting with a friend of mine and tried to tell him that the Nexus 4 was faster than his Galaxy S3. He wanted to test it out and we both downloaded Quadrant Standard and ran the test...
Let's just say that I had to eat my words. I had a fresh install of CM10.1's latest nightly installed. The strange thing was that I was expecting the CPU to max out at 1500~MHz but it still stated 1100~ whilst the S3 was around 1400Mhz.
I went into the Performance menu and set it to PERFORMANCE but still the score was lower. My friend's S3 also had a custom ROM so was thinking that maybe the extra 1GB of RAM in the N4 may give a higher score.
What happened?

so because the s3 scores higher in quadrant, youre thinking that its a faster phone?

Quadrant scores literally mean nothing. You can't compare scores from different hardware on different versions of android running different rooms.
The s3 is a great all around performer that scores above average in all categories. The Nexus 4 scores higher in some categories (mostly hardware and software) but scores lower in others (camera, speaker)

thermal throttling

The Nexus 4 has got some heavy thermal throttling problems, search for this term on these forums and you'll find plenty of info about it. Basically, the Nexus 4 is the only phone that is unable to keep running at the stated max clock frequenzy for more than ~5-10 minutes, because it would overheat. After a few minutes, it will throttle the performance. This is also the reason it sucks so hard on benchmarks, compared to other phones with exactly the same hardware.

No it isn't .. It doesn't use all the cores all the time for everything..
even if I fire up GTA 3 , straight away it isn't using all the cores, and in fact doesn't use cores 3 and 4 at any time in GTA3 , it isnt throttling here,
The only benchmark iv seen the Nexus 4 throttle on is glbenchmark when ALL the tests are ticked, which is like a 15-20 min test at full load
Dsmboost was correct in the previous post as well , hence why not all the cores are being used when in games.
Can pretty much bet anything that its not throttling in 1 run of quadrant ...

With the trinity kernel you can over clock up to 1.7, also there's a faux kernel that you can go up to 1.7 but its useless anyway, your tablet won't perform better because you over clock it.

Better in performance of course. Over clocking the tablet can deplete it's life span. Battery life will take a huge hit too.

For me overclocking is totally useless. You won´t recognise a difference between no oc and oc... only in benchmarks, but your battery is draining faster and it´s getting hot

overclocking to higher frequencies will make the battery drain faster and it will get it hot but I only overclocked 300 MHz to reach 1.6 ghz and it's perfect ,it operates normally and it never got hot . I also changed the GPU frequency to 533 by trickster mod .

this is partially right I think it will effect the battery when the kernel request those extra 300 MHZ but it will also save the battery since I made the minimum frequency to 100 MHZ .

There's a principle called the law of diminishing returns and it applies perfectly to this situation. The reason that kernel devs don't include higher frequency steps is that there is no real benefit. At higher frequencies, you introduce lag, random reboots, boot loops and general instability. Performance and frequency are not a linear corollary. Additionally, you exponentially shorten the life of the hardware by clocking too high. 1.6 is safe for most, 1.7 for some, and 1.8 for very few.

A bit over 7000 Quadrant score on 4.2.2 here too, OC to 1.6 and still able to UV about 100 across the board and no different in stability, maybe i'm lucky one who got variant 3 of Tegra 3 here.
What I got from OC my device? It's run much more smother than when i'm at 1.3 like in facebook app for example at 1.3 I'm not able to scroll through feed really smooth but at 1.6 it's really smooth.
Concern about negative hit to battery life? I'm notice a little hit here as i'm get about 7 hours screen-time at 1.3 and about 6.5 hours at 1.6 and to me that acceptable, maybe due to UV that make it not much different.
Heat? A little lower if not the same temperature as when it's running at 1.3 again due to under voltage I think.
But however this is just my personal experience.

If you can build from source, just add in the frequencies to the tegra3_dvfs.c and other related files. But due to several obvious reasons mentioned already in this thread, I would never do that ever.

You won't even notice -25, people usually undervolt -100 or more. I don't think it can damage your phone, it can only get unstable in which case you need to find stable voltages for your device (CPU).

These voltages are stable on my phone. Some users use even lower voltages on their "FAST" chip.
On stock ROM I did felt that phone is not as smooth as with default voltages but on Purity ROM which I use now I don't feel huge difference.
It does reduce heat if you undervolt enough.
About chips: Basically, when Qualcomm makes the APQ8064 chip that you see in our Nexus 4, there are 4 different "types" based on how it meets their quality standards. These are Slow, Nominal, Fast, and Faster. The main difference IIRC between these types is how stable each can handle undervolting. CPUs that are "Fast" for example come pre-configured at a lower nominal voltage than a "Nominal" type CPU, and more so than a "Slow" type. (Does this account for how some people's phones generate less heat? Maybe, maybe not. IIRC, there's like only a -100mV difference between Faster and Slow out of the box, however Faster CPUs should be able to handle lower voltages than Slow-type.)

About chips: Basically, when Qualcomm makes the APQ8064 chip that you see in our Nexus 4, there are 4 different "types" based on how it meets their quality standards. These are Slow, Nominal, Fast, and Faster. The main difference IIRC between these types is how stable each can handle undervolting. CPUs that are "Fast" for example come pre-configured at a lower nominal voltage than a "Nominal" type CPU, and more so than a "Slow" type. (Does this account for how some people's phones generate less heat? Maybe, maybe not. IIRC, there's like only a -100mV difference between Faster and Slow out of the box, however Faster CPUs should be able to handle lower voltages than Slow-type.)

Do you recommned to me to undervolt?
I have a "Slow" cpu.
What voltages should I set (if you recommend to undervolt)?
Iwant to reduce heat and save battery.
Im using franco kernel and PA 3.99.

If you want to reduce heat and save battery than undervolt your cpu.
Set -50 or -75 and use your phone (test it) for stability.
You can always set the stock voltages if you see that your phone becomes slower and you don't like it.

Thanks!
Last question, how can i test stablity?

Just use your phone, play games, run some benchmarks, run StabilityTest app, take some pictures and or videos as well to see if there are any artifacts etc

What app are people using to undervolt?
I'm currently using SetCPU, but somehow i don't trust it to not mess with anything else, like the governor, ect; (any chance of that happening if i don't change anything?).

Trickster looks interesting.
As a question, how come you yourself use it over a more "common" app like SetCPU?
