Infos about GPU and CPU ?

Hey guys,
is there are app than can display me the current cpu and gpu clock
or some benchmark exspecially for the gpu ?
Since days im trying to get Dungeon Defenders running with 24+ frames but no chance.. ROM's only change 1-2 fps etc.
Nothing helps so now i'll look if my gpu speed is correct
THX =)

would be cool, if there's a widget that displays the clockspeed, and gpu speed, temperature at real time.

That game used to lag like hell til I installed lastupers SO 4.6.8 kernel. Its smooth now but still lags when there's a lot of action but its better then all the other kernels I've tried before.

[Q] Serious Lag in Galaxy Note.

Has everybody encountered after doing some intensive stuff like doing AnTuTu benchmark, the phone abruptly slows down to a crawl where animations slow down like rotation being damn slow, swiping through screens also is slow, and games being damn slow. For instance, I ran AnTuTu benchmark and it won't go higher than 30FPS. where usually it's 40 - 60 FPS.
This is not the typical lag I encounter.
The only way to solve this is to restart the phone. Sometimes restarting the phone once is not enough.

This sounds fishy. Never happened to me before. Although will try again once I download Antutu.
Edit: Just checked... Ran Antutu. Got a score of 6474. Everything seems fine. After quitting Antutu, scrolled through the homescreens. Everything was smooth as before.
Edit2: Ran Antutu again & got a score of 6502. Tried playing ShadowGun immediately afterwards. It ran without any hiccups...
Currently on KL8.

Turn off the power saving mode and you should notice a big improvement in lag.
I get around 56fps running AnTuTu with system power saving off.With power saving on,I only get 27fps.A big difference.

Could this be an overheating issue? Your cpu might be throttling coz of high temps.

This is not only because of AnTuTu, this only happens when I'm running an intensive app, where suddenly after exiting it will slow down to a crawl.
The most annoying part is the rotation animation. It is devastating slow.

I'm not sure because the phone also isn't hot at that time.

I haven't seen this issue either with benchmark apps or with intensive games. Might be an issue specific to your device. What rom is it running?

I'm currently on ROMOW 5.1, previously using ROCKET ROM since V9.
I never had this issue on Stock ROM's.
Both custom ROM's I used had this issue.

What sort of "intensive app"? Is it still running in the background?
If you have an app that uses a lot of memory, and then immediately try to use another memory intensive app, you may the OS begins to run low on memory as the garbage collector may not have run yet.

Dave

After playing GTA 3, Modern Combat 3, Asphalt 6, I will have this issue.
Killing the tasks on task manager won't help, neither cleaning memory.

Same problem
I have exactly same problem, my phone starts to lag randomly example in browser.
First its super smooth and then suddenly it kind of turns off gpu acceleration and starts to lag.
Even cm9 alpha doesnt have this problem so it's wery strange issue. And its there on every phone my friend also noticed it.

this is an issue with mali driver on note.
the gpu clock have two clockspeed that is 160mhz and 267mhz.
during that time when u run the benchmark the gpu clock to 160 and only utilise half of the mali power.
this had been explained by tegrak, creator of tegrak app.
the only solution is reboot and rerun the test or flash fm 2.0 that is clock min to 200mhz or flash tegrak kernel (can find at tegrak 2nd core in android dev forum) and use tegrak overclock app to lock the gpu to 267mhz.

We don't have the same problem. The browser thing I think everyone has that problem. Mine is a rare issue where it affects the entire OS.

CM9 is awesome, but I can't live without the video player.

It is same problem i have exactly same impact, everything becomes lagyer. Same thing with every note.
The browser was only sample where you can notice it.

I can hereby confirm that Tegrak Kernel Build 31 is able to resolve the issue after setting the minimum GPU clock to 267mhz on Overclock Ultimate.
FM Kernel 2.0 doesn't solve the issue.

Is the phone hot after running this intensive app? The Note will guard itself against high temps.

One of my favorite things about the Note: No hotness!!! I had this issue all the time with the SGSII to the point that I couldn't hold it to me ear. My Note doesn't even get warm! So happy.

i am on a stock phone and seen enough force closures in the last week and more than enough in the last 48h. i was just showing my daughter the live wallpapers, so was just flipping through various ones, after flipping through them quickly and setting it, the phone froze, was not able to do anything for about half and hour as phone was booting and rebooting with me unable to even switch off the phone. luckily, at one point i just was able to change wall paper to the black wall paper available on the market and it sorted itself out. it has done this twice whle flipping through live wall papers quickly. the wll papers i was flipping through were flames, weather windmills, aquariium, 3d wall paper, most came with the phone with the exception of flames and black wallpaper.
the phone is fine now but OTG function is flaky, dont know if it is the connector, so have ordered a samsung otg from amazon now and will find out whether it is the phone or the cable.
the built in file manager has serious lag issues as it keeps 'processing' after changing every folder and have stopped using that now and use other free ad supported versions instead which have no problems. same with stock video player which keeps force closing often, so use mxplayer or dice player without issues.
an expensive phone like this should work stock apps fine and not require third party apps for video playing and file browsing etc. was on the verge of returning it when it froze but seems ok now.

Extweaks settings performance for games

I was just wondering what extweaks settings would be the best for playing high demand 3d games..
overclock processor to maybe 1.4ghz..
and how do u guys adjust your gpu settings..? i mean different steps..and step thresholds as well as the gpu step counts..
also what governer do u use ?
do share please
thanks

What about your games performance? You have @ low framerate?

gpu 133-200-267 MHz with 800/900/950 mV. OC to 1300, if more - hello big freezes. governor performance for games. ARCH_POWER turned on, hotplug - dual core always on.

Well that gives nearly the same gaming performance as SGS3
2-4FPS less, but who cares

Change your GPU voltage into 1100 mV
And use 1400 MHz instead of higher ones

lol that is quite extreme..but will give it a try..
Anyway my main concerns are some tiny stutters and lags in normal games
And some massive fps drops in demanding and open world games like gta3, gangstar rio city, backstab etc..

Gangstar Rio lagged as hell on my SGS2, Because of very bad optimization's.

Well I've never had to OVERCLOCK to get more performance from my phone. The GPU is more than enough to handle whats out there and don't see the need to turn up the juice. 9/10 if the game lags its due to the kernel or the rom. 1.4ghz on the cpu and 400mhz on the gpu + are unnecessary IMO.

Yup i know..for most apps and day to day life..it runs everything fine enough..
However i do see some lags and fps drops in demanding games..please i am not talking bout the temple run-angry birds type of games..
Thats why waned to know few settings being used by users to increase some fps and use my device to maximum potential..
Also any one has any idea bout a really stable rom-kernel combo that performs really good with 3d games..? I have heard the roms like CM9/RR etc give bad 3d performance(even though they are quite faster!!)
thanks

Low 3dmark score!

I just bought my new Nexus 4 and i tested it and it has really low score in 3dmark! what is the problem...?

Reboot, run it when it's cool.

I just did that. I bought it, turned it on, updated it to Android 4.3 rebooted it, and ran 3Dmark and this is the score! It was cool and no bacground apps were running. Is it slow because of android 4.3 maybe?

The problem isnt the benchmark, it has almost the same gaming performance as my Sony ericsson Live With walkman overclocked to 1.6Ghz!
I played ExtremeG 2 on N64 emulator and game is almost choppy as on my LWW :/ Also i played Danmaku death, and sometimes Fps is better than my old LWW but sometimes its worse >__>
P.S. It looks like it throttled so the score was that low... But still for 10 mins of testing some games that run good on my 1Ghz phone to be able to make the Nexus go to throttle mode and it was baerly warm to the touch...And people say you need around 30mins of heavy gaming to make it throttle... I expected much more from this device. It looks like its custom kernel time.

Wow, now it scored in ice storm extreme almost the same as in ordinary ice storm test while throttling... Didn't know it was going to affect the performance so much...

All these benchmark tests are shiat!
Samsung know how to fake scores, LG and HTC also, the nexus and motorola are clean:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/7384/state-of-cheating-in-android-benchmarks
Anyway, try to play FIFA 14 on your Sony Ericsson Live....[dead], I don't think you could run this game and if so it never be smooth and fast as its on Nexus4.

Pubg mobile on S7 edge exynos 935f

Hello everyone. I have started playing pubg mobile on my s7 edge exynos version and the performance is soo bad. I get like 20fps and the game lags so badly even with around 100ms ping. Someone told me to root my phone and use gltools to optimize the game by setting fake gpu as adreno 630 would fix the frame lag issue. I did so but still there's no significant changes. I know my device might be pretty old for a game like this but i feel bad when i see a less config phone performs better than this. This is my only priority right now to play pubg smoothly. Is there any way i can make the performance better?
Thing that i have tried so far: game tools, performance mode, changing up the resolutions, editing UserCustom.ini with loads of codes provided in various youtubers, turned on 4x MSAA but nothing could give the smooth 60fps gameplay.*
As i am noob about all the kernel thing and overclocking gpu or cpu, will anyone be kind enough to give me a proper solution for better gaming experience? Thanks.

Nah. It should play fine. I'm thinking you should look into connection latency as well. Even a high end gaming rig PC would stutter on PUBG at 20FPS if internet connrction latency is bad. Latency has nothing to do with internet speed. Even if your speed is high, but the connection between your phone and the server goes through a lot of hoops like VPNs, ISP rerouting, etc, latency will be wacky.
There's also the issue of battery age. The phone is about 2yrs old. The battery may have aged and is full of dendrites so it's not giving max power anymore. So even if you set it ti max performance, the battery may not be giving enough power to play it fully.

Would changing the battery help? And i am from Bangladesh, and whichever connection i use, it never goes below 100ms.

100ms latency for a shooting game is pretty bad IMO. Could spell life and death.
Changing the battery will help only if the battery is part of the problem. Right now I don't know for sure.

Use pubg gfx tool from play store

Man, i play pubg in high quality with no lag.
First, install tgp rom with tgp kernel in these advanced settings:
Big: interactive. 2184ghz max/728ghz min.
Little: interactive. 1586ghz max/422ghz min.
Fiops/fiops/bic.
Then install PUBG ANTI LAG and set: graphics balanced - style classic - resolution 1280x720 - fps 60 - shadows disabled - antialising disabled. And set the config.

Same for me, lags, bad fps, 30 or below. settings fake gpu to 630 might bump up graphics settings and cause more lag. so dont do that.

What fps do you get? and why game tunner?

60fps, game tunner is very good

Yeah I forgot to mention game tuner. It's the tool to properly adjust resolution, fps, and performance allocation on Samsung ROMs.

I had the same problem with my samsung g9350 but I finally fixed it.
Game tuner , Put HW Performance to +3, +4 would drain too much of your battery, this would make sure that your phone is getting enough GPU, frame rate limit to 60 fps, resolution is 75% while im using HD Resolution on game mode just for the Game tools, I haven't tried increasing the resolution yet, im fine with HD for battery purposes.
I have Govtuner set on battery mode, L Speed on Battery Mode, This is just to counter the heating issues caused by HW Performance.
GL tools so I can use MSA 16x, force 16bit rendering, Optimize GLSL Shaders and of course FPS counter.
Firefds Kit from Xposed just so I could disable Touchwiz DVFS. <== This right here is the cause of our problems.
When I play solo or duo, i get 60 fps, since you faked your GPU, you can use Extreme Settings in pubgmobile which limits the cap to 60.
And I just adjust accordingly, like when I play team, sometimes my fps wouldn't reach 60, I lower it to Ultra(40 fps max) or high(30 fps max).
on 80 battery, i get like 4, 20-30 mins games, the device doesn't heat up and is smooth. Hope it helps, I was just like you once, doing everything just to have fun playing Pubg mobile.

Hello. All I can say is that the gpu exynos is not good for the game I have the Qualcomm version and without any change or third application I easily get the 28 fps with the default settings.

Hello bro
I use a tgbkernel and i get awesome performance in samsung galaxy s7 edge exynos, i m playing pubg seance season 6 and i m happie for my phone ?dost use useless apps in phone thank You

Hi bro if you still using the device, how much FPS you get after the new update. Do you use GFXTool?

100ms latency is ok IMO. If you're a good gamer, you could get away with even 200-300ms latency.
