Is there any app out there that lets you benchmark your phone to see the speed of different rom/settings ?

What speeds are you looking for?

maybe something that measures the overall performance and the efficiency of the rom/settings. i.e like how fast it process an app or maybe the efficiency of RAM usage with that kernel
Did you search the market for benchmark?
Neocore, Pi. Just search the market for 'benchmark' and you'll get the results. Next time try searching before posting.

ok, so i just installed this program which is really great! i was playing around with the settings and i set the cpu to 260 mhz...now by setting this, is it automaticly overclocked? or do i have to do something else? and how do i check if it worked or not...

Look on the today screen. Where it says xxx MHz, the xxx is the processor speed.
right, and it said 260 as soon as i set it...but is that what it really is? because ive seen other methods of overclocking, and non are as simple as this one, so i wanted to confirm
yes that I'd the true speed of the device. if you want to make sure you can can get sktools which will also tell you the exact speed if the device. but the battery status on the today screen is right.
great little program. i just started using direct push again and because of the cpu throttling i feel like i'm not using any more battery.
wow, well i guess this program is really a combo...get good status of my phone and overclocks at the same time without any regedits or installign anything extra

It's really awesome. It' one of my favorite programs. Does anybody know how it measures the temperature?::: posted from my wizard :::

It's the battery temperature....
Check out the homepage at http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_BatteryStatus_XDA_Neo_WM5_iM_cs.htm
ever since ive overclocked, ive noticed a quicker battery drain...am i correct, or is it just me because now i have an accurate battery meter on my today screen? lol
has anyone been able to activate the bluetooth indicator? I read the website above, but it didn't say anything. It only said it was a feature.
and which is the highest safe speed?
well i believe the most stable high speed is 260 MhZ, but as i posted earlier, i dont know if it drains the battery more quicker or not...

I find that its pretty accurate. Like I have stated in other threads if your not using the extra power the just click on the speed and if you didnt change the intial settings it will power down to 195mhz.
I would also concur with the 260 being the most stable.
260 is the speed I have all my Wizards running with no issues (that could be attributed to OC'ing) On the homepage of BaterryStatus I noticed that the screen captures indicate that the device used is also running 260...

How does it measure/know the battery temperature? ::: Posted frm my Wizard :::
Hell if I know how he does it, I was wondering the same!
i wish i knew as well, especially since the latest release has the temp in F and not C
I'm running the beta version included in Faria's ROM and you can click on the temp on the Today Screen and it toggles between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
btw, the thread here is at BatteryStatus-Plugin, DeviceLock and Overclock for XDA Neo

This is just a theory of mine. I think that the transistors of the battery that touch the ones on the phone are connected to some type of fail safe that if it gets too hot it will shut down automatically. Just a theory.

You have to be using one of the latest versions of BatteryStatus to get the bluetooth. I'm still using Ver. 0.03.201 with Molski's 3.2 Rom which doesn't have it yet.
can anyone explain about the conservative governor and stagefright( both functions part of the kernel developed by he who must not be named ).. whats their exact use and advantage? cause i heard they boost quadrant scores above 3500..

I assume the person who told you that was also trying to sell you his phone.
Stagefright is just the Android video framework, built right in. The Governor controls the way your CPU speeds up and slows down, and the Conservative settings is designed to improve battery life at the expense of performance.
Neither one will improve your quadrant score, in fact Conservative would likely lower it.
3500 quadrant? If you really want something that silly the only way to get a score like that that I know of is to open your galaxy up, install a Tegra 2 and hook the whole thing up to a car battery....of drop it off a bridge and clock its fall speed.

Thanks for your reply!! but quadrant scores of 3500 is possible.. see attchment, i took it from damian forum.. awesome rite??

Not awesome, nonsense. As the notes indicate, the configuration isn't stable? What is the point?

Till oc about 1.2 is stable.. so might try that..
Does benchmarks and quadrant scores really that important?

Ultimately - I think not?
If the phone feels quick, and it runs your programes then i would not worry about benchmarking... But if it feels slow and sluggish, then i would try out one of the many benchmarking programes out there, and see if there truely is a problem...
I have tryed it a cauple of times and found that my note ran perfectly well, and that it was I whos was mistaken..

They are good tools to tweak your phone as long as you know what look for but of course one single benchmsrk cannot tell the whole story so I use a combination of benchmarks and applications that i am familiar with when evaluating rom/kernels or overclocking settings.

It surely does make no difference if you score high or low. What matters is that you should be satisfied with ur phones performance.

what i really noticed is that the memory and I/O scores are kernel specific and the more scores you have the more fast the operations on ur phone becomes..
i personaly have achieved highest scores of I/O using notecore /hydracore
This one is really not important. Haha.
Leave this app eversince I bought my notes.
As long as smooth, good battery life, what else u need?
U win nothing even if ur benchmark higher from others.

Hey fellow XDA users
I would like to know how you set up your device for a benchmark like AnTuTu, e.g. governor, min/max frequencies, disables (network disable, screen brightness etc.).
I get scores around 14300 in AnTuTu with gaming governor and nothing changed in any setting.
I'm on WerewolfJB Rom and Kernel
Thanks for your tips and experiences!

Ignore benchmarks. They mean less than nothing. The only thing worth worrying about is how the device appears to function to YOU.
Well I still want to know how I get scores over 15000 like @laufersteppenwolf

in general, exactly.
but when you are deving, benchmarks can give you feedback on how it has changed, better or worse. but in the end, it's my feeling, that decides if it was better or worse before

it mostly depends on what apps you have installed.
or more precisely, what kind of apps. widgets and other stuff (syncing, ...) use background power. to avoid that, you can temporarily set the max background processes to 4 during the benchmark. that way you have a more-less comparable value

hallo everyone!
i overclocked my phone with Tegrak ,benchmarked with Antutu and i get only 10741 points. on stock i get 15540.
but the phone looks faster than before.
why? whats the problem? :S
im the newest cm 11
thanks .

No, you don't.
You got a worse score because with the phone overclocked, the phone heated up during the benchmark and it had to limit the CPU or GPU resulting in worse performance and hence you got a worse score.
Don't overclock the device, there's a reason it wasn't overclocked to begin with.
And so the benchmark myth goes on and on... The way you FEEL about your device's performance should be your reference instead of counting on some apps which in turn is affected by many factors that could produce inaccurate results.
