Hi all.
I was running 2.1 Eclair just a few hours ago and was getting constant scores of 2.2K+ on Quadrant with the OCLF. I'm now running a rooted 2.2 Froyo with the same OCLF and scoring 1846. I can barely see a loss of performance... Does anyone know why this is?
Thanks in advance.
Because Quadrant is a SYNTHETIC BENCHMARK! It only tests a single specific workload
I was also under the impression that OCLF didn't work on Froyo unless you first ran the Z4 app and then the OCLF. I also agree though that Quadrant isn't that useful. The best test is whether you're happy with the speed of the phone. I'd be happy with it if it responds to my touch without a pause of a second or more.
Quadrant means nothing really, anyone can get 1k in there and outperform a 2.6k score.
is there a way to get higher quadrant scores (faster lagfix)? I'm scoring around 1250 right now... Any way to get 2000+ with cognition?
Thanks in advance!

Is your phone running fast? Do you have a lag? Quadrant scores are generally useless and inaccurate. That said if you want really high quadrant scores flash either perception or assonance, and tweak the ulf settings and overclock to the highest settings. Your phone will likely freeze up constantly but your quadrant scores will be amazing

I had Phoenix rom, decided to go to darkys because it looked better to me. I flashed Darkys, and it looked good and everything, but i entered Quadrant Standard and im getting score of lees than 720, when with phoenix i got 1000 or more, the graphic says that i have less score than a Galaxy S, what went wrong, is this ok, should i not bother myself with this or what?

Make sure you flash a good kernel.. SpeedMod K12M or Firebird2..
And check quadrant scores.. Quadrant scores don't mean anything.. DG officially hates it!
I have not tried darkeys but, I would reboot try again. No 2.2.1 rom should be that low.
Quadrants do not really mean anything though

While quadrant is not a completely accurate test it can be a useful test to see how the phone performs. A score of 720 probably indicates that something did not take. It's been a while since I have been on Darky's rom but with Cezar's rom and no lagfix I get 1100 quadrant scores which is pretty normal for a 2.2.1 rom without lagfix. Enabling lagfix could bump that to 1300 to 1500 range.
I have gotten 1700 to 1900 scores with overclocking and lagfix before but here's the problem with basing everything off your test score. On 2.2.1 with no lagfix I can't tell a difference in how the phone operates compared to overclocked kernels with lagfix. I can play the same games and watch the same videos and really can't tell a difference. Darky's is a 2.2.1 rom so you should be seeing pretty much the same performance.
Are you noticing any lag? Run the test again to see if the score bumps up?
this will sound stupid, he but i found the problem, with set cpu, i dont know why, but the processor was clocked at 400 mhz, FML!

Hehe nice
As far as Quadrant is concerned, yes in normal cases the quadrant score is pretty meaningless but Im surprised people say that even in this thread. Its meaningless to wonder about getting 1500 instead of 1600, but with scores of 700 clearly something is wrong, and thats exactly what Quadrant *is* useful for, diagnosing performance issues!
Good to see you found the problem already

Quadrant doesn't tell the whole story, but I'm running darkys 7.8 and I've got a Quadrant score of 1480+. I was a Cognition junkie until I flashed darkys - I couldn't be more pleased.

All the 2.2.1-based ROMs are pretty much equally fast.. mostly cause theyre all very close to being stock, the only performance-change is from using a recompiled kernel.
Voodoo seems to be a bit faster than speedmod. 1620 here on DocROM with advanced voodoo, no overclock.
Cureently i'm using Darkky's ROM 8.0 with Advanced Voodoo kernel v666.2. The present score is 1500 with lag fix. How to improve the scores further ??
why do you even want to get high score??? you can install another kernel to overlock processor

Best method is to lie .
Quadrant scores are irrelevant and bear no relation to the speed of the phone since Eclair .
Reason lagfixed Eclair posted high scores . Far faster less laggy Froyo posts lower scores = Quadrant no test of Froyo .

Hi guys!
can you post your SGS configuration and tell us how do you score with Quadrant Benchmark?
mine is that:
SGS i9000m
kernel speedmod 13c - rom ZeroGingerMIUI with no OC Lagfix ---> 1800
kernel speedmod 13c - rom ZeroGingerMIUI with 1.2ghz OC Lagfix---> 2100
kernel super optimized - rom ZeroGingerMIUI with 1.2ghz OC Lagfix--->2350
kernel hacked Supercurio for GingerBread - rom Ultibread v1.4 Lagfix(no system) --->2000
yes, i'm a bench_maniac!
Stock I9000 XXJVK --> ~awesome scoreon my user experience benchmark.
Awesome... no words to describe!
Quadrant doesn't reflect real life performance at all. I used to get 2200+ with a lagfix on 2.1 but it was no where close to the real life performance of what I experience now on 2.3.3 JVK with no lagfix where Quadrant score is just 1020 .
Nice

quadrant doesn't reflect the actual user performance/experience because in the past i've had high quadrant scores but poor user experience.
but as the versions change (i.e eclair>froyo>gingerbread) i get lower scores but better user performance.
Agree my user experience benchmark is also off the scale .
Quadrant crap as always .
Why dont you post all these benchmark quadrant posts in the same place if you want to compare size.

1200 on miui

Mine is scoring "awesome" too in user experience!
I personally think this thread should be removed I'm afraid.. For starters, there are a billion other quadrant threads, and nobody has F***king bothered, as mentioned to collate the values into a table. Also, nothing is worse than breeding a culture of people who believe that Quadrant accurately measures the mobile performance for all workloads.

I agree with Ausy that this kind of thread is not of much practical use. I run Quadrant weekly, but only to compare my phone to itself as a diagnostic. If the Q score changes radically, I try to find out why. I also use it to compare ROMs.
However, I don't see that the benchmark scores of two different phones will tell you anything of much value when you compare them.
