Is it weird to have 1774 at Quadrant?

Hello all,
I'm quite shocked when testing quadrant and I got 1774 score. Usually I only got around 1400-1500.
Then I tried that time, I had around 1400 for the first time, and I repeat the test directly and get 1774 score.
I repeat the method the next day and get also a huge difference between the first try and the second try.
anyone can explain this??
I'm running CM6 RC2
1113MHz monks kernel

pretty nice score, possibly some other proceses running in the background, i got a 1200+ score then killed a bunch of stuff running and then got a 1500 score

I usually hit 1700-ish.

try again directly after you got 1500 score. I got 1700 for the second try

I did the benchmark before applying the voodoo lagfix on my SGS, i was the third on the list just after moto droid x, after the lagfix and reboot, i'm now 1469 and on top of all the device, the original SGS score is way below...
the point is, how this thing work ? is this reliable ? i mean what's the point of the app finally ?

I honestly think that the score doesn't matter. Isn't the most important thing most aim for is speed and stability? If your phone feels fast then you shouldn't care for the score.

1774marks? no it's not strange.
Here is a screenshot i have made about month ago on original-chinese-odexed Miui [email protected] without any hacks, it was fast as lighting (Or diarrhea)
Miui12.31 not so fast

[Q] darkys rom not so fast :(

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.

Slow Darky's 9

Is it normal to get only 905 points from quadrant with darky's9 and speedmod? Before updating from darky's 8 i did get 1245points.

Quadrant is rubbish, people can make themselves get quadrant scores of 3000 + so dont rely on that.. if your phone responds quick and it feels quick in your hand, thats all that matters.

Exactly, I had a 2000+ score with my old JPO+lagfix, now, i'm at ~1000 with my custom ROM, but the phone is so smoother, and it run without lagfix!

I had the same issue after the first 2 times booting up, but it solved itself after 2 more boots and now i am getting 1600 again.

Quadrant scores are totally irrelevant. Insanity ROM has over 2000 but I have found Darky's is the smoothest out of them all IMO

if your phone is fast and responsive why care about quadrant?

it's nice and smooth, no problem i were just worried about if i did something wrong.

Quadrant is rubbish, is not relevant, if you make 2 or 3 tests consecutive there will be different results, so... if you're like how is your phone moving that means you obtain the best results.

I still don't understand why people stick to their quadrant scores. Of course it is fun, but if you can do stuff with your phone and no annoyance like lag or whatsoever. Who cares whether quadrant score is 100 or 200?>

Speedy Nook

Thanks to all the hard work from all the developers on XDA:
I love my nook with a Quadrant score of 2539!!!
CM7 v85, OC at 1.2GHz, cleaned /system/apps
Everything works: NetFlix, various markets, Flash, Youtube in HD, etc
I have a picture of the Quadrant scores, but I'm not allowed to post links yet

I would post this in the General forum for future reference.

Thanks, I'll move it to the General Forum

I feel the new OC Kernel is pretty great and I love deep sleep. But I will always remember the 4/24 Kernel at 1300mhz, which got me scores of 2700 regularly ;p
That said, I get about 2300-2500 (depending on the sd card) now, and I don't mind taking the small hit for the much better battery life.

With the 424 kernel, I was getting like 2500-2700 normally at 1.3gHz
Now with the 523 at 1.2gHz:
I had one really low one at 1400 something, I was shocked.
My highest was 2513.
Averaging around 2300-2400 excluding that first test.

I actually had the same scare (1400) lol. But that was the first test back with beta 3.1 and with just the 925mhz.

All tests were done with the exact same settings, so I was like what the hell is this.

I'm running Phiremod 6.2 with the 424 OC Kernel, and even though I'm too chicken to run at 1300, this thing just screams at 1200.

Not to derail, but how did you get Netflix working? Are you using the leaked APK, or just the website? When I try to stream from the website it gets an error.

Use the apk, test it and if it chipmunks, edit your build.prop.
A search will tell you all you need to know.

low score in benchmark

Ok so as you can probably tell by title, I have a problem.
I was on stock for a year and then I installed custom rom few weeks ago (aosp ics final by maclaw i believe) and ran quadrant benchmark and surprised. cpu benchmarking took me full 10 minutes and i was getting awful preformance in all other parts and at the end result was 505 (note that when i was on stock i was getting 700-750) and then i thought it's because of rom. then i moved to sgsII v11.2, which should be lite rom based on stock, and same thing, around 550. is this my phone's fault (i mean factory problem), or i am missing some steps during installation, i want you guys to tell me...
P.S. Each rom i install runs smooth as silk, multitasking without problems

Which benchmark app you are using???
In Quadrant on SGS2 JB 4.2.2 by SpaceCaker, I get around 1350, dont know abt ur prob, try Quadrant and tell

I used quadrant, but most stupid thing is that i was getting higher scores on stock than now on custom roms

That is what the Ace should score, it's a low-end Armv6 Device, actually running at 600MHz but factory overclocked, with a crap GPU.
Besides..
