[ThinkTank] JIT Optimization w/ Hummingbird Chipset

The possibilty of Android 2.2 speed improvements made us Vibrant owners salivate in anticipation for the JIT compiler but didnt see a significant increase in performance like it did with the nexus one. One thing that could eliminate lag in addition to lag fixes is optimization of JIT for our CPU hardware. We would like a proactive effort for developer to investigate for the above avg user. (Non-Developers) JIT Optimization = Higher Linpack MFLOPS

I think we're getting it in gingerbread =p

Im tired of hearing about linpack and quadrent scores already,they mean nothing.This is the fastest phone on the market right now period,if you dont like it trade it for a g2 or what have you like the rest of the idiots on craigslist.I personally have used every android phone available on tmo including the nexus1,g2,and mt4g.I xan tell you imho this phone is way faster and more responsive,and obviously the display and graphics are 2nd to none.complain about the lack of flash or ffc,but please dont complain about speed and performance,and as far as lag,try flashing a bionix rom after a clean stock odin,I've been using it since it came out and can tell you bionix final v2,and my current rom obsedion v5 run smooth as hell w/ no lagfix or oc kernal.So do yourself a favor,ignore linpack scores.

yes, basing everything off benchmarks is dumb. however, you can't ignore the fact that optimizing JIT for the hummingbird will net real world performance improvements.

thank you.....and plus i kno about the myth of high linpacks = better performance. i said "JIT optimization = High linpacks". High Linpack is a side affect of the performance increase. The nexus One performance has jumped exponentially from 2.1 to 2.2 because of the JIT optimization of the Snapdragon in theory, it should do the same for the vibrant as well. Everybody's phone reacts to sofware differently. think im lying, ask the ppl who had vibrants that couldnt OC like the rest like myself or ppl who cant have Voodoo. Trust me lil boy i aint nowhere a noob. Please take ur trollism to some1 else who dont kno wtf theyre talkin about. Actually G2 is the fastest phone on the Market FYI despite being clocked at @806MHz w/o root. If i really wanted to get another phone, i wouldnt be posting stuff like this or being an active poster in a Vibrant forum right? Right????? Checkmate....

This has been discussed before, certain Qualcomm chips are better optimizer for arithmetic calculations than the Hummingbird it. It means nothing in real world usage, where the Galaxy S variants still dominate (with a "lag" fix, of course)

Still, despite obvious advantages of Qualcom's CPU, the Hummingbird still can benefit from software optimizations of JIT to efficiently interface the hardware. Performance may not jump like it did w/ the N1, but it would help. Just like a car w/ 600 HP. A car w/ that amount of power is just useless unless it efficiently gets ALL that power to the tires right? same concept applies.

We are not getting it in gingerbread. The snapdragon have faster FPU performance due to a 128 bit SIMD FPU datapath compared to Cortex-A8's 64 bit implementation. Both FPUs process the same SIMD-style instructions, the snapdragon just happens to be able to do twice as much.

Look at who made the N1 tho.... HTC is the King at making Android phones. Comparing a N1 to the Vibrant is like comparing a Honda to Ford (Fix Or Repair Daily ) lol I still love my Vibrant tho its a Ford lol

Couldn't disagree more. I've also used just about every Tmobile compatible android smartphone. I currently have a Vibrant and I wish I would have kept my N1. And I almost pulled the trigger on trading in this POS for a G2 but the financial loss was just too great. I've yet to try any Bionix based MOD that was worth a damn. Not a one. Admittedly I've quit trying but I can't imagine much has changed.
The only thing keeping me from throwing this phone in the ocean some days is Cyanogen's team is getting close. I'm running the beta on a Euro SGS I have. Hate it as much as the Vibrant but I'm hopeful CM can save this phone from a sledgehammer.
You may be tired of hearing it but from my seat, as long as Samsung controls anything on these phones you will continue to hear it. Loudly.

Please, stop embarrassing yourself. The Nexus One is and was a great phone, but the Vibrant is better in almost every way. Better hardware, bigger screen, better screen, faster, and more units sold.

Wonderful analogy. I however do not love my Vibrant. I love the hardware and screen but because Samsung pulls the strings, usually I want to drop kick the thing because of it's limitations, instability and overall suck of the Samsung ROM. And yes, pretty much all the mods to it on here. Though Axura is about the closest thing my phone actually likes.

What makes you even think the Galaxy S line is even going to see Gingerbread? This is Samsung we are talking about...

Htc fell off and google knows it,thats why the new nexus is made by samsung,htc may have pioneered android but there sound always sucked and right now samsung kinda controls the display game,nobody else can produce super amoled and there abou to release super amoled 2,admitidly samsung has a bad rep for not supporting current models(i.e. The whole behold 2 debacle.) And words can't describe how much I hate motorola,htc is still good but I wouldnt call them the android kings,I feel samsung has alot of potential to become the flagship brand for google.

Oh Ye of little faith.......... Get real I have had almost every phone on the market (I can afford to buy what I want when I want) and after so many this has come closet to what I've been looking for especially since the 2.2 roms are out. My Biggest complaint about people knocking the phone is they always blame the phone for their poor flashing skills. This phone rocks and it is flexible enough to allow gingerbread whenever it arrives. Try that with a DroidX or HD7......(you fill in the name)....BTW I have a FFC and talk over 3g on it using tango without lag. I just need to make it so I can video a call to a computer and I am golden.
Bottomline..........this is a great phone........that is why there are so many devs playing with it.

You, my friend, are not very smart. This thread needs to be closed or moved to general. Just as you would make an idiot of yourself trying to argue relativistic quantum mechanics with physicists, you are doing now.

This thread got interesting. As has already been said the Snapdragon benefits from JIT more because of its 128bit SIMD. While I am sure there is probably some room left to optimize JIT for the Hummingbird I wouldn't expect anything near the gain the N1 saw. I guess it is good or bad depending on how you look at it but the latest 2.2 ROMs floating around is as good as it gets regarding 2.2 and JIT. Don't expect much if any gain there.
But lets face it in the real world the phones perform about the same which leaves me to believe the benchmarks are that much more meaningless because they usually don't test things you actually use the phone for. Some of them would have you belive the N1 is twice as fast as the SGS and anyone with a grasp on reality just knows that isn't true. This also makes me curious when I read about people saying their phones are slow. It makes me wonder what they have done to them to slow them down because even on the stock ROM my phone was pretty snappy. And on Onyx 4.2 my phone is blazing fast with no lag fix or OC! Seriously this ROM is crazy smooth and fast and everything works.
Don't expect much from CM that you can't already get in the 2.2 ROMs floating around here. CM will still be RFS and they are using the same lag fix as everyone else here and really there isn't much of an advantage to their ROM as long as that is the case. Sure they will have features that you won't see in other ROMs here but overall I expect the CM ROMs will perform about the same as the SGS source based ROMs.
As I have already said I think this phone is fast but if there is any real speed gain to be had it will be accomplished by replacing RFS with something more efficient.

From what I understand cm for the vibrant still has a lot of proprietary samsung stuff in it, because otherwise it just wouldn't work.

Sound

can someone tell me if we can raised up the volume on optimus 2x cause it has a very low accoustic plz?

In CM7 rom there is a program called DSPManager that works great for that purpose for me. Otherwise there are apps in the market, for example "Volume+" and "Louder volume hack". I have not tried them though.

Same for me. Specially sound through external speaker while playing media is absolutely poor. I have a xperia x10 mini (1/3rd the physical size of O2X) and its external speaker sounds at least twice better if not more. Its a shame on LG for not looking into this aspect.
BTW Vol+ is for gingerbread only and LouderVolumeHack I have not tried.
Anybody with experience on this may help.
Using BB 614 with Blazing Dragon 1.9B ROM.

Doubt it will work on volumehack. They stated it on description. Guess have to wait for the gingerbread update or devs to work on it if they wish to.

[i9000] Poor / Bad / Awful Sound Quality on CM9

Was very happy to see the latest "Stable" CM9 released a few days ago. Been using it, and it looks like a winner!
Then I listened to some music. Oi! What the hell, did I just bust my headphones?
The sound quality is awful to say the least. It's always been like this for earlier ICS builds.
Can anyone shed some light as to why CM9/ICS audio quality is really bad? Did a search and all I can find was a thread saying that the RC1 candidate had this problem due to an audio routing issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
am looking to flash to cm9's stable release as well and seeing your post has made me think otherwise... so far are there any other bugs or issues you've encountered?
By the way, i've only flashed ROMS a few times, i'm currently running cm7.2.. is there any particular method to follow if i were to flash cm9? or do i just install the zip file through cwm recovery?
thanks mate! cheers!

The only major issue is the sound quality. I've tried CM7.2 and the sound is superb, with CM9 the drums turn to tin can drumming! LOL
What's worse if you enable any DSP effect (which is fab in CM7.2) it just makes it much worse.
Other than that, the build is stable fast and very nice! It looks like an entirely new phone altogether. Now if we can get this issue fixed on the sound, it would be a proper release!
I've tested using Apollo Player, PowerAMP and Winamp. All of them sound really bad.
Hope this helps!

An update. Apparently, the cardboard drumming is only apparent for AAC HEv2 converted files. It goes away listening to anything 128kbps or more. BUT! Sound is still nowhere near as good as on CM7.2. It's like night and day.

This may be an obvious question, but have you installed Voodoo Sound?

decided to flash cm9 already last night and everything went really well. flashed it in less than 10 minutes.
anyway, so far sound quality isn't really that bad. I'd say average. it's not great, but not bad. haven't tried any other formats rather than mp3s and wavs but they seem to sound okay.
have you tried reflashing?

Try devil3 ics kernel. Voodoo Sound should fix the probelm
Sent from my GT-i9000, cm10 alpha, devil3 1.1.3

Thanks for that, tried it out and also decided to flash to TAJB v7.1
It's a JB ROM based on CM10 and the devil kernel. Sound is better.
Sent from my GT-P6200 using Tapatalk 2

Thank you all for your replies. Yes, I have installed Voodoo sound. Well done on supercurio for creating that. Unfortunately, all it did was amplify the rotten sound signal. Just hearing louder cardboard drumming on it.
Have posted this issue on the CM forums and haven't received any reply LOL

Testing audio quality on cutom ROMs (CM and AOKP)
Hi there (audiophile here, so haters stay away)! Been searching the forums and Google for a discussion on this, finally found it..
Been looking for a custom ROM for my SGS (I use a SGSII as my actual phone, and the SGS as a separate media player, since I can completely strip the SGS BARE ), something to basically turn it from a phone into a media player (like the Samsung Galaxy Player) lol.. Because I heard great things about supercurio's voodoo sound and the wolfson DAC I had to give it a go
As a side note, voodoo sound gives me great amplifications without distortion and the sound is good. I don't think it's leaps and bounds better in QUALITY compared to the Yamaha in the SII, but the amplification definitely is (and I need the amp because I use beyerdynamic 32 Ohm cans which are pretty hard to drive )
Anyhow, I digress... Tried different ROMS, all with voodoo sound installed (i.e. all rooted). Tried stock Gingerbread, along with CM7.2 (Stable), CM9 (Nightly), AOKP M5 and M6.
Perhaps it is the "placebo effect", but I find the dynamic range and sound-stage is completely destroyed by the custom ROMs (or is it the kernels?).. The only ROM that I can listen to comfortably is the stock ROM (with stock rooted kernel by Chainfire). Does anyone agree with my observations? Would love to see if it's just me or I might be onto something?
I haven't tried CM9 stable on my SGS yet so maybe that's improved. But I am really torn. The stock rom is f***-ing (are we allowed to swear on these forums?!) slow! The phone is nearly unusable compared to AOKP/CM.
So what's the solution guys?! Are we tied to the stock rom to achieve the best audio quality? Or is there a custom rom out there that is lightening fast but preserves audio reproduction quality?!
Please discuss your findings here!
Cheers!

Thanks for your post there, I thought I was the only one! It looks like we won't get much more assistance as the devs are probably focusing on higher priorities right now.

I too have this problem. I used to have a nokia 500 , with which i had downloaded many original songs from nokia music , but since i used mobile data to download , the songs are 32kbps bitrate.
In cm9 , the bass cracks like anything. in cm10 , the bass is smooth and nice sounding. I tried copying cm10 audio libs to cm9 , but no changes occur.
The only way to solve this problem is to use songs with a bitrate of 160kbps +. Even then , cm10 has better sound quality. CM9 is a lot more stable , wish someone could port cm10 audio libs to cm9

Damn, cheers for that feedback. Nice to hear that at least the sound on CM10 is good! CM9 music... urgh... A pity since music is a major driver for me.

[SOUNDMOD][05/05]FidelityXAudio - Ultimate high fidelity audio

I'm building a new ROM for my new Xperia Z right now mainly for even better audio quality. However, it'll take a while as I plan to try rebuilding audio driver library file for lower latency. Right now I'm on vacation staying at my parents' house so I decided to build this sound mod for Samsung WM8994 devices instead since I have good chance to reunite with all of them right now.
FidelityXAudio is based from PureXAudio for Xperia Z/ZL made by ZeroInfinity. I asked him for permission to derive his works with mine for all-in-one sound mod I plan to release for various devices that support Alsa driver. For this first release, it'll support Nexus S, Galaxy S, Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Tab 10.1 and all variants. Installing this mod will give you the following features below.
Features:
Rooted & Busyboxed - This will replace current root and Busybox with latest SuperSu and Busybox. Since most root access for Xperia Z I tested are so unreliable getting bootloop after mounting system rw, I'll force better ones in this package to avoid that problem.
exFAT support - If you're using Android JellyBean ROM but still not have exFAT support yet, this may help you getting one. It works for Xperia Z/ZL but haven't tested for others yet.
init.d support - This isn't cheap recovery flash init.d script. It'll execute init.d script with root access from hardware boot script level so it works far better than conventional ones for locked bootloader running stock kernel.
Xperia Fidelity script - It's ultimate sound quality mod script I've been developing for years. Not only get you better sound reproduction but also make your system smoother as well.
PureXAudio engine - As FidelityXAudio is based on PureXAudio mod, most PureXAudio features are availble except audio effects and specific sound card stuff. I may consider adding them back later though.
Low latency tweaks - My tweaks inside PureXAudio for lower latency Alsa configuration. Not sure how much of it works though as real measured hardware latency won't change without modifying driver.
Mastering 64-bit quantization - The most accurate 64-bit floating point quantization in Android. I usually end it with 32-bit integer mode but this sounds better for crazy upsampling level.
DSD128 audio processing at 5.6MHz - This will give you high resolution audio simulation. The real sampling rate will still be 44.1KHz but with 128x upsampling for audio processing before downmixing is really something.
Fidelity nVIDIA audio configuration - Optimized for more direct bitstream with lower latency. Only for Tegra devices though.
Removed DSPManager for more solid audio performance - This mod breaks DSPManager in CM ROM so no point in keeping it and you probably won't need it anyway after hearing sound with this mod.
Download: PureXAudio v1
You can't flash this on other devices as it can break audio with incompatible sound card configuration. I tested on my Nexus S, Galaxy S, Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Tab 10.1 and they're all working fine. Guess not many people still use them nowadays but they're great ones for sound quality wise. I'll update again for APQ8064 based devices in next version after releasing new Xperia Z ROM.

Wait I'm trying it will report back soon:thumbup:

Don't know if its a placebo but I seem to be able to crank up the volume much higher now before it starts to sound distorted, on lower volumes I cant hear any difference
anyway thanks for the mod will start using it daily and probably damage my ears :laugh:

Will this mod work alongside voodoo sound, or is it an alternative?

It works alongside with Voodoo Sound. Actually, I added my own Voodoo Sound tweaks as well. Some may not like it but that's what I prefer.

What headphones/earphones/speakers do you usually use with your devices?
This information is useful for me. Thanks! :good:

I used to try all in market years back but now I don't really care much even R10/Orpheus failed to make my desire go wild now.
My current favorite earphone is Martin Logann Mikros 70. Not very bang for bucks but easy to wear with mic and bass sounds like speakers with dynamic driver in that long housing.
My current speakers is Rockport Ankaa. I like it more than its newer Avior models.

hello I flash this but I don't think is working for me..i don't find any different ...
I install busybox again with busybox.apk is ok ??

If you already use other soundmods, maybe it's possible that this won't work. Otherwise, I don't see any reason why not as I already included root/busybox/init.d stuff.

I don't use other soundmod.. I don't know maybe I don't understand the sound ... for busybox I install 1.21.0 ..

It works on JellyShot 4.2.1 v1.3? I flash it with CWM? I have Voodoo sound... It works fine too?

i'm sure that you will make this face when I tell you that i'm using CyanogenMod 7.2...
... so the question: it's only for 4.2.2 roms or it will work with every android os?

Should there be an app to control this?

[q] the best of galaxy ace 2013

Hello guys, we all had a great year but what our devices had we hardly know......
Hence guys Here is a thread to share the best of galaxy ace .......I have tried many custom roms
the best experience for stability was CM7
and for more speed and agility CM9
now I want you guys to speak up about your experiences. And share the best about the things that you did revolutionized the phone SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE....:cyclops:

Well at the start the Samsung Galaxy Ace i had android 2.2.1 (Froyo) and it was really getting slow so i updated it to 2.3.6 (Gingerbread)
After that i found a fantastic ROM which was Cyanogenmod 10.1 RC4 by bieltv.3
Overclocked it and everything was running butter smooth, LIKE REALLY BUTTER SMOOTH
:laugh:

I think it was the ultimatum v3 with swapall kernel i have 80 apps and is really faster and smooth (sorry for my English )

For me, it would be the AOSP Ginberbread rom for Cooper by spacecakers. It works fine for my requirements.

best of ace for me would be @Rhievaldo's cm9 and @Mardon's cm10.x roms. I did try ultimatum rom and really liked it. But I prefer all the functionality and good looks of cm9 roms and above. CM9 Touchwiz Revolutionized 5.0-V4.0 by @Sky_Walker is beautiful too.

is this the a factor rom?Could you post the link for that rom...I would love to try it......

Have a look at The Ultimatum ROM
Hello. I have recently upgraded from my Galaxy Ace after it got smashed. It had CWM and a really, really awesome ROM on it.
I always enjoy trying out new ROM's and Mods. However their is one that had the perfect combination of performance and battery. It's highly customization makes it a great contender. It's based of CM7. You can choose may features to install using the Aroma installer. For example a great feature was to choose from several themes and launchers in the Aroma Installer. You get great Bass and clarity as the OP explains. It's super fast, smooth and my benchmark was increased... ALOT. I'd give this ROM a go because it looks, feels and was amazing!

Well it is stable until i edited the build.prop and messed up everything so i installed it again, and CM10.1 is stable if you dont overclock it... Since it is a Release Candidate [RC]. About battery life...i cant tell, my battery is swollen so it drains easily...but with CM. It drains slow

Uhm.. Maybe KitKat. I didn't tried it, but great work from the devs

Yeah KitKat ROM does look pretty good for the ACE. CM11
And remember KitKat is backwards compatible and requires very little RAM (512MB). Our ace only have 280MB free but with a swap file i'd think it would be very responsive. Samsung probably will not release a new update for our ACE since it's been 2+ years from release. As always try mods, buildrpop tweaks and find a stable overclock for yourself. On my old ACE overclock became unstable at 864MHZ+

Hey man if your worried about audio quality flaash awesomebeats, then pure audio then install viper4androidfx. Man it will blow you away. Anyway back on the roms use a stock rooted one and customise to your liking... Man whats your headphones? Don't tell me yo own them dam beats

By the way
By the wayy Beats Audio Headphones are terrible. They repoduce inaccurate audio, and in theory only god for rap. No Beats Audio does not repoduce how the artist intended, instead how DR Dre "Really" intended. The bass feel so muddy and unclean. These way to much bass, bass was not ment to be made from the headphone but rather from it's DAC, or amplifier. I mean 2xaa batteries in it's little amp? That's pethetic. And it's still inaccurate. I could rant on about them all day, i know this is of topic but just wanted to say. However i dont mind the Beats Audio Libs with ClearAudio+, PureBeats and Awesomebeats. All though the Beats Audio Libs make it sound like a Beats Pair, it feels more accurate thanks to ClearAudio and Awesomebeats. Therotically stay away from Beats Audio Headphones, it's a marketing " Hype", and many produces and DJ's rather use Sennheiser, or some other better reputable brand. They use them because of their accuracy to the frequancies. Compare a Sennhiser frequancy chart to a Beats By Dre chart and you will see Beats Audio's Bass and Treble are just to over the top. Where as Sennhieser try to stay as true to the tune as the artist really intended. Plus if you really do not like the true to the music tunes, just use Viper4Android's eq, bass and clarity, it'l have you setup for life. Plus the right Viper4Android settings could really enhance all frequancies for cleaner bass and lovely treble the artist was intending for your ears.
To wrap it up never buy Beats unless you want to look hahah lol "Cool", headphones are headphones not a fashion item. Worried about the fashion hype? Sennhieser have a great looking headphone called the 'Moumentums on ears". And they are amazing. They are abit pricey but can play frequancies in music that you have never heard before. Besides if your over 25 you loose some of your high end frequanies anyway. Because of age. But seriously Sennheiser have been praised by poruducers and Dj's everywhere.
> DO NOT FALL INTO A FASHION HYPE. YOU WILL BE SORRY, THAT YOU COULD NOT ENJOY YOUR JAZZ, ROCK, ETC AS THE ARTIST WANTED YOU TOO.
End of rant.
