Hello all,
I just installed the new JPM firmware, and run Quadrand benchamrk on it.
I get less than 1000 points, wich puts this below N1 and DroidX.
I dont really tested this with the original firmware.
Is there a problem with my phone's hardware?
Or is it the firmware?
Our phone should be similar to N1, right?
How much points do you get with this firmware?
Thanks!
EDIT:
- I format and wipe all data before flashing.
- Its rooted.
This is usually how the SGS scores without lagfix on eclair... But quadrant doesn't exactly give you accurate real-life usage performance statistics...

hm... Maybe it s good idea to apply the lag fix?
I think you should just wait for the official froyo release for SGS from Samsung.... It's literally just around the corner now! Otherwise, you can try (and I personally recommend) RyanZA's awesome, OCLF 2.0 since it's the simplest to use...

Using the lag fix will get you 2000points. Helps the file system speed

Greate. i apply the lag fix and get 1800 points now.
The quadrand bench probably dont messure real world usage, but it was breaking my psych..
It could be subjetive, but i think appbrain listing of installed application runs a little faster.
Thanks!
Hi guys,im new to xda dev.So guide me throughout my life here..Okay erm,so my question is how do i make my galaxy ace run faster in ways like the speed of booting,loading games and stuffs like that.Please answer my question.

Not a ton. The ace isn't the fastest phone (800mhz processor stock). If you want a faster phone, I suggest a new one.
Anyway, first is overclocking the processor. The highest stable I think I've seen is 921mhz. This however ends up killing your battery (works the other way around too). For this you need an overclockable kernal (I don't know how to do it or where to get it lol). Another thing you can do is remove useless apps (so thinks like email, Gmail, maps and things that aren't usually used). This will free up some RAM and make sure that you don't have many apps running in the background at the same time. Speaking of RAM, get an app to manage that as well. Don't know how effective it truly is, but its something to do. Get rid of a few things like live wallpapers and FM radio as well as that's a lot of ram and CPU usage right there. Just look for key words in the title such as "light" (for useless apps being removed) and "OC kernal" (for the overclock) and hopefully you'll get what you are looking for.
Oye... I dunno.... I'm no pro at this (I'm not even a dev), but I'm just throwing out suggestions.
Anyway, use search, Google it, and experiment. Hopefully you can get some good performance from this cool little mid range device, but remember, its that, a midrange device. Not gonna beat the S3 anytime soon

I own the Galaxy Ace, and there is no way you can make it faster.
I tried so much: Switching Custom ROMs, Uninstalling apps, Overclocking etc.
But they all don't work.
The Ace is cheap, you can't get something as fast as a Galaxy SIII or HTC One X for that price.
The thing is, it is faster or we think it is faster?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
Overclocking is very useful and as others have said, works in a ratio with battery. Once you have rooted your phone, find a custom ROM you like ( I recommend Apocalypse by Itsoulas - it is very, very fast and best for games) because they are brilliant at helping you do what you normally cannot on the stock rom.
Good luck and welcome to Xda! :beer:
Sent from my phone... AND WHAT
What Ace said is true, but my phone's battery life is already poor without overclocking.
First thing
Since when does the ace has legs ?
It cant run
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
Its so easy
1. He wants the best performance right??yes.
So i would prefer the official stable cyanogenmod rom with some tweaks. And maybe not so usefull at all but also overclocking, like many of you said it before.
2. Come on guys we have an almost 2 years old ARMV6 device which was from the first release date since today a midrange or maybe lowend device. So please. Its natural that we cant compare it with quad core or dual core phones, in some cases even not with singlecore armv7 devices.
All in all its a sexy phone with iphone look and acceptable performance at all. AND its still cheap

I am very disappointed with this device. Since I bought this phone always had problems.
Starting from overheating when I'm playing something.
Then the side of the device begins to peel.
Then mold spots appear on the screen.
Then this whole bootloader, rom buggy, etc.
If this device was really good, I do not feel the need to change rom and make the machine go through so many updates. The handset comes with manufacturing a critical bug in the camera. Among other problems. Now I finally got my braces bad time. If I can not fix it I have to leave for Samsung.
I'm no novice user. I've had three devices of Lg.
Lg Optimus One Phone = Bug Phone.
Lg Optimus 2x = Bug Phone.
And now the Lg Optimus 4x = Hd Bug Phone.
I am seriously evaluating getting a Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Visit the forum of this device in Xda. Hardly find complaints about it.
Lg P880 I bought this because it is cheaper, but now I find that cheap actually ends up costing too high.

Mold spots? If that's true you can't really blame the phone 'cause moisture = mold.
Also, try playing games on any phone and it will get hot. This goes for literally any device on the planet.

Yep same here the "quad core+1" tegra 3 "blazing fast" cpu is one real bad cpu to start with, it sucks for real tasks and overheats for that matter. the screen isn't like the other hd ips screens it has a yellow temperature tint unlike the others the blues look desaturated the most out of all the colors and it feels cheaply made.

please define your "overheating"
overheating is when your device powers off, due to 90°C processor temperature...
the tegra 3 default throttle temp is 85°C, LG's is 71°C... i changed the value in my custom kernel to 80°C, so we can get a better performance also with high temps...
and have you ever been thinking what's working in your device? you've got 4 CPU cores and 1 GPU core... now think of a normal PC, what does a normal PC have, what a phone doesn't? right, a fan. or cooling in general. so the higher temps are completely normal...

Somewhere is problem. I have same phone, only problem is with the bubbles under screen but chrome line still like new, no overheating (max temp about 50° when playing games) and the screen for me much better then samoled (yes, i have s3 and change it - hate design and display absolutly unreadable outside).
And stock rom? Buggy? I havent any stopped aplication since i have this phone, lg launcher is really good.
For me, only bad is camera and sound output with stock player (so im using poweramp )

Meh, another complaining thread.. Personally, I don't even care about and i predict i'm not alone with that.
If u don't like the phone, just sell it, what's the problem?
And i don't see any overheating problems, what are You launching, Crysis from PC?
I think this is the best phone for this price.many phones is the same like ours but cost too much.desighn is verry cool,we dont have many roms and kernels because we just unlocked ours bootloaders and i think we have to wait little more for more stuf.

Play your games in the fridge! All quad cores get hot! The Samsung amoled screens are horrible! I fancy an s3 because I am a mobile gamer, but if kholks new kernel can give me the performance I was expecting then no way! Everything else about this phone is so much better than Samsung!

If you have any problems like bubbles under the screen or excessive-myfingersareburning-overheating you should probably use your warranty and get this device checked by authorized personel. Personally, I had none of these problems you mentioned. Phone is rooted, bootloader is unlocked, CyanogenMod is happily running "under the hood". Stock ROM was pretty good for me, but CM is CM. You can't say 'no' to CM. If you don't like this phone, then sell it. Note 2 is indeed a powerful device, I'm sure that you'll be happy with it. But! This phone has yet to show its true power through custom ROMs and kernels. My old 2010 flagship - HTC Desire - got ROM with JB and Touchwiz5 powered by awesome custom kernel, so I really have no doubts that our O4X, which is 10 times stronger than Desire, will get some sick modifications sooner or later (starting with EternityProject kernel and CM 10.1). Cheers! :highfive:

I can't speak much of comparing the 4X to other phones as my last phone was some crappy chinese knock-off of a htc sensation. But my 4X is built very well (id like to see what you guys mention as 'bubbles' under your screen, was it like that since you brought it?) the phone does get ridiculously hot (you might have seen my thread about my screen suffering major distortion for a few hours, due to overheating while on ac charge ), but again well within tegra 3 specs (this this is stock clocked at 1.5ghz which is 200mhz higher than my tf300t tablet which has much more room to dissipate heat)
Im in love with the design of the phone, only issue i have is i feel the back button is on the wrong side but i use LMT launcher anyway(if you don't know what it is i suggest you look it up). The stock firmware was fine(no issues) other than feeling bloated, stock jellybean was slightly smoother and a bit lighter, CM10.1 is absolutely amazing and in my opinion increases the value of the phone drastically.
Just my take on it.....

My last phone was a One X and this is on a par at least with that, except in gaming until I at least hope custom kernels will change that.

I ran an Antutu benchmark and was surprised to find that I scored only 15078! That's like half what it should be, right?
Only questionable app running is themer. Any other ideas what could be causing such a low benchmark? Phone is not particularly laggy. Maybe when hanging up calls sometimes, I end up hitting the wrong button because it lags after hangup.
Update: uninstalled themer and that got it up to 20,000 but still rather low...

It's because much like the newer Samsung phones, your becnhmark results were boosted. Part of the KK update blocks boosted benchamark scores. This is also why results are so different between stock and source builds. What you're getting now, and what you would get on source based builds are your more accurate benchmarks.
Besides, benchmarks don't matter 1 bit. They in no way reflect real world use.
I purchased a new prepaid T-Mobile Note 4 from BestBuy few days ago. Today I have noticed that when I run benchmarks, I am getting very low scores. On Antutu, I am only getting around 26000, but sometimes I am getting the normal scores i.e, 46k. Even when running other benchmark applications, I noticed that I was getting only around half scores but sometimes I am getting normal scores.
I don't understand this strange behaviour. Is my phone defective ? Should I return it ?
P.S: I have not rooted this phone. I tried a factory reset, and there is no power saving mode turned on.
Does the phone feel slow? Is it heating up under normal use?

The phone is OK and gets heated up at times. Yesterday I played MC5 for about 15mins it was okay,but sometimes while running benchmarks it gets heated up
Can someone help me my phone feels absolutely normal but my benchmark scores are not that good.... Really?
Stop benchmarking phones I keep telling people that.. Not everyone phone will perform the same as long as it feels nice and snappy you should be all set
Some people have loaded hundreds of apps on to their phones, which can affect performance.
Do you have a lot of apps? How's your free space?
I wouldn't really rely on benchmarks as the sole indicator of performance. That being said, is the phone laggy? You said it performs "OK" but one person's idea of OK can be quite different than the next persons idea of it.
Also, where did you purchase the phone from? There's quite a few fake Note 4's floating around. If you purchased it through your carrier, go ahead and request a swap.
Do you have on power saver mode?
Best buy sells note4 for TMOBILE? Hmmmm by me they don't support any TMOBILE.

I know benchmarks are not an indication of performance, but atleast there should be some consistency, right ? Sometimes, I get normal scores similar to other Note 4 devices as expected. But sometime I get HALF the scores or much less than older devices, something which is not expected out of this device. So I doubt is there anything wrong my particular unit ?

Majority of benchmarks put so much load on processor that after few minutes it heats up, overheat protection kicks in and slows down cpu. If you run few benchmarks one after each other then phone has no time to cool off. There is some roms available on xda which modifies how long you can run on full speed and higher temperature until cpu slows down.

A modified kernel is the only thing that will allow you to adjust thermal throttling. Hoever i do not recomend adjusting theses settings, this will damage your cpu. Thats what the thermal governor is for.
Oh, yeah. When I got my N4, the benchmarks sucked! Slower than my S3! Rooted, put on a custom ROM and it's all good. No heating, nothing. Even went back to Stock when the update came...and it was still good. Not sure, what was wrong...or what happened from Stock to Custom to Stock...

Haha yes. It's very strange though. So, I have finally decided to root and install a custom ROM. I only hope there is no heating.
And do I lose the possibility of updating to official Lollipop through Odin (not OTA's) when the offical 5.0.2 comes out ?

Overheating should be reduced. Lollipop you will have to odin stock firmware or if you made a back up of stock rom with a stock kernel.
