I'm creating this thread based on what i read here: http://briefmobile.com/cyanogen-demonstrates-quadrants-flaws
I'd really like to know what lagfix gives me the best results and i lost my faith in quadrant. Are there any decent alternatives? Most benchmarks i know are only good for testing cpu performance...
Its not fair to say that quadrant sucks, and particularly I don't like that the article seems to be implying that the lagfixes that a lot of us are running are simply artificially inflating the SGS's score. The SGS has the best harware on the market crippled by bad firmware, and tbh I think its the lag fix that has allowed the hardware to be reflected in quadrant scores.
Anyway, quadrant doesn't suck. Its not perfect, but it does help you determine for example, how different ROMs on the same device compare for performance, as well as showing off things like GPUs that often don't get seen.
However it just runs a series of tests and weights the results accordingly. Particularly, the I/O seems to be given a lot of weight and so can be nobbled to increase the score. However, as anyone who has experienced excessive lag on their SGS can attest, it also works the other way. Without the lag fix, the SGS is a very pedestrian device, as the ~1000 quadrant scores tell you, while with the fix it FLIES.
Actually, some people are saying they notice no difference with the lag fixes it seems. And I've also seen forums full of people saying they can hear the difference between WASAPI/Exclusive audio and shared audio in Windows. Amazingly, out of the dozens of people trying to destroy me and demand it was implemented, none of them were willing to blind test (they were all just willing to say "it's obvious"). How many people here running the lagfix, have run any kind of blind test, or test with predictable steps to demonstrate a difference? Please, raise your hand people, because there is a huge difference between "it seems lag is gone" and "Lag is verified gone".
Quadrant is a guide, it doesn't test interactivity, and it only tests a few operations. It's similar to how a browser can pass ACID3, but have terrible compliance to new standards. Because people became so convinced of benchmarks accuracy, Nvidia and ATI started optimising for benchmarks.
Normal SSD's are also blazingly fast on benchmarks initially, but if they don't have TRIM, their performance drops significantly. That's another example of something benchmarks don't accurately test (because the testing is incomplete).
Use it to get a general idea of how the phone performs (although, specs might be more useful in some cases), but you probably need profiling and a predictable list of steps to diagnose the lag exactly. Run benchmarks which test according to the types of applications you are planning to run (if you play 3D games for instance, use a 3D game benchmark). But don't rely on them exclusively to tell you how well a device performs, because only running the applications and testing them yourselves can tell you.

But do you really think that one-click-lagix or whatever is that much faster than mimocan's one (like 2800 vs 1800)? I don't think so...

Predictable steps to demonstrate a difference:
1. Use 2 SGS, firmware of your choice
2. One with, say, 1 Click Lag Fix - the other one stock
3. Now for the test, perform simultaneously:
3.1. Open Market and go to "Downloads", update an app, close.
3.2. Open Contacts, quickly switch to favourites, dial Number. Drop call. Exit.
3.3. Open Messaging, conversation of your choice, quickly switch the writing language, write, send, exit.
3.4. bla bla goanforeva
Now if you don't notice an improvement there and in many other cases you most certainly have done something wrong.
If you are saying people are just being placebo-ed you are implying that everybody else besides you is unable to tell a real difference. Think about it, maybe it's the other way around.
When I got my device it came with the Asian JG4 firmware I think and I used it for 48hrs as a point of reference for this so called "lag" I updated my firmware to the latest we have and found zero difference in terms of performance ( same 2 day usage ) decided to flash my device with JM5 and used it w/o a lag fix for 2 days, notice a very slight improvment on how fast the inbox/contacts can open and then did a fresh flash with lagfix 2.x installed I didnt NOT notice any performance difference but I am always open and welcome to any lagfix that is stable,safe and fast ( in that order ) right now I have JG8 installed w/o lag fix and its very snappy, I still want to install a lag fix for this even if i dont see/feel any performance difference at all.. thats just me.. Now im wondering w/c lag fix is the most stable and safe.. stability/safty > speed
EDIT:
Also I believe it could be possible that certain versions of lagfixes work better with certain versions of firmware also, its all about getting the perfect combination.. altho my question still stands on w/c is the safest lagfix heheheh
Well actually i gave up on benchmarks.
To me the whole user experience is more important. If apps open instantly and the phone runs smooth then it's fine with me. I did notice some firmwares are better then other ones.
Right now i'm running JM1 (rev 3) with CFLagFix1.80 installed which makes the phone very stable and running smoothly so right now i'll stick to this firmware until a proper GPS fix is released or until Froyo is released.

Anandtech's review:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6440/google-nexus-4-review
Battery still meh if you are a heavy user, and benchmarks still affected by thermal throttling...it's hard to get a proper gauge though because the devices that the N4 is compared to change from graph to graph...I wish there was a consistent comparison with the LG Optimus G
+ve about the build quality and apparently it has been dropped a few times without issues...so could be not bad depending on how it's dropped. Running stock android is also another +
Will update thread with more links as they are posted.
Performance is good enough omg. We want better battery life. But once I have Cm10.1 on my N4 I'll uc the cpu so I have better battery life.

Raw hardware specs do not simply cease to 'exist' because software benchmarks show certain numbers.
We know the specs of the device, the hardware in it is more powerful than the majority of the phones out there, calling this OTA conclusive is still flawed.
Wait a while, or have fun joining in on the XDA arguing that I see as still pointless. The HTC One X forums taught me a lot about benchmarks...

The problem we're having is with the battery life, not the benchmarks. It's been proven that the poorer benchmark results are due to the CPU overheating and throttling down - which in turn gives it poor battery life - 5 hours video playback vs 8 hours on the Optimus G.
That's why people are dying over the new benchmark results, to see if it still throttles down or not.

Agreed. Call it early indicator if you will. If the benchmarks shows abnormal activities compared to sibling LG Optimus G than we have a problem. It also possible that Engadget's N4 has thermal problems like Anandtech but they didn't put in the fridge to proved thermal problems since both websites early benchmarks are equally crap compared to The Verge.

I hear what you're saying, but no other phone runs 4.2 from Google does it? I'd wait till later this week when we have many rooted devices, custom ROMS/kernels and what not.
The software HTC shipped the One X running on was an unoptimized mess (which also had heat issues).
The people storming around shouting conclusive and saying the phone has hardware issues only serve to make people fearful at this stage where it is too early to be conclusive of any hardware issues. Software issues will be aplenty on a launch of new hardware.

But there is a problem if the performance in benchmarks does not add up to what the 'specs' say.
It's like building two identical computers, put one in a different case...one running windows vista and say one running windows 8...
If the hardware is identical, the benchmarks should be VERY similar, if not there is something wrong with the build, hardware, drivers, software etc...and it is not working to it's potential.
This is quite alarming. Agreed with everyone that something is wrong. That's a huge difference: 4984 vs 7628. This might potentially make me wait to see if this some kind of bug. I mean in all seriousness, if I have the same hardware I would like it to perform the same. Google won't admit any wrong doing here either....that's good for ya. Let's hope they see the issue and try to find a fix.
Ugh. What a way to start my day....
new 3,4 kernel guys...give to google some times to fix that.
Well I just ordered one because I'm not really bothered by benchmarks. This is the first phone running on 4.2 and it's powerful enough as it is.
One thing I will point out is (from what I've seen) the N4 beats the Optimus G consistently in Geekbench 2 posting scores of over 2000. We need to ignore the browser benchmarks as chrome is not as well optimised as the old stock browser on Android.
We need to wait and see how the phone matures in time, I don't think there is a hardware issue here everyone is panicking over 2 phones that don't quite match each other...I know if my N4 goes wrong due to some unknown issue I know I can get a new one sent to me from Play so it's not really something that is going to bothering me.
Anyway, who buys their phone on benchmarks?! Are you benching it 24/7? No, so what's the need for you to see how a phone performs in tasks that you would never ever ask it to do in real world situations...
Came across this site:

Can anyone explain what this CPU isolation actually means and how it translates to actual performance and benchmark scores?

Not the benchmark score itself, but the "battery life" ... N4 is worse compared to LG OG, 5 hours video run-down vs 8 hours.
That's what worries me ...

And we are still not at final software. It will be multiple OTAs before we are at final software.
So, there's that.
I believe its a kernel problem. And also, why are you all comparing a jellybean ROM with a new kernel with an ICS one? That's not a really fair comparison in my eyes. That's just my opinion though

49,863 on STOCK KERNEL running FireKatv2 ROM!!!
Almost 50K on STOCK Kernel!!!!
Anyone break 49K on stock kernel? State your ROM you're using too...
This is all for fun, but has anyone hit 49K on the stock kernel?
I've tested all the available ROM's on the other N4 in my household and none has has hit 49K except, FireKatv2.
Show me! :good::good:
100% Stock rom and Stock kernel no root
I dont get it. I have been on a quest to make my phone better since the note 2. I always hit XDA and tinker and learn as much as I can but sometimes I see scores and I see people really excited about the "speed increase and battery life improvements with new roms etc, and I dont get it because for example this is my score without any work on the phone at all. My battery life is about 7.5 hours screen time with gps on and sync on all the time. Screen set to auto. Dont get me wrong I am a lover of modding and hate all the bs that carriers and sammy puts on the phones I am here because I love to work on my phone but I see no real difference right now even maybe I slow the phone down if I do anything to it. Whats going on? I remember on my note 3 I was able to see some improvement on my benchmarks over stock (not by much) and a little better battery life but again not a huge difference. Also I thought I should mention that on echoe rom I was able to score 24 to 25,000 on quadrant clocked at 2.2 ALL THE TIME I once even scored 27,000 when I was overclocked at 2.5. How come I never break 26,000 even tho I am clocked at 2.7 now. Also why am I scoring so high over modded phones
That's an excellent score! Well in your case it just proves that the stock software isn't terrible. It works....Simple as that. As for the modded peeps with custom ROM's, a lot of them have so much crap on there apps wise and have it heavily tweaked with wanam/xposed where it is really weighing down their phones.
I also have a theory about the CPU's in that they are not all created equal. Remember with the Note 3's there was a prompt in the dialer where you could go to a secret menu to see what type of processor you had. I think it was from 0-7 or something and the closer the number was to 7 meant you had a more efficient CPU, but not friendly / "as tolerant" to overclock as oppose to someone with a number closer to "0" which meant that it was more power hungry and more tolerant to over clocking. If you search for it you'll find what I'm talking about. ...
Anyway, I think we have the same thing going on here....where some of us just happen to have stronger CPU's. It's just like car engines.....not all are the same as every one of them have their own unique character. I remember when I got my AMG C Class and my buddy had the same one but a year newer. He used to smoke me (stock) where I had intake/exhaust/flashed chip. I just didn't get it. Sometimes you just end up with a [email protected]$$ CPU coming from a good batch LOL.
Another example is microSD cards...you can buy the same brand / type and all, but will always have different results. My Samsung 64GB PRO is faster than my other Samsung 64GB Pro that I have in another N4. Same phone, same chip...different speeds.
You have an awesome piece. Great score! I can't wait to break 50K's on a stock kernel!

If your phone was warm when you ran the test, that will effect the results.
Not used Antutu for a while but there should be an imformation tab, there you can see the battery temperature amongst other details. Try running it again when the battery is around 26-28c.
Hopefully then it will be a normal result.
Just ran Antutu and got 203k on stock Oreo.
These benchmarks are a complete waste of time. Honestly.

Benchmarks do not reflect how the device behaves in real life, the really important thing is how your device performs in everyday circumstances or in intense scenarios
Hi, i just got the device 2 days ago, i was on other firmware, and i had the same issue.
I updated to the 10.2.30, but nothing changed here are the scores,
Now before you tell me benchmark don't matter, i know, but im affraid cores may not boost during real life workloads and im getting crippled snapdragon 660 instead of s855, thank.
P.S. The phone is also not faster and even slower compared to s10 exynos in tasks, this is what made me investigate.
You sure you see those numbers reflected in daily tasks? I was curious if I'd get similar results and I did in geekbench but other benchmark apps give the result we'd expect so I'm pretty sure it's just the app that's at fault.
No, not completely but the phone is not faster and even slower compared to supposedly slower 9820 based s10...sometimes chrome starts to load web woth 2 seconds delay, and apps install time is also a bit sluggish
Well when my mi 9 came in I still had the oneplus 7 pro that I wanted to return so I compared them speed wise. Could barely tell that the mi 9 was slower than the 7 pro in download+install, most of the time it was almost the same if not the same and that's down to ufs 3.0 i guess. And believe me, I'm not boasting about my mi 9, because being fast is this phones's only quality, everything else is average at best in my opinion.
Can you do geekbench and pc mark work 2.0 for me please? just let few mins between runs and close everything from the background first, thanks alot!
P.S. What FW you are using? 64 or 128GB version?
You are using geekbench 5, use geekbench 4 if you want higher score.... Nice placebo just from a score.

Average, actually it takes better photos and video over the OnePlus 7 pro!
To back that up look no further then the 50 plus reviews on YouTube!
Also the Mi 9 has better ultra wide and telephoto cameras.
Has wireless 20watt charging like no other does which the OnePlus has no wireless at all!
Charges faster, 1hr flat, last longer,
IR blaster although nothing major still nice to have. I use it. Especially at sports bars when you want your game! Lol
The only thing the OnePlus 7 pro truly beats the Mi 9 at is the display. Other then that the fact is the Mi 9 is even faster! Proven.
The 3.0 is only for data transfer out a USB C cable. Not to important to me overall!

My bad I will due a geekbench 5 tomorrow but geekbench is not really that good. If you want the best run the new AnTuTu 8 . Whatever to see what your getting as that test memory, CPU, GPU, and UX. Try that but the Mi 9 should do better then just about anything but a gaming phone!

My 1st result running warm and worth 5 apps loaded I will post below and more tomorrow. But it beats every registered score they have for Android and by a decent bit and that's with apps running and warm!!
Gokh is right, they changed the score multiplier in geekbench 5 it seems, it's easy to tell if you look at other phones' score, they're all in the same league.
I did the geekbench 5 on 10.2.28 EEA, 128 GB and got a similar result, a bit lower. I don't know what pcmark work 2.0 is, I typically just use antutu as it tests many things without going through the hassle of installing 6 other apps and is maintained properly.

It is very easy to start to imagine things that is not true based on a misinterpreted performance score!
Mi 9 is definitely faster then S10 exynos in use.
