[Q] Low Quadrant Score - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

My Quadrant Score on my Nexus 7 (LTE) is compared to my HTC One very low. I'm getting 7360 points.
With my HTC One the Score is about 12900 with same CPU/GPU clock and Voltages.
CPU clock speed: 2,1 GHz​GPU clock speed: 487 MHz​
Has anyone an explanation why the score is so bad? (and yes I know, benchmarks do not say anything )
And is there any Kernel that gives better performance and faster InGame loading?
Currently I'm using the latest faux123 kernel in combination with PACman ROM which runs quite stable

Quadrant scores always sucks on stock Google roms, antutu is Better but not perfect.. ..
Other company's optimize their software to this stupid benchmarks , not google ..
But from what I saw AOKP gives a nice score with antutu - around 23500, bit quadrant is an old and not very good benchmark .

Okay my antutu score is 24217, I've done everything, what was possible with faux kernel and PACman ROM, a fully overclocked Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 with TouchWiz X-Note ROM is getting around 22000 and with an HTC One everything maxed out in the Kernel-settings i'll get incredible 29233 Points with ViperOne Sense ROM.
The Nexus 7 is a really great tablet and I know I could get more out of it, but I shouldn't measure the device with stupid benchmarks

i agree quadrants a bit crappy with stock get between 4-5k
while a stock aosp rom get 7-8k with a few tweaks

[Q] Benchmark low - how to push the benchmark higher?

Hello!
So, I have a DHD with the Revolution HD ROM (2.0.8) and the Buzz Sense kernel. I have locked the CPU to min/max 1516MHz Perf. scaling and, upon running the AnTutu System Review 1.2("System Benchmark" under Market) I get a score of 1879.
Yet in the Rankings I see that the #2 device is a DHD with 2.2 @1516MHz with a whopping score of 2774!!!!!
So, how could I reach those heights? The only thing I can think of is the slow SD card that came with the mobile (read/write scores: 34/117), but other than that what could be holding me back?
Cheers

I have reached pretty high scores while testing, but then the overall rom smoothness has pretty much sucked. It is normal that synthetic benchmarks give lower results when you use a custom rom, the optimizations that ensure general smoothness and usability cause it. One big reason is CPU scheduling, in custom rom (custom kernel) cpu time is divided for each task in a different way, thus reducing the overall benchmark score.

Aha... but then this means that this or the other ROM do not let a specific app (say, a heavy 3D game) take the phone to its full potential...
Incorrect, it is just the synthetic benchmark that suffers. Games will run fine, faster than stock.
Jkoljo's right.The overall system speed is much better,performance is better,but it sucks a little in benchmarks.If you are so desperate to see high benchmark scores(I was once too! )try kamma's 1.4 kernel.Quadrant 3200.Need I say more?

Really? 3200? Wow. Just out of curiosity, what scores are you getting with other kernels?
Well, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter - I haven't seen an app or game that runs slow or choppy or whatever. It's just for the heck of it

Oh yeah,I know what tou mean!
Anyway,with Lee's and Apache's kernels I get about 2500-2600 in Quadrant.CPU clocked all the way up to 1.5 GHz of course!

Good benchmarks

Hey guys I hear a lot of negative stuff about how smooth the GN isn't and how the hardware is not that good but I must say that after 6 months of SGS2 use with many awesome roms like Checkrom etc and overclocking to 1600Mhz running a lot of benchmark tests I have to say that my experience with the GN has been awesome. Its smooth, fast and pretty.
But I saved all my Antutu, Nenamark and Quadrant scores and i have done a series of scores with the GN trying different roms and kernels and I say that the results, even only clocked to 1350Mhz were on average above my old SGS2. We should consider how much more effort is required to use the resolution of the screen to produce 6800 scores on Antutu and 3000+ scores on Quadrant.
This phone is really the next logical step and I actually get it why Google went down this path.

Nice to see a positive post for once.
Sweet as mate
I started a benchmark scores thread in general.
If you dont mind, can you post your ROM + Kernel and any OC/UV settings u applied.
Also, have u used CF-Bench and what was your score?
Cheers. Its big ie oc to 1350Mhz with Franco kernal.

Benchmark Scores For Non-Stock ROM's

Ive used several ROM's in the past on my Desire so far CM7.1 has had the highest benchmark for me at 1600 to 1700 i thought that to be pretty high but can people post what their highest benchmark is on the Desire, i want to know if 2000 is possible.
Which benchmark tool do you use.
On Antutu I consistently get over 2400.
Why do you care for benchmark scores anyway? The only important thing should be if a rom feels smooth and fast enough for oneself. This personal feeling cannot be shown by a number (no matter how high or low it is).
I was meaning Quadrant not antutu.
Mattdroid I was just wondering because on cm7 I got 1700 but on runnymede aio I get 400 usually which is really slow
With miui Rom and amarulz d2x script I got a 1970 on quadrant but with normal a2sd script on the same Rom quadrant score was 1200 although made no diff to smoothness of Rom

I can say quadrant score is not really reliable. It's all depends on the ROM setup. It is always at a high score for a data2sd, data2wherever, adx2sdx, int2sd and lower at a2sd and app2sd. It can be lower or higher with some tweaks in int.d.
If I ever need a benchmark, I would go for antutu, with whatever setup it always give more or less the same score for the same ROM.
In my opinion, Linpack will show if the rom is fast or slow. I tried Antutu and Quadrant but the scores do not match how I feel for the roms speed.

Quadrant score with 1.29

I've recently upgraded to the ARHD 5.0.0 Rom and my Quadrant score has dropped from an average of 4800 down to an average of 3800.
I realise quadrant is not the most reliable benchmark for realworld performance but that seems like a pretty big drop.
Anyone else know what could have happened?
Thanks.
What has happened is that it's meaningless Quadrant score has dropped. I'd just ignore it altogether.

People are reporting lower AnTuTu scores after 1.29 so if the ROM you're using is 1.29 based what you're observing could be a result of the update. Since Nvidia's code and drivers are proprietary the devs use it pretty much as-is.

As Nvidia plays around with low-level code and drivers to address battery life and fix the graphics issues they'll be tweaking the behaviour of the CPU. There were some pretty odd changes to the CPU code in the Prime while Nvidia was tackling its launch issues.
You have to do quadrant in stock rom.
On 1.26 and 1.28 stock rom it's easily around 4,600 to 4,800. Should be around the same for stock 1.29. I'll see it when I get the Asia ota.
I've tried most roms around and some of their versions are low and some after their update becomes on par with stock in terms of quadrant. It's due to the fact that they are doing heavy tweaking on the rom thus affecting performance a bit (whether for better or worse) . Good thing is they can easily rectify the problem on their next releases.
Although benchmark is not a clear indication of real world performance but it's always nice to get high scores nonetheless. Lol.

Which kernel is the best for scoring high scores on antutu and geekbench ?

WHICH KERNEL IS THE BEST FOR SCORING HIGH SCORES ON ANTUTU AND GEEKBENCH ? just for fun testing
I already getting 132576 Antutu scores on AOSP EXTENDED with Kangaroo OC kernel
And 1509 single and 5303 multi core geekbench scores on MASIK PIE with Kangaroo OC kernel .
Do you not have a life
ice cold kernel
Icecold is quite good it's also amazing on the battery life when undervolted. I get amazing screen on times it's simply amazing. I'm planning on uploading a guide soon on how to get the best battery life on our whyred.?
Best battery backup with great performance? Just use Masik, it's that simple, with default kernel
