i am consistently getting low Quadrant Benchmark scores on my SG2. is there a hardware fault with my device? my average score is 2800 and there is virtually nothing running in the background when performing the benchmark tests.
Does it fell slow? If not you shouldn't care, Quadrant is a pos.

well, interestingly, gameplay isn't so great in asphalt 6 adrenaline samsung apps free version, and there is minimal lag when swiping between screens in apps folder (could be due to crappy screen protector)
but i've gone through more than one sg2 in the past, and this is the first one showing scores less than 3000. =(
I do occasionally get 3000-3200, but in most cases <3000 (even when doing 3-4 tests in a row)
There is a new option in settings called system power saving that limits the cpu to only 800mhz, try that.

+1.
Quadrant is ****. Nuff said.
This may be a dumb question but has underclocking a CPU been shown to damage it at all? Be it longterm or short? I know excessive overclocking can take it's toll on the life of a processor and was just wondering if the opposite was true also.

Well I'll answer with my common sense: I don't see a negative effect on the chip. Underclocking too much could effect your performance and might cause reboots. Best way to go about it is trial and error. Find a stable setting and go from there.

I'm not asking about stability...I'm asking about actual damage. I'm aware of what underclocking does to phone performanne. I'm asking if someone knows either from experience or from information available somewhere if it can physically damage the processor...not just an assumption...but thank you anyhow.

Underclocking does not damage anything hardware wise. In fact all recent processors do it very often for energy efficiency reasons. Your phone its probably doing it right now. It will go to its stock rated speed (1 GHz for photon) when you run a game or something else system intensive and it will clock back down to 216 GHz (lowest stock rated speed) when you quit or anywhere imbetween depending on load.

EDIT: Meant 216 MHz. Sorry.

You cant underclock below what it was designed for and my regular kernels keep voltage below safe values so.....

Yeah it shouldn't really have to much of an effect seeing as you are basically allowing it to do less. Just as long as you are not running to much for it to handle at its underclocked speed.... In theory at least.
I run both OC and UC setups depending upon what I'm doing IE "Charging" or "Screen off". And I've yet to see any negative effects.
Well seeing uderclocking makes it so its "walking" instead of "running" so it should be able to keep its "breath" longer.. less stress does usally me longer life. So i would say it helps your phone life overall and battery life longer overall

No its like running with less weight

Im new to this phone, came from the incredible, on that phone i could clock sense 1.075 and aosp 1.113. What is a safe speed that is stable on this phone? Thanks for the help!
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Safe is stock clock speeds. Overclock is different for each individual device produced. Only way to find your devices limits is to test them carefully.
I OC'd up to 1.5 for a while but honestly, I barely saw an appreciable difference in performance
it was pretty stable though!
I've been using setCPU to underclock while the screen is off and keep the speed from dropping under .7 while the screen is on, but not OCing at all...stable, snappy, and I'm getting a few extra battery hours to boot.
Thanks for the replies, ill play around with it.

I've took mine to 1.9

pointless to OC. i am under-clocking at 768mhz max/245mhz min lagfree and is flies
I ocd, then backed it down to normal. The difference in speed was minimal, difference in battery was muy grande!

1.2 is probably a safe speed for most tbolts. I personally don't oc though. No need.

as stated above there really isn't any performance gain when overclocking I ran at 1.6 for a few days and never noticed a difference so i dropped it back to normal and again noticed no change. I think the real gains in performance are made by installing a rom.
Would I get better speed if I disabled 1ghz frequency and left 1.2ghz the default Max frequency?
Would it be faster?
Or slower? Or nothing?
Don't like the 1ghz frequency. But I notice my phone is a little slower when disabling. It.

I thought you were making a kernel with 1.9 ghz overclock? That should be fast enough

Kidding, correct?
1.2 > 1.0

Good to see enyo has found where he belongs in xda. Asking questions and learning.
This is a big improvement enyo.
as to 1.2 feeling slower, your putting a massive undervolt on it. Try backing it off a bit and see if responsiveness comes back. Also, higher clock speeds can lead to better battery in theory by completing tasks faster and allowing the CPU to govern back down to a idle state.

Thanks. Your right. Backed to -75mV on 1.2ghz and faster response came back.
Also it because really fast after switching to the Medium Leakage.
I rarely let my phone sleep, so 1.2 is the maximum I'll go for speed/battery.
But, the more you UV, you get laggy if its too low, but stable?

Honestly -50uv across the board yields the best performance, battery life and reliability.

Is there a advantage if it's undervolted 100+ mV?

that would be called overvolting... yes performance may increase, but inturn added heat, less battery life and instability can occur with it.

So -50mV is just enough?
I'll do that. Your good with setups of oc/uv.
Seems really stable for me.
Trying Low leakage for better battery. But Medium is perfect right
Now.

just tried your setup. And I didn't know how slow my phone was till I used yours. So undervolting to much does slow down your phone. And it Got hot out of no where.
Thanks

So I've been unable to get higher benchmarks than what I've attached. I know its not really a way to judge my phone, but rather me being curious. How are people getting such high scores on their rezounds? I'm currently running CleanROM 4.1 and loving every bit of it. Let me know what your scores are and what you've done to get those scores.

the highest score i ever got was 7200 on BAMF ICS v1.1 with SebastianFM's kernel.

I got a very similar score the first time I ran Antutu with CleanRom 4.1 (in the mid 3000's). I tried it again a few days later, not having changed anything in particular and got a 6276. So I'm not sure why there was a 3000+ point discrepency.
I've tried it a couple times and its consistantly in the 3000 range. I've never seen even remotely close to 7000 on my Rezound no matter what Rom I was running, lol.

those benchmarking apps are inaccurate and useless. tried running twice back to back. first over 7000 then just barely 3500. total waste of time

Yeah I know they're not accurate, but until I have a better way to test it, I use em for the hell of it.

im also getting crap benchmarks on any gb kernel i try, doesn't make sense for a dual core device.
I've been hitting around 6k with Antutu.
I mostly use it as a comparison to my old Inctedible though...this phone is super smooth, so I don't really care what the benchmark says!

I've been getting decent scores with quadrant, but they haven't updated the list of devices so its hard to have anything to compare it to. I haven't tried the other one.
Also, I know there's a difference, but I get scores in the high 8000s with my Xoom overclocked to 1.5 ghz, but only 3000s with my Rezound clocked at 1.5 ghz as well.

This has been discussed in Sebastians thread. It has to do w/ an issue with mpdecision. Besides benchmarks mean nothing!
All Day
I consistently get over 7000 when I run Antutu. Overclocked to 1.834 on cleanrom 4.3
I get close to 3000 with Quadrant...but I only really use it to see if new tweaks help or hurt.
