HTC Incredible 2 - Stock OTA (Gingerbread 2.3.3):

About: I could not find an official Incredible 2 benchmark thread. Now that ROM development is progressing, why not start one? So many comments are made about how fast a ROM feels, and I know that raw numbers don't completely convey this, but a comparison would still be beneficial. Please do three runs of each, and average them.
The main 3 benchmarks I'll start with is Linpack, Quadrant (both apps), and Sunspider (web browser JS benchmark).
HTC Bliss 3.5.
Quadrant- 1450
Linpack- Around 40

I really hope I'm not opening the troll floodgates, but why would you want to overclock your phone?
Doesn't it sacrifice battery life? What applications require OC'ing?

Its like cars man. People like numbers. Its kind of a **** stretching competition. My phones faster than yours, my phone has more Ghz.
This OP stated nothing about overclocking, just how different ROMs ran in comparison.

That's insane for the Dinc2. I'm looking forward to a conservative overclock on a stable AOSP rom once I can get one. CM7, or OMFGB. I've had problems with OMFGB though so I went back to stock.
I've seen 49 Mflops linpack at 1.5GHz.

What about comparing performance implies OC'ing? If you want to compare 2 cars do you have to increase their horsepower first? To me this thread is more about comparing benchmarks on different roms with similar clock speeds (OC or not) to allow people to get an idea of how one might compare to another performance wise.
Unofficial Aokp build 38 - aerovan v10.5 - 1113600khz - smart ass v2 - -1 step across the board for voltage
Linpack: 37.712 mflops in 2.22 seconds
Quadrant: 1726
*Edit* kHz not ghz.... I would be holding records probably for decades if not over a century if my phone was overclocked to 1.1million ghz. Lol

They surely aren't "useless" but they don't mean everything. If a phone gets a 2000 quadrant score it most likely will outperform a phone that gets 1500.

With that being said - maybe people can add a brief statement regarding if the rom they are posting about has been running on their phone for a while (ie, loaded with daily apps) or if it is a clean load.

This is my compilation of Antutu Benchmarks...I've done many others so expect more.
- All ROMS benchmarked at 768MHz except stock V...set to Airplane mode except Sun Spider
- Ran 3 of each benchmark...I never ran them after each other so no caching.
- Swap partitioned to 128Mb/512Mb fs .... I've shown that partitioning doesn't matter in my other post (check below)
- Phones only used the benching programs & a screenshot app
This took awhile, probably greater than 2 weeks as I restarted again and again when I found better ways to set up the phone, but I like to see actual numbers to back up reasoning...more to come!!!

You don't want that. Better off getting aospCMod.
Hey what filesystem are you using when doing these benchmarks? Also on the stock ROM benchmark on quadrant advanced, are you using the stock unrooted kernel? because I have a stock unrooted v that has never had anything flashed to it and im getting like 480's.
Unreliable
You can't judge a phone when it comes to anything based off of CM7. CM7's stage fright is unstable and basically, skips some of the initial tests and marks them as completed. This causes highly inflated scores. All the 2.2 or non CM7 based ROM's will post more accurate and relevant scores. I have tried almost all of these ROM's and Bumble Bee is the winner for me. Off of real performance speeds, not Quadrant Scores..

True, but that only applies to benchmarks that use stagefright enabled tests, such as Quadrant. He ran his tests on several different benchmarking tools. Besides, we all know benchmarks don't matter, right?

I seem to have better performance out of cm7. I play crusade of destiny every now and then. It lags a bit on bumblebee and other 2.2 rpm's, but its pretty smooth on cm7.
Sent from my VM670 using tapatalk
thank you so much for doing this work man. This is exactly the kind of critical information that a newer user like me needs. In fact I consider this one of the more critically important posts / collection of data that I have come across in my searches for the ROM that will best fit my needs.
I've been torn between a few ROM's (Stock V, Harmonia, Bumblee, Gingerbread based ROM) and this data you've provided will allow me to pick a ROM based on 1) the features I think I will need 2) it's performance level relative to other ROM's.
That's not to say some developers might not leapfrog each other in performance, but it gives me a good idea of who is on a path that I also wanna walk on. And right now that's looking like Harmonia to me (maybe Bumblebee as a trial). But I LOVE the absolutely stripped down nature of Harmonia 1.3.1 on my LG OV.
again, thank you so much for this info.
Interesting. I'd love to see you test Jerry's or KemikalElite's ROMs. On a straight IHO build ondemand @ 245-729MHz I'm getting into the 1500s on AnTuTu, low 900s on Quadrant[1], high 9s on Linpack single threaded.
1: Quadrant seems to be rather dependent upon minimum CPU speed here, as bumping that up a bit got me into the 1100s.
Quadrant scores should be completely thrown out. It's easy to optimize code for the benchmark. Acer released an official patch that did just that for some of their Android phones.
Smartbench may be a better choice. I also would like to see one of the I.H.O. builds tested against the other ROMs.

At this point no one should be downloading AOSP due to its lack of support and general lack of being a good ROM. Bumblebee (2.2, most stable, super fast, great battery life, etc, but stock), Harmonia (2.2 with a lil more features), Ath3nos (most stable 2.3/CM7 so far) and Inferior Human Organs (2.3, CM7.1, still some issues but wide open source, actual bug logging, etc.)

I agree with most of this, except whether Ath3nos is most stable, it's based on an earlier source of IHO, and IHO had a lot more fixes since then. I haven't had any issues with IHO (except the documented ones already, a shrinking list), maybe because it's better documented it seems easier to pick at the details. It should be THE Gingerbread/CM7.1 to use for Optimus V right now.

Cyanogen 1.8ghz
Underclocked and still better than stock. Runs great at 768mhz. No complaints.
Maximum overclock on stock CM7 kernel (~1.5ghz).
I did some tests with the CM7 Nightly 3. I got some amazing scores:
Stock cpu speed:
1.2GHz:
1.45GHz:
1.6GHz:
1.7 and 1.8GHz gave me lower scores than 1.6GHz, so I guess its safe to say 1.6Ghz is the max stable speed.

Interestingly, after some tweaking, messing around, and other stuff, I managed to score over 2200 at 768mhz. I'm getting some nice smooth performance out of it while underclocked, and getting it to do things quicker means it'll save that much more battery.

I'm not really sure, to be honest. I was mostly tweaking personal preferences, then messing with governors on the CPU. While comparing governors, the number kept climbing until it broke 2200 then fell back to just under 2200. I double checked my CPU clock settings to make sure I was still at 768mhz. I haven't really done any further testing. I suspect part of it may be JIT optimizations, but I'm not sure.

Yea I was messing around with the different govenors after reading your post and I noticed a big difference between the power saver and ONdemand. Power saver makes the transitions a little sluggish but I guess that's to be expected for what it's trying to do. lol All in all though the battery life on ondemand is leaps and bounds ahead of the stock ROM I'm running a 1.1ghz clock right now and it is like butter with battery life to boot.

So how about some advice and pointers? Your RAM is one thing that is killing me, and if I were able to get 1650-1700MHz I figure the CPU figures will help themselves.

I don't trust any kernel that isn't based off of stock pulled at this point. I have social hub, media hub, and all the drm apps frozen. I think I have the odexed nociq mod but that might've gone away when I had to revert to a nandroid backup not sure. Don't use a live wallpaper.. That's about all I can think of really. Every phone is different so we could have the exact same setup and get different scores.

Hi.
When i bought my SGN i knew it was the fastest phone at the time.
Now, 4 months later i've got myself a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
First thing i did, was to get some ICS on it. I used AOKP ROM.
To see how well it performed, i ran a Quadrant test on it. It scored good, and even better after i activated overclock (1,4GHz)
Just for the fun of it, i ran the same test on my SGN, and i was surprised over the results!

Quadrant is unreliable.
people still use quadrant?
It's a bar graph showing the different results of an application called "Quadrant". The higher the bar the "faster" your device is perceived to be. This tool is often used to determine the speed of devices when they are first received or used to determine how well a specific ROM/Kernel/Mod works.
If you need any more explaining please let me know.
Oh god, a benchmark thread!!
What are you trying to accomplish with this app if you have both devices in hand.
Use them and you can see if one performs better. If you need an app to tell you that then surely there is no noticeable difference.

Thank you for not jumping my throat like the other posters seems to do
My SGN seems fastest in some games f.x. Temple Run.
So i wondered why the device with the lowest score, performed best in this game.
Now i know that benchmarks zre used for testing the performance of different roms on the same device (if i understood you correctly)

quadrant means nothing. literally. there are hacks to the kernel that can skew the results heavily.
Quadrant is not a reliable result. Can't find some dev's comment that put it perfectly...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
I hate how quadrant combines everything. Most of your score is I/O port speed.
Quadrant really needs to break down each benchmark separately and compare them better (ex: CPUvsCPU ). Overall it seems pretty comparable to the Nexus if you try to match up what counts. Looking at it, Tab has a slower processor, faster GPU, faster port IO, and comparable 2D. Nothing we didn't know already comparing our Nexus chips with the Tegra 2.

Yes, you used a benchmark.
You do not want to use a benchmark, for they are unreliable and full of crap. (I needed a few years until I fully understood this, too)
The main purpose of "multimedia benchmarks" is to make you want to buy a newer, faster device with a higher benchmark score.
If your device feels fast enough, it is fast enough.
STOP USING FREAKING BENCHMARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jeez....
If you put the gov. on performance or ondemand you can easily get the score in the 3k with the GN.
Also, benchmarks don't mean anything.
It's like saying that 1000hp Bugatti can go around a track faster than the Ferrari 458 because it has 400+ more horsepower. It just doesn't. The Bugatti may perform faster, but it doesn't quite move like the 458...get it?
Horrible comparison btw.

That's because he's flame-baiting. Of course we know what Quadrant is.
My SGN seems fastest in some games f.x. Temple Run.
So i wondered why the device with the lowest score, performed best in this game.

Because quadrant is horribly unreliable. It is comically unreliable. Reviewers don't even use it anymore and have long since moved to better benchmarks. Quadrant's flaws are heavily documented and go waaaaay back. The most notable major criticism of Quadrant was from Cyanogen some 2 years ago:
http://androidspin.com/2010/08/23/my-quadrant-is-bigger-than-your-quadrant/
http://briefmobile.com/cyanogen-demonstrates-quadrants-flaws
Quadrant has not improved since then.
Well firstly you thought wrong when you bought your nexus as the galaxy s 2 is much much faster than the nexus so there was your first problem, second I would probably expect the galaxy tab to be faster as the nexus is a slow device and thirdly you are using benchmarks.
I'd do more research in future.before buying phones and tablets and would of bought galaxy s 2 for speed and Asus transformer prime for a tablet.

That 1.7ghz clock speed. Can't even imagine how many times your cpu was throttled during those tests. To OP don't use benches as trying to guage the performance standard of your device. Gnex delivers a nearly flawless user experience when it comes to UI, browsing and gaming.

Lol you're right, that guy is insane if he thinks the galaxy nexus is "slow."

I ran Quadrant Pro at 1802mhz on the CPU and 512mhz on the GPU (Franco Kernel & Jelly Belly ROM)
This was the result.

thats lousy! id be embarrassed to show that off to people. i suggest a kernel change. anyways, that post does not belong here in development, nor anywhere near development heres trinity at 1728mhz..

LMAO! Damn you simms
can't beat simms at his own game =P
First off, that's embarrassingly low. I've gotten 4,000+ at 1.6GHz. Second why the hell did you post that in this section? I thought you needed 10 posts to post in a dev forum. Mods please close and OP read the damn rules.

lol, unfortunately not true though. there are a few that know how.
i just think that anybody running at 1802mhz should know how to propery use it or not be allowed to run that high of an oc. i mean, the op isnt getting any benefit from it unless you call a higher rate of battery loss a benefit. learn how to benefit from a high oc like this, or dont use it. its pointless to show off that youre using a high oc if a slightly oc'd(1344mhz kernel) can run laps around your phone. dont get me wrong, i know that franco kernel is capable, but this does it no justice.

trinity FTW!
Then someone do tell me a good kernel and how to do a proper OC thats stable, efficient etc etc.. Im **** at OC'ing.. i just put franco kernel 512mhz and was allowed the option to go 1802mhz, which ive never seen before..
What development are you doing here?
None? Then why is it posted in development?!!

Franco Kernel is a great kernel, yo must be doing wrong. I have achieved that score with franco's at 1.3 OC and Stock JB ROM...

try them all, or a few different kernels at least. every phone is different, and will react differently to different kernels. also, just because you can oc to 1802, doesnt mean that your phone will properly handle it. at this point, it looks like you arent getting any of the gain from this high oc(some loss actually), but are going through your battery like you are. first off, at that high oc, turn off thermal throttling if you are going to benchmark. play with adjusting voltages until you find your sweet spot at that oc. try ocing less too, your phone might not like 1802, or 1700, or 1600.. not many phones do. also, when you benchmark, benchmark with your hiest cpu speed/highest cpu speed(1802/1802) so that you dont scale and actually bench 1802mhz.

very likely youre right.
Not even worth overclocking honestly.
Only for benchmark scores, your phone most likely doesn't run that much faster.

funny, only people that dont overclock say that, i guess they really do believe it for themselves. but in reality, there is a difference. if its a slight overclock, its not that different. when its a big overclock, the difference can be dramatic.

I have overclocked before, I've done it before on the GNex as well.
I mean it was a huge increase of ability to a single core phone and early dual cores but for a phone already seemingly perfect on the software side, the phone already screams as stock clock speeds.
Besides, is it worth the probable loss of battery life? A marginally higher benchmark score? Things opening 1 or 2ms faster?
This is all just my opinion, I have no hard facts behind all this, but at least in my own personal testing and experimenting, there was no obvious benefit.
Provided you might be right, I've never OC'ed past 1.5, but beyond that, what's the effect on the health of the hardware, and like I said, battery life?
I could be totally wrong and I'm not against admitting being wrong.
Just personal preference I guess.

agreed. i myself use stock frequencies on franco kernel i've used almost all kernels and roms possible but now i've stuck with aokp n franco smooth even when under-clocked to 1 Ghz. i find no point of oc'ing other than just benchmarking usually get 3.4-3.3K on quadrant with normal freq.

Your phone spends most of its life in the 350/700mhz range.
