[Q] Adreno 305 GPU speed and governor - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I have a S3 mini sm-g730w8 and it has an Adreno 305 and I know that the S4 mini also has the same gpu so I was wondering if you guys have a faster gpu and what your gpu governors are because I use my phone for gaming and I've seen videos of s4 minis playing games more smoothly than my s3 mini. And on Antutu I score about 4900 in 3d graphics where as you guys score about 5700. Could your extra 500mb of ram and 500mhz play a factor in that? Btw you can check your gpu speed and Governor using Trickster Mod. Thanks in advance

The S3 has Mali-400, not the Adreno afaik. Plus the SoC krait is totally different between the S3 mini vs S4 mini.

You're actually wrong, the carrier variants SM-G730W8 and SM-G730A both have the Adreno 305 and our SoC, the Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8930 is very similar to your MSM8930AB in the S4 Mini. And btw I clearly stated I'm talking about the SM-G730W8 variant not the GT-I8190international variant in my first post so please understand that I wasn't talking about the version with the Mali-400 and the NovaThor SoC. So can anyone check in Trickster Mod what the S4 Mini has as the GPU governor and the max GPU frequency?

I need researchers

APQ8064 1.5 - 1.7 GHz Quad Krait Adreno 320 QXGA 1080p No Modem 20 MP
gpsOneGen 8A with
GLONASS
Hexagon QDSP6

802.11a/b/g/n*
BT 3.x + HS
BT 4.0/LE FM Rx/Tx*
28nm
that is our soc.
what i need are the following answers.
---How many gpus do we have so i can set the number of gpus in the kernel? The current value is limited at 16.
---Specs on the display. (factory specs)
---Does the s4 support multi-core scheduler's? (awesome if it did)
---Also I need someone to find the various address lines in menuconfig for all variants including the n4. We might be able to make a universal kernel using that information.
---Are we using the first or second dsp6 version.
These questions directly effect the kernel
What addresses do you want? We all including mako use the same kernel address, Ramdisk varies, modem I don't remember on the top of my head. I have sbl3 and lk at home. But I don't think you care about those (for the kernel).

When you say how many gpus do we have do you mean how many cores does the gpu have

So it is a quad core GPU then.

Yea, especially with a 64 core gpu showing up at CES for the tegra 4.
I bet it is 16, maybe more.

Well 16 seems low, it could be 16 but it would be nice if it was more and the kernel is holding back. That does happen

Well, my pals iPhone 5 smoked this phone in the gpu. I read an article that the new tegra is 64 core and it was a big deal. The tegra 3 was 12 from what I have found but a lot are only 4. I guess it is more the motion in the ocean than the size.
If I find out more I will let you know.
I found this too. http://www.reviewresults.in/reviewresults/post/2012/09/29/Tegra-3-vs-Adreno-320.aspx
It shows the Tegra 3 with 12 which I know is correct.

It's funny how everyone puts these phones against the iphone and I pad without realizing how much of a beast this gpu is. Apple has been forced to use 3 sgs543 gpus each with 4 sub cores on the iphone 5 to get the performance that this one gpu gets with four sub cores. Just like when nvidia says their gpu has 64 cores it's 64 sub cores on one gpu.
Part of the reason that iproducts benchmark so well is due to less products to support and common socs throughout. That way, they can easily optimize the os for each product.

S4 Pro or Snapdragon 600?

So I'm currently very confused. I downloaded the app called CPU-Z to check out the internals of the G Pro and right up top it said that the chipset is the Snapdragon S4 Pro (keep in mind I'm using the AT&T model). I thought this must be an error of the app, seeing as I knew that the G Pro is supposed to have a Snapdragon 600 chip. I then went to both Antutu and Quadrant, and both stated that the phone has a Qualcomm QTC APQ8064 MTP processor, which I looked up and found is the S4 Pro from last year. I've always wondered why my G Pro tends to lag a bit and why benchmarks aren't as high as the One or the S4. Did I get fooled into thinking this device ran the Snapdragon 600?

Thing is, the phone is not listing the "T" at the end of 8064. I'll upload a pic in a minute.

Here's a screenshot... Keep in mind the phone only scores around 17000 in Antutu, indicative of S4 Pro scores.

there"s a lot of confusion about that..... I"ve tried cpu-z and its the same to you....it tell that I"ve the s4 pro...QUALCOMM told that its very the snapdragon 600 who"s inside!! in fact they"re are the same except that the gpu is overclocked at 500mhz instead of 400 for the s4 pro...this is what I have read on the web
---------- Post added at 04:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------
just made an antutu test minutes ago...and had 24655 so it confirm that its really a snapdragon 600
CPU-Z stating a CPU frequency of 387 MHz and AnTuTu stating a CPU frequency of 384 MHz.
I have the AT&T version purchased 3 days ago.
Should I be at 500 MHz?
Also, CPU-Z showing S4 Pro processor.
So what's the deal?

Apparently no one knows. I've tried researching but couldn't find anything so I came to this forum. To me, it makes sense that the phone runs last year's S4 Pro like all the benchmarks say, due to the fact that the phone is quite laggy in daily use and scores very low compared to the Galaxy S4 and HTC One in benchmarks, both of which definitely have Snapdragon 600 processors.

And here's the CPU Z results from my Galaxy S4, clearly stating that the app knows the difference between the S4 Pro and the Snapdragon 600... The Optimus G Pro does NOT have a Snapdragon 600 processor. Bummer.

24k Antutu low?
Maybe still cpu z bug, check comment at Playstore
Many people have no accurate CPU
Ex: One V = Snapdragon S1, it should be Snap S2
Nexus 4 S600, it should be S4 pro
And post your antutu after disable thermal throttling
Cpu z reports incorrect processor on many models. Att site specs clearly state it has the snapdragon 600 8064t. The clock is at 1.7 which matches the recommended clock for the sd 600. I would not be so quick to think LG would lie about the phones components.

Lol, I never said 24k was low. I mentioned that the G Pro was consistently not meeting anything close to that, as it scored more in the 17k range consistently, which is more indicative of the Snapdragon S4.

Could you share your results in benchmarks with us? Because our benches http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085915&page=3 show definitely results on par with HTC1 or just little bit lower than [email protected]
CPU-Z shows APQ8064 on mine GPro too. But according to benchmarks I'm pretty shure I have Snap600, and it's a bug in CPU-Z database, not a faulty phone

No, it just indicates that throttling caps the frequency more aggressively than on HTC1 or SGS4 so to G Pro not to get as hot as them. The same was with Nexus4, it throttled sooner than, say, ASUS Padfone2 and got lower scores in all benchmarks

Not sure where your lag is coming from or why you have it. I suffer from no lag at all. Smoothest phone ive owned or played with so far. Maybe try a system wipe and reset on your unit. Do you have 19000 widgets open?
How about using this?
Never hurts to get a second opinion:
CPU/RAM/DEVICE identifier app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Bfield.CpuIdentifier&hl=en
CPU-Z reports Exynos 4412 as ARM9 but this app is better so...................
do post your results :cyclops:
Maybe this will solve the questions.

Htc one m8? Gta sa? 2 core?

In a video by Chris nacca with cpu core monitor it showed that GTA SA only used 2 cores while 4 was available? What do u think? Why is it so?
Sent from my GT-I9082 using xda app-developers app
because the game is not optimized yet to work on 4 cores thats why its gonna lag on every one of the new devices, meanwhile on galaxy s2 it works fine, and i guess it needs a bit gpu optimization.....

Does Note 3 Neo has 3Ghz processor?

I wanted to buy a new phone. i saw the note 3 neo so i went to GSM ARENA.COM for the specs so i found that they wrote in the processor section:1.3 Quad Core and 1.7 Dual core. I wanted to know. Does it have 3Ghz processor and Hexa core? Or a model has the 1.3 and the other has the 1.7 ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA premium
It has hexa core (6 cores) processor.. Quad corr (4 cores) of 1.3GHz plus Dual core (2 cores) of 1.7GHz so basically it has 6 cores.. 4 of which are clocked at 1.3GHz and 2 of them are clocked at 1.7GHz
Hope this helps

It's actually the big.LITTLE technology developed by ARM where you combine power hungry strong processors with power efficient weak processor and give the device the capability to use all processors at the same time. The two cores of A15 clocked at 1.7 GHz and 4 cores of A7 clocked at 1.3 GHz are for the same purpose.
An example can be when you are say loading a page, A15 is called. After page is loaded and things have rendered, processing is shifted to A7, while scrolling the page ans stuff that require less processing.
