CPU speed for Snapdragon 808 1.44GHz? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So today got my replacement new G4. Dowloaded the CPU Z app and it shows my cpu at 1.44. But my benchmarks in antutu are fine.

You got ripped off.

Or are you serious?

Can someone check theirs and see hat it says? I think i know whats going on. The two cores 4 and 5 are the 1.8GHz and 0-3 are the slower cores.

It's hard to catch 4 & 5 doing much of anything, so I launched a huge game that takes some time to load, switched back to CPU-Z, and snapped a quick screenshot. The apps just report the max CPU frequency incorrectly. They probably just need to be updated for the 808.

That's because you aren't doing anything....
Take your thumb and scroll up and down fast and you'll see it go up.

My thumb wasn't fast enough to get 4 & 5 above 1.4 GHz while taking a screenshot. Launching a big app was a lot easier. Obviously 4 & 5 do move some, but the concern was that they were capped at 1.4 GHz since all of the apps show that as the max CPU frequency.

It's the governor and cpu control that does this - it regulates speed for temperature and battery control by changing the value in sys file system, so cpu monitors that read that once and treat it static will always get a false value.

That's a smart answer right there

Here are couple of screenshots showing the 2 high power cores 4&5 at their maximum speed of 1.82GHz. As well as their speed history.
I used System Tuner app from the Play Store. You don't need root to use the app to monitor system usage.

SetCPU profiles?

Hello all... I'm new to Setcpu and have been able figure out how to OC and UV while still keeping everything relatively stable. As of now I'm experimenting with making profiles, I was wondering if someone could post a screen shoot of their profiles and pass on any advice. I am running TNZ Blend 2.6.2 with the Hitman kernel. Here's a screen shot of what I have so far.

The only thing I would comment on is your "screen off" there is no reason for it to be scaling/jumping from 800-1200 "ondemand" while the phone is not being used or the screen is off in general, just have 800 low and high or have 800 as your high and set it to "performance" so that there is no polling being done and it will set itself to the high value which would still be 800 anyway.
You might have a reason for that setting, just trying to save you a little bit more of battery juice.
Definitely bring down that screen off! I have mine set to 200-500 ondemand. I'm sure it'll save you a lot of battery. Also the battery 100% is kinda pointless because that's what the main profile is for. And expect your phone to get extremely hot if you use it while charging since you have it overclocked. I did that same mistake now I keep it at 200-800 to avoid the over heating.

Just a recommendation...you should give tegrak a go. I find it to be much more beneficial than setcpu...
Why scale cpu depending on the battery level? I prefer scaling CPU on my phone by the temperature. 1.6Ghz normal usage and then gradually scale it down if it gets too hot. I bought this phone for its performance, not battery life, which actually is pretty amazing for such powerful device.

be careful with Tegrak, as it doesn't work with some of the non stock kernels, and will freeze your phone for sure..
Pretty good. You don't need the battery>100% profile. Adjust that from the main page.

Yikes! I wasn't aware of that. Guess I'll do a bit more research on that before I fire out recommendations. Note to self...not all devices have the same setup as yours

[Q] HTC reduced cpu frequency in update?

Hello, I heard that HTC reduced the processor frequency in "One X", due to the high temperature of tegra and battery lifetime (In update, maybe 1.29?). Is that true?
Sorry, but my english isn't good.

My AnTuTu score went up so I'm guessing not.

not reduced just doesn't ramp up as often as before
Thank for answers
I didn't know that antutu shows the cpu frequency

Did they change the CPU scaling governor?
I remember talk a little while back about On Demand and Interactive governors and which one was best

antutu only shows what the max speed is and its only 1.5 on a single core, when on 4 cores you can only get 1.2 GHZ and 1.4 GHZ on 2 cores.
look at terga stats at bottom on screens

So reduced frequency it's true? Earlier (after updates) unless Tegra 3 had 1.3ghz on 4 cores ?

No It's always been like this, the update changes how the CPU speeds up and down e.g 50 MHz in idle to max speed, all its done is help the phone use the lowest possible speed to save battery.

CPU Overclocking Efficiency

Recently I've decided to overclock CPU and evaluate efficiency in term of speed by using one of the famous and best FRANCO KERNEL.
So I've captured 1 minute 1080p raw video with stock settings (no mods or hacks to mediaprofile.xml file) and rendered file in Google Movie Studio in 1920x1080 aka 1080p format and High quality.
Consequently, the results were as follows:

}
As you can see the most efficient OC frequency is 1305Mhz. All above are way slower, cause CPU gets hotter and efficiency decreases.
Yes, do admit overall smoothness is by far better in comparison to stock kernel, but as you can see overall efficiency is not a deal breaker.
Maybe try the version with the overclocked gpu. I think this can have a big impact, I mean on the PC most of the work is done by the gpu so I could be that it's similar on our phones

First look and then write... Franco has a 512mhz version because 384 ist his stock

it's said that the difference is so minuscule, the 512mhzoverclock isn't worth battery loss. I'm not talking about relative to Franco, the device's stock gpu frequency is 304. But if you see it that way, to each his own.

Unless the GPU has built-in hardware encoding or decoding for the particular codecs involved, and it's actually being used by the software, it won't play any part in video rendering.
Interesting.You could try the same with Trinity .

Overclocking?

Considering how the S4 Pro in the Nexus 7 is actually just a downclocked version of the Snapdragon 600 I presume there is a decent amount of wiggle room for overclocking. Yes, these are probably the worse chips out of the binning process to have been condemned to live the rest of their lives as S4 Pros, but would hope all of these should easily be able to achieve the 1.7Ghz Snapdragon 600 specs. Maybe even some lucky owners could push theirs to and beyond what we see in the Galaxy S4 at 1.9Ghz.
Now I'm just speculating as my Nexus 7 isn't even here yet (still in shipping). I made this post to make some discussion on the matter. Like people who've already tried messing with clock speeds and voltages on theirs could share their findings here. Talk about what kernels permit what levels of tweaking. Or even GPU overclocking/governor tweaking etc...
So, discuss!
I've tried running it over 2.1 Ghz with no problems at all. I really just wanted to see what a benchmark could get up to. I didn't check the voltages were. I tried running it fairly hard and of seemed to do alright.

What's the score of the benchmark you got? Is it almost the same as S600 devices?
I was able to atget up to 8849 on quadrant. It is consistently above 8000 for me using CyanogenMod and an overclocked kernel at 2052 Mhz CPU and 487 MHz GPU. At 2052mhz it is at 1175mV.
Edit: I got a slightly better score again

It seems the the score of the benchmark are the same with Xperia Z stock with S4 Pro.

Running at 1728mhz for days now, GPU at 487, handles perfectly fine.

Processor speed

Hi Guys
Has anyone checked the frequency the cores run at yet? Mine doesn't seem to go above 1.59 Ghz (checked using Better Battery Stats and CPU X). Antutu score was also low. Something doesn't seem right here.
OK, scratch that. I used the Quallcom Trepn app and that showed the cores firing up to 2.2. Still don't know why Antutu is low (113000)

Hi.
Try enable max CPU in developer options. ( or something like that ).
I did , mine jumped from 113000 to 136000.

I'm having the same issue with my Antitu score. The funny thing is, I get a higher score with performance mode turned off!
Heat Problem.
The phone throttles down.
Put it Into the fridge if you want a higher number.

It would most definitely eat up more battery. It's good for running (relatively useless) benchmarks, but certainly not meant for everyday use.
