Remove 60FPS Limit?

Is there any possibility on removing the 60FPS limit that is on our devices? I know our devices can do more than 60FPS!

Im sure there is a way, it was done on the EVO 4g.

What would be the point since you can't see a difference?

Are you sure that SAMOLED+ has a 60hz refresh rate? Because if not, we might be able to. 75hz isn't all that uncommon.
Also: Even if you can't see it, more often then not you can feel it.

I used to be a WoW geek back in the day, and I'm here to tell you, you can definitely see a difference between 60fps and 75fps...

Is there really a limit? I get over 60fps during parts of quadrant

Yes there is a limit. On Quadrant you will notice it never gets over 62, even though the limit is 60 there is some play but we should have well over 60.

pretty sure I've seen over 62 but I could be wrong,
goes to overclock and run more quadrant

The only problem is I am not sure if its limited in the CPU or GPU so overclocking may not help much.

As I stated the overclock will only boost CPU section of Quadrant therefore the FPS never goes over 60 FPS as its an illusion of when its switching from 60 to 50. I ran multiple tests and OC only boosted CPU. Boosting FPS would improve 3d scores.

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:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
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.

Wth 6000-8000 quadrant

Ok so I know quadrant isn't everything but please tell me why I have a stock att ogp with the lag of an optimus t? Did a factory reset and still the same thing. I let go of my HTC one for this device...I love it but what gives? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

When I first got my OGP I was getting 7-8000 on quadrant, but I certainly wasn't experiencing any OS lag. So if you happen to be from stock, there may be something especially wrong with your phone or there is something causing it issues. I originally had a corrupted SD Card on mine that caused some terrible lag issues for the day I did not know it was corrupted. Currently I nail 12,000s on my quadrant scores. I run the April factory OS without value pack, as the value pack seemed to cause some framerate slowdown in games and a lower quadrant score for me. My OS is de-bloated, and thermal mitigation is off (you can find this setting in your hidden menu). It helps to run Quadrant with a 60% brightness or lower starting the benchmark with a cold phone.

I have both the htc one and the OGP and my One scores a 2450 on geek bench 2 while my OGP hits 3000~. Granted my OGP is rooted and I use the performance governors but still they have identical SoC.
Do you have quad core optimizer on by chance? Also do you run this on a clean boot?

Yeah it's on but what I did was flash the telcel firmware and everything was just fine. It was like night and day! No stuttering or lag of any kind!

I'm on E988 stock rom and got 12,000 in quadrant. Just rooted. Nothing modified.

It's crazy though. Whenever I open quadrant, and look at system info it says my cpu speed max is 1728 but it runs at 1132 until I enable the thermal mitigation and it will read 1728. I'm on the telcel firmware and I can't find the High temperature property in the dial pad menu.

When I was stock, I ran an 11,5XX on quadrant. When I rooted and ran the stock ROM that's debloated and optimized I broke 12,000.
On my last two AOSP ROMs the phone feels so much lighter(os) but I only score down around d 8,000

CPU speed for Snapdragon 808 1.44GHz?

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.

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.

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.
