Hi,

It seems with the latest update of Antutu benchmark (the 3.1.2) the scores are decreased a little, at last this is what I've read here and there...

Need some more tests with the exact same rom / kernel / CPU settings, etc... before / after the update (so between the 3.1.1 / 3.1.2 version).

In their changelog nothing appears on a new bench methode or anything else :confused:

I personally have not done yet the update of Antutu nor I have run some benchs...

For me about 21 500 with custom kernel and AOKP PUB build 3, no overclocking so with an older build and the previous version of Antutu.

Or with the newest roms who performed well with the Bionic / Linaro / Krait optimizations there was some changes (some rom's have some new Bionic patches, maybe it's that?). This is the only explanation I can see for lower scores in Antutu.

Some users who reported this drop score coincided with a change rom and / or an AnTuTu update, therefore should isolate the reason: the newest roms with some last changes regarding the Bionic / Linaro optimizations or the AnTuTu update..., it needs investigations :D

Just a thought :)

I say screw benchmarking, or screw my device. My nexus 4 gets higher scores under clocked 100MHz than over clocked 300MHz

[Nexus 4 General] theendfear:
This can explain the strange fact.. I think is a new version of antutu can create this decrease.. I find it abusd that with new patches and optimizations can decrease scores.. I have tested my best score in antutu (over 23.5k with old version 3.1.1) while with new version is decreased more than 800 points.. I dont have a backup of the old antutu apk for test it, but I'm sure is this the problem :)

my impression is that, under the finger the OS is better with new optimization, more smooth and faster
[Nexus 4 General] :
Re,

Sometimes some optimizations, I'm not talking about a specific optimization, can be really beneficial for the general UI but can also decrease some bench scores (it depends of both what kind of optimizations and what kind of benchs). You can have a fast and smooth device with low benchs score like you can have a laggy (or not very smooth) device with higher bench score... It depends of too many factors...

But in our case, yes there is something different if we speak about the same rom / kernel / CPU settings, etc... and the score with the last Antutu compared to the previous version, they may have change something in the bench calculation wich is not in the changelog?

Like I sait what is weird is in the Antutu changelog nothing (as far as I know) can be reliable to lower scores, expect the 3D thing but the decreasing scores observed are about the CPU it seems (CPU Float Point and CPU Integer)?

[Nexus 4 General] theendfear:
Thank you for the 3.1.1 version my friend, I have tested (based on 5 tests for each apk) the same rom with the two different version of apk, and the results is the same... therefore, I have thought bed... the low score is a question of rom.. Conclusion? rom with new patch is more smooth, but benchmark little more low :cool:
[Nexus 4 General] :
Hi,

Last bench with Antutu 3.1.2.

Rom: Vanilla Rootbox 3.8

Kernel: _motley kernel b40

Ondemand governor 304 Mhz / 1.51 Ghz

I/O scheduler: sio

No undervolt

After some tests with Antutu 3.1.1 again (with this rom / kernel I have about the same score 21300 / 21400. Before with AOKP PUB I had about 21600.

AOKP PUP and Vanilla Rootbox are Bionic / Krait optimized, the only difference is AOKP PUB is compiled with Linaro stuff but... Some users noticed some lower scores also so I don't think it's Linaro stuff related...

Maybe the last Bionic / krait optimizations..., it depends if it's the latest or older paches I think.

It's the 3D score which is lower, before about 6800 and now about 6400.

The CPU part is the same, compared to my other benchs even a little better.

In any case all is fast and smooth! :)

I have benchmarked three different Nexus 4s and consistently get the same result:

Rev11 Fast bin > Rev11 Nominal > Rev10 Faster

Can anyone explain the discrepancies between the devices?
[Nexus 4 General] simms22:
every device is different. i had a faster binned device for one day(took it back and got it echanged), my nominal binned device(both rev11) benches much higher thsn the faster binned. anyways, i dont think how its binned is a difference for benchmarks. even if the devices are made at the same factory, on the same day, they will still show their individuality.

Because of course any of us know exactly what will be in the Sammy S4 and exactly what benchmark scores will be? :rolleyes:

Oh, and flaming is against the forum rules, you can indicate your dissatisfaction with somebody without resorting to calling them an idiot. Play nice.

Aside from that, if it is an S600, I can't see why it would score 32k in AnTuTu, we already know what S600 scores on AnTuTu when paired with a FHD screen from the HTC One & LGOG Pro.
[Nexus 4 General] eiriklf:
Antutu scores are still quite software dependant, but I would say 32K sounds unlikely. The S600 will be nowhere near as powerful as the exynos 5 octa, as one can clearly see by comparing the tegra 4(should perform similarly to exynos octa) and the HTC One scores.

Also I just read about the note 3 being scheduled for release in the later half of 2013, and that's probably where the exynos octa is headed. Everything fits, the release will be a few months after the new tegra is released, as usual, and the choice of a 544MP3 GPU (at higher clock rates than apple uses), suggests a really high end phone rather than a tablet.

[Nexus 4 General] Dark Fable:
How did you people get such a high score ? :( I cant get beyond 16k no matter what ROM or kernel I use. Went back to stock. - .- Waiting for Antutu to be optimized for 4.2.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Hi,

I think Antutu is optimized for new devices / new Android version since a while (unlike Quadrant or Linpack for example).

Maybe you have wrong CPU settings (freq, governor), thermal throttling, etc...?

Wich rom / kernel have you tried?

Because with a rom with Bionic / Linaro / Krait optimizations (even with the stock kernel) you will get about 21 000 + in Antutu (21 800 with ParanoidAndroid rom and stock kernel for example)...

Look in the dev section for the rom with optimizations (check the features).

I don't think Antutu is the problem... I've tried custom rom / stock kernel - stock rom / custom kernel and all the time with the stock CPU freq (so no overclocking) I've never been below about 19 600...

:)
[Nexus 4 General] Dark Fable:
Can you test with stock ROM and stock kernel and tell me the results ? :) I dont want to go on flashing krait optimised ROM's, cause I did before, even CM 10.1.

What custom ROM do you suggest as the same as stock or closest but with full performance optimisations ? And also the corresponding kernel ? I dont like customisations in the ROM much, I like stock. Just could do with a faster stock.
[Nexus 4 General] drakenabarion:
On stock cm10.1 I was getting about 21k in antutu. I am trying out Franco kernel right now for some colour calibration, and I get about 20k. I did not do anything special with kernel, no overclock or anything.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Re,

You want a rom with "full performance optimizations" but without all the Bionic / Krait optimizations :eek: + you want higher score in benchs :eek: not possible :D

Why not a rom with Bionic / Krait / Linaro optimizations ?

Try this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2028025, kernel there is a lot, try Trinity kernel or _motley kernel

Try and test...

For stock rom / kernel if I remember right I had about 19 000, no I will not reflash stock kernel / rom just to run Antutu... :eek::D

:)
[Nexus 4 General] meangreenie:
I think jarjar created a stock rom with just the optimisations.
[Nexus 4 General] Dark Fable:
I meant, with Krait optimizations and not any visual customizations. xD Thanks, will try this. :D

Is this ROM just like stock ? Visual wise ?

And why did I get a lower score than my friend's One X ? :( Doesnt our Nexus 4 have a better hardware ?
[Nexus 4 General] :
Re,

Ah ok lol, for stock rom, like meangreenie said try this one:

[ROM][JDQ39] Bionic AOSP/ Stock ROM (2-28-2013) but with less performance optimizations I think but visually stock.

The one I've posted is black themed with 2 or 3 features, almost stock, runs great :D

Lower score than the One X :confused:, not in my case... Score in benchs can be random, it depends on too many factors (rom, kernel, CPU settings, temperature, etc...). If you run 3 / 4 benchs after browsing the net or playing a game without let your phone cool down...

Sorry to kind of spam my question across different boards but how do I disable VSync and Triple buffering? I really wanna make those benchmarks burn...

Also, I find that enabling "Force GPU rendering" and "Disable HW overlays" lower the fps in benchmarks. Has anyone else noticed this?

[Nexus 4 General] simms22:
Force GPU rendering raises quadrant 2D scores 4-5 times. i havent ever seen it hurt scores. disable hardware overlays i dont use. vsync/triple buffering, i have no idea. but why do you need to see the benchmarks burn if you know that its not real?

Have you tried letting it sit for a while? Did you have the dreaded Red Notification Light of Death? If you did, I would recommend letting it sit on the charger for a while. Might have two phones soon :P

As for the rattling noise, I'm almost positive that that is caused by the camera focusing elements. Almost all camera phones do it. Our Nexus' rattling is just louder than most :P

It will probably fire up with a charge...... maybe....... but seriously, the build quality seemed really avaerage from the start so I wasn't surprised..

Anyway, if I do fix it, i'll set it back to stock and sell it but keep the new one. Hopefully the "clicking back glass bit" will not be present on the new one :confused:

i dont use a lockscreen at all, but when i tried with a lockscreen there was no lag(could be because i use all four cores enabled all the time). but you should raise your minimum cpu speed, thats what a few people have mentioned as a solution. via a terminal emulator you can enable all four cores..

su(press enter)

echo 4 > /sys/module/auto_hotplug/parameters/min_online_cpus(press enter)

4 is for four cores. you can enable a minimum of how many cpus you want online(1 is default, but you can use 2, 3, or 4). to go back to how it was before, you can reboot or run that script again with a 1 instead of a 4)

If your using a 3rd party launcher try this...

Delete the default setting for the launcher you are using, press 'home' and choose the standard launcher and make it default (always)

Now on the standard launcher delete all widgets that are running and change the wallpaper to a static one... check the wallpaper has applied in the lock screen too.

Reboot your device and let it settle for a minute or so, then run your preferred launcher..hopefully your lock screen lag will be gone.
