To celebrate my country's bday, I'm going to share some of my best benching tips (no "tricks" just my observations)

1. Make sure that your Kernel control app has a boot delay of at least 20 seconds. (Mine is at 30 seconds, remember-patience is a vitrue!!)

2. Completely dim your screen, put your phone into airplane mode, disable any motion gestures.

3. Turn phone off for 5 min.

4. Boot your phone, but don't touch it, just let the lockscreen time out, wait 2 minutes, unlock the phone and let it sit for another minute.

5. Do not flip screens or pull the notification bar (we want to NOT trigger any background processes, so turn off any motion gestures- because they are using the CPU while monitoring your sensors and be sure to leave your default homescreen free of widgets).

6. Open Antutu, wait about 30 sec..

7. Click Test Again then uncheck Optimize Memory (your ROM should already have optimized memory and I assure you thay Antutu doesn't know your device better than the OEM or Custom ROM devs) Now, wait about a minute and a half..

8. Click TEST then don't touch/move your phone until it's done..

Notes:

Make sure that you only ever change one parameter at a time and be sure to run a CPU Monitor when you do, to see the affects of each change..

Reboot inbetween every bench and turn your screen brightness to MIN before you reboot to bench..

Also, I recommend to try running a CPU Monitor once or twice while you run a bench in antutu so you can get an idea of how long it takes for antutu's CPU use to chill out, (same can be done after boot to find out what your device likes, since I've never had any samsung bloat- as I rooted and flashed custom ROMS and Kernels the first day I got my S5- I literally have no experience with Stock)..

Also, running a CPU Monitor when you are getting low benches will help you see if it's being thermal throttled during a bench (throttling has caused me to score as low as 32K) and it will give you the best idea of what may be going wrong and where.

I actually know very little about Kernels, I am just patient, never give up and trial and error sweetspots until I get what I want..

Extra Note: sweetspots vary from each individual device, so ya just gotta keep at it!!

Thank you for sharing n01z :)

Oh my God 42K :eek:
[Galaxy S 5 General] n01z:
My goal is to break 44K.. Combining my catagory top scores would do it.. That's easier said than done, however- I'm confident that I could take the #1 spot anytime (with my latest speed hacks/tweaks/mods), I'm just taking a benching break to let my device get used to the settings and I'm still waiting on some people to catch up.. A silver medal is satisfactory, for now.. There's just the Canada in me that won't stop without a Gold.. Now, keep in mind, the benchmark game is a marathon comprised of many sprints. When people ask me what my favourite video game is, I say, "Antutu"..

Got a list of tweaks yet to be tested..

I CAN do better.

Note: He may just be trying to re-bench higher or did something to slow his device.. Either way, I still see No.1 beside my name.. and either way, I can still do better!!
[Galaxy S 5 General] Luba25:
Good luck but ,again please be careful:) , we have such a great phone
[Galaxy S 5 General] n01z:
Yes, I agree.. That's part of the reason that I'm on a benchmark break, I want my CPU to get worn in a bit, or rather- let it get used to the overclock.. If you push your device too far, the results are unpredictable and could be disasterous.. I've been able to avoid any CPU overheat crashes for a while now (had 3 or 4 when I started with my new kernel) so, it should be okay..

You make a good point, this device runs everything excellently, stock out-of-the-box.. It's not worth risking it just to get a ranking.. But for curiousity and experiment's sake, I can't help myself..

I know this is completely off-topic, but it has been on the Alliance ROM that I've hit my high scores (so, slightly relevant??) I mean, I used to be a Cyanogenmod junkie, but now I probably won't be going back..

44K is mine, called it, stamped it, no erasies.. Beat me to it if you can!!

A G900H now has 2nd Place.. Not too worried, though, as the octa-core S5 makes up for the lower Ghz by posting a super strong multitasking score, but even with an overclock, they'll be hard pressed to break 44K.

it shows our score better than htc m 8then why still s 5 no matter what the score is its rank is 4 why it is not on rank 1
[Galaxy S 5 General] 7tOny4:
Im pretty sure that is just how they release the app those bar graphs don't actually go up they are just stock scores you can check real scores in rankings.here is another one I scored the other day.
[Galaxy S 5 General] sharingan:
hmm i understand

but what ever they say our s 5 is better than htc m 8 as htc has used the cheating trrick to boos scores which samsung did and stopped long ago with s 4
[Galaxy S 5 General] combatuser:
How did all of you managed to get scores of up to 45k?? I'm on ANG9 Firmware with stock kernel, ANG8 Modem, debloated everything and only scored 36117!!
[Galaxy S 5 General] Luba25:
Why so low, I remember my first score is was almost 37,000 .Forget about does numbers like 40 or 45 to have that you must know what you are doing, the average score is between 36,500 to 38 or maybe 39,000
[Galaxy S 5 General] 13WetDog13:
Am I missing something here?

From what I see on the global rankings the top score has been 43,076 for several weeks,

yet it updates my own score in real time.

Could this be caused by people having different versions of Antutu? I currently have version 4.5.3

Additionally the bar gragh in 7tOny4's screen shot clearly shows the One M8T at about 42,000, while mine shows it at 35,0000.

Can anyone clear this up for me?

[Galaxy S 5 General] combatuser:
I am not sure why my score is that low... When I'm on stock unrooted ANE2 firmware, highest i can go is 33k++. Now I'm on XtreStoLite v1.3.3 and highest score i can go is 36.1k, with stock kernel. Using a international G900F version of the SGS5... May I know what app do you use to overclock your CPU? TricksterMOD app somehow was not friendly with me :( Everytime, when i set Min Freq to 300MHz and apply, the value will jump back to the same value as the Max Freq which makes me fear about the battery drain...This happens to KTweaker too when I am using Ktoonz Kernel. If i did not remember wrongly, I scored only 31k after configuring the settings on KTweaker!

P.S. I also tried Phoenix Rom before, scored 35.6k I think. Never hit a 37k score before :(
[Galaxy S 5 General] 7tOny4:
I use ktweaker app dont know why your setting dont stick maybe try clearing the apps data in application manager,have you tryed using profiles in the ktweaker app there is quite a few to try.also when I install phoenix Rom I don't install any of the system tweaks in aroma installer they may conflict with the kernel .
[Galaxy S 5 General] combatuser:
May be the tweaks i chosen.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Ave666:
Yeah I also faced the same problem with Phoenix kernel, but after flash ktkernel it work
[Galaxy S 5 General] combatuser:
May I also ask if you set Governor as "Performance" and I/O scheduler as "VR" and set Min Freq and Max Freq to the highest?

OFF Topic: For Ktoonsez kernel, which Governor is the most friendliest for the battery?
[Galaxy S 5 General] 7tOny4:
I use ktoonservativeq governor my scheduler I use row set at 1024 ,CPU 300 min and 2764 max.my gpu min 200 max 657 governor is performance for benchmarks but normally use kt-simple.you can also try a profile called ktoonsified mod in profile shop it's pretty good.
[Galaxy S 5 General] combatuser:
Thanks for that.

Edit: May I clarify that those settings won't damage the device? Thanks once again!

Edit 2: My Min Freq of 300 MHz kept getting override and is set to 1190400 Hz. I can't seem to disable MP-Decision too. Also, there's only untitled profile for my gorvenor profile ._. And I can't enable Frequency lock too!! omg...
[Galaxy S 5 General] 7tOny4:
I can't really tell you that, but I've been running this for awhile now and not a problem. My phone doesn't get hot when over clocked .
[Galaxy S 5 General] combatuser:
Okay, I uninstalled TricksterMOD and used KTweaker to set the same value as yours. Hope the settings sticks.

Edit 1: Although the Min Freq is set at 300 MHz, the cpu only go as low as 1190MHz. After I set the same settings as yours, my phone only scored 36464. Too bad i guess...

I installed cyanogenmod 11 on my kindle fire hd 8.9 and everything was working fine. However, lately I'm getting the message:

"insufficient storage available"

when I try and update some apps. The thing is that it doesn't happen with all apps. It seems to happen with Chrome, Titanium Backup, EDS Lite, and Adobe Reader. I have tried:

* installing the latest rom (4-28 jen nightly CM) and latest google apps

* clearing cache/davalik

* 'fix permissions' with rom manager

* uninstalling and reinstalling -- now I can't install the app

* tried installing 'lucky patcher', there was no 'remove fixes and backups' as described in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1717897

I couldn't bring up any info on this error (except the above). Everyone that used to get this error was from old versions and had an external sd card. But with the kindle fire HD all the memory is internal. Any suggestions?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LinearEquation:
Try going into ES File Explorer > device > data > open app-lib folder and now remove/delete the apps giving you trouble. Now re-download from the Play Store. See if that helps.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacksmind:
Thanks for your reply LinearEquation. I only had two folders. One for Titanium backup, and another nested data folder (inside data) for an app 'ChefTap'. I deleted both folders for the apps, but I still cant update chrome.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LinearEquation:
You went to home then data. You need to tap device then data then app-lib. Every app installed will have a file in there. Be careful what you just go deleting. Make sure to run another Titanium Backup.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacksmind:
So I think the problem was that I wasn't in 'root view mode' (whatever it's called in the settings) of EStrongs. I logged into adb shell and found the folder you were referring to and deleted the folders after uninstalling and now they install fine.

Thanks so much for your help!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mimarsinan:
Hello,

I've downloaded XDA Manipulator, and studied the VB source code. Unfortunately, I do not have a USB to serial cable, so I cannot run the program.

However, I tried using the EXEs that ship with aWizard to read the same addresses that XDA Manipulator seems to use, in an attempt to get to the same data. Alas, the ROM read tools return a NULL error - the ROM addresses are somehow out of range?

I'm trying to figure out how XDA Manipulator would read the ROM of my device and obtain my IMEI, I should be able to do that with the aWizard ROM reading tools, right?

Or would the XDA Manipulator not even work with my device - HTC Wizard - in the first place? (Phone is fully SIM and CID unlocked)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] vijay555:
If you're just trying to read the IMEI, there are other ways to do this using normal API calls. Check out PocketPCDN.

Actually, I'm trying to read the IMEI from ROM, so I can first verify I have the right section of ROM, and the next step will be writing back to that area of the ROM. No luck so far though...

[T-Mobile LG G2] needabottle:
I don't know the answer but my question would be why would you want to do that? I'm on T-Mobile and except for this T-Mobile G2 I have always used an unlocked AT&T phone on T-Mobile. I get 4G LTE and certainly in the case of the G2, it is rootable whereas the KitKat T-Mobile G2 cannot be rooted (easily) and there is no recovery. I think you would be losing more than you gain by going to the T-Mobile rom if it is possible. Having said all that I'd certainly be interested to see how you get on if you can do it.
