[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Haldi4803:
Introduction:

Hello..... people.... i'd love to say friends but i'm new in the HTC section on XDA.

I've been lurking around in the Sony subforums on XDA for a while and owned 3 Sony devices, the X10i, the Z and the Z2. Sadly my Z2 broke down due to waterdmg last month and i bought a cheap replacement phone. Worked pretty well..... until i saw the HTC 10 exhibited in Taipei. Playing around with it for a while made me want to buy a new phone, after more indepth research about the LG G5 and the SGS7 my patience waiting for news about the Zuk 2 or OnePlus 3 was gone and i just bought a HTC 10 :) Luckily prices are pretty cheap in Taiwan. Worst case i can sell it back home for same value.

So yeah, about Me.... I'm not a developer or anything. My coding skills are horrible, more like scripting to fulfill my needs.

I'm a tech Enthusiast that loves gadgets and everything that's new. I spend money on Kickstarter to often just because i want to see tomorrows technology today. While there is the love for the technology there is also the love for knowledge. Just having something is no fun, knowing how it works is what makes it interesting. Same goes for smartphones. Android is awesome in this case, you can tamper around with so many settings and change so many things.

In the last few years i had so much entertainment with my phones..... looking around the Forums here, there seem to be some competent people around, I'm sure I'm gonna have a great time here :)

About:

This thread is for gathering informations about Governors, their efficiency, their reaction in daily world usage and not in Antutu benchmark. Or at least that was the original intention. I also did some Benchmarks on Overclocked and Undervolted devices to check if you really gain any benefit. Batterylife was a big concern so i've measured absolut maximum possible and absolut minimum screen on time. After the Z2 Quickcharge hack was made (Japanese Z2 has it, European not) i've started doing more specific Charging time Benchmarks, and i dare say you won't find many as specific charging benchmarks around the web.

Well yeah.... in short whatever i take an interest in i'll benchmark it and document it troughly. :)

You can see my old threads for the Xperia Z2 or the Xperia Z to get an idea about what i'm talking.

Benchmarking:

Powerdrain: Find out how much the Phone is using under specific circumstances.

Governor: Find out how a governor acts on a specific benchmark course.

Charging: How fast does the Device charge from 1% to 100%

Benchmarking Apps:

Qualcomm Trepn Profiler: CPU and GPU frequency and load, also Powerdrain

Repetitouch: To create custom Benchmarks that simulate normal everyday usage.

BatteryLog: For Charging Benchmark, Voltage and Battery% per Minute

GameBench: For FPS in games. (Make sure you deactivate Screenshot function for HTC10)

Benchmarking Hardware:

YZX Powermonitor: USB 3.0 QC3.0 4-13V 0-3A USB A Male-> USB A Female Powermonitor that measures Voltage and Current passing trough.

Benchmarking Process and Display of Data:

Can all be read in Post NR 80

GPU Logs in Post NR48

More......

I guess that's it for now.

I'll add more if there is more to add about benchmarking.
