Slow Darky's 9 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it normal to get only 905 points from quadrant with darky's9 and speedmod? Before updating from darky's 8 i did get 1245points.

Quadrant is rubbish, people can make themselves get quadrant scores of 3000 + so dont rely on that.. if your phone responds quick and it feels quick in your hand, thats all that matters.

Exactly, I had a 2000+ score with my old JPO+lagfix, now, i'm at ~1000 with my custom ROM, but the phone is so smoother, and it run without lagfix!

I had the same issue after the first 2 times booting up, but it solved itself after 2 more boots and now i am getting 1600 again.

Quadrant scores are totally irrelevant. Insanity ROM has over 2000 but I have found Darky's is the smoothest out of them all IMO

if your phone is fast and responsive why care about quadrant?

it's nice and smooth, no problem i were just worried about if i did something wrong.

Quadrant is rubbish, is not relevant, if you make 2 or 3 tests consecutive there will be different results, so... if you're like how is your phone moving that means you obtain the best results.

I still don't understand why people stick to their quadrant scores. Of course it is fun, but if you can do stuff with your phone and no annoyance like lag or whatsoever. Who cares whether quadrant score is 100 or 200?>

Is it weird to have 1774 at Quadrant?

Hello all,
I'm quite shocked when testing quadrant and I got 1774 score. Usually I only got around 1400-1500.
Then I tried that time, I had around 1400 for the first time, and I repeat the test directly and get 1774 score.
I repeat the method the next day and get also a huge difference between the first try and the second try.
anyone can explain this??
I'm running CM6 RC2
1113MHz monks kernel
pretty nice score, possibly some other proceses running in the background, i got a 1200+ score then killed a bunch of stuff running and then got a 1500 score
I usually hit 1700-ish.

try again directly after you got 1500 score. I got 1700 for the second try
samsung galaxy s
I did the benchmark before applying the voodoo lagfix on my SGS, i was the third on the list just after moto droid x, after the lagfix and reboot, i'm now 1469 and on top of all the device, the original SGS score is way below...
the point is, how this thing work ? is this reliable ? i mean what's the point of the app finally ?
I honestly think that the score doesn't matter. Isn't the most important thing most aim for is speed and stability? If your phone feels fast then you shouldn't care for the score.

1774marks? no it's not strange.
Here is a screenshot i have made about month ago on original-chinese-odexed Miui [email protected] without any hacks, it was fast as lighting (Or diarrhea)
Miui12.31 not so fast

[Q] darkys rom not so fast :(

I had Phoenix rom, decided to go to darkys because it looked better to me. I flashed Darkys, and it looked good and everything, but i entered Quadrant Standard and im getting score of lees than 720, when with phoenix i got 1000 or more, the graphic says that i have less score than a Galaxy S, what went wrong, is this ok, should i not bother myself with this or what?

Make sure you flash a good kernel.. SpeedMod K12M or Firebird2..
And check quadrant scores.. Quadrant scores don't mean anything.. DG officially hates it!
I have not tried darkeys but, I would reboot try again. No 2.2.1 rom should be that low.
Quadrants do not really mean anything though

While quadrant is not a completely accurate test it can be a useful test to see how the phone performs. A score of 720 probably indicates that something did not take. It's been a while since I have been on Darky's rom but with Cezar's rom and no lagfix I get 1100 quadrant scores which is pretty normal for a 2.2.1 rom without lagfix. Enabling lagfix could bump that to 1300 to 1500 range.
I have gotten 1700 to 1900 scores with overclocking and lagfix before but here's the problem with basing everything off your test score. On 2.2.1 with no lagfix I can't tell a difference in how the phone operates compared to overclocked kernels with lagfix. I can play the same games and watch the same videos and really can't tell a difference. Darky's is a 2.2.1 rom so you should be seeing pretty much the same performance.
Are you noticing any lag? Run the test again to see if the score bumps up?
this will sound stupid, he but i found the problem, with set cpu, i dont know why, but the processor was clocked at 400 mhz, FML!

Hehe nice
As far as Quadrant is concerned, yes in normal cases the quadrant score is pretty meaningless but Im surprised people say that even in this thread. Its meaningless to wonder about getting 1500 instead of 1600, but with scores of 700 clearly something is wrong, and thats exactly what Quadrant *is* useful for, diagnosing performance issues!
Good to see you found the problem already

Quadrant doesn't tell the whole story, but I'm running darkys 7.8 and I've got a Quadrant score of 1480+. I was a Cognition junkie until I flashed darkys - I couldn't be more pleased.

All the 2.2.1-based ROMs are pretty much equally fast.. mostly cause theyre all very close to being stock, the only performance-change is from using a recompiled kernel.
Voodoo seems to be a bit faster than speedmod. 1620 here on DocROM with advanced voodoo, no overclock.

[Q] Linpack for android..am i lacking?

Ok so i flash theses beautiful roms and now ive tried some testing and currently on my captivate i ran the "linpack for andoid" app and it states:
MFLOPS: 13.982
time: 6.0
Norm Res:5.68
Precision: Inaccurate result
ok so i looked at the top 10 section ounder my phone and their MFLOPS is between 20-50 MFLOPS...So do i need some tweaking?..I mean the phone is good , Rom is awesome...any thoughts?
Captivate 1007
Phoenix 5.2 (2.2.1 JS5)
Speedmod i897 500hz k13c
UGJK4
Lagfix enabled
(r) Tweaks enabled
I wouldn't worry about it. First, your test said inaccurate results, so try running it a few times, though you probably won't get much more out of it. Secondly, most people believe these benchmarks are a load of BS, and I would trends to agree. If the ROM feels snappier and works smoother than stock for you, there really isn't any use in the benchmark scores. I'm running Serendipity 5.11 with the same kernel as you, and I find my scores are in the low 14's- which, as is for you, seems slow compared to the online results. However, my phone supposedly blows the other results out of the water in the Quadrant Standard benchmark, regularly achieving scores over 1500, and I imagine yours would perform similarly, so no, I wouldn't worry at all.
Overall, most of the roms on here achieve faster performance along with better battery life compared to a stock cappy. I suggest trying out as many roms as possible to find the one that fits you best, as everybody has different tastes, and each rom behaves differently for everybody.
Personally, I think Serendipity is something you should try, as it looks friggen sweet as is, and even better IMO with some tweaks. I changed the battery indicator to the android dude, the font to Armani, and use launcher pro over the base rom. Altogether, my phone is super slick and snappy. Oh yeah, it also accesses HSPA networks, so downloads are way quicker than stock (pretty sure your current rom does too).

that's about right, repeated tests should get you 14+. it does say inacurate so i dont think you have a problem, just a process running somewhere. the hummingbird lacks a bit in this area and snapdragons excel only in this area. i know it is weird that the nexus one and droid incredible smoke this phone in linpack but it is hardly a thorough benchmark. run quadrant on CM7 when it comes out and see what the hardware is really doing without the samsung influence. despite the low mflops you will see good scores across the board.
Thanks alot for the input everyone...jus curious how gen-pop was adding up... but who cares about the numbers i suppose when my phone is soo [email protected]## cool hahha

Just for the record, I'm on stock Froyo, With no SpeedMod, but with voodoo lagfix and I got better benchmark, linpack and quadrant scores than I did with a custom rom and Speedmod kernel before. Add to that the stability of a native ROM and kernel, and I think you know what I am saying here...

[Q] Best antutu scores on roms?

Hi, i went down quite a lot of pages and did not find any antutu score tests on galaxy s.
I was just wondering whats the best ones in what rom's and what kernels. I tried to google i9000 antutu best scores but seems there was not really that many hits and best scores i found was like 4k what sound quite a lot but not sure how legit those are when there was no pics.
I mean my friend got a galaxy note and it get a bit over 7k point and then reading more the damn old sucker galaxy s2 best with pic proof is like 8k.
Was just wondering how my fine old faithful galaxy s can do. I got a decent gingerbread rom and i get a bit over 3k without OC. Can't remember how much more i got with ICS OC'd to 1,4ghz. it was over 3k too tough but not remembering how much above.
Would be nice if you can post your roms that score over 3k and what roms + kernels you are using and how much OC you done. I mean the i9000 is not the fastest phone by far at this point but would be intressed to see if people got how high antutu scores.
Nowadays benchmark doesnt mean anything. There's many ways to cheat, and even if those score were honest it doesn't matter much. What does matter is real life performance
Oh antutu score can be fixed too these days? I mean i now the quadrant score has been always a bit question mark and i heard lots of cheating in it. Well i was just wondering the honest score. I'm trying to find a decent fast rom and the better score in benchmarks the less processor power it uses on stuff and that means a bit better battery life too.. well not always.
I'm just trying to get all out of my sgs before sgs3 comes out.. i must say i just love t his phone.. when i had a fast rom where it worked stable at 1.4ghz it was as fast as iphone 4s in same internet pages on stock browser.
But if people could post the LEGIT non cheated scores it would be better than the cheating ones lol

+1. SGS with Froyo and EXT2 lagfix got a much higher score in Quadrant, but with ICS the experience is much better.
So the real question is what ROMs have given the best real life performance for you?
For me, it's 3827( on Antutu ) ;D with TiramiSlim RC2.0

Ultimately - I think not?
If the phone feels quick, and it runs your programes then i would not worry about benchmarking... But if it feels slow and sluggish, then i would try out one of the many benchmarking programes out there, and see if there truely is a problem...
I have tryed it a cauple of times and found that my note ran perfectly well, and that it was I whos was mistaken..

They are good tools to tweak your phone as long as you know what look for but of course one single benchmsrk cannot tell the whole story so I use a combination of benchmarks and applications that i am familiar with when evaluating rom/kernels or overclocking settings.

It surely does make no difference if you score high or low. What matters is that you should be satisfied with ur phones performance.

what i really noticed is that the memory and I/O scores are kernel specific and the more scores you have the more fast the operations on ur phone becomes..
i personaly have achieved highest scores of I/O using notecore /hydracore
This one is really not important. Haha.
Leave this app eversince I bought my notes.
As long as smooth, good battery life, what else u need?
U win nothing even if ur benchmark higher from others.
