CM7 Quadr - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hello,
I've had the phone rooted and the new cm7 (bad***), it all runs great I just wonder how some people are getting 5k Quad score while I am at the same 3.2 as it was on stock. I do have the same Kernel and everything when rooting and flashing went so smooth. Is there something I am missing.......
Thanks in advance.

You can overclock it to 1.6 ghz in the CM settings.

I did, than quadrant freezes while I'm running it. As in when I click submit score, it automatically goes back to the 1st 2d test and than force closes.
"sorry I left that out" :/

call me ignorant but do people STILL think that quadrant scores mean soemthing? why are people still comparing them???

Some people just want to stroke their epeen on the net.
And as to overclocking - not everyone will be able to overclock. There's a reason the device is only sold as 1.2 GHz - that's all it was tested to. Some might hit 1.4, some might hit 1.6, some might be right at the edge and only be able to do 1.2.

its not the quadrant score that matters. Its the idea of why it is different. All the devices have the same cpu have the same kernel and are rooted/flashed as stated in the forum (the same way). So why is mine doing so when clocked and running. I don't care what the score is. even 1200 score is enough for a phone. I didn't want to stroke anything. Its the matter of where the problem/case/scenario is coming from. As in, will it cause other problems and is it a problem at all. having had 5 android rooted/flashed devices I've never experienced it........... Why do people have to be ignorant and troll a forum is an issue I cant understand?

if you're asking why your quad score differs from other ppl's phone with the same setup, then you need to research more.
Not all phones are built the same. Just because they all have the same hardware and software, doesnt mean they'll all operate the same.

[DISCUSSION] 1.6Ghz achieved and benched on Vibrant (supposedly)

Here
After last weeks DX farce with 2Ghz and 3Ghz Im cautious however these guys seem to have the benchies to back it up. We've long heard the potential for the hummingbird was 1.6. Only sad part is they say no Fascinate development till they get one. Removing the 56fps cap is nice too
I've never heard of these guys before? Legit? Renowned? Anyone know.
I would say all is BS until proven other wise. In my opinion the hardware would burn up at those speeds.

Agreed. 1.6 has long been discussed as an achieveable speed. Dirrk was tinkering with it weeks ago. Its voltage requirement obviously is high and near the threshold point given the non-active cooling for the cpu. But I would not be surprised this could be achieved. I mean shoot we have 1.25Ghz on less than stock voltage already.
Benchmarks in one hand, stability in the other. When I see a posted kernel with good reviews for a week or so, I'll do more than raise an eyebrow. lol.
It's on the OCLF kernel, which if I remember, is well known for posting high quadrant scores without giving any real performance benefit.
Also, benchmark overclock's in the desktop world are always just for demonstration, not an application. Ever seen that 7GHz overclock benchmark they did on a Pentium 4?
This is no BS. The devs working on this are reputable and put out some of the best Vibrant ROMs out there. They're stable at 1.6ghz and are talking about pushing it to 1.8/2.0.

This doesn't suprise me. I could push my Droid to 1.32ghz. That's well over a 100% overclock. Achieving a 60% overclock shouldn't be too hard, especially on newer and much better hardware.
I find it tough to believe that most phones will be stable at a 60% overclock. Granted, Im only speaking from my experience with desktop CPUs... What type of software do people run to test stability?

What has been your experience with desktop cpu's. I cannot remember the last desktop cpu I have which at least 50% so I dont find 60% outrageously unreasonable. Active cooling obviously makes a difference.
With the battery life Im seeing on Dirrks UV kernels and even what I got on stock voltages pre-OC I would feel confident I could still get a full day off a 1.4-1.5Ghz hummingbird even if the voltage had to be raised to 1400mv.
I'm having trouble with stability with the 1.2 OC kernals...
So I checked out the thread in the vibrant section. This is def for real! Looks awesome! I had trouble with dirrks lv 1200. But every other kernel has ran fine. I'm sure that eventually we'll have everything we can dream on this phone. Good thing its already so great that I don't mind waiting. I hope I don't have to find an excuse to exchange my phone in search of one that can handle more.

@teamwhiskey is a god send. they have pulled the download though,due to flaws in their kernal. they are in the process of re-vamping it and re-testing. it seems while the kernal did improve performance it is unknown how much because it was also manipulating the internal clock speed.
def legit.

Yes this is for real. I personally run it. Heres quadrant I ran last night. This kernel should be ported to all SGS phones. As long as they get a good dev with this phone to help port.
CPU didnt see near the gain I had hoped it would.
ya the CPU is getting destroyed by the N1. And what is with the ridiculous I/O. Did someone port a PCI express array of SSD's on the Vibrant? Maybe they just developed the GOD file system.
I make jokes, but I want the screen of my Fascinate to say 3439 also haha
I am on a mesmerize niw coming from a vibrant. I used this kernel. There was a timing issue. The io scores come from oclf which cheats quadrant. Those guys have released a pretty stable 1.4 oc that is real. I got 68 fps in neocore. Truth be told guys there is no need for oc in my opinion. With froyo the phone plays flash easily. Only application of oc to me is emulation and bragging rights. A good voodoo kernel works wonders honestly.

Your phone might not play nice with that kernel. Try flashing core 1.0 instead and see if that helps.
Yes, not all phones are stable when overclocked. Use the stock kernel and you should be fine.

^^^ this, but I'm sure you knew that since it says so every where.
My phone runs great at 1.2Ghz with JAC's XMOD Voodoo kernel, but locks up constantly with Core, OCed or not. Try swapping kernels, but don't give up on the OC yet.
I'm having the same exact issue, mine will just lock up for no reason sometimes as well. I'm not sure what it is, I kind of feel like it's the rom. I had problems originally with fusion to begin with. Maybe I'm not doing a proper procedure to install it?
Is it because I'm wiping and going straight to fusion? Please anyone else are you having this issue, I'm getting frustrated and feel my phone is slightly useless like this. I HATE stock.
Edit: Setcpu doesn't let me set to 1000 with Core 1.2Ghz, I can only get 1000 if I use Core 1.0Ghz (obviously). Again though, same issue regardless.
Core is still in beta status and not all the bugs have been worked out yet. The issue the OP is having has been mentioned before in the Core thread in the Dev section and on the TeamWhiskey.com forums as well.
OP: To alleviate the freezing issue you're having, flash the 1.0GHz CoreV1 instead of the 1.2GHz CoreV1

[Q] HTC Aria linpack 32.62??

Ok, so I just ran a linpack benchmark on my Aria and got the result of 8.903. I decided to save it since that was the highest I got. I went on the greencomputing website to see the best results for the Aria and the highest one was 32.62 mflops. I wonder if that is even possible on the Aria? If so, how do I get that rom/kernel which gets my that amount of speed. the guy had a dell streak rom and was clocked to 998.4 mHz. here is the link --- http://www.greenecomputing.com/apps/linpack/linpack-by-device/
just scroll down to HTC Aria/Liberty.
btw, I am running CM7 on my Aria.
Why do you want that much speed? 806 is fine. Speeds that high would toast the processor. And the phone would get hot so fast.

I know but I'm just wondering how that guy even got his phone to fully boot up at that processor speed. Also, I am wondering if his phone exploded after that. Really, How is that speed even possible? Also, if you look at other results in that list, you will see that people got it to work on 864 which is impossible for the CM7 kernel. So that really makes you wonder how...

Doesn't really make me wonder... Here's the deal, that guy (or girl) has a hobby. His hobby is seeing how high he can get linpack for android to run. To accomplish this he can go about it one of two ways.
Either he took apart his aria, overclocked the hell out of it, added additional cooling and custom built an optimized kernel for 1 purpose - running linpack for android while unstable. (it's not a phone anymore)
A more logical approach would be to run linpack in an emulator, and spoof linpack into thinking it's running on an aria.
Hope this helps clear up some of the confusion.
He must of got into that girls pants he was trying to impress by having a super overclocked aria

wow..amazing what a dedicated person

are we there yet? ie; 1.3 oc kernal

is fauxs123 oc kernal v2.0 1.3oc
is this the limit of our devices is this the max we can push our cpu with respect for rhe overheat issues and the negitive
affects that follow along with overclocking one would speculate we could oc to atleast 1.5-1.8 or even 2.0
mabe im just hopeing yea i know its not a pc and no we aint dumping liquid nitrogen onto the cpu to cool it down
but dang could we please have more power; put some pimp juice in this thing 1.5oc or 2.0 i know im prolly spining my wheels in the mud here
just thinking out loud i gess
at&t unlocked alienv4 fauxs v2.0-1.3oc

Well if you go to his post about the Kernel he is still having issues getting the second core running the same speed as the 1st when OC is functional. So I would assume once that issue is resolved there Might be fast OC but that also depends on how Hot the CPU winds up at the higher clock speeds and of course the stability.

phone locks up at 1.6?

ive tried every rom/kernal combination and with each i get lock ups when doing intensive cpu work such as a game or benchmark overclocked to 1.6 any ideas? Thanks
Just means your processor was built a little weak. Its only built to run at 1.2ghz so anything above that is pushing it hard... some phones can be oc'd that much, some can't. Just take it down to 1.4. I can't even get mine to 1.4 so he thankful
Sent from my AT&T cellular device.
What voltage do you have it at? Try raising it 25mV at a time stressing you cpu at each step until you're stable. That is if you are determined to run 1.6 and i would not push more than +100mV personally.

I do not think entropy is the one who has issues...
This has been discussed in 10 different threads already and in great detail. If the OP did as much as search he would of have found the answer himself. That is why they call it research
the only question left is...... You mad bro?
Keep all voltages stock, then use voltage congrol and click on 1400 and increment the slider+ 25, then do the same for 1600. This is what i had to do to get my phone stable at 1.6 Some phones may need EXTRA voltage and others need less. It takes some testing to get your particular phone stable at anything over 1.2Ghz. I only did it to see if I saw any gains. Actually for me and my phone I found as far as MY SETUP and testing many different benchmark style apps at 1.4Ghz i got better benchmarks than i did at 1.6Ghz. Now everyones phones will act sligbtly different so your mileage may vary.

At 1.6 ghz... your phone will be discharging your battery ON your charger... I personally wouldn't recommend doing it as it gets the phone really hot, and causes the chip lots of stress due to high heat. Personally if you need more performance (this phones pretty damn fast anyways) go to 1.4ghz.
Most of our phones can be overclocked to 1.4 and some can go to 1.6 but not all. If you change the voltages and it still craps out, then take it down a notch to 1.4 and see how that works for you.

Now now. Since when do we encourage keeping things stock.
My point is - if it were guaranteed to hit 1.6, it would be sold as 1.6.
Being able to hit 1.6 is luck of the draw, pure and simple.
There's a reason:
1) OC is not default on my kernel
2) I held off on providing OC support for a while here, and NEVER released it on Infuse (users weren't mature enough to handle it over there)
3) I have a warning in GIANT RED LETTERS not to complain about OC stability issues on my kernel thread.

This is all true... but the OP was simply asking a question now lets all play nice.
We should have an OC that allows n00bs to melt their cpu.... 2.5ghz ftw
No no no.... We have too many "I tried to load the ICS in the I9100 forums, and I bricked my phone, please help!" threads. we don't need "I OC'ed my phone to 8ghz and melted my cpu" threads too
Tegrak allows you to go past 1.6. I thought these CPU were locked @ 1.6 but i had to up my voltage at 1.7 and i got a small bump in my benches though i probably did run my test enough to confirm the bump. At so.e point, when i get some time ill beat on my CPU some more

I ran my phone at 1.6 for days just to see performance. No UV at all.. battery certainly drained faster, but not while charging. It charged just fine.. and stayed cool even when stressing. Like many have stated, all CPU's are slightly different .. just cause yours melts at 1.6 and wont charge doesn't mean this will happen for anyone trying to run 1.6GHz.
sent from my SGSII... suckas
Try bumpin' up the voltage 1-2 notches.
Just to add to the stats...
I've been able to run @ 1.4 with the same voltage as 1.2, but my phone will freeze once in a while when running apps like camera or navigation. Had to bump the voltage up slightly to get it stable, though I will likely just run 1.2.
I cannot run at 1.6.

Try changing or updating your kernel. Im the OP and had the same problems. with the new siyah kernel at 1.6 even if i try i cant make it lock up or freeze.
Your processor was made from a different silicon wafer than other people's phones and was rated for 1.2ghz.
Since each wafer is different, some processors take voltage better than others as well as speed. It happens.
