Fix performance issue in emulator - LG V30 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys , i need tips in fixing performance issue im lg v30 the cpu performance is throttling quite heavily in stock oreo that emulator performance is dropping and can not run games full speed while s8 with same snapdragom processor run the emulator full speed. Any tips ro improve this? I already get the tutorial to update gpu driver here to v313 The stock gpu driver in oreo is horribel using very old gpu driver
From the look of it the stock kernel max speed is 1900mhz and even that it move fasly up and down throttling heavily,any alternative to stock kernel or info about the stock kernel gorvenor?

I have t-mobile variant and it does run constantly at 1.9ghz on little cores, but BIG cores run varying from 2.1 to 2.4ghz. The only emulator i'm using right now are Retroarch64 and ppsspp it's all running well at 30fps. Some refurbished V30 doesn't have heat pipe inside for better cooling, it may throttle cpu during certain workloads AND actually not all SD835 work similar, some device might better or worse depends on thermal regulation, or android optimization.

lg got the worst score 164k antutu for me compared to normal 200k snapdragon 835 , this phone got high end cpu with midrange performance what a waste

How to know? I got the us998 version but dont know if its ref or not? The problem is on dolphin emulator, the ppsspp does run full speed

how to know what? you can see cpu stats on EX Kernel Manager, maybe kernelauditor as well. It's true that little cluster could only go as far as 1900 not more, but big cluster can go up to 2,45ghz as listed on 835's specs. I don't know, maybe bloated software could have some impact too. have you tried using custom rom? some say it'll improve much in gaming performance. it's worth a shot (few shots i guess, since there are many of them :laugh.

Wantrd to ubl but i need to backup things, will inform later on the thread. Thingkjng to sell the devices for poco or note 8 but i love the features on this devices so much !

[Q] What game booster app are people using

Hi all Ive seen a few people mention game boosting apps and have found a number of paid and free options but am wondering what people here are using (if any) ?
Many thanks

Hi there,
I (probablu) ran into the same problem as you did: whilst playing demanding games (like GTA 3/Vicy City) the device stutters and is having difficulty producing a smooth framerate. On an HTC Sense rom whilst playing GTA:VC I had like 13 FPS @ low settings (18% draw distance, 70% screen resolution, medium GFX settings and dynamic shadows OFF) and it was just awful. Then I decided to put CM10 on my device. In the settings menu there is an option called 'Performance' and you can change the profile there. The default profile is 'ondemand' but I changed it to 'performance' to let the quad-cores work at full capacity. Now, all of a sudden, I can run GTA:VC on the highest settings possible at a steady 30+ FPS.
If tl;dr: don't bother with 'game boosters', they will just terminate proccesses running in the background. Instead flash your device with a nice ROM: CM10. It has A) better battery life because there are no unnecessary processes running in the background and B) overall better performance due to the fact there is no SENSE interfering.
Just my two cents.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1783260
Actually this app is no joke and was made specifically for the one x, with this app you will achieve greater performance than with cm10 or forcing the performance governor which will just overheat your phone, the tegra 3 processor couples the gpu to the cpu, for example when the game uses only two cpus the gpu is limited to half speed which is why gameloft games lag, gaming boost decouples the gpu, optimizes the cpu governor and sets the minfrees to aggressive so that the game receives enough ram to maintain a stable framerate.

But is it suitable for our HOX+ ? since the HOX+ is based on another version of the Tegra 3 will it still work stabily ???

The HOX+ is not based on another version of tegra. It's just a newer revision of the same chip in the HOX.

My lg p870 murdered my lg l 9 (769) antutu

Wow did a antutu test on both of my phones and was expecting my L 9 to beat my escape. Boy was I suprised! My l 9 got a 10,568 ( pretty good compared to some). Then I ran the escape. My jaw dropped when I saw the amazing score of 15139. WHOA, it beat it in every catagory except RAM operation. My l 9 is running kumas rom with pure performance tweaks with cpu overclocked at 1.2 ghz. The escape is running sphinx rom with no cpu tweaks. Strange thing is every stats info I see on the escape says it has 1.2 ghz dc snapdragon. However im getting 1.5 ghz??? hmm Whats everyone else scores looking like for their L 9 ?
I get around 11k running mateo's CM 10.2 ROM.

That's because custom rom overclock both CPU & GPU so it has higher score.
My L9 on CM 10.2 by mateo with stock cpu and gpu speeds i have 9843 pts

Your LG Escape has got a better cpu and gpu and it would have shown better performance anyway. My L9 running stock showed maximum of 9600 with pure performance tweaks. But I don't think Antutu points can give you a good idea of how fast and smooth your phone is

Thats what I was getting at. Despite having a better cpu and gpu on the escape using both phones side by side in real world use the L9 performs better ALL around. The gpu was a big part of the escapes high score. However in side by side comparisons the L9S graphics seems to look better and out perform the escape. So I honestly believe all benchmark scores reflects what the phones software/hardware is CAPABLE of performing not really HOW it performs with daily use. This would explain why a score can as much as double by simply running a custom rom. I would never solely base my opinion of a phones performance on a benchmark score. Sure it can give you a idea of what its software/hardware is capable of. However you cant honestly get a true feel for the performance until you try the phone. So my escape murders my L9 in benchmark scores. BUT my L9 murders my escape in real life usable performance. Anyone else agree with this?

Yeah, I got your point! I guess, the only good thing about the Escape's cpu and gpu is that it's more battery-friendly, isn't it?

Yep, and both phones use the exact same battery. The escapes standby battery life is much longer than the L9 . During normal use the escape lasts longer as well by not to the degree of the standby difference.

All G5 CPUs locked down to 1.5ghz

Hey, I saw that all CPUs are currently locked down to 1593mhz. Our chip should have 2x1.5ghz for general use and 2x2.1ghz for high performance tasks.
But in stock as in custom Roms, I see all CPUs locked down, max freq 1593mhz and no control over queue processing, either from hotplug or CPU front. Is there something I missed? Or LG just lied to us?
I know from thermal point of view that our device would not be able to sustain 2.1ghz for a long time, but if the frequency is not even available, it is a serious matter... +500mhz is not something to overlook!
If thats true, thatd be a heartbreaking, the first thing I look to before choosing a device, is clock speed
Unlock the game optimization
I checked on cpu-z and frequencies. With optimization on, it won't go over 1,5 ghz but with that option off it is easily jumping to maximum clock speed (faster battery drain). Stock rom, don't know about custom roms.

You mean game optimization in settings/battery? I think we do not have that option in custom ROMs (I am currently trying Aicp 12.1) and never changed it in stock. I will try going back to stock to disable that option and see if the frequency table changes... If it does, it will be a pre-requisite before flashing custom ROMs in our device. Still, it is something the kernel should handle.
I would underclock the device on my own, as I did with my good old G2, but not having the option for the CPUs to scale as intended is not cool...
Well, frequency table shows no change with stock, but somehow, CPUs 3 and 4 scale up to 2150mhz now.
I guess LG did not cheat in the strict sense of the word, but just does not want us to have control over our devices...

So... I was freaked out after reading this thread, so i rushed to check using cpu Z and it turned out that mine is clocked at 2.15, so i don't know what is wrong u
The Snapdragon 820 inside the LG G5 has a quad-core processor which has 2 cores clocked at 2.15 GHz and two other cores clocked at 1.6 GHz (1593 MHz), it's the way the manufacturer (Qualcomm) decided the processor to be, the LG G5 is not underclocked. Some users may get different results in applications like CPU-Z or AnTuTu depending on which core the application is based on.

The frequency table shown by kernel adiutor (or any kernel tweaking software) shows ranges 307-1593 for all processors.
I know the hardware behind, my first though was that LG underclocked it. Now I see the phone just hides its behavior and does not show the real table (or the available software is not able to see it).
We will need additional kernel development in order to effectively control the core speeds in our devices.
Case closed, thank you for the responses.

old versions of kernel auditor are buggy with the g5, they see it as a single quad core instead of big/little dual 2 cores. You need the newest kernel auditor.

Hm? Are you still that concern with benchmarks these days?
anyways, i got 64K+ on ViperOs, a good score but in Quadrant i got uninspiring results. (SD, 3GB version)
59K is good enough as long its perform well as day to day driver without any hiccup.

Using official stock ROM. Not a fan of custom ROM not anymore ultimately we will come back to stock ROM so why. Not modified stock ROM like Xiaomi.eu
65k on AEX without any modifications, 4/64gb variant.
64-65k on redmi note 4x (sd) 3/32, rom RR

Whatever bench, I don't trust bench anymore...
The mtk for example score very high bench but real performance is so bad.
Those huawei kirin score very low bench score, but it plays games, especially psp and dolphin emulation way-way better than snapdragon and mtk that have better bench score.

MTk is scoring high because it's faster but for short amounts of time because they overheat, after 10-15minutes of heavy usage like gaming it's reducing CPU/GPU frequency to reduce heat (thermal throttling), and then the performance is much worse.
Thats why benchmarks are useless, they are too short to show the real performance. For example Snapdragon 625 can keep the same performance for hours during heavy gaming without thermal throttling, because it's super power & thermal efficient.

The secret is to look at single-core performance. Multi-core benchmarks are always very high on MTK because their chips usually have more cores than others. However, how many apps actually use all those cores? All that the extra cores do is to suck your battery.

Yeah I agree,
Beside that, benchmark just measure raw power, big raw power is useless without good optimization.
Snapdragon n Kirin have lower raw power but easily beat mtk because they're way more optimized.

Overclocking / Undervolting GPU and CPU?

hi all,
is there a way to undervolt and or OC the CPU and GPU?
I remember reading a article a month ago about a GPU OC, but somehow that's it. No way to download the mentioned app etc.
Is there anything for the Mi 10 / SD 865?
Snapdragons don't overclock because they're not underclocked.

According to this news oage, we still have some potential left in our SD865
Xiaomi Mi 10 Overclocking Has Improved Significantly
he game performance has also been improved in addition to the higher running scores of the overclocked Snapdragon 865 models.
www.igeekphone.com
here is even a XDA link to another phone without any links to the app itself...
Abandoned
abandoned.
forum.xda-developers.com
so there is a way to OC and UV the SD865
That isn't what it appears to be to me. It appears to be an ongoing project to oc/uv the snapdragon processor and gpu and so far all they've done is managed to change the ram clockspeed. The pros of undervolting the ram is less heat but the cons is bottlenecking under load because ram uses voltage in correlation to clockspeed. If you overvolt the ram it produces more heat, processes more data but stability goes out of the window completely. This is NOT CPU/GPU core clocking and won't have any effect on the cores whatsoever, only data throughput.
I'll stand by my word coming from HTC to Xiaomi, both snapdragon phones, you can't overclock a snapdragon because they're not underclocked. It has been that way for a long time. What they advertise the chip as capable of is what the chip is capable of as by design and will actually be that way in the field.
If you want proof just take a browse around the later HTC phones and you won't see anything about core clocking, probably not ram volting either..

No offense, but have you read any of the two links I posted?
They literally explain, that they changed/overclocked the GPU frequency to 865mhz
stock frequency should be 587mhz.
They did overclock the GPU.
They even proved it by showing some benchmarks.. and compared it to the SD888
And this is the first time I read, that SDs are not overclockable...
865mhz is the bus and ram frequency. The cores are in the ghz.
All that has been achieved is a higher throughput and that equates to more heat and more used power. This stuff is well researched.
I honestly dont get, where you getting the RAM OC thing.
They do not use ddr7 or ddr8 on a mobile SoC, because the tech isnt there yet...
If you search for the Andreno 650 GPU you will see its specs that it is clocked at 587mhz (and not the Ram).
They are of course adjusting the ram timings too, but the xda links tells the following:
"2. edit your settings in the 3 tables. (start with adding the extra step form 865+ to 865)
3. press "Save GPU Freq Table" after editing any page, before you move to another."
If you want to stay with your resolution on this topic, it is fine.
I just want to know where we can get the KonaBess app, because google only links me to chinese pages and somehow this topic isnt as popular as I thought.
Not 100% sure if this link is allowed.... https://github.com/xzr467706992/KonaBess/releases/tag/v0.12

Just a heads up, not all snapdragons are created equally. That said, there is definitely performance left to gain via OC the adreno 650 gpu of the 865. I'm currently running a massive 930mhz on my adreno 650 and a very small cpu OC and with that, it blows the 865+ away in benchmarking and trades wins with a stock SD 888 with CPU and GPU bench scores. Any OC'ing you do I highly recommend doing a stress test before thinking you're stable.

Thanks for the heads up, I am already aware of the "silicon lottery".
I am amazed how much juice is still left in the SD865, that OCd it can even beat the 888 and is more consistent.
Do you use any App to monitor your temps and how did you OC your CPU? Afaik KonaBess only allows GPU oc?

Hi, I can't seem to find any tutorial online on how to overclock. Could you help me out ? I am gonna order a Black Shark 4 with the Snpadragon 870 soon, which is the best cherrypicked chip along the same chipset as the 865, which means that it's more likely to be a silicon lottery win... Can we get in touch on Discord ? My username is Meli #6318.
please guide me to modify the necessary things to overclock (kernel, file...)
anyway i still want to overclock it and gpu

How did you oc the cpu ? and is it possible to oc the gpu of the sd870 which is also the adreno650 but I’ve heard that it’s locked by Qualcomm trust zone , is it just a problem with sd870 or even 888 and 8 gen 1 ? Thanks in advance
