Question about Quadrant benchmark.

[MannyZ28]

So I was watching a review of the Thunderbolt in which the reviewer noted that his own Evo scored around 1200 points. The Thunderbolt landed up cranking out around 1600. I haven't had Quadrand Standard installed on my phone for a while due to lack of space, so I downloaded the newest version, simply because I couldn't remember my Evo, or any other Evo for that matter, cracking 1000 in Quadrant. Sure enough, mine scored a measly 769. The part that just seemed to take forever were the I/O File system writes, they didn't seem to take that long.

Anyhow, when the result graph came up they showed an Evo on 2.2+ that had a score of over 1200....what is that? An Evo running Gingerbread?

Just wondering....

I dunno about a stock evo but i score 1700s after rooting and roming.

My stock evo got about 1200 actually, this is back about 6 months ago though. Try turning off your phone and taking out the battery for 30 seconds to clear the cache, then reboot and before opening any other apps run quadrant a couple times.

Quadrant doesnt really mean much. Most roms I have tried range from 1100-1450 or so depending on stock kernal or not. OC'ing rarely gets me much further. My gf's stock evo did like 1150-1200 off the top of my head.
I have felt lower quadrants feel faster and vice versa

Ok after a reboot it came up a bit to 918. I am still wondering though, what is android 2.2+ ?

2.2 is the most current version of Android running on a good portion of Android devices. The "+" I think just means versoin 2.2 or higher.

2.3 is Gingerbread and unless your rooted and running CM7, MIUI or a few other custom roms you should be running 2.2.

One thing I've notice when running quadrant score apps is that you have to run them a few times in a row and get an average. Running it one time doesn't seam to ramp up the CPU to its fullest.

I just ran it 4 times(with out overclocking), first score was 1098, second was 1120, third was 1290 and the fourth was 1460.

Overclocked doing the same thing I got 1400, 1568, 1650 and 1675.

After running it like 6 times in a row I scored a high of 997. I think a lot of that has to do with the I/O writes, because everything else seems pretty consistent. Well, I didn't expect it to score very high, my poor phone is pretty loaded up with what I will refer to as "necessary stuff". You know you have too much stuff on your phone if you have to delete a few apps to get something else installed....

Mine's a little "off" today. Normall well over 1,000. I show 966 and it shows the "HTC Evo 2.2+" at 1150-1200. I'm an underachiever.

If your phone is running well, forget benchmarks. They don't matter. They simply make you go looking for stuff that you won't likely find, and won't make much difference even if you do. Enjoy your phone.
