Wow 16 is outright terrible for performance. Phones getting hot and rebooting and quadrant dropped 1000 points!!!!

Quadrant is a terrible benchmark, especially for dual core devices. Antutu or CF Bench are a bit better, although I still wouldn't treat any benchmark as an indication of my device's true performance.

I haven't gotten around to trying 16 yet though. I did see someone else saying that their device didn't like 16 either. But I have seen a few that seemed to have no issues with it as well. So not really sure if it is a kernel problem or something else.

I didn't mean to say quadrant. I use antutu. That was a mistake. And as I said, the performance is bad too, not just the benchmark score. Hopefully Franco releases a new one soon so I can get off this one.

Edit: OK 16.1 is already out :D

Antutu scores are all over the place. Performance seems much more sensitive to voltage now on these 16.x kernels. Reg voltage 16.1 with gazelle and 700-1350 got me like 4900 on antutu...terrible. dropped 1350 and 1200 by 75mV and 1000 and 700 by 50mV and I set a new antutu benchmark record lol. I think its running too hot at reg voltages.

Now that 4.0.4 is out, and Francos kernels work with it... anyone running stock 4.0.4 with francos kernel?
Its working great! i'm going to have to test battery but i overclocked it to 1.35 ghz (1.5 is unstable) and its very speedy

I was looking at rootz wiki under Franco's kernel thread, it looks like the 1.5 ghz was expermental. There are a few people that can get it to work (not me) but 1.35ghz is still working great.
