I recently bought a v1620 on ebay and as soon as I got it I upgraded to wm5 (Helmi BA WM2k5 AKU3.2 Beta (v.1.3.2 Beta)) now I noticed on it that it says that the processor in it is an intel pxa263 when everywhere I have read says that the v1620 has a pxa270. Could this be due to the upgrade it is somehow telling me the wrong processor or is everywhere else incorrect?
I am pretty sure it is a v1620 and not a VPA III as that is supposed to have a pxa263 processor.
Any help appreciated.
PXA263 is correct
I have a V1620, and that is the correct processor. What are your sources that say PXA270?
Both at pdadb.net and softpedia.com (http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=205 and http://mobile.softpedia.com/phones/Vodafone/Vodafone-v1620.shtml) and I have seen it elsewhere. I can't find anywhere saying its a 263 though.
It doesn't really matter to be honest I'm just intrigued.
Maybe their original source was the unwired, where the following correction was posted? http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=2342

Dear All,
In common with many of you (I'm sure), I am struggling with the choice between a Prophet and the Atom (or wait for the Hermes...?)
Pros:
camera (have seen great pictures from prophet)
wireless G
Quad band (not essential but nice to have)
Bluetooth 2
SD (currently 2 gig ultra, don't want to have to buy another one!)
Cons
No FM Radio
no flash (not fussed really)
Question over the Processor speed.
The big question, however, is whether either system will run TomTom 5 (or 5.2). This is the real go/no go app for me, and I would greatly appreciate anyone who has used either handset and can let me know whether they can run TomTom.
Many thanks in advance for your advice.

just got this from Qtek UK:
Hi,
Yes we believe that Hermes will be released in q1 2006.
No full spec yet, best guess is as 9100 + extra features.
? The HTC Hermes phone has the following features:
? UMTS, EDGE, GPRS, GSM Quadband
? Display resolution of 320 by 240 - QVGA
? Bluetooth support
? Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g
? 416Mhz Intel XScale Processor
? 2.1 Megapixel Camera
? QWERTY keyboard
Word on the street is the Kaiser will appear on September 3, 2007 via AT&T and be known as the 8925. See http://crunchgear.com/2007/08/09/breaking-att-tilt-price-and-launch-date-leaked/
So, question: Have any of our insider cooks gotten their hands on a Kaiser? And, if so, what's the process like for flashing one? As painless as the 8525, or a chore like the 8125?
While we're talkin' about it, what is the technological spec differences between the Kaiser and Hermes? Other than a fancy flip feature, I cannot see a spec which leads me to believe it's any better than the Hermes.
Thanks,
J
why don't you go read up in the kiaser section of Xda! this is the hermes part. the specs blow the 8525 away go do some research.
I did read up on it prior to the post. But, thanks for the words of wisdom.
Having read up on it, my thoughts are: you are easier to impress than I. As a slower CPU and larger RAM doesn't equal something blowing away something else. In light of that, I thought there was perhaps I was missing.

wow u really need to learn how to read more before posting. the cpu on the kaiser is a qualcomm 400mhz dual core cpu as far as i know. our hermes have a 400mhz since core. difference is that the kaiser has 1 core to handle phone functions and another to handle programs making it superior to the hermes. go on modaco and read what paul has to say. when u add hsupa, 7.2mbps hsdpa, 256 rom, 128 ram, tilt screen, improved scroll wheel, slides other way, touchflo, gps, 3mp with a good night mode and good sensor, better keyboard, lights for function and caps above keyboard, and do all this in a thinner package then u know u got a good upgrade to the kaiser. by the way, roms will be just as easy to cook as on hermes. all u need is to get a kaiser to olipro to do cid and simunlock and hardspl and get a cook like me a kaiser and ull have great roms. i seen the roms and have dumped them so i know.
Thanks for the detailed reply. That's exactly what I was looking for!
As for the CPU, the wiki here states that it's a 384MHz, not 400. But, most other things I've seen say 400. I didn't know it was dual core, so appreciate that info!
And, with the specs as you detailed them, I'm now excited and thinking about an upgrade! But, the wiki's details are not so stimulating
Also, I would imagine you're right re: flashing, as the Kaiser is quite similar to the Hermes. I was just having horrible thoughts of flashing my kid's 8125 and hoping that I wouldn't be buying myself a headache if I purchase the Kaiser.
Thanks again!
J
woa!! its dual core... really awesome too bad the resolution stay the same as hermes if only it was better, like 640x480 or maybe more like toshiba portege G900 having a 800x480 resolution screen...
I can say it`s an awesome device !

From what I can recall, the Samsung chips outperform Intel chips by a good margin -- when the 300Mhz Samsung was introduced a few years ago it held it's own with the then industry standard Intel PXA 25x clocked at 400Mhz. A 200 Mhz TI OMAP conserves power better than an intel clocked to the same frequency. In that sense, comparing the clock frequencies isn't all that revealing.
Who knows how the Qualcomm chips perform compare to the Samsungs? For all we know a dual Core Qualcomm could be worse that the 400 Mhz Samsung in the Tytn. It's unlikely, but not unprecedented that WinCE PDA specs stagnate or get worse from one generation to another. When HP took over Compaq a few of the iPaq lines ended up with slower processors.
Personally, I'd wait to see some benchmarks on the Kaiser before I buy.

I've seen some benchmarks and they all SMOKE the Hermes.
http://www.cdmatech.com/download_library/pdf/msm7200_chipset.pdf
thats the spec sheet for the processor. according to it there is a 400mhz application processor and 274mhz microprocessor. also shows hsdpa up to 7.2mbps and hsupa up to 5.76mbps. will be a nice phone with a awesome processor.
but again back to the threat subject - will it be a problem to change the radio rom on the Kaiser ?
I'm not sure if this is still relevant, but a thread at the beginning of June suggested that new handsets with 3G chips from Qualcomm were banned from the USA while a trade dispute was being settled. Has this dispute been settled yet? If not then you guys in the USA may not be seeing your Kaisers for quite some time.

Not anymore. It's now been moved back to September 17th so they can get rid of some of the excess 8525's. I heard this directly from an HTC AT&T rep.
Developers where are you? If you are developers make plz updation to wm5 or wm6 on HTC Harrier, CDMA version of BA. Replace GSM module on wm5 or 6 in BA update into CDMA, and it will work =) Sorry for my English i'm from Ukraine. Please help =)
up up up up up
UP!! =))) ^^^^^^^
well if you read you will find out that there is no wm5/6/6.1 ever created for harrier device (or not even one wm5 rom have left microsoft labs)
also if you have been reading you wont spam the threads like this
I wont spam,but i want wm5 on my Harrier :'( Why GSM us Upgradebla but CDMA are not((
because before a few years wm5 rom for Blueangel leaked to the web and it is used as base rom for wm6 and wm 6.1, no such rom leaked for Harrier (we have no wm5 core for it (nk.exe) and no drivers for it)
BA is GSM version of HARRIER and i think all you need is port cdma driver(on example HTC apache) and change it in BA wm5
apache drivers are not compatible with harrier, so anyone do not need to port driver but rewrite one
Rewrite Harriers drivers like as Apache one =)
Since upgrading to an Apache, my Harrier has simply been a PDA. I have no need for CDMA. Is it possible to cripple the GSM on a Blue Angel ROM so I can install WM5/WM6/WM6.1 on my Harrier?

That is for the GSM version, Blue Angel. It will not work on Harrier, the CDMA version unless yopu can prove that it does via pictures.
Please edit your post and delete the link and info so you do not confuse Harrier owners. UNLESS you can prove otherwise.

Well- did you realise you replied to a post over 4 years old?
They were talking about the incompatibility of Blue Angel ROMs and Harrier.
Those two devices look similar from the outside, but are technically pretty different.
Somewhere around here is an illustrated thread about it. By me
Hey all,
I have a Blue Angel at the moment, 400MHz ARM processor.
How does the orbit processor 200MHz OMAP compare? I know the pseeds are different but so is the architecture...do they work out about the same or not?
I'm thinking baout buying an Orbit but just wanted to know what performance was like on these compared to an older model such as the Blue Angel.
Thanks!

Orbit 2 has a 400MHz processor
Yea I know but I didnt say orbit 2...
I wanted to know is there much different between the 2 processor I mentioned.
Not very different
I got a chance to play with HTC Tytan II and it seemed slower than artemis.
I have both a Blue Angel and Artemis, the only time you notice the difference is when you load up the Artemis with too many applications running at the same time, I think this is more to do with the available memory though.
The Artemis lacks memory whereby the Blue Angel had quite some to go at. Artemis is a great device as was the BA in its day, although I do still like the larger screen size of the BA when using it in the car.
Artemis is fine though with applications running so long as you close the applications when finished with them, install applications to the memory card to preserve the onboard memory and I doubt you would notice the difference between the BA and Artemis in use - Mike
Thanks Mike, that's the kind of comparison I was looking for!
The larger screens of the XDA pda's are ghreat but they're just a little too big and bulky now for carrying around in my pocket...looking for somehting a little smaller now...Orbit looks the goods...I dont need a slide out keyboard, I never use the one on the BA...
Artemis Processor,
Try following website and does all the specification comparison between different modles,

wow, great site, thanks!
Hi,
I'm going to buy BlueAngel Refresh, in brand of Vodafone v1620. Can i use standard ROM's for BlueAngel on this device? It's having 520mHz processor instead of BA 400mHz... I can't find any information to figure this.
Regards!
This device is CDMA, so you must look for harrier rom
