Honestly, I was never aware that the droid which has a lower processor speed is utilizing flash 10.1. If that is true then most likely we should get flash 10.1 also.

Wasn't the Droid overclocked to 1.3 ghz? More than enough for flash 10.1
CPU: 600 MHz ARM Cortex A8 Processor
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture#ARM_cores
Says here the Cortex A8 Can go 2000 MIPS @ 600 Mhz to more than 1Ghz
Our processor (Qualcomm MSM7227) goes 740MIPS @ 532–665 MHz

I think you mixed it up with the other droids. The 528mhz droid cannot be overclocked to 1.3ghz. There's more than one droid. Droid X, droid incredible, droid 2, droid pro, droid(that's the lower end version) and whatever else droid that I forgot to mention.

Your original post said 550. On the Verizon site it says Arm® Cortex™ A8 processor 550 mHz for the Droid. Same processor I looked up. I was looking for the Droid with no other names/symbols attached. That's the one that got overclocked to 1.3 Ghz. The TI OMAP 3XXX Series also falls under the same category.
Did you mean Droid Eris or Devour? They are 528.
Regardless I think what you need is on that wiki page. You just need to know which processor to look for.

Ok, I thought the X was verizon's evo. Isn't the droid X the largest screen wearing droid? Also is the moto droid really able to be clocked over 1ghz if the processors speed is originally rated at 550 mhz? That kind of seem a little impossible.

Yeah That's why I was hoping our phone could get higher.
Well if you look at the Droid X and 2 also, they've OCed from 1 Ghz to 2 and 3 Respectively.
Maybe motorola just chooses the better processors. Droid, X and 2 are all cortexes i believe.
EDIT: Actually, I think the X is a TI. So 2 is probably as well.
EDIT again: Yeah the X and 2 do have TI OMAPS.
I think we will be getting flash 10.1 because even the non rooted or overclocked droids wich are running the stock rom have it, just because they got 2.2 doesn't mean that the update also overclocked their processor, so I'm sure we will also be able to download it once we get our update, just sayin.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
We can't run it because officially our phone does not run 2.2 yet, so Adobe has not added support for our phone. Upon getting the update to Froyo (which Tmobile said would be in the near future) Adobe should be adding support for the slide. Although that doesn't mean it should be impossible for someone to port Flash 10.1 to the slide, i don't know why someone hasn't started on that yet...

We have to cross our fingers and hope; that's all we can do for now. Its been a lot of speculation about when we're getting froyo and if we're getting adobe flash 10.1 and honestly all this speculating is getting frustrating. At least some of us now know for future reference that if you want faster updates, better dev support etc. we need a 1ghz or better processor. I am aware that there are a few phones that do have a 1ghz processor and isn't running froyo officially, but do have a lot of dev support. Point blank, 1ghz or better is the way to go!

There's one thing in this thread that stuck out to me. The Droid 2 and Droid X being OCed to 2 and 3 Ghz was a hoax. Setcpu displayed it at that speed, but they weren't running at that speed. I can make Setcpu say my slide is running at over 9000 Ghz, but I won't really be at that speed.
Also, Flash 10.1 support isn't about processor architecture. It doesn't matter if our slides ran at 7Ghz, we still wouldn't have Flash 10.1 (however, if our slides were 7Ghz devices, I'm sure there would be a lot more interest from Adobe in getting flash on here.)
The reason we don't have flash is because, as of now, it requires a specific type of processor architecture, one I can't remember off the top of my head, but its the one the droids, as well as the nexus use.

If you where running a app that is only built for single core then yes, but the dual is 2x faster if it was using a app built for it.
Even with an app optimized for dual core it won't be twice as fast as the CPU isn't the only factor there. You have things like memory and storage speed etc.

No, it'll be running at 1.5ghz on two cores.
Yea it might be hard to imagine, but o2x is definitely faster even though the clock speed is the same, but it still runs at 1gHz just on 2 processores at the same time.

dinc1 has 512mb of ram, dinc2 has 768 i believe
as for faster processor, clock speed isnt everything. Just try out a 1.6ghz atom and compare it to a 1.6ghz i3. The snapdragon in the Dinc2 is a new chip, with a smaller architecture and better power management, with a newer GPU.
Not to be an ass, but honestly you're comparing an older phone to a newer one. The Dinc2 is an all around better phone simply because it has some more refined components in it.
As for the dev community, this phone has quite an active one. We have 2 different ICS ports (one on xda, the other on rootzwiki), countless sense roms, TSM poolparty, OMFGB, OMGB, CM7, MIUI, etc. We have nearly anything you could want running on this phone out, or in the pipeline.
This is a great device and if you're looking to get one, i'd recommend it.
100% agreed.
I started with the HTC Eris
Then the D INC 1
and now D INC 2, and all 3 were great phones. But the INC2 just blows the INC1 out of the water. Is the Inc1 still a nice phone? Yes. Is the INC2 much better? Yes.

you can compare the whole specs side by side at gsmarena.com ( very good site ) , and here is the link for the comparison http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3938&idPhone2=3230
I have looked and looked and now I have given up looking. Where can I find the spec to my phone. (EX. CPU under clocked and over clocked limt) Now I know I am new to posting here and I am def. a newb so my question might not even have a real answer. I still figured I should ask for peace of mind.
Did you try using the search function? I think the limits are like 300mhz to 1.72ghz... ish...
The search right next to "find your device." just brings up google and yes I have over searched google. Maybe I am just not putting in the right key words. Ether way thank you because what you just said just gave me more info then I could find. I am running 1080 max and 300 something min. next one up from 198 that i was useing but figured that was to low.
Some people have reported problems with 198. The highest we can currently OC is 1.836, but keep in mind that uses a lot of power, and heats up the phone really quickly. It also doesn't seem to benchmark as well as 1 or 2 levels lower. Generally, using Fauxclock with 1.512 Max on demand works perfectly for me. It also turns off a core to save even more power.
What is up with these numbers are these even for the same phone?

Definitely wrong. T-Mobile, Telus, Skyrocket are all the same phone with same processor chip (qualcomm). That's why our ROMs are interchangeable even if some kernel information is not.

I had a samsung galaxy s 2 dual core and now i have the htc one x quad core, but i can't see the difference in speed, is it normal ?
out of curiosity: does it lag on live wallpapers? can u try?
It's perfectly normal, and something I've been warning people about for a long time now. SG2 had a dual core 1.5 GHz processor, One X has a quad core 1.5 GHz processor. Having 2 more cores does not mean that the One X is twice as fast, just that it's twice as strong. There's a big difference.
Read all the way through this thread discussing the positive/negatives of dual core vs quad core processors. I spent a lot of time there trying to dispel a lot of the ignorance surrounding the science behind what makes a processor faster/stronger than the next.

No, the techno-illiterate keep spreading this myth that more cores equals faster speeds. It's just not true.
It can do more things at once versus a dual core CPU, but if it's at the same Cortex class and clocked to the same speed, it's not going to be any faster.
+1 watch the video of the galaxy nexus vs the one x phone arena did, it is embarrassing how awesome the nexus looks compared to the one x.
Honestly the dual core versions with the s4 are better performers for the reason stated, better cortex and smaller nm. It also means for better battery efficiency.

I don't think the OP has EITHER phone. He's making so many post on which to buy , which means he hasn't got it? He's also saying he has a Sensation and XL... he has that many phones?

It's perfectly normal, and something I've been warning people about for a long time now. SG2 had a dual core 1.5 GHz processor, One X has a quad core 1.5 GHz processor. Having 2 more cores does not mean that the One X is twice as fast, just that it's twice as strong. There's a big difference.
Read all the way through this thread discussing the positive/negatives of dual core vs quad core processors. I spent a lot of time there trying to dispel a lot of the ignorance surrounding the science behind what makes a processor faster/stronger than the next.

Much like PCs, the move from single to dual core showed immense promise. However, the move from dual to quad can appear very, very underwhelming.
You really have to have applications that are programmed for the architecture of your processor. Otherwise, the benefit is bragging rights, and even then, who wants to be that guy...
The gs2's touchwiz is just better built software. While not absent lag, it's the least laggy android skin.
I prefer Galaxy S II because it is more powerful in my option.
I never had a HTC phone but i think i'll take a shot some day!

I'm sorry but that's just your opinion, my missus has the s2 and many a times it lags and touchwiz is a horrible skin, I prefer sense 4 anyday. But that's just my opinion.

+1 watch the video of the galaxy nexus vs the one x phone arena did, it is embarrassing how awesome the nexus looks compared to the one x.
Honestly the dual core versions with the s4 are better performers for the reason stated, better cortex and smaller nm. It also means for better battery efficiency.

Hmmm...the dual core variant kind of looks like **** here when compared to the One X tegra 3:

The lag is due to sence and not the hardware, I'm using nova launcher and live wallpapers are fine.

'Sense' spell it right!

Also, live wallpapers need to be optimized. There can be a 25 core A15 at 5GHz and if the software does not fully support the capabilities of the CPU, it's gonna lag.
Alright so I have had 5 Droid x2s within less than a year. I'm able to get a free Droid inc2 instead of another x2 replacement. I'm wondering if any of you inc2 had a x2 before and what you liked better and why. Im currently running cm9 on my x2 and its pretty zippy. I want my phone to be fast. Very fast. I'm not sure if I should sick with my x2 or get the inc2. All input is welcome and thanks! =D

I would get the Incredible 2 just because the phone is guaranteed to get the update to ICS later on (the Droid X2 is going to stuck on gingerbread sadly).
I would get the dinc2. I currently have both and I absolutely love my dinc2. And even though it only has a single core even without overclocking you will not see a difference between the dinc and the x2...well besides a smaller screen.

thanks for the input guys. I have done a lot of research on the two comparing them over and over. By the looks of it the inc 2 usually comes out on top. The "dual" core x2 doesn't even use the tegra 2 processors to the full potential because the 2.3.x software doesn't take it into account. so those dual cores are just as good as a single core without properly adjusting for it. which moto (like usually) failed to do. Looks like im getting the inc 2 =D
