Develop Bugs

Dear techie: is it possible to upgrade proccesor?

I thought about those 2 free ram slots..
and i even found a distributer of "infineon" near me !
i think i'll take my JJ to some 1 to solder it,
and another Q is:
is it possible to buy a faster intel proccesor and replace the existing one?
will there be any problems with that?

Technical info and opinion
About RAM:
If you buy the same specification ram and have a company microsolder them into your device, great! It should be fairly straightforward. Please take measurements of your device's performance, battery life, observations, and system info before and after updating and post back to let us all know how it goes.
About Processor:
Windows Mobile 5 seems to be built to automagically recognise the parameters of the Intel XScale CPU in it, meaning that switching the CPU to another of the same family should not cause problems. Replacing it would be an impressive feat to accomplish physically, so again get back to us all on this. You could get up to 800Mhz! Check out Intel's Xscale roadmap at http://download.intel.com/design/embedded/downloads/30610501.pdf
Pocket Hack Master is a utility which allows users to overclock their HTC Universal; see http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=overclock
My personal observation:
I'd be reluctant to try microsoldring surface-mount ram chips to my new Universal (has to be done professionally). My 64MB work fine, not to mention another two chips would potentially add 1.4watts (0.7watts each) of battery drain and heat power dissipation to my device. I've only got 1600mAh and tend to travel (no-recharge).
I urge other users to mod their devices in the pursuit of science and performance; both truely noble causes. Example, more ram would ease the running of Linux on this device. Please continue working towards a Linux port for Windows Mobile devices!

now comes another moding question:
is it possible to buy a better battery?
or is the one that comed with it - "standard" and unchangeable?
10x,

P.S
P.S-
Which proccessor would you reccomend on that will not drain my batt?
(please specify exact model so i'll know what to ask for)
as for Ram: Is it possible to replace to existing ram with a higher one?
or just upgrading by adding 2 more (exactly the same) ram chips? if it id indeed possible -
again, please write me what model do i need (that would drain my batt life).
Use this link for reference:
www.infineon.com//upload/Document/Memory Products/Brochures/Mobile RAM/Mobile-RAM_2004-03.pdf
10x again,

ok, i just got off the phone with
some 1 who works with intel,
asked him the question and he says - right now 520 MHZ is fastests,
(it also says it here)
http://www.intel.com/design/embeddedpca/applicationsprocessors/302302.htm
and soon will come out a new proccessor but even then, you wont be able to just do a simple switch between them.
it'll have to be acompanied by a software update ect....
but hey, i wont mind updating just my ram :lol:

[Q] Is the Gnex faster than a quad core cortex a7?

Gnex has 1.2ghz dual core cortex a9 ti omap 1gb ram Powervrsgx540, 720p hd display
is the specs of the Gnex better than 1.2ghz quad core cortex a7 mediatek 1gb ram powervrsgx544,720p display

From the benchmark perspective, no it's not. Dual A9's usually equal to quad A7's in CPU power, while SGX544MP1 is obviously superior to SGX540. However, the bloatware those small manufacturers tend to put in those MTK devices will obviously slow the phone down. Words around the internet also say that although MT6589 is a quad A7 CPU, only 2 cores are used per normal task.
I suppose you're gonna buy a device - don't buy MTKs, there's usually no development for them, they may never get future Android upgrades even via flashing (because there's no custom ROM at all), meaning that your phone could be dead on arrival. Personal opinion so feel free to oppose.

Iocean X7S Elite - Real Octa-core phone mini review

Hi
Last seven days i have Iocean X7S Elite phone. I have to say that this device is really great. The most important features of this device are MT6592 1.7GHz Octa-core cpu, 2GB of RAM, Mali 450, FHD screen, Gesture control and 3G WCDMA can work on 900Mhz or 2100Mhz.
Significant technical specs
MT6592 1.7GHz Octa-core cpu
Mali 450 gpu
2GB of Ram
Screen: 5.0 inch, 1920X1080 pixels FHD screen, 443PPI
Network: WCDMA+GSM
Band: 2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
3G: WCDMA 2100MHz/900MHz
Gesture control
If you will be interested you can see here the full review for Iocean X7S
As for the design, I have a model in black and white combination. but it is possible to buy it in a completely black color. The case is made of good quality plastic.
This is how it looks
The screen is 5 inch big with resoulution of 1920X1080 pixels. It is Full HD screen or FHD. I have to say that the screen is brilliant. Color rendition is excellent, and also have an excellent viewing angle. therefore I do not have some objections for the screen.
This V8 beast have MT6592 1.7GHz octa core cpu + 2GB Ram + Mali 450 = win+win combination. It is really good combination, all applications that I have tried, it worked flawlessly. If you do not have too many installed apps, then there will always be freely around 1.3GB of ram.
Iocean X7S Elite scored 27200 points in antutu benchmark app. You can see screenshot below.
Also you can see the Vellamo Mobile Benchmark results :good:
All certainly wondering how GPS works on Iocean X7S ? Gps works great, I'm also pleasantly surprised because without wifi and network connection and without any fixes, gps works great with no problems.
I also want to say something about Gesture control function. It is really cool function which works good and that can be very useful. For now you can use it only for basic functions such as going through menu, etc.
Thank you

About the video quality you can see below examples:
And here you can see how Iocean X7S plays movies, in this example is Star Trek Ds9 fight :victory:

Great Review! thank you- I am happy to ee that they have fixed the GPS problem from MTK6589 version..
I am thinking to buy the MTK6582 version.

Yes, they fixed the problem. Now gps is working good.

What rom you have?

what rom u have
what rom u have

How would you compare it to Neken N6S?
What is the pricing of iOcean X7S Elite?
N6S has practically same specs as X7S, no bloatware, standard android no candy like MIUI, around $220 + shipping + tax.
Can you post more GPS screenshots and first fix times? Of course no WiFi, somewhere outside in the open.
What is the battery endurance? I guess it's going to be around the same for all MT6592 devices.

Hi,
There is stock rom on the device. Gps works good in the same way without sim card and Wifi

I checked it out. Looks really nice

I have the x7s one month now.
I cannot say I have found any single issue yet. The phone rocks and also with open wifi all day and normal use on calls the small battery lasts easily for the day.
It was much worse during the first days but after a week the battery started performing better.
gps locks in no time, the screen is ultra sharp in colours and the phone is very light overall

Why octa-core?

The galaxy tab s products that are available to me have an octa-core processor, with the high speed cores being 1.9ghz. I can't really understand why Samsung chose to use that instead of a 2.3ghz quad-core like in the tab pro.

See Wikipedia for an explanation of the concept: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_...multi-processing_.28global_task_scheduling.29

Because the Exynos 5 Octa-core is the one processor that Samsung has to be able to compete with Snapdragon 800, and is cheaper to implement since it's their own processor. I don't buy the Octa-core hype, I'd be happier with the Snapdragon 800 honestly like on the Tab PRO 8.4.

The question is:
Does TAB S use the 8 cores at the same time?
It seams it does NOT, little cores are only used when low power is required..
So performance wise, this CPU is slower than SD 800

And yet I am getting 35,300 on Antutu using Shaheers t800 rom which is higher than any other current tablet or phone. (Shaheer's rom should go out of beta today - don't flash until final has been posted).
The Tab Pro 8.4 Antutu is 32,806.

I CANT PLAY NOVA 3 with exynos !
AND GAMING IS NOT SO SMOOTH ! STILL A BIT LAGGY

I can see the argument that you don't always need full power, thus the four slow cores, but since all cores can't run at once, it seems a cheat to have 1.9ghz as the top speed for the faster four cores. Since, or at least I assume, cores step up and down as needed, it seems to me a snapdragon 800 or higher at 2.3ghz or higher would have been just fine. I mean, if you are going to put in 3gb of RAM, then you should put in a great cpu also and not pretend less (1.9ghz) is a better contribution to what is supposed to be a premium tablet.

And yet I don't think samsung is doing enough to utilizing this hardware capability. In theory it should run at least 4x faster and 6x more effecient then the snap dragon and apple current A8 chip. It has failed to outshine the competitors because samsung software department sucks. Samsung hardware is still great though.

Blame the developer for not making it compatible. Tegra powered Htc one x is incompatible too so not sure that is exynos issue..

i wish my t805 had Full HD screen resolution :cyclops:

Funny. Was just browsing the web a bit on my i5 ultrabook and it occurred to me that the browser on my Tab S is actually faster. If gaming is your primary thing, I'd buy the Nvidia Shield, not the Tab S. This tablet is designed for eye candy media consumption (internet and video) not for gaming enthusiasts. Try running your PC video card at 2560 x 1600 on ultra and see what you get.

i had heard from a Samsung rep i actually enjoy talking to that Sammy had just figured the all cores at once and we should see updates that turn that feature on. when this will happen who knows. i also did not ask him for a link and now cant find that info on the web so when i see him again soon i will get more info.
i would assume (insert you know what that means) that when/if this happens the full power of this setup would greatly improve?
anyway i have had my Tab S running snappy for me and no complaints at this time

You cannot compare the clock speeds from two different processors. For instance, you can't compare the 1.9GHz quad-core of the Exynos to the 2.3GHz quad-core of the Snapdragon 800. This doesn't mean anything. If you compare the clock speed of two Snapdragon chips, that's ok, or if you compare the clock speed of two Exynos chips, then that's ok too. Comparing the clock speed of an Intel chip against the clock speed of an AMD chip, is the same as comparing the clock speed of an Exynos chip to the clock speed of a Snapdragon chip.
The Exynos chip in this tablet has been shown to compete very well/close with the Snapdragon on every level except GPU. The Mali GPU in this chip just doesn't match the Adreno GPU from the Snapdragon. However, the RAM is faster in the Exynos than the Snapdragon.
That said, I am a fan of the Snapdragon chip, of course. I was holding off to see if the LTE variant of this tablet would have the Snapdragon 800, but instead they shipped with an Intel LTE modem. Besides apps/games not being optimized for Exynos, I am fairly satisfied with my purchase. I'm just anxious to get CyanogenMod(or any other AOSP ROM installed on it).

Could also mean increased battery consumption,don't know. Overall I am satisfied with this Tab including battery life.

There are 3 different performace results:
a) what Exynos 520 does achieve in practice now, measured bei some benchmarks and real world performance (<= Snapdragon 800)
b) what it could do theoretically - but will never happen due to driver and scheduler etc issues (>> Snapdragon)
c) what it will do some day in near future on an optimized ROM (somewhere in between?)
Fortunately the Exynos 5420 does support all 8 cores in parallel, see here:

If it is possible to implement in today's existing source, I'm sure @AndreiLux would know about it ?

I've found a few articles saying it should support it, then a couple Deva saying they had to goto the 5422 for a working implementation of HMP.
Here is a post from odroid

That's weird. The (newer) 5422 supports HMP but not 3gb RAM.

Onda v919 Air 3G Dual Boot 9.7" 2048x1536 px - Z3736F - 3G - Android/Windows

I've just received my Onda V919 Air 3G, only the 32GB version is in stock at the time of writing this which I got from Geek Buying here: Mod edit: link removed (commercial advertisement not allowed) There seems to be supply issues as the system was delayed a few times by Onda and the 64GB model is still about 2 weeks off from shipping out.
I think it's a promising looking system that could do with some custom roms and XDA Love The OS switch button seems to just reboot the tablet in the OS, it's not really a non reboot on the fly OS switch like Onda claim it is! It's only a bit faster than the Teclast OS dual boot switch due to not having the dual boot menu to go through. However if you want to boot to Android and you shutdown in Windows, you have to load Windows then do the switch, no direct menu on boot to jump to Android, this is slower than Teclast's approach!
Edit: The latest bios update adds a dual boot start up selector menu if you hold volume up on boot.
First impressions:
So far my initial impressions are generally good, the system is more of an iPad Air clone than the X98 Air 3G is in terms of its looks. I''ll be putting the tablet through it's paces so far I can report that:
Pros:
Nice build quality, better than my X98 Air 3G (Feels more solid)
Captive home button for Android and Windows start button is a nice addition.
Light rom for a Chinese tablet.
Fast Hynix 32GB eMMC drive - 160mbs read and 80 write)
Cons:
Slightly larger gap (0.1-0.2mm?) between the screen and touch panel Vs the Teclast X98 Air 3G
No HDMI output
Some connectivity issues with my home Wireless N router, a few limited connections in Windows.
Battery life a good 1-2 hours less than the Teclast X98 Air 3G depending on use.
You have to remove the plastic top cover when removing sd cards and your Wifi and 3G aerial is there, so you will loose signal!

beli dr aliexpress kena 235 dolar. msh nunggu nih dah seminggu di kirim tapi bru update trackingnya..
ga tau nih ntar masuknya kena pajak brp. kmrn itu ambil teclast x98 kena pajak 560rb. gelooo...

Is the battery cell capacity indeed 6000 mAh? Because when I Iook on the Onda website in the textual specifications it states 7000 mAh.

This one might have HSPA capabilities with T-Mobile in the US. I am hoping someone can confirm soon.

No Gps and no hdmi out. I'm having issues with Windows and a limited connection on Wifi or it disconnecting, Android however runs fine. Play Store works out of the box and the rom is nice and responsive.
After Windows updates I ran out of disk space for some reason, I'm doing a factory reset. I had around 8GB free to start with.

based on my own estimation teclast, 30% are defective product
the fastmode fix is a joke, since with this pseudo patch the tablet run slower but dont freeze but only in android ... still freezing under win8.1
teclast cant be trusted anymore .... i will advoid this brand in futur ...
anyway teclast are very weak about software/firmware .....
ist seem teclast focus about sale and $$ ... and dont care much about customer

Well I've a rather big issue, I factory reset my Windows install due to Windows update eating up all of my free space and as a result I dont have the OS switch working. Any ideas on how to install the OS switch, I have no access to Windows now
