New Droid Bionic Specs Leaked!

This is what I found brewing over at the droid forums..
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/motorola-droid-bionic/148222-new-bionic-specs.html
A reputable source that works for Verizon has highlighted these specs: (Taken from his tweet)
(The Mobile Panda): "1.5ghz Dual core, 3g svdo, LTE on board, 4.3inch HD display with 1gb ram. 12mp cam in back 2mp in front.. anyone interested?"
Possibly the revamped Droid Bionic to become the Targa. If these specs are true, this should put Big Red back into the game.
What do you all think? Thought I'd spread the news.

I don't understand why so many people are so quick to assume that this rumored upcoming device is the droid bionic. The tweet never stated that this was the bionic, or even a motorola device for that matter.
Second, I highly doubt delayed to receive a few enhancments means 50 more processor, 100% more ram, and different cameras (both front & back).
this seems to me to sound more like htc's timing. They seem to have beat motorola to the punch more often than not lately.

It is now reliably reported that this is not the specs of the Bionic.
However, I don't understand why you don't understand that the Etna was scrapped and the Bionic is now the Targa. That Moto had problems with LTE plus Tegra 2, and that if you move to a new SOC, why wouldn't it be an increase in all specs and concurrent with SOC's that will be in production the latter half of this year.

"The bionic is now the targa" ??? Again, this is a speculation. Speculations, rumors, oppinions, & a$$ holes all fall in the category...
When people state these rumors as being fact, it just creats chaos on the forums = trolls.

No, the original phone that was planned to be the "Bionic" was Motorola xt865 codename "Etna" with Tegra 2. They had problems and scrapped it, apparently due to Tegra 2/LTE issues they were having(probably battery issues also). They took another project in the pipeline, codename "Targa", with TI OMAP 4430, and decided to make that the phone that will be released as "The Bionic"

No, I don't have it - but the info is getting out there now. FCC confidentiality ended so we have some reasonably solid information and Verizon testers have them and the "leaks" are saying it is looking good. You can just google "Motorola Droid Bionic xt875" and you will see there is a lot out there - just look at the info from the past couple of weeks though as it is the most current and accurate.

Truth
These are the specs for the Pantech Vega Racer. It's a Korean phone. Sorry, but I can't post links yet, but it is on engadget.com. The article name is "Pantech cooks up world's first 1.5 GHz dual-core phone, tablet in the works". It is filed under Handsets and written by Brad Molen on May 18th, 2011.

I am thinking of getting a xoom or this phone. I can't decide. I really was hoping for a bigger screen.

Why does my internet do this?

What ISP do you have? I'm guessing FIOS.

I don't understand why the download speed jumps from being slow (for this test just now, it started at around 11, slowly creeping up to 40ish), then jump to incredible speed (jumped to ~400-500), and speedtest.net just randomly decides a number for the download result...

The number is an average, lol. Might be the way that fiber optics work. And I am super mad at Verizon for not offering FIOS in my area yet. I'm stuck with TWC @ 10 down and .5 up.

Does it do that on any other speed test sites, or even a different server on that one?

With close servers, yes. Servers very far, nope; it's just slow.
Other speed tests, like SpeakEasy and DSLReports, do do that also. DSLReports Java tests, however, are more stable (doesn't go up to the said 500ish, but only upto around 100 when it jumps).

What speed are you subscribed to. I don't know much about fios except we don't have it here. If its anything like charter and Comcast do though its probably a speed boost at the beginning of your download. It it is then a speed test that runs past the boost would show it slow back down some.
Mine is supposed to be 20 down

40down, 30up. When I'm downloading something big off direct connects, it caps out around 5-6MB/s and stays like that until completed download, which is around 40Mb/s, so I do get the full speed, but for speed tests, it jumps like that...

One possibility is that Verizon temporarily allocates more bandwidth to an individual user when the system is operating well below capacity (perhaps during off-peak hours), kinda like Comcast's Powerboost stuff that's advertised all the time. You could try testing during peak times and see what happens.
/not on verizon, wouldn't know for sure.

Q why is radio so much slower than Skyrocket on WIFI?

So i have been running side by side tests against an at&t skyrocket.
On wifi off he same wifi router the skyrocket gets speeds up to 20k where the note gets a little over 5k. I have tried on a number of routers and get the same results.
On non LTE networks the skyrocket gets on average DOUBLE the speed.
Quadrant shows my note at 3900 and the SR at 2600. Which is in line with what I have seen on the web. Unconnected to the above, but I wanted to see if I have a dud note. I don't.
Anyone know why? Does the skyrocket have a newer or different radio chip?
Anyway, I am prepared to bet that the at&t note will be faster than the international one we currently have.

The Note doesn't have LTE (the korean Note has). It has HSDPA (21 Mbps). Why the Wifi is slower than on your Skyrocket is another question. I have no idea.

What was the point of your response? To find out you have no idea?

How are testing speeds?
Next time you do a side by side do a real world test:...simultaneously download graphic heavy sites. The difference is negligible.

I don't have an LTE phone to compare to, but i can tell you i have no problem exceeding 20k on wifi with the note.

So it could be my radio. What rom and radio build do u have
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App

Again... there's low correlation between those synthetic app scores and real world speed performances of the phones.
I've done side by side tests of Note and Skyrocket. Speedtests bear out exactly what your saying. But... Ive Then immediately downloaded say desktop gizmodo.com site simultaneously and Note actually downloads faster half the time.

Finally-- The tablet that I wanted!

I loved my SM-T800, but the kind of love where you're willing to overlook little faults here and there (the small amounts of lag that people notice while others don't).
I switched over to the LTE version from Verizon a few days ago-- with the Snapdragon 800 SOC.
Lag is completely gone-- even in touchwiz (no I didn't sick with touchwiz, just wanted to confirm). Tapped Out plays perfectly. LTE reception is great. Scrolling through everything is so smooth!
$600 is expensive for any tablet; but through some lucky breaks, I paid around $350 for my non-LTE version, not including a free book cover that Best Buy threw in. I ended up selling the tablet for about $430, and I kept the cover! So net $530 for the LTE tab and cover.
If you're on the fence about this device because of some of the comments on here, I can tell you most of the complaints are rectified in the Sprint/ Verizon version.

My experience exactly. Had the Wifi 10.5, and it sucked, frankly. The Verizon LTE version is awesome.

Yeah that's what I was afraid of. They really gave the wifi version the shaft with their horrible exynos experiment.
I have a Galaxy S5 with the snapdragon and it's blazing fast, while my wifi Tab S is laggy and slow as hell.

No surprise there, Exynos lags behind the Snapdragon variant as usual. No pun intended.

Sure it has snapdragon?
Most likely improvements are just because of some software update.

i have been waiting for the Verizon version for some time and got excited when i saw it available BUT then sad when i saw it was only the 16GB version which doesnt work for me. also didnt want white but could deal with that. hoping maybe a 32GB version at some point but doubtful

I purchased the wifi 16. Returned it for the 32. Got refunded for that one and purchased the Sprint version with snapdragon. It just seems to be smoother and faster than the previous wifi only tabs. Both of my wifi units just did weird things. Ex., I would press the home key and it would send me off to google or some place unknown to my home screen. If I kept pressing the home button I would eventually get there, never did figure that one out. My other ones lagged every now and then but this didn't really bother me, I'm a patient man. I just wanted mobile data, however infrequently I will use it, but I'm glad it is there.

As stated many times, the Exynos SOC is really really bad.

long story short, who ever has the opportunitiy of buying Verizon Tab S Snapdragon 800 should go towards that direction and not the Exynos one...thanks guys i was thinking of buying with Exynos in Europe but i see that it has problems, weird is that sites seem to bypass those problems rather easily

Any evidence?
Most likely it is just software issue.
Anyway, I don't see any lag on my T705 Exynos tab.

Any development for the snapdragon version?

Afternoon all now firstly this is not an add Ian in no way affiliated.
I tried out a program call L Speed found on the play store and after applying some settings my phone feels new again very snappy, antutus 3d section has never worked for me but after using this program it now works, don't know why but it does. Give it a try and see what you think.

One of the kernel modifiers that works by altering setting in RAM. You can get improvements for sure but be careful.
I used to run a kernel modding app in KitKat ROM but now on Lollipop the phone runs nice without it so I don't use a kernel tuning app anymore.
I have Xposed but even then, only a minimal number of modules. You can create an unstable device by these types of mods.

Can you tell us which settings exactly you have in L Speed? A screenshot would be enough because when I tried it I didn't see any improvement

I'm probably as big of a skeptic as you get when it comes to these miracle "speed up your phone now!" kind of apps, but hear me out:
I installed this after it popped up whilst lazily scrolling through the Play Store. I remembered reading a post title about it somewhere and figured I might as well laugh at the massive scam when it starts asking for IAPs or something.
But wow, it really helps. I mean it has only been running for about 30 minutes, so I can't say much for the battery life improvements etc, but here's what has noticeably improved thus far:
- "Smoothness": Enabling the UI tweaks rewarded me with buttery smooth scrolling, window switching, even SwiftKey (which, whilst being a great keyboard for a multi-lingual, has always fallen behind others in terms of smoothness) is now on IOS levels of responsive, for now. I'm running 5.1.1 (B324), which is already a massive improvement over the choppy mess that was 4.4.4, but this made animation smoothness on-par with the latest flagships.
- App loading times: Vastly improved. The HAM7 isn't bad at this, but not exactly great either. I'm assuming it's the IO tweaks that 'fixes' this, as app loading times are way quicker. Even the app switching window, which is notoriously slow to load up on the HAM7, opens up very hastily (not instantly, but MUCH faster than usual), even when you have 3-5 pages of apps open. Hell, even the camera doesn't waste time opening.
And perhaps the most impressive improvement: Faster streaming. I know, this sounds like snake-oil, right? Wrong. I live in East Africa, our internet here is horrifically slow compared to European countries (my company has a 7mb/s line, which is one of the fastest lines available in our area). Streaming a video in 1080p is something one can only dream of. I took a quick look at YouTube, ramping the quality up to 1080p, and it plays! I mean I still have to leave it for around ten seconds to buffer a little, but after that I'm golden. I'm baffled, I honestly don't want to believe it, but yet it's happening right before my eyes. I will test this on other streaming services (Netflix and ShowBox) later and update this post with my findings.
So there you go. A totally skeptical non-believer converted in 30 minutes. I can't tell you how this works, all I can say is that it does, at least in my case. The HAM7 running 5.1.1 really isn't bad in terms of every day performance, but this makes it a lot more bearable (I hate EMUI).
I'll update this post with further findings tomorrow.

Lots of factors affect it. Rooting and modding can slow it down, for instance I can assure you installing ViPER4Android will slow it down, but sounds oh so good.

Don't use viper. But yes depending on the amount of apps etc does affect it. Using always on display now and love it and not really much of a battery hog, I love coming back to my phone and don't even touch it just glance to see if I have missed anything.
