A7000 ROM on A6000? - Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers

So, I was just wondering.
Both have the same CPUs, same GPUs even.
The differiences are RAM size, CPU cores, clock speeds, and chipsets.
So, would it be possible to port a ROM, or to even just install a ROM? (with edited updater-script to match product name, of course.)

Oh, turns out I was wrong about the GPU, not that it matters when porting though.
Anyway, CPUs, yeah, but use the Cortex-A53 ARM CPU. (But the A7000 performs with the CPU better because the A7000 has a better performing chipset.)

Forget about porting a7k ROMs to a6k.
Unless you want bricked device.

Overclocking the ULP in the Tegra 2 SoC?

Just looking on Wiki on the Tegra 2 section and noticed that there's 4 models of the Tegra 2, with the OX2 running lowest clocked version.
Our ULP GPU is clocked at 300Mhz but other versions in the same family have theres at 400Mhz.
Is there a kernal that allows GPU overclocking? Would be nice to get a 1.2-1.4Ghz CPU with a 400Mhz GPU..
old VorkKernel could do that... but it broke the camera

I would definately be interested in this myself as I already had a thread going asking about it. A total guess here, but I think the problem 'may' be in the voltage required to get it to 400mhz, rather than upping the mhz itself.
As I say I might be wrong! The Aandtech review of the O2X show's that it does in deed have 400Mhz memory, but only running @ 300Mhz. That just smacks of potential to me

On my old Acer Liquid Metal the last kernal I had supported overclockg on the adreno 205 GPU and let's just say that coupled with the new drivers that Qualcomm released and an overclock it was killing the PowerVR SGX540 in a lot of benchmark.
That must have been one hell of an overclock to achieve that!

Ask your kernel dev if he can help you
on horsepower 2x we can set the gpu frequency up to 350Mhz, i think it works...

Exynos Octa SM-G900H Benchmark, Geat, and Battery Life

There is still little information about the octa variant. No review about score and battery life.
So I was able to install antutu on demo unit. The score is high and the phone is not heating. All 8 cores can run together but Antutu reports the freq is 500-1300MHz and not recognize the cpu model name.
Please post your benchmark and battery life.

Damn. Exynos is consistently higher than the Snapdragon 801 in Antutu.
Only disappointment is the lack of LTE though(and ROMs too).
The new Exynos version come with new kind of fine-grained power management, overheating should be of the past and impossible.
Here's a benchmark video of the Exynos version.
It scores a chart topping 39029 on Antutu, that too without all the benchmark boosting involved!

Hi @AndreiLux,
Nice to see your comment, Do you confirm the S5 Exynos version? I mean we forget S4 I9500 problems and this new version has no problem? Thanks.

Samsung advertises "True Octa Core" capabilities with this device and this certainly means that Samsung is shipping the device with HMP enabled.
Does HMP offer better battery management over the previous implementations?

It comes with HMP but that's not what I'm talking about.
The device comes with something called ARM Intelligent Power Allocation (IPA) which is basically a very fine-grained power tracking and estimation thermal framework to control DVFS. The device is capped at 3.5W TDP between all CPUs and GPU, so it should never cause a heating overrun. And it seems that it doesn't affect performance given the videos.

I didn't mean that you mentioned about HMP in your earlier post. I just had a question about the battery performance of HMP.
Can you comment on that?
Thanks for this info. :beer:

I've read the opposite from other people such as the OP. All depends on firmware you had on your version. We'll see when somebody actually bothers to properly test it. I'm just stating what I see in the code.
@dragon135
The 5430 has a HEVC decoder, dedicated clock domain on the display interface, higher clocks in general, GPU at 600MHz (no info on core count but improvement is a possibility), and a new dedicated A5 co-processor for audio decoding and encoding called "Siren". The HEVC decoder alone is worth it imho since it provides good future-proofing of the device.

The 900H I tested ( i made a vid on that ) was hot as hell after 2 or 3 antutubench. Not sure as if it was the final version but my first impression on the Octa was really really impressed with fluidity and speed. However, if watch closely to my vid, u can see the octa will slightly slow down and get hot after a period of hesvy tasks. I wouldnt say it might be at that overheated but I can feel the temp while holding 2 different variants in hands. Well, let see how the octa performs in the future. I might get 1 final H version to test to but I want to get the M8 to test as too many guys claiming the M8 is way better than the S5 hehe.

Btw, the octa performed quite low in graphic test in my vid. I thought Mali would have performed way better than Snap version :/ kinda confused

The Adreno 330 is too fat. ARM promises performance improvements via drivers but we'll see if that'll happen or not.

5440 is in kernel sources.. never ever umderstood it..

[Question] Moto G 2014 Processor Model

So, i got curious and downloaded the "CPU z" application to have a look at my phones specs in detail. I found that my processor was the "4x ARM Cortex A7 @1.19Ghz". however the advertised processor is the "1.20GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400" now, is this just a pre-manufacturing model name and I'm just being stupid or is something fishy going on here?
Also i find it odd that the actual processor in my device is clocked at 1.19 when i in fact was under the idea that it's a 1.20 clock speed. I'm sure it wouldn't make that much difference but still seem odd?
could someone put my mind at rest and tell me that I'm just being an amateur and to go back into my android noobie cave or can someone confirm that in fact something fishy is going down.
thanks!

One plus 3 overclock to max possible power

Anyone is able to do a kernel ( possible based on cyanogenmod) with overclock support?
If is possible, add the maximum overclock on snapdragon 820...
This will get us more performance and higher benchmark

This +1000
This phone/CPU/GPU handles almost all content the Play Store can throw at it with ease. You may have slight FPS drops with the odd game, but you are not going to rewrite history gaining 4fps from a marginal over clock and even then you'd be better over clocking the GPU not the CPU anyway.
I agree with others. This obsession with Antutu scores is utterly pointless. And overclocks are a monumental waste of battery in the form of heat.
This obsession is almost as annoying as the folk that don't use any apps and wake their screen every now and then too increase screen on time, to then boast that they managed 12hours SOT.

That is false... The storage solution is what makes things Load quicker and what governor/io scheduler youre using. Over clocking is useless and trust me I know, I've over clocked every phone of mine until I realized all it does is cause instability, less battery life and more heating. The only viable over clocking is the GPU.

Unleashing The Snapdragon 820

Hey guys, i'm looking for a new phone, and i'm considering the 3/32 version of the mi5...the only thing i don't like is the Snapdragon 820 clocked at 1.8 instead of 2.15...and still have to figure out if the Adreno 530 is underclocked too...is there any possibility to unleash the full potential of this SoC?

wondering the same thing
It isn't possible now because Xiaomi hasn't released the Kernel sources yet. With kernel sources you can overclock it in theory but the base model Sd820 isn't the same as the one in the pro or prime mi5. It may not run stably on higher clocks.
Assuming you trust Mi5Devs, then this table shall say the difference:

So considering that table the only difference is the clock, since board codes are the same...anyway as long as i've read, there is very little chance that xiaomi is going to release the kernel sources before than Q1/Q2 of next year...am i right?

Assuming the 6-month-source-code-release-after-device-release cycle is consistent, then Mi5 source code might be released next month. So far, their Qualcomm devices always have source code released. Let's just hope for the best.
So, is it possible now?
32gb ver is underclocked and poor performance, thus not recommended to increase cpu speed
