[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] solsearch:
Different generations of snapdragons have different possible speeds due to the manufacturing technique etc. (65nm vs. 45nm or whatever). I forget which of the many sites had this info as I investigate VERY thoroughly. As shown Qualcomm shows the Flyer as one of their chipsets ausing the Adreno 205 GPU and vellamo states the min. frequency of the CPU as 245mhz and 1497mhz as the max. (along with lots of other details which are unnecessary).
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Farsquidge:
Thanks, keep searching. We want to see definite HTC device specs for the processor.

I know the Qualcomm site shows the Flyer as an example of the 8255 but this could just be at the request of HTC until they decide to disclose on Oct 19.

I want to assure everyone that I am in no way wanting to find anything negative to use, I am just hoping we get an early Xmas present with the disclosure of a subdued core when Honeycomb is OTA.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
That's exactly how the system self is configured. So, why all this questions?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tommyz2kool:
So you're still thinking that the flyer has a dual core chip? LOL.

When a core from a multicore chip is disabled, it cannot be reenabled because the traces are physically cut. So it makes no sense to pay for a more expensive DC part and disable one of the cores.

The simple answer to your conspiracy theory is that HTC went for the 1.5ghz single core part vs DC in the flyer/view because its cheaper and outperforms DC with the version of android that it ships with.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Farsquidge:
Can you show a Flyer component list from HTC to give the actual part number?

If not, then there is nothing wrong with my speculation.

I will be more than happy when someone does just to clear this up either way.

I never said a core was disabled, MAYBE subdued yes.

I have never said it is a conspiracy I have only listed logical questions with valid data.

I am just asking for SOLID evidence of what processor it is from a HTC verified documentation source.

So does LOL mean 'laid out logically'?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] intersectRaven:
According to Wikipedia, the Flyer uses a single core Snapdragon which seems to be an improved version, 8255T, although this may not be based on actual releases by HTC since there's no citation. There are however citations for the chip's existence for the phones which actually use this like the S2 mini and the S+.

(I was actually hoping that it's a dual core as well but seems we have to wait a bit more for that. :( )
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kentamayo:
Hi there! We met this afternoon hehe..

So that means that there is a possibility that this isn't a DC chip with a subdued core? I guess the only way to find out is to wait for HTC to come clean eh? Bummer :(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tommyz2kool:
First of all, what the heck is a "subdued" core? Can you give any examples of a multicore part that had a core "subdued."

I'm sure you won't be able to provide any examples because no such thing exists. Cores are physically disabled because that's the only way to prevent it from being enabled through software.

Your questions are not logical at all. All data point to the part being used is an overclocked MSM8655. No data exists to contradict that.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] intersectRaven:
Yeah. After reading everything about it on this thread and others, at this point I'm looking at it as a non-overclocked, new part which is the 8255T. :(

It's not possible for a manufacturer to release an overclocked device since overclocking won't be supported by the chip manufacturer so warranty would fall solely on HTC. It MAY be possible that this is a dual core chip with the other chip disabled by Qualcomm itself in order to get more from faulty DC yields but then even if we can enable the other core, there's a chance for it to be faulty. But then, the Adreno 205 on it makes this unlikely as all the DC parts Qualcomm makes seem to be Adreno 220 already.

All in all I'd say this case is closed and I'll be waiting for further developments with regards to Android tablets with Scorpion cores. :)

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeareN:
First of all, I would like to thank in advance the guys who answer my questions.

1)I ve read some threads about Xoom and I see most of you are in 3.2 and in Europe we don't have even 3.1 . How can I make it to be a US version to get the updates? Is it safe or should I wait?

2)My first priority is to find a way to root my device. I saw a one-click root way but the files are offline from xda and it says that it has issues with EUR versions. Whats your advice? Can you help me with the steps because I dont have much android knowledge?

3)Whats your opinion about custom roms for Xoom and how can I flash from 3.01?

Thanks again, and if you have any suggestions on what apps you love using in your xoom it would be great :)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
Apps go the apps section and read.

Changing to us version and flashing roms etc go to the development section and read.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeareN:
You clearly don't like to chat m8, If I found a topic for EUR but the links are offline as I said before. There are people who like to share their knowledge thats why its a q/a thread and not app section or dev section.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Hi there, welcome to the Xoom family.

Like every family, some members like to talk and others don't.

It's true that the threads you want are mostly in the Development section.

Since you are on Wifi only it should be pretty easy for you to flash the US wifi image (you will actually find that in the 1st post in General) but you should read a bit just to make sure you know what steps to take. Also, language packs are available if you need a language other than English, French or Spanish, but there may be some complications.

I would advise you against using any type of one click rooting method. The Xoom is easy to unlock and root, but is more complicated than many phones. On the plus side, it's pretty hard to brick as long as you follow instructions. Prepare to use adb and you'll do fine. Once you've unlocked and flashed the US image, you will get the OTA updates as soon as you are on a wifi connection. This is where you need to see which rooting method will be best for you. You will need to install the Tiamat Clockwork Mod Recovery 3.2.0.0 (from solarnz's thread) so you can flash from the micro sdcard) There are ways to root from 3.0, 3.1 and from 3.2. Head over to the Development section and look for what you want. Once you are rooted, check out the Team Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.0 Manta Ray. It really rocks. You will have to wipe user data for many of these steps, so don't bother with setting up more than you have to until you are at you final destination, so to speak.

Good luck!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] gobluewolverines4:
The CNN app works beautifully with the transformer, but with ad free installed and being used, CNN video doesn't work (saying you need an internet connection) which I clearly have. Any work arounds?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] decepticon:
No, reason being is that before any video runs it plays an ad but ad blockers prevent the ad from connecting to the host thus the app thinks it's not online.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imbamanul:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S I9000 model like the ones from the stores that is only for presentation and has only a mini-usb cable connectivity for storing the presentation video that you see in the stores. When i plug it in, the computer sees it like a flash drive with 391 MB available space.

I have it from a friend that was stupid enough to delete the file that allready was there and now i don't know if that file must have a certain name or extension or if it can play other files.

If anyone knows something about this please help me out.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typci:
I have to use a custom rom for a couple of reasons:

1) My stock rom is the Chinese verison, which means no google apps or google sync. Without google, it's just not android.

2) I need the Chinese input methods. I would normally switch to the USA stock rom, but it doesn't have Chinese input. Prime does/did, Chinese handwriting input is MIA, but I'll sure it will be taken care of.

I choose to use a custom rom for these reasons:

3) I don't like excess crap on my computer. I can modify a custom rom before I install it, mostly just removing apps that I will never use.

4) Root! I love freedom on my computer. Root lets me do things. All kinds of neat things: block ads, increase speed on sd card, delete/modify system apps and directories, and lots more. Look into it, it is fun.

5) Overclock. Prime doesn't have it, but you can add a kernal that does. I currently don't overclock, but as the Tegra 2 ages, i will overclock it. I'm specifically waiting for a rom with a high GPU overclock. There is one out there that currently does have a minor GPU overclock.

6) Clockwork Recovery. Backup, restore, switch roms, clear cache and more.

Why I choose Prime:

7) Dock battery meter in the taskbar.

8) Reboot/recovery options for power button.

After looking through the current selection of roms available, I choose Prime. But I keep my eye on revolver and Clemsyn.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
How do you not? OP clearly states that there are optimizations made to increase load times etc etc.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloadmire:
No, op states "better user experience" which is very vague. Also I'm not having any slow load times, everything is pretty zippy.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ageesm:
Last time I flashed a Tom he punched me in the face...:p

One reason I haven't seen mentioned would also be themes, but it is still early in the game, there are few options. Custom Roms are generally just optimized better, though the Transformer doesn't have nearly the bloat some Android devices have making them almost essential...

Honestly once you learn, it is such an easy process that flashing different roms/kernels and trying them is the only real way to know what is best for you and your usage.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Then why are you worrying about ROMs? It's obvious you want some of that Baconcomb so just get it already.

Honestly, I don't know why people ever need to "beg" you to try something. If you're happy with what you got already, then be happy.

"If it isn't broken, don't fix it"

If you're curious, then just do it... because all in honesty. One person's opinion is only a opinion. The only way you're going to know if it's worth it is from YOUR personal experience. I can personally say that, PRIME 1.6 and root is good and its worth it.

If you don't want to take my word for it, then don't. I'm not going to beg you to do it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloadmire:
The reason im asking is so i dont miss out on anything and obviously im looking for empiracle data to help me understand any performance benefits.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spd2Last:
Wow...

He asked what was the difference between stock and Prime, and you went off in another direction. He wasn't asking to be "begged" into using Prime nor asking for others to convince him into using Prime at all.

Anyways, I know Prime has a few optimizations, but I don't know if it brings any substantial changes. There's a link to download the power/recovery mod, so I suppose it could be applied to any ROM including rooted stock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazfar13:
One reason I would like to root my tf101 is to be able to use a USB dongle. But I am waiting for 3.2 to come out before since I just got my tf101.

The stock version is pretty good actually. No major complaints so far. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q.Entity:
I hav ebeen using Prime for a while but ASUS stock version is definitely quite good. Even more so for lack of garbageware that so plagues the mobile phones...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dissenter:
Yea I guess I'm in the same camp. I haven't seen a compelling reason to move to a different ROM versus rooted stock. There are too many posts that seem to lead users to believe that a different ROM is the same as root. Remember you can root the stock ROM. The OP is asking what user experience enhancements make Prime (or any other ROM) compelling.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aligatro2010:
If you read changelog second post it will tell you exactly what's new in the ROM. Many changes are only useful for experienced linux users, but many others are useful for everyone. The nice thing about roms is that most of the things and tweaks are already done for you. If you don't need/care about those changes then there is no point for you to reflash.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4rmk:
Manufacturer's (ASUS included) have to be very careful about their ROM releases so they are thoroughly tested and ready to release to the general public. Consequently they are slower to release updates (i.e. NVidia updates, etc.). Custom ROMs generally consolidate the best and latest releases from various manufacturer's into the most cuttest edge versions you can possibly be running. As you'll notice this can also mean more lock-ups and weird issues since you are getting just-available changes. So if you prefer max stability, stick with the manufacturer's updates. For many of us part of the fun of owning an Android tablet is the rapid pace that custom ROMs are put out and the interesting/quirky things they bring us.

Prime Vs Stock

Reason why I flashed the Prime Rom. With Prime and a netflix patch I'm able to stream netflix movie. Also now Adhoc connections work. I can Wifi tehther my TF101 with my Driod using the adhoc connection. I can now easily reboot into recovery prior to this going into recovery was a bit tricky. This was not possible even with HC 3.2. Also I don't have to worry about losing root becuase of an OTA update.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
I am actually a flashaholic when it comes to flashing roms on my phone. But so far, I haven't come across any compelling reasons to flash custom roms on my transformer. The need to flash roms on phones offer benefits that are non existant on a tablet. For instance, one major reason to flash custom roms on phones is to enable free wifi tethering, which obviously does not apply here. Another reason, as stated above is to remove bloatware. The transformer doesn't really have that. And yet another reason is to be able to update to the latest Android version before the official release. Correct me if i'm wrong but when I looked, the 3.2 update came out officially before any transformer custom roms had it. There are a couple more minor customizations options that I'm not seeing yet being offered by the transformer roms. I am fully aware of the speed enhancements and optimizations that custom roms offer, but considering the custom roms for the transformer are still relatively new (no disrespect or discredit to the devs for their hard work), and considering that even still now, the rooting and flashing methods keep getting outdated and changed, it's too early in this ballgame for me to flash.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digitaldreamer7:
I've been lurking the forums here now for a month and finally pulled the trigger, my TF get's here monday.

I have yet to see any reason to flash a custom rom or even root at this point. I'll be rooting it just to say it's rooted and just for a couple of root only programs I have. The custom roms don't really bring anything to the table that this tablet doesn't have. it has the newest version of android with all the bells and whistles. I'm not going to be overclocking. I understand netflix is big for some people, but, from what I have read flashing the fix breaks some video playback. I'm ok to wait for the official netflix patch. A 32gb MicroSD and the 16gb on board space is plenty to store movies on for travel etc. I also have a server I run at home that will stream my entire movie,. TV, and music collections directly to me.

I flashed my vibrant from bionix 1.3.1 with touchwiz to the CM7 just to see what was on CM7, the problem i'm running into now is that i'm trying to flash it back to bionix until CM7 becomes stable. It now states the following:

Amend scripting (update-script)is no longer supported

Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5

It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.

Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.

Installation aborted.

As far as i know, i researched the problem and the problem i believe has to concern with the way CM7 and the recovery work with scripting.

I just want to know how to get back to bionix, i'm relatively new to this flashing and stuff so i would like a detailed description, even maybe a step by step answer but at this point any answer would work.
