Will be ICS in x8 or it is impossible ??? i think original no any cyanogen
[XPERIA X8 General] codfreak:
Why not?

Maybe with a custom Kernel...

If you go into manage applications in your settings, the "all" tab, scroll down to text messaging. Click on that, scroll down to find a button that says clear defaults. Click that. Now Handcent will open by default and not the stock text messaging.

And 4,65" Display? Too big, 4,3" should be the biggest display a smartphone should have.

That's why the Samsung Galaxy Note will be fail, it's just too big for a mobilephone and too small for a tablet.

And yes, it's just a stupid rumor, so nothing of these things will be in a phone the next time. Quad Core maybe 2012, but not this year.

oddly enough, eldar murtazin's tweet says the specs are real. Not sure what to make of it but he did describe a nexus like device way back when galaxy s2 was released and he's been pretty accurate on rumors including nokia/MS partnership
[Android General] AllGamer:
Quad Cores will not fly well with phone sizes batteries

on Tablets Quad Cores are do-able because they can get away with the weight and larger battery packs

but on a phone, it's wasted, as the battery will drain out in a matter of minutes

you wont get more than 4 hours of straight usage, on a phone

example when playing HD 3D games, that sucks the juice out of phones in no time
[Android General] Barry (NJ):
Sorry but you're wrong, I won't go less than a 5" screen ever again.
[Android General] narta:
I think that the die shrink will help with the battery requirements. A 4core 28nm die SoC will have less energy requirements than the current 45nm SoC.
[Android General] aohus:
just because you have more cores, doesn't mean it will be sucking more battery life. In fact, it would be the other way around. That means less cores are reaching its maximum voltage. Also, quad core is on a 28nm die. Thats much smaller than 32nm, 40nm+ dies of smartphone SoC's in the past.
[Android General] Mcds:

[Android General] HappyAngelGames:
2 Ghz Quad core? O.o

I don't think the battery will last long on a quad core device. anyway, it would be still great if this is true :)
[Android General] aohus:
i think XDA should do a write up on the benefits of added cores. Seems like theres a lot of misconception in the idea that more cores = more battery consumption, when its the exact opposite.

More cores does not equate to higher battery consumption. In fact, a quad core die will be on a 28nm chip, thus utilizing less heat. More cores means that the CPU can handle multiple tasks without having to increase voltage at its maximum.
[Android General] tjtj4444:
It is not the exact opposite, especially not in practice, the explanation from the dual/quad core SOC manufacturers are very best case scenarios.

Many factors are forgotten in those explanations:

some examples:

*larger die size causes larger leakage currents

*Games (and other similar loads) will run faster instead of more power efficient, this is not bad but it doesn't decrease power consumption.

*Are there any indications that phones with dual core processors available today uses less power than similar single core phones?

*Quad core CPU are not common in laptops due to high power draw...

* etc

I'm not saying that dual/quad core are bad, but I don't believe that they save power in practice. And I do own a Galaxy S2 and I get decent battery time.
[Android General] AllGamer:
This is exactly what i was referring to, and this is some one who knows what he's talking about.

naturally, anyone wanting more core, wants to have more power, more speed, more OC (yes more OverClock), to play their games/videos/surf the net, etc at top speed

else there wouldn't be much point in upgrading to a next best thing,

so, although the idea is right, it could potentially save power with more cores, the real life scenario doesn't reflect the philosophy behind the design scenarios :D

[Android General] amit14:
Forget XDA it happens every where.......Apple Vs Android on almost all tech forums or youtube video etc
[Android General] kurolife:
all those specs sounds fake and illogical and I'll explane my self.

1-There is no quad core Exynos planned for next year, the next gen would be an upgrade for the current generation with better gpu and probably a higher clock.

The only quadcore coming next year would is Tegra 3 which has a max frequency of 1.5ghz if one core is used 1.4ghz if all cores are used.

The only next gen to possibly clock at 2.0ghz and higher stock would be the Qualcomm S4 aka krait, which is annouced for now at 1.7ghz stock and next year we will only get the the dual core variation (MSM8960) the 3 first quaters at least.

So from a SoC stand point it is impossible.

Now from the screen stand point, considering that Samsung just managed to move on to 720p resolution SAMOLED screens and coudn't even get the + variantion to that resolution yet I doubt we will see any further bump on resolution on devices under 4.5" displays not only that, but 720p is not even a standard yet for android smartphones (apps for instance), and most importantly does ICS support higher resolution on such small screens ?

For the rest sounds a logic upgrade.

If we are talking about the usual Q2 annoucement for SGS devices those specs are more likely to be fake, and fact they are fake considering the stat of things right now, if it is about Q4 2012 beginning of 2013 they might be more logical but around that time we might be talking about Jellybeam ...
[Android General] Bawezy:
Samsung will push the release to the next quarter as they always do. The Exynos 4212's implementation on the GS3 during the periods of Q3 is definitely possible with ARM's new introduction to big.LITTLE processing feature. But i'm sorry to say that the screen resolution will go no further than 720p, and we'll possibly whitness the distinctive AMOLED plus again.
[Android General] sooyong94:
AFAIK there's an Exynos 5250 SoC.

Quad-Core Cortex A15 goodness.
[Android General] megazeroxuxm:
Here's probably something more probable. 1.2-1.5 ghz quad core ARM processor (same as cotton candy) 1gb ram, 4.3-4.5 Super AMOLED Plus HD, ICS or better, No more buttons, Screen size fit to actual phone size, with the exception of top and bottom, ultra thin, JBL/KEF/M-Audio some outrageous sound quality stuff lolol, 1080p 3D 120fps recording, 3D pictures, can run ubuntu! had to throw that last one in there hehe

[Android General] lovenokia:
after this point the whole "more cores" thins has to stop this PHONE destroys almost every computer in my house in specs it is becoming ridiculous
[Android General] :
Samsung initially showed 4212 - upgraded version of 4210. Same Mali-400 GPU running at 466 Mhz. Then we started hearing about 5250 - the A15 architecture. Yesterday, I saw the first news about 4412. Quad-core A9 SoC.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kern...it;h=e6a275a8f92392f27e3accd6182d52627ef37258

My "guess" at this time would be either 4412 or 5250 for SIII. It definitely not going to be 4212. That they are sampling to external customers now.
[Android General] adyroman:
Do we really need more than 2 cores in a smartphone?
[Android General] kurolife:
Indeed there is,It is annouced for 2013-2014, not only that, the frequencies does not match at all.

Even the Exynos4212 is annouced for middle 2012 as explaned in my comment before

Samsung also have a back up strategy if they fall behind competition one is to use the big-little configuration but that not gonna happen till the end of 2012 begining of 2013 and we might see a quadcore configuration of the current Exynos, but that would definitly have equal or lower frequency than the 4212 but I doubt Samsung will decline their factory to different SoCs so unless they acquire/built a new factory i don't see them going with different variantions of their SoC especially if they can't even manage to fully supply their own devices

On a side not The first A15 SoC would probably be the Omap5 I believe

[Android General] Aphorism:
This is horrible. At the rate some gossips are spreading rumours, we will have 32-cores by 2014. I do wish all this phone development and "improvement" would stop. Companies are going to kill smartphones when people realise it is of no use having a super-fast tiny object. HOW ABOUT IMPROVING NOTEBOOKS (digital kind)? Bring it, awkward tablets. Nothing is still going to compare to a large physical keyboard and a large screen.
[Android General] jimbo.levy:

[Android General] Kailkti:
Well that's not up for samsung, qualcomm, nvidia or texas to get into. Why get into a world that is practically dominated by intel? It would actually be very hard I imagine and really, not a econimically feasible action.

Point being, you're asking the wrong people here.

More or less though, we still don't need that stuff. A core i7 3960x is more than enough for any user. (Anyone here stil using a core 2 duo or pentium? Works don't it?) And it will be for another 3-8 yrs. Why? Cause software moves at a slower pace than hardware.
[Android General] darasz89:
I agree with those who think that more that 2 cores is bad idea ...

just look: about 80% of the market is made by 1 core smartphones and those devices should be supported

I think that 2 cores idea is OK - faster web browsing etc

but we must remember that power consumption od these CPU are much larger and better battery is needed ;)

in the end I wish Samsung that SGS3 was as good as SGS2 :)
[Android General] Jim Millerick:
Things I'd like on the SGSIII

I love the ET4G but am serioulsy looking forward to the S3.

Things I would appreciate for an upgrade -

Higher res screen

Perhaps a 4.65" screen

Better signal quality for data (EVO 3D gets better speeds - same location/provider)

No LOS

better battery life will always be wanted even if it got 10 hours of talk time :)

Updated VLINGO/less glitchy

---------- Post added at 10:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 AM ----------

I do hope that Verizon gets the SIII about the same time as it becomes available on the GSM carriers. I'm not interested in any more Sprint phones as I feel the need for speed. I'd love to see all phones come out with all bands so there isn't a need to wait between GSM and CDMA phones. WOuld be much better for travelling abroad.
[Android General] devius:
2 cores are enough, we need more battery life and multimedia specs. More usefull apps, and compatibility with other gadgets.
[Android General] lilmoe2002:
didn't hear/read about Sandy Bridge E till i read your post... WOW, did you see how much juice you could squeeze out of that chip?? check it out on passmark.

i'm SOOO glad i waited before upgrading my core2due laptop!! can't wait to couple that baby with an SSD :D

now THAT should give great improvement for laptops, and hopefully much better battery life too.

anyway, back to topic...

SGS3 with quadcore cortex a9?? naaaah.... i wouldn't want that either, i'd rather have a dual core a9/a15 PLUS a dual core a7 (for lower power smaller process demands, and BETTER battery life) for a

TOTAL

of 4 cores, coupled with a dual/quad core mali t604 gpu (which supposedly shuts down unused cores for better battery life, and improves performance while fixing the shader issue of it's predecessor)

who minds horsepower? but hopefully that wouldn't have any health side-effects when placed next to your brain cells... :S
[Android General] adelmundo:

I'm thinking it's going to be the Exynos 4412 at 1.5ghz with the Mali T604. It's a really good combination on paper and a 32nm quad at 1.5ghz isn't going to nom-nom it's way through battery(ies) as much as one might think. Besides that, hopefully it has 2GB of RAM because from the way it seems, applications that can take advantage of quad-core will benefit from the extra memory. One last thing, here's to hoping TW4 doesn't suck.

That's just an os they are using for a phone, not named yet and unlikely to be for s3.
