Mjamocha - 1 more quick question... how have you got a 64Gb SD card in your Xoom??? I thought 32Gb was the max??:confused:
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muffycheeks:
I bought a 64g San Disk card and formatted it. After installing it in my xoom it read RAW at 26mb!!! Then it crashed altogether, so I'm sending it back to sand disk. Others have reported it working for them but it didn't for me.

That is odd -

Format your SDcard in your smart phone FIRST, check it to make sure it was formatted correctly, then with your Xoom turned off - place the freshly formatted sdcard in the Xoom sd slot. Turn ur device on, go to setting BAM - should say something like 59.67GB. If not, then you have a faulty card return it.

:D

So i restored back to stock blur rom cuz i was feeling all nostalgic :D and to get a few TB backups. Well when i attempted to restore back to CM9 i kept getting "MD5 Mismatch!" errors. Well it turns out I had left spaces in that and a few other renamed backup folders which apparently is a no-no. :eek: Luckily i was able to restore back to another backup, rename the folders without spaces via USB and was able to restore CM9 backups. Just thought this may help others. You might want to check your backup file folder names and get rid of the spaces.

Well I've never thought of renaming then but either way this is good to know for future reference

Dual core most people will tell you quadcore is faster than dual core this is false. Just because you have two more of something doesn't mean anything if you can not use it properly. This is why tegra 3 as you see gets beat by Qualcomm krait (dual core) and Ti omap 5 (dual core). Its not about how many cores its about efficiency. Nvidia pretty much doesn't know what they are doing still in the phone market.
[General Questions and Answers] T__:
Quad core on a phone is not required imo.

I would stick with a dual core (My Galaxy SII has never given me any trouble) - quad core is pricy and no real need for it at present. But you can always do a future investment since you will eventually want a quad core.

I am personally waiting till my quad core phones drop in price and are required.

The thing is, the HTC One X in the UK can be brought for £28.50 a month - I would have to pay more than that for the Galaxy Nexus. Quad core phones are no more expensive to buy than dual core - phone manufacturers realise that at present, they simply don't have a market for constant £41 on free prices.
[General Questions and Answers] Killbynature:
For the people who say quad core means less battery are wrong. Nvidia is still using

A9 architecture and 40 mn. Ti omap5, exynos (5, something), Krait, all beat tegra 3 quad core technology. Ti omap 5 and krait are using 28mn and exynos supposedly using 32mn. All of these processors are a15 which pretty much destroys nvidia a9 architecture. They also use less power voltage and completing the same task. Compared to tegra 3.
[General Questions and Answers] KayxGee1:
Quad core is pointless if you don't have the battery to back it up. The Razr Maxx has a 3,300mAh battery. That should have been available a long time ago.

This is all fun and well, but the battery is the most important part and need to be worked on more.

Well a great example of this situation can be:

2. In PCs i3 sandy birdge outperforms old amd phenom x4 and athlon x4 processors which are quadcores when i3 is just a dual core...

so i think it depend on the technology and whether that dual core has multiple threads for each core...
[General Questions and Answers] mike21pr:
Gimme a break... Its the single vs dual core debate all over again. Is dual core enough? Sure, just like single core was back then, but denying that cuad core is where this market is heading and sticking to dual core just because its "good enough" is kinda funny. Now I understand choosing a dual core A15 vs a cuad core A9, but what happens when a cuad core A15 is released later this year? Tegra 3 was to market first thus not at its full glory as future cuads will be, but when manufacturers make a up to date quad, its gonna make dual core cpus look like crap. Apps and games will sure to follow, but I rather have extra horsepower even if i dont need it than "just enough" and wish i had more later on

Just my 2 cents

[General Questions and Answers] LostLoon151:
for now, i think dual core will be enough. especially since the question from the OP stated that he's not that into gaming.

for a phone, i'd stick with dual core, for another year or so. give some time for the OS and the battery to catch up with processors, and the usefulness of a quad core will be more obvious.

ultimately, like it's been said before, most of the decision will come down to, what do you plan on using your phone for, and how much access do you have to a charger, to keep your phone going, throughout the day.

i've been looking to upgrade my phone, and having seen what's out there, and what's coming out quickly, i'll stick to dual core, or hold off my upgrade, until it's more feasible for quad core.

i do minimal gaming, but sometimes, it'd be really nice to have some extra power. though, i have access and time to charge my phone fairly often

A mobile phone is a tool - not only a toy.

From my point of view there are very different and usefull things we can do with it. The most unimportant is gaming.

I really don't want to charge battery once a day. And if that can be achieved with single core cpu then I want single core.

There's a pretty easy solution, buy a Padfone. 9 times a 1500 mAh battery with both accessories, and the Krait chip uses half the battery power of the Tegra 3 to do double the work.
[General Questions and Answers] sreza:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5563/qualcomms-snapdragon-s4-krait-vs-nvidias-tegra-3

Krait is better on every test, save equal on browsermarks, 50% faster on OS operations. 28 nm build means it'll do all that at at least 40% less battery cost than Tegra 3. It also has an integrated LTE modem, saving even more power. Tegra's ninja core is not a good feature, it'll require separate optimization on the app side of things to work right, and the dynamic voltage on Krait gives an equivalent effect regardless.

See my other thread on this topic: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1579299

[General Questions and Answers] sreza:
In a perfect world where every app is optimized for quad-cores, it would be true that Tegra 3 wins in power. But as far as I know, the only apps optimized for quad-core right now are the browser (where you can't have multiple windows onscreen at once), and that one game Nvidia made to show off their new chip. Considering how few pc programs need quad-core, and that they've had it for much longer than the mobile market, I don't really see the purpose of the extra 2 cores at all. With those circumstances taken into account, I feel confident in stating that having a SoC with 2 strong cores will always give a better user experience than 4 weak cores that happen to have higher benchmark scores, unless there's a massive fundamental shift in the Android world, like something comparative to Apple's Grand Central Dispatch.

And even then, given Android's massive fragmentation, won't app developers want to write to the lowest common denominator to sell to the biggest user base? What ratio of the consumers will actually buy a quad-core set? How long will it take for quad-cores to inundate the field enough to make it worth it to develop an app that takes full advantage of all the cores, sacrificing the potential to sell to inferior devices? Again, we can look to the history of the pc market to see the future of the mobile market. Only the ultra-high res hard-core gamers use anything higher than a dual-core and actually take advantage of the full power of their device. And if I want to play Skyrim or Crysis 2 or (insert AAA-title here), I certainly wouldn't want to play it on a phone for crying out loud!

The way I see it, Nvidia is trying to convince us that we need a product that isn't even common on the average pc yet. I agree with everyone who loves the idea of having so much power in your pocket, the tech geek in me thinks it sounds fantastic! But at the end of the day, I'm forced to confront the reality that it'll be just like tricking out my car with a nitro tank(tegra 3) versus investing in an engine with better mileage, a larger gas tank, a better transmission, a better GPS, a better security system, or hell, even leather seats! What's the point of a nitro tank if every road has speed limits? Until the mobile world has an Autobahn, getting a quad-core amounts to bragging rights, not a better user experience.

[General Questions and Answers] sreza:
"dual-core" Tegra 3 as I describe the user experience of Tegra 3 to be on the Prime is still a 1.5 GHz A9 chipset, compared to the Tegra 2 that came before it, which was 1.0 Ghz, it is smoother and an all-around better experience. This isn't a comparison between a bad core and a good core. It's comparing a nice core (Tegra 3) and a better core (Krait).
[General Questions and Answers] The Dogan:
I think what a lot of people really want to say is if the choice is the S4 or Tegra 3 you should go with the S4 because Tegra 3 pales in comparison.

When Qualcomm get their own quadcore S4 chips out and Samsung get theirs out it will be a different story. Most likely their quadcore chips will be worth buying over their dualcore's.

As much as I want to favour Nvidia here the Tegra 3 is inadequate compared to the new stuff.
[General Questions and Answers] ray3andrei:
Idk what you still have to argue with... tegra 3 HAS MORE POWER but it doesn't get used... while the krait uses all of it.. which results in fact a better experience..... this is the limitation of android.

Cores vs Performance

No of cores as also other specifications mean nothing or little. Performance evaluation is more related to architecture efficiency of the whole CPU rather that the number of cores or frequency. Intel Medfield is the best example of this on an entirely difference instruction set cisc x86 vs risc based ARM.
[General Questions and Answers] sreza:
Almost correct: Android the OS is optimized for multiple cores as of the release of ICS. It's the apps that aren't optimized for multiple cores, and are unlikely to see more than a 10% gain in their user experience from becoming optimized (Krait gives 100% more gain compared to Tegra 3 without optimization, and will see the same 10% gain from optimization as the Tegra 3 regardless), and the vast majority of apps are unlikely to ever push the Tegra 3 to its limits even if they ever get optimized either, a highly unlikely scenario.

But apart from that minor detail your post is correct. I've been trying to spread the facts all week now. I've seen so many "Quad-core is future-proof!" "Quad-core gives more power!" "Dual-core to save battery power even though it must be weaker!" posts everywhere, and the sheer ignorance of the community frustrates me to no end.

Judging by my thanks meter, I've at least managed to show some people the truth of the matter. It makes me feel a little hope for humanity. ^_^
