Snapdragon 800 (MSM 8974)

[A.k.a. "Snapdragon S4 Prime"]

Qualcomm has already started to roll out samples for their new Snapdragon

flagship SoC's. Starting in mid 2013, we'll start seeing new devices running

their new dragons. Thus it is important that XDA developer can keep up-to-date

on this development so that we can be quick to "help" both Qualcomm and the

carriers using devices, to develop for these products. Just in case they think

they need to re-invent the wheel by locking up their bootloaders and so on...

Please feel free to add or correct info posted in this thread.

Everyone is Welcome! (Especially Qualcomm)

Again AnandTech provide us with some useful and correct information.

The New Snapdragons

The new Kraits will find their way in new Snapdragon platforms, now numbered

200, 400, 600 and 800 (the old S1 - S4 labels are gone). As always, higher

numbers mean better performance but you'll still need to rely on the internal

part numbers to know what's really inside.

Today Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 800, which implements four Krait 400

cores running at up to 2.3GHz, an Adreno 330 GPU and Qualcomm's 3rd generation

LTE baseband (9x25) all on a single die. Snapdragon 800 is the part formerly

(or still internally) known as MSM8974 which we've seen rumblings about

numerous times.

Qualcomm tells us that the Adreno 330 will offer roughly 50% more graphics

performance over Adreno 320, and an almost 2x increase in compute performance.

The integrated 9x25 3rd generation LTE baseband enables support for UE

Category 4 LTE with up to 150Mbps downstream, this is the same IP block as in

MDM9x25, and likewise MSM8974/Snapdragon 800 will be available in all the

usual variants (CDMA2000/WCDMA/LTE, WCDMA/LTE, and finally no modem).

Snapdragon 800 also integrates 802.11ac baseband, a new feature of modern

Qualcomm SoCs, just like 8960 and the previous S4 family.

Snapdragon 800 also includes a 2x32 LPDDR3 memory interface.

On the video/decode side, the SoC supports encode/decode of 4K HD content at

30 fps.

Also being announced today is the Snapdragon 600. This part integrates four

Krait 300 cores running at up to 1.9GHz. Adreno 320 handles GPU duties,

although with an increased clock speed. Compared to the current Snapdragon S4,

the 600 is expected to improve performance by up to 40% if you combine IPC and

frequency increases.

The new Snapdragon 600 is also known by the part number APQ8064T, and was

formerly known as the Snapdragon S4 Pro.

​

So here you can see that we will have a platform based on the following components:

PMIC: 8841/8941 (or 8851??)
RF: [URL="http://www.anandtech.com/show/6541/the-state-of-qualcomms-modems-wtr1605-and-mdm9x25"]WTR1605L[/URL]
Audio: WCD9320
Data: WCN3660

This is already incorporated into their CodeAurora kernel GIT.

[Hardware Hacking General] AECRADIO:
Snapdragon RF channels.

This is an area I can sink my teeth into, and build amplifiers for!

Nothing beats a good RF preamp when you are in shadow zones and lousy Fresnel areas like a solid GaAs FET amplifier.

Of course, it would help if the handset designers would provide an 'acceptable' interface port for roof-mounted antennas!

A good, modest gain antenna would be fine, A 3 dB gain, broadband to cover CDMA, S, and UMTS, as well as GSM.

This causes problems in antenna design, as no single antenna is really suited to operate across a wide swath of spectrum, let alone work in non-harmonic-related bands. Even odd ordered bands are difficult to design antennas for if you do not have the proper analyzers and tools to actually model the RF pattern of the signal.

Even order and odd order products need to be addressed..I dare say a capacitive coupled antenna would need to be employed, so the windshield will be the likely candidate to keep the feedline losses minimal,

Actie devices would require a ceramic filter as a duplexer, as you need the transmitter running at the same time the receiver is active, and they must never be allowed to support self-induced EMF or cross talk.

A minimum for me for suppression would need to come in at -75 dBm. And this is where a good, low noise GaAs FET amplifier would fit in, to drop the internal and atmospheric noise, and ramp up the low level RF signal ahead of the digital front end.

Oh the fun of working with small signal devices!

This is a list of Qfuses that I was able to dump from my device. It appears to be the hwioregmap source or something similar. This should give us a better idea of what fuses are inside. Notice the lack of a warranty/tamper fuse... I also did hear that the warranty 'fuse' is on the MCU too. Anyways, check these out:

I guess, the next step is to convert our Snapdragons to programmable SDR's!

Who want's to dig into the the RF firmware?

We need some more documentation on these.
[HTC One X] asp2010:
Hello!

I've been holding off unlocking my HOX's bootloader since I saw a yellow spot appear in the corner of my screen 3 weeks ago. I would go for a custom rom for better performance and battery life, but I'm afraid the spot will get bigger and I will have to send my phone for a repair.

So here are the questions: Has anybody sent an unlocked phone to service for a screen problem? Have they charged you for the repair? Can the spot actually get bigger?

Just to mention, I'm not willing to send my phone to service as of now, since the spot is quite small and it is the only issue I have had with it in 7 months. On the other hand, two of my friends have sent their HOX's to service and received units having more problems than the original ones :(
[HTC One X] Guich:
If you are talking about flickering of screen, it doesn't depends from an unloacked phone...

You can change rom as many time as you want :)

If you must send your phone to repair, you don't have any problem because is a manufacturing defect ;)
[HTC One X] Alex240188:
No he is talking about the small yellow circles that appear from the poorly cured glue. I have 2of these in both the very bottom left and bottom right of screen.

They sometimes are not visible. Sometimes very visible but they never change in size.

If you can live with them i wouldn't worry about then getting bigger. Its very unlikely to happen.

Unlocking the bootloader should not affect your warranty if you have to send it back as its got nothing to do with software
[HTC One X] asp2010:
Yes, it is like a disc of about 1 cm diameter which shows a white image as yellow when the phone heats up; it is almost invisible when it hasn't been used for a while.

Thank you for your advice! I was worried it would take over the whole screen when it showed up, as there was nothing wrong for more than 6 months. I looked it up a bit and it seems there is no way to get rid of it :(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bmxmike:
So I have a question that may or may not have been answered before:

Q: Is there anyway to password protect SS or BMM?

Either is there a way that when booting to enter the menu you must enter a pin, or while in the menu to either Wipe, Install, or delete a rom slot you must first enter a password?

I ask as a better way to keep a phone from being stolen. In most cases if you have say a pin code to unlock your phone a person will simply reformat or reinstall the stock firmware to erase everything and "clean" the phone so that it can't be tracked. In most cases if you have no pin code the person will in some cases leave it but sometimes factory resets and with some software that kills the tracking and locating of the phone.

Basically I wanna be able to password protect the SS or BMM so that when someone is booting they can just easily boot into SS delete my rom slot reformat and reinstall the rom to be able to bypass gps tracking. I know that this isn't a perfect method as I'm on JB leak someone coold boot to ap then go to moto recovery and then install the JB leak back on the phone which would bypass everything and leave him a clean install but would take more work. Just wanna add alittle more security to it.

Any answers would be great thank

I m currently running slim rom on my infuse but i'm now so bored about the many issues everybody have with ics first and jelly bean now. I am seriously thinking to go back to gingerbread so finally my hdmi will work and no problems with recording with the camera etc... So here i'm asking if anyone can suggest me the best and most stable 2.3.6/2.3.7 rom. I used to run AEON rom but i had a look on 2.3.7 cyanogen mod and it seems much better. Hope to not be a noob with this thread thanks to all of you guys. XDA the best!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] electricpete1:
does wording of the question make a difference?

Bigjoe would've probably put a few pictures/graphics in there to help make the point for dummies like me (as he usually does).

The same type question (what's the best ROM) comes up again and again and there's always an understandable reluctance from developers and really senior members to permit that discussion.

I wonder if it might be a bit more tolerable if the question were reworded slightly to ask:

"what's your personal favorite....and why"

instead of

"what's the best".

(Would that be a better question or still frowned upon?)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] threi_:
Well if camera and HDMI are your main concerns then it's best to stick with our Samsung-based 2.3.6 roms.

Sometimes we are going too far, because if he is hardbricking his phone because of not reading tutorial, then he is asking us to help. And theese smileys used in the OP... Not really "friendly". It's like help me f*ckers, it's your fault! There are some other guys bricked their phones and asked for hep, but nobody was using angry smileys, and also the answer was always the same. Samsung Sevice Center. It's searchable. And all other threads by this guy are solvable by reading. The problem is: We are always feeding them with answers, so they never need to think or search, and because of this, they won't.

HTC One S Ville that rec'd OTA JB update

Unlocked bootloader, flashed recovery, rooted, installed custom ROM.

Wanted to go back to stock.

Re-locked bootloader

Tried RUU for Bell, got carrier ID error

Tried RUU 1.7 for Rogers (learned about CID and it is Rogers001 on my phone) - failed with unknown error (now realize because it is older hboot)

Managed to get back to a custom ROM. Want to know if it is possible to install Bell RUU (Bell is my carrier) - ie can I defeat/fool the CID in some way? since newer Rogers RUU looks like it won't be happening...

[HTC Amaze 4G] tnkrer:
Phone is S-Off with Nrgz Energy ROM (ICS)

company email required mobile iron, so installed mobile iron which encrypted the phone and SD

mobile iron still doesn't work since the phone is rooted.

I did not like how mobile iron seemed to make the phone slower and battery drain much faster.

so decided to restore from the backup

But I cannot restore since the recovery cannot mount the storage (it is now encrypted!)

After searching around I think here is what I need do to get back to my old backup

1. Use Latest ICS Tmo RUU (from this thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1617644&page=13) and rename it as PH85IMG.zip on the sd card and flash in hboot. I am hoping that disk will be formatted in this operation and encryption will go away. Since I am S-Off, I don't need to relock the boot loader. right?

2. Would the recovery be lost? If it is, reinstall recovery

3. restore backup

Any problems with this? Any other/better methods to achieve my goal?

Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] tnkrer:
anyone? ... anyone? ...

At least about the first part? Since I am S-Off .. I dont have to relock the bootloader to flash the RUU, right?

Also Under storage, I saw that I could unencrypt the SD (which would remove all contents of SD). Will that remove encryption on the phone as well?
[HTC Amaze 4G] tnkrer:
resolved

an update .. for anyone that will need something similar ..

1. The process worked. Encryption is gone on the phone. (external sd still seems to have encryption .. I am using a different one at the moment)

2, Recovery was gone. The bootloader was locked, so I had to flash jb_hboot to be able to push recovery

3. After recovery was flashed, successfully recovered backup.
