wtf my evo 3d only has 1 core??????? - HTC EVO 3D

ok guys i have a question.
i was running the benchmark test call, vellamo mobile web benchemark
wit 2 evos 3d, but at the and of the test i decide to check the device info,
in my the core 1 said that was at max freq 1188 Mhz, min freq 192 Mhz, but in the second one i have 0.
and in my dads(the 2nd evo) it has the same on the 2 cores max freq 1188 Mhz, min freq 192 Mhz, so can some body tell me wtf is going on, and if its there a way to check the cores

yours must have a pentium III.

Sounds like a defective phone, you should exchange it for something with a dual core like a samsung rant.

Yeah dude. I'm sorry.
Sounds like htc really shafted you this time.
It's a good thing vellamo is configured to allow dual core testing or you never would have found out.
Damn. Better call sprint for a replacement.

relax mine says the same thing. I am sure there will be a bunch of oher people here that it says the same thing. May be it sees as the second core not being active on the phone. I highly doubt if the processor was bad you would not have any stability issue, or HTC purposly locked one core and wanted to screw us.

well i still getting better scores that my dad's phone

so you still think you have a single core? sometimes the softwares are flaky and you cant just go by them all the time.

You definitely have a defective phone. Call sprint and tell them you want a Echo.

I would ask for an old motorola flip from from the 90's, I heard hey were so thick because they had lots of cores.

damn my core must be fast. I am scoring almost the same as every evo 3d and sensation. I wish the software said i had two of them, it might be faster. HAHA

this is the best thread

I checked mine it said core one: max 1188 and min 192
Core two: max 0 and min 0

Overclocking may be a solution?
These are really great news. I hope we will get flash as soon as possible. Let's see how these things will go.

Sounds like it may be hardware accelerated. Hopefully it is because my nook with an a8 CPU at 1.2ghz has issues playing 480p flash videos without hardware acceleration. Would imagine my optimus overclocked at 806mhz would have issues with 360p flash videos without hardware acceleration.
Good news but how will we get 800mhz on O1???It should be possible bcoz if not how Sam Ace & Gio are running on that speed!!!

Well, sometime you can get 800MHz. But overclocking is strange device dependent. So, somebody have 768 very stable you, but somebody can have 800 and somebody have some problems also on 710 like me for example.
I believe the ARM1176 processor is designed to 800 MHz for my LG Optimus V.
Not sure that everyone else is running the same processor, but I think there are two speeds for the ARM v.6, all flavors, which is 800 MHz and 1GHz. The cell manufacturers lower the speed to conserve power and I'm certain buy the less expensive 800 MHz version.
So everyones CPU should be 800 MHz capable...that does not mean that the memory I/O can take a similar speed up - I don't know exactly what is being sped up with the CPU overclock, but the CPU itself shouldn't have any issues. If it is the system clock, then the I/O is already being timed appropriately and a speed up is overclock for it, but 800 MHz is not an overclock for the CPU.
Good news people let's wait and see...
Nice! I have been waiting for this from long time ago.

it is possible but for most peoples ROM anything past 787 will give a kernel error and reboot the phone the only ROMi got it to work on was Megatron ROM
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App running miks CM7, quadrant 2100, over clocked at 787
On Spica Max Neocore output was 7 fps and on o1 its 63 fps currently.
Even than I could play games like ninjump and mx moto.
So what difference would be there in performance even if we can clock till 768-787 and not 806.
Will the flash not run because our clock speed is 787 and not 800?
I hope people are getting what I am asking. When our o1 can handle things like Neocore 63 fps, 1gb ext partition, multi format video playback, then why would it be difficult to run flash on 787 instead of 800 even when flash would be optimized for our kind of processors?

Awesome news. Hope we get it soon.
More or less flash should work on or device even at 600mhz, the real issue is to optimize it for our chip set instructions.

Exactly. And even if there was a way to run flash on O1, I wouldn't bother with it myself. It would only slow down the phone and kill the battery life in two seconds.. I really, really don't understand what the big deal about this is. Low-budget phone, no flash. End of discussion lol.

Overclocking possibilities

How high do you think we can clock the processors on the EVO 3D? I recall they are 1.5 ghz chips underclocked to conserve battery life. Think these can hit that magical 2.0? Or at least 1.8?
I could see maybe 1.6 but honestly nothing over 1.4ghz is worth it... (batter>speed)
And nothing currently requires anything over 1.2ghz or 1.5ghz for that matter, other than peoples e-penis.
Id like to see a 1.4ghz uv kernel over 1.8ghz 1 hour battery killer but I will use and test all of them

Well that's your opinion. I highly doubt a overclocking the processor to 1.8 would bring the phone down to one hour of battery life. It's not like it would be constantly running at that speed. I would prefer speed over battery life as I charge my phone every night and have plenty left over even overclocked to almost 1.3 on my EVO.

I think this is less about practicality and more about pushing our phone to the limits. overclocking on an already fast enough processor on a device which runs for the most part on battery, is not needed. however it is fun and nice to see the benchmarks soar.
I say 1.8ghz-2ghz
If they're anything like the EVO 4G, then it wont be a very high overclock
But assuming all are capable of 1.5 GHz, then it would be at least a 400-450 MHz overclock!

As for saying 1.8 oc would kill it in a hour I was joking...
And I bet dollars to donuts you don't see a change in "speed" past 1.6ghz other than a hot battery.
Ginger bread can't fully optimize dual cores it does the job but untill a new os is out
no point ruining a battery for "speed" you won't see

While performance is key, I'd say this phone is well above the bar of expectations for most Android Apps at the current time. I'm more interested in squeezing the most battery life I possibly can via Underclocking. It will be nice to see how far this can be pushed with Two Cores to spread the workload across.

I'd bet that the chips in these phones will be those that were unstable at 1.5 ghz. That's how chip makers do these things. They make them all the same, then those with unstable silicon are sold as a lower clock speed. Not sure I'd expect over 1.5 and that might require higher voltage. Hope I'm wrong. We'll see I guess.

OK, a little less lazy right now. But simply the way that manufactures choose the speeds for processors is actually simple. In the case of the 3D it IS underclocked. The processor is an asynchronous dual core with clock speeds initially set at 1.5 by Qualcom and is used in Qualcom's phone they produce for developers. It is underclocked by HTC because of battery problems listed from the 4G and the unnecessary need of 1.5GHz in a F*ing phone. Manufactures for the most part do not underclock the CPU. The reason it is set at the level it is, is because it is most stable, efficient and meets the heat extraction needs (People forget CPUs are just circuits and produce heat with more voltage). OK lets back this up shall we. OK.
That is why I'm too lazy to post thing, I have to search up a link cause most of this is my general knowledge. Anyways, the QSD8650 found in the EVO 4G is clocked at 1GHz and has been posted to a stable 1.3GHz I believe by a recent post. Now the MSM8660 is posted to be a 1.5GHz CPU, so its overclocking potential is more near 2GHz but I would suspect it to get a little warm(sweaty palms anyone?) and I wouldn't know how stable it would be either (I don't know phones the best). Why is it underclocked? Because people kept *****ing at how much battery the EVO used and as technology improves so does the efficiency of CPUs so they go with the most recent and just underclock it. I've seen a comparison graph somewhere by Qualcom but I spent about 10minutes looking for it and couldn't find it but it was really nifty. If someone finds it plz post it, it shows the energy vs Clock speed and it is very cool.
Anyways, to respond to whoever said that the 1.5GHz is the max and that all manufacturers underclock the CPU based upon the silicon is WRONG, wrong WrOnG and Rong/wong (Im sorry I dont remember the exact response). Anyways, its the heat extraction and the silicon hurts it because it doesn't let all the heat through, which is one of the reason your PS3 may have yellow lighted on you(Yes its because of the CPU disconnecting from the Motherboard, but why do you think this extra heat was generated?).
Sorry this is so long and I got distracted a few times while writing it so it I messed up or something doesn't make sense I apologize but being lazy is really a pain in the ass.

That would be the case if this wasn't an MSM 8660. You're thinking like when AMD makes chips for the HD 6970 and some are found not to be stable at 880 mhz so they bin it to use in the HD 6950 which runs at 800 mhz. These are actually sold as two separate products. In the case of the processor in the Evo it's an MSM 8660 which is sold by qualcomm to be run at speeds as high as 1.5 ghz. If they wanted to sell chips binned for lower speeds they'd have to sell it as a different model since it wouldn't be capable of the 1.5hz.

toxic and donatom,
Your explanations make perfect sense. So I hope to be wrong. Does qualcomm sell a processor with that same architecture and a lower clock advertised?
Just seems like they're not gonna throw them away if they are stable and 1.2 or 1.4 but less stable at 1.5+. The 3vo seems like a good way for them to unload those processors.

To my knowledge, if this happens it gets recycled. But.....if this happens a lot then they need to change their manufacturing process or that the technology isn't there yet. Like now we have the technology to do 64GB MicroSD, but why do it because most devices can only do 32GB. For the companies that do sell them, well....I don't have good words for them, I also don't know of this happening. I can understand that it could be useful for donations to universities or others that could use them for damn near free prices, but not resold even under a different name.

Well in the case of AMD with many of their chip lines they produce a higher end chip. The ones that don't fully pass the tests at the higher speed get sold as a different model with a lower clock and voltage.
I have the most experience with the HD 6970 and 6950. They both use the same GPU, but the ones in the 6950 didn't pass AMD's tests at higher speeds so they are set at a lower clock and voltage than the 6970 (they also have some shaders disbaled). They are sold as two different models even though they were made the exact same way with the same silicone. This is not new chip manufacturers have been doing this for a while.
Think of it this way I make 100k chips out of those 100k I'm going to have a percentage that can't perform at their top performance, so instead of throwing them away I make a different model and underclock it and still make money on the chips that didn't pass at the higher speed. Now sometimes I will sell more of the lower end model so I actually have to take some chips that probably would have passed as the higher end model and sell them at the lower end. In this case the user gets lucky and can unlock their chip to the performance of the higher priced model.
EDIT: What HTC is doing here is buying a 1.5ghz chip but purposely underclocking it to save battery, since they figured most users wouldn't see the .3 ghz difference but would see the difference in battery life. Again in video cards you see this but usually the other way around. A manufacturer such as Asus, gigabyte, whomever takes the best of their chips they bought and overclocks them because again some were made even better than the standards set by AMD or Nvidia.
I guess what I'm trying to say here is that ALL these chips should do 1.5 ghz stable without question, unless there isn't enough space inside for the cooling requirements at 1.5ghz (which I doubt), and most should easily go above 1.6.
Edit again since I just saw this post:

This is something that happens mostly in higher end processors because their tolerances at those speeds are less forgiving. No manufacturing process is perfect, you're going to have some that won't perform at those very high speeds, and recycling would cost more to the company and environment then simply selling them at lower speeds. These chips are not bad, and not defective, just found to not be stable at those highest speeds, but are perfectly fine at the speeds they are being sold at, so why throw them away. If they don't meet the standards at the lower speed then yes they would be recycled.

Kernal issue?

I just got my SGS2 today and was so eager I had it rooted within 2 hours of it being placed in my hands. I was messing around in quadrant and clicked System Information..I scrolled to the CPU section and by Cores it says 1..but my friends sgs2 says 2 cores. He has the Sprint model.
Now why does it say I only have 1 core when this phone has 2?

Because sometimes depending on the service providor some details
shown are not as specific as with other service providors.
Now if your friend was on AT&T like you you noticed
this difference then it would be a different matter.
Depends on your current frequency... when mine is 500MHz or higher, Quadrant returns 2 cores... when running low frequencies, it will return value of 1 core. If you load up a few apps, then jump over to Quadrant, it will most likely show 2 cores as your CPU frequency will be higher.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
The exynos cores on our phones run asynchronous - when not needed one of the cores will power down, and as soon as it is needed it will ramp up. so just as the poster above posted when the first processor throttles down the second will shut off to save power, there is no need for two processors running using battery when demand for them is low.

Not exactly depending on frequency... I don't remember the exact hotplugging heuristic.
But in general - The second core is shut off by default and only gets powered on when under load.
Note that some dual-core phones (like Atrix) always show two cores because they are unable to fully remove the second core from a system and completely shut it down to save power. (Well, I assume the Atrix - I know the Tegra in my Tab 10.1 can't hotplug the second core out/in.)

Even then, when it's needed, and using ICS it doesn't turn on unless you're using SetCPU.
If you want to enable it manually do this from either "adb shell" or from the console on your phone:
Here's the full command string:
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
I know benchmarks don't really mean that much but with my second core enabled and both OC'd to 1.7 GHz while on Newt's Senseless ICS, my scores destroy the GNex and anything I was getting before!

How is the battery life after 2nd core is activated ?

I dont see a difference, as each core shares responsibility. So instead of one core being at 1.7ghz each core an be at 850mhz. Although sometimes the one core will max out without intiating the 2nd core.

Pretty crappy, but then again I have it at 75% brightness and the performance gov set to 1.7 GHz and 192 MHz with the screen off. My phone was fully charged at 1 PM, and it's currently at 45% using the standard battery. I only ran a few benchmarks with antutu and quadrant and a few other less intensive things. Looking at the battery info 78% of my battery usage is from the screen.
Try the AnthraX kernal in the development section. I believe its clocked at 1.51 to force the second core to turn on.

System Tuner Pro will allow you to force both cores online. Also it overclocks and undervolts aswell.

It currently only works with GB roms. Ignore me if Newt's Senseless is one, I thought it was ICS.
It is an ICS ROM I saw some people had it working with ineffibilis so I decided to give it a shot for the hell of it to see if it would work.
You dont need to force the 2nd core on, it will kick on. If you arent using setcpu that could be an issue. Antutu doesnt work. Also use cpu usage monitor and you can see both cores work.

Just a note i read on one of the kernels they stopped forcing the second core on because it caused issues. In the end i truly believe it would be unwise to do so. Let the cpu do its thing. Im on bamf 1.02 and my second core kicks on when it needs to.

so it's wise to use setcpu over antutu? I'll have to try again since I usually get freezing using setcpu with all kernels. no oc nor uv. might just be a bad combo between undeclock and current governor
I just tried enabling both cores with system tuner pro and it worked but evening started going a little jerky. I disabled it again and everything was fine again.

Yeah forcing 2nd core online is a bad idea. Using setcpu, oc max 1.7 min 192. No profiles no uv. Using cpu usage monitor to view cpu usage.

I suggest everyone go give that a quick read through, turns out our dual core snapdragons are quite a bit different then most of the other dual core soc's out today.
On cf-bench mine has a higher score than the s2. Im not worried

Antutu tester ist saying current CPU frequency 1993,93 Mhz

its saying that since .15 upgrade
Odd

Actually, I think its the bogomips.
As does mine.
But the AnTuTu Benchmark system info shows the correct stuff. My guess? The actual tester hasn't been updated as frequently as the Benchmark.
If we got that high of a clock, especially with all 4 cores, our Tegra 3's would burn up in like two seconds lol
AnTuTu Battery test was making my Prime so hot I quit it out of fear

That's only about 400MHz more than what it's running now, if you unlocked the 1.6GHz setting. I've seen speculation that we might be able to hit 2.0, but it's just that; speculation. I'm hoping it'll become a reality

I know, but that's the point I'm making. 5 minutes running all 4 cores at 1.6 GHz had my Prime at 42 degrees Celsius! 46.2 degrees is when I have my devices all but shut down to about 200 MHz... Like one or two minutes, all 4 cores, at 2.0 GHz, I don't see being actually usable.
Awesome for quick benchmarking? Yes. Awesome when utilized in Power Saving mode and using 2 or 3 cores? Sure.
Usable for gaming with all 4 cores? Hell no lol the Prime would melt IMO
P.s. I personally think we'll top out on the best Primes at about 2.2/2.3, with many users incapable of going past 1.8/1.9 without reboots and freezes and such. Just my own speculation, but the dev's shall show us.

Wow mine never gets that hot. Or even hot at all, really. Which governor did you have it set to? I always have mine set to 102MHz-1.6GHz with the interactive governor, and in performance mode, of course.
That's a good estimate for max clock speeds, I'd say. Can't wait to find out what the highest will be though!

Oh, no scaling.
I realize it's not realistic, things aren't going to run that way, but that's strictly 1.6 GHz for about five straight minutes.
Oh no, running my normal Profiles, it's always Ondemand and lower clocks the lower the battery gets. I stay pretty low on temp with normal use.

but wiki says that max clockrate is 2.0ghz so maybe its capable of doing that? but then its for all arm cortex-a9 so maybe for the future ones? but a15 is out soon
