Need community support? choose desire
Need the beautifull phone? chose arc. By the way, it has open bootloader
Go for a dual core phone....I prefer a MOTOROLA ATRIX 4G
Sent from my X10mini using XDA App
Well guyz i visited a shop today and taken alive review of both i recognize sum facts....Well as per the further updates i should choose HTC desire HD...becoz it has 768 MB RAM rather than Arc with 512 MB RAM...And HTC got good support and easy n fast upgradeable's..
As per the Xperia X12 ARC i saw that Arc with bravia Engine screen which make it AWESOME photo-master phone.....And videos are truly like freaking AWESOME......Every thing is good in its case excepts two things
First -: Slow customer service
Second -: Honeycomb would or would'n be in it as update.
Btw Atrix got 1gb of ram

Galaxy Mini2(having same chipset & GPU) getting JB officially..our P500 any chance?

Galaxy Mini2(having same chipset & GPU) getting JB officially..our P500 any chance?
Samsung Galaxy Mini2 users getting Lucky! Samsung has included it to the list of device to be updated to Jelly Bean
.
PHP:
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_announces_list_of_devices_that_will_get_jelly_bean-news-4853.php
And Mini2 has almost same spec as our P500.
Chipset Qualcomm MSM7227 (That means ARMv6 instructions set..right? OMX problem can be solved?)
CPU 800 MHz (overclocked one like Galaxy Ace I think)
GPU Adreno 200
SO, is the chance of getting full fledged JB rom for our phone growing, an official CM10 or AOKP JB with good camera quality?
Edit: When I checked GSMArena in evening, Galaxy Mini2 spec had only MSM7227(which has ARMV6 instruction set), so it seems strange to me to see Mini2 to get JB update,still I got excited. But now after 3 hours GSMArena updated Mini2 spec page and it is saying Mini2 has MSM7227A!!!..which probably got ARM v7 instruction set. So no change of scenario for P500
Is there a diff between Samsung Galaxy mini 2 S6500 and Samsung Galaxy mini 2 because in different sources the Samsung Galaxy mini 2 have armv7 and Samsung Galaxy mini 2 S6500 have the same spcecs of o1...
Sources: Samsung Galaxy mini 2 S6500 --> http://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_mini_2_s6500-3883.php
Samsung Galaxy mini 2 --> http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-GALAXY-mini-2_id6928
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
From what i can see here there are some differences:
http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=3380&id2=2485
p500 has Qualcomm MSM7227 (Armv6), the mini 2 Qualcomm MSM7227A (Armv7A)
p500 has 512 Mb storage, the mini 2 nearly 4gb
those are the two main problems whe have in porting JB to our old p500
May be possible
We have to ask to the developers

I need urgent hlp regarding x U/Sola!!

I've been observing a lot about xperia u and sola,since the last few weeks I've been watching videos regarding benchmarks of both.
My doubt is xperia Sola is given Mali400 but xperia U is provided with mali400MP ,I've seen in few blogs that mali400MP can perform better compared to mali400 of x Sola,as a gamer can I prefer x Sola over xU interms of performance?
And is GpU in x Sola overclockable?
3 rd is which is better Mali400MP(U) or Mali400(Sola)?
As the abv doubt is cleared
My second doubt is
Is THE MALI400 IN Xperia U/Sola OVERCLOCKABLE????
Both have ABSOLUTELY same gpu
Buy sola as it has expandable memory which is helpful for a gamer
Sent from my ST25i using Tapatalk 2
buy sola if u r a gamer... and both are using same gpu i.e. Mali400... if u want Mali400MP go for xperia P... but it does not have expandable memory slot.. limited 16gb.. i think that is more than enough for gaming.. xperia sola is for Rs19000 and xperia P is for Rs22500... if u can spend few bucks more go for P... ^_^
I agree with previous posts but to elaborate on storage, the 8gb on the U gives you access to only 4gb of that and the 16gb on the P gives you access to apparently 13gb but i only got like 11gb

sola/u cannot record or play 1080p while P can... because sola/u have single core mali400 and p have mali400mp...
i have spent 1 hour on this topic... may be i am wrong...

Isnt the 1080p also to do with camera quality, most 5mp only do up to 720p whereas 1080p is standard for 8mp cams nowadays
thnx a lot!! for ur reply
The only reason I'm asking u is bcoz
In Gsm arena they have stated that "x U has Mali400MP" while "x Sola has Mali400"(only) I've seen sumwhere on fB stating that mali200*2=mali400
Where Mali400MP is a single core true mali400
The l2 cache's differ according to reasons abv
Coz
Mali400MP will have L2 256Kb (single core)
While Mali400(200+200) might be lower than that!
Also can mali400 in X U/Sola be Overclocked????
I'm giving my first priority to s advance!
Coz I've seen it has better hardware (dull looks though )
If xperia P gets under 20K I will surely get one By Jan!
Coz even the online stores state that it is 22~23K

No,u r absolutely right!
I guess a single core mali400 cannot handle heavy games
May be that's Y nova 3 laggs like hell on X U/sola!!

Offcourse adreno220 beats mali400 in nena2 test by 10Fps
Also adreno225 is said to b 2x better in performance compared to adreno220
Which means HTC one s beats xperia p by 3~4x in graphics performance!!
Xperia U and sola have almost same specification. If you hardcore gamer, go to sola because it has sdcard slot.
BUT, go to Xperia U if you want more Custom ROMs.

I've met an s3 dev he said that all mali400 GPU's are quad cored but they are just underclocked,he also said that we can overclock any mali400 GPu if a suitable kernel is made!

Nova Thor SoC Dead ? Or still have some Fight left?

It seems lik the ST microelectronics and Ericsson is breaking up their joint venture and so their mobile chip making plans..
Source : http://www.phonearena.com/news/Chip...-shutdown-as-STMicro-plans-to-quit-JV_id37503
So guyz we will no further see any ST Ericsson Nova Thor SoC chips... Well in my opinion I think nova Thor chips are kick ass.i have used snapdragon before but nova Thor is much snappir for me..what do you think???
Well I just hope they release all their sources for the U8500 before they shut down.....

Nova Thor is just more energy efficient, in every other aspect Qualcomm eats Nova Thor for breakfast man.

Yeah my Qualcomm HP Touchpad can easily play HD files, my U is a stuttery mess, it's an okay chipset, but far from amazing.
They have not broke up completely and they're gonna release the next generation chipset soon

NOVATHOR CHIPSET IS VERY GOOD, BUT QUALCOM IS MORE OPEN SOURCE, NOVATHOR chipset MEET YOUR PROMISES ARE GOOD, COMPARED TO N OF I QUALCOM GHz is the same performance, stability, etc., all is in the processor, TOO MUCH ELSE CUENT ...... BUT NO PITY to separate, I am very happy with them ......

Well I prefer Qualcomm more than ARM actually...
just the previous Snapdragon Scorpion does not provide more processing power than ARMv7 Cortex-A9 so I jump from Xperia mini to Xperia sola, however Adreno 205(ICS driver updated version) is better than single core Mali-400(less graphic glitch and render speed is fast)

Mali-400 is the reason why you guys aren't getting jelly bean. It's more powerful, but consumes more RAM as an expense. The irony.

Not really, although benchmark is better than Adreno 205 but gaming experience is bit worse than Adreno 205, at least Adreno 205 provide stable gaming experience but Mali 400 single core got lot of graphic glitch and sometimes in some games fps even worse than Adreno 205
