Definitely appears that way. I wonder what type of RAM it is: DDR2 or DDR3? And how does it all work with these updated Intel CPUs?

nah its the GTX 480 in SLi..
AMD 430 iirc, which is a distant relative of the xbox chip (but about 100X more feeble). It's standard on old snapdragons, newer ones have a gruntier 460.

Will we ever see an android device with tegra 2 chip?

Can you think of any reasons we wouldn't? It's designed for smartphones and we have devices using Tegra 1.
It would be nice to get a serious answer...
thanks... It's nice to know...
The GPU is an AMD Z430 (OpenGL ES 2.0), it doesn't use the same drivers as the other HTC devices using snapdragons SOC, it's usually a wee bit faster though it's locked to 30fps.

Wow, a customized platform? I figured they'd be using something based on the reference board (HTC that is).
Thanks for the info, guess you learn something new every day.

The GPU and CPU are the same chip, it is also a lot of other things on the same chip like GPS...
the X10a uses othe chip then X10i
'a' uses QSD8650 processor 'i' uses QSD8250
and the GPU is same for bought and it is Adreno 200... YOu can find other infos on wiki...

So x10a is "better" than x10i?

I read it and it seems that the only difference is that they support different radio bands.

Not until the bootloader is cracked and the kernel can be modified.

Can any one bring Windows Phone to our Xperia S?

i think it will be eẽexcited because our XPS's hardware is not bad compared to WP phone

Hardly possible and completely unreasonable.
Let me get this straight, you want to run WP7 which only supports single core, on a dual core phone? Well arent you a clever chappie.

You can run Android on your laptop because it's open source and someone can build it for your laptop. Windows Phone isn't, therefore you can only run it if Microsoft allows you to, which they obviously don't do for Android devices.
Maybe try launcher 7 from market

It won't be possible right now, not any Sony phone.
Windows Phone currently only has support for 800x480 displays, and no Sony (Ericsson) phone has ever had that resolution as far as I know.

It is a prototype, and an old one (judging by the Sony Ericsson logo on the top bezel), which is also specifically designed for Windows Phone, as there's a Windows Flag logo / button on the bottom bezel. Whatever resolution that has, it has never gone into retail.

Windows 8 on Android

Is it at all possible for the Windows 8 os to be ported to our android devices? Don't hate please..just a noob being a noob
Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
Definitely not the full version but possibly RT.RT is the windows 8 version that runs on ARM processors.
Would be an interesting dual boot
Like posted above, the full version of Windows 8 is not meant for the ARM architecture that Android phones use, but RT (found on the RT Surface Tablet) is.

It would still need a custom kernel and drivers, which seeing windows rt is very locked down I doubt it will happen.

If you try to compile anything 4.0+ your going to have a bad time. unless you have 4 gig ram, not even GB.
I have added some specs on OP

If you are trying to compile, its not going to matter, your specs are too low.

+1 Netbooks are intended for nothing more than browsing the web. To try to make it run some resource-intensive function is askimg for trouble. If even just consider that Windows has to be stripped down just to make it work right, you should realize that you're computer isn't quite up to the job.

I am only compiling kernels on my laptop and it takes at least 15 minutes on my celeron 1.86 GHz and 1 gig RAM. Compiling whole android system on a netbook is very bad idea, it takes a lot of CPU power and Intel Atom is not designed to work on high loads.
Thank you for advices

I know this is an old post, but i have a cheap 11.6inch laptop/netbook that came with 4gb of single channel ddr3 ram and a 320gb hdd, put 8gb of ram and a 480gb sandisk ssd in even though it only has sata 2 and it runs fine
Intel n2840 dual core celeron, 1mb cache. (2.16ghz and 2.58ghz boost)
Very low power it is fanless, acer aspire e3-112.
Compiles cm12.1 fine for my n9005, only takes half an hour
Edit -
I use arch as my primary, but use xubuntu 15.10 to build with. Did have some problems dual booting with grub and uefi but managed to sort it out.
Great cheap setup with really good battery life, 11.6inch 1366x768 screen.

Will we get Android 5.0 officially by Samsung?

What do you guys think?
It seems we will receive 4.2 early next year, but what about 5.0? It probably will be out in summer, so its near the end of the 18 month update plan.
Guesses?
i don't think . they will probably say they are " working on it " than cancel it and say it wont release it because it doesn't have enough ram .
^ 5.0 will probably add a bunch of new features but I'll bet the main aim for El Goog will be to optimise it so it runs on more devices. The biggest con on Android from other smartphone users is "fragmentation" I reckon Google will do their best to sort this.
Yes

It'll probably be on the SGS IV then.
Lets watch how 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2 goes, 5 shall probably follow the same rollout schedule.
As for telco's rolling it out, expect the same slowness 3month+ delay for bloatware, testing, reports, approval etc. Probably a 2014 release unless it comes pre installed or DIY if you want it early
Think ill just go for the SGS IV
I would say, Yes.. unless there's a new hexa-core processor for smartphone in the coming future, then will slightly doubt S# will be getting 5.0
For now with quad-core and 1GB RAM (or some cases 2GB RAM) are enough spec for smartphone..
Maybe, in year 2046..

They are the best processors though, and if you want a proper a15, the exynos 5 is the only way to get there. It's also worth keeping in mind that the Exynos 5 is also much more open source friendly now that it is used in the nexus 10(that could however change if Samsung decides to go for the big.little architecture change).
Just because Exynos deosnt have proper documentation doesnt mean its not the best mobile processor on the planet. It is.

Best by your
preferences. Best by my preferences is a well documented one like those of Qualcomm.
