I've read on Androidandme.com that the MSM7X30 will be coupled with the adreno 205
Quote :"The new Adreno 205 offers about 4x the graphics performance of the previous Snapdragon (Adreno 200), which is around the equivalent of a PowerVR SGX535"
http://androidandme.com/2010/08/new...ot-a-little-bit-faster-msm7230-cpu-confirmed/
Is this to be expected or are reports the reports of using the old Adreno 200 correct?
Either way very excited for new T-mobile hardware with a keyboard
Check this out
Check out what AndroidSPIN says about it
comparison of the 200 in current snapdragons and the new 205
Crap, might have to wait for this. I know it will be popular! I can't image anything in 3D on this.
i hope im wrong but it looks like the cpu wont be operating at 1ghz

Information I'm getting is its 1ghz, with an on-board Adreno 205 GPU.
But nothing is confirmed yet, so who knows.
hopefully some sources can leak us some official specs soon and we can find out what this puppy does. i will talk to my htc friend and see what he can find out for us
Im also seeing official Price of $199 with 2yr contract, $499 without.
yeah, you can see at the top of the pic on tmonews that the page was meant for internal use so i would suspect that to be the final answer on price, and as far as the specs we have so far 500 seems to be a fair price compared to some other phones
@tubaking, i hope you don't mind, but i absolutely HAD to steal you Greatest Video Ever link from your sig and incorporate it into mine.

So one question, didnt Google say that Gingerbread will only work on 1ghz cpus? Does that mean that the G2 wouldnt get Gingerbread?
those specs have been debunked, and this should be better than having faster CPU since we have great GPU
Plus, we'll be able to OC this baby to 1 GHZ or more anyways. This is gonna be awesome! I kind of wish I hadn't gotten the MTS now. Well, I got it when it first came and G1 was on its last figurative leg anyways. At the time, I had no idea the G2 would be coming out 3 months later. Oh well, I'll end up selling this one or keep it as a backup...
Very interesting... This could be a noob question but do you think you could overclock a gpu for better graphics performance...?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I keep telling myself that it will perform better but I can't convince myself that that's enough...
Gingerbread min reqs?
Someone above said the 1ghz processor requirement for gingerbread (NOT overclocked to 1ghz) is debunked. Where? Is that official? Would be blasphemy to release the G2 without adequate specs to get gingerbread...

after reading the processor specs on the mytouch HD (dual core 1ghz) im thinking the g2's processor is already long in the tooth and it hasnt even been released yet!
What do you guys think?
Also, wtf does the g2 look like in the back, I have yet to see any pics of its rear. whats so secret about it, I hope theyre hiding something big.
I really wanted to early adopt the g2 on day 1, but after hearing about the processor the mytouch HD will be packing, I may just wait. For a while..... I want something thatll keep me happy for a year that packs a qwerty
Check engadget for the pics of the back. I cant post the links because im new And im not sure how current/accurate that leak is. All of Qualcomm dual core processors were delayed. Wont see them in phones until next yr. Supposedly the MTHD is to be released in Nov. Something isnt right. We will soon find out

i looked there and at gizmodo and cant find any rear pics.
your right something isnt right at all, in a few months the hd3 will be released with a dual core as well. im starting to think that the mytouch hd and hd3 are packing dual core tegra 2 processors. to my knowledge, those processors have been ready to be dropped into devices for a while now. The dual core arms and quallcomms arnt ready if i recall.
Go to engadget. Click on the latest article about the G2. Click the G2 tag and click the article that says "T-Mobile G2 again, this time with less Mr. Blurrycam." I need to rank up so i can post links lol
i sifted through the internets and found out that the mytouch hd is indeed running on the tegra2 processor. the processor is a soc with 2 A9 cores; each at 1ghz.
in regards to the hd3, im reading that its a dual core 1.5ghz, and that its a single core 1.5ghz.... still alot of speculation. regardless.... its gonna be an interesting 4th quarter.
if the mytouch hd wasnt so ugly id look past the fact that it was missing a keyboard.

The MyTouch HD is made by HTC which mostly use Qualcomm chipsets. That article is very fishy. That whole dual processor thing is missleading, it could mean anything. In fact the G2 is a "dual processer" phone. The G2 has a cpu and gpu. I say just wait and see, this just don't seem right.
P.S. I have not read anywhere that has stated it is a tegra 2 chipset, pls provide link!

Yea read that too, that just that authors opinion, there is no evidence to back up his statements. If I had to guess the Mytouch HD will use a 1 ghz version of the G2 chipset since its technically a "dual processor" chipset too.
I'm skeptical of this. 1st of all, the mytouch was never a high-end brand. so it seems strange to me that they would all of the sudden use that brand as one of the first ever dual-core phones. 2nd of all, I don't see HTC moving away from qualcomm just yet, but I could be wrong. and lastly, there's something weird about that leaked TMO promo. the writing seems very amateurish to me. but thats all speculation on my part.
Keyword "dual processor" not dual "core" processor. There's a difference. Dual processor is what the G2 and Galaxy S feature; a separate unit for the CPU and GPU. Qualcomm does not make 1Ghz dual core chips.
Also, think about this. Why would T Mobile put a state of the art dual core processor in their teenage MyTouch line, but not in their business power house G2 with "The Google Experience"?
People are threatening to not purchase the G2, or ultimately leave T Mobile for their reluctancy to release a powerful business phone.

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/08/qualcomm-1-5ghz-dual-core-snapdragon-devices-to-arrive-at-end-o/
dual-cores aren't coming this year unfortunately..and I'm pretty sure that when they land, it'll be for phones without QWERTY. I think manufacturers milk the market with touch-only phones with latest tech, before releasing the more 'professional' QWERTY equipped phones. Just look at the time it took for HTC to release another QWERTY android.
So in my books, it's either G-2 or Milestone 2 at this point in time....of course, we'll have to wait for HTC's announcement on the 15th Sept. and hope that they shed some more information!

Well, if it is the Vibe4g, i'll be damn well be pissed #NeverAgain at Samsung.
Then really, this Vibrant we have are really "Outdated" (TMo did say it is, and not 'selling' this phone because of the upcoming 4g Galaxy S)
Now its an i9000 with 4g
I'm not too worried, I went on my desktop from a single to duo core, then a quad, and now a 8cpu they are coming out toward the end of the year a 16 core......
The point is they will always keep improving and dole out the upgrades bit by bit to max their profit......... that's the capitalist way...... and just think-- We taught them how to do this......
I ll get a duo core when it comes out, but until then, I love the vibrant. It is a great phone

Well said!
When vibrant came out last year, I bought it not because the rumored 2.2 coming-soon update, but for that the SAMOLED screen is FABULOUS, just as any visual animal would do. So when the next Galaxy phone comes out with dual core and SAMOLED+? Hey, I'll be in the line.
I love the vibrant. With KA6 updated through Kies Mini and voodoo lag-fix, I'm a happy man.
Can't wait to see how the dual core phones chew up the battery.
These new dual cores look sweet, but I'm going to wait until the next gen that comes with Honeycomb.
We know that this current crop of dual core phones are going to release with an OS that doesn't even properly support dual core CPUs. So basically a ton of first adopters are going to buy these phones and fine they're only marginally better performers (if at all) than the current single core phones.
And then you're going to read the incessant whining on XDA about "how could they release a phone without an OS that properly supports its greatest hardware advantage," and then when 3.0 does drop, it's going to be weeks, if not months, of whining and hairpulling for the update or port.
Not me. I'm going to wait for a dual core that ships with 3.0, probably later this year. That way I won't end up buying another phone that is gimped stock.
I guarantee, if you buy one of these first gen dual cores, you will be disappointed and suffer anguish as you keep hitting F5 for any news about a Honeycomb update.

I can't wait for 8-core 128 bit cells phones so I can do scientific computing while I'm waiting in line for coffee!

I don't think it will come out with a faster cpu about 1 gig just dual which in sense will be faster. It will be more for multi tasking I don't see myself using 10 or 20 apps at once to make use of it.

I love my quadcore core CPU the attached image is what I get when I clicked the OPs link as you can see all 4 cores are working. The more cores the merrier thats how I feel. Even if a app only uses a single core four apps can each use their own core. Also I believe as smart as the DEV are here it would not take them long to realize how to utilize each core either independently or together.
qualcomm is not going to have product to show until 2012, tegra 3 is half a cycle ahead with products in august of this year. This is a huge advantage and gives them more time for architecture optimizations.

The most common defense verbally is "you don't know what your talking about". No surprise that is your response. I never said the technology should never be supported, I do think that it is premature. Considering what four devices will have dual-core. So why do we need quad-core in the next 1yr to 1yr and half? Android isn't even fully supported with dual-core yet. Not to mention the app devs have not started writing support. Again if your going to sound like some kid and come back with a moronic response like that. Then ignore my posts.. The link was not immature, so you fail to understand. The content in your post and the title is what got you the immaturity label.
You know what's sad? That chip right there would be a much-needed improvement in my PC... And yet they're focusing on smartphones for this...
To the upset kitten, relax bra. He just has ideas and I'm all for the quad core but not yet. They need to slow this down instead of releasing all of these goodies at once because phones are starting to be more and more like computers...which is the point I suppose and I'm for it but dammit make my first gen snapdragon single core run like a boss!

I've been an android fan since the G1 but android needs something, something small that would make it completely PWN iOS, which it does but sucks for the everyday indepth user. Android is fragmented as hell and needs to be cleaned up which I'm hoping for in the upcoming android firmwares/updates. I think we can all agree that my Evo shouldn't have any trouble running its basic apps and hickups in scrolling, I need the loose ends tired up. With a 1Ghz CPU and 512MB of RAM it should be totally s****ing on the iPhone.

It might useless this moment but it won't be when it comes out, or shortly there after.
I don't understand why people always try to dismiss new technology as useless just because it hasn't been the standard..[obviously, because it's new]
i dismiss it because our phones can't even properly use dual cores, and because a faster dual core over a quad core will often give your desktop higher user inference scores.

The next Xoom is apparently going to be quad core and called the Motorola Kore(terrible name by the way), hopefully the Xoom will still get supported.

Love this. Haha! But really... the dual core struggles at times for me. I can see the use for a quad. Or just a dual that runs faster than molasses in winter. 1GHz isn't much...
I'm just bought a zoom daang it now they are bringing a quad core.

I dont know really, its something I scratch my head about sometimes. I know it does have its uses for some people
Is quadcore going to be somehow the savior of android tablets and convince millions of people to give up their iPad all of a sudden just because nvidia/moto releases a "quad core" tablet?
Who knows....
I just hope that the accessories for the current xoom will fit the new one.
Update hardware is useless if software is not optimized for it.
maybe more cores because video playback support is not great (dice player helps)and web browsing is far from desktop quality.
I like my xoom but it falls short in my two key areas.
