[Q] Samsung Galaxy SIII Running on single core - Galaxy S III General

Hi, so recently I flashed the Siyah Kernel on my S3 GT-I9300T. I downloaded STweaks so that I can do some tweaks to my S3. Then I went under CPU SCALING SETTINGS and changed the MAX CPU LOCK to single core (so that my S3 would run on 1 core to save more battery), but I was worried if it was going to do any damage to the core if it was under a lot of pressure (like playing heavy 3D games).
Thanks.

Cpu and gpu overclocking

Hello, i have overclock my tablet with tegrak, i have set cpu to 1600 and gpu to 400.
I have tray to play with gta3 with these settings and the risoult is awesome! The game is more smoth and the lag goes out! I mean at full resolution !
My question is.. sameone have any experience in overclocking this samsung devices with a9 and mali-400 ? Sameone have used any galaxy s2 or galaxy note for long times with the gpu and cpu overclocked? Any issues? Your overclocked devices still works or the overclock has broke it? In your opinion my p6800 (that is more large of a galaxy s2 and loss more heat)will handle an overclocked gpu and cpu without destroing itself? Please same real experience
Ps. Is there any way to overclock the mali in any different speedstep? The only one after 276 is 400, and 400 maybe can be too hot.
Don't you need a special kernel to be able to over clock? Or does tegrak somehow bypass that need?
all you need is lova.. xD just kidding, you need a rooted device and the last version of tegrak no kernel mod

Only ARM Cortex-A7 running in Exynos 5 Octa core processor

Just bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 internatiional version with Exynos 5 a few days back.
According to the SYSTEM TUNER App my SGS 4 is using ARM Cortex-A7 core whether i run cpu demanding apps like large games or i do low cpu demanding tasks like web browsing.
Help..!!!
if it has lcd instead amoled, its possible that a7 is only used

Lol do you really think that a quad arm a7 would score the high numbers you see in benchmarks? System tuner is not optimized to check for other cores as well I'm just guessing here

Grand Duos vs Grand Quattro (Win Duos)

Which one is better? Does the Grand Duos have a Gpu? How does its dual core processor compare to quad core of Quattro?
Main requirement is dual SIM with good display and battery life and also able to play some games such as Subway Surfers. I am tilted towards Grand Duos because of better camera.

I have galaxy grand and my friend has the quattro
I never regretted buying the grand
when using the quattro I Don't feel the extra bump of the processor and the games lag because of the quattro's basic gpu adreno 203
on the contrary the same game with the same apk never lag in grand even in power saving mode because of the better gpu of grand videocore IV
plus the extra screen real estate and better camera an 1080 play and recording of grand are all plus points for me
quattro is a joke really compared to grand in real life performance don't be fooled by benchmarking
and quattro practically has no development going for it that means no mods no custom roms and be grateful if it even has a rooting method "really bad for me"
that's my opinion and the decision is for you
Go for Grand if possible. Trust me, Galaxy Grand smoke away Galaxy Win miles away. Although Grand are using 1.2GHz A9 core + Video Core IV, are way better than Win Quad-Core 1.2 A5 core + Adreno 203.
Subway Surfers problem can be solved (If you having it) by upgrading your firmware. OTA or ODIN.
Grand is better than quattaro in terms of specs, screen, camera:good::good::good:
Grand is better in every aspect
Camera
Display
Gpu
Cpu
Official 4.2.2 update by Samsung
Bigger battery
Etc etc

Galaxy win is a good idea if you have your budget limited.
Quattro has high benchmark still poor performance don't know why... my brother has that phone...
I have grand. He wants to exchange with me. Lol.. now you decide...
To err is human; to forgive is divine
I think that Galaxy GranD Is Better than Win Duos ... win duos have an older processor ...

[Q] Samsung Galaxy s3 mini GT-I8200

why the roms don't work on this device?? in general the spec are the same the cpu is a little bigger.

[Q] S3 Neo vs. ZenFone 5

Hello everybody, and happy new year! (kinda late )
My question is, that which phone is better. What do you think about these phones and do you have some experience with these phones??
There are a lot phones at the price around 230$, but these are one of the best ones for that price. (I think)
I prefer Galaxy S3 Neo, because of its functions and because is not that big as ZenFone 5, and because of its Android. ZenUI is not that bad on ASUS, but there is almost everything new and you need accustom to it. What I "hate" on the ASUS is design of the phone, but it doesn't matter. On hardware I think ASUS is better, but in camera not, it doesn't have that nice quality pictures and on S3 Neo look better. I will be happy If you post some about these phones what do you think is better and if you have some experience with it, if it is lagging or something like that. Just If you're happy with that phone (if you own it). I don't understand a lot a technology and I'm not expert , sorry for my english and hope you will post something. Thank to everybody.
Zenfone has 2 cores at 1.6Ghz and the S3 neo has 4 cores at 1.2/1.4Ghz. I dont know about cpu cores in mobile devices so i cant tell if those +2 cores are something wow.
ZenFone 5

Yes, it is true, but everybody says that its "behaving" as quad core 1,6 GHz... (btw. S3 Neo in my country has 1,4 GHZ CPU)

Well antutu says its 22k and the s3 neo is about 20k points. So probably take the zenfone 5 because of the bigger screen but i dont know if it matches the s3 neo in multitasking and general speed. Is it like "Zenfone 5 has an intel cpu with 2 that matches an amd cpu with 4 cores"?
I would always prefer to take qcom device because there is huge support from codeaurora and google ....
Also 1.4 x 4 ghz > 1.6 x 2 ghz , AMOLED > IPS ...
Well, I'm mostly listening to music, sometimes play games (games like Clash of Clans and more...) and browse YT or internet, so I don't think that I need some great multitasking. BTW. I have heard. that ZenFone 5's battery at Android KitKat is really draining... ASUS's Intel CPU is not acting like dual-core, there are some enhanced functions, so it's like quad-core. Also, ZenFone gets Lollipop on April, but i don't think that I need it too much . If you look at GSMArena, people are really happy with S3 Neo, but ZenFone, everybody talking about bad battery, and camera... - So, may I choose S3 Neo?
You can post some other phones for that price, for example some other brands, S3 Neo and ZenFone 5 are the most liked for that price in my country.
I'm not using my phone for games, I need some great phone, which has good battery life, big RAM (because I have a lot of apps on the background) and camera too.... it will be good, if it has some new Android (Lollipop).
