[Q] 32-Bit Mode Exynos 5433

So I was reading a discussion about 64-bit exynos processors and a guy mentioned about sth intresting. What do you think, is this possible?
You are writing: The chip's firmware and drivers are running on a "CAL".
So I suppose it is not hardware limitation.
Could this change when they (or someone else) update their firmware, so that it becomes 64bit capable?

From all the various threads I've read making the exynos run 64-Bit is bootloader dependant. As the bootloader is closed source I think only Sammy can so it. I stand to be corrected on it though

If it is sammy dependent as you say, they won't make the exynos run 64-bit to keep it equal with Snapdrogon version since 805 is 32-Bit. Each processor has their our pros and cons depending on custom staff, performance and even a chance 64-bit support. It's really hard to choose...

Is A7 (2016) A710FD have Arm64x Cpu ?

hi , i read detail of my device in most site with 64 bit processor like this :
Octa-core, 1500 MHz, ARM Cortex-A53, 64-bit
but when i download some Apk like SwiftKey Keyboard 64bit arm version and Try to install it , i got error and not installed at all
the Arm version install without problem .
so why This happened ?
is the 64bit processor is fake on my phone or some apps have bugs in 64bit version ? or the 64bit that Samsung mentioned is only part of main core of device software ?

we have seen a few 64bit capable samsung phones like Note 4 that never had a 64bit OS adapted.
Whether you have a 64bit or not, the 32bit installed system is your limitation, not the hardware.

is there any chance that on android 6 update , the system installed 64bit ?
or these phones just have some limit 64bit names in processor core
The 32bit version of app work nice too , i`m just curious cause sellers make 64bit cpu too big issue when we want buy

Same on A5, why we have 64 bit cpu when its not use,shame.

I am not sure, you may want to ask the AOSP devs here if at least they have x64 builds.
As for stock sammy, i doubt it.

x64 bit custom rom

As the stock OS is 32bit, is it possible to compile 64 bit Android as a custom rom? I did not find any anything about this.

Never for Moto devices!
Moto uses 32-bit software always and the kernel sources are also 32-bit released by Motorola... So never can we get 64-bit roms,?

Huawei Y5II - CUN-L01 Kernel

First of hello hello to everyone here
I'll try to be as straight as possible.
I am having trouble compiling stock kernel from Huawei's source code for my device - Huawei Y5II - CUN-L01.
As this is my very first attempt to make a kernel i had a lot of troubles and i still do. After many attempts, i finally successfully compiled stock kernel for my device, the only problem is - it gets stuck in a bootloop which means something is wrong.
My device has mediatek - mt6735 with cortex A53 proccessor inside. I would like to ask is it possible to compile kernel for my device as arm64 ? Default one is armeabi - armv7l. I searched all over google for as hard as could and i keep reading that my proccessor is actually 64bit. Now i want to know is it possible to compile the kernel as 64bit and will it work with my current stock rom ? If not, can someone please guide me in how i can get some error logs and get any info on why my phone gets stuck in bootloop after i compile and flash arm version of my kernel.
I know my questions may be newbie but i am having really hard time understanding all of this, if someone can put some guides on what should i do i would be grateful. Also, i have many defconfig files in my configs folder and at first i wasn't sure which one to pick, and after trying to see differences between them i can't seem to find any with the naked eye, eventually i downloaded kernel auditor on my phone and searched all the way through the props and found that i should use "hq6735_35u_b1n_l1_defconfig" because it says it was the "flavor" for my kernel.
Thank you in advance and i hope to get some help

I think your getting arm64 and armeabi mixed up and all. Defconfig basically means the settings for your device, does it use this touchscreen or that or should it use this driver or that.

I undesrtand that, and i think of armeabi and arm64 like windows x64 and windows x86 bit i am confused about my kernel because on the web it says my proccessor is arm64 and my current kernel is based on armeabi. Correct me if i am wrong but just like on pc, if proccessor is 64bit it can also run 32bit version, phones work the same way ?

Can anyone develop a 64 bit rom for our device?

For moto g5 plus there is 64bit custom rom will our device get 64bit to get Google camera 5.0 working.

Actually, g5 runs snap 625 which is a 64 bit architect processor, where as 617(just functional is each for us).
So now you may have understood that its not the rom but the support from processor.
One should have easily rom it till now. But what the use of psp in rural area[emoji16]

Snapdragon 617 is also a 64bit processor but stock rom os is 32 bit same as g5 plus and htc a9 has same processor but has 64bit os .

True, i checked in snaps official page and 617 is a 64 bit processor, sry for posting w/o verification.
Pn developer about it, may they can reply more efficiently and tell us also what they says.[emoji6]

If you gays are not soooo lazy you have done some research on the active threads and found the the procesor is 64bit but the bus is only 32 so is not worty have a 64 bit os since the bus will need twice cicle to transport the data.

Htc a9 has 64bit os and it work fine

It is really nice that the developers are trying to make a x64 build for athene, but is los 15.1 the best option?
Because it is not stable by itself, and trying to make it stable AND 64 bit compatible at same time, isn't it too much effort? I understand that one way of thinking is "we can make it stable with 64 support already!", but maybe a port from 14.1, which is more stable, for 64 bit would show if it is worth or not (it will show what a 64 bits build can and cannot do, also performance), and in mean time, try to make 15.1 stable
I know that Dreamstar is doing almost all the job alone here (15.x and 64bits builds), so I'm thinking in try to make the 14.1 build port. I can code, but never did anything like that, not even close
