As far As I know the latest exynos beta has the latest mali drivers included, I'm not sure about vulcan but the hardware is certainly compatible
There seems to be some improvement.

This video contains benchmark comparison between nougat and oreo and although everything is almost same in CPU department when looking at 3dmark score opengl 3.1 performance is similar but vulkan score have improved greatly 2192 vs 2529.

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...
Hi,
I just bought a new Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 tablet and the model number is SM-T533. From what I've seen, the only difference is that the processor is a 64-bit snapdragon 410, vs the 32-bit snapdragon 400 from the other models. Does anyone know if ROMs for T530NU are compatible?
Thanks in advance .

Not only ! This is a main and key difference

Yeah, I know. I'm just wondering if the T530 ROMs are compatible or even if they can be installed at all. Maybe I'll have to wait until devs compile a version for this processor.
There is no custom recovery as far as I know as there is no source code for kernel. No way to root either unless you are on very old firmware.

Could this have been posted with the unofficial CyanogenMod 14 or other Nougat roms?
ohhh yes i read many news that it is being tested for Nougat !!!!!! If LG actually did this... it is going to take the update support carpet from Google who dumped its old devices and will make my next phone be LG !
And Sprint's variant will still be stuck on Lollipop
I'm pretty sure that's BS and will come out as no... Im sure they can't update Nougat itself has dropped support for our chipset... Z3 had working betas for the Nougat but they had to stop Nougat to comply with Google and stopped supporting Z3

Xing my fingers!
guys, the SD801 in the G3 is not supported by Qualcom anymore and they refused to release a Vulcan graphic driver.
Becvause of this, no phones with this chipset will be allowed by Google to officially support Nougat.

yes but people have already got nougat on to the phones which means it is still possible to run nougat on the chipset/phone

allowed by google? or qualcomm ? I know it is qualcomm problem.
It is probably some unofficial android 7 based on cm...
Not really, the problem is the fact the phone must have vlukan support for android 7 certification, but Qualcomm / Google haven't make the necessary to run vulkan on older snapdragon, so no vulkan, no certification for android 7, so no official update unless LG remidy the problem
Guys is it possible for cm 14 official?
Fingers crossed ?

CM14 is already being tested. So, yes, CM 14 official it's on his way
It says here that only devices with Snapdragon 800/801 will not be supported
http://www.androidauthority.com/android-7-0-snapdragon-800-801-712930/
However, there's another variant of LG G3 with a higher chip version (LG G3 Cat6 LTE) with Snapdragon 805 chip.
So no more official support from google? it doesnt matter anyways since devs will make ROMs based on Android 7 here. Sadly not all performance-related features will support it due to the chipset.
Still glad they are testing it out

could be possible to be retail lg

you dont need vulcan api so qualcom dont need to release new drivers
Geekbench only saves bench from orginal rom no any custom :]
I hope LG will release this room soon
Greetings to all,
I saw this phone on a sale for about 175$ and I have to say, for the hardware (snapdragon 821, 64gb, 4b of ram) I think it is a very good price, but I´m doing some reading and this phone comes with android 6 and vulkan support comes with Nougat.
I would like to know is there´s a custom rom for this phone than enables opengl 3.2 and vulkan support.
Also I saw some threads like this one :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...eno-vulkan-drivers-snapdragon-t3555141/page20
In that thread some people modified the adreno drivers so that they can be installed on any phone with a snapdragon 820/21 chipset and get vulkan support, this method could work on this phone?
and lastly, the phone I saw was the usa edition, what is the last official rom for that model?, and the bootloader can be unlocked?
Thanks in advance for the help.

You will NOT get better hardware for the price. The only concern I would have is getting it replaced if it ever breaks within the warranty period. LeEco is under hard times right now. However, for the price I would not be concerned.
The bootloader on the USA version is super easy to unlock. This will not be a problem.
Custom ROMS. There are several really good ones using Nougat. They are rock solid and have great performance. AICP and Omni are two of the more popular ones. OREO is also in the works for the phone, so expect a ROM with that OS in the future.
Last official version of stock OS on USA model is 21s, but you can install any of the other stock ROMS from international versions of the phone.
There are multiple rock solid Nougat ROMS which means you will get Vulkan support.
Buy the phone!
Could you provide a link for $175?
Well, I took the plunge and recently received the phone in my country, After using it a few days I got to say that I´m in love with it.
I installed lineage on it and after that I installed the blackscreen kernel to overclock the phone to 2.4 ghz and tweak the performance a little, indeed with the Lineage rom open gl 3.2 and vulkan becomes avalaible and the performance of the phone
it´s like night and day compared to the stock kernel that came with it.
For the price I paid to get this kind of hardware it´s definitly a bargain, I heartily recommend this phone but only to the people that are willing to flash a custom rom on it, because leaving this phone in the stock kernel is a crime to the 821 snapdragon that comes with it.
is the chipset and the kernel versions are related to each other ?
I have observed that phones using Snapdragon 617 chipset are you using the kernel version of 3.10 checked with Moto G4 Plus and on other phones like nubia , BlackBerry dtek, etc
while phones using Snapdragon 430 chipset are using kernel version 3.18.. for ex redmi 4, etc
so my question is kernel versions like 4.4 and other newer versions can't be developed by manufacturer or what? for Snapdragon 617 chipset

They are not at all related to each other. Even in high ended smartphone you will notice 3.18 or above. As it is the minimum requirement for oreo build to function.
They are updated by oems and are maintain by company and are updated via ota.
As lenovo owned Motorola has officially announced oreo for moto g4 plus. As a pain in **s they have to update kernel first(which takes hell amount of time) n then have to push oreo update.
I think i was clear here.[emoji6]

If you're referring to Moto, not a chance. It's too much work to rework the kernel to a such a new version. I suspect that is the same reason there's a much higher delay around with phones that release with Oreo (very few at this time, even the OP5T comes with Nougat).
