A question for those with a 64-bit rom - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Does dolphin emulator run at an acceptable speed?
I might consider going with a 64-bit ROM if it does.
Also, what apps can 64-bit roms run that 32-bit can't?

because its meant for armv7 and our device is not supported.
and its not open source so no way to install it

Actually there is an experimental branch of Firefox for ARM v6.
Unfortunately none of the versions I tired has worked.
Anyway, if you want to start it somewhere, here is link to another forum at here on XDA.

It is armv7 only & that's why it wont work.
But Firefox is open source! There's a guide to getting & compiling the source code here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android
You would need to modify the source to make it compile properly for arm v6, those modifications might not be easy.
There is a note on their site about armv6 https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android#ARMv6_.28experimental.29
Sorry, the experimental ARMv6 builds are no longer available. They contained bugs that caused them to crash immediately, so they were no longer useful for testing. (bug 697205 is filed on getting these builds working again.)
While we'd like Firefox to run on as many phones as possible, we are focusing first on devices that can run current versions of Firefox with acceptable performance. As we improve Firefox's speed and memory use, it might become possible for us to support ARMv6 phones in the future, but we are not actively working on it now.

The bug report gives more information: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697205
There are a few alignment bugs that need fixing, armv7 automatically fixes bad alignment, armv6 crashes.
ok
BTW, how do I know if my mobile is armv7 or 6 ?
I could find a place in my mobile where it says it's version number..

ARMv6 or ARMv7 is not your phones version number!
Your XCD35 has been built around the Qualcomm MSM7227 SoC (SystemOnChip). It contains a processing core (the main core) developed by ARM. This core is based on an architecture, named ARMv6.
Okay got it..
Thanks for helping me out.. I would have surfed more and more to find a way to install and finally I came to knew that it is not possible..

WP8 9900 Build dump (x86)

Hi,
This is (as far as I know) the first dump of wp8. It's based on the 9900 (emulator) build and is meant for cooking roms (for WP7/8 devices)
It has all 51 languages and all 3 screen resolutions
Good luck devs,
Download link:
http://htcfanboys.com/download/sianto1997/?action=view&file=14516
If you use this in a rom, please mention me.
greetz
WOW!Thank you very much!:laugh:
Do you know that emulator have x86 version of WP8? It's impossible to use it. So your dump is really useless, even more than me.
Shhh... It's easy to dump the emulator, just mount VHD.

Offline ISO weights 1.6GiB. But it's much faster to download using torrent than downloading from unknown hosting.
Sorry but in the future is possible to have a WP8 Rom on a WP 7/7.8 device?

Yes and no. As it's possable to run on the hardware (all 1st gen are the same CPU wise and 2nd gen are pretty close still) and even Microsoft said so, there are no drivers designed for it. Nevermind the OS is designed for a dual core CPU, so performance could be a big hit.
The HD2 was the ONLY Windows Mobile device to get WP7 and the only reason why that is was because Microsoft used the HD2 in testing WP7 and someone "leaked" the drivers needed. If things follow suit, the chances of getting a WP8 rom running on a WP7.5 device might be like finding that needle in a haystack...might happen but, I would not hold my breath.
I also would love to see it tho.....

Fire HD 10 (2019) which architecture APK's to use? Newbie

If I want to sideload an APK which version APK do I use for this tablet? I have gone to an APKmirror website and I see if i find an APK there are different types to download. I do not know which type architecture of APK I should download for this Fire tablet.
These are the types of APK architecture.
armeabi-v7a
arm64-v8a
x86
x86_64
Thanks for your help

I believe you should use armeabi-v7a

HD 10 2019 have 64-bit CPU, you may try to install arm64-v8a, if application does not work - install v7a version.
A53/A73 are V8 arch

In short: arm64-v8a. The 9th gen HD 10 uses a big.LITTLE 4+4 config of Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57, both use Armv8A arch.
FYI:
armeabi-v7a: Arm's Armv7 arch, latest 32 bit arch.
arm64-v8a: Armv8 arch, 64 bit.
x86: Intel's 32 bit arch
x86_64: 64 bit x86
And the winner is?
I was just curious as to which version you got to work with your unit. Thank you.

I think i know how it works, just like with Fire HD8, the CPU is set to work in 32 bit only, that means we can't really use Armv8 apps and we have to use armeabi-v7a. That's my opinion which may be false considering that i don't really own HD10

Thanks, it's very simple to test, download any ARMv8 only app and see if it gives any errors during installation, if it will give somethin like this: "This app can not be installed on your Tablet", that means my thoughts are correct and we van only use armeabi-v7a apps

App not installed, that means it's not a 64bit device right?

It is a 64 bit device but with 32 bit instructions, A.K.A we can only run armeabi-v7a apps

I see thank you for the guidance @Xinto
so whats the workaround or how do we go about installed 64bit apps because some dont have the 32bit variant
Per my earlier post - should the google service apk's be able to update themselves once installed or do they need to be manually updated via the tool? I get the notification on the tablet that they need to be updated or google services won't work. (essentially) If it matters, it's on a 10th gen HD 8.
Thx

Hey, did you find a way to install 64 bit apps?

no i think it has to do with the OS and theres no way to replace the Os

Question Since the hardware seems open what OS would you run?

I have been thinking about it more and more and was curious if there was anyone planning on porting android to the steam deck.
Why? If that's what you want get an odin
Why not just install Android x86 on it?

An odin is nowhere near as powerful even at 9 w a loki is tempting but it wont be out for 6 more months
SteamOS on internal drive and Win11 on microSD.

exactly
no need for porting, this device supports ACPI
bringing over some of its linux drivers to android x86 should be pretty simple as i believe its supported in mainline (amdgpu driver)
