Kernel info says snapdragon 675? - Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers

I'm on the MIUI global 10.3.1.11 stable (PFJMIXM), stock kernel 4.14.83-perf+
I accidentaly stumbled upon this:
Code:
getprop | grep platform
Which reports back with:
Code:
[ro.board.platform]: [sm6150]
So that's the snapdragon 675 product name.
That made me check out cpuinfo.
for the first cluster and:
Code:
CPU part: 0x805
for the second cluster:
Code:
CPU part: 0x804
Those are part numbers pointing to the snapdragon 675 as well!
Then I checked the sysfs: here the cpuinfo_max_freq is reported as expected - 2.208GHz on the fast cores and 1.8GHz on the slow ones. Not the 2 x 2GHz & 6 x 1.7GHz of the 675 SoC.
I doubt that we got cheated, and I'm guess it's just a question about how xiaomi kernel devs made the device tree, and reused parts from the snapdragon 675 drivers?
Could someone with some knowledge about kernels/AOSP/device trees confirm?

Interesting......

Lol! Are u kidding??
Just go to the qualcomm official website and check the difference between 675 and 730. Then check GPU-Z app. U will be surprised

Exactly, most applications, lik cpu-z reads from the Linux files as I did. So cpu-z will just report 0x805 0x804, which is 675 chipset od numbers as far as I can tell.

U really kidding... U can check. There is gpu differences 675 = Adreno 612, 730 = Adreno 618 GPU. Then Go check one more time.

My Find 5 has Snapdragon 600 !

Just got my Find 5 (few months old with CM 10.1 installed) and according to "CPU Identifier" app, it has a Snapdragon 600 (8064T) processor, a quick Google reveals that Oppo released a Find 5TD in China a few months back with the 600 clocking @ 1.7 Ghz.
Antutu says my max clock speed is 1.512 Ghz though.
Maybe "CPU Indentifier" is telling lies or maybe CM 10 is holding back my processor speed cos it thinks its a Snapdragon S4.
If it was CPU z then it will say that. Same thing happened on my nexus 4.
But I am told some of the oppo find 5s where updated
Sent from that one guy with the cool phone
If I helped you hit that Thanks button!
Yes, this is possible, due the fact that OPPO has upgraded soms Find 5's. But I thought they where all set on 1.5Ghz, if you want to can install a custom kernel and clock it right to 1.7Ghz.
Just installed CPU Identifier and I've got also a Snapdragon 600! AWESOME!
where did you guys buy your oppo find 5's from? I read that they refreshed it with the snapdragon, but all the places that sell it still list the old specs

Actually the updated Find 5 has the same processor as the Nexus 7 (2013), it's an underclocked Snapdragon 600, but on paper it's a S4 Pro Krait 300.
really ? one more thread about it ..... no and no.
Oppo Find 5 is a APQ8064 SoC , which is a Snapdragon S4 Pro
Its not one of those :
APQ8064T
APQ8064AB
APQ8064M
Find5 SoC is the same as Sony Xperia Z. All about the S600 SoC in a find5 is just rumours and have never been proven that it was correct

Mine has a Snapdragon S4 @ 1.51. I use cpu-z.
With some kernels you should go up to 1.9GHz... but IMHO OC on these devices is useless.

What's your CPU PVS bin #?

Just out of curiosity, I 'd like to know what everyone's cpu PVS binning is. This makes little difference unless you're trying to undervolt, but it doesn't hurt to know.
Non-Root How To:
Use a file browser (I used Root Browser) and navigate here:
Code:
/sys/module/clock_krait_8974/parameters/table_name
Open up "table_name" as a text file. Mine read: qcom,speed3-pvs7-bin-v1. My PVS bin # being 7 on a scale of 0-15. 0 needing the most volts, 15 needing the least at corresponding frequencies (I think I got that right). Overly simplified that would be higher binning=better, but again this makes very little difference.
Here's a example of stock volatges at 2.5 GHz for the MSM8974AC Rev 1:
Code:
PVS 0- 2.5GHz @ 1.12V
PVS 7- 2.5GHz @ 1.05V
PVS 15- 2.5GHz @ 0.97V
Here's a thread from the OnePlus One forums that's helpful if you want to know more:
http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/info-cpu-binning-concept-overclocking-t2817105/ (Note: Moto X's chipset seems most similar to the MSM8974AC Rev 1 or at least has the same binning)
Thats pretty interesting, never heard of this before.
Mine says 6. Guess mine is using a bit more volts?
Mine says 3. Huh?
5...v1 which according to one plus forums means 2.3ghz?? Sad times v2 is 2.5 apparently
Mine said pvs4, but what does that mean?
Is lower better, or higher?
I googled, but noone else seems to be sure either.

No where did you have this from?
The moto x has the msm8974ac and this one has 2,5GHz... According to cpu-z 2.46GHz (or more exactly 2457.6 MHz says antutu device info page)
Msm8974ab has 2.3GHz.
Yeah, the X uses the AC @ 2.5GHz. I think that's what the speed # means. The version in "table_name" is the PVS version not the CPU version. Not sure what that is though. Maybe the parameters used in sorting?
Mine says 8.
8 here as well... Damn had a 13 on my old moto x lol

ZE550KL's Real Processor

So this past few hours, I've been doing some research about our device ZE550KL (The 3GB, Octa-core one) and I've noticed that our processor runs at 1.7GHz which is a false info obviously, if you look at the CPU-Z's report. Our device in real world, runs at 1.5GHz. Take a look at this. It clearly states here that our device runs at 8x1.7GHz. And then there comes the Snapdragon 617 which runs at 8x1.5GHz. It makes sense if our device has the 617 instead of the 615 considering the frequency, obviously. It really bugs me out, and I don't know if I'm making any sense right now, but that's just my theory. We already have our device giving us false specs, it won't be any surprise if the processor is false too.
Correct me if I'm wrong. :fingers-crossed:
Edit: And also, if you look at 617's Antutu v6 score, it sits around 40k-50k. I re-ran my phone just a while ago and I got 49K. Another reason to consider that our processor is 617 on disguise.

Which gpu is in the SOC?

So this is the screenshot of hardware information about my 6 gb varient device which shows it has adreno 512 gpu. While other websites say it has adreno 509 gpu. What is going on please check your SOC and if possible post screenshots to verify what's inside.

Showing the same on my 3gb variant. Prolly a glitch in the app, I guess.

How? Each and every app says 512
same here noticed the same in Aida64
Can anyone confirm by looking at hardware directly? Like by contacting a youtuber?
Its a bug in the app, shows the same in Redmi Note 5 Pro.

Fortnite on Mi A2

Why Fortnite doesn't work on Mi A2/6X, Mi Pad 4 and other Snapdragon 660 devices and Fortnite work on Samsung Galaxy A9 2018 (it's a Snapdragon 660 phone) ?
https://twitter.com/anothrandomuser/status/1105563355111219205
I have hack the apk of the fortnite app and be able to download the game trust me , it's very slow and very buggy, you don't need it,,
Also servers kicks you out because of the lag,,,
Tried with the lowest setting possible :/
@Mashrmallow Fortnite doesn't support any SD660
Device. I tried modifying the apk and installing it on my Stock A2 but its lags like crazy not worth it

I think if Epic Games willbad the support for sdm6660 in Fortnite, the performance will be better because I already play on Samsung Galaxy A9 2018 (Another sdm660 device) and it's not buggy and it's payable

Mi A2 has adreno 512 gpu but fortnite requires adreno 530 gpu. If this can be sorted and graphics be a bit reduced fortnite can be played easily.

Fortnite support Adreno 512 You because Samsung Galaxy A9 2018 (sdm660) run it officially, Fortnite just didn't add compatibility for other sdm660 device
I checked for the specs to run fortnite, it shows that adreno 530 or higher is required.

I know but in the official device compatibility list it show Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) and it's a sdm660 phone (Adreno 512) like the Mi A2/6X

You probably don't even know the difference between CPU and GPU but it is normal, this is what I expect from the average fortnite player. Your phone, as well as all other phones, have both a CPU (the sdm660 for example) and a GPU (like the adreno 512, for example). Two phones can have the same CPU just like the A9 you are referring to and the A2 but have a different GPU. So probably the A9 doesn't have an Adreno512 GPU but a better one.

It's a CPU+GPU board (APUs?), two phones with the same CPU will always have the same GPU (at least for Snapdragon devices). The Galaxy A9 have the Adreno 512, it's just marketing.

For your information I know the difference between CPU and GPU and A9 have a Adreno 512 like the Mi A2 (It's the same CPU and GPU than a Mi A2 but only the A9 can run fortnite with a sdm660) and for a snapdragon processor case the GPU can't be different for the same processor (exemple: a Adreno 509 is impossible to be in a phone who use a sdm660, only a Adreno 512 is possible to be in a phone who use a sdm660)

yeah its because fortnite not allowing weak devices to play so that every phone user has the same advantage ( no lags and lack fps )
but it seems to make no sense since u said that the A9 can run it up but Mi A2 can't so yeah epic games is just so bad at maintaining the mobile version #_#
