Hello all,
I'm a new guy in this forum, and french (so sorry for my poor english !).
I'm working on a electonics design and manufacturing firm, and we want to devellop in a new hardware platform, with a CPU Texas Cortex A8 Gamme Sitara Model AM3517. Today, this hardware platform is working with a distri called Angstrom, based on a 2.6.32 kernel...

Hi, Bryandeep -
While it is technically feasible, if the following is true:
The new processor is from the same chipset family, and
The new processor pinout is identical. and
The support chipsets can handle the higher speeds & currents, and
You can purchase the processor (or, get a manufacturer sample), and
You have access to and the talent for using a surface mount desoldering / soldering station.
... In reality, the answer is "No". You would be much better off (and probably a ton cheaper) to go buy the fastest and most powerful Android tablet that is available on the planet in about 3 months.
That's why you aren't seeing many (any?) posts on CPU "upgrades" for smartphones.

[DISCUSSION][Q&A] Broadcom SOC hardware and driver related infos

Hello everyone ! So I opened this thread to talk and get some clarifications on some of Broadcom SoCs. People with knowledge are wellcome to share some light !
Let's get started ,today the culprit is Broadcom Bcm2157 SoC . Tried to find detailed hardwer informations ,but I only managed to find that this bad boy it is a dual core 500mhz armv6. No infos about gpu or memory interface. So I looked deeper but i found nothing. Then i found about BCM21553 , armv6 with a supposed VideoCore IV Gpu. Could be possible bcm2157 to have the same GPU? If yes , how easy would be to port the android gpu drivers from 21553 source code to 2157?
Found my answer ..... really dissapointed !

[Completed] I need a compatible rom for i-joy asix

Good morning.
I took two months searching and testing roms, but I have not found anything, and in the end I sought where to ask for help. I hope to be asking for one at the site and appropriate section.
I am seeking a rom compatible with i-joy asix tablet. These are the specifications:
Processor - Cortex A7 - 4 x 1.2 GHz
Chipset - Allwinner A33
Graphics - MALI-400 MP2 @ 350 MHz
I have opened, and in some chips missing numbers so the following information may be incomplete.
Processor - Allwinner Tech A33 Quadcore E9069AA
Chip unidentified - 4XP223 6113AC 6AX1
Skhynix (ram?) - H5TC4G63 AFR PBR 423 V 1410542200H X010016
Chip unidentified - CG8T2 BC 4452 M18L2677AM
Motherboard - TJ A23 Q88 V4.0_20140815
I have tried various roms, but none works correctly. In all the display fails, or does not turn well, or the touch pad does not work.
I am very interested resurrecting this tablet, it is the only one that I have for the child to read. I wish I had money to buy another, but it is not so
Appreciate it your help with clues on how to do or recommendations roms.
Thank you very much

Help me To develpment Android 4.4.4 in Smartphone old (Android Ice cream 4.0.4)

Sorry, I do not translate English, I do not write or speak English.
Well the phone is national of my country Brazil, well at least it is mounted here, which I think is more certain to say.
Model: Philco Phone 500;
Processor: Qualcomm msm8625 (ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l);
GPU: Adreno (TM) 203.
In Philco's site there is nothing about this smartphone, what I want for help is a way what I need to have for testing / build / port ....
I've never been interested in android development, that's when I came across old smartphones that google apps do not support anymore, it reminded me of XdaDevelopers, and I want to help people with old smartphones and some light to them.
Sincerely, Gabriel.
I had forgotten, I sent a screenscream of the smartphone with screens of the app "Device Info HW" link HERE (imgur)
