Intel claims the camera can take 10 pictures in under a second in full resolution in burst mode setting. Lava says the device can produce five hours of battery life with 3G browsing and can deliver 45 hours of audio and eight hours of talk time.
The device run stock Android 2.3 and will not ship with the latest version of Android Ice Cream Sandwich. For its part Lava says an OTA Ice Cream Sandwich update is in the works.

Dude its a general thread that's why i just want to inform to every one...

Development on XOLO?
Is there anyone here developing for this device or no one has even bothered so far?

I did a YouTube battery life test on my Xolo. Set to auto brightness. Watching the 2 hour, 6 minute 2012 Google I/O took exactly 50% of the battery.

I guess people would be a little bit skeptical in buying a 22k lava...

Standby time is pretty sweet. 2 days, 20 hours standby, and 2:15 of screen time.

The only thing is that it stuck due to brand name of mobile if it will launched with Samsung then it will grab the market rapidly !

now it's available for 17k and an ICS update is now being rolled out,wanted to buy it but it's reviews seem that camera us not upto par with say s2 but considering the pric, it's pretty good deal:thumbup:
and guys i have used it on demo at a shop its of pretty good build and there is no lava branding.

[Q] Choosing an Android phone w/ keyboard: Desire Z/G2 or Droid 2 or other ??

I have to change my phone and my only req. is a hardware keyboard.
I've been a hardcore, diehard Windows Mobile user for over a decade.
I feel forced to go Android because WP7 smells sort of iPhone-esque clone (no file access, no multitasking, no cut/paste, etc...)
To my surprise, I've found there aren't quite a lot of Android devices with keyboard out there
Fortunately, I've seen a couple of interesting soon-to-be-released phones:
The HTC Desire Z / T-Mobile G2 and the Moto Droid 2 WE (world edition) / Milestone 2
Both will have Froyo 2.2, 5MP cam 720p HD video rec, 3.7" multitouch screen & all the standard shizz
G2 / Desire Z advantages:
- It is HTC
- It has Sense onboard, which I am familiar to
Appart from that, and curiously enough, the Droid 2 / Milestone 2 is better in every other aspect:
- Better screen res (854x480 vs 800x480)
- Faster processor (1000MHz vs 800MHz)
- More internal memory (8GB vs 1.5GB)
- Slightly smaller size (60.5 x 116.3 x 13.7 mm vs 60.4 x 119 x 14.2)
- Lighter weigth (169 gr vs 180 gr)
- Slightly bigger battery (1400 mAh vs 1300 mAh)
- Better flash (dual LED vs single LED)
My Q: Which one to go ?? or is there any other device to consider ??
Any advice / oppinion / suggestion appreciated

Interesting benchmarks...
And you're right:

Anyway it will not be upgradeable to WP7, and as I stated before, WP7 is expected to be as closed as a religious man's mind

Obviously some of you guys haven't read up on Adreno 205 GPU that comes with G2 & its MSM&230. Try reading this article first:
http://smartphonebenchmarks.com/for...t-compare-to-other-gpus/page__pid__65#entry65
Adreno 205 is going to perform better than PowerVR SGX530 found in Droid X. It may even get pretty close to PowerVR SGX540 found in Sammy's Himmingbird.
Watch out for this table, I'm sure someone will load their Quadrant result as soon as it becomes available:

If only. It would be the almost perfect device. What have smartphone manufacturers got against big screen qwertys anyway!??!?
(yeah I know there are a couple but, only a couple! The Z's screen is too small so I don't count this. Samsungs Galaxy S Pro? The Galaxy is being slated due to bugs)
edit: I have to be honest though, i'm waiting for WinPho 7 as it appears, walled garden aside, that it could integrate very will with Zune and my Xbox subscription. If it launches and has full and complete MS Ofice/Exchange integration then its very possible I will jump straight on to a Dell Lightning - assuming it records 720p.

Cool phone! I am using Galaxy tab to Android but my phone HTC diamond crashed before few months and my primary phone now is crappy Nokia 3100 I am seriously thinking about this, I love iOS view and I love Android options! I am in love with that phone!!!!
Processor: Qualcom MSM7227
Display reulotion: WVGA screen, 320*480 ==> how come WVGA similar to 320*480?
Battery: Built-in Li-on battery, 1350mAh
Built-in Memory: 512MB ROM / 256MB RAM
about the processor, it's the same with my galaxy ACE, but mine runs at 800 MHz (default). if u checked at pdadb.net, those series will have default clock at 600 MHz, i doubt if it can run on 1 Ghz
the rest of specs are the same with galaxy ace
259.99 USD? it is 170 USD marked in the site!(999RMB)
I skimmed through the video, it seems fake.
where in that video does it show it's an android phone?

Is that a USB key in your pocket or a dual-core computer? Today, Norwegian company FXI technologies showed off a USB stick-sized portable computer prototype, complete with a dual-core 1.2-GHz Samsung Exynos ARM CPU (same as in the Galaxy S II), 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI-out and a microSD card slot for memory. Codenamed Cotton Candy because its 21 gram weight is the same as a bag of the confection, the tiny PC enables what its inventor calls “Any Screen Computing,” the ability to turn any TV, laptop, phone, tablet, or set-top box into a dumb terminal for its Android operating system.

The Cotton Candy also runs arm compatible versions of Linux, and is said to be compatible with Windows 8 ARM.
Thoughts? I think this would be great for low end computer replacement, or a small gaming system for emulators along side a bluetooth controller and a 32gb memory card. Even a small media center hub for your TV, download Netflix, Hulu, video apps, or whatever streaming and media apps you want and boom, HTPC right there.

Apparently it's a portable Exynos soc, so it won't be that hard to port ICS to that little bad boy when Samsung pushes the update for the GS2.
I'm thinking win8 with arm support to be a real PC

And who says there is no need for a quad core mobile cpu. Although the chip they are using is nice, and tegra 3 or quad core Samsung soc would be awesome on this device.

[Q] Graphics performance - Bad Hardware or Bad Drivers?

I have been using Galaxy SL since last 10 months and one thing that has bugged me since I bought it is bad graphics performance (both on GB & Froyo). Now, I am not complaining about the low powered GPU but simply it's bad performance.
I just wanted to confirm if anybody else here suffers from the same and whether it's a software bug or a hardware problem.
Here are a few comparison pics (compared to my Xperia Neo V):
Galaxy SL (Left) , Xperia Neo V (Right)

Sprinkle:
Note the appearance of water
Paper Camera:
It doesn't work the first time you start it, but after restarting the app it works although it breaks h/w acceleration for rest of the apps such as camera, video playback etc.
I also own a ZTE Blade and a Acer Icona A500, and both of them perform the same as Xperia. Can anybody else confirm similar issues on Galaxy SL? Or should I go for a replacement?
I just downloaded sprinkle from the market and im not having your problem. The water is the same as the Xperia one. Maybe you should ask for a replacement from Samsung? Faulty GPU maybe? You never know

Thanks for checking it out, can you try it maybe after playing a video or doing some gaming. As, mine also works fine after restarting the phone but after doing some work like gaming, watching videos it breaks as in the screen shot. Can you also try Paper Camera? I'll appreciate your help.
I am still covered by warranty so I may go for a replacement.
PS: I have never OC'd my phone and also tried the graphics solution mentioned in the forum (editing the egl.cfg and deleting libGLES_android.so) but no solution so far.
I tried Sprinkle too and the water is weird (to avoid misunderstandings:http://i.imgur.com/C3U1ml.jpg).
I'm using CM7, I don't know if the performance are the same as stock roms.
Anyway the Xperia neo V has an Adreno 205, which is better than our PowerVR SGX530, if I'm not wrong.

Thanks for confirming my doubt, I guessed this could be a widespread problem. Moreover, it doesn't concern the GPU power, as a ZTE Blade with Adreno 200 runs it better and I think it's equivalent if not better to our PowerVR 530.
So, what could be causing it? Bad drivers? Does all PowerVR 530 devices face the same issue?
oh?!
mhh.. very interesting :?
The GPU isn't the best, but from missing textures in one of the benchmark apps, i'd say it's incomplete drivers.
Just for Root rom
Use root explorer .. just remove system/lib/egl/remove libGLES_android.so

I have already mentioned in my second post, that I am using this method. AFAIK, it just gives a little boost in benchmark scores nothing else.
I was wondering if Optimus Black users also have this problem...

Questions about honor 6 performance

Hey guys,
I have few questions about my honor 6's benchmark scores and usability. Would be gr8 if someone can clear my concerns out.
I am running emui 3.0 btw.
I recently ran the gfxbench 3.1 in my honor 6 l04 and found my Manhattan and t rex scores to be Lower than others using honor 6.got 6.8 and 14 in Manhattan and t rex respectively with the power saving mode in normal.and then switched to smart mode and the scores went down to 4.8 and 9.7 in both while others with honor 6 get 8.3 in Manhattan and 17 in t rex. Not sure why this is happening. Device did not seem to heat too much either,temperature was below 39.
The other thing is that I am not able to have more than 18 apps open at a time though my ram usage never touches 2 gigs..I am unable to have more than 18 apps in the task switcher whatsoever. Is this some kind of a restriction with honor 6.
And the device is not rooted.
Any insight on these two situations would be hugely appreciated.I would also like to mention that antutu,browsermark and kraken returned scores similar to others with honor 6..
Thank you.

Guys I also do not have the performance mode under notification panel>shortcuts..
Sent from my H60-L04 using XDA Free mobile app
I don't either have the switch in shortcuts area, though it was here before updating to emui 3.0 (ie. on 2.3).
As to your other issues, I have no idea. Maybe you could try it on the 720p mode or something, though that's just a "maybe".
Regarding this 18 tasks issue, I have never gotten myself so far as to have so many of them open at the same time because I'm too much concerned with battery life and I always close all the apps, so can't help much here too.
Update
Just tested it and it indeed doesn't display more than 18 tasks, but it does not kill the ones not shown, so it shouldn't be very troublesome in my opinion.
I read your first post again and noticed you said your antutu and other benchmarks are similar to others. This could probably prove what I said earlier about the 720p mode. The greatest impact it has is on the gpu, so it would make the scores higher for graphics heavy benchmarks, which gfxbench is one of.
Yeah,even I thought of the same with gfxbench.But all the reviews claim to have run it at 1080p.In anandtech review they have scores for 720p as well. I guess it's because we are not able to unlock the gpu core to its full clock at least within gfxbench due to the lack of performance mode. From what I've seen,gfxbench too fails to unlcok the gpu before the benchmark as evident from the difference in scores between smart and normal mode.Can you go as far to run the gfxbench on your piece and give me the scores,just to make sure what I am getting is about the same as others running emui 3.
Sent from my H60-L04 using XDA Free mobile app
Sure I can run the benchmark on my device. Just tell me which gfxbench do you use because I can see two of them in the Play store (3 and 3.1)
Thank you,I used 3.1.
Sent from my H60-L04 using XDA Free mobile app
Here's what the benchmark looks like on my Honor in 1080p mode and power saving set to "normal" (I think it's the equivalent of "ultra" from emui 2.3):

As you can see, it performs even worse than yours. I've run the benchmark in a tpu case, it could possibly have some tiny impact on the heat dissipation and such.
I think the main reason you're seeing discrepancies between your score and that of others is the version of the benchmark. I don't recall seeing 3.1 back when I was doing such benchmarks for myself so it's got to be sort of new. You've been most probably looking at 3.0 benchmark results which contains quite a bit different benchmarks under the same names, so it can be confusing.
I tried 3.0 as well with no difference. The difference is most probably because of the lack of performance mode in 3.0

Even I got the same scores, I ran the benchmark multiple times and I mentioned the best score I got.
