I have questions about my phone's hardware specs - General Questions and Answers

Hello everyone, I'm new here, I don't mean to take your time but I have questions concerning my phone and I hope I get an answer. I use a Tecno spark go 2021 and I'm trying to check which cpu my phone uses cuz I didn't see it in settings, I only saw the CPU type. So I downloaded two apps to check the info
The info from CPU z showed I have Helio A22(MT6761V/WE) 1.8ghz but on Mediatek site, Helio A22 has 2.0ghz so I decided to use another app(devCheck), and it showed that the device uses Helio A20, with the same details but different name although I think it's using an Helio A20 but I'm still confused cuz I don't know which one to believe. Guys please do you Know the exact processor my phone use?
Here is the image from my device settings

This is the one from CPU z app
This is the one from devcheck app
My second question which is what brought me here is,
I'm trying to download a game, I met every other requirements but I need armv8-a cpu which my phone doesn't have, I tried to check the specs for the two processors mentioned above since I didn't know which one is on my phone. articles I saw online for both CPUs showed they use cortex A-53 and they have armv8-a (Helio A20 and A22). But using the hardware checking apps, it shows that the CPU uses Armv7 which makes me wonder if mediatek is not being truthful about their CPU specs.

In every Android OS's file named build.prop, located in /system partition, it is written which CPU architecture ( instruction set - 32bit or 64 64bit ) is supported. IMO all other CPU related infos given are irrelevant.

Hello everyone,
I have completed uploading the material needed to run properly upload the firmware inside our ZOPO ZP100. I write this post in Italian in order to disseminate knowledge gained through sites Russians, Chinese and English, including this wonderful forum.
The address to which the material is found:
http://www.4shared.com/folder/K3Y1TksN/zopo_zp100.html
password is: zopozp100
Inside the 4shared folder you will find a tutorial (in English) and two folders, respectively, with firmware 2.3.6 and ICS. Both are accompanied by software for uploading, and you need to run the rooting, as well as the latest version of the market.
The instructions on how to upload and run all the updates are in the tutorial.
I hope you all can come in handy.

I’ve a win7pro & Ubuntu 13.10 64bit, on both installed drivers, adb, etc. I tried a lot of different tools and packages. I can prepare flashable package to CWM recovery, but to <3e> I can’t. I can’t mount system and every time ‘installation aborted’.
I don’t know what I can write more…
Maybe someone can help me and another users
Any idea?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my English

I'm not sure about it but I think that 8960 has 1.7 Ghz. Coz it's inside Xperia SP. Cores of both phones (XL and XSP) are same (Krait 28 nm) the only difference is frequency. And that might be why it shows 8960 i've noticed it too when I used custom kernel.

If im not wronk 8930 is same as ours,but with LTE module.So our chip is striped 8930 and maybe because of this program show it like that.
P.S. - Missed the first picture,sorry Maybe the first program is bugged...

This is because custom kernel and oc. Thunderzap and Phantom use some stuff from msm 8960 kernel so this kind of apk with hw detection can see ur cpu like it is msm 8960 not msm 8230 which is really inside our XL

How to flash/update firmware on MEKEDE MT3561 8.8 inch no buttons headunit

Hey folks,
I have purchased this MEKEDE android headunit that is fully touchscreen with no buttons nor sd card input
Android 7.1 (fake its 6.0)
CPU: Quad core ARM 53 1.3GHz
RAM:2GB DDR3
ROM:16GB
Platform:MT 3561
Resolution: HD 1024*600 Capacitive Touch Screen

}
The unit stop working for some reason (blank screen) so i purchased a new core board from seller and he send me one with wrong firmware inside not adopted for my model, part of screen is not touchable
because of wrong resolution i guess and i cannot access some function even with a mouse
i ask for correct firmware and seller send me one hct4_PX5_9.0_ota(20190815)(cannot post link [new_user]), i extracted it and put it to the usb disk, push reset and nothing happened
i pushed reset again and start finger the screen many times until it show detected but it say cannot find update files as shown bellow
I searched this forums and find many updates for model MT 3561, updates works but none of them solve the screen resolution issue, i tried to access recovery mode using many methods without success
i also tried to update with wrong files so the system auto reboot to recovery mode but i cannot select any option with no buttons, tried to attach a usb keyboard to it but it did not works too.
i read here that i can flash core board off of the unit with otg usb but the core bord is different as shown on picture and i think that apply only to Rockchip corebord
seller support is terrible, he reply only once per week with useless information like "are you able to extract the zip file i sent ?" and then i have to wait for the next week to tell him "yes"
any suggestions ?
Thanks
Unit is not an MTC(x) and SOM is not rockchip.
Suggest searching to find an appropriate thread.

The BLU Zoey Smart is a bad phone. There's no getting around that. KaiOS stutters at the best of times with 512mb of RAM. The BLU Zoey Smart has 256mb of RAM.​
Here are the full specs:
RAM: 256MB
Internal storage: 512MB
Micro SD Card: Up to 32GB
Processor: Spreadtrum SC7731ef/SP7731ef
Front Camera: VGA
Back Camera: VGA
Network bands: GSM quad band, 3G - 850/1900/2100
Display: 2.4 inch 320x240
Battery: 1,000mah
Device Codename: Pike2
However, all hope is not lost. Every manufacturer I have asked has not released the kernel source for their KaiOS phone. BLU on the other hand, was all too willing to give it out.
Here is the kernel source for the BLU Zoey Smart: https://github.com/Qiangong2/android_kernel_blu_pike2
NOTE: You will need to clone https://github.com/yonglongliu/vendor in the same directory as the source code.
NOTE 2: I am still piecing together the kernel source to get it to build properly.
There is no touchscreen on this device, so CWM or PHILZ are most likely the only recovery options.
Here is the build.prop: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Xw3ngwKcFx/ if anyone wants to look around
Also, here is a link to the firmware in case you destroy your Zoey Smart: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/blu-stock-firmware-repository-mediafire-t3853065
NOTE: You need Spreadtrum ResearchDownload to apply the firmware, which is found here. A guide to use ResearchDownload is found here
I have not extracted the pac file to view the actual firmware, just viewed the build.prop, so if someone would be willing to do that, it would be great.
Unusual additions:
The build.prop manually sets and reports the SAR value, which I am pretty sure is illegal or at the very least, very shady.
Reserved for future
No surprise, but the kernel source is broken. Yay -__- Thanks Spreadtrum.
sprd_dcam is the issue, I'm currently looking for a fix, but Spreadtrum kernels are infuriatingly not filled with commits. Most kernels usually have "updated kernel" as the commit message instead of cherry picking.
If anyone has experience with SPRD Kernels, I'd appreciate any assistance.
