Which Processor does my SGSII have? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys is there a way were I can find out what processor my SGSII has? Because I know there is a Tegra version and a more common Exynos version. I believe that I have Exynos because its says in Setcpu 1200mhz... But I can use Tegra Zone? Thanks
Edit... Nevermind tried to install a game and said I needed a Tegra 2 . Lol

All the 9100's are Exynos. The Tegra's are 9103's. I also believe they're supposed to have a sLCD display vs. SAMOLED+.

Goto the market and look for Chainfire 3D and google for the plugins - You can play Tegra2 games then

nah its the GTX 480 in SLi..
AMD 430 iirc, which is a distant relative of the xbox chip (but about 100X more feeble). It's standard on old snapdragons, newer ones have a gruntier 460.

Can you think of any reasons we wouldn't? It's designed for smartphones and we have devices using Tegra 1.
It would be nice to get a serious answer...
thanks... It's nice to know...
The GPU is an AMD Z430 (OpenGL ES 2.0), it doesn't use the same drivers as the other HTC devices using snapdragons SOC, it's usually a wee bit faster though it's locked to 30fps.

Wow, a customized platform? I figured they'd be using something based on the reference board (HTC that is).
Thanks for the info, guess you learn something new every day.

The GPU and CPU are the same chip, it is also a lot of other things on the same chip like GPS...
the X10a uses othe chip then X10i
'a' uses QSD8650 processor 'i' uses QSD8250
and the GPU is same for bought and it is Adreno 200... YOu can find other infos on wiki...

Will netflix work for the Atrix 4g?

Does the Atrix have the right specs to run Netflix?
Last month, Qualcomm announced that its new Snapdragon platform will include both the hardware and the DRM protection needed to stream content from Netflix. That won't help owners of older Android devices but should ensure that newer handsets, such as the Revolution, are capable of delivering Netflix to their users.

You answered your own question. The Atrix is not on any Qualcomm chip, let alone one that supports netflix. It will never happen.

the cpu does matter, something about Qualcomm snapdragon being more secure than other processors. why do you think they are releasing it only on phones with snapdragon processor so far? hopefully netflix will come to other phones soon.

Really? Here's a quote that seems to indicate otherwise:
•"Netflix is using the Tegra 2 development platform to bring the Netflix experience to Android super phones and tablets. We're working closely with NVIDIA to ensure Netflix takes full advantage of Tegra's outstanding acceleration and security capabilities." -- Greg Peters, Vice President, Product Development at Netflix

Yeah I'm having the same issue. I think it might have to due to the qHD screen resolution.
Here is the thread with the device check disabled. Let me know if it is working for you. I dont have Netflix.
i have little green bar at bottom and color is ghosting like
Yeah I download that app about a week ago. The green bar and ghosting effect can get on your nerves but I can live with it until Netflix comes out with official support for the Atrix.

No, it's because of the GPU not the processor. The games will only work when the developers decide to make them work with the Mali-400 (the GPU the S2 has). Could be quite a wait.......
Alas a lot of games will do this to us since we use a relatively new graphics encoder. Don't blame Samsung though as Mali-400 (encoder) is completely OpenGL compliant. Unfortunately developers haven't bothered to code these games yet in a readable manner for our GPUs.
This kinda sucks since games like Riptide GP won't work even with the use of Chainfire 3D. Which is a great shame since the previous Galaxy S does...
It's because the developers are not coding it using industry standard OpenGL. Instead they use Nvidia or PowerVR optimisations which are proprietry and not supported by the Mali GPU (of course it won't because only the self-branded GPUs would support them). Developers need to start using industry standards.
I expect the Gameloft games will be ported relatively quickly, Modern Combat 2 HD can already be purchased from the Android Market for the SGSII, so give it some time.

Not actually interested in this Modern Combat 2 HD because I think FPS games suck on phones but I went and bought it now for my Galaxy if these sales will make Gameloft more interested to make games for our phone.
Would like to see Samurai 2 on my screen but apparently it doesn't work yet? At least if I try to find it in the market, I get an error message that couldn't be found.

its compatible with our phone . it just doesnt run on gingerbread . its for froyo . it doesnt run on gingerbread even on the galaxy s
Samurai 2 works perfectly for me.
I will try Nova 2 HD, but Nova already works perfectly.
Nova 2 works on my galaxy s2 without chainfire but it takes too much time to load up though gameplay is without lag
also the phone gets really hot while playing it

Shadowgun THD on Galaxy S3.

Hello guys,
I recently purchased Shadowgun for my Galaxy S3 (european version with Exynos Quad Core + Mali-400). I first purchased the THD version, thinking that it would work with Chainfire but in vain as it's a Tegra 3 only game (fortunately I bought it only 0.99€). Then I bought the regular version, still amazing on S3.
So, I was wondering if a THD version existed for S3 as the 1.0.1 modded THD version simply closes when loading a game on S3, whereas it loads fine on my S2 (and yet it's the same GPU here).
So my question is: do you know if some devs are on a 1.1.2 THD apk hack version (allowing Leftover expansion pack) that would run on Galaxy S3? I would donate for this, no problem.
As I own twice the game, I don't think it's here some kind of piracy. I hope you'll understand.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
David

Thanks but I did a LOT of search before and I don't find any result for the THD version for S3. But maybe some people would have heard some rumors on a S3 version or something...

What cpu is really in my amaze

cpuz reports qualcom snapdragon s3 scorpion
Wikipedia says its the apq8060 variant
Cpu identifier says it is the msm8260 variant
This forum says msm8660
Also most aosp roms dont set scorpion but rather cortex A8 for compiler directives.
Curious as to the actual hw in my amaze.

I know for sure that it's a Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 msm8660. That's according to my knowledge. The VilleC2 (Non-T-mobile) One S C2 has the same chip. That's how we can port Sense 4 a bit easily. :good:
S3 msm8660 i guess

There are 3 variants of the s3 scorpion from qualcom.
Getting mixed messages as to which one my phone has depending on application or documentation.
Just curious. From a kernel point of view it is a msm8660.
From many applications like cpu identifier it says msm8260. Wondering if that is a carrier difference from tmobile. Mine is telus.
Moreover can I tweak rom builds accordingly.
