Hi
I just want to know a couple of things (NOT that I would ever try this myself but im interested in the info).
1) Is it possible to install quad core firmware on dual core tablet?
2) Is it possible to 'spoof' the android system into thinking 2 CPUs are 4?
3)If you install dual core firmware on quad core machine will 4 cores or 2 show up?
Thanks in advance Ive just bought a very dodgy tab that isnt what it claims and I need to identify it.
Cheers
Chris
1) It seems not possible.
2) Some intel processor could process 4 thread in 2 physical core like intel Z2560 for android, but still it's still probably counted as dual core anyway. I don't really know the details since I don't have any intel android device.
3) I don't know.

On the Net appeared some phones equipped with Mediatek Dual Core processor MT6577T, allegedly clocked at 1.2 GHz
On the Mediatek site there is no mention of such processor.
I do not mean that it was simply an oveclocked MT6577.
Someone?

i have mtk6577 and we can't overclock to 1.2, when seller say 1.2ghz it is 1ghz 6577 and gpu 0.200ghz. so 1.2ghz
The MT6577T does appear to be an actual variant of the MT6577 processor indeed running @ ~1.2GHz.
The Lenovo P770 is sporting one i believe.
From what i`m seeing on most Chinese sites its listed as an Arm Cortex A7 dual core. So it can be a completely diffident soc . Also MTK has changed to the TSMC 28 nm process for the 6589 so they might have changed the process for the 6577 also . That would mean a Freq bump and lower power consumption .
mt 6577 run on single core1 ghz cpu. and mt 6577t run on dual core1.2 ghz cpu.
example lenovo a800 use mt 6577t that's run on dual core 1.2 cpu

Thats wrong, the MT6577 IS dual core! MT6575 was single core....
I dont think that they started to manufacturing newer MT6577 variants, because it is already on the market: the 28nm dual core MT6588.
The 28 nm quad core is MT6589 (to round up the whole scene). MT6588 and MT6589 are Cortex A7 variants (way more less power consuption as cortex A9), and comes with SGX544 GPU so they are preferred.
To be more confusing: i remember when mediatek started to sell the first dual core mediatek CPU-s: they called them MT6575T, and later renamed it to MT6577. Now it isnt the case. I think T is simply the sign of the extra +200 Mhz

MTK6577T just an overclocked MTK6577.
I want to dual boot Ubuntu with Android. Well it is very successful in Nexus devices. But I am having other device namely xolo q700 (1.2 ghz quad core processor, 1gb ram, 4gb rom, currently with the 4.2.2 version Android).
Can I install Ubuntu dual boot on my device or any other android device of above specified config.

Someone have the firmware for Tech Pad 781+?
Allwinner A20 Cortex A7 Dual Core with GPU mali-400 integrated
7" 800X400
1G RAM DDR3
I download (Tech Pad --781+.zip) from the official page but isn't a .img, it's a folder (FirmwareInstall) and one file (wmt_scriptcmd) and i don't know how install it.
Hi! Did you get any help back on 2014?

I know it was a long time ago, but I have the same problem you had. Did you find how to install this firmware? I am desperate, I can't find information anywhere.
Hi all, im new to the site so please forgive me if i have posted this in the wrong section/thread.
I have recently got a 'Allwinner A31s QuadCore Tablet', here are the main specifications of the tablet:
Brand & Model 10" quad core tablet
Product Type Tablet PC
Screen Size 10.1"
Operating System Android 4.4.2
Processor Type/CPU Type Cortex-A7
CPU Manufacturer Allwinner
CPU Model A31s quad core
CPU Speed/Processor Clock Speed Clock at 1.2GHz
RAM/ Technology DDR III
RAM Memory 1GB
GPU Mali quad core
Hard Drive Type NAND Fast Flash
Hard Drive Capacity 8/16/32GB
Extend Card Supports an external TF card up to 32GB (not included)
Keyboard Touch Screen
Touchpad Technology 5-point capacitive screen
Max Resolution 1024x600
I was wondering if there is a custom firmware i can flash on this tablet, ideally i would love to be able to flash a 'CyanogenMod' firmware on this tablet.
I have searched a lot but have been unable to find any custom firmwares for this tablet, maybe i have looked in the wrong place or maybe there is no custom firmwares available ???
Any help/links/advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks to all in advance. :victory:
Hey there!
I currently have a tablet with a similar disposition:
Trio Stealth G4 7.85
It's based upon a similar CPU (clocked at 1.5GHz - ?)
I do not believe that XDA has ROMS/recovery images for us currently. You could try playing with something made for other tablets (with the same CPU), but I'd be careful. It's very difficult to find stock recovery/ROM for these devices.
Did you guys find a firmware? I need one too for the same tablet or at least the same specs. Mine had a root done to it and all important apps were deleted. all left was the system app. which doesn't allow for much. I need to reinstall the android firm ware or other OS. I need help too
Hi I was wondering if there is anybody on
