Impending Motorola Moto X 1 passes through GFXBench specs listed
.jpg)
Motorolas upcoming smartphone and their so-called flagship, allegedly named as Moto X+1 has made its way to the GFXBenchs database. The rumored Motorola made smartphone with model numbers reading like, XT1097 have made it to the graphics benchmarking solution GFXBench, earlier this day, where its scored 740 frames onscreen at 11.9 frames-per-second and 700 frames offscreen at 11.3 frames-pre-second.
And when we get deep into the internals of the looming Motorola Moto X successor smartphone, we can understand that the yet to go official bellwether handset, Moto X+1 will be running Androids version 4.4.4 KitKat out of the box, and we hardly believe it will be upgradable to Android L release in the future, as the phone maker have already promised us to seed the existing flagship device, Moto X to the next version of Android operating system. There is also a Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, ARM Krait Central Processing Unit, with clock speed of 2.45GHz, Adreno 330 Graphics Processing Unit, 5.2-inches Full High Definition touchscreen of 1920 x 1080 resolution pixels, with at least five fingers gesture support, 10 gigabytes of on board mass storage, 1.8 gigabytes of Random Access Memory, 12 megapixels primary camera on the back, capable of capturing 4K Ultra High Definition videos at 3840 x 2160 pixels, and with features like, auto-focus, face detection, flash light, HDR photo and touch-focus. On the front theres a two megapixels secondary snapper, that shoots footages at Full HD 1080p. Lastly for sensors, the phone lists, accelerometer, compass, gyroscope, light sensor and proximity sensors with initial connectivity over Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS and Near Field Communication (NFC).
So, according to what we got our hands on at the moment, the phone here seems to be a well make over their predecessor handset and present flotilla leader, Motorola Moto X. To get things much clear, Motorola Mobility is holding a Press Conference in Chicago, United States on 3rd of the next month, where it is already rumored to launch a total number of four Motorola branded hardware, with one being hinted as the next Moto X phone, another one being an smartwatch, which is the Moto 360, a wearable Bluetooth in-ear headset and the next generation Moto G handset.

Stock system dumps for HTC One HTC One X
Last two days were very exciting for HTC community, especially for HTC One X users (Android 4.2.2 with HTC Sense 5.0 update described here). However, there is always one problem when it comes to HTC updates - no RUUs (ROM Update Utility) officially available do download for regular users (HTC One Developer Edition and Google Edition seems to be the only exceptions). Why RUU is that important to us?
These executable (.exe) files for MS Windows are installers of complete firmware, including for example system or data partitions. Not having latest RUU means:
- users using custom ROMs cant download latest OTA from HTC,
- developers have no system dumps they can work with.
Ad. 1) If you want to download and flash latest OTA, your device must have completely stock system partition and recovery. Every OTA update is checking MD5 of each file on system partition to ensure .apk patch can be applied. If even one of 1000 files wont match, OTA update installation will fail. In this case you need to flash the latest official update you can find (even one year old) and later download official OTA updates.
Ad. 2) There are few workarounds, however none of them is as good as having a RUU:
- adb pull /system in custom recovery mode*
- cp /system /data/media/dump in custom recovery mode*
- nandroid backup
- boot partition can be taken from inside firmware.zip inside OTA .zip package or it can be dumped using dd if= of=/data/media/boot.img
* adb pull, cp or dd commands must be executed from custom recovery mode, otherwise system dump will be missing few important files or these files will have 0kb size. Also, keep in mind that adb features are heavily limited on stock un-rooted device. In case of dd command, root access (su) is needed to make such operation.
Thats why I created my own stock system dumps (as a custom recovery .zip packages) for both HTC One and HTC One X. I believe this can save a lot of time for many XDA users and developers.
