Help Stock 4.1?

[DMajor239]

Hey guys I'm thinking about buying this phone soon, but I have a question. Is it possible to run stock 4.1 on this phone?
Thanks

Yeah the current stock version of this phone is 4.1.2

 

[DMajor239]

No I mean the actual stock android with no added skins or anything, like a nexus device.

 

[kwknott]

Oh you want a pure (vanilla) build of 4.1.2..

As of now no. The closest you will get would be to install cm10. It's based off AOSP which is the official build. It has a few added apps and some personalization options that go beyond the Vanilla build. It's as close as you'll get.

Right now the cm10 rom is alpha stage so not everything works but progress is moving right along

Oh ok thanks for answering my question. I have another though, how does this device respond to games like asphalt 7 or 8? I've looked around but can't find any gaming videos that aren't just temple run or subway surfer

 

[kwknott]

Honestly couldn't tell you. I don't game alot. I have heard people say once phone is overclocked it's pretty good for games

Yes games run really nice on this phone if you get jerryscripts kernel. Overcooked gpu and uncapped cpu to 1.8 ghz.

 

[DMajor239]

I don't plan on over clocking it that much cus I don't wanna kill the battery lol, but I've just placed the order.

 

[kwknott]

Honestly I run mine at 1.8ghz versus the 1.2ghz stock and I don't see a huge difference in battery life

 

[DMajor239]

No I mean as to wearing the battery out. But I'll see for myself.

I suggest running at 1.5. It seams the most stable.

Technically, 1.5 is uncapped, 1.8 is OC.

At 1.8 we're approaching S3 benchmarks. Same GPU as an S3, and same chip minus some L2 cache. Should handle anything an S3 can.

Running 1.5 stable is a reasonable expectation. Whether you'll be able to run at 1.8 is a crapshoot, luck of the draw. Some can't, there's no guarantee.
