Kingelon A2800 MTK6592 hexa core?

[Cyborger]

In this program I see only 6 bars:

Any test you run is desktop mode including mtkdroid tools will all show same fake info as every app gets the same info, boot into recovery and use adb to get info about your phone.

Not true. MTK Droid Tools will often detect whether an SoC has been faked or not. That's not saying it can't be tricked. But it's an excellent first line of checking.

If you're going to recommend a method, consider giving the exact details for the OP as to how to perform the test for cores.

I am writing instructions, and checking them on my phone already.

---

Anyway below are some tests, performed in recovery mode will get you info about your phone.

If you post your output I will go over them with you.

My commands can simply be copied and pasted into cmd window.

Code:

cat /proc/cpuinfo

cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/kernel_max

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/present

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

busybox free -m

output:

Yes this is fake.

1 GB Ram not 2 GB Ram

1.5 max cpu speed not 1.7

You have a mt6592 kernel, but only 6 cores

Your kernel will support 8 cores, however only six cores are installed on your phone.

---

Here I ask OS what kernel and or hardware is avaible, both should report same.

Code:

cat /proc/cpuinfo

cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource

Here I ask kernel how many cores can it support, number is always 1 less as Linux counts 0 as 1 so 7 means 8 cores.

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/kernel_max

Here I ask OS how many cores installed

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible

Here I ask how many cores running

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/present

Here I ask what is the max speed the cpu can run at.

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

Here I ask how much Ram is installed.

Code:

busybox free -m

So does this mean that it has something like mtk6591? how this even possible to change processor name and fake RAM?

So does this mean that it has something like mtk6591? how this even possible to change processor name and fake RAM?

Very easy to fake results, in desktop mode, once phone boots, all info on phone is written to different text files, so someone can write a script to change the info in those text files, to what ever they want. all apps simply read those text files and reports what it sees in the text files.

No app can be trusted in desktop mode, no app can get info on phone without reading the texts files, so always boot into recovery to get correct info on your phone. In recovery mode nothing is running, so all text files are truthful.

Would be nice if someone who also bought this phone could confirm this issue because nowhere on the internet i found such thing like fake processor. Are you sure that android cannot misread processor count? or maybe there are such thing like force redetect cpu? maybe it can be somehow installed wrong kernel or other software? I am not as experienced as you, so I have much questions to ask

Well it's not the phone, it's where the phone comes from.

Dealextreme seems to be selling the fake phone, notice the bench mark

22503 much to low for 8 core



now google kingelon A2800 MTK6592 Octa Core 1.7GHz Smart Phone aliexpress scroll down look at pics you will see bench is 28159 for 8 core.

also the bench shows 8 cores

8 core get 26000 and above, what score do you get?

[Cyborger]

It scores a bit over 22k    

[vampirefo]

Way too low for 8 core.

Your results are fake, Where did you buy this phone? do you have cwm recovery installed?

Ciao puoi indicarmi un link per scaricare la CWM ? Grazie

Hello you can show me a link to download the CWM? Thank you
