The CPU/GPU is listed on Motorola website as OMAP3610+PowerVR SGX530, whereas according to TI's latest Technical Reference Manual, OMAP3610 does not actually exist. According to the said Manual, specifically from page 198 to 202, there are OMAP3611/3615/3621/3622/3630 running at various stock speed, and all of the variants have a built-in full speed PowerVR SGX530 GPU. And since OMAP3611/3621/3622 only come in "CYN" package, which can't have bolt-on memory chip (Package on Package), OMAP3615 does not have any video processors (both IVR2.2 and DSP) at all, the only remaining candidates are the OMAP3630 variants. Between this, the stock speed and various report of driver recognizing it as OMAP3630-800, it's quite safe to draw the conclusion that OMAP3630-800 is powering the Defy, and Motorola gave the wrong spec as they did with Droid 2.(*)

Defy - 3630 or 3610/3615 ?
Hi ,
Although many people believe that defy uses OMAP 3630 instead of 3610/3615 or something else, you can only get this conclusion from the 3D/video performance or features defy supported. But the problem is, can you be sure?

I wrote a small native C program and read out the value of CPU's register that controls the OMAP FEATURE. The value is 0xC00. You can check the 36xx TRM:
at focus.ti.com/pdfs/wtbu/SWPU177B_FinalEPDF_12_04_2009.pdf
The values means that defy has a IVA 2.2 accellerator 2.2 and SGX .

So the CPU is neither 3610 nor 3615 . It is definitely 3630-800.

I think this is a convincing proof. If you still dont believe it, the only way is to open your defy and take a look at the ID on the chip...

BTW: I only tested on my phone, which is UK 2.21 version. Not sure for other version....

I have made this simply test:

i have underclocked the cpu to 300 mhz and played smoothly a 720p (mp4 1280x720)... so it has to have the iva 2.2 (as the a8cortex alone can not handle a 720p video...on vplayer or rockplayer where is used software decoding the video was getting 0,5fps)

omap3630

P.S." Droid X and Droid 2 get leaked Gingerbread builds with updated MotoBlur"

Sto znaci da bi uskoro mogli vidjet i port za defy (jer imaju slican hardware). {#}
