exynos vs qualcomm (8.4 LTE) - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Which is better to buy? I tried to find differences, but with no luck....
Also all these custom roms and kernels works for both versions?

There are various postings concerning Exynos versus Snapdragon...

[Q] P930 on TI OMAP

Is it possible? Can't post to that tread so started new one.
Found this on chinese 'ebay'. How come it's on omap 4440 SoC? Any guesses?
It's Nitro HD,don't be misleaded.
The specs on the Chinese site are way out to lunch. The P930 features Qualcomm processors with Adreno 220 graphics. The Optimus 3D (P920) features a TI OMAP 4430 with PowerVR SGX540 graphics.

What if only for US, Europe and Korea? Maybe for china & india australia & RSA p930 will feature omap4440? possible?
I don't see that being likely at all. I wouldn't jump to conclusions about such things.

I think it's possible, why not? Samsung is known to have different SoC's in the same phone brand (different model numbers), depending on the market and carrier it will be on...Take the Samsung Galaxy Note as a perfect example. There's currently 2 variations of CPUs and likely a 3rd when it finally comes to the US!
I don't see why LG wouldn't do similar. Like maybe an LG Nitro HD (P930A or P930B) for China with that OMAP4440? Who knows. I haven't heard any news about such, but it could happen.

T700 roms

Any roms available for the 8.4 yet? Or is too soon yet? Also since we are on Exynos are chances for CM 11 pretty slim? I'm not an expert on chipsets but would it be accurate that it's easier to develop for the snapdragons vs Exynos? Thanks
We can hope

[Q] Which processor really are in Tab S ? (8.4 and 10.5)

According to the info appearing at Samsung, TAB S tablet has an "octa core processor", there is no reference about type or model. or brand.
Info appering at PDADB is:
SM-T705 , SM-T705C, SM-T705M and SM-T705Y: all have Samsung Exynos 5 Octa 5420
SM-T805, SM-T805C, SM-T805Y: all have Samsung Exynos 5 Octa 5420
SM-T805K, SM-T805L, SM-T805S: all have Samsung Exynos 5 Octa 5433
This forum says about TAB S : Qualcomm Snapdragon 800
I live in Colombia, we have here models T705M and T805M.
A local vendor says both models mount an "Adonis Prime+ XMM7160" processor
Can anybody clarify this mess ? are there really different processors for same model ? if so, are there any performance difference between those processors ?
Thanks,
Update:
It seems "Adonis Prime" is an alias for Exynos 5420.
Yeah, It`s a right mess different cpu for different markets and configurations.
Even the Samsung website for my region only gives the cpu speed and quad or octo core, but not a brand or model number, octo is normally exynos and quad is snapdragon at the moment.
Best to check with the supplier before purchasing if you want a certain model of cpu.
Never heard of the "Adonis Prime+ XMM7160" processor" will have to do a search, EDIT: Intel modem soc ??? see link below.
Some Samsung android tablets use Intel atom cpu, but normally the low priced choices.

Practically you will have a 5420 CPU in all but a couple of ones, the 807 AT&T etc ones. So expect the 5420 almost certainly. Watch out your local vendor has genuine stock, exynos with intel mobile chip is what you will get if genuine.
That quote seems wrong a bit wrong with me.

Thanks for your answers.
From the info I got since yesterday, it seems:
1. Exynos 54xx series is called also "Adonis":
One source (there are several similar): http://tech2yantra.blogspot.com/2014/04/are-you-getting-real-galaxy-s5-latest.html
2. XMM7160 is a modem LTE chip (from Intel):
Source: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us...e-communications/mobile-xmm-7160-1-brief.html
With this info, I guess the vendor is really very precise: Adonis Prime + (plus) XMM7160 are really the chips used by a Galaxy Tab S. (CPU + LTE modem).
It could be a little confusing because the name "Adonis" is not quoted normally (I found several quotes to "Adonis" in S5 in sites from Romania, Russia, India, etc)
What do you think about this "interpretation" ?
They do all these study's on what names and words work in different country's, some words that are fine in the west, might be offensive in some country's as they mean different things.
It certainty is confusing, so stop using words and use number, but not 666, 13, 7777 where does it end.

Note 7 advice

Hello all,
I am quite interested in this phone cause I am searching for a Nexus 6 successor and I depend on wireless charging. Sadly there are no high end smartphones which will deliver this feature anymore.
Therefore I have two questions:
1. At this time there are two threee custom ROMs for the exynos variant and no for the snapdragon. Will that change?
2. How likely there will be an AOSP ROM and what version (snapdragon or exynos) will suffer most from bugs then?

I know, that is the reason I am asking two questions about ROM development and advice about choosing snapdragon or exynos
Ah I'm sorry I misunderstood. I can't speak for the snapdragon but I have the exynos and it's awesome. Excellent battery life and no heat issues. Sure I have read that the exynos is better for rooting but haven't looked into it in depth as I'm happy on stock for a while. I'm sure someone will be able to help soon.
get an exynos, more development

Is the cross development section for Exynos or Snapdragon?

Hello,
I recently got a hold of this phone, Exynos variant.
I was wondering if the "Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development" section is for Exynos or Snapdragon ROMs.
Can someone let me know?
Thank you.
Both, but most information pertains to Exynos. Snapdragon has a lot of barriers and walls to unlocking and installing custom software.
