The full set of specifications  includes an eight-core big.LITTLE HMP (GTS) CPU paired with a PowerVR  G6230 GPU, providing some of the best horsepower for graphics and  compute available right now.  </i></b><br /> <br /> Allwinner is one of the leading semiconductor companies worldwide,  serving the mobile market with a wide range of high performance, low  power products that have been instrumental in enabling the emergence of  numerous low cost devices, including tablets, phablets, portable game  consoles, set-top boxes and many others.<br /> <br /> The company’s first two SoCs with PowerVR graphics, the Allwinner A31 and A31s,  were a hit in emerging markets and were the driving force behind a new  wave of affordable mobile devices for most of 2013.  More recently, 4G  tablets based on the Allwinner A31 and A31s were shown during CES and  both chipsets were given a boost in system performance thanks to an update to the latest Android 4.4 KitKat operating system.  Since their official announcement, Allwinner A31 and A31s SoCs have  been used by top-tier brands worldwide including HP, MSI, Pegatron,  Foxconn, and Kurio, making them some of the most successful quad-core  tablet processors in 2013.  For example, the Allwinner A31s-based Compaq 7/7+/8 range from HP has  been very popular in emerging markets due to a combination of  high-performance processing from Allwinner and Imagination, premium  features and affordable pricing.<br /> <br /> <i><b><strong>Introducing the Allwinner UltraOcta A80 processor</strong></b></i><br /> 2014 is set to be an exciting year for Allwinner. Their new UltraOcta  A80 processor offers a significant boost in graphics performance.  Whereas A31 and A31s integrated a PowerVR SGX544MP2 GPU, UltraOcta is  upgraded to a PowerVR G6230 graphics processor. This means a twofold increase in graphics and compute performance as well as an update in feature set.  </span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD0WxcGUe6ornyTw9ZkenMWEBiKXAA49dFMrbBJhO8CgSaHVLK0KCZUGszUi3mllltL5c0uCP20ueFziZaT_mWpZAUfV1knf_i6K9NHJLowOwLJOqUbC0k3GDTMdKuV09_u-AIpzbAt04/s1600/a80.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD0WxcGUe6ornyTw9ZkenMWEBiKXAA49dFMrbBJhO8CgSaHVLK0KCZUGszUi3mllltL5c0uCP20ueFziZaT_mWpZAUfV1knf_i6K9NHJLowOwLJOqUbC0k3GDTMdKuV09_u-AIpzbAt04/s1600/a80.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; display: inline ! important; float: none; font: 300 15px/22.5px "Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="-moz-font-feature-settings: normal; -moz-font-language-override: normal; background-color: white; display: inline ! important; float: none; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.5px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">The  PowerVR G6230 GPU is based on the Rogue architecture, which has been  designed to support a variety of APIs, including OpenGL ES Next and 3.0,  OpenCL 1.x, Renderscript, and DirectX 10.<br /> <br /> OpenGL ES Next is  perhaps the most interesting of all, considering that it brings very  exciting features to OpenGL ES 3.0: compute shaders, indirect draw  commands, enhanced texture functionality and more. Since the PowerVR  Rogue architecture has been designed with a forward-thinking approach  for ultimate efficiency, Imagination has been one of the first mobile  GPU vendors to announce our support for this new standard. Consumers can  rest assured they are getting the best possible graphics engine  available, which will be able to run the latest fully-featured  applications.<br /> <br /> PowerVR support for DirectX 10 enables OEMs/ODMs looking to build  Windows RT tablets to access the best GPU available at the moment. And  considering Allwinner has always had a cost-conscious approach to apps  processors, end users can now have access to more affordable devices  which make no compromises when it comes to cutting-edge, low power  graphics technology.<br /> <br /> <i><b><strong>64 cores ticking inside the PowerVR G6230 GPU</strong></b></i><br /> Perhaps the most exciting aspect of the PowerVR GPU inside the  Allwinner UltraOcta A80 processor is what’s under the hood, so let’s  take a brief look at its architecture.<br /> <br /> PowerVR G6230 has two shading clusters, each with 32 FP32 ALU cores. This adds up to a total of 64 cores which are able to provide the required GFLOPS needed to crunch through the most demanding graphics and compute applications.<br /> <br /> But the performance-optimized PowerVR G6230 GPU also has a dedicated  FP16 engine designed to bring superior performance to most modern  applications and UIs. This mix of FP32 and FP16 units actually takes the  number of compute units way beyond 64 and provides the perfect balance  for high performance, low power shading.   </span></span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimgrrd85wMrXICb7_Ftvs3W5wK3YF8GG4_h5xA5CnHus08NwirbkUDVRwwU2NfpnuH5ttA1pVEhEY-DaXvqwKUN3xaljvvj3vHxCB5QfUcWFv5YFJVlje2fwjgdgIEbwKiEFpZV3fpA2c/s1600/octa80_2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimgrrd85wMrXICb7_Ftvs3W5wK3YF8GG4_h5xA5CnHus08NwirbkUDVRwwU2NfpnuH5ttA1pVEhEY-DaXvqwKUN3xaljvvj3vHxCB5QfUcWFv5YFJVlje2fwjgdgIEbwKiEFpZV3fpA2c/s1600/octa80_2.png" /></a></span></div><br /><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="-moz-font-feature-settings: normal; -moz-font-language-override: normal; background-color: white; display: inline ! important; float: none; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.5px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">To  complement the raw GFLOPS performance, PowerVR G6230 has a number of  features designed to decrease memory bandwidth and reduce system power  consumption. These features are best described by one term: PVR3C  (PowerVR triple compression). PVR3C includes finely-tuned hardware  technologies which enable lossy texture compression (PVRTC1/2 at 2bpp  and 4bpp resolutions), lossless image compression (PVRIC) and lossless  geometry compression (PVRGC) support.</span><br /><span style="-moz-font-feature-settings: normal; -moz-font-language-override: normal; background-color: white; display: inline ! important; float: none; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.5px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">  </span><br /><span style="-moz-font-feature-settings: normal; -moz-font-language-override: normal; background-color: white; display: inline ! important; float: none; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.5px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"> Finally, the PowerVR Rogue architecture has been upgraded to a scalar-based processing enginethat  sets it apart from the vector engines used in competing GPU designs.  There are numerous advantages in going to a scalar processing  architecture, including higher resource utilization and easier optimal  software development. This ease of development benefits both our  compiler teams and developers, since it no longer matters if they  vectorise their software or not.</span></span></span>

This should install a new device on your system (VID_1f3a_PID_efe8). This device may show with an exclamation mark in Windows Device Manager, this doesn't matter and can be ignored. Now edit the firmware name (.img file) that you have downloaded so that there are no Chinese or Foreign characters within the filename.<br /><br />Without attaching your tablet to your PC run 'LiveSuit.exe' from within the Livesuit folder.

Connect the USB cable to your tablet and hold down the volume+ button, keep the button pressed.<br /><br />Connect the other end of the USB cable to your computer (keep that volume+ button pressed - I know, it hurts by now)<br /><br />Using your third hand, straight after attaching the cable, and whilst still holding down the volume+ button, start pressing the tablet power button repeatedly (approx 1 press per second for 10 seconds is enough).

You will see a % complete progress bar during the process and will get a dialog saying OK when it's done. It is a non-linear progress bar, so even though it appears to be stuck at times, don't panic.<br /><br />Turn your tablet on and you will have the new firmware, be happy/sad based on the fact that it is better/worse than your previous firmware.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>tutorial via <a href="http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/36789-livesuite-guide-allwinner-a1x/" target="_blank">www.slatedroid.com</a></i></span></span><br /><br /></div><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="350" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/tO7Leb72eVI?feature=player_detailpage" width="550"></iframe></center>

As always, Allwinner is working closely with its partners to  ensure that A23 tablet designs are stable and ready for market.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">“Competition in the tablet space has heated up this year, and OEM  brands need better processor choices in order to boost margins and gain  market share,” noted Jack Lee, Director of Marketing at Allwinner.  “The  dual core A23 processor will help tablet brands win more business in  highly-competitive emerging markets and in growing markets like  educational tablets”. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Power, performance, and cost are critical factors to winning market  share.  Tablets powered by the A23 are highly cost-competitive, thanks  to Allwinner’s expertise in highly-integrated processor design.  High  on-chip integration of peripherals like MIPI DSI, LVDS, USB OTG/Host,  etc reduces overall system costs and tablet cost.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Allwinner’s core partners are scheduled to start delivering dual  core A23 tablet samples in October.
