H313 , Only 2GB seen by system (solved: fake specs / fake "bios" reporting) about miniarch HOT 6 CLOSED

Well,
As Anwol Q86x (H313) has 8 ram chips and uses 512Mx4 chips...It means you have 2GB device.
(512Mx4 chip is 256MB chip. 8x256MB chips seems 2GB to me...)

from miniarch.

From this table I understand that I can get 2Gb with 4 446 chips, or with 8 846.
mine are 446...
(i'm confused)

Well. Both in above table are 2Gbit chips (pls see table title).
8 chips, 2Gbit each giving 16GBit total.
As each byte is 8 bits, 16GBit=2Gbytes
Hope this helps you!

ps: false labeling (2GB box sold you as 4GB) is almost normal practice in this market.
You know - it is bussines style by Chin***...

ok, I was misleaded by "cpu-z" and "device info HW" under stock's android ... also installing termux and running "free"... all of them reported 4GB, but probably just took the info from TV box producer's "BIOS".

i'll try do play with ramdisks under android and see what happens. 🤣

You are right.
Each "hyh9 k4b2g0446c" chip is 2Gbits ,or "512Mx4" (M= Mbits) ... 8 chips are 16Gbits = 2GBytes.
Problem solved.
My fault. XD
