We're having an embedded video day here at AAS, at seems. Anphase, the guy who did the i8910 HD petition and then met with Samsung, has now done a video showing most of the changes for the upcoming big new firmware update and I've embedded this video below. Summary: similar partial implementation of kinetic scrolling as on the Nokia X6 and 5530, but improvements as well in Camera and Web. Anphase also shows some of the Qt and native OMAP3 demos.
Read on in the full article.
Looks promising. At least it appears Samsung hasn't blown off 5th edition entirely. There's a lot i think this phone is capable of, given the right support from the vendor. Thank you to Anphase for following through and getting Samsung to realise that the i8910 owners have a voice.
On a side note. Minus 20 in Oslo?!?!?! Brrrrrrr.
This is the same as the XXIL2 / XXIL4 firmware which is fairly readily available on the net.
The firmware is LEAKED and is a BETA though, so there are various bugs still to be worked out.
I hope the update will come for scandinavia - i might the I8910 again 😉
