After being veryyyyyyyyy deceived by the 5mp of the K850 I preffer to choose a nice slim looking phone like the G705 rather than a new mpx marketing trap of 8mp...
Also if the G705 will have the far better 3.2mp of the K800 it will be great!!!

In the full specs of the G705 they say it's compatible with Themes in format 4.7...
What will be the plus on 4.6 themes?? Will we finally be allowed to change icons?

Basically the G705 is more aimed at internet capabilities, that's why it has Wi-Fi (for a less-than-expensive device). To watch YouTube videos, a special YouTube client was included on the phone (presumably like the one on LG Viewty) |

C902/C705/W760/W980 are already 4.6 & 4.7 themes compliant, nothing new. and no you can't change icon.
New version of themes are just for the new menus/new popups/media menu, etc, it must add some new tags in the xml files, things like that |

I hope it will not be a newer DB than K850 because it's already hard for XS++ team to crack it!

I think this is a mistake. It can't use two plaforms at once. The true is that G705 uses 4.7
The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand... Mediar's Site |

Well that means it should be compatible with 4.7 themes only.

Don't worry still the same platform DB3150, they've only reached the 3rd release of this platform (firmware are R3XXXXX). With the previous platform they have reached R10 !

HAHAHA  .... You made me laugh..... The same was for the previous platforms... DB2010, DB2020... I know they were having hard time with CID49 when it appeared in DB2010 phones... THe CID49 K750 couldn't be modded a looong time.

I took 1 year for the XS++ team to hack the K800,for the K850 they are trying since April...but still pessimistic for a near support of A2!
I know it's a 2.4'' screen but is it me or in the pics the G705 looks like if it had a 2.6'' ?? |

Well I don't know what to say more about the DB3150 support of XS++... No one knows the exact date of release of the next XS++ so the only option we have is waiting... Some day it will be possible...
