So what has anyone noticed about the new firmware? I can't tell a difference in anything. Every bug I noticed before is still present, except that Agile Messenger starts (but crashes when you try to do anything with it). I was hoping for something a little more noticeable...



are you kidding? one of the biggest bugs was removed, like jah said - now we can add appointments in fc without opening calendar first.. else, the phone is always with more free memory than before. opera is also faster browsing via wifi

@ ares -- Yeah, I did notice the one that Jah had mentioned, but he had already mentioned it, so I didn't repeat it. I guess I can't tell much difference with the speed of Opera or more memory. Oh well. I'll just take your word for it and hope for the best .

Has the Connections Manager application "Log" disappeared for anyone else after the update? I used to have a lower portion of that application that showed recent/past connections, but there is nothing there now. I have used multiple connections since the update, but they don't appear. It's not really important, but I just wanted to see if I was the only one.

I've had much less crashes, but it's far from over.

1. Still some Kern EXE problems that shut down the contacts.
2. Still a problem where you can't take contact pictures from within the editing of the contact without getting a coarsely blurry picture
3. I noticed that all extra sounds that I had previously stored in the phone memory/Music/sounds were not there after the restore. Strange...

But all in all, a step in the right direction. Now they just need to resolve the Unified Inbox broblem with the backup manager.

Hi all !

Did my first update yesterday, everything went fine, except the time 2 hours for downloading !!! Probably you guys flooding the server

Now I've r7a001, r4f01,r3b01 before r4b001,r4f01,r2a04,r2a01

I've use the phone only for 3 days before puting the new FW, anyway I still missing a few features, that could be easy solved by software:

Would be nice to have a timer in the FM radio / Media player
Would be nice to have the FM playing uninterrupted when set for alarm
Would be nice to have higher volume
Better battery !?

I don't recall installing this game.

will it make any difference if i try doing the software update again?




anyone?




Do a Master Reset and then Restore. It looks like there are caches etc that are not removed by the flash update but the Master Reset clears all data.
Join the 'dots' and see what happens

Screen calibration has always been there under Tools>Control Panel>Other>Setup Wizard
