Hi all,

As i am having really bad day i have not updated yet but it seems this latest update pushes the N95 8GB even further ahead of the competition.

Here are some of the differences as reported by Steve Litchfield from All About Symbian rather than copying what he has found all details can be found at this link.

Once i am more awake i will be updating and can't wait as these really look like some major improvements.

@intelegent115


I'm about to do the update now but am actually surprised there hasn't yet been an upgrade for the E90 giving it demand paging.

The added things in this latest update seem quite amazeing and a second update so soon after the last shows Nokia's commitment to continuing to improve their devcies.

As although we already have em Tube the adding of Flash Lite 3.0 to the browser really is quite amazing and unexpected. I was seriously considering selling my N95 8GB and returning to the E90 but with these latest set of improvements that plan is now on hold if not cancelled.

@Sony Ericsson Indonesia

Well then there is something wrong with your devcie as my Gallery opens fast either from the Gallery app or Multimedia menu. In fact i just tried to time it and from the Images and Video's menu it is so fast i didn't even manage to start the stopwatch and all the thumbnails are showing as well in a split second no delay at all.

@all

I have only completed the update a short while ago as had to sleep and then re load everything as i like to start a fresh from an firmware update, but so far i can confirm YouTube works perfectly from the Web Browser and file transfer to the Mass Memory is much faster also. I wouldn't of thought it possible but the whole device is much faster as well even menu's and folders open quicker as well. Once i have checked everything out i will update it in the N95 8GB review part 2 thread. The only other thing was as i use Life Blog i was able to transfer all my pictures and my Fring and Seven all ways on e-mail configuration sms back to my devcie which made re installing Fring and Seven nice and easy. I have this devcie less than 2 months and two updates already Nokia really are doing a great job with this devcie.

@Sorry Ericsson Indonesia - Hey bud, judging by your nickname I assumed you were a SE fan. Nice to see you support Nokia. Welcome to the s60 OS. N95 must be damn popular if even SE die hard fans buy it

@Marc Can you confirm - The pictures open up quicker in preview mode/galery? And how about the time to 'first pic shoot'. IMHO a point and shoot camera should not take more then a sec.

ultra speedy. The thumbnails all load simultaneously now in the gallery.

I'm loving it so far.

Side note, you don't need to backup 'memory card' (which is mass storage). The update doesn't touch it.

@Mario

I have to agree with amnesia the Gallery app really is super fast and all the thumbnails now refresh really fast as well,, haven't used the camera as yet so really can't comment on that. But this latest update has really improved the speed of many things including the search app from the Home screen.

@amnesia

I know it doesn't touch the Mass memory but i always like to treat my devcie as new after an update and whilst it may take a little longer just prefer to start a fresh. On a side not the transfer times to the Mass memory is now much faster than before 2-3 times faster in my estimation.

Marc
