The MENA region got the update yesterday and i updated my phone. Thanks to all in this topic, i have a near perfect phone. I did back up my data to the memory card first, did the update, restarted the phone, inserted the memory card. I had the vivaz hack done b4 the update. its was good, but after the update, its perfect! the flow theme is silky smooth! before, the bubbles wallpaper of the previous homescreen used to show everytime you press the the exit button on the menu screen. Now, there is no such issues! Thanks to Raafat!
My videos has a few milliseconds lag in the first 2 second of the recorded videos.
The conversation menu is good, but i prefer the isms.
The Facebook web albums are a big deal for me. i have uploaded a lot of albums in fb, but the updating is a slow process.
Hey raafat, i have a question for you.
before the update, my pictures in the media menu and the homescreen albums used to load much much faster than when i have the vivaz homescreen. Have u experienced that? Is there any solution for this?
Ohh yea, am missing the Kinetic scrolling too!

As my C Drive was actually f**cked up, I needed both, to hardreset and keep the phone hacked, so I had to hardreset before updating, install HelloOX2, and then go on with the updating..
Everything's working fine, phoned hacked and RomPatcher+ working, but one thing is that almost all the applications installed on the SD Card weren't recognized by the phone.
Should I reinstall them, or is there a way around?
And could anyone please state how to set the E drive as the standard installation destination? I simply can't find it!
As to the update itself, without a question it's a big dissapointment!
Two unimportant new features were added while some basic ones, the most important being Kinetic Scrolling, were again ignored!
I can't be sure as of now but as I noticed no performance improvements! So what tweaks were really made?!
And the major thing of course: Bugs still there!
I think that's the most we could take from the Satio.. No more improvements whatsoever!
That's what SE for some reason decided. What could we say!
Had the Symbian OS not been set for fully open source releases as of the coming Symbian^3, I'd never own an SE handset again! Good for them, an open source OS would make up for those SE failures at debugging their softwares and keeping in touch with custormers by offering a decent support and keeping their products up to date!
Still though, after owning SE handsets for my whole life till now, I'll still think 100 times before getting a new SE device!

I got my update last night. I ran the full reset and update, rather than just the update. It acually feels pretty snappy now, especially in the Media part.
Although I don't think much of the camera now, it just doesn't seem to be focusing like it did before. |

I have a small question on technicality. My HelloOx2 is installed on my C: drive (by default). So when I follow the same steps, i.e take out the memory card, etc. I am assuming that its ok to have HelloOx2 installed on C drive or should it be installed on the memory card? Thanks
I have HelloOX on C: drive and did update. No problemo, mate. |

I did not see much improvements, at times the menu loading seem slower. The upgrade of video taking to wvga only meant they can DO 720 as the smaller Vivaz. Bad move, i am sure owners like us will demand for more....
this release is SE's first effort to improve the phone, we still don't know whether they will continue to support the phone and not did what they have done before:throwing a K810 after the successful K800.
The Satio has all the technical protential to upgrade to ^3 OS but, if they stick to the product cycle thing, by the time the OS is out, it would be some 9 months after Satio initial release, as they want people to buy a new phone instead of getting an upgrade...
IF that is to be the case, we will have half a smartphone that worth very little on our hands... If they do that, most Satios would be thrown away for anything SE's rivals throw out with a similar spec....
I hope SE is smart to fulfill their support base with new (optional) ^3 OS uopgrade or continue to leave it as it is for Satio owners.
At this moment we are not happy with what we got, so when we show off our phone, and asked if it is recommended, we will tell them, buy something else, it is not worth the trouble....
This firmware seem more like a release prepared last year waited on the pipeline to be release than something they have worked on along with development of Vivaz.
Wish us luck gets us more improvements for our Satio. |

WIth out it hacked, Satio is a smartphone in name only.
User will not be able to use simply apps like Live messenger where Nokia users took for granted.
We be stuck with SE's sub standard facebook app, there wont' be chances to use Nokia maps, so on and so forth.
with symbian source code open sourced, hacking should now be much easier and developments contributed by these so called phone hackers should help SE's own engineers work on improvements (not restrictions)
according to the symbian's own press, they are moving to a open source model, where a common app store will be put online, they are trying to use the iphone / android business model. If that happens, Satio and its cousins should be able to use Nokia / Samsung apps on their phone, which is the exact purpose of the hack. |

I dont think that Satio will get the Symbian OS upgrade as Symbian never get an OS upgrade just firmware release. I myself hoping for that too haha that would be nice to have it upgrade to 3rd version |
