Unofficial upgrade of the Samsung i8910 HD smart phone model

July 30th, 2010

Samsung has always been reluctant to add ‘add-ons’ to their products. They don’t seem too willing to add an upgrade to their models. If it’s required, Samsung brings out a new line of models which would have the upgrade. But the hacking community doesn’t like such Samsung policies and are keen to fiddle with the inner workings of the unlocked mobile phones.

This is the same scenario with the Samsung’s latest brain child: the Samsung i8910 HD smartphone. To the hacking community, this Symbian powered model did seem not ‘up to date’ or so as to say ‘upgraded’. They had their powerful multimedia device to improvise on any and all models they got interested in. The latest Unlocked Samsung Mobile Phone has to bear the brunt of being stripped and tinkered with. This improvement hasn’t been part of Samsungs idea but unwittingly they find the upgraded version available for whoever wants it. It’s being called as the HX7 aka ‘Black Pearl’. The improvements include enhanced interface settings with kinetic scrolling. There is also a camera which saves the images and videos in the format “yyyy.mm.dd”. There has also been a minor change in the Wlan power which is brought back to the normal style. So also with the threaded SMS and pocket data. Along with this there is the inclusion of the ‘Wow’ effect to that of the 3D taskmaster. The music player is made a bit smarter and reliable. It now searches through only the e:\music and f:\music drives instead of going through every folder nonsensically. Along with these improvements there is also the added benefit of the battery life extended. With the new firm ware it seems that longitivity of the battery is extended to about 20 percent. But these benefits come at a stiff price. The warranty fails to exist as soon as the new firmware is added.
