S8300DXID2 (Asian Year 2009 April v2 firmware) small notes

Benefit:
- Highly recommended if your phone still DXIC1 or older.
- Overall perform faster and smoother.
- Press and Hold to unlock ready work. Now you ready need to press and hold.
- A lot new widget added, example like youtube, facebook, myspace and etc.
- Touch responsive improving a lot, I never face anything that need me to press and press again because cannot select it.

What is missing:
- All effect is gone, no more 3D slide effect within menu, I believe this is the way it make everything smooth.

New firmware S8300XXID6:

http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=8d263be846de999a4012e8015643d9c83d57ae5f 3f51bc08

The File system is for Germany, so you'll find some German Widgets pre-loaded, other than that it's 100% Open Market.

Yes, Samsung removed the 3D effects due to some side effects, like overall slowliness..

I just installed S8300XXID6, works great - thanks. Is there any way to change the language of the browser though, because sites like facebook detect it as german and therefore all the text is localised.

Cheers,
Mark.

hey darkforest,

can you get the Chinese versions?? Chinese and English language would be nice.
I really want to see if the Chinese version supports korean fonts.
thanks

nope,. this is a feature i want . but Korean fonts are only available in the Korean versions of these phones, but the hardware is different, so its impossible to flash between them.

In answer to my own question - launching facebook, etc using the widgets sets the language of the website to german. This stays that way until you manually switch it back in the preferences of the site (i.e. facebook). I thought facebook was picking up the language from the browser preferences until i tried viewing it on my pc :)

Cheers,
Mark.

but some Samsung phones support Korean fonts. just reading not writing.
and most of those samsung phones are in Chinese firmware.

I just want to be able to read Korean fonts.

I just notice somethings ready cool about this "S8300DXID2" firmware.

I try yesterday and notice this firmware allow you to direct install java apps or games via phone. :yahoo: (No special code or whatever difficulties way needed)

What you need to do is copy both .jar and .jad to your phone and then you can simply launch and install directly from phone by clicking the .jar file. :yahoo:
