Added on February 25, 2012, 7:04 amHi all, those who still on 1.2 and updated through the kies then do me a favor, please. Type *#1234# to check your firmware then tell me so i can have a search exactly of the firmware. Million thanks.

Some nice free stuff.. but requires bada 2.0, which is not officially here yet. darn.

OTherwise give us Tizen fast fast and melt those 'ice creams'

hope heard some good news on Bada or Tizen in MWC 2012

Yea, Thanks for liking my Pictures . Was late to work standing there trying out various angles with the phone.

In the camera settings ( gear icon, lower left) scroll down to ISO and pick 50. This will help your pictures look less grainy. A quirky thing is that if you turn on Anti-Shake, you can't set the exposure value which is weird to me.

Bored with Orangy sunsets.


This time didn't use the 'Sunset' mode and went for the more bluer look.

ya..lower iso can get sharper picture but need more lighting suitable for outdoor only and need very rock stable hand also

nice pics

Tizen reach Beta stage already....

Will this flash will erase all my previous save calendar, S8500XXKL6?

sure coz S8500XXKL6 is full firmware....it will format whole phone using Multiloader
after that update to XXLA1 no need to format the phone

Overall performance is stunning and doesnt seen any lag on the phone.

sorry im new to bada, just upgrade my firmware to the 1.2 bada os. was expecting the 2.0 os. is 2.0 still not available for the s8500 officially?

for malaysia....not yet, Europe some countries already have their official update.
Samsung Malaysia very slow in develop their firmware...some time quite buggy...

so is the fw in http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3417 a custom rom or 2.0?

worth trying.. btw, my internet connection sucks here, keep failing =(

tis is custom rom, bcoz they try to put asian language support to the official 2.0 europe firmware (normal europe firmware dun have asian language support)

oic! so what do i need beside the FW?

Multiloader V 5.67 (download at the firmware section)
and before flashing, please make sure no kies software is running (background running also)
then let ur phone enter download mode by pressing Vol Down + Lock Screen Button + End Call Button (around 10 sec)
then run multiloader v5.67, click port search... after found ur phone just follow the instruction then done
