old news...i already use it since 3rd of sept (russian ver)
haha

is it allowed to talk about it here ?

err...
its more like :
main version : XEII1 (released on 1st week ?)
custom version : SERII2 (Russian)

Thanks

If use official way, just use samsung software lo...
un-official way, u must use another country firmware ( HK / RUS / IT ) and flash to ur phone

i8910xxii1 ITALIAN version is out !!!

basically same like russian, i think i will stick with russian modified 1...

haha...i dunnoe le...
have u update ur firmware ?
confuse between I2 Rus / I1 ITA

dun have TV, so i cant test it.... haha...
i tried the contacts under XP mode Win7 works perfect.... ver 7.2.24.9

oh..ure trying to update the firmware ?
i tot ure trying to open the contacts

im not using software updater, it always give me problem !!

the contact works for me

yes,,, its posible...got review use sandisk 16 gb class 4

a bit review :

Pros :
1. this phone suitable for geeks, as you can custom the firmware
2. so many hidden settings ( boost up volume, listen radio without earphone, etc) I LOVE IT
3. Camera clearer compared to N97 and N95 & HD recording + can modify the compresion setting ( i think all symbian also can)
4. good video player from Archsoft
5. Superb Screen ! watch converted HD movie so clear
6. 3D Task manager, slower than old task manager but fancy
7. Never hang until now
8. after use I2 firmware, better compability to S60v5 software ( read : can install 5800 and N97 software) + heloox202
9. music player got better look than n97,5800 and if use earphone got 5.1 effect

Cons :
1. record HD video less than 24fps ( around 20-22 fps)
2. Audio recording got hissing sound ( can adjust via hidden settings)
3. WiFi sometimes disconnected without reason
4. after use I2 firmware, the battery drain quickly (still love IG2 for that)
5. Video Recording no Pre-focus
6. Static equalizer for music player


Note :
1. Havent try GPS function as no time
2. Got hidden software for Transmit FM radio (like N97) but currently known as not working

later i will add more haha

actually its a bit complicated, because u need to find one file inside the phone ( need to hack it ), and the signal reception wont as good as with antenna ( earphone)

what new update ?

i think Malaysia stop at IG2 only...sorry...

just use "unusual" way to update la... mine I2

@Leo the Lion
maybe bro spaceman interested ?

are you sure want to update to HK firmware (IH firmware ?)
except you need chinese UI, better you flash to I2 Italian ( English UI)

yes, the latest firmware is Italian / Russian I2
Hong Kong 1 is H1

the firmware number is in alphabetical order ( I is newer than H ).

if u want to jump from Malaysia to HK firmware, make sure you have Windows XP installed / flash in windows XP

HK firmware : Language set 16 - Hong Kong - English, Chinese(Mandarin) and simplified

as far as i know, only I build has the 3D task manager

china H1 got 3D task manager...but no WiFi
