hmmm, any interface changes in v31?

[k4ce]

^ no interface changes in v31.0.100 .. just the usual rant ... faster and better battery life ...

[Kaushik]

People, kinetic scrolling is coming on V40. The contacts bar is gonna stay though

[sujoyp]

whats bad abt contact bar...u can replace it by shortcut bar or u can remove it alltogather...

Kinetic scrolling and new home screen is what we need

[ico]

Waiting for v40. I'll upgrade straightaway to it.

[Kaushik]

@ico
Don't update straight away.
Wait for HelloOX to catch up.

[k4ce]

^ have been waiting and waitin for kinetic scrolling ... my HTC Hero is coming by december end ... hope nokia deliver the firmware before tat so i use kinetic scroolling fr atleast a lilwhile

[desiibond]

more than kinetic scrolling, i need a fully customizable widget based home screen

[k4ce]

^ u are askin for too much ... widgets are n97 n mini property only ... no chance on seein em 5800 ...

[desiibond]

^^atleast a better home screen. right now, it's underutilized.

[sujoyp]

yup leave widgets...at least they can provide a new homescreen with more shortcuts..

[k4ce]

^ thats true .... 3.2' of screen real estate wasted with 4 icons ... a scrolling contact bar and atleast 5 shortcuts ... but are we asking for too much ... lets see ... we'll soon find out ....

one theory i read at a blog was that this is to diff between 5530 and 5800 ... 5800 wid better hardware while the 5530 with kinetic scrolling and a practical UI ....

[sujoyp]

S40 have a shortcut button...SE mobiles have a shortcut dedicated button...samsung have side scrolling shortcut bar...comon nokia do something

did someone found out any confirmation abt v40???

[Kaushik]

People use SmartSettings before better homescreen comes around

[k4ce]

^ nobody's got a confirmation ... 5800 users in hope are looking everywhere .... a single blog about firmware upgrade spreads like wildfire ...

Someone plzz tell me how to check the processor speed on 5800...it shows 192mhz everywhere

[desiibond]

afaik, it's 430Mhz

[REY619]

Guys why not mod the homescreen yourself..? Its better than using crap third party apps..
Modders have succeeded to port 5530, Samsumg Omnia I8910HD and SE Satio homescreens to our 5800.

Yes. That's a bug in apps such as X-Plore.

[sujoyp]

i checked using
1.jbtaskman
2.FExplorer Pro

both show 192MHZ

[MasterMinds]

They are not telling true speed.....! I used to check the clock of 5320 with xplore and it also showed the same....but i know its 369mhz....and now latest xplore shows correct values....so try xplore...!

ok thanks

[k4ce]

^ the speed is 369mhz ... firmware upgrade to v31 and above will bump up the proc speed to 434mhz ... dont worry wat the apps say .... s60v5 at 192mhz would be a total crawl
