Samsung has finally released the long awaited firmware update (JB1) for the i8910 HD phone. The update brings kinetic scrolling to most parts of the interface, and a faster web experience. The update is available via Samsung’s PC Studio 7. As with all Samsung updates, you have to make a full backup before continuing, since there is no user data protection, and the firmware will wipe clean all data on the phone. After the update you will be able to restore your files from the backup, but all applications will be lost.
Quite a good update, but there is one stupid thing. After the firmware, you only have 16.9MB free space on C:. This is nearly half of the amount that was before the update, and WILL cause users problems. Symbian will start to nag you when there is under 10MB free.
