The Samsung Galaxy Spica i.e. I5700 thread
- Thread starter Wraith
- Start date
Folks wait for some time the official update for Indian phones will be out.I got a call from higher authority of Samsung .I had a talk with him for about 30 minutes regarding the hands free issue .I spoke to him even about the 2.1 update,he told me that it will be out next month as they are testing the update.
He told that initially it will be out at samsung centers wherein we have to go and surrender our handset for less than a day at a later stage ( may be after 2 months) .The software will be available for download through samsung software
Edit:My phone is getting damn heated up while charging.I have kept it on my bed .Any one else facing this issue??

I wanted to find out if i can directly upgrade from 1.5 cup cake stock firmware to this one? ANy specific upgrade path to be followed?
Any specific instruction to watch out for expect for new .ops file to be used?? Can you pls advice on the instruction that you followed to flash it?
Running JD4 for couple of days. Its good, but I didnt feel any difference from JD1.
If you are already on JD1 and not facing any problems, I dont see any need to upgrade to JD4.
It does not, and it probably never will on Spica with limited RAM and weak processor. It might be 800Mhz chip, but its old A11. Dont expect miracles from it.

According to Samsung, the S3C6410 can churn out 4 million polygons/second and even the benchmarks @ GSMArena show that the processor can hold its own against the more expensive workhorses from HTC. Could it be poor OpenGL implementation that's holding back the Spica?
The same benches also revealed that the Spica underperformed in the memory tests. Castrated memory(SDRAM instead of DDR perhaps)?
:huh:
^^ there is also problem with the drivers.
that bug where cars wont be rendered in RT2 is there with JD4 as well.
