ya, i'm currently on hx2.03 speed

there are a few things that don't work right on the speed fw (ie, ovi maps has weird names on certain fields, others display fine)...but almost all functionality is there...all the bloatware removed which is a definite bonus for me (some would want the 3dtaskman, photo contacts running, 3d navigation, etc)

works great, hyperx, sev7en, symbix, andersson, and others have contributed alot to the i8910 community in general.

hopefully samsung can get this KS firmware finalized and into the hands of the cookers..

94.5 degrees Fahrenheit, which equals 34.7 degrees Celsius. Sorry, I should have been more clear about that. After completing one of my tests I noticed the phone was getting pretty warm. I decided to let it maintain a maximum load for about twenty minutes before I grabbed the infrared thermometer, which may I say is a great toy to have around the office :) I decided to measure the temperature battery because is it has a large surface area in contact with the board, and it would be a good indicator of both how well the board was dissipating heat, and how much power was being drawn. This was by no means a scientific test, I just though it was interesting.

“Actually, what it shows is that Nokia/Symbian should fire their development staff and put the RAM cookers and phone hackers in charge.”

That's not really true – yes this firmware can run 50 processes, but this was only achieved by cutting out 'uneccesary' background processes. Has this firmware then been run through all the different test scenarios to see how it functions?

Also, leave Symbian out of it – apart from the fact that name now refers to the Symbian Foundation which doesn't do phone firmware, even in the old days they would have had little involvement in determining the final contents of the ROM. And why did you not mention Samsung? They created the device.

“This just goes to show how well our modern Symbian EKA2 Kernel handles the resources you provide it with. “

Actually, what it shows is that Nokia/Symbian should fire their development staff and put the RAM cookers and phone hackers in charge.

94 degrees? Celsius?
