Samsung i8910 HD 3D TaskSwitcherA new Samsung i8910 HD firmware update is now out for Hong Kong & Russian models. The XEII1 has some quite interesting additions including a new 3D TaskSwitcher. We’ve attached a video of this in action after the break and appears to work very smoothly.

Other additions include an improved keyboard with increased spacing between keys. The browser stop bug has also been fixed. We have attached a changelog after the break that includes a number of other changes. Sounds like some worthwhile additions and we look forward to this being rolled in other regions soon.

    Now all we need is kinetic scrolling and this phone is perfect!!

  9. NeidRider says:

    Just flashed it over IG2, did a restore from the backed-up settings. Everything fine except missing messages / mail account.
    Feels faster, 3D taskswitcher is fun, but not really an improvement over taskman or anything similar.

  10. NeidRider says:

    addition: the “don’t-charge-while-connected-via-usb”-option is unfortunately still missing (unless somebody can tell me, where it’s hidden…).

    i wish kinetic scrolling will be added by samsung.nokia is going to roll out a new firmware for the n97 featuring kinetic scrolling everywhere.this means that it can indeed be done.i hope samsung can do it as well.

  12. Dan says:

    WHY IS IT BROWN!!! anything but BROWN !!
