[A1k] firmware...

[dannyngweekiat_85]

i have been using e680... just change to a1000, is it a way to change the firmware to linux version? Not very used to symbian....

[iQEM]

i guess you can't do that...operating system ussually related to hardware too...A1000 was designed by Motorola using Symbian UIQ, not linux...maybe to change that you must ask with Motorola Developer...

[dannyngweekiat_85]

icic.... anyway are there any linux 3g phone out there?... looking for some. Hope to find 1 to replace this.

[iQEM]

advantages:
- De-brands the phone and gets rid of all the '3' nonsense (mms, sms settings etc can of course be re-entered post-flash)

- Makes the phone run MUCH faster - starts up quicker (even if you choose not to disable the startup vids), loads programs quicker, less slowdown when multitasking etc

- Improves program compatability. Many programs that wouldn't work before (like AvantGo) now work flawlessly. Less buggy, fewer errors and crashes in the programs that did work before

- No need to set phone to 1900Mhz/Aeroplane mode to connect to the 'real' internet via bluetooth/desktop cradle. Can now simply 'disconnect' from within the browser and surf away. Ditto for IM, updating internet weather/news in AvantGo, WorldMate, etc. If it can't get it via the network, it'll give up and try bluetooth instead

- Bluetooth communication in general seems quicker and more stable

- Nicer icons and background at top of screen

- Ability to change bottom icons, also various other bits 'n' bobs - sounds, videos, graphics etc - to truly customise the phone

- Typing on the keyboard and handwriting recognition are notably speedier. There is no delay between button presses/screen taps in general, i.e. no more waiting for the phone to 'catch up'
