Problem is without official release notes we get posts on this forum saying "woo new firmware, so far battery life appears better", within minutes GSMArena post to say new firmware, fixes battery. Then other android sites copy this news over the next few days. Finally someone in this forum posts a link to one of the blog posts saying it must be true. Yet in this time users have had real experience of any changes, which often aren't the same as the original poster.Has anyone noticed this from Device Magazine?
Again I am reading KE7 'supposedly' increases the battery performance.

No you root any time under current Firmware Gingerbread .
No features added just bug fixes .
jje
Oh so provided that we are still on gingerbread, we will still be able to root, since these samsung kies updates just include bug fixes?
How did you root your phone i just got mine yesterday and am desperate to root!!! I had a nexus one and then an Nexus S with CM7 on both so im no rookie!! So please send info on how to rootJust flashed KE7, rooted and reflashed KE7 kernel. All works fine.
However in KIES I get the following Software info for my phone now:
PDA:KE7 / PHONE:KE4 / CSC:KD1 (DBT)
and it says "This version of the device cannot be updated". No biggie as I may just have to flash back to the KE2 or just wait for the DBT update to hit I guess.
Can anybody point me to the rooting thread that contains KE7 stock kernel ? Thanks.
Ok I get it, give me a break, 1st android phone (and no I didn't use an iPhone before that)
Nothing wrong with the iPhone. If it weren't for Apple and the iPhone, none of us would be using this phone right now. People seem to get all anti-fanboy about Apple and forget about these little facts
