Hi,

Anyone has idea about the specs for this phone ?

Unofficial websites show 140mb internal memory. This should be too low for possible ICS upgrade, IMO. In that respect Karbonn A9 has better specs.

Also, with Spice annoucing the launch of MI-500 (ICS, 5" screen), there would be healthy competition in low end Android handsets in India.

Cheers.

nice thread . if i , by any chance , get the stock rom of the spice ics phone then i shall try and port the rom for you

note - i am not sure if it will work or not but i will try ........

if mi425's memory is 140mb, KA9 looks better!!!
I would love to see the mi425 ROM though. I like spice in terms of dual sm management.

I have provided links above which show the specs
140 MB is user available memory, its NOT for the OS.
The OS is installed in ROM, this ROM might be somewhere from 1 GB to 500 MB and it is a reserved space for OS, so dont worry about ICS, the handset has enough power to run it.

Would 140 MB User Available Memory be enough for apps. I understand that apps can be moved to SDC. However, some say that not all apps are movable e.g. G-Maps etc.

I am an Android newbie.
