To All the i8910 gurus,

I'm confused whether to get an i8910 or not. I was wondering whether the camera of the phone is at par with the N86 or better?

Is true that it has bugs? Could the hidden menu fix this?

Is video recording improved now? How about the video recording sound? Is it still AMR or something better comparable to what most Nokia N-series phones have?

How about the audio recording? Is it good?

Hope someone could help me. I'm really a fan of you chums. Thank you so much.

                        Hacking totally safe and doesnt void warranty!

                        All it does is give user access to various folders that wouldnr have been available before the hack...altering or editing particular files in those hidden folders....the user is now able to customise certain aspects of his handset....such as the startup/shutdown sound files and the gif images at start screen....user can also edit the useragent of the web browser allowing the browser to mimick and iphone browser/Internet Explorer/Mozilla/Opera or Nokia Nseries....by doing so user would be able to gain all the perks that the other browsers have on certain webpages....gaming interface can be altered to allow ngage games and most other nokia games to run on i8910 HD....with hacking the UI can be tweak with a few new effects whilst navigating through the menu....this can be done using the kastor UI patch and c2z patch....with a hacked phone it is a must that the user have a good file browser...such as FExplorer, Y-Browser, X-Plore or Active File...these allow u to copy/paste/edit files to create the necessary changes....hacking will atleast give users more freedom....

                        Good HACKING!!

                                    Juz got the gold edition. Simply outstanding. its a very lasting design and one of the best phones for 2009. But again, its not a phone for the person on the street ... one needs to understand its capabilities before appreciating it. The video HD recording, sound output and camera are simply outstanding. the symbian os works very well with the capacitive screen too.
