  • Poll: Would you like bada on the i8910?

    Posted on February 13th, 2010 anphase 8 comments

    The pur­pose of this poll is to find out if users of the i8910 are inter­ested in bada as posed in the pre­vi­ous post. This is not to say that it will actu­ally be imple­mented, but inter­est is the first step to anything. Feel free to share your thoughts on the mat­ter. Going for bada is a more focused and well versed approach for the i8910 and I believe we can make some seri­ous headway.

      I would really like it if this OS was ported onto the I8910HD.

      I believe that this would be our only chance of pro­long­ing the life of the hand­set. it would cost Sam­sung to much money to go and arrange for Android or Winmo to be added onto it, where as with Bada every­thing is INHOUSE, they already have the hard­ware, all they need to do is send it to the labs and do what they want with it, whats to say they’ve not used this hand­set already to run things while test­ing Bada inhouse.

      I have seen vids of other com­pa­nies using this hand­set to show­case their new soft­ware, which goes to show the regard that it is held within the indus­try, so why wouldn’t Sam­sung use it.

      I think this would be a great oppor­tu­nity for Sam­sung to get the Bada OS of to a flyer, onto a very well spec’d device from the off.

      its not going to hap­pen until sam­sung decides it to. to port the os we need to make dri­vers for our phones hard­ware. and some soft­ware changes like cam­era options?

      but you’ll never now until you try.….samsung HAS to sup­port this os since its their own cre­ation. If they cre­ate a bad name for bada:D no ones going to buy their smartphones

      I think you are being opti­mistic to think Sam­sung would prop­erly sup­port BADA. For one, all phones regard­less of OS lack sup­port from Sam­sung, that lack of sup­port affects their rep­u­ta­tion but they don’t care. Sec­ondly, they will do what they do at every MWC, cre­ate mas­sive hype which they fail to deliver on. Thirdly BADA is in its infancy, it will not have the level of 3rd party sup­port or com­plex­ity that Sym­bian has now and I imag­ine ever.
      Last point, last night I was brows­ing on the sam­sung inno­va­tor and they have not fol­lowed up any devel­oper pro­gram on any OS prop­erly and even fail to prop­erly sup­port the touch­wiz devel­op­ment. BADA will end up the same way I am sure.
      Come on Nokia, release a decent phone so I can come back!!

      id rather have symbian,which has 40% of the mar­ket share rather than a new OS with 0% devel­oper sup­port and mar­ket base.

      “Other” responses:

      1 No, there is no mul­ti­task­ing in Bada 1
      2 No way. Sam­sung will fail cus­tomers regard­less of OS. No 3rd party sup­port yet! 1
      3 Yes, but only if there will be an hebrew key­board 1
      4 I’d like to have dual boot, symbian/bada or (bet­ter) symbian/android 1
      5 Android ftw ;D 1
      6 android 1
      7 Symbian^3 1

      Every OS is cool as long as it not that dated pos that is Sym­bian. Sym­bian failed com­pletely in the touch depart­ment, and Sam­sung didn’t give a shit to make it any better.

      TouchJizz is the most hor­ri­ble thing I’ve ever seen on a mod­ern phone. There weren’t even short­cuts to apps with­out the users. Did they actu­ally try to use the phone before they sold it?

      Bada/Samsung’s sup­port sim­ply can’t be worse.

      I always hear peo­ple say that sup­port for the i8910 was very good, so many updates, sound codec, ks, etc…thing is, we only had updates because the phone’s soft­ware was crap from the begin­ning. The fact that it’s slightly less crappy now doesn’t make it any better.

      Sam­sung gave up on Sym­bian before the i8910 even hit the stores. They won’t get any more money from me, ever.

      I don’t think port­ing the OS would ever be pos­si­ble with­out hav­ing to re-do every thing.…

      One major point, I8910’s screen res­o­lu­tion 360 x 640 pixels

      It wouldn’t even run a suit­able ver­sion of any­thing with­out hav­ing to resize every aspect of the OS dis­play out­put i.e. icons, text font
      etc.

      I don’t even think that newer ver­sions of the symbian^x’s will con­tinue to run this res­o­lu­tion?? would it??

      I hope Sam­sung will code Bada OS for out Sam­sung I8910 HD mobiles.
      I also send an e-mail to Sam­sung.
      Do you, Anphase, already know some­thing more and what are you going to do with the votes?
      I appre­ci­ate your work! (srry for the bad English)
