The HX Team proudly presents:
in cooperation with PNHT and especially Szakalit, HX-patcher by Panagiotis, MAIN-Firmware by hyperX
HX-V8-Rainbow-flame
Everytime i present you a new release, i write about, “This is my best release ever” but this time, no other version has taken so much time….. that this time i can say, it was the hardest release ever.
More tweaks/features = more work to do, ..... it´s a full-time job, but i´m proud of it that the name HX has become so famous.
And because of that, i will not dissapoint you.
Most of the old tweaks are still there, so if you want to have a look what´s still in this firmware: Download old changelog: DOWNLOAD

NO QT integrated due to compatibility for the apps that needs different QT versions ! It´s recommended to install the modded n2o3 QT package ! (not the firmware )

( goes to andrecavallari) All shortcuts can be customized on e:\BlueSpectrum_home open shortcuts.xml and edit it´s UID to the one you like !

what´s new in HX-patcher?
“System” Change BrowserID on the fly, if you want to use TrackID you need the SE-Vivaz ID ! If you want to download e.g. orange maps, you need to go back to the original Samsungi8910 ID. As for the OVI-store sometimes you need N97 and sometimes X6 is better.
“Camcorder” it was requested by many users, so now you can change on the fly the jpeg codec you prefer from i8910, i8510,Vivaz, and new, the motorolla milestone (prefer this codec) codec will be changed, but the last setting won´t be saved, for this bug, it´s minor but will be fixed next time.
changing apps from “3d-navigation” should now work on the fly, but i would recommend to REBOOT after you change an app !
“Orientation-mode” force the application to use portrait/landscape or HW specified setting ! Now you can listen to music without the anoying album rotate and so on…..
“Backup” not yet implemented…... coming soon.
Thanks goes to Steve Litchfield from allaboutsymbian.com for beta-testing !
UPDATE 2.9.2010:
E.g. German Keyboard (also available with english letters)
English mini-qwerty (e.g.)
white square is fixed (on no E and 3G connection)
memorycard icon is removed again, both bugs were related to hxpatcher
jpeg-codec-not saved by hx-patcher – fixed
Samsung Homescreen and livewallpaper on e:\ FIXED …... if you want the “cube” SamsungHS then download and replace e:\gadget.swf with this one: DOWNLOAD
How to re-enable Live-wallpaper (only for experience users):
Download and install This package and delete e:\resource\apps\samsungtoolbar.mif to have fullscreen HS, now you can copy your custom HS to e:\ (replace gadget.swf) (don´t forget to reboot after doing that)
If you want to re-enable the old homescreen-modes such as Finger-use or Tsunami HS uninstall the old package and install This package ........ note that if you do something wrong you can mess-up your homescreen. Only do this if you know what you are doing
4-row keyboard for EN-DE (fullscreen and mini qwerty)

Lockscreen-removed will be back until Timo can fix all bugs
Folder delay fix – no delay when entering big folders ! (only working in portrait-mode, in landscape it must reload)

added: Camcorder requires support from the Asynchronous File Save Queue. (can produce smoother videos in 720p)

How To Flash
The only way you can flash is through Windows XP
Tutorial
1. Install Microsoft’s MS XML
2. Then install the i8910 HD Flashing drivers. At this point it might pay to reset your machine to insure the drivers install correctly.
Firstly a warning, before we flash the phone. Make sure its full charged. Please note that flashing your phone will void your warranty. Also do not disconnect your phone or power off your computer when flashing! Otherwise you will have yourself a nice shiny black brick.
3. Start the downloaded HyperX firmware. (the .exe file, on your computer.) You can see the program, but can’t click the start button.
4. Shutdown your I8910 and start it with volume button up + lock key pressed. (if its done correctly, you will see the bootloader, a blue screen)
5. Connect the phone with usb, and you will see that you can press the start button in the program to flash the firmware!
6.Don´t format e:\ after flashing !
