New Update

[nedqadams]

Can anyone who has the phone comment on what (if any) changes have come with the recent OTA update? Any chance the slight slow downs in the OS that have been reported were fixed?

If they indeed do have an OTA update already its good to see there on top of it before its even officially released

It's real, but I can't really see anything new. Probably just little fixes.

I am sure they are just tightening up little things...

Has anyone confirmed whether or not the Blockbuster App is working now?

I figure it is probably just little bugs with performance (kinda like the MotoDroid camera update)

I've heard rumors its related to the camera software

That would be nice...Although the camera is pretty good for a cell phone camera. I do alot of blogging so I am hoping I can replace my Cybershot with my Droid X for most photos I post.

well I have seen some of the pics is has taken and it doenst seem quite up to par with other phones with a 8mp camera. I hope they corrected the issue. That would be sweet....

It took me a LONG time to get used to taking pictures with my BB Storm...but once I understood how it works and how the button has 2 stages, I was taking much better pictures. I think the same is with the X....Just have to understand how the software and hardware interacts in order to get the best out of the functionality. That is not to say there are not software tweaks that can help this.

I used to have an old sony ericsson and it had the two stage button too. At the time it had a great camera 2mp, the only down fall was a little shake and it was blurry.
In most of the photos from the DX that i have seen they seem rather over exposed wich im sure could be taken care of with a update. I saw a comparison between the iPhone 4 and the DX and the iPhone 4's pircture did look much better, so we'll see I guess..

If it was camera maybe Phil could check it out? hehe

In any event at least they are fixing things before they launch (*cough* apple...)

And if it was the camera, it's too bad they didn't release the update about 2 weeks ago before all the reviews started coming out

No doubt! Maybe they used all the reviews to fix all the small complaints people were having with it lol

One could only hope this is true

AMEN.

I think both the iPhone 4 and Droid X cameras have their shortcomings. The DroidX has less detail, however the iPhone4's camera seems overexposed. Oftentimes the bright areas in iPhone photos are blown out and undefined.

I think both phone cameras work fine for the intended purposes, and the iPhone gives you marginally better photos. Neither are P&S equivalents but could be used as a replacement. There is a difference between "equal to/greater performance" and "good enough"

...Still no confirmation on whether or not the Blockbuster App is working after the update????

I would guess that it still would work, can't see there being an update to disable or take down an app, but you never know

As of the last postings concerning this app, it was not functional. Are you saying that is works now?

I couldn't say just throwing opinion out there, Don't have one to confirm or deny
