Problem: All of sudden, Firefox would completely freeze on me, if I tried to either download or upload a file. I had to kill it using the Windows task manager.
Searching for a way to fix this problem, I noted how there seems to be many different ways to make Firefox freeze, but I did manage to find help fixing the problem.

I should be doing cool stuff with my new Samsung i8510 INNOV8 phone (and other phones) – subsequently writing on this blog about the cool stuff I do.
But I get to do neither of those – instead I get to work like there is no tomorrow. For the past few months we have been extremely busy at work, which is both a good and a bad thing. It is mostly good because most activities are related to mobile. It is bad because it leaves me with little time to geek out with phones.

Just a short news flash really…
Even though the Samsung INNOV8 is not officially supported, the Kaywa Reader never the less both installs and works just fine – you just need to download the reader for another phone make and model.

Even though the Samsung INNOV8 comes equipped with a lush 1200 mAh Li-Ion battery, you may still want to tweak it to minimize power consumption.
With its many advanced features and multimodal connectivity, the INNOV8 also makes for a power hungry handset.
In a spirit of brotherly love and humanistic altruism, I have therefore taken it upon myself to compile a list of the most awesome, battery saving power tweaks, you are likely to ever come across.
I have divided the list of battery tips into two categories: a) Settings that affect the power consumption, and b) user (your!) behavior that minimizes power consumption.

Here is a bunch of images, all recorded using the Samsung i8510 INNOV8. I post them to as samples of the sort of images you get out the INNOV8.
I have not included samples of every one of the INNOV8’s 13(!) scene modes, just the ones I use the most. I have included both images that turned out good, and some that turned out not so good – to give you some idea of what sort of point ‘n’ click images you can expect from the INNOV8.

I have spent some time last weekend, and during the week, getting to know the Samsung i8510 INNOV8 I received last Friday. I have been pretty busy at work and have not had time to get this out as quickly as I would have liked, but here it is…some initial thoughts and impressions on the INNOV8.
Overall, the impression I got when unboxing the INNOV8 has only been confirmed by the additional time, I have spent using it: The INNOV8 is an outstanding piece of hardware with great build quality and several interesting features.
Software-wise Samsung seems to have generally nailed S60 with the INNOV8. There are a few glitches, however, reflecting how Samsung’s offering is not as polished, as I somehow thought it would be.
Please note this is not a full review – it is merely some observations based on about a week’s usage of the INNOV8. If you have some feature or function you would like me to investigate further, please let me know by commenting – I am more than happy to check something out and provide image or video documentation.

The Samsung Innov8 does not come with a TV out cable included – a fact which worried me a bit when I ordered the handset. Especially since none of the Innov8 user manuals or guides currently available mention the TV out function.
You never know with these things – maybe you need some special cable that is both expensive and hard to get. That was the case with the Samsung SGH-x820. The x820 is capable of both TV out and USB storage, but did not come with cables for neither. These have to be bought separately and are relatively expensive.
