01 Aug 08 Samsung Instinct Firmware Update
The Instinct was a big Sprint hit before the iPhone hit the market. The Instinct came in with a nice price tag and lots of features. Almost ready to beat the 3G iPhone. But things weren’t going so smooth as multiple Sprint customers are reporting problems when it comes to Sprint data availability. Maybe that’s why it was decided for the Instinct to receive a firmware update. Or maybe not, since Samsung is going to release a more significant update later this year.
Upcoming changes include increased audio volume when using Bluetooth headsets or car kits, and improved signal stability as well as better battery indicator. Applications will also be affected by the upgrade but most importantly, the web browser is going to be improved.
Go to your Instinct menu and get it upgraded. Tell us how it works now!

[...] did tell you about the Instinct in the past and no matter how many firmware upgrades Sprint rolled out, it never completely solved all [...]
When I opened my phone today on two different occasions, I got a update message. Afterwards my phone did not respond at all until I removed the battery and re-installed, and pushed End to re-boot. Just checking to make sure I wasn’t hacked. You might want to put that in the message.
