Sprint released an initial update to the Instinct today. This
update will not change the behaviours of many of the
applications. What it does is update the Samsung ROM - the base
code that the applications run on - to prepare the device for
application updates starting early in August. Some of the issues fixed
include:

• Elimination of issues by where data services are disabled without user preference


• Elimination of NAI corruption upon provisioning if new NAI is shorter than the previous


• Reflect reoccurring calendar appointments


• Improved volume – Bluetooth headsets


• Utilize saved pictures as background image


• Reduce fluctuation in signal bar and other functions related to RF/Network quality


• Eliminate “echo” on conference bridge

The
application updates coming in August will make changes to Picture Mail,
the web browser, Sprint TV, Sprint Navigation, Sprint Email, Sprint
Music Store, Visual Voicemail, Mobile Sync and more. Today's
update prepares the device for these updates.
