No need to keep that old Wave phone...I just sold it and got a GS2. Big screen, fantastic camera and tons of super games...Forget Wave and Bada, that was good 2 years ago

            Hi friends , i want an urgent help , am using this phone for than an year now . and am still on Bada 1.0 am unable to upgrade its OS even after an year as the Kies Soft always says current and latest version as same and hence does nt allow to upgrade . The phone is Australian Vodafone Co-branded and am using it in India , i asked the call centre guys and samsung service care for the same , They said the phone now can be upgraded only from Australia , i have no source to send the phone back to australia and update it , after trying for so much time and waiting for a solution . am so much fed up that , i hate Bada OS now ..

            Now My question is that i want to flash this phone to make it an Android one , I request to those who knows the exact procedure to convert it into android . I really apreciate the person's help , my id is simar2025@yahoo.com and i am ready to pay for that as well. So Help wd be severely appreciated .
            Thanks a lot

              Using it for more than two years, still love it very much.. Smooth user experience, periodic reminder for unread message, smooth and clear touch screen and vibrant color. Highly customiseable setting and user interface. Overall very good phone.

                    Great phone. Great screen. Too bad it stopped working after less than one year of use... Most certainly the last Samsung I'll ever buy!

                                2,5 years later, this is still a top phone. Superb design, autonomy, sound, screen and multimedia features.
                                Just stick with bada 1.2 if you got all the apps you need.

But be prepared that the only thing you will be happy with on bada 2.0 is that you can download bada 2.0 apps. Some minor improvements are there too.
