    Friendship, 06 Jan 2011Whenever I refer to my Wave photo gallery I notice that it ... moreI belive the photo was stored in your memory card. and in photo gallery you selected the image and set as wallpaper. so the same image is copied to phone memory in order to set it as wallpaper. so you get two copies of same photo in gallery. just delete the one stored in memory card. if you delete the one stored in phone memory then your wallpaper setting will go back to its original wallpaper.

      Riya, 06 Jan 2011Can u guys pls help me out in chosing phone for internet us... moreGPRS and EDGE function in 2G network. samsung wave's network connectivity is not that great in 2g network. its browser is mostly optimised for 3g and wifi networks. even while using opera mini, its slow n cant load image heavy websites, coz the memory allocation in wave for java apps is less. so opera mini cant function properly. for example wen you open 2-3 taps in opera, most of the time the pages will be cleared to save memory. i have compared it with n86 running opera mini and the same web pages as in wave. i suggest you go for ANDROID

        Arjun, 06 Jan 2011I have a problem with my wave. I cant do tele conferencing ... moreif you are on a 2g network then wave has some connectivity issues. in 3g and wifi, i have not encounteted any problems. i experienced not enough memory issues only twice. my wave was running 6 homescreens with widgets and wen i played nfs shift then it showed not enough memory, close some applications/widgets. then it automatically closed some widgets and went on smoothly. now i use only 2 homescreens, one for htc time weather clock and the other for feeds and update. so far i have not encountered memory issues. if you have lots of widgets running then surely you will get memory issues. so use 2-3 widgets only for smooth operation. i am on bada 1.0

            The phone is great over all , excellent hardware but i guess its not fully utilized because some games still lags even if it has the most powerful GPU of all phones in 2010 along side Galaxy S , and my only complain with the phone is the battery, only last for 1 and a half day of normal use, i even set my screen brightness to 1, im not using 3G, and the sound is set to 1, i tried every trick i found on the net to make the battery last longer but still it doesnt seem to last that long, i did not try to use the code to make underclock the cpu because i dont want to !
