                hi wavers,i have ben using wave 8500 for 2 months now,its undoubtedly d best phone n now wid new apps it just has bcum more awsum.

                i need a lil assistance from users who hv deep knowlrdge bout the phone on some issues:-

                1.battery-my battery never worked for more dan 17 hrs dat includes 4 hrs of heavy usage lyk internet usage,calls etc.i hv sync activated for some apps n i hv software version djf2_kor bada1.0,
                is dat normal?nd wat is battery conditioning?will dat help?i fully charge n discharge my cell...

                2.multitasking-with almost nothing installed to phone default memory except default apps n around 500 mb of available space it sometimes wid even 2 apps open shows not enough memory. i hv an external memory card of 8gb n dat 2 hving 4 gb empty space.

                hw can dis issue b solved?

                3.in rare cases it automatically restarts n lags as well,i hv around 4 screens filled apps.is dat normal?

                4.i installed nimbuzz,its 2 laggy n disconnects even when i try to switch to task manager ,dat means no other app can b used along.similarly when samsung apps n fb client used together if switched from one to another n wen back to 1st the app reboots dat to means we cant use the 2 apps together...


                i love my gadget but am very concerned due to these prlblems,kindly help wavers .thnx in advance,god bless us all

                            but I got a feeling this is ONLY possible with GMAIL,
                            I couldn't find a domaine for hotmail and yahoo for bada!!

                            do you actually use you hotmail account TO PUSH through mail to your WAVE?

                            anyone has done this with yahoo or hotmail account?

                            please comment

                                the message storage is getting full at 887 instead of 1300 coz some of the messages in storage must be really large taking the space of 2-3 messages thats y the error..

                                  After updating my phone firmware to 1.0.2, i am having a few problems. Plz confirm, if someone else also having the same problems. When playing the music in the ear phone and woofer mode and i try to use the 5.1 channel output feature, it says "FOR USING THE 5.1 CHANNEL OUTPUT, YOU NEED TO SWITCH OFF YOUR SOUND EFFECTS". Earlier i didn't have this problem and the 5.1 channel output mode was working just perfect in both modes.
                                  One more problem after updating is the faster drainage of BATTERY. Earlier twhen no application was running, the CPU usage remained 1-2% while it is 1-10% now without any application running in the background. I think it is due to this high memory usage that the battery is draining faster.
                                  Also plz confirm how much is the message memory of WAVE as it is showing message memory full when i have just 887 messages in my inbox while it shows that the maximum messages that you can store is 1300.
