this phone is freaking monster in beautiful steel case.you should try music on some quality headphones and you will throw your i pod away.this phone eat all other phones alive.you must try this phone and see the power and the speed that is beyond your imagination

    The real price of this phone is in rang of samsung galaxy s, maybe even expensive,because wave is almost fuly made from steel and because of power led flash.The reason why this model is so cheap is because samsung want to promote a new operating system.I have used all operating system and i must say that bada is the fastest,the most stabile operating system ever made !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bada don't lag at all,bada don't have bugs,bada's speed is out of this world.Touch response of this phone is unreal.Remember that bada is several mounths old.I can only imagine how fast and stabile will be bada 2.0 or 3.0.

                            here is the process stated..


                            u have to rename and replace the bin,info and res folder files..say rf2010 instead of ardefender..

                            1st goto ardefender file in wave"s memory card while connected through "mass memory Mode" go to other-->@bada applications@>

                            then find the ardefender file.n go to bin folder

                            then copy the name "ardefender" in "bin"file n then go to the rf2010 file-->bin
                            in this folder there is a file (cud b named rf2010 etc) rename it by pasting the name "ardefender"...
                            then go to the crappy app(ardefender) in "@bada application@" delete all data files and copy paste the data f8iles of rf2010..then go to info folder in crappy app copy the name of the ".htb" file (it could b "ardefender.htb" and then go to rf2010 info folder..there will b a ."htb" file also..rename it by pasting the name that u hAve copied from the crappy app..now again delete all info files in crappy app and copy paste the files in the info folder of rf2010 here in the info folder of crappy app..now go to "RES"folder of the crappy app copy the name of the ".Png" file n same way rename the same file in rf2010 by pasting this name..do the same for "splash" file..and now replace all the files of res folder in crappy app by all the files in res folder of rf2010..

                            remember u have to rename the files in bin folder in rf2010 and ".htb" file in info folder and ".png" and .splash" files in the res folder of rf 2010 by the names of the same files in ardefender..

                                u use the copy paste method..u r good at replacing the internal files..n u know the whole procedure..u must also b knowing how to flash it incase something goes wrong..but we use the 3rd method n the easiest one to spoof...so, we cant actually try something new..n evn there were some posts bout bricking in that forum..so, its betr to b on the safer side..

                                  @ KRIS WAVE

                                  samsung hasnt let wave down...coz it still runs bada..n as far as bada is in their focus our wave is good..there r more bada phones to come out soon..
                                  N i think if wave is going down, then a crap like N8 shud also go down..so, at the time i vote full for wave, i make it a point to vote min for N8 n other nokia phns in top10..
                                  @ optional

                                  n bout the guys complaining bout hardware replacement issues..parts arent available for now..but they will b available soon..coz they didnt expect hardware issues for a well built phone..n they had very few cases related to hardware..so, they might not have thought it necessary to order those parts in bulk..since wave2 is out..n hardware is almost same..i feel u can get the parts at a later date..but for now..if they are returning u the full payment..pay extra n go for WAVE 2 coz everything is similar to wave n wave 2 has a better screen(super lcd is already tested n found to be betr than super amoled)..but if u feel that the price is too heavy for a phone like wave2..thn wait till NEXUS S or sony psp phone..

                                      @ someone who posted bout spoofing unedited games..
                                      it was the exact question i asked in that forum n u copied it ..
                                      well, i have sorted out solutions for that..the guys who are finding better games to spoof "instead of" are actually doing it by hit n trial method..so, when there is a match n the games installs n runs completely, they copy the "instead of" game or "to be spoofed " game's external file name 1.e., something like "eyjls39Hy' and paste it to the name of the downloaded game they want to install..

                                      so,my advice is 'DONT TRY' the hit n trial method, coz there are chances to end up with a bricked phone n if u cant flash it , u ll have send the phone back to samsung service center...
                                      so,better dont download the unedited/unmodified games, coz ur phone will be at risk..
                                      So, far i ve downloaded the edited versions or the games with "instead of" tag n i ve installed n run them all sucessfully..
                                      So,if u want any unmodified game to install, ask for it to be edited by those guys in the forum..till now they have done an excellent job n the are good at it..
