      AnonD-24964, 14 Feb 2012dear wavers have been contionously posting about my problem... moreI m not a techie but i would have perhaps tried
      Hard reset
      Full format of the memory card
      Flashing with any diff version which is reportedly less buggy
      And if still the problem persisted, then i dont know. Sth has gone wrong.

            AnonD-12498, 13 Feb 2012which firmwere u are using? Hi, Im using official BADA 2.0 firmware:
            2.01201051942 LISS8500XXLA1
            I expected that bada 2.0 would be improved by .swf and .gif formats because even .gif formats in Bada 1.2 are lagging (set as wallpaper) and in 2.0 .gif formats are lagging too.

                            Did somebody try to install bada 2.0 themes? My wave is laggy when i have theme with live wallpaper. Im using theme ICS 4.0 and live wallpaper is really laggy (like 10 fps) and menu is also laggy... Im not using any of preinstalled widgets, i have nothing minimalised so my Wave isnt overloaded, so is there any solution for this lags or we have to wait to another firmware(bada 2.0xxxx)?

Samsung deserves a "noble prize" for creating such a crap. AppStore plugins are updated every 15-20th day, while a bada device takes 2y to do the same. Shame! What a disparity!!

                                        samsung bloody kies is the most retarded software ever to have plagued a computer. samsungs user support is nonexistant unless you live in the UK/US and NONE of their software works as it should. the hours of life i have lost trying to make something work add up to a lifetime of yelling, frustration and throwing computer screens through closed windows. I am not buying another sasmung as long as i live
