                    @ black bird

                    how come you know all this that samsung co. was not earning any profit from samsung wave s 8500. hence they stopped the models.. and tell me why would a company will sell its product at such a rate that it can't earn profit.... they pay to their marketing managers.. and according to my knowledge they will not select such range at the stake of their jobs.. they are not paid for making guesses, they are paid because they have to keep such a range such that the company does not have to bare any loss...

                                        For all those wavers who are facing battery issues in their Wave handsets, i want to share something important which can increase their battery performance.

                                        There is a malware/virus in majority of the external memory cards provided with the wave handsets by Samsung. This malware is always running in the background and utilizing the CPU, which consumes a lot of extra battery life without any usage. Even in the idle mode it is keeping the CPU busy and consuming battery in idle mode as well.

                                        The solution is simple however, jusy connect your devide in mass storage mode to any PC which has a good antivirus sofware installed. Clean you memory card with it and now the battery life will be increased further.

                                        I am having the battery problem in my Wave and have tried so many thing but in vain. But after cleaning the memory card the battery performance increased significantly. I hope it will help quite alot wavers in this forum.

                                        Thanx!!
