      Use sub-camera

      Key in the dial pad

      *#197328640#

      then press 6 then 4 then press OK

      From now on, sub-camera can use for capture, video record in HD

      To come back main cam. do it again

                      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.
                      android,io4 and poor symbian don't have any chance against bada.There are over 2000 aplications and the number grow every day.Bada ROCKS !!!!!!!!!!!!

                                        What is the main reason for withdrawal of this successful model within 7 months? Display shortage is absolute rumor. I think overheating, complicated connectivity and short battery life is the main culprit. That's why Samsung opt for Wave II.
