If it still doesn't work it might be faulty.

          Rohit, 14 Oct 2010Hi All, I am having few problems with wave. 1.While loggin... moreya, it takes an hour to lock onto u=your position. best advice i can giv u is to go stand on ur terrace. :P

          also, check if u have an active gprs/edge/3g connection... it's essential

            Roshan Jos Thaliath, 14 Oct 2010Dear Narcolepsy, Thanks a lot for the detailed explanati... morebada 1.2 is great, the browser is faster and the mutlitouch is more sensitive. the t9 trace input for messaging is fantastic and the software is so fast and stable. If you want to upgrade there is a good explanation on how to do it via mutliloader a few pages back on this forum. I did it this way and I am no computer geek. If you are not confident to try it this way I heard it will be out via kies at the end of november.

                No doubt, it is the best mobile till date. user interface is really fluid... better than ifone. all things work very well wifi, gps, media player, bluetooth, net surfing! the only negative point about this fone is you easily fall in love with it ;-)

CP ART runs the phone at full power and will drain the battery a lot faster, AP ART is like a power saving setting and your battery should last a good 3 times longer than it does in CP ART. i have mine set to ap art and can get 2-3 days with heavy use and im running bada 1.2 with good battery life. some people say that running the phone on ap art will slow down the phones performance but i have not noticed any difference in performance just a big increase in battery life.
