I cant update my handset to latest firmware because it says there isnt an update for it, how do i check which version firmware i have anyway?
i am with 02 network here in England? is there anyway to get the update even if 02 havent released it yet?
does this cure the "not enough memory" error when reading SMS Text Messages, how crap is it that you have to turn your phone on and off to solve this problem, only for it to happen again and again and again!!!!

    I m running on jf2 bada 1.0.0. Nd m facing similar problm 4 last few days. It particularly happens when i use a live wallpdper widget downloaded 4m samsungwaveforum. When i used dat widget 2day, just to impress my frnds, my fone started working ultraslow nd it switched off nd started on its own a few times. That was quite embarassing nd i was a lot furious, what is d use of a 1Ghz processor if i cannot play a game wid just one widget running :-\ When i try 2 download applications 4m samsungapps, it says u need 2 update ur firmware, only then dis application will work properly on ur fone. And when i try 2 update my wave using kies, it says u dont have enough memory to continue; u must have atleast 25MB free memory 2 update ur firmware. Gosh, i've got more than enough memory on my fone nd memory card. This is really frustrating! Sum1 help me plz. Suggestions frnd:(

        irvinehooi, 20 Sep 2010@ iiwaver Sorry typo error..... Hi mate, every sing... moreI think Picasa is really nice for a few tweaks in d pics, if u r nt a adobe photoshop expert.
        I suggest applying d I AM FEELING LUCKY feature 2 all pics nd dat shud suffice 4 d tym being nd ur pics wud b pretty cuter.
        Nd guys plz dont compare 5MP camera of Wave wid ny 8MP camera. It wud b too hard on Wave's part. My N86's pics r far better in resolution nd clarity than my Wave though N86 itself is a lot laggy.

                  WAVERRRRRRRRR, 20 Sep 2010hi guys, what memory card do I need for this phone? what is... moreMemmory card class defines the transfer rate
                  higher the class, higher will be its transfer rate and higher will be its cost.
                  For wave Class 4 or higher will work well.

                    It says it supports java. Does that mean it also supports all java apps?

                        da samsung wave is awsome,i've owned one for about two months now. its fast,the camera is wicked(in fact its just as good as a lot of 8mp cameras on da market,even better than some). everywhere i go,the phones display captures ppls attention. samsung did a wonderful job. i just hope i will be able to upgrade to the new bada version for free when it is released.

                              I have the Wave and it is a really good handset. I love the apps on it, when I went to the store to purchase a new handset I wanted the iphone 4 but the sales agent demo'd this handset to me and I instantly fell in love with it. My partner has an iphone and wishes he'd have gone for the wave as well
