Can someone please help


why is my phone restarting sometimes when I am in camera mode or changing some options in camera mode?

It doesn't happen always. But sometimes like twice a day or twice a week... and unpredictable :(

    Hey Guys,I want to get this phone but I have couple of questions: does this phone support Arabic language (txting & browsing)
    I can see that the body is made of Aluminum but also I wanna make sure if it is weak like most of other Samsung mobiles?

      I've had my wave for about a month now and here's what I think Samsung should touch up on .

      The shuffle play in the music player is unreliable , often it repeats songs that have already been played .

      The camera could do with a little more sharpenin and contrast because pics are often blurry but when the phone does get it right pics are simply amazing .

      There needs to be an on screen back key , isn't the reason why we got a touch screen phone is to not use hardware keys ?

      Certain applications can't run simultaneously eg : you can't open a new application when viewing a document without picsel closing . So multi tasking feels restricted . Don't know how Nokia have perfected it albeit they do compromise on performance on the performance of the which Samsung do not .

      The galley shouldn't be integrated , I don't like the fact that videos and images are displayed together . Oh and it would be nice if you could hide certain files so they don't appear in the media viewer as I'm sure every guy as at least one or two pics to hide lol .

      Widgets defiantly need redesigning , too many home screens get's cumbersome . It would be nice if widgets fitted onto the screen and didn't take up so much space .

      Wave Bada needs more shortcuts like Nokia . Eg : when you touch the time the clock application launches .

      But the wave is still one of the most complete and deficient handsets out there without question .

                      Hi! Can anyone please tell me which is the latest firmware in India. Mine is DDJh1_INU and the sound of the loudspeaker is very low even when increased to maximum.

                      Thanks!

                                  wave is a great phone. but it lacks many apps for it to be called a smartphone.. wave is a "multimedia phone".. i think. so i decided to switch to galaxy S .. and android os is really far better than the bada os..

                                      samsung R&D guys r not fools to include everything ..they hav their own lcds n camera lenses(schneider kreuznach)..upcoming mobiles will see these lenses embedded..thn nokia n sony ericcsson will just get dumped..
                                      DO u people think GALAXY S cudnt have a flash..!!!
                                      it cud surely hv...this is samsung's profit making strategy..they have a hit in galaxy S ..n whn the selling of this model gets low..they will upgrade it with a xenon flash

                                        @ those who are complaining bout camera

                                        I agree that the wave's camera output on pc is a bit weaker than N82 or N97 mini's..
                                        but u cant have all the things at 18k ..if ur competitiors tease bout camera , thn take a fw snaps..show them ..agree that its not better than their..
                                        thn to tease thm play the games, play the video....they will get F***ED straight away..
