      pohone is super fast..camera is very sharp ..music palyer is very good.....very gorgous display.....all is well.....and mind it the prise is not very high....if you compare it to sony ericsson vivaz or xpera x10 those are same specification but prise is higher than wave....

          still haven't got a proper answer to this , please help> Thanks

          Hi guys, I have a serious problem and I really someone here can help me
          basically tried to update my Kies, and it does complete only 14% of update and then it stops!!! there is no problem with my internet, or anything I could spot, but tried 3 times so far and everytime right at 14% it stops and asking for re-try?
          have you guys had this problem? or any problem updating?
          now I can't even access my downloaded apps in my laptop! because it wouldn't allow you to use the software till you update,

          what should I do

          PLEASE HELP, THANKS SO MUCH

                      I have been a Nokia addict, I just loved their S60 devices that can do almost anything but after using 5800xm, i was dissappointed by their double touch, it looks like using atm machine.

                      I still appreciate the Nokia quality and the best service centres. I previously used Samsung x600 which was an average mobile.

                      After nokia 5800 i went to buy Nokia e72 but i saw wave and loved it. I think i was some lucky guy that i got wave for 16500 INR. I think nobody has bought it for this price yet. The build quality is marvellous and i fell it on the floor once but due to invisible shield it only got minor scratch.

                      the most annoying thing is the charger pin slot, Samsung should give universal charger pin slot in all its mobiles, even my cousin have another samsung phone and it has different charger slot.

                      Otherwise, Wave is the best mobile in the market for the price, my best one.

                        u r right, i just noted that its still bada 1.0 and not bada 1.0.2 but its JH1 firmware

                        after using JH1 for 2 days, I don't see any major difference in performance. Some people said it will not give "Memory error" but its still giving memory error in messages.

                        Hope Samsung upgrade to bada 1.1 or any version that can solve the basic shortcomings in wave, i just love my wave, i have used iphone but wave is outstanding.

                        I have bought Zagg invisible shield from their website but after using it, i can't put it in leather pouch. I didn't like this shield, better use it without any protective shields, just screen protector

                                    If you update your firmware through Samsung KIES then all of your data, files, messages and installed apps will remain in there. It will not erase any of your data in your WAVE.

                                    Thanks.
