brynn, 27 Aug 2010Congrats on reaching 50,000 votes Samsung Wave..I can't fathom how an unrelease phone like Nokia N8 has got 85,000 + votes. I thought one was supposed to vote post using the device for atleast a few days, not just on hearsay.

But as New waver (I think) pointed out most of the 50,000 votes for Wave are from users who have used it. While in case of N 8, it is from people based on speculation.

      Dear wavers help me, 27 Aug 2010Hey guys, today when i attached my phone with kies, i got F... moreYou can upgrade to the latest firmware. I have never used DDJE7, so I wouldn't know the difference between it and JH1.

      While most of the people on this forum have not reported issues with JH1, some have.

      You can upgrade with the memory card in the phone, no data on it will get deleted, nor will any data on the Phone memory or SIM card.

      But as an user Brynn advised quite a few posts back, don't try fixing it if it ain't broke.

      So it is your choice whether you want to upgrade or not.

                                Dear wavers,

                                I have been following your comments for over a month (i got my handset 3 weeks ago)

                                i really wana ask, what is all the fuss about the software upgrade??

                                mine came with jf4, i'm staying on that until kies detecting that another version is available for my country!

                                why try to upgrade and then complain about the newer software versions!

                                Be wise, WAIT.
