                        Not sure what's happening, but my Wave has slowed down quite a bit since morning. Photos take longer to load, scrolling is not smooth etc. It was working fine for the past 2 weeks.
                        Could this be because of too many applications? I have nearly 20 of them installed.
                        I tried rebooting the phone, but the problem persists. Could a phone reset clear the issue? CPU says 1% all the time.

                              Bought this phone two weeks ago.hardware and display are great.that's all.cannot download avi file tells content unsupported.but samsung tells this phone is divx supported.even my previous nokia n73 download avi file even though it cannot play divx videos out of box. keypad sucks typing message is terrible.no connection manager to see whether your internet connection is intact or not.nokia phones may be inferior in user interface and display.but they are great for day to day use.i am disappointed with my wave.anybody who want to buy this phone think twice

                                    Hi guys today i will solve the problem for WAVE USER having problem to update FIRMWARE through kies and to connect ur wave very easily especially for SAURAV whos has trouble to up date his FIRMWARE
                                    JUST UP DATE UR KIES FOR LATEST VERSION and follow the steps
                                    What you do is this.

                                    - Go to the program where you install Samsung KIES.
                                    - Open te folder.
                                    - Search those files: _rapi.dll and _ceutil.dll
                                    - Copy both files and drop it on your dekstop.
                                    - Now make from _rapi.dll = rapi.dll

                                    - Now make from _ceutil.dll = ceutil.dll
                                    - So what you did is, you removed '' _ ''
                                    - Now take both files and drop it in the folder of KIES.

                                    - Replace them.
                                    - Now open Kies again and everything will work OK.
