@ deep

go to settings-connectivity-usb-samsung kies,
then open up kies on your computer, plug the phone in via usb cable, when you plug it in push the end key to close any runnning programs on the phone. this is important because if you have programs running on the phone it wont connect to the computer. the only things running in the task manager should be home and widgets, close the rest before connecting.

@ aaron

you can use the kies software to download need for speed via the apps application. On the bottom of the apps page in samsung kies you change the store to the united kingdom and make sure you have your phone plugged in to the computer with kies on (read above) then download nfs and it will transfer it to your phone. good luck.

    Hello wave user's.. for who bought their wave's for first time. before making any complaint about it, I suggest you to learn first how to use it. read the manual/instruction book carefully, learn how to.. where to.. when to.. and bla bla bla. until you master all the function and features. Then when you still have problems then you can complaint.

    I've used this phone for 1 month and did'nt have any problem since day 1. the battery life is good when u kno how to use it. the perfomance also gud, again when u kno how to use it, the calls, messaging, applications, features are very good, again again when u kno how to use it...

            SMS, 17 Jul 2010What is the difference between the 2GB (1.5GB?) and the 8GB... morethere are no difference between the 2gb and 8gb version except of course you can store 6gb more of data on the 8gb version. bear mind that the 8gb version is not yet available and hopefully will come out by the end of 2010.

              i have been a fan of Nokia since cellphones became popular. but after reading about the samsung wave, and after seeing the video reviews about wave, i am quite impressed! i've always been scared of changing cellphone brands but i thing the samsung wave is a must try phone :)

                Khush, 17 Jul 2010I can't sign in via Palringo. Trying it since 2 days but it... moreif the phone is unlocked with a vodafone sim it could be the phones fault.if its a vodafone locked unit then it might be vodafone.when phones are locked to a service provider they usually put their own stuff in the phone and sometimes this can cause a change in the way the rest of the phone works.

                  when i first got this phone it drained the battery flat overnight while i was asleep. make sure your all your settings are turned off like 3g, satelite location and i only do manual updating. i get a good 2 days out of the battery with moderate to heavy use. all the settings can be found in ylhr manual or on these pages.

                        Waka Waka Wave, 17 Jul 2010Hi guys there are two majore fault in WAVE 1:battery gets ... morei think you should have said (my wave have two major faults )because my wave's battery is the best among my previous phones ,today i left home at 8:00 am with the battery charged to 85% and came back home at 10:00 pm ,i did few calls ,used wifi and 3g browsing for few minutes ,run few applications,and the battery still has 52% for me it is enough.
                        and for brightness problem i did not notice that until now when i checked it and found it on 4,but it is not a major fault for me (major fault is like dropping calls) and i will investigate this behavior :)

                              Laurio, 17 Jul 2010Many people say there is no lag whatsoever.I have come accr... morefor me still no lag ,i am using 16 gigs card,with 4 gigs movies, for the multitask it is true multitask but only the calculator can not run in the back ground,otherwise i can open the calender and start typing and then open the memo ,tasks and start typing then i can open 2java application,open web browser,listen to music,open 2 3rd applications,and you know what all are running truly and i can change between them freely,so please have more time with your phone before giving us your opinion ;)
