    The pictures dont do the phone justice - its way better looking in real life cos the grey is just a shade lighter than black and the black plastic bits merges well with the grey aluminium body just perfectly

      anand, 05 Jul 2010how to get the latest firmware actually do i need to upgra... morehey even me from India.. bought the phone 3 days back.. my firmware is JF1..
      regarding my battery, its not lasting that long as told by gsmarena.. but am not much concerned, coz the battery needs to get conditioned, which will happen with some continuous use..
      also my gps was not working till today.. went out to my terrace, and checked and it worked! very happy!
      one more thing ;) type *#06*#.. you can check out the front camera, a very basic digital compass also in sensors..
      hope some developer develops a effective digital compass with a good UI.. am very sure it will happen in some time.. coz the phone has got everything, just need people to develop things for it..

            The auto complete of visited links in the Dolphin browser is certainly there (as scoopyscoopy too has pointed out). You can check this actual screenshot from my Wave:

                                Hi, I've changed the setting to save the messages to the phone memory. Thanks god now the scheduled message is working properly.

                                After I set that, I tried to schedule the message to send at least 5 mins after. Because previously I just set the schedule to send the message after 2 mins. Then it happen the restart itself.

                                I still cannot figure out what is causing this behind.

                                Thanks for your reply.

                                    Hi, call blocker is working flawlessly in Samsung WAVE. You not even need to install such app to your phone.

                                    Just go to "Settings" > "Application" > "Call" > "All Calls" > "Auto Reject". You need to manually add the number that you want to block.

                                    Thank you.
