Altamash, 26 Jun 2010Has anybody figured out how to enable "Smart unlock&qu... morewhat do you mean "Smart Unlock"?

You can not program unlocking feature in Wave:

Lock button (very convenient):
- short press - half lock (phone still in "sweep to unlock" status for a few seconds, screen power down and lock all the keys)
- long press - full lock (the phone locked and screen power down immediately)

Unlock:

- short press - half unlock (you need to sweep the screen to fully unlock)
- long press - full unlock (the phone is completely unlock)

      This is one truly amazing phone...
      and i got this in India for just Rs. 18000 which is like 315euros...
      but its true that a huge app support for bada will take time and for now i m ready to wait for it..

          Has anybody figured out how to enable "Smart unlock" or "Guesture lock" on Wave?
          Does it exist?

                          Any one knows how to store text messages in MC? In phone only appears option SIM and Phone. In the phone the MAX is 1300.

                            I'm iphone user.
                            I'v tried this phone yesterday.
                            If I don't consider Apps.
                            This is best smart phone considerign price.
                            Better than iphone or gelexS
                            UI is also more user frendly than iOS.

                                    Does anyone have this on Vodafone? Does the Voafone one have a specific OS dedicated to Vodafone or are all Waves the same on all networks? Thanks

                                      i read your post on multitasking.
                                      you mentioned that you can run 4 native apps and 1 3rd party apps.

                                      what does that 3rd party apps mean?
                                      is it a java app?
                                      can you please confirm me whether we can install java apps in it from www.getjar.com?

                                        In case anyone wants to encrypt files with a password (photos, videos etc.) you can use a program called MobyExplorer ...its a java program that samsung wave runs great. Now my phone is complete :)
