      asgme, 24 Jan 2011Gr8 man! Very nice way to explain the path. I tried it 2... moreSir,

      I have used wave 1 as well as wave 2. In wave 1 we can change the decibel according to our wish from 58 db default to even 100 db. In wave 2 this is set as default in 55 db. Even if you try 100 times this will not change. Only option is we have to write in samsung forum about this, or else we have to go to samsung service centre and check whether they can change. And to be honest only after change from 55 db to 75 db wave2 can be greeted as the loudest handset with good clarity and bass while hearing through headset.

        BinGo, 22 Jan 2011Obviously Wave 1 is much louder than the new Wave 2. But yo... moreThis will not work in wave 2. They have set 55db as default. Even if you try to change severall times this remains constant unlike wave 1

              Amit, 25 Jan 2011is there any APP to view/unzip zipped files (.zip, zrar, .7... morein the apps store theres an app called WaveCompressor.its for the s8500 but you could try it in the s8530 and see if it works.only compresses and decompresses from the phone memory though so large files or a lot of files fill up the internal memory pretty quick.

                                      This phone is amazing! I am a proud owner of this phone from past 1 month.
                                      Really I love it….!
                                      1) Screen will rotate to 360°. Whichever direction u turn the screen, it will turn to that direction.
                                      But in Nokia N8 screen does not rotates to all direction.
                                      2) Wave 2 will play all HD videos (no need to convert). But N8 wont play AVI format videos.
                                      3) Wave 2 will capture HD videos! Which are incomparable. Mind blowing.
                                      4) Wave 2 overall performance is very faster than N8.
                                      But Wave 2 lag behind in battery back. Which has to be improved.
                                      Wave 2 go for it…

                                        sama, 24 Jan 2011@ asgme here is the post Here is the way... Type *#1... moreGr8 man! Very nice way to explain the path.

                                        I tried it 2/3 times but even entering more than 55DB it does not accept it in the 7th line. It remains at 55DB only.

                                        But I wonder that who are you? You are not a general user!
