[deleted post]Firstly I already have a Wave, a Samsung Omnia HD and a Nokia N95 and for me the Wave is better than all of them put together. Sure its not perfect but what phone is? If ur so bitter just sell it and get another phone and move on! Ur remarks are pathetic! Honestly you sound like a school kid who's been grounded by their mom! I don't have a problem with people who criticise that's fine u are entitled to ur opinion but if u don't like it go and find a second hand Nokia 3310 and be done with it but don't insult people who actually like the phone because thank god they don't all think like u do!

I have been using Wave for last 5-6 months, initially i was a great advocate of the phone, but recently this phone is bugging me a lot.
few are:
very low memory space for sms.
out of memory problem in now cropping up even with just 2-3 apps in background.
Font size too big.
poor battery backup.
Cant download anything from the browser.
Doesnt support flash.
Other cheaper phones takes just 10-15 sec to lock GPS position and this shitty phone uses 2-3 mins.
Its alarm features has ditched me several times, now i use my 6 yr nokia for that purpose.
I feel cheated ... when all these features are available in any 12-13K phone available in market.
What will you do with all great features when the basic features are shitty.

[deleted post]Will U plz stop? Wave is a gr8 phone & little idiot like u want to tear it off. It have route 66 instead of gmaps which is also good as it's used in navigators of nokia. Ya wave has small share of games. So what? android & iphones also hav small share of games Most of their apps r junks like themes, wallpapers etc. If u don't wanna buy games then spoof them. its easy. Plz don't blame our good phone.

Insert a 4GB or less memory card and you can update the phone. After updation, you can again put back your original card.

I have been using Samsung Wave since July 2010 and I'm very happy with this device. All the features are good especially the built, design and display. But I'm disappointed with the performance of GPS.
I tried to update firmware through Kies recently. I got a message saying to clear memory of 16MB. After clearing all the messages and removing some applications I got the message again. Any solutions please?

bidi, 12 Jan 2011can anyone tell, is it possible to change font size of this phone, specially for phone book an... moreunfortunately no, you can not change the font size in this phone. although font size options are available in other basic good phone but not available in this masterpiece, disgusting. wave screen is undoubtdly best in the world. screen resolution is great so small fonts must had look marvelous, specially while reading text messages and you were not required to scroll and scroll to read messages. default message text size is huge and give you a feeling of a cheap basic phone. it is just a waistage of screen real estate and 480 x 800 pixles become useless.
same is the case of phonebook. here also, no font size option. so often you can not read full names. had the font size option be there, you could have adjust more contacts in single frame and less scrolling while finding contacts. it really gives a cheap look to the phone and works like a basic low price handset. so in wave, high resolution is only benificial while browsing and waching movies. I am using this phone for the last 6 months. phone is good but not as good as hyped except design, construction and super AMOLED. it has many flaws and honestly I don,t feel it is a smart phone. there are many people in this form who just can not listen anything against wave, but my friends think rationally. it really neads a lot of upgrades to become great masterpiece and I am doubtfull samsung will ever do it because samsung had very poor customer support history and they rarely fulfill customer demands. so just enjoy whatever you have in your pocket.

Im afraid that samsung will not release any update on it's flash player...also the app store has abundant apps...this really frustrates me..the out of memory problem really anoys me..when your messages are full it always display out of memory..so you need to delete and reboot again.bada is good but updates are poor...hope they work out on its browser..flash player..memory..and most important thing updates every 2 or 3 months..T_T samsung hope your listening!!!!
