Goto badaforums.net most of the firmware related problems have solutions/workarounds there.

If still Kies is not working for you then flash your wave with your region's FW. Less pain more gain. Kies is utter rubbish.

Try posting your query in the samsungwave forums. In worst case scenario, get it done from samsung service centre
 
Hi guys,

I am not able to update the firmware to 1.2 as the firmware update button is grey out in the kies.

Anyone facing this issue? If yes, pls guide to solution.

I was able to update through Windows 7 32 bit installed on my laptop only while internet is supplied via Wifi. It didnt work when the connection was wired. It was completely random. But Im happy that atleast that worked. :) And good luck with your update. :)

I did the same thing, worked perfectly fine, seemed a little bit risky but all's well that ends well, GPS is better now, overall a recommended update
 
@Tommy_vercetti: Cool Man and also Standby time will be slightly higher :)

@All: New Samsung Kies version has been released 2.0.0.11044_11
 
Try this both

# Pass = samsung-firmwares.com

## Pass = samfirmware.com Sure one will work
 
Every day I log into the Samsung App and all i see is themes. New themes. Themes Themes Themes.

I'm f'in tired of it.

The only saving grace are the Gameloft Games. (They are awesome).

Guys download Spiderman :Total mayhem if you haven't already.

It's worth every single penny.

I am willing to pay for good apps and Games, but atleast provide us with some.

Such a great hardware, not a bad OS...but all these is going down because there are no applications to utilize it :(
