Re: Samsung Wave S8500 India release??

ok kies finally up and running!

(the problem was with dotnet fixed)

searched all over for full body cover no where found...

finally bought a 50Rs sheet, the guy skillfully cut out the exact size and pasted it.....looks good

contacts imported from outlook without any hiccups

(getting the contact from my pearl to outlook was a pain though)

planning to go for airtel unlimited gprs plan Rs98 (anyone experienced this?)

dont want to change my number for mtnl 3g :(

STILL ONE PROBLEM!!

when i go to apps section inside kies....it says..........this service is not available for your location!

anyone got any pointers on this one??

thats coz when u installed Kies you selected location as US (remember the very first screen when installing Kies). There is no app store for US yet. Change the location to UK and you can download,buy and install apps from Kies :)
 
Re: Samsung Wave S8500 India release??

went to settings and changed language from "english-US" to "english-UK" ....still getting the same message!!

now reinstalling the whole thing..

the day i find that smart ass programmer who thought linking the language with the location preference would be cool........ i am gonna *&^*&%%^%$^#%^$%^!!!
 
Re: Samsung Wave S8500 India release??

hey changing the language does not change the location. When you first install kies the first screen you get is the option for the language and location. when you reinstall make sure you select location as UK. you can keep the language as US

Re: Samsung Wave S8500 India release??

Can anyone confirm whether the browser got full flash support or not? Can it run live streaming videos of sites likes justin.tv and ustream? I know youtube works (like symbian phones) but what about justin and ustream?
 
Re: Samsung Wave S8500 India release??

Any proud owner here ! Can you confirm the below,

1). Does this phone comes preloaded with a document viewer,i read that it comes loaded with a picsel document viewer( for viewing word,excel,power point & pdf files, need confirmation on this. Also is it limited only to viewing or we can edit also.

2) specs suggest it has push email, has anybody tried it.

This two factors would influence my purchase to a great extent so please need your feedback on this.

Thanks

the browser does have flash support but it acts up. sometimes it works properly and at other times it Jus doesn't. live streamin from a site doesn't work that well. the video lags. a firmware update hopefully will fix this.
