Step I: Download the latest version of Samsung Kies from official site of Samsung Kies. The latest version of Kies is: Kies_2.0.0.11044.

OR

You can download it from here: Samsung Kies Download Link

Step II: Open Samsung Kies and connect your Samsung Wave with PC (Wait for driver installation, if you have attached your phone for the first time with your pc)

As soon as Kies will detect your phone it will offer a prompt of new firmware update available, see the screenshot below


Firmware upgrade prompt

Click on UPDATE button

Step III: Now you will face a window of 'Agree to the Terms and Conditions." You can choose the option of save and don't save the information. This option is that, Samsung will store your information of IP and hardware specifications on their servers for 2 years. It is totally dependent on you, which you want to choose.

We would like to recommended you to choose "Allow saving"


Upgrade Terms & Conditions

Hit START UPGRADE button

Step IV: It is strongly recommended not to disconnect your phone from PC until the upgrading process is complete. So take care of it.

Within few minutes (depends upon the speed of your internet connection). Upgrading process will move on and will complete successfully.


Upgrade in Progress

Note: Don't use any options on your phone, while the upgrading process is taking place, your phone will be restarted. DON'T PANIC!

Your phone will come to working state automatically and your Samsung Wave is successfully upgraded to Bada 1.2

    First try switching off the phone normally, if that's not feasible remove the battery manually, wait for 10 sec's and restart the phone. If it reponds correctly all OK else go to settings, restore phone to factory settings(if prompted for password use 0000 or 00000 or 000000). Visit the nearest Samsung Service Center & get upgraded free of any charges.

    these steps should be attempted only if you get a frozen display, i.e. upgrading did not complete properly

I brought Samsun Wave GT-S8500 it failed to connect internet through 3g & even i tried to connect office accespoint it was connected in browser it was showing the dns failed Please help me what to do

Seems it's a bug from Wave but alternatively you can try to change your DNS.

1.  Temporarily urn off Wi-Fi on your phone
2.  Go to Settings --> Connectivity --> Wi-Fi and tap on your WLAN's name.
3.  Tap IP Address Type box

4.  Set DNS  8.8.8.8 (google's public DNS)
