I paid way too much for a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Tab. I bought it in Nov. 2010 and the damn thing was $600. In Dec. they dropped the price to $500. That’s not the fucking.
Android was and is pretty cool stuff. Verizon like to “brand” the stuff they sell so the added on a bunch of cost-me-money-shit-if-I-use-it software and fucked up the bluetooth configs. VZW had the only (I think) Galaxy Tabs that would not work with a bluetooth keyboard. Assholes. I tried a few other ROM/kernel combinations, but there aren’t too many developers working on the VZW version of the tab. My understanding is because VZW makes it painful.
Anyway, 3-4 months later they finally released update to the firmware and OS and I was able to use my BT Keyboard. I still had to root the damn thing to be able to use WIFI in ad-hoc mod, but that was pretty easy.
Now, they want to push another update. I don’t want their fucking update; I like my tab just fine. I’ve been downloading Amazon Free Apps of the Day. I’ve got High Scores and shit like that. I don’t want to fucking change my system. It’s fine, leave the the fuck alone.
BTW, I don’t use your fucking Cell Service, so I can ignore you if I want. At least I should be able to. Fucking “Install Now, Remind me later” pop-up has been bugging me for the last week. I just get to a good part in one of my Nook Books (She pulls her panties down..) and this fucking thing pops-up in my face asking me to stop what I’m doing and let them fuck up my tablet.
Where is the Fuck-Off option?
Thankfully there are some great folks over at XDA-Developers working on a new ROM/Kernel for the VZW Tab. Hopefully I get to flash one more ROM and ride that thing till my tab HW dies.
I run Liberty 2 ROM on my D2 phone and I didn’t get fucked over by the GB Update VZW pushed recently. I spent 2 weeks on the phone and IM trying to fix my EX-wife’s D2 after she accepted the update.
Verizon Wireless — You’re forced updates SUCK.
Just to be fair: T-Mobile. That girl you have on TV now is hot… I likes. Your customer service (at least 10 years ago) was top notch. Your coverage and network SUCK!
Sprint — No one every wants to talk to you. Your CS sucks ass. It’s worse than the Credit Card Commercials with “Peggy”.
ATT — Everything about you sucks. … Everything… I just don’t know what else to say. You suck.
I need to buy some Anal Ease.. these people are killing my ass.
