ha! I wouldn't switch my nexus if I got paid to do so. I've had just about every major phone Verizon offered. This phone and my original Droid were by far the just reliable and best phones I've had. Worst phones were definitely the thunderbolt and dinc 2.

Not a sense fan. ANYWAYS, maybe the new clean ROM will make her happy. Or I'll just get her a nexus. Ha!
[HTC Rezound] danielkuhlman:
Snort some wasabi, that'll clear up all of your congestion ;)

when the hell is htc gonna release an update for our phone? if management were smart they would sub contract our developers for help in releasing quick updates

i woke up today and realized i had to work 10 hours. then, around hour 6, my boss called to ask if i could work 10 hours tomorrow, too. sigh. i hate real life. lol BUT the reason he wants me to work is because he's got a meeting for a potential 21-line business to come over to verizon through us, so hey, if that pans out, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
[HTC Rezound] danielkuhlman:
I worked for att customer support when the iPhone 4 came out. They offered unlimited overtime for overa month. I worked 16 hour days. It was grueling but the paycheck was tasty
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Oh how I hate Apple , thou art evil in every way.

You suck

You suck you suck

Balls
[HTC Rezound] danielkuhlman:
I'm assuming you're talking about Apple? Hey man, I witnessed the **** first hand, Apple is awful. Fortunately, Steve jobs died...

Was that inappropriate? Oh yeah, for people that don't know, someone is making a movie on Steve jobs life, and Ashton kutcher is supposedly playing the douche of the century himself. Great, another reason to hate Ashton kutcher.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
ashton kutcher is such an apple cocksucker it's ridiculous. even in 2.5 men, he plugs his retarded iphone, imac and ipad all the time. can't stand it.
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
When I was growing up, one of my best friends talked, I swear just to hear himself, constantly. He would talk for 20 minutes, and not say a Damn thing. He is still one of my best friends, and I have learned to live with it.

Fast forward to the present:

I would swear that he is in the Rezound forums, talking, changing subjects, and injecting himself needlessly where he isn't needed. Some people just need to learn when, and when not to speak.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Guys apple may not be the nicest or fairest company but you have to give them credit for some things. They are really great innovators. Hell, The whole basis of android is credit to apple. I hate iOS but a fact is a fact
[HTC Rezound] demmo86rt:
I would say WERE great innovators. They seem to have gotten away from that.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
What is all the hate on apple? I do agree that they are putting bans on countries for basically no reason, but what else?

Steve Jobs pushed his employees to make the best, they did, and still do. I hate when all of these people say that apple sucks, but don't give a reason. Sounds like ignorant die-hard fanboys to me.
[HTC Rezound] danielkuhlman:
Apple is a ****ing dictatorship. It's their way or no way all. You give me one thing Apple has done that was not started by someone else, and I'll ****ing pay you. They take technologies created by other people and claim they made it etc. everything that is Apple is a lie. Do some research, just because Apple copyrighted it doesn't mean they created it.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
agree, its really a shame all the patents they get when they were not the one that invented the tech, just made it better.

Apple takes product ideas and does make them better. But all the suing over these BS patents is getting old.
[HTC Rezound] demmo86rt:
Shortly after he died, I watched the Steve Jobs tribute documentary that was hosted by the Mythbusters guys and, as they highlighted each of his "achievements", after each one, they made the statement, "He didn't invent it, but he perfected it." It was easily the most common phrase in the whole show.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Um I don't know, the hate could be because Apple is a greedy controlling juggernaut that attempts to create a monopoly in the the tech world through frivolous litigation.

Maybe anyone who works for sprint and htc could be angry with Apple for using their influence to damage the company they work for? HTC'S stock fell 6 percent because of the custom seizures.

You seriously are asking why the hate for Apple? Sprint is hanging on by a thread partly because of their dealings with Apple and Apple ruthlessly uses their influence to stop shipments of all htc high end phones. Over a pathetic UI feature that everyone uses. And because somehow Apple found a sympathetic court.

And this wasn't a landslide decision. It was a close controversial decision.

Not only is it reprehensible it borders on criminal.

Why the hate. I want to know why there isn't more outrage.

And the definition of ignorant fanboy is apple pal. Your talking about people that thought they had a 4g phone because of the name.

Yeah we really need to be less ignorant and allow apple to do as they please. What a load of garbage
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
I remember when MS got taken to court by the US gov't because they wouldn't let other internet browsers on windows, yet apple doesn't allow most anything on the iphones that competes directly with one of their stock programs. Keyboards come to mind.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Well i would imagine they are in for a fight now. The gloves are off.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I disagree with a lot that Apple does but, they know how to make people buy into the hype, and over pay for it. It's really smart, and a lot of people are oblivious to it unfortunately. I can't express how annoying it is when people try to "convince" me by arguing that Apple is the best and blah blah, when they really have no clue at all. Can't argue with idiots, you can laugh at them though lol.

Apple products aren't bad by any means, but there is almost always a better product that's the same price or less even.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I actually recommend i*phones for some people. But for me android with the complex layers and ability to customise it for the individual can't be beat. Only reason I recommend it..... I don't need another full time job fixing what they messed up. Seriously please read the thread and issues before you jump into flashing and for gods sake at least do a clean install before asking me why everything is forced closing.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Dude right. I recommend them too if I know that the person wouldn't take the time for android or care about the extras it has/does. Some people NEED iPhones lol.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
I don't have a problem with the products Apple makes. There not for me but i see why people would enjoy them. My issue is how they do business
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
I agree they do business badly but they do make some nice stuff
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i don't even have to go into why apple is a garbage corporation and how they're the epitome of typical bull**** american corporatism because it seems everyone else already has for me.

thanks for saving me some anger :)
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
I think its funny how everybody comes back with "Apple didn't invent it". Well... duh.

Apple doesn't make its own products and every technology they use was created by some other company or person.

My point is that Apple has very dirty business practices, but develops wonderful products. They just work. Steve jobs pushed his employees to take the technology and perfect it. Which they do.

I hate the walled garden of apple, but as also stated before, some people just need iPhones. My dad asked me what phone he should get, ( he is a technology idiot) , I told him to get an iPhone.

But, obviously I have an android phone when it was actually easier for me to get an iPhone so I must like other things too.

For me, when it comes to computers, nothing beats a Mac. When it comes to mobile devices, I want to check out the other options out there.

My thoughts, to each his own.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
my dad asked me what phone to get (he's a technology idiot), i told him to get an LG Revere. and he did. and he enjoys it.

to you, nothing beats mac. to me, nothing beats PC; and add to that, i'd never buy a mac. different opinions will always be around.

the problem that PC has, that apple capitalized on, is that idiots use computers. like, real idiots who always have problems. i've never in my life had a problem with windows, or a computer i owned, that was caused by the OS or because it was a PC. however, when idiots browse the web and use PC's, since they're idiots, they get viruses, malware, etc etc etc and then complain that PC's suck because of it. little do they realize, their PC sucks because of their own idiocy.

My damn screen timeout keeps disabling itself somehow, and the screen just stays on and never sleeps!! WTF is going on with this damn thing?!:mad::mad::mad:
[HTC Rezound] danielkuhlman:
This is the only argument I hear from Apple users. "my phone/mp3 player/Mac just works". Great. So does mine and it's not an Apple product. I worked for att for a couple years. So many phone calls about people with muffed up iPhones. Those people never said "it just works". I even sold many of them captivates :)

I agree iPhones are decent for people who aren't technology minded. As long as their iPhone doesn't crap out on them. I refer to them as smartphones for dumb people.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Macs aren't bad. But I build PCs that have more than double the performance for less money lol. My computer is waayyyy over spec'd than my bfs iMac and after buying a 400 dollar monitor on top of it, it is still less expensive than his iMac. "but I just like Apple and blah blah" to be fair he did get all the new CS5 software for FREE, which blows my mind cuz that **** is a few thousand dollars. Also to be fair, I do still have the iPod color xD paid like 700 dollars for it when it first came out (the 60 gig) when that one craps out ill find a newer 80 gig one probably, I like how simple they are and I like the scroll wheels. I do not like the new touch screen ones as much.
[HTC Rezound] chefthomas99:
While plugged in?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
No, seems to just turn the screen timeout off randomly and "Keep awake while charging" is disabled.... :confused::confused:

It has to do with the older power management, I think. When the battery hits <25%, automatically animations are disabled, screen is darker, cpu speed reduced, and sometimes those settings get stuck even after re-charging. I think its a bug in the older ICS build :(
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I hate when a manager schedules a meeting, then forgets about it. Even when seeing you after the meeting was scheduled, it doesn't register. Especially when said manager isn't qualified for the position. I'm not going to remind you of a meeting you scheduled because you wanted to discuss things. Wasn't responsibility part of climbing the corporate ladder at one point in time? And how are you going to manage something you know nothing about? Then upon getting the job, start changing things immediately without observing what currently happens and deciding what works and what doesn't, followed by changing things that you are responsible for without consulting you or communicating to you about those changes......

THEN, give you sh*t about needing to take off to see family concerning medical issues because "its not good for the business." Even though months/years before this occasion you had been telling management that you need another employee, not only to handle the current situation the department is in, but for situations like this that could come up.

Okay....think I'm done for now.....
[HTC Rezound] danielkuhlman:
You sound like you work for the railroad too.
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
Hahaha! Actually I work in a clinic. I'm a one man lab.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
I agree. Most problems with any computer (Mac/PC) is user error. I have been using a windows laptop for 3 solid years with often problems but nothing like blowing up or whatever. I have had the blue screen at least 5 times. But that's because I am always doing mods/hacks/whatever to all of my stuff so that's acceptable.

Macs are just more stupid-people proof.

They do work. But you are right, my android phone "just works". :)

Apple makes alot of things easier, but at the same time, when something does go wrong, it can be extremely difficult to fix it.

Yes, I do believe that you can build a way better computer specification-wise than a Mac for less money. That doesn't mean it will work as well.

But, for a non tech savvy person, that isn't an option. And, even for someone like me, building a computer is a very involved process. Buying a Mac is just easier, but more expensive.

If I had $3000 laying around, I would build a Hacintosh and triple boot OS X, Ubuntu, and Windows.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Apple shouldn't be building tools to help stupid people to be more productive in the world... Instead, they should make them harder to use to encourage learning and critical thinking!

...Or, I guess we could be raise our education standards in this country so we have fewer stupid people.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
:D

That is the solution we need. People are so stupid these days. I'm only 16 and I know it.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
like i said earlier, my pc is parts are what, 2 years old at most, and i built this thing for $230....and this desktop will blow away a mac, plain and simple, and i don't even have the best specs in it. apple is def. for people who don't know wtf they're doing.

i refer to the iphone as "baby's first smartphone."
[HTC Rezound] rsage:
and blanket statements like that only display ignorance ;) i kid jayochs, i kid...

i use macs in my studio because osx is the only platform that supports the software i want to run (and i assure you i know wtf i'm doing ;)). i use pc's as a development platform because that's the platform that supports the dev tools i want to use.

i have an old iphone. all my new phones are androids, because that's what i prefer to use for a phone.

my hatred of apple didn't start until they launched their lame ios patent war.

by the way, you do know osx is built on top of unix (bsd i think), the predecessor to linux? dual/triple booting and virtualization all work quite well on macs as well. i have two macs in the studio that have been running strong for 10 years and still do what i need them to do. never had a pc do that.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
you're right, that statement should be revised.

Apple mobile products are for people that don't know wtf they're doing

and again, like I said, I've got a dell up and running strong for 7 years so far with no problems, which is a DELL pc of all things, and not even custom built. so yeah. I've had a pc that will run for years.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
I hope everyone here has the basic knowledge that both OS X and iOS are like 75% Linux and Unix.

I liked the statement "I likee apple before they started the iOS patent war".
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
I

HATE

GOOGLE

TALK

ON

ICS.

it's such god damn garbage!!! it groups texts together and none of it is in a row. it will show all my friends messages to me together and mine together so that you can't read it like a god damn normal conversation. this only started in the newest version. wish I could down grade to the old gb talk, because this **** is terrible.
[HTC Rezound] BreatheALittle:
OMG I thought that was only a glitch with my phone/app! That pisses me off so much. I miss half the messages I get in a convo cause they are grouped and I forget to scroll up to see if the person said something.

Seriously, is there a way to go back to the old version?
[HTC Rezound] BreatheALittle:
I just downloaded BeejiveIM for GTalk. Um, this is amazing. If you're annoyed with the Gtalk version, try this. I love it. Completely customizable. :)
[HTC Rezound] Khayos:
Disable talk, install Trillian

Dude I was just playing battlefield 3 and this was on the load screen

Edit damn I didn't get all of it

Edit 2

Found it
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
bahaha awesome :D

also i have trillian, but i dont like to keep it running all the time...i dont mind google talk, because it doesn't kill battery too much, but trillian def uses more.

[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Hey. Watch it. :D
[HTC Rezound] RoryHe:
me and my ex girlfriend were making in-roads and were suppose to go on a mini date last Friday(2 days ago), she ask if it was okay to reschedule didn't say why, and then hasn't said anything since.

I mean if she doesn't want to go then she should say so.

I called her to see whats up and she is just ignoring me, if she doesn't want me to bother her she should just say something, pissing me off and making me confused.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Trying to figure out the mind of a woman in those matters is a monumental task.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
You should definitely call her out on that.
[HTC Rezound] RoryHe:
Yeah this is just i don't even know.

I should just not care about her anymore, I guess; but it's hard.

Especially if she will pull more stuff like this in the future... still waiting for a call or text to explain wtf is up
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Had a girl do this to me, pretty much dude you just need to cut her off imo because she's just going to keep you there waiting, and only when she needs something will she pay attention. It seems hard but No point in putting yourself through this kinda crap for no reason
[HTC Rezound] RoryHe:
so i should just not pay attention to her or anything pretty much?
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
That's what i would do at this point

Or you could slowly distance yourself from her if that's easier for you

I found something else to do instead so I just forgot about her, that's how i got good at the guitar :)
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Hurt her feelings and tell her to get out. I got so tired of stupid girl drama, making me miserable, I switched to guys as of late. Will probably go back to girls eventually. I can do that though... most people don't roll both ways 0.o
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Ummmm... What?
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
.............
[HTC Rezound] BreatheALittle:
Unfortunately, girls will do this. Then again, I've had a guy do this to me, too. So long as they know that you are at their beck and call, they will keep stringing you along until they no longer need you. Cut the connection. It may suck and totally hurt right now, but in the long run, you'll feel a lot better knowing that you didn't allow yourself to get walked all over.

Well, platinumrims, I'd say you are lucky... you have a much wider selection than some of us. ;) One of my closest friends enjoys his options as well. Whenever he gets tired of crazy chicks, he goes to boys for a while. When he gets tired of boys and their games, he goes back to chicks. LOL

What's confusing? Remember guys... there's all kinds of people in this world. Acceptance is key.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Eww.....
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Eww.....

I wonder if people could accept that I'm a murderer. :)

What are you, twelve years old? Grow up.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
wow, post of the forums!

To each their own. I like that my wife rolls both ways, makes things more exciting!
[HTC Rezound] RoryHe:
We were broke up before and like when i got about to the point of not caring anymore she came back just wanting to be friends, i made it clear i can't just do that so thats why we were going to have a mini date but there is no reason why she completely turned into a c#$%. I keep just thinking she will come around and it will be like it was. but i guess its just done at this point. :/
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
There's a lot of things confusing about that. You have more experiences with that type of thing first hand, so you would obviously be more open to that: I haven't. Forgive my ignorance, but it does confuse me and I personally will never understand it; I can accept that. I think it's safe to say you probably don't understand either. Delving into the mind and human pyschology is so complex it's inconceivable to try to understand anyone except yourself. We all perceive things so different in our convoluted perspicacities.

Do you have any trust issues, though? I'm assuming you've had a threeway with said wife, but do you get nervous she would ever leave you for another woman? Or maybe you find out she goes out and gets nasty with another girl without you there. Would you consider that cheating? I'm sure you set up ground rules and if she was monogomous, she would be regardless of sexual attraction.

Just would like to know your take on the situation just in case the opportunity ever arises for me. ;) Sounds like you're pretty cool with it though.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I'm makes me happy that my post has brought us all closer xD

I probably won't ever get married, but I guess I can't say for sure. I can't say I wouldn't mind kids in the future, but if they were bad I'd give them away or sell them (troll face). Unfortunately, most girls flip their **** when I tell them about myself. Even if we've been happy for months. That's when you know how they really are. I won't say specifically lol.

Guys are the same, they think I'll run off on them, or they are just a little weary I guess (when we first meet, mind you). I just say, I wouldn't be with you if I didn't want only you. Then call them an asshat for doubting me. I've never cheated on anyone. I'm not a cheater. But being this way can be confusing at times, used to be REALLY confusing lol. Being a genuine and honest person isn't confusing though. I had to learn to be as honest with myself as I am with others. Not easy, or wasn't easy. I'm not the type for "open relationships" either. But if you love you only have eyes for the one you love. I believe that, I live it.

I've never had trust issues. Except in one relationship that took me to hell and back emotionally, just made me smarter in the end. I'm rreaaalllyy good at reading people though...

To stay on topic... I'm glad I got that off my chest. :D
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
That's just nasty to me.

Being gay is a choice that people make to get attention or to do something else if the opposite sex isn't working. Just wrong.

Call me ignorant, call me close-minded. Whatever. Doesn't change what I think.

got that off my chest....
