I can only speak for me personally, but I think most people would agree. I have yet to see anyone who is against a lawsuit being filed. Sure we see people saying it will never work, waste of time, etc. But no one is saying PLEASE DON'T SUE THEY DID NOTHING WRONG. People's gripe here, is not the topic, it is the messenger. The stones have been cast, so I'm not going to harp about it again, but suffice it to say that the OP has made a fool of himself and people are calling him out on that.

The argument even deteriorated into what is the true definition of fascism, I mean you can see why a noob like myself would come to the conclusion that many just want to fight for the sake of fighting right?

I have a copy of the e-mail from the lawfirm confirming no such case is being handled by their firm. Credit: Agent Jones.

I will not paste of copy of the exchange until we have heard back from the lawyer that it is ok to publish his information.

If anyone would like a copy of the email, feel free to PM me with your email address. I can send it to you, MicBeast, as well.
[Vibrant General] Br1cK'd:
See my post above yours. This forum, Vibrant specifically, is teeming with, what did someone say a little earlier, tween like attitudes. If you can bear to weed through and ignore the drama, you can learn a lot here.

:rolleyes:

No, I was not threatening you as I am not an internet thug. If anything, I was cautioning you about what you say on an open internet forum when, if you did file a lawsuit, your personal info becomes public record. And while I'm sure you would appreciate the positive publicity, I think you also lost sight that you would attract negative publicity as well.

And I didn't call you a psycho, I said you could be perceived as a psycho. Even if I DID call you one, I have every right to (although probably not kosher with XDA rules) as it is my perception of you based on your public comments.

At the crux of internet forums, the idea of libel (since this is written) has changed from prior days of print media. To prove libel, you need to prove we intentionally smeared your good name with out cause or logically reasoning. All Agent Jones, TJ, and myself have done is researched, quoted, and refuted you. Sorry but this does not meet the litmus test for libel.

Mic,

So your not doing a class action lawsuit, you just going to keep dodging the question??

We've made our point and now we're waiting for MicBeast's response. I ask that we leave the ad hominem comments out until we hear back. I want to see civil discourse continue but I think we're branching into the territories of getting this thread locked.

Mic,

Time to answer the question, where all waiting............
[Vibrant General] HotShotAzn:
A) Nope, still have my job. Actually at it right now.

B) Nope, nobody pays me to do it.

Sure, I'll give you a straight answer.

MicBeast, you obviously are passionate about your stance on this situation, but you ignore facts. You can not file a lawsuit based on your feelings (which apparently is anger). When the rest of us try to push you for logical answers to your arguments, you use different fallacies to get out of it. And I'm sorry, I have not attacked your character. I attacked your arguments. They are two separate things.

On top of that, you have lied (or mislead) in this thread. Do you or do you not have an attorney on retainer for this CAL?
[Vibrant General] darkfennec:
I just want to say I take everything back that I have said on this thread about this liar.

you JUST STARTED reading this thread right?

either that or you were halfway asleep
[Vibrant General] Agent Jones:
Mic,

I think you are on your way out just like you were from the Tmobile forum.

I really dont get why you had to lie and say you already had an attorney and filed a lawsuit when you clearly didn't.

I guess it got you a boat load of attention with sites like Phandroid picking this up as if it were truth.

This will come back to bite you in the end I am sure. I would hope that Phandroid retracts the article and just as quick as sites posted this they can just as quick retract it.
[Vibrant General] elgo:
So do you or don't you have an attorney on retainer? This is your quote from the first post in this thread:

"I have secured a lawyer, and filed a class action lawsuit

against T-Mobile and Samsung

I explained all my issues with them, and they agree

that I have a very strong case."

Now you claim to still be "working out the details" or some such thing - surely this must be why the lawyer you referred to claims to not have taken your case.
[Vibrant General] HotShotAzn:
Who's attacking who now? And no, I've followed this thread since your first post. I just waiting until I wanted to make my argument.

The facts I'm referring to:

- Do you in fact have an attorney?

- What is your "lawsuit's" course of action if/when Samsung releases 2.2?
[Vibrant General] Agent Jones:
This is probably a rough estimate of the conversation he had with attorney

Mic: "I wanna sue these motherf'ers they are not dope. They aint bringing the goodness and I had to crack my phone like a dope fiend. YO SHOW ME THE MONEY LETS GET CRAZY AND SUE SOME OF THESE BIOTCHES"

Attorney: "WTF?"

CLICK
[Vibrant General] elgo:
He probably added something about how he's not afraid and he needs to stand up for what's right.

Here we are on Martin Luther King day in 2011 and we have a white guy claiming that he is a leader of a movement for "the people," that he is not afraid and that someone needed to take a stand - so why not him?

He then appropriates black culture to complain in "song" about how his rights are being violated because his phone doesn't work. Talk about 'white guy problems!'

I guess we are truly in a post-racial America.
[Vibrant General] Telanis:
Take it from a law student: He has no case (if he's even bringing one). Zero. It might not get thrown straight out but he sure as hell won't win.
[Vibrant General] diego1985:
If he did lie, i wouldnt blame him. Because of a troll like you and your buddy keeps stalking the man. Im actually starting to believe him because of the energy you wasting on him. The man has clearly done anything wrong, but lied according to you. If that is what you are mad at. What would you call Samsung? Or your carrier. You actually sound like you need to be on his side lol.
[Vibrant General] HotShotAzn:
I would, he deceived people under false pretenses.
[Vibrant General] KerryG:
@MicBeast

While I thought you might be a little fringe in your attitude I was still going to support your efforts. However, you lost all credibility with the "God is on my side" comment. I seriously doubt that God cares if I have froyo or not. To bring religion into a business discussion is not applicable or a supportable defense in court. Do you have some documentation such as a FAX or email from God with comments on the matter? Maybe God wants Samsung to delay froyo for some reason. Maybe froyo is the work of the devil and the gingerbread man is a false idol.

You were doing ok right up until this point man. Sorry.
[Vibrant General] Agent Jones:
YA EXACTLY!

We implanted super secret toxins in his water that made him lie.

Oops there was a small unenforceable side effect that made him also paranoid and believe that people were out to kill him.

YA THATS IT RIIIIIIGHT its all o our fault.
[Vibrant General] Jay2487:
And I have learned quite a bit. Ive went from cm6.1 to nero beta3 v1 to v3 to 4 to 4.1 still trying to learn about mods and whatnot, and in the end its funny how it all works because if it wasnt for samsung not updating me to 2.2 and my crappy gps i'd have never even known xda existed lol
[Vibrant General] Agent Jones:
I dont think you are tracking very well here.

I didnt even start commenting until like page 50 ish.

He lied on his opening statement.

My buddy?

While this person you call my buddy may share some of my same opinions I dont know who this person is personally.

I simply sent an email and a day later found out that Mic was lying.

That is stalking him?

His reputation proceeded him.

It's easy to spoof (forging) email. Regular forwarding does not prove anything unless it has full header with the original firm in the domain with matching reverse IP of where came from and maybe matching the whois on the said domain.
[Vibrant General] Agent Jones:
Yes that is a very good point however Ben the lawyer has a direct number as does the firm.

I would be risking alot making all this up when it would so easily be disproved.

What do you think?

Infact PLEASE EMAIL HIM! HE WILL RESPOND TO YOU! OR YOU CAN CALL HIM!

The thing about lawyers is that they respond pretty quick.

So a simple solution would be for you to call him/ em him and PROVE ME WRONG.

You should call him ASAP! I am sure he would want to know that someone is forging emails!!
[Vibrant General] MicBeast:
WOW you finally ADMIT you stalked me ALL THE WAY from the T-Mo Forums

and that your SOLE desire is to get me kicked off of here

Good Luck

are you OK

because the way you keep on persistently threatening me, attacking me

bullying me, and stalking me.

Is starting to make you look like a sociopath hellbent on revenge

I'm Jewish by Blood

How bout I start accusing you of Blood Libel

Since you are accusing me of Lying in writing?

No I wouldn't do that because that is not realistic

I'll just call you what you are

or what your name implies you are

OK

"AGENT"
[Vibrant General] diego1985:
Ill stay out of this, but honestly will people waste their time with someone innitiating the lawsuit. Ok he lied, thank you for bringing this to our attention so we can now question Mic. But this is where im lost, so you brought it to our attention at xda. When will it end, we get it hes "a liar" So shouldnt you ignore it now? I mean you did your part by bringing this to our attention, now you can ignore. This is how threads gets closed IMO
[Vibrant General] Agent Jones:
WOW!!

uuuuh no I didnt follow you from the tmobile forum however I do own a MT4G.

You may remember that within this thread there was another poster who commented about your behavior at the tmo forums.

I have not once flagged any of your posts nor reported you to any mods.

The mods can easily verify that.

YOUR BEHAVIOR

YOURS. YOU CONTROL IT. YOU OWN IT COULD GET YOU BANNED.

Paranoid much?

WTF? Blood libel?
[Vibrant General] HotShotAzn:
Careful, YOU are now treading on libel territory. Agent never one said anything about your heritage/culture/ethnic background. You push that boundary and Agent has a clear cut case for libel. Seriously, where do you get this?

IMO, it's about the fact that Mic hasn't answered the question.
[Vibrant General] MicBeast:
This is exactly what he is trying to acomplish

he admitted he has been in LAW ENFORCEMENT for over 10 years

LOOK AT HIS NAME

IF YOU ARE NOT BLIND THEN YOU SHOULD SEE WHAT I SEE

Agent Jones

He obviously was sent here by T-Mobile Samsung, maybe both

T-Mobile Forums is moderated by T-MOBILE EMPLOYEES

WHO BAN ANYONE WHO MAKES A POST

ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THEY HAVE WITH THEIR DEVICE

ANYONE WHO COMPLAINS FACES THIS SAME TYPE OF ATTACK DOG MENTALITY

THIS ACCUSATORY BEHAVIOR

ANYONE WHO GOES ON THERE AND SAYS

"I HATE MY DEVICE"

THEY WILL GET 500 RESPONSES ABOUT HOW THEY ARE MENTALLY ILL

ETC.

I have been threatened by Moderators for saying my device sucks

They banned me for doing this repeatedly

in the T-Mo forums terms of service it clearly says

that that forums is moderated by T-Mobile Employees

and they have the right to ban anyone who speaks

AGAINST

T-MOBILES BEST INTEREST

Yup at this point he has been called out as the liar he is.

There is no lawsuit he has played XDA for fools as he tried to do at tmobile.

I received directive 2340favre203 to infiltrate XDA and secretly undermine your lawsuit. I actually didnt think that it would be so easy!

I mean an email!

Anyway I may be reprimanded because you blew my cover!

that is messed up man!

I was going to make you a super star rapper!!!

DAMMIT!!!
[Vibrant General] MicBeast:
I will admit Agent you are starting to really piss me off

What is it you are trying to accomplish

give me a straight up answer

or are you just another coward behind a computer screen

after this I have nothing else to say

you are obviously hellbent on trying to destroy my reputation

hellbent on trying to get this thread closed

you are sick in the head, and I will no longer respond to your insanity

get a life.

Well take care everyone.

As a result of my hard work Tmobile is giving me lifetime screen protectors.

I think everything is going to be all right in vibrant land once the vibrant 1.2 (aka vibrant 2) comes out. It looks to be the phone that the vibrant was going to be when it was being first developed before it was stripped of features. And with luck OS's will be mostly compatible.
[Vibrant General] kaine13x7:
I actually don't see this case being that difficult to prove. Since you are suing both T-Mobile and Samsung, and it has been reported that t-mobile is getting frustrated with Samsung delays as it reflects badly upon t-mobile from the consumers. I could see t-mobile spilling some beans.

On your own it would be hard to prove the deceptive practice, but with the lawsuit now you can subpoena internal memos. I'm sure there are also disgruntled employees with access to those as well. If a memo containing the intentions of Samsung to hold the froyo update from current customers in order to try and force those same people to buy another device is quite simply fraud, and from what I have heard t-mobile already has this info. They might file against Samsung to cover themselves.

Good luck
[Vibrant General] xpgroup:
This also applies to the Galaxy Tab. Samsung has been promoting the Tab with phone calling capability. This has been shown in all ad & online video. But all Tabs sold in US are having the phone calling feature removed. This feature is one of the main attraction for most of the Tab buyers. We all feel being cheated by Samsung because we did not find out this fact until we own the Tab. I own both the Vibrant & Tab..... Please count me in...
[Vibrant General] ALUOp:
Even if they release 2.2, I won't use it because the Mobile AP feature will definitely be removed.

I'm happy with the custom ROM that I'm using right now.

But of course, pushing Samsung/T-Mobile to release new Android versions always help ROM developers too.
[Vibrant General] Leafy_duk:
But if they releases 2.2 then our devs get the source code and we'll have really ****ing awesome rom's rather than just good ones.
[Vibrant General] accordex:
Get an intern from their lawyer pool right on it...

a new phone comes out every other week almost...and true they said they will update to froyo...they're late..they most likely will..if they haven't in 2 years from now, then *****...till then, you bought a 2.1 phone, and you have a functioning 2.1 phone as far as warranty agreement is concerned.

You filed a law suit and blasted it all over XDA... A forum centered mainly around Custom/Leaked roms that void your warranty agreement you "actually" signed....no grey area there right?

While I can appreciate the enthusiasm to "do something" in a frustrating situation, I don't see how you can possibly expect to get anything out of this.
[Vibrant General] ALUOp:
Yes, that's why I said pushing them to release new versions helps the developers.

So, if I will definitely join if this lawsuit is real and actually happens.

I think the GPS defect alone could already be a separate lawsuit.
[Vibrant General] cvibe88:
This is hilarious....@op the fact that you think you can just up and sue a company like that.
[Vibrant General] Leafy_duk:
Why not, people have sued mcdonadls for getting them fat and the cigarette company for giving them cancer.
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
I've spoken to a couple atorneys in my family, and they agree there is a strong case for a class action law suit, especially for having released a phone with a non functional GPS for several months before a half-ass fixed was released. THE PHONE WAS CLEARLY ADVERTISED AS HAVING A GPS AT LAUNCH. MANY OF THE ANDROID FETURES DEPEND ON A WORKING GPS, SUCH AS GOOGLE MAPS/NAVIGATION, SEARCH, LAYER BROWSER WHICH SAMSUNG HIHGLY ADVERTISED.

Remember this is not just vibrant owners but captivate, fascinate, galaxy s international.

I'm in, I will join any class action since I don't feel like fighting it myself.

Give me the info please.

Hope other people join too.
[Vibrant General] MicBeast:
HA HA HA How ignorant are you?

first of all the LAW clearly states that

there doesn't have to be any ACTUAL action

All that has to be proven is that Samsung INTENDED to lie to sell this device

similar to the way they INTENDED to fix their TV prices

...

They lost that case...

Now they DID promise us FROYO

Continuously

Time, and Time again

Now there is a question whether or not

there should actually be a HARDWARE recall

for the GPS

as posted on this Sight

now remember I am not committing Libel

because I stated clearly it is in QUESTION

Not an actual statement within a press conference

as is par for course for such a situation

you must remember there are intelligent people in this world

such as myself

I am gifted with an extremely acute mind that functions similarly to a computer

I have memorized almost every post, and article regarding this matter, and have been in the process of RE-collecting this information in their ACTUAL physical form. So that I may present my case.

I have faced adversity, and clear bias towards my decision

I made an oath to myself, to others, and to my country

to selflessly defend myself and my country

to protect it from ALL enemies

Foreign, and Domestic

No matter what; So help me God

I'm a man of my word

Figure out where I'm coming from on that one

OK

now prove us wrong Mr. know it all
[Vibrant General] Julianmgn:
im in to and would like info

[Vibrant General] Leafy_duk:
Sure, just odin back to stock and do a complete wipe of the phone and there'll be no evidence that you voided your warranty. Heck you can take this phone apart and theres no warranty break/peel stickers inside that would show that kind of tampering either.

[Vibrant General] bobbbb:
No offense, but first off all you can't sue Samsung, especially for faulty hardware. There's absolutely no way to prove that and they'll just deny it. Doesn't matter how many of you people say it's faulty it's not going to work.

And for the people willing to participate as in unrooting and wiping their phone...seriously? The Samsung police aren't going to bust down your door and demand to see your phone...
