😲 What a shock to learn apple has developed a fake signal for iphone 4's. Instead of making the device actually work, apple instead created a false signal strength app that lies to customers about how their phones are performing! 🤣 When will people realize that big companies don't give a SHlT about the consumer after they walk away from the register? Anyone who knowingly makes another generation of a faulty device, with the same flaws as the first, obviously doesn't give a flying f*%#! 😲 Apple knew the previous iphones had reception problems, but what did they do? They added an aluminum strip around the device to further interfere with signal strength! WTF? DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE? One upset customer was quoted as saying, "T...

“Upon investigation, we were stunned to find that the formula we use to calculate how many bars of signal strength to display is totally wrong.

Did AT&T (or any other global iPhone partner, for that matter) do any in-house field testing with an iPhone at any time in the last 3 years? The fact that they're not doing any outside quality control is scary, especially when they are engineering these devices to operate on networks they don't have any control over.


Well, the answer is none! Apple & At&t found each other becuase BOTH are companies who don't care about ANYTHING except for making th...

In my area, ATT service is pretty much on par with the other 3 major carriers, but I find it disturbing that the company's halo model is having so many issues with functions that are basic to a cell PHONE. What I find even more disturbing is that with all of these issues being so well documented in public media, there are so many people willing to purchase said device.
