good luck EVER getting an Apple on Sprint.

Since we have established numerous times that at least 90% of your problems are due to your failure to understand how to properly use your phone, I find myself highly unsurprised that you continue to have the same problems with replacement phone after replacement phone.

I would posit that you will have the same problems with a phone on Sprint, since most of your issues appear to issues with the underlying Android OS.

Maybe you should look into the Kin?

Fix your camera issue: UNINSTALL USTREAM. Reinstall, and the issue should be fixed.

And as mupi said, considering most of your issues are user created, switching devices will NOT solve your problems.

First of all, most people don't have those problems.

I have had my Droid for quite a while. I use WiFi a lot, bluetooth quite a bit, never had a problem with dropping wifi or bluetooth. Of course, I don't have a gazillion devices using those frequencies laying around my house, including multiple sets of bluetooth speakers, wireless game controllers, RF remotes, WiFi devices, cordless phones, and who knows what all else communicates via 2.4Ghz.

You knew, or should have known about the unlock screen and keypad before you even bought the phone. The unlock screen is remarkably similar to the iphone's unlock screen, so if you have a problem with that, maybe the iphone is too sophisticated for you. Which reminds me of today's Help Desk.

The thing is, is that MOST of the issues you're making up seem exclusive to you, and are happening on EVERY handset you touch.

If it was a widespread issue (software or hardware) then MORE PEOPLE THAN JUST YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS would have the issues. but they don't. in fact, your issues appear to be unique.

So maybe you got a bad handset, but ALL your handsets are giving you the same issue, across at least three different revisions of the software.


So if it's not an issue unique to one handset, but DOES appear to be unique to you and your buddies, than it is something with YOU, not the device or software.

I don't think a quote from "anonymous" sources counts as "announced". Not saying it isn't gonna happen; I think it will, eventually at least. time will tell if this is just another rumor, I guess...
