SamSuck this.x427m

No Comments »

I have this phone, SamSuck model x427m which came with my service -(a flashback and it all reminds me of few months ago how the company try to screw me). There are so many problems that I don’t even know which one to write about or start with. I can summarize it in two words - it SUCKS.

First the Text Messaging is out of control. It always looses connection to the server/satellite or where ever it is NOT connected. When I go to menu, messaging, Text Messages, and write new… a pop-up screen comes up and says “SMS initiating…” and it disappears after few seconds…and that is the end of it. What ever it tries to initiate DOES not work and I have to repeat the same process over again. The only way I have come to find out is: I have to try to connect to the Web thru Buy Media or Media Mail.

The other problem is the “Vibrate and Melody” function does not work. When I am in a loud place or indoors, I like my phone to be in vibrate mode. Aside from that option, there is another option: Vibrate+Melody: which will do both when I receive a call. It doesn’t. It only vibrates no matter which option I choose. This is not the first x427m phone that does this. I had another one which I replace with one I have (which is one of the reasons for exchange) and still have the same issue.

The last (not last -just for sake of writing) problem is the connection. This phone goes off when I enter just about any indoor space. It doesn’t work when I am at work, it doesn’t work when I am at home, and it will not work when I enter any building with two or more stories. The claim that “…I get more bars …” with this service is pure BS and nothing more. With dropping bars come dropped phone calls and so on… but I am not going to talk about that.

I’d like to get another phone which hopefully be better than this, but the contract is for long time and I do not want to spend any more money with this company that I already have with the bill I had presented few months ago. For now I just have to deal with a crappy phone and loose signal.

take many more…

I have taken so many pictures and have not posted them on the site. It has been about four months since I posted the last pictures here. It just took too much time and effort to do so and I was pushing time as it was.

Now it is all writing -if that. Regardless, time and time I will be posting/writing analysis and information about the Internet and everything that is envolved with it. I have written before about eMarketing and emails to where you can obtain free email accounts so you don’t have to deal with the influx of junk email that has taken over the internt.

Keep coming here and keep reading -because you never know what mood I am when I write. The most random and the most important reading of your day could be right here.

As always, I opened the browser to start writing about something, anything. So far nothing has crossed my mind. Now I am on third sentence with out a single word of wisdom. After all, I have been writing for some times now and should have the skills to think of something to write about.

I should be able to write about news, ideas, politics and anything I see on the street or on TV; but I cannot. If you have made it this far and you are reading this part, you are lucky one because I am still puzzled as to how I am incapable of writing a meaningful paragraph about something.

Regardless of all, I am still going to post this on the site and force you to read this. I went back on my blog and check couple of months’ writings to see if I can get an idea to write about. I came across this paragraph from April, “I want to know who these people are buying all the houses around the Valley? The average/median price of a house is around $200 thousands now-a-days -and that is just too much. I cannot even come up with the down payment -buying is the furthest thing in my mind.” I wrote this when the property prices were sky rocketing with no end at sight. I can still say the same exact thing about the whole housing market as I did back in April. The prices are still up and there is no guarantee that they will ever come down. Even though the housing market has cool down and I do see a lot of properties still on the market “for sale”, but the prices still remain the same as it was.

The housing market only benefited few and has caused pain for the rest of the population. It benefited those who had money to invest –buy houses for the purpose of making money – and the rest of us –who wanted to buy a house to live in- are suffering because of it. You can call it capitalism or entrepreneurship, but in this system, the poor always gets it hard.

The object on the wall is quite. He has been hanging there for a while now. I have been seeing him for very long time, same spot. Day after day, the object is still. I can recall when was the first nor can I keep count of many times I see it hanging there, same spot. Day after day, the object is still. I like to think that I may have been tempted few many times to move it. Perhaps across the room, that would be ideal, but yet, same spot. Day after day, the object is still. The color, the shades, the outlines, all of it the same as yesterday and I can guarantee, but cannot predict tomorrow. Tomorrow doesn’t belong to any one, but yet, same spot. Day after day, the object is still.

When I placed an order online with Dell, I realized it was a different item and wanted to cancel it. I contacted customer service through chat online with hours of the order to cancel it. But to no avail. The next day I emailed customer service and also called them, I got the run around about how it is not that department that handles this. So I got the number for Order Modification department and called them to cancel the order, the lady said she did cancel the order but it was never canceled because I received the order. Over all I probably contacted Dell over five or six times for one issue but it was never resolved. Dell talks a lot about customer service in theory, but in practice Dell is worse than McDonalds.
