SamSuck this.x427m
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.
