Everything Android

[phoenix31tt]

yea the first thing i do when i get it is to check for updates...

i know i have one to run, but that is a fairly new one released this month or something...

everything is vanilla.... typical apps installed... no significant settings tweaks... default wallpaper everyhing... so idk

the common demonitor accross all the android devices i've used doh... is they have an exchange mail account configured....

i wonder if that's what causes the mail app to crash so much with us...

do you have exchange mail configured?

[LQDSNK]

That's strange, i haven't encountered any of those problems with my tablet. Very stable, Asus Transformer Prime.

Good point out though, definitely don't have Exchange hooked up to that only Gmail and Hotmail.

Once it froze while browsing a site, but that's because the site was horrible, it also crashed my browser on my desktop twice.

Yea thinking bout it every android device i've used, had an exchange account configured.

I revise that statement, maybe aout 70% of all i've used.

I do not use exchange mail.

well i dont really use the exchange on my tab... as its easier when im mobiel to respond from phone... so i will remove that exchange config and see if that changes anything

I feel Digicel buying seconds for the third world market. I never experience that kinna crashing on a tablet...

Even self, remember that Samsung tablets run touchwiz which includes Samsung made apps for Exchange email handling. For the best tablet experience you need a Nexus device, pure google goodness.

For me, same applies to phones.

Well I can't rush to Android's defense here. Definitely had more crashes on my droid than all of my previous phones combined.

I never knew a "keyboard" could crash. lol

Still love droid. It is a techie's dream but definitely not something I'd feel comfortable putting in the hands of the CEO of a Fortune 500 company just yet.

Feels like Windows 98 all over again. And this with a Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Stock, pure unadulterated.

^^ See what i mean, cyah expect me to use that thing on a day-to-day business, id be getting too pissed.
Fire bun android oui, at least until they get those stability and fluidity issues right.

[rassmatic]

I for one still wouldn't condemn the OS like you did MessiaaH. OK, it has some serious issues with exchange accounts and the overall stability isn't on par with iOS, but the positives of the operating system out ways the negatives by far IMO. Definitely won't call it a 'mess' OS.

It seems like everyone's experiences differ from device to device cause I for one haven't had any major problems or crashes since getting my S3. But then again, I haven't had it too long.

[MessiaaH]

There are certain things that outweight the negatives in technology. For instance, the fluidity, stability, and strong MS and Facebook integration and the workflow of wp8 far outweighs they lack of apps for and customization for me.

But i simply cannot use a product that does not work, it could be how epic it want, if shit crashing and d device has stability issues i simply cannot rely on it for my daily driver. Is like the IOS Maps fiasco, men could not rely on it at all. I like things to be stable and working, d crashing scene not me. I had enough of those days in Me, and Vista.

If i drag out my phone to responde to a crtical email, i expect it to be sent imedately, and not looking to see if d app crash, or if d mail really send, etc etc.

For my use case, android is a hot pack of mess, until they get it stable, and fluid.

Stability and Speed, is that too much to ask for? all d brilliant minds behind android cant get that simple thing right? For all d epic sauce that is android man cant just make d thing properly? D vickey vai jerry rig thing is what cuase anrdoid to be how it is, and now they have to spend years trying to fix it.

From day 1 WP and IOS was stable.

*yawn* One man's madman rant...doesn't make it so.

I wonder what would happen if I were to make similar statements about Windows 8 in that thread?  :/


Carry on.

[MessiaaH]

Fix up, all windows 8 issues has been discussed in the windows 8 thread, but say what u want about it, it rock stable. and FAST!

[TriniXaeno]

Well we can't just wipe Android's issues below the rug.

I remember a time the kids were doing something cute, pulled out my phone to snap it....boom, "Sorry, Camera has crashed"

Got the message about three times. Had to reboot the phone and by that time, the moment was gone.

Hopefully Android 5 will lay these issues to rest.

[MessiaaH]

Wyatt, one man's rant doesnt make it so, u not reading d thread ah wah? lol.

The only good android is Data from Star Trek.

[rassmatic]

*sigh* To each his own I suppose.

Haven't fallen asleep while watching a video about Android yet though. Can't say the same about the Windows phones. :S

[TriniXaeno]

Wyatt, one man's rant doesnt make it so, u not reading d thread ah wah? lol.

huh? I don't follow. What do you mean?

[rassmatic]

*yawn* One man's madman rant...doesn't make it so.

[TriniXaeno]

That's what Arc said. Not me, so I am still lost.

Unless Messiaah meant to address the comment to arc and not wyatt.

[MessiaaH]

I was being sarcastic to arc's statement seeing that you also experience dese issues with android.
So i is only man have issues with Droid nah lol, they don't really exist otherwise. <-more sacasim lol. It was funny to see a man using one of d very devices recommended getting d same exact problems, so yea just some sarcasm lol, doh pay it no mind.

[woodyear99]

Happy with my experience. Not getting issues like that on my note 2 either.
