Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Verizon / March 2006LG Software in ALL Verizon Phones? WTF!!
I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. WTF? If I wanted an LG I would have bought an LG. I buy Samsung because I like the user friendliness and functionality of their software. When I inquired I was told that LG software now comes on ALL Verizon phones. No matter if you like the software or not, it's CRAPPY that they are taking yet another choice away from us. > I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. WTF?

All of Verizon's phones now come with the same, identical LG software. Verizon now calls it "Verizon software" but it's LG. Anyone who has owned an LG phone made in the last two years will recognize it. >> I can't believe that a Motorola phone will come with LG >> software. Just won't happen.

Underlying code is per manufacturer. -Quick Does the Motorola V325 have this new user interface? > You have 15 days to take it back Thank you for a completely useless and worthless response. >> You have 15 days to take it back > >Thank you for a completely useless and worthless response. Hardly useless...if you don't like what you purchased take it back...simple as that! Pegleg U.S. Navy Retired Support Our Troops, Question The Policy!

If you don't like it and it is "crappy" return it and move on troll. >I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. WTF? If >I wanted an LG I would have bought an LG.

Most all cell phone software is written in a backroom in Bangalore by the same bunch of subcontractors anyway;-) >WTF? It's to unify tech support. They can't effectively support the entire line if every phone comes with different software. A_C >>WTF? > > It's to unify tech support.

I wish there was direct access to the pictures area through some menu item. It is, after all, a CAMERA phone. Other than that, the software is good. -Dave > I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. It's actually not LG software, it's the new GUI VZW will be putting on all their new phones. They just started with the LG8100, that's all. > > I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. > > It's actually not LG software, it's the new GUI VZW will be putting on all > their new phones. > > They just started with the LG8100, that's all. What, if anything, can one do to load mfg stuff? Lou If it all started with the LG VX8100, does that mean that all Verizon phones (with the new UI) have that annoying "missed call" siren........even on silent (restricted if you so choose) calls? Incidentally, anyone with an 8100......did that missed call alert get corrected with a software update? I had that phone for about 2 days and couldn't stand that feature and, at the time, there was no way of turning it off. Thanks. >> > I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Lou >> I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. > > It's actually not LG software, it's the new GUI VZW will be putting on all > their new phones. > > They just started with the LG8100, that's all. You may be right about that. I still wish I could have the Samsung GUI. I liked it much better. >>> On Sun, 26 Mar 2006 18:32:56 -0600, Joseph Welch wrote: >>> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >news:LrudnS6_G-4H5bTZRVn-sw@comcast.com... You may be right about that. I >still wish I could have the Samsung GUI. I liked it much better. AFAIK, Cingular phones are the same way. Same icon set on all phones. Makes it easier on the techs when it comes to solving issues. As to the VZW UI. There is that and then an UNDERLYING firmware individual to each series and model.  SignatureAndrew D.

The LG8000 had the same interface. I like it. Joseph Welch sez... > I was stunned when my new Samsung A970 showed up with LG software. Who cares? The a970 is a kick'n phone! No cell phone on sale for VW has battery performance equal to the a970. What I want to know is about the signal, since the antenna is completely inside the shell. ______/|\______ ---===fish===--- |
