Seriously Android?!?! I have the Droid RAZR Maxx HD (which really has nothing to do with the operating system, I was just informed that I should post what device I have in order to post this on the correct forum). The new "upgrade" SUCKS! Worst OS so far by far. I have a great idea, lets take the things that make sense to the average practical user...swype, low battery usage, keyboard arrow keys, being able to do a newline in the text message instead of a built in smiley face key, set the sound easily and it STAY at that LOUD sound, ability to turn off sound without having to type in the password to unlock the phone, ability to turn off alarm clock with a button press and not the screen swipe, THE OLD AND PERFECT GOOGLE EFFING MAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE MAPS THAT WORKED LIKE A CHARM AND HAD PERFECT NAVIGATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE MAPS THAT ACTUALLY WORKED AND DIDNT TAKE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!...and get rid of them! And for what?!?! So you can see the album cover of the band that is currently playing on your phone? Not saying that isnt a cool or good idea, just saying there are WAY more important and USEFUL things to do with an update than that. Why cant an update be an update, that is, leave the things the way they are and add to it? What ever happened to the "If it aint broke, DONT FIX IT" mentality? I understand updates are important. You dont want to just sit there with your product and do nothing. But that doesnt mean you need to get rid of key functionality and limit the phone's ability to be elite!
This new update makes me either want to punch babies or go to IOS!!! And I HATE Apple with a passion. Here is some code to demonstrate what I am talking about. Please paste this into a c++ Main.cpp and compile and run with the argument of "TRUE" if you received the new update and "FALSE" if you did not receive the new update to see what im talking about:
