issues with samsung slider
- Thread starter sjay2
- Start date
My story on my quest for a 4g slider and issues I ran into with the stratisphere since the droid 4 is not out yet and it the only one available probably until feb 2 droid 4 comes true
Got the samsung stratisphere which is quite good except for the following issue and the story I wrote about it behind the expierience and what VZW offered me a deal on the razr as compensation because samsung doesn't seem to have a fix yet.
It seems there are 2 known bugs . The one smydsmith describes in droidforums.net and I recap here.
Issue : The ringer volume going from high to low and another Withe the reverse after previously setting. The ring tone and it starts hapening after you hang up until you set the ringer volume again.
Imagine lowering your volume for a meeting and the next call volume is through the roof
I didn't have that issue but the reverse of the ring tone always going to one above silent.
They are sending me a razr but not the razr max as its was not in the stores yet eveb though they have the display at the stores. The verizon rep said it is reported issue to verizon and they reported it to samsung. I said I was frustrated with the issue and wanted a fix eta or a swap for a new stratisphere. They offered me a refurbished one since it was past ten days but I reminded them I had reported it to them a month ago and after troubleshooting and looking up my past calls over the last month as follow ups they offered me an un happy customer type of deal. With a steep discount off the old razr since the new one was about out.
It seems to be a known issue that has been reported to VZW
but not by many people. I imagine it was a bad batch or a glich or something that is doing it
It just took me about 2 hours to register for these forum and post a reply from my strat since the razr
It seems the the lg aly slides the easiest and the Droid 3 has the best keyboard with the stratisphere as a close second noting as the as the phones get taller and the keyboard gets wider that the keyboards somewhat harder to use and it still the only 4g slider from vzw until feb 2 if the droid 4 is out then which I plan to checkout.
Sent from my SCH-I405 which btw is the stratisphere.
Would vzw make an official anouncement on the droid four please. And make aknown bug list available to the public or lists of possible issues etc.
On the note of vzw service they always end up helping me resolve things but it takes a very long time to troubleshoot over the phone. I miss the days of going into the vzw store having them see the issue and making an expedient fix on the spot.
Thanks vzw from a longtime customer just agravated with cell phone bugs and wish there was an occupy "fix cell phone glitches site" not directed to vzw but a general place to centralize known and reported bug fixes accross manufactures for cell phones to keep the public more informed and to be aware of the options to them.
I happly await the droid razr that was the compromize and will post an update when I get it probably Monday.
