What kind of phone do you have? What wireless service? What modifications have you made to it? How often do you rage out and throw it through a brick wall? All are valid things to post. Let's hear them.
I just recently got a Samsung Charge on Verizon. It seems like a good phone, 4G with a 4.3in screen and 32gb preinstalled SD card. Rooted it on the first day, though what didn't show up in my pre-purchase research is that apparently this phone isn't the easiest to work with for those sort of things. Spent about 3 hours in brick, but finally got it fixed up. Now it works (relatively) wonderfully, and is running a currently unreleased firmware.
Upgraded from an R2D2 edition Droid 2, rooted. It was a fairly amazing phone, but the screen started melting and the keyboard was going out so it was time for an upgrade.
Three or four phones ago, I used to rage against my phone when something else got me angry. But that was back before my smartphone era when the phones I had were cheap and flippy.

First phone was a shitty LG Chocolate Flip which lasted me three painful years, second phone is a Blackberry Curve 8530 which I've had for a year. Although it doesnt have all the bells and whistles the latest phones have, I still quite enjoy it

Although it doesnt have all the bells and whistles the latest phones have, I still quite enjoy it The Flip Chocolate was my second phone, though I never really thought of it as shit. Probably because I was upgrading from an old solid-block two-color screen phone at the time. And for Blackberry phones, I never really noticed a difference between them. They all seem to have the same layout and menu styles and options, no matter what. Just occasionally get a bit faster |

I have a LG Cosmos 2 with Verizon. I barely ever use my cell phone.  |

Just occasionally get a bit faster The phone itself wasnt really that shitty, it was just my service with the phone. The phone had one problem, and that was that it opened the internet every time I opened the phone. I asked to get it replaced and Telus(my provider) said I couldnt and that there was nothing wrong with it. So I asked if they could disable my internet, and they said no to that too. I went into the same Telus every month until two years later (6 months prior to my contract end) I go into another Telus in the same mall demanding they turned off my internet to which they responded with something along the lines of: "I dont know why you are so angry, we could have turned off your internet at anytime. All you have to do is ask..." I was furious. After paying $200 phone bills for two and a half years, they simply said "All you had to do is ask, bro". All I could have done is gone to the other Telus the whole time... Needless to say after explaining my story, they treat me like royalty now. Seriously, I got my phone for free (minus activation fees). Instead of paying something like $1800 in phone bills for three years, it ended up being something like $7200. |

Sounds like the Colinizer needs anger management. Don't you hate cell phone companies though? They always try to con you these days. Well, all companies do that now. |
