That's what I wanted to do to my eris when I had it. Piece of crap phone!
lol Moto Droid fanboys make me lol.
Moto Droid? It's an HTC phone, not Motorola.
Maybe it was just the "Peice of crap" using it?...Droid Eris is a great phone!
haha yea I think it is a great phone too
Strange I didn't see him insult you? That was uncalled for? Are you that bitter that you will defend a phone while insulting someone you don't even know?
Thats how people act in these front page topics. Nobody here has any class when they feel threatened because somebody dislikes the phone they like. Its really childish and lame.
Also stuff like this is why I don't trust holsters. My pocket hasn't failed in me in 9 years of cell phone ownership. The only damage to them has been true hardware failure that was impossible to prevent.
I didn't "insult" anyone, just merely asked a question, then stated a fact.
You called that person " a Piece of crap " sounds like an insult to me . childish behavoir , I think we should all be past this by now ?? Yes its a good phone as are MOST all Android phones , simple as that , but maybe his was a piece of crap , I have bought crappy defective phones before
yea but were those crappy defective phones Android?
Yes they were !! Had a CRAP HTC Hero that had to be sent back for replacement and a Samsung Moment , Now I have the Nexus One and so far so good !!

Regardless of how good the phone is--it hurts to see a smartphone all bashed up like that. It also hurts to see members of a community bashing each other for no reason at all.
Ok ok, so maybe I got a little butt-hurt when he called my phone a piece of crap and so I stepped over the line a bit. Sorry bro, I'm having a rough day. My car has a blowout on the same damn back tire that I just replaced 2 weeks ago and it's 40 degrees and it's been raining outside all day. Not to mention my spare needs air and I have no cash on me.
must be a slow news day if stuff from the forums is making it to the front page.
My Motorola Droid just busted last night. Was waiting on a bus on campus. Had just checked trans-loc on my phone to see why it wasn't there yet. The trans-loc site wasn't working either. How I hate these buses!!! Looked up and there was the bus. Tried to put my phone away quickly to catch the bus (which bypassed me anyhow, in spite of the driver looking right at me, how I hate these buses!) and I dropped it. A drop from waist level (<3') the entire screen cracked! I've dropped every phone I've ever had with only a minor scratch a time or two. That the entire screen cracked is disappointing. Don't they drop-test these phones? Now I've got to pay a deductible and wait until FedEx runs on Monday to get a new one...
Group Hug...
Yeah, nevermind. Everyday this place sounds more and more like precentral (which is bad). Just a bunch of rude, and immature fanboys. Just let it be, I don't think any of the Android phone are "crap" after what I had endured over there.
Wow, seriously guys do you have ANY life, talk about gay sentimentality sheesh
Haha, Transloc sucks. Too bad you dont have Nextbus at your school.
your kinda dumb I have seen the same crap on both sites I have a pre and a hero and love them both have had no probs with the pre hade to exchange the hero because of dust in the screen... Precentral and androidcentral are for the most part same... GROW UP
Exactly my point, I didn't call anyone any names, you're just immature.
If you want another service that tracks the buses in your area you should def ask your local bus company to check out www.blirpit.com
I'm glad I got a case and screen protector for mine for my birthday. Can't imagine how upset I'd be if something like this happened. But yeah, Step 1 of phone care is not taking it on a trampoline, while you skydive, bungie jump, etc. XD
