For anyone interested it's a good read. Galaxy S users are pressuring Samsung USA on virtually every post Samsung has made on the lack of the 2.2 update. I doubt it will have any affect but it does shed light on the plight of the Galaxy S owners and with hundreds being posted somebody will respond sooner or later somewhere whether Samsung or AT&T.
Haha, I especially enjoyed this comment:
I was going to check it out on my Captivate, but it's turned itself off again. Maybe when it gets through rebooting.

Good thing the GPS doesn't really work, or people would be showing up at their headquarters!

Might help raise awareness of the issue
We are the 3% of the Captivate phone owner population that realized we are getting screwed, but the other 97% might never know of the update situation and are completely unaware that an update could potentially fix a lot of their problems
Did they close/delete the post? Your link is not taking me to it. I WANT to give my two cents too.

It's the principle of the thing, you know? Support your products, Samsung. We aren't going to buy new products just to get an open source upgrade. Thank God for xda...

Seriously? And you did this why?
Because the promise of the update has been a scam so far...and they're unwilling to answer inquiries directly.

Well at worst case all that would accomplish is getting their FB page shutdown (highly improbable) and close a source for the public to get informed.
looks like they turned off posting to their wall

You just need to "like" the page first to write comments. Just remember to delete the fact that you liked it on your profile page
I left some friendly () comments of my own
Just be sure to be a little nice about it but make the point that we need/want what was promised. no need to go over the top.
I am going to check it daily and post something on every new topic i see. I request that others do it also, aiming to just get some sort of info from them about the situation.
Haha I've been one of the people posting over at Samsung USA for the last few weeks. I try to go ever there and post a comment or an article every so often. It's been good to see more and more people doing the same. Don't know if it'll do any good or not, but at least it's cathartic and it spreads the word. Glad to see some people have taken notice.
If the word gets out, it will do damage to brand reputation. And everything is about advertising.

I just started today. I'll make it a daily visit/post in my Facebook travels.

Class action lawsuit filed and in motion for the vibrant. very much worth looking into and seeing if us Captivate owners can get in on it as its basically the same device.
They also have a samsungusa youtube account to leave comments on
From a phone
Apparently LG banned me from their twitter,facebook and forums.
apparently they dont like when people point out their lies and continued stringing along of consumers.
I know the mods of their forum come here since they mentioned it.
so i want them to know they are pathetic. you dont even get a message you just cant log in anymore. on facebook if im not logged in the comment tag is there when i log in the coment tag disapears.
so apparetnly LG's fix for the G2x is to ban and silent those that are consistant in wanting answers. or repeating the truth of how they led on customers with the update to make them go over their 2 weeks(think this may of been the one that got them )
i did get one last comment in under the name droid1967 which was a link to the tmo news about an update so at least the people reading those forums got 1 piece of info this month that appears to be some actual information.
You better be nice. We'll ban your sorry whining butt from here too. How dare you ask for a phone that works. LOL
I better be careful myself. I've been pretty dogged in my dogging of the dogs as well. Did I actually just type that?
Did they communicate to you the fact that you were out?
I just made a post there saying I better be careful, I might get banned ....like you. It posted, so I haven't crossed their line. Yet.
nope

nothing they ip banned me too
i got that droid1967 one in than it wont log in again either.
I think you have been worse than me
I think it was the once tehy con enough to go over their 2 weeks than the update will just disapear.
smartphonegeek is the one that banned me im sure i see he posted right under that comment than i was banned within 15 minutes of his posting.
No biggy. those guys over there know nothing and are just the cooperate liers for their phone division. i hear that san diego trip was a class to better use 1000 words without actually giving any info. since they failed with the by summer they were suppose to leave it at the by summer instead of hinting it actaully meant by summer so he had to go to a retraining course.
and that title i always thought the GEEK meant you actaully knew something about what it was associated with.
I think maybe i should not of used the same nick to post at the forum,twitter and facebook think gettting hit on all three may of got to them
well keep giving them hell for me
I figured both of you guys were gonna get banned at some point, but I didn't know they would ban you from all their sites . I feel bad that those two mods are the only LG/T-Mo folks on the entire internet bearing the brunt of the attacks (though they are well deserved). Their company pretty much threw them to the wolves with no information at all for the public. The silence from LG has irreparably tarnished their image in my eyes and ensured that I'll never purchase another of their products. The G2x is fantastic though, once you get CM7 on it.
dont feel bad eagle, ive been banned from tmobile g2x forum twice....both times heading out as the number 1 kudos'd author....some people liked what i had to say.....apparently not tmobile....haha
"I think you have been worse than me"...."I figured both of you guys were gonna get banned at some point,....."
Awww, c'mon you guys, I'm not that bad. Am I? LOL.
Honestly, you should see the things I type that I don't actually send ha ha! I think I'm fair in my complaints though.
hah

yeah i saw someone asking about you i didnt see any of your posts.
im 3rd on the kudos i think but also pushing there. but at least they are adults not kids like lG saying dont play in our sandbox.
Im surprised you got banned from there but i dont know what you said
i have 2 other ip's i can access from and emails are a dime a minute. so ill monitor and ill get back there to tell them what i really think of them, since i didnt really before , we were just alll showing we are fed up hoping something would happen. but I guess LG's way of fixing things with customers is quieting the knowledable ones so the less knowledagble will fall for their bs.
They think i said something bad before. they havent seen anything yet. i will gather everyone of their lies and dates and show how they do indeed string their customers along. I will go through for everyphone they have and will send these examples to every blog and website just before i post it on their site.
im actaully surprised smartphonepissant could even figure out how to ban me. he must of called up someone that actully knows something.
yeah

yeah wish i would of hit the send button instead of delete now.
just wait for my final post it will be a good one. but ill have to do some research first. If dumbphonewimpass wants a war hell get one.
wish i could ban some family members i have to deal with for my patients. but guess what i deal with and most of the time its not even justified. as it is with LG.
not my fault they are the ones that get paid to lie and mislead but they know what they are doing and to have the nerve to ban someone that never used a curse word or actually called them out directly is just sad and pathetic.(ok maybe i did call their lack of knowledge out )
if there were people that were upset with what i said that would be 1 thing. but i think since 98% agreed and made similair comments its just laughable what a piece of @#$% company. LG --Like Gnats (just a pest we have to live with.)
If all they did was IP block you, pm me
I have an IP rerouting software that will have them thinking you
Move all around the globe at lightning fast speed.
And unless they block the usernar you can keep giving them hell under the droid1967 call sign.

T-mobile blocked me from posting comments on their Facebook page. I was hammering them down looking for answers of why they called me at 6am. T-mobile refuses to accept they made a mistake and acknowledge it, instead they choose to shut you up

They just posted a reply that says you were not banned........

This website has deals on it that seem slightly too good to be true. But it looks legit.
I've tried researching the site using google but nothing of worth is coming up. What do you guys think?

The old saying about if it looks too good to be true, it usually is.
It comes to mind here.
Just looking at the tablet section, seems like a lot of cheap knockoffs.
Its a scam for sure
most likely a scam

I don't know whether it is a scam. but seen from its site information, items details and descrption, payment methods, etc,it seems not professional at least.

These ads always bug me because of the person taking advantage of freely available information that someone may not be aware of.
http://baltimore.craigslist.org/mod/4773057159.html
That guy is advertising rooting services and unlock services at outrageous prices, trying to take advantage of people who may not know the methods are freely, and most of the time incredibly easy to do. I already blasted this guy in a response to his e-mail, and in the past a mass flooding of responses tends to get these ads taken down. If anyone wants to blast the guy too, I have posted the link above to his craigslist ad.

I am not sure that getting the ad taken down will do a huge amount. All he will do is post another ad. You can never get rid of these types of trolls. Just stay clear.

I suggest one craiglist ads posting guy his Skype: ddonvonn .When I need to post ads on craigslist they guy work great and provide phone verified accounts for craigslist. You can buy verified accounts from them and can post a lot of a on CL. :good:
I'm glad that this bothers someone else. I cringe whenever I see these ads on Craigslist. Some I've seen charge upwards of $30 bucks for rooting and that doesn't even include unlocking! Also, who knows if the methods they use are safe and what they do with their “customer's" data... To make money was never the intention of we as a community do. This is just taking advantage of unknowing people who might of heard a coworker mention something about rooting. Any time I've “serviced" a friend or coworkers phone, I do not take payments. I got the resources for free.

Holy S**T $100 FOR ROOTING?!!! What the hell?! Not to mention this guys says he can “...convert any Android phone to 5.0." What the hell?! This guy is messed up...
A part of me would be "outraged", but the other part of me would say that any idiot that's dumb enough to get taken by people like this deserves it. A fool and his money, a sucker every minute, etc. Anybody who looks for "services" on cragislist knows it's shady as sh!t.

Hey,
I am posting on my note 5 from work. I just got an announcement to inform customers who call about samsung pay to inform them to check play store, if it is not available say to try android pay. And if a customer calls about a samsung pay problem give them the support number for Samsung pay, after checking for an Ota update.
If a customer calls angry about not having samsung pay I am supposed to apologize and direct you to the play store.
I will be uploading a picture of the announcement when I get home.

Is this okay to quote you and link to this thread? I'm thinking about making a blog post about this. I just didn't want to get you in trouble with your boss
Thanks so much for giving us access to this info!
What about this?
Yeah, but their website also continued to say that the non-fast wireless charger worked with the note5 and s6e+. I think their website is a bit slow, especially at tweaking a more nuanced detail.
It is coming, maybe? How did this solve anything? Lol
