We also receive the full Amazon Suite? My app drawer is already jammed with useless apps that I can't uninstall.

The bloatware is meant to be, natural, and simple to be ignored. It seems to have no impact on my use of my S3

Otacon, buy a Nexus device and get straight up Google with no bloatware.

Today Verizon Wireless has confirmed that Motorola Droid Razr HD and Droid Razr Maxx HD users will be offered the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update, after every other carrier (major and minor) has already delivered it to their customers, and long after the phones stop being relevant [see Thunderbolt & SGS3].


Fixed.

I own both a Thunderbolt & a SGS3. I don't know what VZWs problem is, but they simply can't push out a major update, while small carriers like US Cellular seem to get it done right away. FFS, google did all the work, how long does it really take for you to bloat it all up?

If it weren't for XDA, VZW customers would never run "current" software.

Hold on, I thought you were an isheep, why do you complain so much about android then if you have an S3, or is it WP the one you don't like?

I just got an S3 from MetroPCS, but the thing doesn't want to update the ICS to JB.

Cognitive dissonance is great. It has me still believing that my 4S is slick LOL

Ha, that's why its not so good to make unfounded inferences or assumptions. 😛 ...but yes, it's WP that I believe has no reason to exist.

Most bloatware can be disabled through settings, go to apps, then all, then click on the app, and press disable, if the button isnt there to disable, uninstall updates and then try again, I have about 20 built in apps disabled

Nah, he's just trolling around on a device he's never going to get and keep ignoring the simple fact you just stated. It's easier that way.

When he posts articles about Apple-related, you and other haters whine like a little beech and bash him like nobody business.

And now when he posts about Android-related, you asks whats happening to him.

WTF that you kiddies want??

What? Not the Droid Razr? They are essentially the same as the Droid Razr Maxx aren't they? Or do we, the early adopters, get hosed again?

Welcome to Android, where 99% of these tiny incremental updates don't apply to you! Have fun getting some custom ROMs or whatever other waste of time someone will suggest after this comment.

You're lucky you got ICS.
