Let's Get This Straight...
I'm not coorse on my mobile phones... I don't leave them in the pocket of my jeans and subject them to a boil wash... I don't drop them 6 storeys off scaffolding...
SO WHY THE FUCK CAN'T I GET ONE THAT WORKS FOR LONGER THAN A COUPLE OF MONTHS!?
Yesterday, my new (3 months old today) Samsung U600 suddenly "lost" all the words I had taught the predictive text dictionary (Hungarian, and foul language), and wouldn't re-learn them again.
This morning, I got a text from Lord O., and I managed to reply to it... but, when he texted back, and ever since, I've not been able to text - every time I start to type a message, I get one word entered, then when I press the space key, nothing happens... then, after a few seconds, the display goes like the phone's switching itself off, and then comes "back on" again, back to the main screen, and takes a minute to "initialise" - but exactly the same thing happens if you go back and try to type a message again. And while it's "frozen", closing the slide makes no difference - and when you open it again, it does its "power down" thing.
I have noticed a couple of times since I bought it that suddenly an "egg timer" would appear on the display when you were navigating the menus, and it would say something like "Please Wait"... but then it worked fine again.
So, for the moment, I'm back to my D500, and tomorrow the U600 goes back to the shop to be sent for repair!
I HATE FUCKING MOBILE PHONES!
