YOUR BATTERY IS EMPTY

Saturday, 24 October 2009 08:28

You know what pisses me really off?

A mobile phone with such a crappy, intrusive, annoying and energy wasting firmware like the one in the Samsung X820.

I am talking about the useless "Your battery is empty" notification.

My phone is set to vibrate in 99.9% of the time cause I don't want it to be a pain in my neck.
(Despite the fact, that the "vibrator" is way to intense and loud it is still better than any sound)

But what happens when your battery starts to loose power?
No, the phone does not silently die, it vibrates for 1 3 second every ~10 5 minutes for 2 hours!
It could run a few hours longer, if it wouldn't try to tell me it is "empty", which it obviously is not, in the described way!

I guess you can imaging many circumstances where this "FEATURE" is more, much more annoying than a dead phone!

Is it so hard to give the user control over it's phone and let him choose on which events he will be notified?
I guess not.

So if any mobile-phone-fimware-developer is reading that:

PLEASE GIVE THE USER THE POSSIBILITY TO CONTROL ALL "NOTIFICATIONS"
