Mst evil phone ever..

ade2005 · 09-04-2007, 16:46

I have recently ditched the worst phone I have ever had the misfortune to see let alone own.

The LG U400,,

Its evil hard to use about as useful as a cue of dole dossers, and it was on the 3 network aswell, they are perfetic I could not begin to exsplain how bad a combination that was.

Thankfully I now have a Samsung D900 on Orange, and very happy with it.

What's the worst phone and or network you have ever had?

Agreed.

My g/f had this piece of shit for about 3 months on 3 till she called and went nuts at them after having it repaired 4 times and a new one sent out which was DOA lol

She is now happy with her Nokia n73 on 3

Really? I haven't had a single problem with my 6280 yet it works perfectly. But mines not on 3 so maybe thats why.

Worst phone was probably NEC E313 on 3 back in the day when 3pay first started. The battery life was a joke and the amount it crashed was unbelievable.

Curse the day I bought the Benq Siemens mia, worst phone in the universe. Ditched it after 5 days.

mines not on three either mines on O2 but i dont even think its got to do with the network it just constantly resets itself, freezes, randomly starts vibrating and wont stop, not to mention the gathering storm of dust underneath the screen

Mine was SIM free and unbranded so maybe thats something to do with it. Or maybe I got the only working one ever made lol. You can take the screen off and clean it. Heres a link to a video that shows you how:

Having your phone on vibrate makes dust go behind the screen. That's why I never use the vibrate function on my phones. IT buzzes through the phone and loosens all the dust particles which then get in the screen.

Don't touch the screen whatever you do or you'll end up with streaks on it

10-04-2007, 15:07

You're not having much luck with this phone are you?

You need to use a brush or something like the person in the video. Have you not got a spare (very soft) toothbrush? Small paintbrush? Anything that's soft? I suppose you could fold some tissue paper into a flat square and use that gently.

Remember it doesn't just clip on, you have to slide the bottom over the screen then clip the top in place.

No probs its a free forum and if it's help, why not let it go in another direction.

incidentally I had the nightmare of cancelling my 3 contract today.

They wanted to know why, I should have told them the truth...because your service is S**t.

10-04-2007, 17:35

Lol are they really that bad? I thought they had improved over the years? I've not been with 3 for a few years myself but people have said they have got better.

ade2005 · 10-04-2007, 22:19

No they haven't got better they suck out loud.

I just said I wanted to cancel my contact, they begged me to stay offering this and that, but I just said no, I would have to be paid a large amount of money and be offered a night of passion with Girls aloud, before I would even think of going with 3 agian.

chris20 · 11-04-2007, 08:50
