Re: Not receiving texts from Verizon carriers!

That you know of. had a buddy on verizon with a s21 ultra that didn't know he was missing messages for months on google messages. he was in denial until he missed a text about his wife going into labor that he got 17 hours later. but the argument of "i can drive well drunk so why can't i?" is really convincing though.7Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: How to return to previous software update?

The major updates are pushed by the manufacturer of the device after T-Mobile has approved them but minor updates don't need any approval. I literally kept my s23 Ultra on November 2023's firmware until almost the end of January when I finally device I didn't think rooting it was worth it and updated the device to current, patching the bootloader unlock exploit. Tmobile makes many changes to the OS before pushing out it's version to users. They often remove features like the ability to chance from 5g to 4g. That braindead change has me staying on july 2023 forever. tmobile has AWFUL 5g technology so sometimes you need to switch the 4g again. removing that feature was just them trying to make you upgrade your phone. not to mention the constant bugs in every security patch on the tmobile firmware that you can't do anything about. those bugs never get fixed in later updates.4Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Not receiving texts from Verizon carriers!
if you used any android device that’s released int he last 2 years then google messages was preinstalled and the default SMS handler. it also causes issues with SMS between ios and android that is solved immediately when deactivating Google messages.7Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Not receiving texts from Verizon carriers!
this is 100% caused by Google Messages. It's been a problem for years now. google messages has always outright missed texts due to awful RCS implementation. use a different SMS handler. the second we switched back to samsung messages it stopped entirely for good.4Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Phone Suddenly Drops Service unless on Wi-fi! -S22 Ultra
it’s planned obsolesce 100% this happened the day i unlocked my paid off s22ultra. it was via a forced android security patch update. then a month later my wife’s s22ultra had the EXACT SAME THING happen the EXACT SAME DAY she unlocked her device after paying it off. a force tmobile update came through and ultimately bricked the second s22ultra in 2 months. this is a scam no doubt.10Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: How to return to previous software update?
here's the neat part, you can't. Tmobile pushes there mandatory monthly updates and NEVER tests them out. You're forced to do the OS update and you're just shafted if there's bugs (every single android security patch breaks something)4Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Bias to existing customers

AT&T's main feature for the past 4 years is that both current customers and new customers get the exact same deals/ Current customers do no need to change plans to get the deals either. i get that all the carriers are schemers but this question was incredibly easy to answer.0Visto0likes0Comentarios
