Smartphones and Non Smartphone people

Is it just me or does it make you mad when you see someone with a $500 Smartphone and just use it for things like Facebook. I know this guy who has a Captivate and only uses it for facebook and nothing else. I asked him to look at his phone and he hadn't even updated the software to 2.2. Wth!!! He was like oh its no big deal. Another girl I know has the Mytouch 4g and has no clue what her phone can do cause its all about facebook. Rrrrrrr that just makes me so mad to see a awesome piece of technology go to waste just cause they want to look cool with a Smartphone. I have a Vibrant and I have Bionix with all of these other add one like 5 signal bar and the 3g icon instead of the H. Its made my phone killer. Its fast as hell and is a million times better then any stock phone. Team Whiskey is the the most amazing Dev. Team. I use my phone for everything from music to road directions and internet and of course facebook. Like most of us on xda we use its full potential. Does anyone agree or am I just looking into this to far??

It doesn't make me mad, in fact it makes me happy. Those are the type of people who call all android phones "droids" because of the commercials. They follow the trend and its what's cool right now. As long as they're happy with their phone and they keep buying its good for the rest of us because the manufacturers and the service providers get their money, and bringing us better phones and software.
No you are on the mark. And it's the masses that don't care about updates and make it hard for those of us who want the latest release on our handsets to have our voices heard. Which is why samsuck will continue making billions and ignore customer support...

I think you're just getting riled up over stuff that shouldn't really concern you. I have a lot of friends like that--they have iPhones and Android phones and barely exploit the potential. But so what? They're getting what they want out of the phone. And they're building up the smartphone userbase, which benefits us all.
As for not updating, why should they if the phone does everything they want already? Not everyone is interested in tinkering with their phones.
For example, my wife has an OG Droid and I don't think she's even changed the wallpaper or downloaded more than five apps. And so? She probably uses her phone for real work more than anyone else I know. She's probably on the phone 4-5 hrs a day and sends/receives hundreds of emails. The Droid works perfectly for her, so why should she care to mess with it? The phone itself just does not interest her.

This is very true.
The world is full of simpletons and absent minded people who are incapable of doing any critical thinking that are just waiting for someone to make decisions for them and lead them around by the nose. It's frustrating in other, more important aspects of life...in the smartphone department though not so much.

You forget not all people are technical. They buy phones for phone calls. Just because someone uses there phone for facebook and phone calls doesn't mean they are wasting a phone. They paid for it so let them do what ever they want. If they want to mod it then they will learn how to. To each their own.
Just because a smartphone can do anything doesn't mean its users necessarily use it for everything.

Heh, I really think it's just us at XDA for the most part. Just remember that everyone has different obsessions.
My wife thinks it's crazy that I would spend $500 on a phone or $2000 on a laptop, but then again I don't understand how she can drop $300 on a purse (and I can imagine this kind of thread among handbag enthusiasts: ("OMG, how can some women carry such cheap-ass knock-offs. Don't they know? Don't they care?").
Last example, my friend has some cheap Honda that he bought for commuting. He doesn't care about cars at all, but he's had multiple guys ask him what mods he's done. I'm sure that to these guys in the rice-burner community, my friend is some luddite dumbass because he hasn't installed some mods that would boost his car's performance. But again, he just doesn't care about turning his Honda into a street-racing machine.
It's their money, their loss if they don't want to learn.......most people are so lame when it comes to techie things it scares me, At work I have people asking me to fix their computers (I'm not I.T.) I look at it and I tell them i can fix it......... uhh 60% of the time it is unplugged........So, that's the people we deal with... but remember as long as they buy we benefit from the volume of sales

This guy is joke. He's taking credit for someone else's work. No credit is given what so ever. I believe he's claiming a Team Whiskey ROM for his own.....watch the video and decide for yourself.

I believe there's already been a thread about this guy. He also took credit for Master and Eugene roms if it's the same guy.
I watched it does Say " NERO OFFLINE"...........
He has a weird voice.......... anyway......... I would not get too upset he has only 202 hits..........doubt he is going to get much audience .......... he is playing only to the voices in his head at this point.............
He's using Internet Explorer with a Yahoo toolbar. I don't think I want anything this guy has kanged together on my phone.

did you know he made the lagfix, root and overclocking for the Galaxy S
WOW!!!

I don't support this guy one bit, but he does have this posted right in the middle of the main page....
" WE AT AKASKRILLER.COM DO NOT TAKE ANY CREDIT FOR MAKING ANY ROM , LAGFIX OR OVER CLOCKING OTHERS MADE THEM .. "
I do have to say that his video on how to root without a pc did help me when I was a noob. However the screenshots of "his" rom look like lots of stuff I've seen elsewhere.
Again with this ****. This the third thread about this guy. He doesnt take credit for anything as his own. He hacks the rom and makes it better or he mixes stuff from differnt roms. He charges 5 but its only for 24 hr tech support over the phone. How many ppl here do that. 80% of the time when a noob posts a question he gets flamed. None of that happens at akaskriller. I'm proud to be a member of his site.

All because you have a kind heart and skillful mind's. I wish you all the best, on this day of remembrance and just wanted to thank you all for what you did, do, and will do for all of us.

The reason we've been hearing it for years is because the web developers have been lazy and just stuck to flash, there was no incentive to use HTML5, but now since flash is being phased out of android they will have more incentive to use HTML5 seeing that more and more people are accessing the internet via mobile devices and as we know the iPhone has no flash and now android too.

Ya but a lot of the tablets out there today won't get Jellybean so they don't need to worry, and think of it this way, the iPad is massively popular and has NEVER had flash.
I don't see it being a prioblem, tbh, any educational website that is worth anything is already using HTML5 to cater for their iPad and iPhone customers, and if they aren't already using it then they are bad business people because they are neglecting a huge market.

I get that this move will push HTML5 sooner, but the point is that the mobile internet is not ready for this and a lot of android users need flash as things stand today.
I use the BBC iPlayer a lot on my phone. The live coverage of the Olympics app was also flash dependent. It is not a case of a lot of small websites that have been slow to adapt to HTML5, some VERY big sites are also stuck. I actually dumped chrome in favor of dolphin on my phone because I wanted to use flash.
I know that XDAers will be finding various ways to keep flash available or workarounds to access HTML5 versions of sites that usually try and call flash. Like it or not though, many many users are not aware of how to do this on their phones.
The adoption of HTML5 is already being forced by some mobile browsers no longer supporting it, JB not supporting it iThings not supporting it. I'm also happy to keep flash even if i don't get the "very best user experience". Frankly flash being rubbish by comparison to HTML5 sites will also force the issue. All I want is the option to have flash for those occasions I need it, and I am sure thats what the majority of android users want. Even those who run stock roms, never visit XDA and don't know what HTML5 or flash is.
I wonder what adobe is gonna do now
