It can wait! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

As a member of this awesome and ever expanding community, I feel it's my responsibility to inform other members of the dangers of phone use while driving. We own very sophisticated and appealing devices especially when modded. Yesterday I was involved in an accident involving 3 cars all because I was paying more attention to my phone and not the road. I ran a red light and t-boned another car which in turn hit another car. Nobody was injured thankfully but, it could've been much worse. I just wrote this so my fellow members can have extra care when driving, it can be very tempting to use our devices while driving PLEASE DON'T!!!!
Thank you and be safe.

Thanks god nobody got injured, but I seriously got a little irritated by this post. You put other people in danger because you were playing with your phone. And now you're warning others because you feel it's your responsibility? It should be clear that you shouldn't use your phone while driving! I mean, you hear it everyday and I don't believe it's new information to you.
Once again, thank god you and the others are alright.

Re: It can wait
I would like to think 99% of this forum are aware of the stupidity of using a phone while driving without your public service announcement. Thankfully you didn't kill anyone whilst you decided your time is better spent pissballing about rather then concentrating on not killing innocent people :thumbup:

glad it was only metal which was bent ....I think talking on cell phone and driving should be worth a ticket in Florida ....

You don't have those commercials where you live? The one where it'll have just one word in black text over a white background (for example)
"Hey"
Then it has someone explain how that was the last word their son/daughter/brother/sister etc. ever saw because that was the text message they were reading when they got into a fatal car accident.
I see the commercial almost daily here and don't personally need to be reminded, but the gesture is nice I suppose.
What you have to remember is that you are responsible for moving thousands of pounds of sharp, jagged metal, glass and combustible fuels. Generally speaking, none of these play very well with the human body. If you stop paying attention to what you're doing for even a second, you can effectively turn your car into a wrecking ball or missile.
There are plenty of ways to have your texts read to you via Bluetooth headsets or over your car speakers. This is Android, we can literally do just about anything with these phones.
(Off topic Apple rant spawned from this)
Every time I get in a car with an iPhone user they are always driving and messing with texts or music. Freaking idiots.

Just to clear the air a bit and I should have posted this from the beginning, I wasnt TEXTING or TALKING on the phone. I was merely flipping thru tracks on my music player and got distracted. I'm not saying this makes it any better, rather I am just stating the facts. I have apologized to the people I hit and I am TRULY SORRY not that it matters to anyone here. This can happen to anyone and I just hope that it doesnt. Lesson learned.

You didn't make a 'stupid mistake' you ran the risk of killing several innocent people. That's not a 'mistake'
that's sheer idiocy. My 'accurate statistics' aren't really the problem here, huh?
Your 'stupid mistake' whilst In control of tonnes of fast moving metal is akin to wandering around with a loaded gun with your finger on the trigger. It don't take a genius to realise it may end it a casualty.
It doesn't really need the fact pointing out either....

Over compensating much?
They hyped up this device beyond what it could deliver. It launched terribly and hasn't really met expectations. Its a good device, perhaps great for some. However it clearly has some issues and you can expect people to discuss those issues. This is a forum after all.
If all you can do is throw a childish temper tantrum then by all means the exit is alt f4. Grow up. This is a place for development and discussion not temper tantrums.
Oh right, we now have people complain about people complaints.
You sir are the same.
If you have nothing to say then stfu.

What's the point of spreading around doom and gloom that will probably never come to fruition?
What the article fails to mention is that most of those patents could never be used to critically damage Google because Google could argue that it would destroy competition/ put them out of business/ create a monopoly. In other words, not happening.
I LOLd so hard at the Steve Jobs quote. He was owned by Bill Gates. Now Android are apparently copying him. Windows mobile was revolutionary before his over hyped and priced junk came out.

Pretty good piece. It's blatantly evident that the patent system is broken & is being exploited.
This crap just makes me angry. I can't stand that skeevy little company. They remind me of the spoiled little kid that expects everything for themselves, and nothing for anyone else.
Why do people waste their time on that site?

This is why people need to stop using convenience as their sole criterion for deciding which product to purchase. Every purchase has ethical implications. If you give money to Apple, you're helping them perpetuate these atrocities.
I have no respect for anyone who reads articles like this and still uses iProducts.

I agree with this completely. All that would be required to stall a potential suit, is an anti-competition counter suit. Federal laws are in place to prevent power moves, like the ones Apple has been pulling lately.

I think you fail to understand what really happens. Apple attacks all android vendors with patents. What generally happens in this case is that both parties raise a mutual agreement and the "infringer" pays licensing fees to the other. But with Apple, it's different, they don't want royalties or money of any kind, they want to destroy the others. So the others have no choice but fighting back with the same weapons.
Patents have been weapons like in the cold war days for quite some time now, nobody dared attacking, fearing mutual destruction, now one vendor has been stupid enough to start the war without willing to discuss, so the other partied have no other choice than either dying or fighting back. Google doesn't do evil here, they just do what is needed to stay alive.
We all knew this was coming. Google has stated repeatedly that the reason they bought Motorola was for their patents.
Go Google!

Oh, trust me I know.
But I also know there is a difference between doing something for free and money. Trust me on that one that there is .
Rooted, flashed my fair share of roms on buddies, colleagues phones, and never ever one of them came to me, that something is bugged.
I even had to hear from a third party that they had some issues. They never said I was at fault. Never.
However, repairing a computer and been forced, money put into my pocket with angry looks and going away, no matter how much I said I don't want it. Or getting a chocolate ...
this equals to a next call with "you know, you repaired I know, and its for sure not your fault, but could you come and have a look?"

If someone on the street asked you for the time would you charge him first?
Buck up your ideas man! XDA is an open community where people of like minded interests try to help better their phones and their lives etc...
Asking if you should charge someone to root their phone for them when the whole process was originally created by someone who released it for free is just dim witted imho.
I can imagine that with an attitude like yours you wont have these 'friends' for much longer.
Give me a tenner and I'll tell you how much to charge.
XDA is a free and open community. Send him here or do it for free.
Discussing how much money to scam from your friend isn't exactly what XDA is all about.

You realize how much you just got played right?

AND you are going to contact customer service at vzw in which case they will then try to sell you something after reading your pointless email.
Seems like VERY effective marketing strategy to me.

Calm down guys. Xda also has iPhone forums. Its just a phone. If you don't like iphones than don't buy one. And if you want to discuss iphones than post in that section LOL

I have both Android and i devices. Personally I find the whole idea of arguing over a phone pretty retarded... like eating paint chips retarded. I heard an Apple engineer designed a thermostat called the nest, let's argue which thermostat is better, or should it have a larger screen? How about refrigerators? Let's argue about which one makes the best ice.
