Idiots at Google Android

If Microsoft would get some decent hardware for Windows Mobile I'd drop Android in a second, what an annoying OS.

Time and Date Pickers
Talk about design fail. Most. Annoying. Pickers. Ever.


Need to scan forward a couple months and find the second Monday of the month? Well you better hope somebody has a wall calendar up nearby cause this useless crap isn't going to help.

Vibrate on Back Button
Just to be annoying? If I press the back button, I can see the screen change, why are earth would I need additional feedback? What a stupid feature.

com.google.process.gapps has stopped
"Google" that and you will find tons of web pages devoted to the topic. Got that on my phone one day, with a bonus, it popped up every 3-10 seconds continuously. It gets better. The error pops up with the OK please fuck off button disabled for about 1 second. What an amazing feature someone took the time to add, disabling the okay button for a brief moment, well done, idiot.

No Blocking of Numbers
I actually trying to log the lack of a caller-block feature as a bug with the Android developers. The response was they had debated the topic and decided not to add the feature. The idiots win again.

Anything good about Android?
I got a Motorola with a quad-core processor, high definition screen and gorilla glass for eighty-something dollars and change. Eat that Apple.
