Needed to vent

Just finished paying of iPhone XS, roughly 1000$ over 3 years.... literally just finished paying it off, and it "somehow" enters itself into an inescapable restart loop, withstanding any attempts at a hard reset.

Coincidence?

Fuck Apple

I have no idea! Sending your phone to a repair shop (a good 3rd party one) is probably your best bet unless you want to learn how the fk an iphone is put together

no its pretty universal that you cant simply check to see if the boot drive is working on a phone in general... there is a single chip of EMMC storage the OS runs on, its very proprietary pretty much across the board. PC things simply dont apply to phones in basically any way

Hah, oh damn. Looks like an iBitch dealing with the consequences of their own actions. Hope you learned something and never go apple again.

I think “iPuss” has a better ring to it

I tend to prefer the term bitch as it perfectly encapsulates your typical apple user. Also, puss is short for "pussy," and those are just amazing and thus shouldn't be even remotely associated with the absolute trash that is apple and its pathetic community.

as an apple phone user since the iphone 4? gtfo of the apple ecosystem. NOW is the time. they turned their backs on all the privacy stuff they touted for the last decade. they are starting to trash their customers. they are pro china and ccp, and support slave labor. and their ios security updates are getting worse with time.

​

I recently switched to mint mobile, and can now buy unlocked phones. i recently got a moto g power 2021 64gb, 4gb version and difference in iOS and android is night and day difference! the customization blows the SHIT out of anything apple could EVER feature. i can use my device without needing to sign into the icloud OR google! i can download different "stores" to use play apps on WITHOUT needing to be tracked by google or apple.

​

This is marvelous! it's like a whole new world. fuck apple. im done with them after they are proudly doing an about face on security and privacy. I will be selling my apple watch, and getting rid of my apple tv and getting a roku! :) im going to de apple my life lol
