I was perfectly happy with ICS but since the update for Jellybean was sitting on my Tab 2 7.0 this morning I figured there would be no harm done in upgrading. What a mistake! Here's why I hate the upgrade.
1. Much to my utter astonishment, dismay, and distress the update COMPLETELY got rid all my screen buttons on every stinking screen. (Including carefully constructed pointers to file folders, pointers to web sites...EVERYTHING. I've carefully tweaked those screens for a year and these idiots have the audacity to completely destroy them and replace them with their unwanted bloatware without a single word of warning? Are you kidding me? Their arrogance is unbeleivable. (Hey, Google, what's that about "Don't Be Evil?")
2. The Back and Main buttons used to be very sensibly located directly under my left thumb. Now they're located half way across the tablet where neither thumb can reach them without a stretch. I understand they're trying to make tablets and phones to be consistent, a one size fits all sort of thing. Well one is a PHONE and the other is a TABLET! One size does NOT fit all.
3. The status screen button was moved to the top of the screen putting it in an inconvenient location and eating up screen real estate. Also, it no longer shows battery charged percentage. A classic example of fixing something that was not broken.
I would write more but I gotta get back to trying to rebuild my screens. BTW, I really know where I'd like to stick their jellybeans.
