To cover me until my Pixel arrives I had my Galaxy S4 mailed up from home. Got here today and I turned it on. It is now attempting to react to every notification I have gotten in the last 2 years. IT WON’T STOP BUZZING!

Luckily it seems to be clearing all the old ones as it goes so I don’t have to clear them manually. I also have 93 app updates and an OS update to do.

I would if I could get it to unlock. It is lagging so much right now.

It’s stories like these that make me wanna buy a $30 flip phone in case mine shits out.

Clearly the solution for the buzzing is to keep it in a foam-lined box...

Or pick up an old Motorola V3 RAZR:

...Which you can buy for about $30 on ebay and you can even (theoretically) surf the internet with it!

This is exactly why I kept the Galaxy around.

That looks like a Blackberry Curve... I had one of those and still have a couple of them lying around at home.

Excellent phones in their time.
