Yeap. I'm not having the charger issue, but my GPS is toast since KK. That is why I am switching to ATT next month when my contract is up. ATT may have the same policy, but I have no other way to let Verizon know that I'm not happy other than leave.
I'll also never buy another Samsung device or anything running Android. If it was just my device, I might accept that. But it is hundreds, if not thousands of devices.
