I dont belive in what verizon rep say because they tend to be wrong. Also tje person who is saying that it os going to be released on May 12 is also wrong because there is no source to prove it just my opinion

Everybody is just probably guessing based on past update releases by
Verizon. Ultimately, only Vetizon knows, maybe.
I honestly don't think it's that much of a priority for them.
How many customers they may loose because of things like this is just small
collateral damage in the end. If it really hurt them things would be
different but it doesn't and it isn't.
Most companies, if not all are in business for one reason, to make money.
To do that they have to keep you as a customer by competing with the other
carriers that want you as a customer too. I don't think they really care
about us, they just don't want us to go elsewhere so the competition
creates an atmosphere of offerings designed to keep you. That is as far as
it goes. We as consumers benefit from such competition because we have
choices.
They know that in the end, timely software updates doesn't even come close
to keeping customers than pricing and coverage which is probably the real
focus and priority. More people stay or leave based on these 2 things more
than anything else. In my opinion, coverage with "reasonable" pricing is
probably the most important and nobody bests Verizon here. Being last to
push out an occasional update is just not that important to them within the
grand scheme of things. Just my opinion.

This is only applicable to the Developer Edition of Verizon Galaxy Note 3. Retail version has a LOCKED bootloader, which prevents users from applying custom Kernels REQUIRED for installing Android 4.4 KitKat based ROMs such as CyanogenMod. However, at your own risk, you can use Safestrap Recovery to install custom stock (Android 4.3 Jelly Beans) based ROMs, as described at
[RECOVERY LOCKED/MI9,MJ7,MJE] Safestrap Recovery v3.71 [2013-12-27 BETA] - xda-developers
Verizon don't care about these complaints or comments.
Hi,
I just started a petition on Care2: Demand to make it illegal for all Cell Phone Carriers to install Bloatware on all their devices NOW!. I'm hoping that if enough people sign my petition, we can make a difference. Right now I've got 10 signatures — will you help me collect more by adding your name, and then use the links below to share it on social media?
Here's a link to the petition: http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AH1tt

Would you also please start a petition to make it illegal for TV stations to have commercials? Thank you.
rcschnoor if you would sign it I would in a minute. But that is why I have direct tv. Why should we advertise with bloatware and Not have a option to uninstall. your carrier is getting a kickback by them installing crap thats not needed without your option to uninstall it.
That's interesting, I have watched commercials on Direct TV before. You must have a "special" subscription.
