"I upgraved my phone to the new OS, now it's a brick."

After spending three hundred million dollars upgraving Doors 7 to Doors 8, first quarter sales numbers show that only three pointy haired bosses and an drunken monkey bought Doors 8.

update bomb

(v.) To overwrite a piece of software with a new version, which surprisingly turns out to be inferior to the old version.

I update bombed my phone to the new OS, now the maps don't work and there's these ugly gradients everywhere.

uprape

A software update that wrecks features that made the software wonderful, removing or breaking features, filling it with disgusting shit and leaving it a sad broken shell of its former self.

Doors upraped their flagship OS in version 8, imposing an obnoxious clownish fake touch screen like interface as the centerpiece of a formerly great operating system.
