[Q] Which phone is better - General Questions and Answers

I am having a tough time deciding which phone to upgrade to. I love the look of the samsung fascinate but i also heard the droid incredible is pretty good too. I have the droid eris right now. I thought maybe some of you could give your opinion and insight so I can decide which to get.
Thanks in advance!

Go for the Droid Incredible...you won't regret it....

what you think?

I just wanted to get peep opinion on if i should trade my D2G for Droid X...Missing the slide out keyboard really no biggie to me.. my friend wants a keyboard.. so tell what you think, thanks!
I am really thinking about the HTC thunderbolt, but would just use the the X or d2g until then!
Really depends on your needs. I got the global mainly for the capability of the international plan. I'm in the army so I wanted something to keep on deployments. Plus the X was just a little to big for me.

Hello All!

Glad to see a few people have picked up the sidekick 4g! Cant wait to see what kind of development it will receive!
Its a really good device and is much better than my slide.
i got one for my gf and i wanted to keep it and start modding it but its hers its the first sidekick i liked
Ya I was very surprised when I picked up for my gf. I found myself always playing with the phone. First sidekick I actually liked as well.
She is very happy with it. And she also.can't wait to get some nodding done on it!

Our persistence paid off!

Congrats guys! We got our forum.
I love my A2. Let's get crackin on recovery.
To get recovery you will first have to unlock the bootloader. I'm looking to save up for the atrix2. Accepting donations from some of my roms in order to buy one. Once I get one I'm gonna try to unlock the bootloader and get recovery running. Then make a bloatware free ROM

Woot Thank God finally our own forum to play around in
Awesome, this is one great phone and now it will do nothing but get better!
Congratz guys ! As an atrix owner i got jealous of you when i navigated through atrix 2 u.i. It is by far the coolest Android user interface that i've seen.

Nice! I had an inspire for a while and loved all the dev support. I'm hoping you'll save up soon! I used an upgrade from another one of my lines to get the rebate, and am totally satisfied.
A lot of people complain it's not much of an upgrade from the original, but i think its by far superior in every way. It still has a 1ghz dual-core processor, but i find it much more responsive and smoother than the original atrix. Same resolution and size of the inspire screen, but it seems to be a bit brighter. looks really clean.

Thanks for the info lil brother might get a phone soon might take his new 2 year contract phone and give him my captivate or something

Thanks to the Admin(s) who listened to us and made this forum possible, we have Atrix 2 forums on other boards but at XDA I feel we have a home!
Another thanks goes to all you A2 owners out there, we came together and made our voice heard so we could get this forum. It may have taken longer than we felt it should have but that's how the cookie crumbled. We have it now so that's all that matters.
It's a great phone. I came from a Droid x and the A2 blows it out of the water. I love the qHD screen and its by far the easiest screen to see in direct sunlight. I just changed the oil pan on my car today in straight sunlight and didn't have a problem taking calls or texting. Screen is amazing.

I wont be getting an Atrix2 since i own the atrix but if i didn't own an atrix, i would buy the atrix2 for sure. Btw i believe all atrix owners are waiting for the RAZR like me.
It would be great if that u.i could be ported to original atrix.
Hey be true and do what I did... Bought both.. Die hard atrix guy here... And I agree and love that we got our forum. Joined just to see it happen lol...

They're both great phones, but is there enough of a difference to justify upgrading from OG to 2? xD
I'm gonna have both 1 and 2 . Gonna use one while developing for the other and switcheroo

Thinking about a Thunderbolt

I've had the thunderbolt but once I bought the Rezound I sold the thunderbolt but kinda want it back so I have both or should I wait and see if HTC releases another HTC phone on Verizon?? Just want to have choices in what phone I carry.

I personally would hold off and see what they come out with next year - waiting always pays off, especially when having to keep that same device for 20 months until you can upgrade. Also taking into consideration that they are making phones with a lot better batteries too.
Ya I know I jump on the Thunderbolt wagon quick now I have the Rezound but I want a backup Thunderbolt.

I have both the incredible and now the thunderbolt. I still have not decided which one I am going to use but the thunderbolt is very nice.
I am going to pick up a rezound battery and see how it runs compared to the incredible.
If you can pick up a thunderbolt on the used market fairly cheap I say go for it.

Someone looking for a used thunderbolt ;-) pm me and let me know what you are looking to spend.
Someone looking to trade for a rezound? I just got a fresh new thunderbolt

If you're looking to root I would add that with the right rom the battery problems can be eliminated pretty well. I'm running infectedroms eternity nightly and a performance governer on setcpu and after more than 22 hours on battery I was still at 70 percent battery

I have bpth also, actually running the same rom (mikrunny) on both. Loved my dinc, but the tbolt is super smooth and im lovin the big screen. Dinc is now my sons angry birds machine, he is 5.

Thunderbolt is the best phone on the market still, IMO. The gigantic community backing it makes it better than anything else out there. Unbelievably tweakable and customizable. Great ROMs and great kernels.

I did the same thing. Ran a WiFi only script on the incredible and turned it into a ipod like device. Boys love it and I really like the thunderbolt. So far it has been great. No problems and everything is running well on the same ROM.

Wanted to thank everyone for the advice and say sorry for posting my thank you so late. So I took some advice and I'm going to hang onto my Rezound and when something nice comes around use the Rezound for my second line. Oh I have two lines one is personal and business for the other but only have a dumbphone for business. So thank you for all the kind help.

Honestly, I have an Evo, and if you're looking for another phone, I'd strongly recommend the galaxy nexus.
I'll be honest I was thinking about getting the a nexus but I'm kinda stuck in the HTC funk LOL.

I'm the same way with HTC. I had an Eris, Incredible (wife's), Thunderbolt, and now an Incredible 2. I love the Thunderbolt but I wanted something with more development and LTE is still abut 10 miles from me. I did buy a Rezound battery for it and I'm currently using it as a little ICS tablet. I might sell it but I might end up regretting it.

I just actived the nexus for my dad, honestly im pretty jealous lol, everything is so smooth. I Still love my thunderbolt just that dev is pretty slow right now hopefully it picks back up again soon
Just got rid of my bolt a few days ago. I came really close to deciding to throw it against a brick wall instead of selling it. I hate it that much. Got the GS2, I absolutely love it.
I am on the Thunderbolt for the 3rd time now. I have had the Nexus, Rezound and the Razr Maxx. The only phone I liked better than the Thunderbolt is the Razr Maxx. I think I will get the Razr Maxx again but I will keep the Thunderbolt around for my second phone!

I'm upgrading tonight. HELP!

I'm upgrading tonight and finally ditching the Droid X. I'm either getting the HTC Rezound or the Droid Razr Maxx. Both have tons of pros and cons. I need your opinions. Please help!

razr maxx, the phone is actually amazing and the battery lasts as long as your grandma's brick phone.
I would suggest to wait it out and take a look at the Incredible 4G or whatever variant of the SIII Verizon gets. Also take a look in the marketplace, sometimes you can get a Maxx or Rezound for around $300 which .. well the phone on a contract is like $200 then you can save your upgrade for later
Razr Maxx all the way. The battery life is amazing.
Is it easy to root the maxx? Or has Motorola made it a pain in the ass to deal with the bootloader?
