I love this phone

I just came from the Atrix. I thought that I would be OK running the atrix without mods(locked bootloader), but i think i went through with-drawls from CM. Motorola blows goats with their locked blootloaders. Ther stock price is down 10%
Design Gears bricked his phone, that was the final straw. I will never by a Motorola phone again

Loving it too!
Coming from Leo I have found it very similar just with more mpx and RAM/ROM
Bye physical buttons as well.
So far so good (2 days with it)

some testings have showed that browsing speed of Atrix is not faster than Inspire. Proud to own an Inspire.

I agree, it is a great phone. Had it for a week now, it was a nice upgrade from my HTC Aria.

Love this phone too. Coming from 4 years of every iPhone - finally got bored and made the jump.
At first it was like a really bad break up - thought about the iPhone 4 every single day, missed it when I would hold or caress another phone, and wanted many of the features/memories back. Now after about two months, rooting, flashing to MIUI (following weekly builds), cattleprod's Cyan04.7 Kernel, and other tweaks and mods, I'm wholeheartedly fulfilled and more ways then before. Can't imagine going back to that terrible world I was in before.
Don't get me wrong, I have an iPad 2 and wouldn't give that up for the world (or any other Android tablet) though. Apples vs oranges though.

Upgraded from a cheap quick messaging phone

Great!
Wabi Sabi

Came from Iphone 4 and I'll never go back. Been with apple for past few years with 3g, 3gs, 4 and never again. The customization of Android makes it all worth the transition 100 times over.
So yes needless to say I love my Inspire 4g! In fact trying to talk buddy of mine into buying one instead of the Infuse. I prefer HTC.

The infuse has about 1/2 the RAM and only 200 MHz more CPU (easily in the stable OC range)
Also, the only bad thing about moving from the iPhone was the apps I had bought. It was SO easy to sync my contacts to Gmail.

I love his phone also. After rooting, custom Roms etc... this phone is even better. I switched from being and Iphone user and will not go back. I am waiting to get my wife one for her upgrade so she can get rid of the Iphone also.

After owning a LOT of phones, this has been my favorite by far....love the aluminum build quality, HTC is my fave manufacturer, sense is great, development support is awesome, everything!
Sadly I had to get rid of mine today I needed the money for my wifes bday, but I'm hoping soon things will turn up and I'll have the money to buy another one...I miss it already. I hope more people buy this phone so they can realize how amazing HTC + Android are...run from your iPhones please.

Count me in on the Inspire love. I've had mine for a couple months now and find it still to be an exceptional smartphone. I haven't rooted mine but I do use custom launchers. Currently using GO Launcher EX with the GoContacts/GoDialer and continue to be amazed by this Inspire.
I can't take screenshots on my Inspire but this is exactly what it looks like from these screenshots of my HD2. The only difference is the taskbar.

Somebody talk me into keeping this phone, I'm starting to get bored with it.

Hey guys. I love my Inspire, but like always, it's starting to get a little old to me and I'm getting the itch for something different. I've flashed everything from CM7 to the new Sense 3.0 port... but it's starting to get "same-ole, same-ole". Someone offer a fellow Inspire owner some words of wisdom on why this device is worth holding on to, because quite frankly I "want" to keep it.

Get a Captivate, find out how bad the OS system is, and switch back to the Inspire...
HTC and Apple phones are the best for ATT IMO out of the box...

Or you could go buy a basic go phone with no internet access. Very quickly you will realize that your android isn't as boring as you thought.

Funny you should mention the keyboard... after 6 months, it was the only part of my former crapflip that didn't turn to ****.
The aluminum body on the Inspire is so much more robust than most of the dainty plastic phones it competes with.
IMO, HTC is at the top of their game. Every major US carrier has at least one great HTC.
Quality always bests quantity in my book, though HTC has managed equal parts of both in spades.

This is the honest answer. Once you get used to a phone OS and are able to work your way around pretty much all aspects of it, it becomes boring.
The only options are to either stick with it (maybe due to there not being a better OS in your opinion, maybe due to the app market, maybe due to some kind of hope that something revolutionary will come along that can be done on your device, etc.) or to go try a new OS (Windows Phone VII and iOS still exist)

Dude the reason its so boring is cuz your not utilizing the options. Like me. If I'm at work ill pop on YouTube or a movie and Watch it to speed up the time being or even Pandora. Then on lunch breaks,ill pull out modern warfare and kill some online ass. Then when I go to my classes at 9pm,pull out quickoffice and take notes the easy way. Then email them to myself and start all over. Yell the Andy calculators help Me in my college algebra 2 class. Facebook,flash player,mp3 player,graphical calculators(which run like $100+ from TI) POINT IS....Android rules it all. If u get bored,go onto ustream and stream something live and enjoy it. Ufc or something. IPhone sucks imo,owned that trashed that. And with HTC,updates will be here in no time. Like they said SGS will keep u busy fixing it,rather than enjoying. Reason I posted this is to give example of how to enjoy ur phone,for more than mere entertainment.

+1 guys, thank's for some great (and some not-so-great, haha) responses. I know that if I hop over to another WP 7 or iOS device i will realize why I liked Android so much in the first place, just because of what it can do that they cannot.
I am on the same page, as I believe Android is the dominant mobile OS. I think it's like being married...eh.. and there is that blonde co-ed down the hall. Yeah, it could be nice, but you will always go back to the wife you married... well, maybe.
I suppose I'm just looking over at the other side of the fence, and even though I like what I see, I know when I get over there, I will more than likely want to come back.

Well like I said bud just do other things ya know? The thunderbolt,inspire,even the optimus G2X, all are the same. Just with different UI's. And of course ffc or higher LTE and 4g speeds.

Inspire 4G to Atrix

Sold my Inspire not too long ago (I fell prey to the allure of the dual core Motorola Atrix).
Worst... decision... EVER!!!
Although it had the dual core it actually felt slower and more clunky overall than the Inspire. I was running GingerBlur which helped as it basically removed MotoBlur but itstill felt like a real step backwards. HDMI was kind of a novelty although I never used it. The only thing in Moto's favour was battery life. For me, I prefer quality over quantity .
Krisbo

If u read up on this matter, specifically other inspire owners doing the same thing, you would have an overwhelming amount of first hand accounts coming to the same conclusion... the atrix is a fail of a phone and its not worth it. Specs doesn't make the phone. It's the overall experience that does. Some people have to find out the hard way I guess. My advice... switch back to the inspire.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App

I just re-read my post, forgot to mention that I received an Inspire in the mail today . As soon as it booted it up I was much happier than I ever was with the Atrix.

About to trading my inspire...thoughts?

OK so I've arranged a trade soon for a Sony xperia play (which I'm trading my inspire for) and I was wondering your thoughts on this?
Obviously I understand its what makes me happy, but I want other opinions on this.
I know the hardware is similar (CPU, gpu) wise. But I've been playing a lot of emulators lately and think a controller would be better for me.
I'm not sure if the xperia play has gorilla glass or not .....
So my question is would you make this trade?
and how do you think the two phones compare?

I wouldn't trade. But don't get me wrong the Xperia is a great device

Its that simple. If playing those games is worth paying for the unlock then I'd say trade. If not than stick with the inspire. Im on a sammy skyrocket coming from the Inspire and I miss it. My 2 cents......

He was told to use the marketplace in the thread he created a couple days back...this user doesn't take direction well
but back to the point, I agree with the majority while the xperia is a great device..the development behind the Inspire is awesome so I'm staying put. However, it seems that you're more in it for the gaming experience and if that's what you're looking to get out of your device, I think the Xperia won't let you down!

just look at the username lol, that should explain something.
i dont think the xperia will get ICS. If youre the type of person that likes the latest and greatest. This phone will satisfy you because its been able to run froyo all the way to ics. This phone will keep you busy over your 2 year contract.

Asking here is kinda pointless as the people here still have the device so it would be one sided. You better off asking in the other device section.

Yep. I agree that was probably uncalled for. Sorry to thekid1. A better answer may be to wait until the new Samsung is released and for the old model to drop in price. Thekid1 has asked about things before that are easy to research.
I would never ask an internet forum how I should spend my hard earned money, but that is me. I wish all my clients would ask me to how to spend their money.

Like someone said before if you want to get updates get a Nexus and don't waste your money on any other android phone. I'm done with non Nexus devices I'm tired of the lack of suppose all the manufactures have for phones. You won't get much suppose from Samsung been there with the Vibrant they will release a very slightly revised S3 3 months later and forget you exist. No thanks.

Just get the One S. It is insanely fast and is built really well. I love it for a couple key reasons:
1. It has the new snapdragon S4 which is based off the newer smaller A15 architecture rather than the A9 which is in the Gs3 and almost all other phones right now. The A15 is more powerful and uses less energy.
2. It has a smaller 4.2" screen which in my opinion is the biggest a screen should be.
3. Build quality is really good and feels good in my hand.
That is my grain of salt for consideration.
