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!

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.

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.
I will be receiving my new mytouch 4g this thurs. I have been bouncing around with different phones in the past two months. My last three phones were the G2, Nexus S, and most recently the Inspire.
What can I expect coming to this side? What are the most sought after roms kernels? The phone im getting is already rooted with s off and all that so I guess the easy part is done :+}

cool..too bad I've been using gingerbread for the past couple of months now! So far so good!
Damn it, you beat me to it!
Well, 2Q 2011 ended 11 days ago. I'll believe it when I see it. Actually, I won't ever see it because I'm now using Virtuous Unity. Hot stuff I tell you. And it doesn't have all the pre-loaded crapware T-Mobile adds into the ROM.
The Nexus One spoiled me. I tried to keep my MT4G stock as long as possible. I'm surprised I made it 6 months on the stock MT4G ROM. Once you root and flash a gazillion different ROMs, stock is definitely and simply boring.

Of course not the hardware on that thing is the same as Sensation....We get Espresso, check out the leaked GB ROM for our phones, that's what we're getting. There's a doubleshot rom from the MT4GS here too if you wanna taste of 3.0 on that phone. Ginger for us will look just like froyo, no fancy 3D effects for older single core phones.

You are correct. The Gingerbread leak from early May looks identical to 2.2.1. The only big change/addition was the inclusion of the Quick Settings tab in the notification pulldown. I believe the leaked build had Sense 2.1. Pretty much going to have to rely on XDA if you want Sense 3.0 on your MT4G.

I've been testing the Gingerbread update and was going to post some screenshots, but apparently I need to have at least 8 posts before I can do so per the rules of the forums here.
I don't want to spam the forums here to hit some limit, but when I hit the magical 8 posts, I'll submit a post with images of the update.
So if i were to unroot to check out the update when its released i would have to root a completly different way? I had to gfree cause of the locked bootloader on the mt4g that i bought. Since my phone has the "bad emmc" I was thinking that using stock for a couple months til the phone dies would be a safe gamble.
What gingerbread update your talking about? We haven't got an ota, just the leak.

I know what the thread is about. You may wanna read my question again.
Again, the question is whether joedonh is from tmo and thats how he is testing the upgrade or whether he is working on leaked version which everyone here has access to. Later is most likely not the case but just want to confirm.
Some Tmo employees have been selected to test the official GB rom. I imagine it is just as bad as the froyo build. it is still a "stock" rom so i am sure it is full of bloatware...

If he is an employee with T-mobile then he'd be breaking the NDA that they have to sign when getting phones or updates before the public. It's also against T-mobile policy. I wouldn't take the chance of it getting back to T-mobile and losing my job to show off a screen shot.
Has there been many bricked phones recorded, like bad chips or is it random?

Nope. I havent heard of one brick.
Sent from my Senseless Doubleshot using xda premium
Me either - we've been fortunate.
I was in a verizon store the other day looking at upgrading my phone because I broke the screen, and it happened to be right after i'd reflashed to stock to test something.
I was talking to a rep about rooting and stuff, and went to show him how to remap a hardware key to something else. Realized I wasn't rooted, but had the superuser update on my sdcard. I just reflashed it and continued with what I was trying to show him.
Hah, he was like "wow, that easy, huh? it took you like 20 seconds...aren't you worried about bricking your phone?"
I explained how you can only really brick it when writing a radio file, which I wasn't doing, and that we had zero reports of bricks thus far - and then proceeded to knock on wood and hope that we continue to be so fortunate.
undeadk9 and blue6ix, thanks for your replies .
No problem, we're here to help.
Just to clarify, I broke my other phone, not my beloved doubleshot.
So are the rooting methods here novice level? By the looks of them they require a lot of concentration.

Beautiful, should I follow instructions from an xda thread or head straight to the site. And thanks for all the help. It is really appreciated. Again, undeadk9 and droidmoder. Edit- went to the site and an xda thread is definitely what I need, in the mtg4 slide compendium thread there is like 3 or 4, any suggestions as to the friendliest one or are they all comparable in ease? Edit- not to get ahead of myself, is the modaco recovery. More stable than clockworkmod?

I use sense on crack. I'm too spolied wih. Sense and gb. Cm7 senseless and virtrious are all aosp. I ve used senseless but as I said to spoiled with some stock features that aosp does not have or is way different. Aosps are similar minus the devs themeing and added features.
All the roms are easy to install just follow directions. Cm7 uses the new clockwork while the other ones use the older version (modaco).
They all have great support devs are helpful. Undeadk9 is the author of sense on crack and senseless. He's super helpful.

Fwiw the iPod vid cable as well as the creative zen vision m cables work in case you have one sitting around and want to check it out.
AS for the bricks i'm not worried about it.. Based on my brief research these aren't like the glaciers (mt4g) where it's a lottery as to if you'll end up with one that has the crappy Sharp lcd and bad emmc or get lucky with a Sony lcd and good emmc. I went through 3 of them before finally ending up with one that had the good screen and emmc but even that over had a hardware issue a the camera wouldn't work...... Hence why i'm on the mt4gs now oddly the guys there painted a bad picture of this slide when I mentioned I'd be switching to this phone which I can say was completely obviously based on no real knowledge or having experienced this phone. and sorry to say a lot of dev support for a dated device does not make for a better phone although it does make it more pleasurable to have....which some will try to make one think otherwise.........

You could of read the compendium before you bought it .
Myself I have to have a hardware keyboard coming from a g1. I liked the mt4g but wanted a keyboard. I saw the slide was announced to be released in a few months. So I waited. When it came out I was tempted by the g2x. But the camera keyboard and similar specs sold me the slide.
Best implusive/informed purchase I've made yet. I use this phone more than my laptop. Its fast as heck, has an awsome camera and I can watch netflix or game on my tv.

So I've received the HTC One S a few days ago (not the One X + because tmobile doesn't like nice phones) and I'm falling in love with it! So I guess this means goodbye, at least for a while. I'm sure this is good news for most lol. If it's any conciliation, the HTC one S development thread is horrible!! It has no personality what so ever and no one objects when others ask for ETAs which is something I've grown to genuinely love about this community Hopefully Bhundven and his team successfully port jelly bean (and have TV out working) but I'm sure a few weeks after, there'll be a mass migration back to ics in favor of a more "stable rom." lol Anywho good luck guys, the Samsung Galaxy S 4g will always be in my heart!

I've also been eyeing that phone... I think the One X is too big, and the One S is much closer to the size of the GS4G, which I like very much. I've also checked out the One S forums, but am still on the fence, especially since my phone works so well with these custom roms, I really don't have a great reason to upgrade, other than trying something new..
please report back how you like it (or send a PM if you don't want to clutter up the board here).

Yeah honestly I can't stress to you how awesome this phone is! The display is super bright, the resolution is also pretty good so don't worry about qhd complaints specially since you're coming from the S 4g display. The camera is professional quality and it preforms well day to day. If you don't like sense you can always install apex or a stock aokp ics rom but I happen to like sense personally specially the widgets and customizations. The rooting method, like for most htc phones, is significantly harder. There is another thing called S-off which has hindered development for the phone. There are still plenty of roms to play around with (including jelly bean!) but the installation is pretty tricky so for instance, you'll need to use a command prompt to flash something called a boot image to install any time and it's easy to brick. There are other new terms you'll need to learn of course. Don't let this scare you. One of the best things is the battery life (Both onscreen and stand by). The sheer performance is out of this world for example it can be over clocked to 2.1 mhz! Trust me when I say you won't regret having this phone! I've even heard from some it's better than the one X
