over the past few onths i have gone from the mt4g to the sidekick 4g, to the g2x, to the nexus s. what i have learned is that no matter how nice a phone looks it will never beat an htc. the only reason i would ever leave this phone again is for the amaze or sensation.
htc's sense is by far the best ui there is and there is not a single app that can even come close to replicating it. trust me if you get rid of it you will regret it!!

if you ask me, i say yes. but, i'm pretty biased toward samsuck products, so i guess my opinions aren't very accurate. though, i DO have to admit, the Galaxy Nexus is pretty nice
lol why not the HTC Sensation? or even the Amaze?
also +1 on what the OP said, MT4G really is a beast phone. THANK YOU HTC!
Im planning to get windows phone when i bored with mt4g. The only thing i love from sense is its quality of its software. Best GUI ever on android phone. But ithink metro ui is thebest gui ever found on a phone.

samsung makes some pretty cool phones but i dont need to be near a computer to flash a rom with my HTC. Thats what will keep me an HTC customer. Motorola and Samsung need to get their act together when it comes to root access.
In all fairness, the MyTouch 4G is terrible... until you root it and put a new rom on.

I'd agree with that. The hardware specs allow it to run any custom ROM extremely well, but the stock "mySense" ROM leaves a lot to be desired.

Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
It depends on what you want in a phone. Since I don't really consider myself a power user, the MT4G has been close to perfect for me in terms of having fairly high-end hardware (remember, the majority of mainstream phones out there aren't very good even though we consider 1GHz and WVGA to be bare minimum requirements) at an acceptable price point.
What matters most to me is an active developer community because there was no way in hell regardless of what phone I got that I was going to keep the stock ROM. With all this Carrier IQ crap going on now, I had the right mindset all along and also got lucky that the Virtuous team removes Carrier IQ from their ROMs, which is good because I do like the Sense UI. However, I won't call myself an HTC fan. I'm only loyal to a product that works as I expect or want it to work, and I'm not that impressed with what I'm reading about HTC's newest phones. In addition, the Amaze reportedly has Carrier IQ. Fine and easy for people here to remove it, but not for the regular smartphone user.
If you told me to recommend a current new phone on the market compatible with T-Mobile's network for the non-rooter/flasher, I would recommend the Galaxy Nexus for AOSP's lack of spyware, even if that means having to wait at least another week for it in the US.

+1 that and +1 the op. When rooted the mytouch 4g is one of the best phones out there. Like other people said the only thing I'd even think about trading it for is am Amaze or Sensation.

I loved my mytouch since day one. in my opinion I don't think its the phone jus more of the software. Sense phones period are the best. Unlike asop, you have the best of both worlds (when rooted that is).
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I agree 100%. I went from a mytouch 3G 1.2 to a Galaxy S 4G and even though the Galaxy was much faster and smoother compared to the Mytouch 3G, it was difficult to root and the aftermarket ROMs for it are basically variations of the same stock TouchWiz rom. I found myself longing for my clunky old mytouch 3G.
I agree with the OP that I will never go with anything but an HTC phone from this point forward.
The funny thing about it is that Android advocates are always talking about specs and iPhone people are always harping on user experience because their phones are generally out-speced by the latest Android phones. I hate to say it but the MT4G sort of proves the Apple people right. Other phones that were released at the same time as the MT4G had better specs and even better testing scores but I can say from first hand experience that the MyTouch out performs most of them for everyday use, even with the stock rom installed.

So there's a guy who will give me a new sealed G2X and $100 for my sensation now I had the g2x before and before it got the ota 2.3.3 but the only reason i would be reason I would be trading is for the pure speed of the g2x because let's be real our sensation is slow I mean I have full s-off and custom ROM with no sense and my quadrant still blows Mabey 1800 to 2100 how is that ? Please tell me thats not for long and its only because the roms suck right now on the sensation? So there you have it i love everything else about the sensation specs are better then the g2x but the speed will have you think otherwise Should i trade or wait?

I have the G2X and no it doesn't blow the Sensation out of the water. First off, before I removed Sense, the Sensation has always opened apps and interacted with apps faster than the G2X. It also loads Google Maps faster as you scroll through the map. Browsing has always been smoother while scrolling through the pages and the two games I play the most, run smoother on the Sensation. Really the only thing the G2X was faster at was the UI but now that I am using ADW with Sense removed, my Sensation us as fast as my G2X. If you want, I can show you a video of how fast my Sensation is.
I care more about real life experience rather than what some beanchmark is telling me. Quite frankly, I don't even believe most of these benchmarks as I don't think there using our asynchronous processor correctly.

Lol, take it from me. DO NOT GET THE G2x. Even Tmobile and LG are trying to wash their hands off it right now. If it does get an update or the so called update in few weeks, it will most likely be the last. I seriously doubt they will be able to fix ALL the problems. I was lucky enough to get exchange my G2x for Sensation and so far it has worked right. The one thing that didn't work for me and i needed was BT A2DP. The random reboot i could deal with but imagine you are talking to someone and bam, your phone is rebooting. You wake up the the sound of your phone rebooting .... Please read up on the G2x forum and don't say we didn't warn you.
PS: Make sure if you do get it that the 14days grace period is valid and go from there.

It should record 1080p at 30fps in well lit situations. Doesn't do so well in situations with no light.
I'm definitely disappointed with the sensation 4g. It lags a lot in my opinion. While sense is a beautiful UI, it is just to heavy. I bought this phone off contract ( 549.99 Plus tax) thinking this would be it. The fast phone that I have been waiting for and I swore to myself to not buy another samsung phone but looks like I'm gonna get the Hercules or whatever galaxy s 2 is coming to tmobile. At the end of the day you have to see what's best for you. I honnestly do not care about the ahs display, its very nice don't get me wrong, but I rather have the wvga phone that is just smoother on a day to day basis. Iam almost certain that a lot of people are a bit disappointed with the sensation. The truth is it underwhelms. Come on 1.2 GHz dual core and it lags?
It lags? Haven't noticed it really. Been using Leedroid since day one (yesterday) and adw launcher.
The o2x is a disappointment like all lg phones. They should just stick to something they are good at like televisions.
On paper it's great but software is trash.

IMO the sensation really isn't anything special. The screen on it sucks and its not that fast for it being a dual core phone. I played with the epic touch gs2 yesterday....and now that's a phone to drool over. That right now is the only phone out that's worth an upgrade from the mt4g. Again this is just my opinion.

I've heard some bad things about the Sensation, but I think the sluggish speed is caused by the async Snapdragon that Qualcomm made. Both CPUs won't be on unless they're both needed and I'm guessing that doesn't work really good in Gingerbread, so perhaps on 1 core is active. When the Exynos or Tegra 2 the cores are both on all the time, so they should be faster, although they still clock up and down as normal. The screen in lacking, but it's no S/Amoled or IPS or Retina. HTC doesn't really produce nicer screens like the competition, they use S-LCD or LCD in their phones, not sure if they have any other tech ATM.
Well, I can agree on this. I've never been a fan of MyTouch models, but T-Mo forced me. I've been from a T-Mo G1 (Dream), to a T-Mo G2 (Desire Z), then to a samsung Galaxy S 4g and when it got stolen, the assurant would only leave me with a MyTouch 4g. Really can't compare the screen, but hey, I'm more than pleased. I'm quite impressed this phone doesn't have that much of a great feedback from T-Mo. :/ Oh well.
Yeah I've had a bunch, came from an epic and I have to say this phone is good stock. Unity is boss though. Omfg.
Edit: one other thing... This community is so chilled and friendly compared to the previous ones I have been a part of. Thank you people...

Totally happier with this one. SGS4G relied TOO MUCH on the screen~ and it was just annoying sometimes. I got used to physical buttons because of my last phones, so I felt like using an iPhone not an Android. And besides, the SGS4G's front facing camera was just sad.

Sorry was it hard for you to comprehend?
DhD = Desire HD (GSM)
TB = Thunderbolt (CDMA)
2GS = Second Generation Spandragon
So technically Inspire HD (GSM-US) is equivalent of Desire HD (GSM-EU). Since we real pro die hard SmartPhone user know HTC owns Moto and SamSUX, so that's another subject of its own.
Now the point I was making is as you being home user you yourself do not need or dual core mCPU yet. So MT4G is same spec as Thunderbolt (yes I'm aware of the screen and nand diff). Thus last of its kind not failed attempt to upgrade us to dual core when Android framework so far utilizing only cpu0 as cpu1 thread is most not used as OS and App is not using it yet.

Most likely, never had the chance to check. The phone got stolen a month after bought so I could barely play around with it. It's not usual of me to root a phone the same day I get it; I stay with root for a few days, and in this case, a month. Now with the MT4G, no way I was gonna stay with stock for a month, no way. |: hahaha.
Hi guys, I've move to the Sensation its nice and all,but mytouch4G seems better and faster to be honest I miss my mytouch4G its a great phone. I'm thinking of selling this Sensation and get HTC Amazed or SGII. But I love Sense but the speakers in HTC sux,gonna be a hard decision.

Traded my MT4G for a G2x as well. I like it better.
So far the G2x has better build quality, better screen, external speakers are wayyyy better, and the Tegra proc is infinitely better than the Snap. Annoyed me when my MT4G would get hot after just some light web browsing. The G2x never gets hot. Plus, games are way smoother on this thing.
Overall, I loved my MT4G, and always will. But the G2x is a decent upgrade. Especially since you got it cheap.

I have loved the development on this phone and have grown fond of the work of certain devs, (faux123, team royal, and TDJ). after seeing that tdj moved to the SGS2, it almost made me want to throw my amaze on craigslist, although i saw Faux wich made me happy ha. anyways i hope i see development on that phone as good as the mt4g was/has been.

Faux123 has an amaze but there is no s-off so no roms for s-on devices. Tdj and royalknight aka darkside dev team went to the sgs2. Your best bet is the amaze if you don't mind waiting for s-off

Not true. For the amaze you don't need s-off. All you need is an unlocked bootloader. I bought my girl the amaze because her mt4g broke. Unfortunately it came s-on (some people will be lucky enough and have s-off already when when receiving their amaze) so the same week I bought her the phone, I unlocked the bootloader. Its almost the same as s-off. I was able to grant her permroot and she can even flash custom roms and kernels. I already debloated her amaze and added a custom battery, tether and have setcpu running on it to get better battery life.
At this moment I'm researching on which custom rom is best for her so I can flash.
So if you lurk the amaze forum you'll see they have a few selection on custom roms, kernels and mods.

I saw different pics of the ville and don't know which ones are the actual pics for it. One of them looked a lot like the galaxy nexus and the other one just looked like crap.
And how did you guys find out about this phone? This is the first time i've heard of it.
Yea.I bought my amaze off contract so when my contract is up for renewal ill sell the amaze and get the next best thing in Q4 of this year...that's when all the best stuff comes out anyways

where'd you buy yours and how much? Just wondering cause I don't think phones are worth half a grand.
Just got the amaze today.basically a larger mytouch4g.Although it has a higher screen resolution,there isn't that great a difference from the mytouch.the camera is better no doubt.actually,its quite good for a camera.build is solid,yet remains light to the touch.
Sense 3.0 is so much smoother than any sense rom.
its abeautiful phone.
Recently got and unlocked a Sammy infuse.it has a nice Tom selection,which are high quality roms (Zeus) thanks dman,my daughter loves it.
I thought I'd prefer the amaze,but provably should have tried the sgs2.
Amaze is very good though!
Edit:yeah,that extra tenth of an inch on the Samsung phones makes a difference.atleast with the Zeus rom ,the infuse is kickass and so much smoother than any mytouch rom. Yet I made my choice.
Not dissatisfied,but miss that butter from the Sammy.

I will get a Sensation tomorrow after work it is a warranty exchange..has anyone else come from the MT4G, how would you compare it to the Sensation?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
My mom has a mytouch4g... holy hell, I want to kill it with fire. Beat it with a bat, and then put it in a blender. I seriously hate the Mytouch 4G. The sensation is a Bugatti, and the MT4G is a 94 Honda Civic with no v-tec and a super huge muffler that kills all its power..
The biggest thing I noticed on the negative side when I switched from the MT4G to the Sensation was the rounded back of the Sensation.
You can't just lay it on your desk or a table and type on it. It wobbles all over the place. You have to hold it. The MT4G has a flat back so you could pound on it and it wouldn't wobble. Made it really easy to type while it was sitting on the table.
However....the bigger screen is really nice. It's much more vibrant too.
The first day you'll feel like you're holding a tablet because of the size difference. But you get used to that pretty quick.
The only thing I miss from the change is the trackpad wake and dedicated camera button

i had a MT4G before, and compare to Sensation: honestly, i don't feel the sensation is much superior than the MT4G.Even with dual core processor, there is not much different in term of speed. Not like you move from a Camry to a Lamborghini.Instead, you move to an Avalon ^^. The only thing different is the screen size :4.3 inches vs 3.8 inches. And i also miss AOPS roms and MIUI roms alot. MT4G have a great roms collection than Sensation. Overall, Sensation is till a good phone, but you wouldn't expect to much in it.

Are you seriously telling somebody that there are no good custom roms for the sensation??? WTF??
I still have a MT4G and a Sensation, and will switch between the 2. The Sensation has a larger and better screen, 8 MB Camera w/ 1080p Camcorder, and a likely quicker path to ICS, all pluses.
The MT4G had great build quality, dedicated buttons including camera button and slightly better cell reception. I personally think the antennas built into the rear Sensation cover is a defective design; much prefer the MT4G design.
For many other things, like battery life, speed of use with or without Sense, lack of lag, built in memory, 4g speeds, browsing, etc., the devices are very similar if not about the same. Dual core in the Sensation is nice, but on both of my devices I only OC to about 1.2 ghz and they both (with the right GB rom) have the same smoothness and similar benchmarks. Sensation is just like a slightly newer brother to the MT4G IMO.
I miss...
Camera button.
Cm7-so much!
More responsive touch screen when typing.
That's about it.
You will like...
Better camera.
Better/larger/sharper images.
Ics roms.
OK gingerbread roms.honestly,I liked tdj's/royal knights sense 3.5 better than any on sensation,but they are good here too.
Better 3g4g connectivity its faster.
Is it worth upgrading too instead of sgs2? No.Not really.
However,my sgs2 is in the drawer,so,its a matter of preference.I'm just using this one to flash roms.
You will like the phone.but if you can return for sgs2 you will most likely enjoy that one more!

Couldn't agree more about the battery life.
Development is on par I'd say considering the future development and official ICS coming. MIUI is going to officially support the sensation, win.
Also, camera button.

Thanks for the input guys, I do like the idea of the Sensation getting the ICS update in March so they say...so is it just as easy to root as the MT4G? I may wait to root until after ICS comes to the phone but then again I may not?

I used to have a MT4G and now I'm on Sensation and I absolutely love both phones.
I was very satisfied with the myTouch only AFTER I rooted it and installed CyanogenMod, overclocked it a bit, it went very fast.
I've had the Sensation since it came out! I love this phone, really powerful, looks great, has an amazing camera and screen. You won't be disappointed.
ROOT it of course stock HTC ROM sucks doodooballs.

Just curious, but which devs did we have who could seriously code? I guess Roman and maybe xboarder, but who else? Both of their roms didn't catch fire around here until they had all but left.
The kernel devs don't count as lost until ics sources are out and they don't come back lol.
