The Atrix can suck on my 4.3 inch INSPIRE 4G! If only the Atrix could get custom kernels... *By the way this is not a hate thread or anything as I believe both phones are awesome*

Android Revolution 4G with Buzz 1.6ghz kernel

haha amazing

I used both for a week and ended up keeping the inspire. My issue was mostly blur and the smaller screen size. It was also one of the most plasticky phones I have ever held.

yea I thought atrix was gonna be all that and a bag of potato chips but was a let down whe felt it in hand next to my captivate as it has same size screen everything on screen looked smaller. and way plasticy feel which feels cheap to me, why put that kinda hardware into a phone only to neglect outside not only that they made accessories of better quality then the phone itself.
And very nice on those scores dude. How stable is it running with that setup?

It's actually really stable. Just a huge battery killer, but the Inspire 4G has bad battery life anyways. I think the Android Revolution rom helps out a lot for the battery though, especially when underclocking. For the past couple of hours I've tried out 880mhz and it's ultra smooth and it seems to be getting great battery

Amen to Android revolution. I'm running the the leeDroid Kernel though and have it at the stock 1ghz and my up time right now is right around 15 hours and I'm at 51% battery with heavy use. (heavy use meaning I go through 100-150 MB a day)

IT'S SHEP!!!!!! ZOMG! Man lots of captivaters popping up here. Good to see

Wow that is xoom overclocked score! Good to see shep here. Now we just need to convert mike and DG.

My Atrix went back also. Just didn't live up to the hype other than speed, which isn't enough of a difference anyhow.
Inspire 4g is a MUCH more polished, and enjoyable to use.

No hate with the Inspire
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

i am really happy that i didnt go with the atrix like i initially wanted to. i didnt even bother with looking at it. i didnt want to cheat on HTC. they currently own the market as far as android devices go, and theyre great as far as releasing code goes.

I posted a benchmark of about 2925 on Android Forums in response to someone saying that the Inspire would be irrelevant once the Atrix was updated to take advantage of the dual core processor. The excuses were it was either a fake pic, not an Inspire, or a bad program.

do you see the HUGE 0.23" difference?

of course galaxy s2 with dual core is alot more snappier, but infuse performance is acceptable. i'm sure pretty soon we able to overclock infuse to 1.8G !

How has your battery life been so far? Mine hasn't been so good, hoping the battery just needs a few cycling periods.
I am using bolphin hd browser, stock browser was very laggy for some reason. Haven't tried gps yet.
Sent from my huge infuse (ladies does size matter)

Battery has been soso. With every android phone I've owned (atrix inspire g1 g2 captivate) the battery life was weird the first few days... just give it time... so far I'm about 9hrs in with 33% left. Display turned to 50%, 1.5 hours of screen on time consuming 92% of bbattery. Pretty good for a first day I think

not a chance. some hummingbirds only go to 1300, others 1600, unless samsung was holding out the better units for faster clocked phones i dont think we will get a great deal of overclock out of it. the snapdragons are built on qualcoms own core. though the instructions are both cortex a8 and they are both 45nm arcitecture the snapdragon is much more overclockable as far as i can tell, there is no reason to expect 1.8 ghz. samsung may even be using snapdragons in the sgs2mini and sgs+ to get 1.4ghz reliably

I see it, but that increase also reduces sharpness. I previously rocked a Captivate and now have an Inspire. I went and played with an Infuse the other day and I would consider it noticeably less sharp than the Inspire. Screen size is great, but I'm thinking 4.5 inches is a bit much for 480x800 resolution. If this guy had Gingerbread and/or TouchWiz 4 I would probably go for it, but at this point it seems like more of a sidegrade from any of AT&T's other top Android phones.

Has anyone played with a screen density changer yet?

I get the feeling donations to devs are exactly what's going to be needed to get development on the Infuse going. Time for bounty threads! (just kidding ) I'm in the same boat as GTG. I'd be happy to bring MattedBlues to the Infuse but I'd need donations to get the device.

well if you have a i9000 launcher that has 5x5 homescreens send me the link and ill try it. will your launchers work on odexed roms? or do i need to wait for a deodexed rom? for me the app drawer gives me the fealing that im holding one of those over sized phones or remote controls that they make for blind old people. i need smaller icons or it will drive me crazy!

Yea it's on android central too. Kind of makes sense since we got the infuse which is almost like the gs2 sans dual core etc. Glad I got this phone as well. It is the best phone I've had so far. I absolutely hate physical keyboards on phones now. No reason to add that crap. People need to move on lol. Now att will have two good phones for people to choose at least I guess. Good thing I didn't hold my breath I thought it would be just like the original but it appears I'm wrong lol.

Damn, now I'm regretting not waiting for the Attain.
The Infuse is the first device with a softkeyboard I could consider tolerable... But that's it - tolerable. It still can't come close to my Tilt2.

This makes me giddy like a small child in a candy store. You can keep the keyboard and dual core, I'm fine with my 4.5 inch screen and super thin design. I don't know how many times people have picked up my phone and been wowed by this form factor.
Plus, who needs dual core anyways? There isn't any lag on my infuse to begin with, and now that gb is about to drop, I'm sure whatever the devs come up with will keep me more than satisfied with how well my phone performs.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App

WOW!......How can Samsung ATT justify this? SGSII is a widely anticipated phone all over the world. It is very popular over seas. So based on that they change it last minute???? Not the specs but to a slider? This makes ZERO sense. Unless Samsung was forced to change it through lawsuits by apple, or ATT being Apple's b**ch. Why would you change a device that everyone was expecting and anticipating. Unless Samsung has another device ready to launch soon, I do not get it. It would be one thing if it was always going to be a slider, but you just added thickness to a device that nowdays the thinner the more popular. When I first got a soft keyboard device I hated it, but now I am much faster than I ever was on a hard keyboard. You are also adding the breakable parts factor. I just don't understand this at all.

Makes perfect sense... The only keyboard smartphone they have is the LG Quantum... Also differentiates it from the Infuse.
I must say that the keyboard has me more interested.

i was kinda thinking the addition of an extra core, more memory and official Gingerbread would be enough differentiation?
i've never been a fan of flip/slide phones.. with my experience, the more moving parts it has, the more susceptible it is to wear and ultimately breaking.

well, dont expect it to be like your tilt2. expect it to be like the samsung epic on sprint, like a captivate with a slide out keyboard, pretty pathetic for a hardware keyboard.

If you guys don't want the keyboard, just get an unlocked GSII from newegg. It works on AT&T. We have options.

Im sorry but I am so down to get this phone. i am actually gonna get this phone.

It all depends on how thick it is. If it is nice and slim, I will give it a shot. I could see using a keyboard some times.

Also I would check T-mobile's version. Aren't T-mobile's newest phones shipping with the ability to work on AT&T's network because of the buyout? I thought I heard that a few times....

Any Captivate Devs Upgrading to ATT One X?

Oh man I'm having a really hard time deciding between the 1X and the S3. I bought my Captivate at launch 2 years ago so my contract is just about up. Been doing a ton of reading. Looks like the GS3, if the recent announcement is correct will be based on a exynos 4412 design. Basically a quad A9 version of the S2 and not much practical benefit with the same gpu and all. On the other hand, the 1X will be a dual-core cortex A15-based Krait design which is much more powerful and more efficient. On the other hand, the S3 will have that fancy new samoled display, but I hear the 1X is something to behold and currently the best display on the market. The white X looks stunning as well but if this pick of the S3 is correct....http://www.stuff-review.com/2012-04/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-leaked-shot/ it might just sway me.

If I'm not mistaken DesignGears is buying the One X.

Chances are I'm going for the One X when my contract is up in May. I actually got to play with one in my local AT&T store yesterday because it wasn't busy and the workers had their pre release out playing with it. I hate how large the phones have got, but for a 4.7" 720p display, it fits so well in the hand, and it amazingly fast. The camera shutter is as fast as everyone claims and transitions are nothing for it. It didn't have a SIM card in it and as much as I wanted to keep playing with it I eventually gave it back to them (they was standing pretty heavily over me while I held it, understandably).

That is VERY lame indeed. For a minute I was getting excited about the phone but damn..no removable battery and no microSD..what are companies thinking? You need to make it 32GB at least for me to consider it.
Anyways...I am let down by the GS3 as well if it ends up being as last reported...but if Glitch and Six move to it then I will move too
Guess I am keeping good old Captivate for a bit longer

Several of us that were using the Infuse are there.

I personally have gone with the Nexus 4 (Optimus G's brother) not only because i love the look of it but also because of all the developing that's going on with it currently. I can't speak about the OG development but what I've been in terms of development for the N4 is incredible.

Mostly the design. I've had my fun with a brick looking phone (Infuse). You don't really appreciate the curves until you hold it in your hand and get a feel for it. The glass also is curved at the edges like the HTC One and makes swiping feel very nice. The etched back glass looks incredible in the right lighting too. Overall the phone is just simply sexy. The price is absolutely unbeatable and being the first to get updates is really nice too although I'll be going the custom route which this phone as at least 10 different ROMs already.

N4 has 3, 4 & 5 and with a different kernel you can increase the battery life pretty well though it will never be easily removable.

I would support the choice of the Nexus 4. Most bang-for-the-buck Android device since ever imo.
If money isn't that much of an issue, I would definitely look to the HTC One for beauty or maybe the SIV since there will almost definitely be a huge following for that phone..

The HTC one is sexy but the note is the one I've been eye balling since its introduction

I wouldn't suggest it....HTC is terrible with development. They have crap source...and even had a DMCA takedown on the HTC msn8660 official cyanogenmod source. Not to mention you not only have to unlock the bootloader but also s-off the device if you wanna be able to flash roms away from a computer. HTC one x had a big problem with achieving s-off for a couple months too....
HTC one looks good as do most htcs, but if you want dome aosp deving its def not the device to go for IMHO
Btw, long time no talk guys I'm still trying to decide on my next device as I'm due for an upgrade as well...

I'm personally leaning towards the SIV... about the same size as the Infuse, except a 5 inch screen+quad core+2gb ram....

I love my infuse but upgrade time came about two weeks ago and I went for the note2 and its awesome!!!! once you start using it you really appreciate the size of the screen it just makes doing everyday things on the phone easier and more enjoyable. I was also on the fence about waiting for the s4 but I went for the bigger screen and battery

I'm up for upgrade too and was looking at the HTC phones. I like the solid metal feel, but I guess I should reconsider. What would you recommend especially regarding development friendliness? (Samsung? LG? I know the Nexus is great for that) I'm not opposed to waiting for a while. I am extremely content with the active and awesome development work on here.
Is the large size of the Note 2 inconvenient at all? My beloved Infuse already takes up most of my pocket

I'll likely get a nexus4 or an iPhone. I'm tired of waiting for 3rd parties to support devices when the motivation is to make you buy a new one.
My wife has an atrix 4g, and still on stock 2.3. It's buggy to say the least.
I have a nexus 7, and didn't even feel the need to root it until recently. Stock actually works, and doesn't leave you wanting much more.
Sure, our infuses still work. We can flash firmware beyond 2.3, but the lack of official support means that some things are broken and will never be fixed... HDMI, 720p, etc.

Besides a nexus...Samsung seems to be the best, although I've read good things about Sony as well...

Been debating getting the N2 for a while.. Just not sure if I want to get it 5 months into its life. But honestly, compared to the GS4, the only thing really better to me at least is the 1080p display which is more of just a number selling point almost. Been out of contract for like 3 months now and getting ready to pull the trigger...

Blackberry Z10 or Q10.
I was playing with the BB Z10 the other day and it looks like they have a winner on their hands.
