Nexus S is not available through AT&T.
MRQuad, what's the timeframe for you to make a decision? If you want Android on AT&T, there isn't too much at this moment, but the offerings should get better as we get into 2011.

I would recommend wait for 2 more months. Good phones are lined up for release. But this would be feasible only if u have the option to wait, and picking the phone isn't due immediately.
Anything but samsung.
Assuming you want to stay with at&t. Wait and get the Atrix.
That is if you have the option to wait.

Why not research phones you are interested in and decide from there. You don't need people on the internet to make suggestions for you. Would you ask random strangers what car you should buy?

He should read the forums and see what issues to expect.
+1 on the Atrix
or if you can hold off 4-6 months i would think we will start to see some dual cores with 2.3 out of the box
Atrix.
Or, if you absolutely have to get one now, get a Nexus One.
Hey guys, thanks for the honest response.. Appreciate it very much!
actually, i have the option to replace my fone for 3yrs. As long as there is faulty on it.. Kinda insurance thingy for my fone, but i paid extra for it.. The sales guy says i can change it as long as it's the same provider.. Im from canada by the way.
Ican tell there is faulty on my fone.. Do you think i should wait for two years and replace the fone with a new one?
Thanks again!

The Moto Triumph will be released here in the US on July 19th and a forum would be awesome. I started this topic over in the Android Hacking section without realizing that this was where it needed to be. About 5 of us over in the other section signed the petition. Hopefully we have more luck here. I predict a lot of themes and roms for this device will surface. It is thought to be a rebadged Huawei Ideos X6, so it might be easier to develop for than other Moto phones.

Coming from a galaxy s, the screen type will be drastically different but paying 25 a month instead of 73 is worth it!

Yes sir radio Shack will have it for sure. I'm already thinking of rooting this phone with super one click root lol
Definitely, need a section here. It's the first high end phone with Virgin Mobile and it will attract a lot of users.
I agree, please create a new forum section for the triumph.
I think the fact that when you search for this device on google, this thread comes up, will help us get our subforum. People are going to love messing with this phone.

+1 I'll buy this phone as soon as I see it in stores. Would love to root it and mess around with it!
+1 I too would like too see this forum and Motorola Photon 4G as well.
Im sure the photon will be getting a subforum in due time. Im campaigning for the Triumph to get one because I do not want it to be overlooked because it is a prepaid device.

I hope that best buy price matches.

This is the next phone I'll be getting, i hope the community really gets behind it.
Based on the response here, at HoFo and PrepaidAndroid- I can see this phone having a thriving community.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I'm keeping an eye on this phone. Rumor at HoFo was that Virgin was going up to $35 a month, but haven't seen any dates.
I really liked the Optimus V, and plan to move to Virgin sometime soon. A Triumph would be nice. Hopefully some 'slickdeals' happen on it soon.

one word..just awesome !
Let's hope we don't get it. $100 is way better than firmware we've already got running.

Very Nice! Although what it does not say is how long the implementation will take. By that time most everyone here will have most likely traded in their A2 for a Galaxy SIII. Or something more powerful. Look at how long ICS is taking to hit the US A2.
If we don't get JB the $100 offer will be useless to me unless Motorola makes the next Nexus device.
I wonder if they are going to skip ICS and go straight to JB (att version)? May this be what's holding up the ICS soak?

I was wondering the same thing. It'll be interesting to see if a soak test starts in the very near future and what kind of build the test is for.

Keep in mind folks, as far as the "developing options" goes, I doubt that means unlocking the bootloader.
We already have a "development options" tab in our leak, remember? That may be why it's on the leak, because Moto was testing it before it was released.
This could be nice. But... if they expect to get the updates out by the end of the year, they ought to start kicking a** instead of dragging it. I'm hopeful.

Just another excuse to delay any form of updates.
The $100 credit will more than likely only be for MOTO products...
Wow. Assuming that we didn't end up with jellybean, I would take my $100 credit and buy a new unlocked moto phone as soon as it comes out, sell it on eBay, and put the $100 difference in the BL unlock bounty
The catch is the 100 dollar credit goes to another crappy phone from moto

Their phones are top notch, but they're locked, which is supposedly gonna change, so I'd take a hundred bucks towards a new Motorola if its unlocked, if not my girlfriend can have it. I'm personally one of the (what seems like) very few people who loves Motorola phones. Samsungs feel too cheap, and Sense causes lag.
Sent from my MB865 running CM10
yup true
its just that moto phones are locked or else they would have been far superior than any phone out there given their price tag

Yeah, that's what kills the phones for me. I'd take an unlocked moto phone any day. I did read somewhere that the hundred dollar credit would only be toward select phones though. So who's to say they won't choose locked phones

ics still isnt even in testing phase... by this rate we would get JB by mid-2013 the earliest possible.
add to that, if you bought your phone on ebay, or outside usa, the $100 credit is good for toilet paper.
Thats a great news for the ATRIX 2 users

I'll believe it when I see it. Motorola is going to have to step it up considerably for me to even entertain the thought of purchasing another Moto phone.

OTA has released. A guy here from Cambodia got it. Only a matter of time for rest of the SEA region. So ICS is past the testing phase.

Probably talking about the US/NA region. The soak hasn't even begun yet.
OT: Pretty sure the $100 credit is only for the new Razr phones. Someone on the moto forums posted the transcript.

We will get the 100 dollar upgrade toward a RAZR maxx HD.
Article here:

BTW, I am not recommending or condoning this, just sharing. I might do it just to see what the RAZR maxx HD is like but, we will see.
The rebate program is a joke. I own three eligible phones but the offer is only valid in the USA.

Read the article again, it says that it is only in the us right now but, they will be expanding it to other areas soon.
Isn't the RAZR Maxx HD a Verizon phone only?

You can always get the Atrix HD

Well this a good place to cross-link threads: the Support My Moto Campaign - I see a few of us have already been over in that thread... not sure what we will really get out of this, but it's a good consolidated effort I suppose.
And, what you all talking 'bout? We already got some jelly beans for our phone (cm10 - pretty good start, so far) - and, I am pretty optimistic that we will get some other flavors of JB too.. so, I guess the news is not so disappointing.
On the other hand, I will be taking advantage of Moto in any way I can, so gimme that 100 virtual bucks!
Probably use it for my wife's A2 - she don't need unlocked bootloaders - heck, she wants me to put her back on GB after a week of ICS
Moto seems to make good quality phones/handsets.. but I will most likely move on to another manufacturer and keep my A2 as a backup.
Edit: We are on that list, but the plain ol' RAZR (xt910/912) is not?!? That's just wrong...
So is Motorola gonna pay for me to switch from at&t to Verizon? Otherwise that means nothing to the at&t crowd...

Yea man. The best way to do it, if you WANT a phone, save up the money and pay what you have to. Contracts get way out of hand when it comes to the small things. I'm currently tied down myself, but not for much longer. I'll most likely keep the A2 as a back up though since its still a very good piece of hardware AND I've grown quite fond of my A2 community (good people). And, honestly, I may or may not go with another Moto phone. It just all depends.
But all in all, this whole deal with Moto really doesn't bother me as bad as others are bothered. I mean come on, this phone is the shiz, and Moto really does make great phones. Its just from a developers point of view where things get sour.
Yes I went off topic a bit, but sometimes its needed for others to read and relate to.

Hey guys. It's sad for me to say, but I just sold my One X tonight. Someone offered me a price I couldn't refuse. I just bought a Galaxy Note 10.1 so I may also get a Samsung phone to match.
I will miss this community dearly! Like I said in the 'Introduce Yourself' thread, this has been the best experience I've had on XDA since I joined. I hope you guys get JB soon. The wait was tough. If someone wants access to the files of the theme I made a while back I'd be glad to hand it over.
Take care guys!
P.S. I usually don't keep a specific phone for too long. I end up getting bored with it no matter how much development there is. It's just that there's so much different tech out there that I try to use as much of it as I can. Maybe it's my OCD, but I think it's just my love for technology lol.
