nexus to mt4g - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So no more annoying screen locking or screen resets with mt4g? And how many have made the switch and feel it's worth it?

I came from a Nexus and I'm happy. I haven't had any screen problems with this phone like I had with my Nexus One, the multi-touch actually works correctly and I'm kinda digging the mySense UI.

I love my n1, but this phones hardware is just better

I kinda miss the vanilla Android but that's about it. Oh yeah the colour trackball ... the pad is just dumb

What's with making all these android phones with huge screens? The aria fits nicely in my pocket albeit the screen would be nicer at 3.5 or 3.7in. But, anything above 4in seems retardedly too big for a mobile device. Remember, this is something that people love to put in their pockets and hold up to their head when talking. I don't want a brick!
Lol @ mini rant.

Trading my g2

Finna get a hd7 or mytouch 4g,I love this phone,but I must move on.help guys..no meanies...only good opinions.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I don't get what you're asking? Are you asking the G2 forum for suggestions on phones that are comparable that are gonna trade with you?
If so, you've given us absolutely 0 information about how you want to use the phone or what features you're looking for...
And on top of that, I don't think you're going to find many people in the G2 Forum who think higher of a different device.

If I were you stick with this phone. I have an hd7 and don't use it so I sold it. Windows phones are just straight up boring. Mytouch 4g. Only real diffrence is screen is little bit biigger and no keyboard

Well I'm one of those people that likes to have different phones every now and then,so its either the hd7 or the mytocuh 4g,any suggestions will be appreciated.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Haha I see. From my personal experince with the HD7 it was a good phone but your limited on what you can do, for example the market is all most all paid apps. As for the mytouch 4g there's no reall diffrence since both are android platform but it uses modified sense ui by t-mobile. (I like stock sense since it has more options.)

You want newer hardware or software? I'm running evil's G2-4G rom. It's the mt4g rom running on a G2.

Hardware wise,new phone,a hand with a new device.

Get the mt4g. I have both g2 and mt4g. Both are fast. Both are nce.
I use my g2 for my day to day browsing emailing gaming hacking etc.
Mt4g is the work phone. Rooted running latest iced glacier with mysense uninstalled and adw with honey comb theme. Its nice
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Dont get a MT4G its too similar to a G2, hardware wise. My recommendation is get a Nexus S, if you want to try something different.
HD7 is a windows phone and those are just boring. I agree something different and good would be the nexus S. If not then just go with the mytouch 4G.
Id wait a bit for something else to be released. Moving on from the G2 to something else right now is not really much different. If u insist, get the mt4g. I won't buy a windows phone too locked down and they are pigs.

Well guys I decided to go with a mytouch 4g, brand new deal.traded the g2 for a hd7.played with it fire a few days, and got bored and traded that for a mytouch 4g..

How are you liking your mt4g? I am thinking of doing the same thing. I prefer the G2 but I want/need an ffc. Between voice input and Swype I do not think I need the physical keyboard as much anymore.
G2 has 512mb ram
Mt4g has 768mb ram

What about the incredible S? Seems like a better mt4g

Should I trade in my G2 for a Nexus S

Hello,
I'm trying to decide if I should get a Nexus S while there on sale and just terminate my G2 line and sell it on Craigslist. Would this work or would T-Mobile catch on and charge MD or something also what do you thinking about the Nexus S compared to the G2 I mean j like the keyboard but I do type faster on the on screen Keyboard and I really only like the feel of it irk what do you guys think

I got tired of the bulk of the G2, and I hardly ever used the keyboard. Swype deprecated it.
I am much happier now.

when I saw leaked pics of the G2, I was like this is gonna be my new phone. Then I checked it out in person and was turned off by its bulk and clumsy hinge. It didn't feel smooth sliding out the keyboard..had to use 2 hands instead of 1. Anyways, good thing I waited for the Nexus and I love it! So my answer is YES.
Absolutely. You get true stock and a much faster and sleeker device. I thought about the G2 when moving to T-Mobile. So glad I got my Nexus S .

This here. I had random signal loss a lot.
Dude definitely get the nexus s. If you want a new experience.
I would say as long as you have an android phone, n not an iphone your golden,
Personally, I have my G2 running CyanogenMod 6.1.1 with setcpu (overclocked when battery full to 1ghz and as the battery gets lower, I have it slowly clock down), and juicesaver (this kills having data on when the screen is off but it still alows googlevoicetexts to come through etc.) Also, memory AND battery expansions make this a good solid phone.
I also have the MT4G modded n such.
BUT,***** the nexus s is very sleek, the best samsung has put out so far imo. It has a fast proccesor, nfc, amoled, and gingerbread, off the batt to startt with, if you mod it, it just gets better.
Get and use what makes you happy, but just don't bite the apple. If you have had your G2 long enougj and want a new experience and get a good sale on your G2, go for it.

T-Mobile doesn't care if you change your phone when you're in a 2year contract with a phone. You just don't get the 2-year discount.
It'll take a few days to get used to using a virtual keyboard than a physical but once you get used to it. You'll feel that physical keyboards are just a waste of space.

I traded my g2 for the nexus. Haven't looked back since. once you root it everything else is a no brainer. It beats out close to all phones on the market.

I started my android ownership with a G1 because it was cheap, and there was a ton I could do to a $80 phone.
Before that I had an HTC Diamond for cost and "crap to play with" factor.
The Touch Pro just turned me off for it's bulk and subjective feel.
The G1 had some of the same issues, but I knew if this experiment worked I'd go for the Nexus S.
In between getting the G1, and later buying a Nexus S, I just found too much of the lingering turnoffs about the Touch Pro/G1 when I checked out the G2 as a cheaper alternative to the 2x cost Nexus S.
A guy I work with can't stand bar phones and what I like about the nexus S in general. He's always liked his TP2, G1, blackberries, Droid pos with keyboard.
Find a "good" Nexus S and just be happy, if that's what you subjectively "like".

Nexus 3... by HTC? Looks like a possibility!

+1, HTC >>>>>>>>>>>> LG
And what? You sure it isn't an iphone crap in that picture?
I hope so, and I like that image. No buttons, truly tablet convergence ice cream sandwich.
Hopefully the internals are something exciting like that N1 had for its time.
Going off my HTC experience the fewer buttons the better...
i prefer HTC/Moto
No trackball..... Trackball notification alerts are the best. Imagine an N1 with a 4" screen dual core, front camera, 4g and a trackball. That s my ideal N1 replacement.

i like the buttons but cheers to htc!
I've had the N1 now NS. And a Hero and EVO in between. While I love the build quality (feel) and the development for HTC devices, I had nothing but hardware problems with all of them. Both the T-Mo and Sprint versions of the NS have been flawless, so I'm kind of torn if I would upgrade to the N3...

Didn't Andy Rubin said that Nexus 3 will be launched this summer ?
was wanting to see it working with sony or motorola
I think for a prototype it looks awesome. I love htc and think it'll be great. It would be interesting though to see what lg comes up with...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
hasn't the nexus series always been sim-lock free?
I wanna see lg and sony ericsson entries as well. I'm just a bit disappointed with htcs design for right now. No capacitive buttons are just fine. But please dammit, listen like you've listened on the boot loader. Put in the trackballs as they have never been a problem but a compliment.

Sensation is horrible

Ive tested my dads sensation and it was very good the first few days. After about a week or so it lagged and became unresponsive. Whdn I ever I tried to flick the screen for tye corossal tye screen didnt move it all, it sometimes just moves a little and goes back. The lockscreen ring becomes unresponsive. When I pick it up it bounces back down. I know this a vibrant, but I just had to say it.

The phone is pretty good, but after a week it slows down and becomes unresponsive drastically. There are barely a few third party apps installed on it.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Ive just tried to use the phone app and after I type in a number it took a while for the screen to respond to it.
I ve had absolutely no problems with it at all.. I did learn to turn fastboot off because if you dont, when you power down your phone, its like its in hibernate instead of actually turning off. I think this is the majority of peoples problem with this phone.
I guess you should root and install custom ROM then use it for a week.

cmon, is it really that bad after a week with those specs? i know its the first batch of phones and all. maybe a simple reboot may help once in awhile but i can't imagine all the phones being unresponsive after minimal use.
No problems here either ;-)

No problems with my Sensation.
No problems with my Sensation. It is super fast. You may want to try turning off fast boot and rebooting the phone. I've had it since day 1 that has been available and has been super fast ever since. No lag whatsoever.

me and one of my friends were on HTC's facebook page blasting them and on they responded to our ranting.

Correct. Turned off fastboot and the system started behaving the way it should. I've had mine since Friday and don't regret it one bit. I think this thread is not titled correctly. I love my Vibrant, but i'm liking the Sensation even more. The Sensation isn't a huge jump performance wise from the Vibrant, but it overall feels more powerful. It doesn't get bogged down, and browsing on it feels nice and solid. I'd buy it again.
Hows the size difference compared to the Vibrant? Meaning is it a huge difference in size or just minor. Haven't had a chance to lay with one and wonder if its too big.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I had both side by side same size, sensation is thicker but it is round and you don't feel the thickness it feels better in hand than vibrant I hate screen on sennsation colors are washed compared to vibrant and vibrant is lighter and a lot cheaper too.

Lol, the last thing you want to do is to compare any non-SAMOLED screen to a SAMOLED. I miss the vibrants screen (not pixel density), but by itself the sensation does have a nice screen. It's black aren't as black, and it's viewing angles are the best but it's still good.
I liked the sensation when I played with it. That sense3.0 or whatever looked pretty cool and I'm not really a sense kinda guy.
