I was at the mall and walked into the at&t store and I started.playing with the atrix. Not impressed at all. Of course it being at&t The download speeds on speedtest.net were awful. I got like 150kbs down. My smartbench 2010 score was 1256. I can't remember what the games Index was. My epic honestly felt just as fast and smooth as that dual core. I know android isn't really able to take advantage of dual cores yet but it just made me appreciate my epic a little more. I also definitely wouldn't get it cause its locked down way to much with the bootloader so very small chance of custom kernels. Any one else been able to okay with it? Thanks for reading my post.

Atrix 4G Speeds Reported Slower Than 3G
http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/222046/atrix_4g_speeds_reported_slower_than_3g.html
With the dock its a nice phone, but I would have never invested so much in a locked boot loader and encryption to boot! Many developers aren't going to invest much if any time in the phone due to the amount of work it will take to get CM7/ etc working for it. My good friend has it, and though it runs rather nicely and the dock is pretty cool, I think they really crippled it with the lock out abilities.
Yes you are right. The.****.is very nice. I would jump on the phone if the bootloader wasn't locked. I honestly just thought it was going to be better than what it was. The damn salesperson kept.bothering me when.I was playing with.it. he kept saying isn't that such a nice phone. Finally I said no its not mine is better and I'm just bored. He finally let me alone.

Once I saw this phone, I was thinking THAT was how M$ could get back in the game.
If they could put out a Windows phone that ran something like Windows 7, and connected like the Atrix does making it a laptop, that would be a big deal, and provide a really great platform, almost to the point of replacing laptops and desktops for home use.
Sadly, I doubt M$ could get it done.
As nice as the concept is, having a laptop setup does little good, if you cant run your desktop apps.
While I use my phone for most stuff now, I still am tied to my laptop for things like advanced picture and video editing.
It would be nice if it didn't dangle off the back either... If the phone slid into place where the touch pad should be that would be a nice and clean solution

I figured anyone with even the least bit of mental development would've had their skeptic alarm go off at the sight of all the Atrix hype. The more people talk about a gadget, the less the gadget speaks for itself. At least, that sure has been history's lesson.
In fact, the surface is never the reality anymore. Dual core has never meant double performance, free services doesn't change the fact that we're Google's product and retailers buying ads are Google's customers, revolutionary doesn't mean Apple actually built their own hardware, and saying M$ has never made anybody cool. ;p

Set From My 3.0.1 Bonsai Epic 4g
Mildly related: I walked into Costco and the carnival guys working the Verizon kiosk called me over to look at the new Moto Xoom. He went into his spiel about how great Honeycomb is and everything. I asked him if it was rooted and he said, "What's that?" "Newbie," I thought to myself. He let me play with it and I decided to download Quadrant to see what it would pull. He asked me what Quadrant was. I told him it was a benchmarking tool (but secretly I'm thinking, "You're a tool!"). So I run Quadrant and the Xoom with its Tegra2 gets 1800. I'm like WTF? So I pulled out my Epic Bonsai monster and cranked SetCPU to 1200/1200 and ran Quadrant. He looked at my Epic wide-eyed as I showed him the 2450 on my screen. I walked away feeling a little smug.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Except the 2450 was an artificially inflated score and quadrant isn't optimized for honeycomb.
Yeah I did say that I jumped on it and the salesperson kept coming over. I hate autocorrect. I'm definitely proof reading from now on.

I was just thinking, in two or three years when we've all moved on from our N1s, we could band together and stick them together into a giant android sculpture, or a transformer
#random
Crazy idea buddy but good idea to honor the n1, the best bravest and most innovative phone ever but the worst treated by the media, utterly assassinated.
Maybe a site which each person with an n1 IMEI rate their n1 online on a 1 to 5 scale - and get a virtual n1 to build a sculpture with, and a place to write comments on their virtual n1.

Or maybe make a chat app like chatroulette that uses the device numbers as registration so its n1 users only then create a meetup.

Long story short, he payed me 50 bucks to make his as awesome as mine.

I wonder how long it will be until Google has a manufacturer produce another developer phone?
The Nexus one is the most perfect phone for me and I cant see anything but another developer phone replacing it. It's beautiful, cutting edge, gets updates quicker, is with T-mobile, and is not under carrier control.
What more could you want?
I only know two other people who have nexii one. And they both bought one because they saw how awesome mine was.
Im sure we could get google to organise something like this, an N1 graveyard of kings.
I wonder how well it would've sold if it had been available in stores.
Now that Google have announced they have the final batch of N1s from HTC, I went and ordered another one! I'm going to leave it in mint condition.
I have had range of different cell phones since 1993 and none come close to the N1.
I know that the future will bring much better phones, however, I do recognise what Google was trying to achieve with the N1.

I unlocked it, rooted it, upgraded his radio and kernel (OC, UV - and he was still running 2.1 update 1. Working for Tmo you'd think he'd get the upgrades first xD) And after that, I gave him CM6, cause that was pretty much the easiest way to get all of the GOOD mods in one. I gave him ADW using the paperless theme, and he thought that was way cool, along with the black desire notification bar. It probably took me, including download times, about 25 minutes using his laptop. So, if I could do this for a living, I could charge $120 an hour =D

Not a lot, but what if they come out with a phone that has 1gb of RAM and a dual core 2ghz proc.

I came over from a 3GS as well, and I might not have, if it wasn't for the iOS4 update. My 3GS was jailbroken, and set up really well, but I'm a big cycling fan (loved seeing HTC-Columbia featured in that Desire video, even if I did have to watch that tool Cavendish win...like I don't have to see that enough already), and the Tour de France app was crashing on 3.1.1, so I had to "upgrade". Even after jailbreaking iOS4, it was just never the same. Except for the camera and display, my 3GS would have handed the new iPhone its ass, in terms of functionality.
That said, I'm a longtime linux geek, and I did want an android phone, plus the school I go to, their website is in flash, and I do homework through it sometimes...very doable on the Evo, impossible on the iPhone.
Oh, and now I get through phone conversations without losing the call.

Welcome to technology.
I just hope the people who are overly complaining stay that way. One thing that blows my mind is when someone complains before they even see the product. Now don't get me wrong I know everyone want a evo 2, but nothing wrong with sprint trying something new out. And to those threatening to leave your contract because of this, lol like people haven't said this before and got raped with no lube by the next carrier you went to - give me a break.
[update] This phone is horrid, i tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, and i guess you can't do that with sprint (my first time signing up with them in sept ember), oh well wait for MWC.

The camera button bothers you only because you aren't used to it. After you get used to it, if you use the camera, you're gonna love it.
I didn't know you ever had a kickstand to begin with....zing!
The fact that on the evo 3d the charging port/ hdmi port is one in same makes it a no go. At least with evo 4g you can stream Netflix, HBO go and other internet streaming sites while still charging the phone makes it a plus. That phone will be 99 bucks after Christmas.

Even the dirkmeister is leaving?!?! What that Hank? You'll be back in 30 days, when HTC reneges on their promise of unlocked bootloaders. Just kidding bro, enjoy the 3vo. I'll be joining maybe eventually, or I might wait for the Photon, or gs2. Good luck, and happy trails.

Being a over the road trucker must truck stops have free high speed wifi. I have a 387 peterbuilt truck with a 32 inch flat screen mounted so streaming movies saves a ton on entertainment. They want 26.99 for a new release DVD... No way.... So for me the evo 4g is where I will be parked for a while and if I do upgrade I will still keep the phone for that purpose ... I think there will be much better phones offered in 2012.

32" wow that must be insane inside your truck I bet! Id be happy to have a 7" in dash LOL. If they do have better phones is still get my normal upgrade by the end of the year as I didn't use it.

The cool thing with me is that by the time I upgrade in January, the devs will have rocked the 3D and the S2 so I can just step in, "root the *****" and start playing, like i did with the Evo.
Hell, they may have a root for the Evo 2.3.3 by then, too! lol

I guess now I HAVE to get an Evo 3D.
I definitely have to wait until full root.
There's no way I can go back to Sense.
AOSP for the win.

Same here. I cannot stand Sense. I actually played with an EVO 3D, and comparing it to my rooted, fully decked-out AOSP running phone, honestly it wasn't much faster either.
I'm sure it will be blazing once root is achieved and it has proper support, but my LauncherPro was certainly faster than Sense 3.0, apps loaded about the same speed, the browser pinch to zoom was almost exactly the same.
I'm sure for flash videos and graphics-heavy games it would certainly make a difference, but aside from that, a rooted EVO 4G easily matches the speed of a stock EVO 3D.

Okay, after much hemmin' and hawin', my girlfriend has decided that she wants an Android phone to replace her aging Crackberry Tour. The phone has served she and I rather reliably for almost 3 years, but she played with her friend's Fascinate, she got wet for the Sammy. For some reason she hates my Evo and thinks it is too big. So it is down to the Epic 4G (because she wants a bloody keyboard). I am trying to talk her into either the Shift or the NS4G but that may be difficult. If I gotta get her the Epic, I will. I liked the phone when I had it for 2 weeks as a demo, but I know the support for it from both the Dev standpoint and the Android standpoint blows.
Either way she goes, the phone is getting rooted. Too bad she likes iOS, er Touchwiz.
Have you shown her miui?

Not yet. I may do that after I root it. If she doesn't like it, I will get her back to TW.
My son insisted on a keyboard too. I got him the Shift and he loves it.
The Evo is pretty damn big but my GF got one after her Epic had so many problems stock. I say avoid and get the Shift.

Just leave her phone stock. She could care less if its rooted, and it will save you the headache of dealing with her complaining when something goes wrong.

You say, "stock"? I guess it wasn't rooted?
As for the shift, I asked her about it and she hates my phone and that is just a smaller version of my phone with a keyboard.

Actually, she works in IT and she wants me to root it for her. She can TS her own issues once she has it and I show her a few things. I am not worried about her complaining. She is fed up with the Crackberry and the hybrids that she had loaded on it.
I got my wife the shift and she loves it.

My wife has a shift as well, so I rooted, etc for her. But, using that thing after using, and being used to, both the ogevo and Evo3D is a nightmare for me, lol. The buttons are NOT where my fingers think they 'should be', and every time I have to use her Shift, I just want to throw it through the nearest window. It IS fast, and it DOES run smoothly, however.
Sent from my Evo³d
i have a shift use it mostly for movies videos and shows. when the wife uses it she types away on the keyboard and likes it. good battery life also. ( after rooting and adjustments.)
Have her feel both phones one after the other. The shift feels just so much better.
Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.

Yeah, I tried that in the Sprint store, but still no dice. Oh well, we have 30 days.

Right out of the box, nothing done to it at all. It didn't make it through the 30 day return policy. It was more like 2 weeks.
Well, I gave her the phone last night and she loves it. It helps that it's rooted with the latest GB update.
I had forgotten how much nicer the Galaxy S screens were than the Evo.
