After 10 months of having an Aria I have decided to move to the Inspire. I'm gonna miss you all. This was the perfect community, lots of hard workers and not very fast moving, like the Inspire one where you post and 2 minutes later you have 20 new posts on top of yours. I know now for sure that teh Aria is indeed the best size for a phone. I'd like to say thank you to CallMeAria, GenePoole for making the best ROM ever, DrowningChild, Jznomoney and everyone else who worked hard for all of us to enjoy the best ROMs and apps. You're all fantastic people and I hope you stay that way.
I'm looking forward to see some of you over there. Goodbye!
Very nice goodbye. I hope you enjoy the Inspire!
Best of luck & enjoy the Inspire!
Good luck with your new phone! I hope it will be as fun for you as the aria is.

Thank you guys! I wish you all the best
Congratz on Inspire! and Best of luck to you sir!
Oh he'll be back...
Have fun with your new phone, best of luck!
hey dude, i am on the same page as u, i was thinking of buying a inspire 4g..
but how is your experience of the camera on 4g..
i used to think my aria is more or less same as iphone 4g but damn it sucks compared to iphone 4 specially in indoor lighting condtions.

You're lucky that I still come to this forum from time to time to see if I can help on anything. I'm loving the Inspire, the camera is great actually. Most HTC's phones come with crappy camera but the Inspire is excelent in outdoors and very good indoors, the double LED flash works like a charm. It also comes with face recognition. More important there are some fascinating ROMs for the Inspire. The best you can get is TB Fusion 1.9 that's Gingerbread with Sense 3.0 weather, lockscreen and SMS. Works blazing fast and is very very stable.
I'm still waiting to see some familiar faces on the Inspire forum. You won't regret it

actually you will soon see me in inspire forum.. just bought an inspire 4g from ebay..
but i was looking at those rooting methods for inspire, and all those gold card, load radio stuff is freaking me out, i hope its easy..
I'm going on a full year with my aria. That is a first. Usually have changed 4 times or more by now. Would love a bigger robust phone but aria fits the bill. Perfect size, gym and running friendly package! Glad your liking the inspire and happy at&t is getting better with the android line. An Aria 2 would sway me from my Aria!!!

Just use attn1's HTC Inspire Hack Kit v11. The current version even creates a goldcard for you.
As for my year old Aria, I'll be getting my HTC Incredible S tomorrow.
Haha I'm going with the aria another year till contract is up but even then I might stay with it for a little bit after till the nexus 4 (hopefully).
Signatures are fancy.
I have a bit over a week with this lil ballsy phone, still will work on my kernel as much as I can
Getting an infuse, see if I can do a little work over there

Ah cool. A good friend of mine just bought an Infuse, and he loves it. I played with it for a while, and it seemed plenty snappy and like most of the bugs in the SGS series have been worked out. Good luck with it!

No, I got a Candanian NAM version off of ebay. My wife has had an EVO for almost a year and I just couldn't get use to a 4.3 inch display like the EVO/Inspire has. The Incredible's 4 inch screen should be just about right.

Anyone else thinking of getting the inspire or any new 4G phone?
Don't get me wrong I love my Aria, its one of the best phone I've own. With that said I'm leaning towards the Inspire aka Desire HD.

Oh I'll definitely be jumping on the Inspire. I don't know if its gonna be my primary though until someone can get it rooted. I fear its gonna have an Hboot that hasn't been cracked yet but once it gets rooted and has CM going on it its gonna be a beast!

The Desire HD has been out and is rooted and has CM 7. I predict that on 2/13/2011 you will be able to root and install CM 7 on the Inspire by that evening.
I can only hope that it has the same hboot as the European one
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Nope, It is confirmed that the Hboot on the Inspire is different than the DesireHD. "HBOOT-0.85.0019" on the inspire, which has the exploit used for the desireHD patched. but there may be another way that will be tried feb 13th

Its a great device, but i personally hate the cheap plasticy feel of it and gps works when it wants but not all the time, other then that its fast and has great battery life. but the lack of CM7/AOSP is a downside in my opinion. so im selling it and getting the inspire.

No the captivate is not better then the aria for a phone in my opinion, but it depends on what u want to use it for. its better for battery life, web browsing, and gaming..but i wouldn't buy another samsung..I would personally reccomend the Inspire if u want a bigger screen. and if your looking for a keyboard
go with the NAM (BELL) Desire Z. works perfectly on att 3g if u get it unlocked
i'm totally getting an inspire, especially since i have an upgrade available on my account so it should only be $99...don't know if i'm going to sell my aria right away or not though.

Yeah guys, I would not buy the Inspire the day it comes out until a confirmed working root is known. It comes stock Android 2.2 and it is a little trickier to root.

Welcome. At the time, I really enjoyed my HTC Hero. I previously had an HTC Touch with a winblows OS, so android was a wow moment for me.
There's alot of great devs and support for the EVO. It think it what sets this phone apart from any other. Good luck and enjoy (when you get your flash fixed).

im a Sense freak. i am gonna go with myn's warm rls5 with slayer69 cyan dragon theme.
i was thinking if i tried to flash it to see if i liked it and to see if it would fix my LED flash problem. but idk how to UNROOT the evo like i did with the hero. cause idk where to get the RUU for the evo. its on there main site for the hero but not the evo. just tells me how to hard reset by holding the volume down and power on and clean drive.
If you want instructions on how to unroot the EVO this thread on this site talks about it and has links to instructions on what you need to do.

I've had an EVO since launch day but I just bought my dad one over the week. He's upgrading from the RUMOR so it's a big step up for him. Radioshack had a promo over the weekend. Turn in your old phone and credit a $50 dollar credit for either a new EVO or EVO shift. So total it was only $150 plus tax out the door.
Also new to the EVO forums, got it today, cant wait to get home an root-root-root.
And flush my Hero into a drawer for emergencies.
I'll be seeing ya'll around here. ;-)

First time poster, long time reader, just wanted to hi and that this forum site is awesome. I rooted my phone three days ago and today I'm running and loving mikfroyo 4.5. Thanks to all!!
Welcome, try cm 7
I bought an Evo almost entirely because of our dev community.
Currently running MikFroyo 4.5 with Slayer's Dragon Theme (it is badASS) but I've run quite a few others. Huge CM fan (it's been on all my rooted phones at some point.
Great devs, great phone, adequate service. Yeah, I love my Evo
Plus, we have a Honeycomb rom being cooked up by AndroidBall. Excited about that as well
lucky you. i cant run the slayer69 dragon theme. its a SICK SICK theme toon. it just keeps crashing on me. but
Welcome to this old decrepit phone. In few months I'll be ditching mine. I'm just waiting to see what radio hacks develop for the cdma iphone.
I have a HD7 and im getting alittle bored of it, and the screen size is alittle too big. There is someone locally who wants my phone and $75. Im not sure if its worth it or not. i know it is hardware wise, but i heard the atrix lags alot compared to others xD Thanks.
the atrix is the fastest phone you will use ONCE you install another launcher. This would definitely be an upgrade.
The people complaining, are generally irked by the bootloader being locked (which will hopefully be fixed soon) and therefore are harder on the phone.

I returned the Atrix yesterday. I really liked it, very fast and an amazing battery, but I had issues with it. My main issue was voice quality. Every single person I spoke to had trouble hearing me. I also didn't like the camera, pictures didn't look good in my opinion. Also, had issues with gps not responding properly from time to time, but I think that was just an issue with my unit not all Atrix phones. Now I'm waiting a week or 2 to see if I get the Infuse 4G, that phone sounds sick!!

just because no one else caught it, you can't install sense on this phone. Sense is HTC's version of motoBlur. Since this is a motorola phone, no sense. you can make it look like sense by installing launcherPro and skinning it, but that's about it.

The infuse is a downgrade from the galaxy S 2. single core vs dual, and bigger screen which i dont want. why did you return your atrix?
If you got bored with your hd7 then you'll get bored of the Atrix really fast. Poor developement due to locked botloader makes for a very boring device. We're also totaly at motos mercy for fixing broken features wbich they' ve do.e a terrible job of so far. I' d trade my Atrix for an hd2 in a second.

Lets go over this once. Sense, MotoBlur, TouchWiz, they are not just skins. They are woven into the android build by the respective manufacturers. To port to this phone you would need the ability to flash custom roms, which you can't do on the atrix. Yes there are a few like gingerblur, but those really aren't custom, just tweaked and skinned. Until motorola unlocks the bootloader (don't hold your breath that the devs will ever figure it out), there is no hope. This is why you probably won't see MIUI either.
getting past that, has there ever been a sense port for a non-htc phone? No HTC phone has had the same hardware as the atrix, so i'm betting it's hard to impossible.
not trying to be an ass, just making sure you understand. This is an awesome phone, just don't come in expecting all the openness of old HTC phones.
I miss the Super amoled screen
Pros:
FFC
HSPA+
LED FLASH
FM RADIO
Physical Buttons + Dedicated Camera Button
Great build quality
Cons:
No Super Amoled Screen
No 16GB Internal Memory
No more Bionix :/
I don't regret it as much but going from a Super Amoled screen to a standard screen really made me realize how great my Sammy Vibe really was! I took it for granted!! You will be missed! (EXCEPT THE GPS ISSUE)
Well i jumped ship.. can't wait for the SGS2 though! Hope to catch up with some of you guys later in the SGS2/HTC SENSATION threads!
Goodbye!
Especially you s15274n. You have been really helpful! Without you knowing. lol
The bionix team and whitehawkxx wish you guys the best.
heading over the the MT4G/Glacier forum now. Peace!
Yeah i feel you man. My wife got a Mytouch 4G and its really nice, i mean really nice, but the Samsung Vibrant has the better screen with the Internal Storage that came way in handy for me. I rooted her mytouch 4g up already and put on some Gingerbread which i love with everything working, and the Vibrant still dont have everything working on Gingerbread. Well i guess ill be seeing you over there. I go from the Vibrant forums to the Mytouch 4g forums, switching out like crazy. =D

Yeah true its just GPS not working. But also the Battery drain on the phone is terrible, which is really irritating. But once battery drain is fixed then i'll probably be back on CM7 or MIUI.

people you are too impatient. Just when they get the software for the Vibrant Humming you all jump ship.......... Hercules and the S2 will be out in the next 30 days and then, we will have something really to go too.........
Wanting always is better than the having.......... patience

I agree with you, but since i didn't buy a new phone and simply traded i feel that jumping ship wasn't a bad choice. I still plan to upgrade!
Also the MT4G can be resold for a higher price than the Vibrant on craigslist.
BTW... WINNING!
To any CM7 users of vibrant and another phone with CM7(nexus one,MT4g,G2 etc.) are there any other difference in speed? I'm using Cm7 on vibrant but i can't compare it cause it's my only phone.
I picked up a g2 for cheap but still have my vibrant. I don't know what all the fuss was about. This doesn't feel any faster than my kb5 vibrant, and the "build quality" just makes it feel heavy and bulky. Its a decent phone overall, but not any better overall than my vibrant.

Traded the Mytouch 4G for a G2.. G2 is a way better phone than the Mytouch 4G. Some people don't miss keyboards.. but you are crazy not to have a keyboard!! Bought the game gripper and wow.. just wow. The G2 is an overall fun phone and great speed/development/great everything!! Even the hinges on this unit are amazingly stronger than the other g2's i have used.
I really like my wifes mt4g. I began to dislike my G2 before I sold it. It felt like a phone meant for someone that doesn't know how to dress themself. It's hard to explain.
My Vibrant is starting to get old, but I have a sgs4g on the way that should renew my interest in the galaxy line.

Not quite sure what about the SGS 4G would renew your interest in comparison to the Vibrant, unless you are in a 4G area and just really CRAVE the extra bandwidth so much that you won't miss the internal 16GB from the Vibrant (4G only has 1GB internal).. And of course, FFC.... which really AFAIC is a "bell and whistle" that 99% of people use once and never use again.

Add the bad/good screens, dust under the screen issues, bad eMMC chips that are said to cause bricking, creaky buttons on a few units, and off centered FFCs on a few. I wanted to trade as well, but a look at the forums steered me right away.
Well, the only phone I'm moving to when I get the chance is the SGSII, no matter what.
I love HTC phones but plenty of those are CDMA only and that doesnt work in my country :[
I bought the mytouch4g back in January and it was so great to have a phone that worked well right out the box and every custom gingerbread rom I've put on it has ran smoothly. However, I find myself constantly going back to my Vibrant. I miss the screen and I feel like the Vibrant has a lot more devs working on roms. I was just about to sell my Vibrant so I could have a few extra bucks when I read about the GPS fix. If I can find the perfect Gingerbread rom I will be keeping my vibrant until Samsung releases a dual-core phone for T-Mobile.
Hey all. I decided against going with the 3vo and went with the 4g (on the advice of a few sprint employee friends). I've had root on my hero since it was possible and finally just got tired of the phone itself. This phone is everything I knew it would be. SOME issues I've experienced but nothing all that bad. GV didn't work at all but it's working now and the voice option on the keyboard doesn't work. Oh well.
Anyways, I'm not at all a dev, but will be happy to give feedback on whatever rom (once root). For those who are working on root options...GOOD LUCK!!!
hello. nice to meet you
Welcome aboard. I would like to personally thank you for NOT starting a thread about how to root your phone.

c-had - You're welcome. I do my homework.
I am, HOWEVER, going through withdrawal lol. I was flashing my hero with a new rom daily there for a while. I'm bored haha.
Thanks popper..nice to meet you too
Welcome to the evo. Don't mind the trolls they seem to be in abundance these days. Might make me goto the 3d just for that reason.
As for the voice, I had that problem in a few roms. Idk what the problem was but after installing swiftkeyboard x its working fine on my current daily driver. I can't say it didn't work before becouse I didn't try it.
Salvage asop running like a champ.

I'm right with ya on that. This is the first phone I have had that I couldn't root, but hopefully soon we get a solution to that.

The 3d board is going through the same thing as this one is when it comes to "trolls" i believe

true dat
I still have my hero...it's collecting dust lol
Wow, so I'm not the only one that didn't fall for the 3-D crap. I just came from the here as well and the 3-D was only an option when I heard about the ram and dual core processor, after I messed with it for a while I was over it lol. Welcome man, its a good step in the right direction. The only way I would even consider going with a 3-d phone is once the whole 3-D option either plays out or gets much better.

Welcome aboard! I just jumped ship from the Hero to the EVO a month or so ago as well

The 3d is a solid phone and it's FAST... In the end ,however, the screen size and the 8 mega pix camera won.
Im going to look to sell my hero (actually i have two) on craigslist since i got kicked off ebay in 2003.

Im really loving this phone! It's less stressful than my hero lol.

Who all here has bought the bigger battery for the phone? Its not that big of a deal for my to put it on the charger...but the battery life leaves you wanting. Is it worth the $60 from a sprint store? Or would amazon be a better route
