$100 sold. Lol
As u can see I never got around to changing my att carrier avatar I use to have a iPhone. Nothen wrong with them if u plan on jailbreaking it if not prepared to be bored. Jailbreaking makes the phone pretty phone. Would never leave my Droid for it though.
Lol ill have to pass on that

Done with the DX
I'll Slap $ 50.00 bucks on the table new for $ 149.99, about 5 or 6 mo neither Motorola Or Verizon could beyond. I WILL " Franken-phone " the 4.3" Boot the thing a dozen times to re possible. Get back to me & I'll see that peop Verbatim.
Dr X.
you won't be uber-happy with the iPhone 4- I have both (DroidX for persoanl, iPhone 4 for work) and the only thing good about the iPhone is the games- and the camera.
They haven't released an untethered Jailbreak for 4.2.1, which is a PITA if you jailbreak and need to reboot your phone.
Besides- the iPhone 5 will probably be released in September.
i'd wait for the new iPhone coming out June/July.
rumor mill says it will sport a dual core processor, with a much faster graphics processor (SGX543MP2) from Imagination Technologies.
Eh idk tho lol kinda want a 4 now

how much for the fascinate?
Thinking 350+ shipping
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
well i will bid $50 shipping included. its always nice to have a backup. As for ditching the dx for an iphone: i dont know quite why any thought like that would even come through your mind. Not saying the dx is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but an iphone? do you really want to be restricted like that in customization by the cell phone nazi steve jobs? well, its your choice...
most ppl upgrade not downgrade their fones...my ipod touch does everything that the iphone does..aside from being a good looking phone I've never been intrigued by the iphone

I had an iPhone for 2 years, then I switched to Android, after the iPhone 4 came out I thought I was missing something. So, I went back to iPhone, it was a big mistake. I was missing Android almost instantly and I returned the iPhone the next day. I will never go back to iPhone. At least you will have a small bit of time to test the iPhone out, and if you dont like it you can return it, (I think you will be).
Verizon is offering a deal to buy back your smartphone bought during or after November with a $200 Visa gift card if you will purchase an iPhone at full retail.
That said, even though that seems like a bad deal still to me, it looks like the low ballers here could stand to be more generous.
I am currently tryign to decide which Droid to get, the Driod X or the Droid 2 Global. I cant make up my mind which one I like more. I am not waiting for the Droid Bionic in hopes the Droid X and Droid 2 will have the same life as the Droid 1.

Unless some serious bootloader work is done, it isn't looking like it.
I would get the bionic if I didn't already have my X.

The only good that can come from the i[diot]Phone on verizon is the removal of people incapable of comprehending the android experience (how they get thru life is another tangent) & the more conceivable outcome: a potential price war. The likes of which can only hope to benefit users with more inexpensive phones & possibly better price points on things such as net fees. But not to get hopes up or anything, big business begets greedy MFs. Maybe they'll just continue to price fix...

are we still bidding?
My brother is in the market for a new smartphone, so here i am, asking for your opinions/experiences with this phone.
Thank You!
I love my Droid 2. Though I will say the stock Moto Blur sucks. However I haven't really seen any of the manufacturers preinstalled "modifications" that I liked. Maybe I am just to picky. However with any of the custom roms out there - which are really easy to install, if your even atleast a little bit tech savvy - the phone becomes amazing. However I will say, if he was planning to get his first android smart phone, I'd actually wait and get one of the 4g phones that are coming out. Such as the HTC Thunderbold, or the one I am really drooling over, the Droid Bionic. Nothing wrong with the current set of phones, but no point wasting your upgrade when phones that are going to dwarf everything currently out are going to be coming out within the next month or so.
The Droid 2 is a great, fast phone. The physical keyboard is very nice as well. I personally will be getting an HTC phone next time. The locked bootloaders on Moto phones is pretty crappy, and I've always had good experiences with HTC phones.
Yeah, I hate that fact. I may be going with the Thuderbolt, or other HTC device if they lock the bootloader on the Bionic. I reeeeeeeeeally hope they have it unlocked though, cause that dual-core processor is going to be sweet. Though, I really dont know if the android OS really warrants 2.0Ghz equivalent of processor...
Well they gave the option to unlock the bootloader on the Xoom (and even gave unlocked Xoom's updates with no questions asked) so hopefully they will be doing this with all their new devices.
My droid 2 running gummyjar blacked out theme and I'm loving it, puts out everything I need, physical keyboard to txt, touch screen its all I need. I guess just compare the phone to ur needs, if ur not a txting person then the droid x is better for u.

As of now, its the best qwerty slider on Verizon. The only 1 ghz one, so, if you're like me, you'll want the D2.

Galaxy S isn't on Verizon. The variant the fascinate is. Being a former fascinate owner stick with the X. Even with the voodoo lagfix Droid x is far more stable. Sure the super amoled is nice as well a better gaming performance, but it's not worth the lag and hiccups from the fascinate.
If you want development, go with the fascinate.

no im actually quite serious
now i love android and i also hate the iphone with a bloody passion but in reality with locked bootloader on almost every new device made by the main manufactures(HTC, Motorola, and now samsung) makes it near impossible to make your phone yours and even with root access what can you really do that a jailbroken iphone cant?
i mean you dont have to use itunes and such but seriously it isnt hard to jailbreak an iphone and free it from itunes
in reality though the droid x will never be a droid 1, or a HTC Dream(G1) for that matter
EOL for the droid x is coming up and chances are that 2.3 is going to be the last OTA for the droid x and after that your stuck on 2.3 or what ever version manufactures leave you on until you buy a new device
at least the iphone will last 2 years before it stops getting updates
I picked up a DX on craigslist about a week ago to check out why people were leaving the Fascinate for it. I chose a Fascinate over the DX last fall and only regretted it until the first froyo leaks for it showed up.
In my opinion (grain of salt check) a froyoed Fascinate is a better phone than a froyoed DX. Development seems to be roughly the same in terms of quantity and the quality of development on the Fascinate feels better. My camera/camcorder works, bluetooth doesn't kill the battery, GPS is fixed.
I haven't played around yet with gingerbread (yeah, I'm waiting...) So I can't comment there. Sleigh it looks like fully functioning GB is right around the corner and there is a handicapped one out now for the Fascinate.
This is totally subjective, but the Fascinate is more comfortable to hold also. My DX is probably going to last another week before hitting "The 'bay".
Galaxy S II should be out in 1-2 months. Just wait and get that. Far better than either the Galaxy S or Droid X.
Wow I need to delete this thread because my dad is soooooooo gay and made me get a piece of **** phone. **** this is awesome.
Dx by a mile. Bigger screen, better camera, you will get manufacturer updates. Anyways, wait for the bionic or get a thunderbolt.

Although I agree with most of that as I also suggested droid X. Fasinate has a far better camera. People think more MP equals better. In this case it doesn't. Of every phone I have ever owned Fascinate has the best camera.
I dont think you guys understood could only get the samsung......but now i have a working dx
Anyone play around with the droid 3 or upgrade from the X to it? I am thinking of using my upgrade on it.. I miss having a keyboard. I was waiting for the bionic but who knows when if it will come out, plus there's no keyboard..4G really isn't relevant for where I live yet.
Idk still wait for the bionic but if you don't need the 4g then the others seem more apealing. But if you get the bionic there will be plenty of new stuff for it, no doubt they will realease honeycomb for it if its popular enough.

Wait, people are still considering buying a Motorola phone when HTC is unlocking all their bootloaders and Samsung has been making it easy to do so as well?
Motorola as a nerd smartphone manufacturer is DEAD.

Xoom + DX = bluetooth tether for free without root. Also works with D1, D2, D2G, D2R2D2, and DPro. Probably will work with D3 and Bionic. Oh, and bluetooth tether with these Moto phones also will work with a Samsung Tab 10.1, and probably any other Honeycomb tablet. Regular adhoc Wifi hotspot doesn't work. Thanks Moto
You should be able to do that with any other Bluetooth Android phone, too. However, Bluetooth data transfer rates are ridiculous...you probably don't notice on 3G, but if you go to LTE, you'll see horrible performance doing that.

The D3 is a nice phone but Im holding out til the Bionic hits.
I've got 4G where I live already and want 4G for video chatting.
4G will provide a smoother Video chat experience when compared to a 3G connection.
Got a buddy of mine with the D3 and I was comparing it to an X2 and I would take the D3 over the X2 if I had to get a phone right now this minute. But its sounds more and more like the BIONIC is going to be the device to have. LTE and pretty much the same as the D3 in every other way. The D3 I think is a little late to the party at this point. It should have come out shortly before the but LTE push to hold people over but now I am afraid its going to get swept under the rug.
Then like some of the other posts said the Samsung devices are really frickin nice right now and that SuperAMOLED is incredible to look at.

How does the screen on the Droid 3 look as compared to the Droid X2?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
From what I noticed they are the same when it came down to quality. So size is the biggest difference I saw and the X2 wins there.

On topic:
I would wait another couple of weeks for the bionic or any news of a SGSII. The Bionic has a home splash now at Verizon, and we all have thought for a while that August would be the right time anyways. Judge for your self from there, as the Bionic is rummored to be a slightly different beast. (probably a 3g phone vs. 4g Flagship type thing)
And less on-topic

Not Necessary. Look at the Atrix, I have some faith left for open boot loaders on future phones. Also, I love moto build quality and style. If you don't like moto phones, and the thread is asking specifically of a moto device, inside a thread for a moto device, you should probably take a long and hard look at your priorities.
Yeah besides some issues with my last DROID X Motorola has been rock solid hardware and great for reception and to me lately quality beats easy rooting. I have my X and three OG DROIDS my wife and sister are due to upgrade in november so we will see what's hot then but Motorola will still be the first phones I look at.

Hey everyone, just curious with opinions, should I stay with my droid x or buy the droid bionic when it comes out, take in mind I would have to pay full retail, thanks guys
DROID X running liberty GB V.8
I'm having the same thought as you. But retail? That's my drawback. Plus there has been so much happening in the last 2-3 months with the X. roms galore. So in the end I think I'm going to wait and watch. If it comes to the point that so many modders focus strictly on the bionic, that may make me jump on board sooner.
Yeah, retail and all the roms coming out for the X are starting to hold me back to, i will probably wait, and watch
DROID X running liberty GB V.8
Is the bionic confirmed unlocked?
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
There's so many phones coming out in the next month in a half, if having Motorola isn't a must, go ahead and wait.
Although right now development r the X is great, and we don't know whether Motorola will live up to there promises and unlock the bootloader in the Bionic.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I had the same urge before, but after cm4dx came out I see no point of buying a new phone until Ice Cream Sandwich hehe.
I just got my Droid X and I am coming from an OG Droid. This thing is WAY faster and so much smoother. AND THEN I put CyanogenMod 7 on this thing and now I am in love for real. Only thing the community needs is an open bootloader for custom kernels and I would be golden. I believe I am going to have to hold off on a newer phone, but I do get an upgrade in November. So I think I will sit back and watch what happens as well. Fingers crossed for an unlocked bootloader.
Thinking of the same thing.
I would have been eligible for annual upgrade. Now they discontinued.
What to do???
I'm going to wait it out. Droid X has been very good especially running Liberty GB. It will be interesting to see how the Bionic does though.
I'm eyeing up the nexus prime myself. If verizon does get it and the specs are what everyone is saying they will be or better I will probably be picking it up upon release.

No phone is worth full retail.
I'm no longer going to lock myself into contracts.
I was interested in the Bionic until I started reading about the Droid HD possibly coming later this year, which looks better to me than the Bionic.

If you are waiting for the ultimate phone to spend $600 on, you will never do it. From the time super mega killer phone X is announced and finnally released, super mega killer phone Z is in the works with even better specs, etc. You can't win. Keeping up with the latest electronics is a waste of money. I suggest you wait until the Bionic is out a couple of weeks and see what the reviews are before you decide. Might be a turd.

Of course, but if you keep waiting for the next best thing you'll never buy anything.
If the Bionic comes next month, and the HD in October, I can wait for the HD. It has a bigger and better screen than the Bionic.
im thinking the bionic
The bionic 2 is such a beast I will wait for that.
Unless you have money to burn, burn wait until later in the year. I got my x on launch day, and I'm eligible for an upgrade (according to the guy at the version store who I have worked with a lot) in December. The I'm sure that I'm not alone. Besides, the x, really isn't that far out of date yet. It will be around new year. The moral of the story, and just wait a little while longer.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App
Yeah I'm eligible for upgrade in October. The bionic looks great but I'm sure if I wait a bit longer they'll announce a DX3 or something that will stomp bionic. Not to mention, 4G for Verizon is still very limited so I'd want to buy a phone that not only has power, but a network where that power could flourish.
