As long as Android is open source, I'm stayin. I have never even turned an iPhone/Pod/Pad on. In fact, I have never even touched one. Too many clones for me.
Love my ADB.

Why sensation? I'd get the Tmo SGSII as it has a Qualcomm chip so it should have better CM support. or maybe the Amaze 4g or G2x, I have used the Sensation and really didnt like it, but thats just me personally, I like the SGSII the best because it runs really smoothly compared to the sensation, the Amaze 4G i havent used but have heard great things, I'd get the G2X just cause it runs better than the sensation but it isnt my first choice

+1 Both the Amaze and SGS2 are the choices to go to. Unless you are hell bent on the new Nexus

Should i buy this phone now or not?

I see that now one of the biggest moders like cyanogenmod and modaco are not developing things for this phone.
And the bootloader is still not hacked.
Im searching for a phone with big community, that have non stop roms and everything.. you know.. a good android phone.
I just don't know what to do, i need to buy a phone from USA now.
The only option is the Atrix ? And its sucks right now..
What to do ?
It doesn't suck.... you're just being super dranmatic

This is help up?
If non stop roms is what makes a phone good to you, look elsewhere. This phone does not need an unlocked bootloader to kick most other phones asses.

this phone is not for you. wait for the nexus S on at&t, the lg thrill, or the samsung galaxy S 2
Idk if this is an at&t specific thing but the thunderbolt looks really nice and if it is at&t the inspire isn't bad at all, I personally love my atrix, I came from a hd2(which was constant flashing) and a nexus one(which I flashed acouple of custom roms due to stability issues), but if the phone works right and does everything you want it to there's no real reason to want custom roms
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
modaco already started its support for optimus 2x, and paul is really making good results for cwm.. the problem is that g2x is not out yet in the usa and has no confirmed release date yet.
i suggest just wait for possible phones that would be hack friendly w/ no locked bootloaders since you want lots of custom roms, probably g2x, samsung galaxy s2, lg thrill, the next nexus(nexus 2 probably?) or "some" phones from htc(i heard htc is going to be strict w/ their bootloaders on their future phones also )?

Nexus s, g2, or inspire.
The atrix would be a better phone if it had more roms. I dont care too much for stock.

Nexus S? G2 ?
One core devices ....
So to buy the Atrix?
In the future there will be a gingerbread update right? and 1080p too?
Also it will be a strong and good devices without many roms and kernels...
And maybe it will be fully hacked ha.?
What you say.. buy it or not?
I say buy it and I agree with the people above in support of buying it as well.

I guarantee you the nexus s along with others will contend with this phone in the long run. The atrix has lost more than once in dogfights and comparisons. Everyone makes it seem like if u have a single core phone than your simply outdated its just a matter of people wanting to play catch up. There are only 3 dual cores on the market right now.and most of the phones out now g2 nexus s inspire and 4g vibrant are considered better once rooted and hacked.

if u feel like its ur only chance to get one now than shoot but there is barely any support for it kernel and rom wise. 2 roms are in developelment but they dont really enable much. Its a dual core whip out a rom or kernel that will blow other phones socks off. Have me running at 4.4ghz or something. My friends hacked mytouch 4g runs faster than the atrix and its single core lol

I say go ahead and buy it. I originally came from the Evo and Sprint. I originally got the Atrix but then I swapped it for the Inspire. A couple weeks later I swappd the Inspire for an iPhone 4. About two days after, that I swapped the iPhone 4 back in for another Atrix. So I basically had a chance to try out 3 of the biggest phones on Att. The reason I came back to the Atrix is because first of all, its dual core. Even though the Inspire is a great phone, its single core. Its apps that's being developed that'll only work on dual core phones.
Another reason is speed and battery life. Both of which is really great on tge Atrix and blows away a lot of other phones.
Notice in my post I meantioned that I had the iphone for 2 days....that was all I needed to know I wasn't keeping that boring device.
I think the Atrix is already a great device despite not being able to flash rims at the current moment. Like I previously said the battery life is great and the speed is amazing. So if you don't mind running stock, then go for it.

Buy the inspire. I bought mine as a backup and haven't really touched it since installing CM7. Atrix runs fine with stock. I don't understand your need for roms when it performs fine out of the box.

Don't just rush and get tgw Atrix,although I don't think we know enough to properly help you.
You said you need to get it "now", we know that,but how long are you going to be locked into the phone?
If you are just getting it foe the specs, you should really look at how you use the phone and see if dual cores is really something you want, because in my opinion (and I see myself as a heavy user) it isn't needed.
Unless you are playing Dungeon Defenders or other high end games, top tier single cored phones are good enough, don't just buy innto the hype of the specs tthat I and a lot of others did.
I got mine the day it came our here, used it, loved iit,compared to my Nexus 1 and Captivate, then took it back to ATT.
The 2.3.3 Nexus is just as fast doing pretty much everything; the battery lasts all day as well.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App
You cannot legitimately compare the performance of two phones running different operating systems. The results are meaningless. Wait until the Atrix is running 2.3 and then it will be useful. I disagree that the single core phones will be equivalent under those conditions.

Well 2.3.3 isn't out for the Atrix right now so what are you going to do? I agree that it should be as level of a playing field but people are buying the phone right now.
Motorollla could have waited until they got 2.3 on the phone but they chose to release it now and that's what we are comparing it to
Just because it is being compared aand falling up short because of the os doesn't mean you can just disregard the test all together.

Went from a nexus one to a samsung vibrant to atrix. Atrix by far has been the best experience so far. Zero lag.
The n1 had a ****ed up touch screen, even after replacement
Vibrant had awful awful gps and considerable lag compared to n1
Atrix has solved all these problems, and I could give a **** about specs. This phone just works. Just try it before you buy it. I used to load custom roms on ntt previous two phones, but that was because they needed augmentation, this phone does not. Really the build quality is right up there with the n1 or the incredible. My phone has been on for 1 day and five hours, still got ten percent battery left. Been connected to wifi the entire time. I bought the phone yesterday so you know I've been using it.
Amazing, love the high resolution, so much more breathing room. My 2 cents.

Sgs2 or what?

I was just wondering what phone you guys are waiting for, I'm personally waiting for the sgs2, hopefully it comes out soon enough. Seems mostly everyone has gone to the g2x already.
if they did go for the g2x already i feel sorry for them in my opinion. ive seen the reviews and no way is it even close to sg2 not even close to htc sensation. im gonna get either one of those, preferable sg2!

Precisely.
The reason why a lot of people have gone towards the g2x is the big support from the Dev community. Unlocked bootloader + source has already been released.
Not to mention sg2 has no release date for the u.s, others couldn't wait.

These are reasons why people in this community would buy or take a long look at it, seems like a good phone and most reviews are quite good. Samsung and there slow updates, and lack of source make a tough phone for developers and now that HTC and Moto are locking their bootloaders, its gets harder to dev's to make the fun they make.

Hands Down SGS2, I love being able to tinker, but even if I cant I love samsung hardware. I gotta say for support though, LG or HTC
I never understood the craze over the g2. Is there something with current roms that you don't like?
Idk about craze over the G2, but it is a fantastic phone, especially for emulators in my opinion, but thats because you can get some nice clocks outta the CPU. I got one (well, not mine, I tinker with my friends) running @ 1.8ghz, and thats pretty sexy playing OOT on there perfectly (almost) In regards to roms, you mean for vibrant? I have no problem with anyones work =) just prefer my own I'm working on =P
I understand that the G2, and all second gen snapdragons for that matter, can clock high, but is there any application other than emulators that use that power. After all, developers have to take care of both the low and high end phones. Plus, you are killing the lifespan of the CPU and lowering your battery life.
The vibrant runs fine on 2.2.1 and is helped by Samsung's GPU acceleration implementation in both the launcher and browser. And once the i9000 gingerbread roms start rolling out, we can only expect greater speed and stability.
Mostly people suffer from nuevo-addiction and waiting is just too much. Also, alot of people who have phones I have noticed once the phone becomes bugfree with lots of support they bail for a new phone to conquer the new phone system.
I am waiting for the S2
if you've got the money why nit? if I'm a millionaire I would buy all the latest android phone.

I'm looking forward to the sensation. The galaxy s2 wont be significantly better in terms of hardware, and I've got a real bad taste in my mouth from the lack of support my vibrant has received from Samsung. Locked bootloader or not, the sensation is still a pretty good looking phone that I'm sure will perform well.
Worst case scenario, I buy the sensation, hate it and return within 14 days, wait for something else to be released. My vibrant and hd2 should keep me happy until I find something great.

To me the problem is buying a carrier altered edition of the phone. The international GS seems to get upgrades just fine. They don't have to wait on Samsung AND then the retarded carriers with all their alterations and other BS. That's what owning my Vibrant has taught me. 100% international & unlocked only from here on in. I'll be buying the International SGS2 as soon as I can, no US version for me ever again.
all i want is a new google nexus phone with a notification led duel cameras with flash and a duel core processor then ill be happy

I miss my Nexus s :(

I got the lg g2x (ugly phone)on release date.
Since i was eligiable for an upgrade i decided to go with the g2x after reading all the reviews and specs i gave my wife the NS
5 days after
I miss the screen
How the NS Feels on my hand
G2x is fast but i havent really notice nothing really impresive
2.2 and god knows when 2.3 update will arrive
G2x camera sucks
Speakers are to low
Two Pros: 4G and HDMI tv output
Thankfully i got a defective unit (screen bleeding) so i will be returning my g2x today.
Should i get a replament unit or get myself another Nexus S?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
The same thing happened to me...
I returned G2x....back to Nexus S
If you already are disappointed and miss your NS, then why do you actually need our "permission" for this ? Just go for it ! If we would've said get another G2x instead of a new NS, would you have done this ? I, for one, wouldn't have. So yea man... just go for it, especially if you already know how the NS is and feels. Then you CAN'T go wrong.
Wait for sg2 or HTC sensation is what I think I would do just cuz dual core more future proof IMO I do like my nexus but Google isn't what its all cracked up to be IMO
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The main reason I haven't got the G2X is because of its looks (Fugly little monster xD) but anyways, I did notice the camera was a lot better than the NS. Surprised to see you say it sucks lol. T-Mobile did say that 2.3 is not far away and also Cyanogen has been working on getting CM7 onto it which will definitely be 2.3.3
Anyways, I'm extremely happy with the Nexus S and besides a slightly faster phone with improved camera I don't see much of a reason to get the G2X.
I was going to make the jump to T-Mobile, and I held off a couple weeks to try the G2X. I was wary about service at my new place, because my AT&T didn't get any reception. I wanted to get something with UMA, and G2X seemed like the best phone with 4G and WiFi calling. Now that I've realized that I get perfect reception at my home, I don't need to stick with the G2X. After reception and battery issues with the LG, I'm welcoming the delivery of my Nexus S with open arms. I love the screens on my Focus and my old Captivate, so I'm really looking forward to Super AMOLED again.

I dunno about that. Play with an Atrix for a week and then get back to us
God knows I wont try that again.
I would go back to the sexy nexy Nexus-S is a bad ass device, who cares about dual core right now, I would wait until "Ice cream" update is out, for true dual core support, and then get the newest Android phone out at that time, which will probably be a dual core Nexus-3.0 that will be first phone with "Ice Cream" 3.1.
So get the Nexus-S now and have fun. And upgrade to the Nexus-3.0 next year.
Agreeing with the one saying that you don't need our permission. When I saw the G2X I fell in love, but I knew deep down that I would't love it as much as I love my Nexus S. You see, in the future there will be something similar to the Nexus S, the Galaxy S2. It will have better specs, and offer the same development ( or similar) that the Nexus S provides( unlocked boot loader). Trust me, keep your Nexus S and wait for that xD

What he said. But even with jailbreaking a device, customization is still very limited compared to a Android device with access to root / custom recovery.
@OP
I thought the G2X was extremely sexy, sure it looks a lot like the iPhone 4 but the edges were nice and for a 4inch device it felt amazing in the hand, I also loved how the speakers were not on the back, but the bottom(which makes it a great media experience).
Still, I would go with my NS.
Why didn't you guys did what I did got g2x when it came out and also kept my ns so I can switch between devices whenever I feel like. They're both nice phones I think when 2.3 comes out for g2x will be a lot better phone than it is.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Well the G2X just doesn't have the same look and feel as the Nexus S
you see the Nexus S looks like it was the only device on the planet to run stock Gingerbread, the device is all black, and so when you look at the status bar it blends in with the body of the device. The curved display just makes it look so distinct as well, and plus you can't forget about stock Android. Plus the specs are really not that noticeable. Yes that beast processor is better but the multi tasking experience would have been about the same.
I am currently on a sgs. Is it a good idea to change for a nexus s? Or should i wait for the sgs 2???

Well hardware wise the G2x is better than the MT4G in every aspect except for the lower RAM, but that's not a problem as the G2x doesn't run Sense ROM's.
Only disadvantages I can think of from the G2x compared to the MT4G is that MIUI isn't as stable on the G2x. Also, if your wife enjoys Sense then that'd be a problem of course as only HTC phones can run Sense.
g2x is my fave still right next to the galaxy s 2
in no way shape or form does the g2x compair to the mt4g. i have had all three of those phones (current mt4g) and i still regret the day i traded my first mt4g. trust me with how bad lg is for support and how many issues the g2x has it is not a good phone at all. no support whatsoever. yes it is fast but it has so many fc's its not worth it. if your wife wants a phone that she can OC and get a high quadrant standard than yes go with the g2x but i can assure you it will never live up to an htc.

Completely opinion. I like the G2x more than the MT4g because it has better hardware, a nicer screen, and I think it feels much better. It does have quite a few issues so OP don't be surprised if you need to exchange it a couple times but eventually it should work fine. I've already done my rant on HTC devices so I don't really want to type it all out, just stick with the g2x and you'll be fine.

That's pretty much been my exact experience. The G2X screen is quite a bit nicer, and it does feel a bit snappier overall, but the MT4G is no slouch, and a better phone overall; it's much, much, much more reliable than the G2X.
I have both phones I prefer my g2x the screen on the mytouch bothers me kind of washy color and running games side by side no comparison. And try a couple roms I have had the same g2x since April

Everyone that is complaining about the mt4g screen please go look up on you tube mt4g screen compairson. I personally have had one of the crappy screens and my current mt4g with the sony superior screen and it is much nicer than the old one. I can see it from every angel and the glare is greatly reduced.
Not trying to cause fights here, just want to make everyone aware of the difference.
Also I would much rather have single core with 750 mbs of ram rather than dual core with 512.

And op you will have problems with the g2x and since this phone is for your wife, I doubt your or her will want to deal with these issues. I can assure you, it will need to be sent back at least once so if you do go with it, expect for your wife to be phoneless for at least a few weeks.

I had to go through 5 MT4G's to finally get the good screen and good eMMC. But then of course after time button started to get creaky and the touch screen started to have that infamous lag that a lot are having.
Traded it for a G2x and am still on the 1st G2x and absolutely no problems.
I loved the MT4G and always will, if you get a perfect one you'll be happy with it.
I know the G2x has had it's problems, but it seems as if the newer batch has been good to most people.
But if you take a perfect MT4G vs a perfect G2x, then I think it's little to no contest. G2x has better hardware from processor, screen, and all the way down to the speaker quality especially paired with a voodoo sound kernel.
And, the extra RAM on the MT4G is only useful if you run Sense. Other than that 512mb's on the G2x is plenty enough for running CM7 and such.
Again, I love and have owned both phones. I just like the G2x a little bit more. But to each his own.

T-Mobile is killing me!

So all I get from the CES is that you're coming out with a new Samsung Blaze?
I've had an upgrade for a while and have been looking at SGSII, Amaze, and the Sensation. The Sensation only has 768MB of Ram while the others are rocking 1GB, BUT many really good devs have the Sensation.
So, I said I'll wait and see if Tmo is dropping anything new at CES, and what do I get?
Give advice, please. Or just shiite on me for whining.
Look on the bright side, I'm using a G2X. :O
I waited and waited for the "perfect" phone and finally "settled" on the GSII, and it's seriously an incredible device. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend that you pick one up. And dev is definitely picking up (and probably moreso than on the Amaze).
Dude. I liked the amaze but only one dev has picked it up. I hear great things about the gsII

If you're waiting for the next best thing, you're going to be waiting for a while. There isn't much in the pipeline. Tegra 3 is too new, and it'll be a while before it makes it's way into handsets.
Pick up the GS2, amaze has better resolution and camera, but you can't beat super amoled plus.

g2x got eol about 6 days ago http://www.tmonews.com/2012/01/t-mobile-g2x-officially-hits-end-of-life-status/#disqus_thread the blaze is like the sgs 4g it came a good while after the vibrant
Gs4g was only a minor upgrade to the galaxy s.
The blaze is a step below the gs2, still a good device, but not quite as good.

Sensation has an amazing Dev section, one of the best on XDA. Much better than the Tmo SGS2 and the Amaze as far as I am concerned.
You really can't go wrong with the Sensation. That is an awesome phone with tons of support. I still miss mine!

I know!! But damn, everyone is pumping up the SGSII. Everything points to the Sensation, except for the ram. Does anyone think that 768 is gonna be a problem by the end of 2012 for running some kind of intensive ROMs?
The ram has never been an issue for me. The sensation is simply an amazing device. The screen especially. The higher resolution is noticeable.

I have both the Amaze AND the Sensation. The Amaze is an awesome device right out of the box (I will root it, but I have more important things going on atm) and the Sensation (which has true s-off) once rooted, ROMed and themed, is just tremendous. Also, AFAIK there are more devs slowly picking up the Amaze. I think the Energy ROM is being worked on (could be wrong though)
