Well guys ive had my hero since launch and she has been great to me for sure but my evo showed up at my door today. I helped alot of you and tons of you helped me for sure. The heroc forum was my favorite so far(ive been in 4 other lol) what a great bunch of guys(talented ones might i add). I just wanted to say thanks and show appreciation to the devs and other users whom i became friends with and or enemies . Well i guess i will be moving to the EVO forum *tear* peace out dude.
Have fun with your new HTC evo

Yeah Brother enjoy the sweetness,and thx for you contributions
Have fun! Should've gotten the Epic!!!
I will be in this boat as soon as Sprint formally announces how much the Shift costs, and when I can throw my hard earned money at them.

So the question then would be WHY? Lol, or is it just personal preference?
I've been past my date for a few months now (upgrade) and have thought of going EVO, but still love my Hero much, lol, as such, I'm hesitant to make the jump.
I wish they made the Hero with a snapdragon processor and a slightly larger screen and all would be good, hahaha. HTC Knight maybe???
What are your thoughts. Your opinion is valued and appreciated!
Thanks in Advance!

The HTC Knight is 99% going to be a Sprint-branded, uglier version of the G2/Desire Z (closer to the Desire Z in that it runs Sense, as opposed to nearly stock):

I'm in love man it was only 99 bucks at radio shack can't beat that with a bat. Plus its a tad thinner than the evo but both phones are worthy upgrades.

Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
I've been debating for a while now whether to go ahead and get an EVO, but something keeps nagging at me that once I do, they'll announce a new, faster, better phone.
I guess with CES coming up, that will be all the announcements we'll have for the quarter. That'll have to be the time to come to a final decision.

Yeah but for 99 you can't beat it and the evo won't be outdated for a while plus so many devs jumped ship to the evo it probably the hottest forum right now.

Epic has the screen, keyboard, and is blazing fast. Much faster than the evo on 2.1 than the evo is on 2.2

Yeah lol I'm honestly kinda worried that the market is going to be over saturated with Android phones. BUT.. this is great for us, because more phones = more users, more users = more devs, more devs = more great apps! The only problem is, there has to be a standard so that people don't buy crap phones and get upset when a lot of apps don't run!

i am actually enjoying it because android is pushing cell phone technology like microsoft used to push pc technology in the early days (imho).
i mean really, we just got big 4" screens last year and we already have lcd superscreens and amoled plus screens and now dual core cpus... its great
Like what i did in the title there? 2pro, anyways
Been following everyone going from HeroC to Evo shift. did loads of research as im picky about my phone. just took the plunge 2 hours ago and has not looked back!! i almost dont want to root it cause its already fast as F*$%
so point being: thank you to all the XDA devs and mods, and everyone else that points in there 2 cents and effort.
look forward to messing with this bad boy
If i can add to this thread. After reading specs i was going to get an epic. But after reading almost everything here im getting a shift. I havent seen one bad comment on it yet!! Thank you everyone on here!!
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
I'm sure I bad mouthed it initially, but I'm anal about my phones. Let's just say it has started to grow on me. The future looks bright
It's really a great phone, especially coming from a Heroc. Heck, I barely use the keyboard cuz' I have gotten used to "swyping"
...and the phone is smooth, fast, and all that jazz.
Is swype preinstalled on the shift?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
It isn't, but but the Swype beta was open last time I checked so go apply!
My only gripe is the screen size seems so small.

I used to own an Epic and man there is a hell of a lot of drama over there. Even on their IRC...the truth is that there are just not enough handsets out there yet. Dicks will eventually buy it and then start trolling here.

If I'm understanding you correctly, I agree. I think 3D is the most pointless 'innovation' since the cable card. Heck watching anything 3D makes my wife vomit and gives most of the people in my family headaches (I don't have either of those but I think its pointless). With very few exceptions, 3D is used as a gimmick. A hand pops out of the screen and wooshes over the audience. Does it look cool? Sure, but it also serves to immediately remind the audience that they are watching a screen. As an actor that just bothers me. The point of watching a movie/TV show/play is to be wrapped up in a story and a good one should make you forget you're watching anything.
Avatar is the only movie in 3D I've seen that I felt did that to a decent extent and even then there were still a few moments in there that just made me feel like they were shouting in my face "LOOK WHAT WE CAN DO!"

This will happen the moment a "one-click" root method is available.
It will be up to us to keep them in line, and keep our little piece of the world free of riff raff.
The Hero forum really wasn't that bad to be honest with you either.
Couldn't help but laugh, when I saw this, today.
bwahahaha! classic!
I don't think verizon thought that one through.
LOL wow that is funny. I wonder how long that ad will last before its edited to be a little more clear.

No, it's a feature phone with some smartphone like qualities.
most obvious question is, is she a TWOm?
Don't laugh too much, but I bought my 9 year old the ONEm. It's actually a very nice feature phone, looks to be targeted to the tween/teen crowd. Works very well for her needs, and it's not a bad phone at all.
If the TWOm had been available a few weeks ago, I might have even went for it for her instead, but realistically, the ONEm size was probably more perfect for her anyways.
Dey just be freekin' TWOmuch up in dis piece

Pick up a free Atrix4g over the weekend. So far the increase in speed its just amazing over the Captivate. Hope it doesnt slow down as I slowly add back the apps. Love the finger swipe feature and enjoy using Tango with front facing camera for the first time.

to OP: welcome, unfortunately most people (myself included) don't like to see much clutter threads like this on the forum. take some time and read through the wealth of information you'll find here and people will be more than happy to help you if you run into issues along the way, provided you use the right avenues (i.e. posting Q&A in the Q&A forum, not the dev forum).
What is up with the hate in this forum. No congrat for new fellow user and just start blasting over nothing. I wonder if there will be any real support when I do need it. Thanks for the setting a fu*k up first impression.

Just wanted to Say Congrats on the new Atrix.
Lots of info on the forums and lots of help from the users. Do some searches and everything is there but again just wanted to say CONGRATS on the new phone.
Welcome to the forums, and welcome to the Atrix community. Make sure to read the stickies at the top of each forum so people don't get mad at you. That said, don't let angry comments get to you. Enjoy the new phone!

Yeah, for me it will need to have more RAM and be quad core. There are new phones coming out that still don't have 1gb of RAM and are hanging around that 1.2 dual core. My ATRIX is already OCed to 1.45.

This is true BUT seeing all these devices get fully working ICS is making me somewhat regret my decision. Though I am positive that once full sources are released, we should get that soon.
But no denying that hardware wise, the Atrix is a monster and just as good as anything else on the market (especially now since Darkside just got full HDMI Mirroring as well as Webtop over HDMI).

Welcome to the land of Atrix Forums!
Where we all seem to hate each other one day, and like each other the next.
Lol, seriously though, I've been on the Atrix forums since day one of the Atrix release. I've never been a part of a community that was so....... temperamental.
Concerning WiFi Tether and Titanium backup --- those are all both pretty easy to get going... just refer to Swiftks N00B guide. He really did a great job with that thing. I find myself referring going back to it every once in a while.
Once you unlock bootloader ---- the Atrix becomes a whole different beast. You'll have so much to do, it's going to be nuts.
Great deal on a great phone. Buying at this time or receiving rather you didn't have to wait for development to take off like it has grats
