Well your on the atrix forums so obviously everyone here picked the atrix. In your sig you bought an inspire already....and there's already like 15 threads here about inspire vs atrix

Ok but what do you think obout the atrix i like to hear from people who really owned the phone

I got rid of the garbage phone called the Inspire after like 5 days. The battery life blows big time and the speaker volume at max sounds like a stereo on volume level 3. The atrix runs much better IMO and is more future proof. It may not have all the ROMs and Kernels the Inspire does but oh well I'd rather not carry a charger around everywhere I go or miss phone calls and texts due to a horrendous speaker.
U are right so far thats what i dont like about the inspire. But hows the atrix? Is it hard to root and can i get custom rooms?

I have both phones and I do say that the Atrix does have a better speaker. When you root and put another ROM on the Inspire that sound quality and volume improves signifigantly.
Also by flashing another ROM on the Inspire the battery life improved as well. I also picked up a spare 1800mAh batter from www.obostore.com and my battery life is even better. Also throwing juicedender on your phone also improves a lot. You can totally customize your battery with just that app.
For me it was a tuff choice to make but I decided to keep both of them. I love HTC and the sense UI. It trully feels personalized with how much HTC software is put into the phone. The Atrix is more bland but what it lacks in sytle it makes up in power. The performance difference between the two phones is noticable in the Atrix favor. It's going to be interesting to see how the Atrix holds up against the LG Thrill with the dual core TI processor. I have my money on the graphics processor company instead of the the calculator manufacturer.
So what would you recomend

I leave it up to the end user. If you like the software that HTC provides then go with that. Also the 4.3" is really nice to have.
The Atrix has that raw power that practically no phones pocess to date. It's really a hard choice in my opinion. Both phones are going to be good choices. If price is a matter then deff go with the Inspire.
I dont care bout price i just want to have the top of the line phone but i hate apple and its isucks i mean iphone

I tried the Inspire on Thursday. The HTC sense was awesome, But the
speaker volume is low and tiny. Also noticed signal strength was not as
good as my iphone. I returned it yesterday. I'm thinking of going back to AT&T today to pickup an Atrix.
well i've had my atrix for a few weeks now and i would definitly recommend it over the inspire, it's not hard to root, and the ADEO rom is really nice, u can't really fully get the feel of a phone in the store(i found that out back when i had the HTC Touch Pro 2 which i regret buying), but the Atrix totally blows the inspire out of the water when it comes to performance and that's a major key when buying a phone, yea the outside of the phone is important to, but you wouldn't buy a Ferrari with the engine of a pinto lol, so definitly go with the Atrix
Thsnks a lot i think im go to att today and getthe atrix

All the so called issues u are referring to can be fixed by flashing a custom rom. I was torn between making a decision but I chose the inspire because the atrix clearly lacks dev support. I like modding and overclocking. The atrix looks like a beast but there are no true mods for it. Who wants gingerblur? Lol
Sent From My T-Mobile Inspire HD Using XDA Premium App
But I would suggest watching videos and looking in forums because you may want the phone for diff reasons. I buy phones based on what it can do after root.

Had an inspire, tried like 4 roms, audio fixes, OCing, and cm7. Same story crappy to almost acceptable battery life, low volume, bogs even with a 1.8 oc because it's still a single core cpu, almost no internal media storage, and slower ddr ram.
The only things the inspire has over the atrix imo is bigger screen (which could go either way based on preference)and hsupa (which att is enabling 4g in april supposedly so thats valid for only another month). I'd mention roms as a plus but all the do is try to fix the crap already wrong with the phone.

Don't know if anyone has posted this or not, but the size is what made me go with the Atrix. The Inspire made me shift my hand to reach the unlock button, then shift again to reach the home or back button. The Atrix just fits.

Thanks for the reply. What I noticed is that the Samsung has less RAM.
Samsung phones suck. Big time. No way in hell would I trade my phone for that piece if crap.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
i agree with the other posters...i had a samsung phone...never again...support sucks and will continue to suck
Actually, my girl has this phone, and has had no problems with it at all. while ive had to warranty out mine over four times now (mt4g), she hasnt even had a problem with it. if you are looking for something new, it wouldnt be a bad trade.
Agree with the rest..
The only products that Samsung makes that are decent are their dumbphones and the Galaxy Tab... Keep the MT4G and wait for the next gen on HTC phones...
My friend has a galaxy 4g, and we did a few tests:
Web browsing : glacier is faster
Camera: glacier is much faster, by that i mean the time from unlock to actually have a photo taken, i prob could have taken a pic and put my phone away before he takes a pic. but galaxy has builtin stitch but no flash.
Screen: i like the lcd better than led, the led has a blue tint to it unless you are looking straight on, the old galaxy had settings for tuning color, but cant find it in the 4g one.
Speaker : galaxy won for sure, glacier 's speaker is a joke.
Wifi module : galaxy can get on wifi within 5 seconds, my glacier takes at least 10, if not 15.
I am starting to like soft keys but rather have a track pad and deal with the clicking.
Mods: from what i have heard, galaxy doesn't have much of development.
TLR = no. Keep the myTouch 4G

Not much... ram is important, the more the merrier. Cpu you can always overclock but with ram you are stuck with whatever built-in. Besides, htc vs samsuck is no comparison at all. Just my 2 pennies

I got the original vibrant and I'm waiting for my new mt4g to come in the mail tomorrow!! Overall the vibrant (original) is a great phone, it has 16 gigs of internal storage along with my 16 gig micro SD. But with the bad gps and the lack of updates and support from T-Mobile and Samsung. I got it from day one. I wouldnt still have it if it wasn't for the awesome devs on xda.

I've had this phone since October.. and battery life was meh, obviously.
About a month ago I switched to SRF Frozen, and the battery life was great. I was consistently getting 3 hours of screen on time throuh 12 hours use.
Then just out of nowhere, a couple days ago I've been getting 4 hours of screen on time and my phone lasting 16-20 hours.
I'm baffled, but in no way disappointed. I just found it really strange because I haven't downloaded any new apps in forever, and haven't changed my settings or usage at all.

I'm buying my dad an evo and I have a few questions
1)Will its battery last from 6am to 12pm with heavy calling and virtually no txts and internet use?
2) what would be good under volt settings for this phone?
thx
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
1. Yes. Six hours is fine even with really heavy usage (though every phone is different and I'm sure somebody has some horror story to refute me). Just tell him how to turn the radios off that he's not using. For me, I never use Bluetooth, rarely use WiFi, and when I do, they can be toggled on. Don't turn on 4G if you're not in a 4G area, that radio kills the battery. Just don't leave them on if you're not using them, let them be more "on demand". Rooting and getting a tweaked ROM/kernel will also help. I suggest VaelPak 3.2 with Netarchy, or better yet, Vaelpak GB with SavagedZen. See my sig for a link if you're interested.
2. Most people are good with -75mV, some can go higher (100 to 125 in one or two cases) but -75 seems to be the consensus. In addition, you can set different min/max CPU speeds (this is a native option in the latest VP GB beta). That way, the CPU will scale its speed based on usage. Most people go somewhere around 245mHz min to 998mHz max, or you can overclock a bit, or you can underclock so the max is only in the 500-600s. It actually doesn't make a noticeable difference in performance for some people, unless you're gaming and then you can bump it up again anyway.
LOTS of stuff to play around with to get the best battery vs. performance balance.

No.
And as far as the phone lasting from 6 A.M. to 12 P.M. .... I believe it has about 6 hours of talk time (continuous). Take that for what it is, and given his situation. Can he not utilize a charger? Situation won't allow? As said, there are things that can be done to help 'manage' battery life, but that isn't going to yield some insane results. If he doesn't need data he could disable data, keep voice open, and see how that goes. I couldn't see that necessarily doubling the talk time. As mentioned, also, you can trial it for 30 days.
edit: slow on the draw
Maybe the Evo isn't right for him. Especially if you can't wrestle it from his old man grip for a return. Could a BB do?
He doesn't like bb because of the small buttons
I think I might just buy him an extra battery car charger and then under volt it od
