iPhone 3GS

iPhone 4

HTC Inspire.

I am totally impressed with the build quality and UI of HTC. If AT&T wouldn't have been stupid and limited the Amazon App store I would probably still be stock. Thanks to them for opening my eyes to the wonderful world of Rooting. Thanks to everybody on XDA for helping me through it!

Coming from iPhone has been interesting. I'm not an Apple hater, and I think the iPhone is a solid choice, but I like to be able to tinker, and the options with Android is limitless.

My first smart phone was the LG Incite an absolute piece of garbage if it wasn't for the buggy software to the hardware defects.

Then i started my love affair with Blackberry first was my Curve 8310 one of the most reliable phones i have ever owned still works like a charm today. Then i got a Blackberry Storm solid phone still works well although the stock software is yet to be desired.

Next i bought a Captivate. Overall really good phone despite is drawbacks. Love the development community for the Cappy. Turned an otherwise good phone into a really good phone.

and last but not least my Inspire 4G. Haven't had it long but one thing i do like is the build quality. It's a nice looking solid built phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kravguy:
LG Incite was my first as well (not including all the non smartphones). I don't have the bad feelings about it though like most seem to have. It was what it was... an entry level windows mobile phone. With the right rom and tweaks, it worked fine for me.

Next, the HTC Pure. Another good windows mobile phone and like all windows mobile phones, took a lot of tweaking to get working well. Tried Android on it but never did care for it. Actually turned me off of Android because of it.

And then came the Inspire. I actually wasn't even paying attention to what was coming out to Att. After they had the captivate (which I almost got but unluckily, or luckily, had some expenses come up that prevented me from getting it), I just stopped looking to upgrade. Well... some ad or something popped up while on the net at work one day and the next day I was walking out of an Att store with the Inspire. 1 week later, after some Android 101.. I was rooted with the hack kit and couldn't be happier. Finally got a radio that gets me a good signal (that was a bit frightening when I first got it) and it is sooo freakin solid now. Absolutely no issues.

I'm only 13 and I first had an LG xenon for about 15 days then traded it in for an iPhone 3G because it was the same price but after about a year I got an iPhone 4 for my birthday but about 3 months later it got stolen from my schools office so i went back to my 3G for about 6 months then got the Atrix and absolutely hated the locked bootloader and that it was slow and buggy so I traded it in for the inspire and love it, and currently running ingerscroll 2.4

I am only going to post smartphones, because frankly, it really didn't matter what kind of phone it was before smartphones... you either had a flip phone or a non flip phone.

HTC Tilt I

Blackberry Bold 9000

Blackberry Bold 9700

Samsung Captivate

Out of those, not that the Tilt was a bad phone in its day, but I liked that one the least out of all of them. It was a first generation touchscreen smartphone. I liked that the screen tilted and loved the qwerty keyboard, but that was about it. The phone was a brick, and it got annoying that you had to use the stylus for almost everything. And of course, it had Windows Mobile 5 or 6. Don't remember which one. Loved the Blackberrys, but unfortunetly, Blackberry fell behind in smartphone technology, which is why I jumped ship to Android.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chuck517:
My last phone was the Epix. Overall it was a well built phone, but my messing around with the software and drooping it a few times led to my favorite error message ever. All it said was "Phone: fail" it was at that point I decided it was time for an upgrade.

[HTC Inspire 4G] MartyLK:
Worst

I've had two of the most horrendous phones ever cursed on the world, the

Palm Treo 680 (unlocked) and the Blackberry Pearl Flip

. I truly believe the Treo 680 helped kill Palm. It was a $400 waste of money down the toilet. Always freezing, always cutting out on calls, always crashing. My brother and I bought one each at the same time...well...within a weeks time...and they both did the same thing.

Then there was the BB Pearl Flip. Complete POS, to put it super mildly. The UI was horrendous, the battery life got to the point where it lasted less than a day in standby mode with no wireless on except the cell radio....and completely unused. Changed out the battery for a new one and made no difference. It was so bad I swore never to look at Blackberrys again.

Best

The best phone I ever acquired, and still lovingly have, is the T-Mobile US HTC HD2. It has been nothing short of purely outstanding. I can use any ROM coded for it and the fun factor is over the roof. Super reliable and trouble-free.

My current favorite phone, though, is the Samsung Focus. I **** you not, the Focus has grown on me daily. The style seems to get more appealing everyday of owning it. I love looking at it and it feels so nice to hold. The slenderness is superb. Since the NoDo/firmware update, WP7 has been the best mobile OS I ever had the good fortune to use.

But my HTC Inspire continues to impress me. Such a well-built phone and Android with HTC Sense 2.0 is so smooth. I've tried other launchers with it but I come back to Sense because the smoothness and reliability just can't be beat.

Then there is my iPhone 4. :) I began my iPhone love with the purchase of an original first gen iPhone not long after they launched. It was such a relief finally having something reliable and usable. I came from the friggin Palm Treo 680 and back in those days...before the iPhone existed...there was nothing even remotely as good as the iPhone showed to be. When the iPhone launched, it was like a dramatic relief from the super-crappy offerings available and shoved down our throats. ...speaking only of smartphones. I so completely loved the iPhone experience from day 1.

Now I have an iPhone 4 and can't believe how wonderful this little piece of artwork is. The build quality is second to none. The elegance is over-flowing. The reliability is pure and the performance is the best there is. My iPhone 4 is and will always be my main phone. I made the mistake of leaving home without it one time and regretted it. I decided I wanted to take my Inspire with me and leave the iPhone at home. It happened that I needed to use my downloaded compass and also the Google maps and neither one of those functions worked for me. I was so glad I had a sense of the direction because if I had relied on the compass...the maps wouldn't even display...we would have been lost. That was the first and last time I will leave home without my iPhone. I will have a minimum of 2 phones with me and my iPhone 4 will be one.

HAHAHHAHAHA I had the LG Vu and then got the Blackberry Bold 9000 then the 9700.

Yeah the LG Vu was crap. It was pretty durbale. Lasted a while before I got annoyed with it and shot it... (literally). My BEST was the HTC Touch Pro with WinMobile 6.5 TAEL ROM.... oooh and Android 2.1. The Atrix will be the best Android phone once we get the Bootloader signature... we then will be able to unleash the beast! :D

[HTC Inspire 4G] ranjo65:
My first smart phone was a Motorola Q9c (during my Sprint days) and, WinMo notwithstanding, I absolutely loved this phone. Loved the keyboard, battery life was outstanding (thank you Sprint for the extended battery + giant hump on the back of the phone!)

For the minute that I was with Verizon I had an LG something-or-other.

On AT&T it's been:

1. iPhone 3G (gave to daughter)

2. Tilt 2 (sold)

3. iPhone 3GS (gave to daughter)

4. Captivate (still have)

5. Blackberry Torch (a brief and disappointing flirtation)

6. HTC Inspire 4G (Love. This. Phone.)
[EVO 4G General] jdh10475:
I tried to use my Sling player app at work today and it was a no go. I thought since I had not used it in a while maybe something was unplugged at my house. When I got home I checked and every thing was good. So I connected my phone to my home wifi and the app works like a champ so I know my setup it good. But if I try on 3 or 4G the apps says locating... connecting... but than I get connection failed??:confused:

I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue or is maybe Sprint blocking my connection like the issue with the Sirius XM app. I've uninstalled the app rebooted my phone cleared the data from the app pretty much tried anything I can think of.

Can some one check and see if your app is working on 3G or 4G and post back. Thanks.

My slingbox app (1.2) works fine on any network, 3g/4g/wifi.
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
I'm on 1.2 and it works on 3G but it lags and it sucks. It does now, anyway.....it was fine before the network got overloaded. 4G or WiFi is the only way to go for me.

Did you have a good 4G signal when you tried it? I've noticed that with poor or slow connections, it will time out when connecting and give you an error. I think it's a network issue and not the app.
[EVO 4G General] huludical:
It works for me. Usually when it doesn't its a problem on the slingbox end and I need to call someone who is at home to reset it. This actually happens pretty often.

I unplugged everything and put it back together and it is now working. Thanks to the community for the help and input.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MindSplit:
All i want to do is root my phone. I have read quite a few articles on it, as well as pros and cons. Searching was also done so don't attack me with the "use the search feature" line. Reading too deep into the rabbit hole proved that anything beyond rooting (although highly beneficial and likely to attempt in the future) was too overwhelming for my busy work schedule. I'm aware of the different methods to achieve root, but I'm still unsure as to whether or not i will lose any data at all, such as app, sms, contacts, call logs, etc.

Any info as to how to root my Evo without losing any data would be greatly appreciated. My main reason is to finally get rid of the Nova app along with others, and to have full control of my phone while i slowly learn from these forums.

P.S. I apologize for being #1,000,000 to ask on this topic.:o
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MindSplit:
bump! i hope i didnt screw the process up
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emcp422:
bump? ok if you already managed to install the drivers, make sure your phone has usb debug on, you do that in settings, apps, development. also make sure you have othe sources checked, you do that on settings, apps.

no turn your antivirus off on your computer

if you installed htc sync uninstall it

now plug your phone to pc( if it prompts you to select type of connection only charge)

then right click on the file that is unrevoked and run as administrator, follow unscreen intructions and done.

mine was automatic so i didnt need to do anything after i ran it.

good luck

ok last question it says done but my phone is on a clockworkmod recovery screen how do i just load my phone up and use it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emcp422:
sorry late reply you always get out of recovery with the reboot now option, also you should instal titanium back up so you can back up your apps and get busy box, which you need on your phone so it doesnt lag after root, once installed titanium , open it up, it will probably say you need root, if it does dont mind it you have root, at the bottom you will see a box that says problems, hit it and it will ask you to install busy box, hit yes and you are done, hope procedure is easy and you can do it if not click my user name and send me a message

As the topic,I' new...How to root,now I'm KA6,and I'm afraid that if update,my root will don't work and I know that must disable the voodoo,but how can I voodoo again next?Waiting for answer....Thank You... :p:p
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mailboy1412:
update to a new rom in most case won't require you to disable voodoo or reroot. If you have ClockworkRecovery and root, you can install new roms easily. Just follow instructions.

In most cases, this is Put the zip rom file in SDCARD, reboot to recovery, wipe data, install the zip file and reboot.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849028

Agreed! most ROMs will come with voodoo enabled so disabling of voodoo is generally not required before flashing a new ROM. Always read the OP ENTIRELY of the ROM ur about to flash, each dev will clearly state the need to disable voodoo or not.

Also its good practce to be clearing all 4 settings in CwMRecovery when flashing new ROMs. Good luck!:)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheScream:
I ordered via AmazonWireless's "Replacement Phone" option to get one to Australia and received is about 1.5 months ago and its been okay so far.

I'm on Telstra (Australia) which primarily uses 850MHz (UMTS/WCDMA/HSPA/HSPA+).

As there has been leaked Telstra ROM, I'm wondering if there is actually anything different between the devices other than the ROM, and if so, if I can flash the SBF from the Telstra/Bell devices onto my Atrix without causing issues.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IrshaadH:
After reading some of these threads it seems that the Telstra SBF is incompatible with the AT&T atrix. After my own experience with flashing this to the Bell Atrix, I've come to the conclusion that there seems to be an American version of the Atrix as well as an international version. This is because the Atrix can either be recognized as NS Olympus or SE Olympus through RSD Lite. Since my Atrix, as well as other who have successfully flashed theirs with the Telstra SBF have the SE version, it seems that this may be the only one compatible with the Australian firmware.

If you ordered your phone through Amazon, it is likely that you have the NS version. You can verify by downloading RSD Lite, plugging in your phone while in RSD mode and seeing what shows up on your computer.

Sorry noob question. I have flashed sense and Aosp roms but it seems 3g signal strength isn't as great as a sense rom. I get 1 or 2 bars on Aosp vs full bars on sense.

Why the two signal strengths?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SouthernEvo:
Sense Roms generally measure 2G strength (voice) while AOSP shows 3G strength (data) thats why you see a big difference in signal strength . Mostly Sense tells you , you have more signal then AOSP does .

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RLMJr77:
I know you are probably wondering why would someone want to increase the amount of time it takes to boot up their Epic. This is not the case, I simply want to increase the amount of time given before the lock screen appears for the boot animation to continue playing. When my phone stops playing the boot animation and goes to the lock screen it is still not completely up and running. So I'd rather watch the boot screen animation continue to run rather then go to the lock screen where when I unlock it still shows widgets loading and such.

Thanks for help.

It is possibly the "Root" app is installing older script (busybox old version?) that might not function fully enough on your phone.
