You can flash an RUU to return it to complete stock. You can find the RUU's at http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vision

You'll most probably need a goldcard though

ok can i flash an earlier rom? or would it be best to go back to gingerbread

?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
if you managed to run misc_version properly, you can flash an earlier rom. Otherwise you'll have to go for the gingerbread one (2.42 I think)

Attention!

In light of all the posts that are deleted and/or closed due to many off-topic posts about what device a person should buy, I have created this official thread.

Although XDA is not a place to extensively talk about what device person should buy, some forums permit it. So to help keep the threads a little cleaner, you may post your questions here.

Granted there are other sites more into device reviews and comparisons, but in the interest of keeping some people happy, and to avoid getting posts deleted, this thread is created for people who have no idea what device to get.

In the end, you should still march your happy self to a shop, and play with the devices that are available. Only then will you be satisfied with your purchase.

[HTC Inspire 4G] luciano.chavez:
Not sure about where he got his but I bought my wife one last year for that price from someone I found on craigslist that had it a short while before they switched carriers. It was like new and with a case. My wife still won't let me flash it was a custom ICS ROM though. :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] Lazarus65:
I could sell you mine for $150 when I get the Xperia Ion. It's pretty much brand new, since I got a replacement from AT&T because of a defect that was covered by my warranty. I even have a CaseMate hard case, and screen protector.

P.S.

Who else is getting the Xperia Ion over the One XL from AT&T?

I want to get Galaxy Nexus

I am tempted to get the unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus. I wish it had more than 16 GB or be able to have an sd card but I could live with that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PeteSeiler2010:
I am on the fence right now, I can upgrade next month and I am just torn as to what phone to get. I bought my inspire off craigslist a few months ago and I love it, so I am thinking of going with the One-X, but I also have heard that the new Nexus phone could be released for all carriers this year. Hearing that, I may have to hold onto the Inspire a while longer.
[HTC Inspire 4G] djbxp:
Since my economics are not that good, i usually get previous generation devices because the price is under the half of the initial cost.

I choose a device that can get the ICS after rooting and has pretty good performance. This is the INSPIRE 4G. Beautiful and capable.

Some guy on AT&T network go to WiMax technology with Evo, and gave the Inspire 4G on ebay because is working with Sim card. He said that he used it only for 5 days on a trip to Europe. Buy now price 269 USD including 8GB memory card, + 9,3 USD for a 16GB memory card, +1,8 for a silicon case.

So with under 300 USD i have a strong device in my pocket which has nothing to be jealous of the new devices with updated ICS.

[HTC Inspire 4G] schinner16:
Easy, get or stick with the Inspire 4G

Only drawback is lame battery life but in all honesty I still prefer mine over any newer phone....mine is rooted and allows me to tailor it to my liking.

And yes, I have played with a Galaxy s3 or Iphone 4,4s,5 or note 2....every single one doesn't have the snappiness of my inspire running MIUI

Inspire has the removable battery and memory card......not too common with newer phones.....
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nick281051:
I'm sorry, I loved my inspire to death but it simply doesn't hold a candle to the note 2 and s3 in terms of smoothness. The inspire, unfortunately, has been surpassed and is nearly two years old at this point.

pre order the htc one!!!!

wel, i had the atrix 4g and did alot with it. now i got the atrix 2. i like it more in terms of camera screen and overall feel and preformance, but this bootloader it bringing me down in terms of wanting more out of this awesome phone. so, with that said....around the ninth of may i will be leaving the atrix 2 threads as i have just pre ordered a htc one on at@t and will be moving there. the atrix 2 is going to a good friend as we are on aplan together but he has no knowledge of android so seeing that its already rooted and has a custom rom im sure ill he back off and on keeping him up to date with the latest and greatest i know this phone will get here soon. thanks devs for all the hard work for this device and maybe ill see a few of you in the htc one threads.

Galaxy S III

Guys what do you think? Is it worth it to buy Galaxy S III right now?? Later? Or don't buy it at all?!
[Motorola Atrix 2] StrizzMatik:
I'd get a Nexus just because the SIII is basically a beefier Nexus with TouchWiz 4.0 instead of straight ICS, but that's more personal preference than anything.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
The Galaxy S III will be a great phone, they rooted it before it was even released and they already have an insecure kernel and boot image, so if you like ROMs and flashing. then that is the phone to get.

I will have a Galaxy S III the day it is released. I am in no way getting rid of the Atrix2, it will no longer be my daily driver, so I can hack the crap out the Atrix2, and get us some more great things, without having to worry about not being able to use my phone for an extended period of time, if I want to work on something over a whole weekend or something.
[Motorola Atrix 2] troycarpenter:
This is the boat I am in...my screen has gone bonkers, and my IT group wants to replace my Atrix with the Atrix 2. I had written off the A2 when they first gave me a choice...but this time I don't have a choice. Too bad because I have just about all the OG Atrix docks (car, lapdock, standard, HD, etc).

What I really want to know is whether or not I can modify the unit. With the OG Atrix now starting to see ICS with CM9 and AOKP, what will I be missing with the A2?
[Motorola Atrix 2] kc92iyngr:
S3 or One X w'd be better choice

s3 comes with cheap build quality and One X lags in spite of its Quad core factor.
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Honestly they are looking like the 2 strong contenders..... Sg3 boast a bit more cutting edge features and looks like one x does not have sd storage:confused:????? If I had the choice it would be Sg3 all day..... All boils down to preferences and needs do you need all Sg3 offers or would one x work for you.....
[Motorola Atrix 2] GaganPla:
every htc phone sux in battery department....while SG3 Luks cheapish 4 a very high end phone ....i think sg2 is best and since price have gone down it more of a better choice...it can do everything what sg3 nd htc one x do....the only thing i t lacks is a hd display ....but seriously i saw htc one x nd SG2 hand to hand nd i dont notice any diffence in display pixel density....both look same....nothing big difference its just a hype of hd nothing more ......

[Motorola Atrix 2] aguacateojos:
Shoot, I would take that offer.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I've posted my MB865 both on eBay and on Craig's List, and no takers. I've set the price very low and still have no luck trying to offload it. Guess I will just choke down the $199.00 from AT&T with a new 2 year for the SGS3.

C'es la vie... :rolleyes:
[Motorola Atrix 2] RowanOak:
Best Buy will probably buy it from you. Now I'm glad that I got the "buyback guarantee" thing. Once my contract is up I'll get about $150 for it to put towards another phone...more if I go in earlier. Earlier's looking good.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdhoggattjr:
just wandering what you want to do that you can't with the A2 besides use a new rom everyday?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
AOSP and AOKP are not going to work unless we unlock the bootloader. That is what I really like... I think blur is clumsy and fat...

The ONLY things about this phone that are great is that it is solid, and the battery is amazing.

Developing anything on this phone is a pain... my sgs 3 will be here tomorrow or tues at the latest, and I already have a kernel and cm9 compiled and ready to test and release over there.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aguacateojos:
I've seen this mentioned a couple of times and am curious - does Best Buy only buy back phones purchased from their store, or could I turn in my Atrix 2 purchased from an AT&T location?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
No it does not have to have been bought at a best buy. I traded my HTC inspire that I bought at an AT&T corp store for the A2 and I had money left to buy a 32GB and a 64GB SDcard.

So basically I got the A2 and a 32GB SDcard, and a 64GB SDcard all for trading in my HTC Inspire 4g that was bought for 99 bucks at an AT&T corp store. So basically the phone was free and they gave me 2 SDcards with it...

Now I will say if you have ANY issues BB will screw you over, so be careful, and if you have an issue they will MAKE you get a geek squad monthly support contract... I told them to F-off, and took the first A2 that broke into the AT&T Corp store right across the street and AT&T still took care of me.

Oh, and I bought my SGS 3 from the AT&T website... no more BB after the issues with support even though it was 32 days after purchase.

I will say though, that if you need to trade your phone in to get another one, for money reasons, BB is the place to go. I have heard of certain AT&T corp stores doing trade ins, but the ones around me have never done that.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aguacateojos:
Thanks for the information - I'm not due for an upgrade until ~ February of next year and I suppose I'll just tough it out until then. I've been scouring Craigslist around my region for a decently priced GSM unlocked Nexus but not having any luck... it might not hurt to wait for my next corporate-assisted upgrade, though, because there will probably be a slew of new phones on the market.
[Motorola Atrix 2] chrisn91:
So I got a upgrade, is everyone still leaning towards the sg3. I was looking at the HTC one feel like a kid at the candy store lol
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
I LOVE my SGS 3, nuff said!! The issues I had with the one x and why I did not get one, is no sdcard slot, and no battery removal, in case you like to carry and extra, like I do when I go someplace, I just put and extra fully charged battery in my computer backpack.

I get 48 hours on a charge with my SGS 3 and CM9/CM10 right now... The SGS 3 has Official Cyanogenmod, and the one x does not.
[Motorola Atrix 2] mikea29:
I heard the HTC One has a built in battery and does not have a spot for an sd card...deal breaker for me
[Motorola Atrix 2] chrisn91:
I like being able to swap out batteries when I'm out doing training
[Motorola Atrix 2] shinydesert:
I am receiving my Galaxy Nexus tomorrow,it is not the SG3,but I got tired of spending lots of money; both devices have excellent support,so I will be very happy with either one.

As for my Atrix 2; I will use it as a backup phone,it works even better now with your ICS leak Mr. jimbridgman. It is a great phone that I wanna keep.
[Motorola Atrix 2] xploited:

Galaxy Nexus is really the smartest buy at the moment. I see no point in splashing 600$ on a Galaxy S3 knowing it will lose half of it's value in 6 months, like the Galaxy Nexus did.

We are talking about off contract prices. With contract, you will pay the full price of the phone one way or another.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
How is that? I get a new phone every 6 months, and bill has not changed one penny since 2007 or so now... And I have been getting a new phone every six months on contract for 10 or so years now from AT&T.

I figure they are in the whole way worse than me now...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I know what you were talking about, I'm not an idiot- I was just rubbing it in. :p

+1 I've never heard of anyone paying full price for a phone with an upgrade or new two-year service contract. In 5 years I've had no price hike in my bill either, so I too can attest test AT&T isn't somehow 'making' me pay full price for phones I buy...

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 Anti-MOTO Ballistic Missile
[Motorola Atrix 2] mikea29:
How do you get a phone every 6 months? You dont mean that you get one with a contract price every 6 months, do you?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Yes I do. I have been an AT&T customer since 99 and pretty much when I ask for something the answer is 99% of the time sure we can do that for you. I just walk in and say I would like and upgrade. Let me see what I can do, I am sorry but you don't have an upgrade. I always say are you sure can you get your manager, I have been a customer since 99... The manager comes over looks at the screen then few clicks of the mouse and few keyboard types and, Mr. Bridgman which phone would you like for your upgrade.

Works every time for me.

Now in the last 3 years I don't even have to ask for a manager they just show up in my account... I have 2 lines one is my line the other is the Wif's and we have a data card and att fiber to the house internet, so no multi line upgrades or any junk like that, and I can never use her upgrade or I lose a testicle.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Infekxion:
Same here. Haven't been a customer as long as you have but I know for a fact if you have a decent bundle with them, they take very good care of you. I got my One X for free just by asking.
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
What did you say? I pay AT&T almost $650 a month for internet/TV/Mobile phones every month and have been a customer for almost 4 years. Also, How does the One X compare to the Atrix 2 and have you ever run ICS on the Atrix 2? I have an upgrade coming in 3 weeks.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
All you have to do is ask. I think I spend about 400 a month myself and I always just ask... if you are 3 weeks away they will most likely give it to you now if you ask. The worst they can say is no. That is what I used to ask every 6 months and no one ever said no to me. Now they just show up in my account every 6 months with out fail, 2 upgrades.
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
Good to know! AT&T has been good to me in the past and I know it works both ways. I always get a more attentive rep after they pull up my account. Loyalty is rewarded, as it should be in these uncertain economic times.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Infekxion:
I have yet to play with ICS on the Atrix 2 but I have a LATAM RAZR with it, I never liked Moto but with Googles acquisition I'm becoming more open. I love my X, even passed up the SGS III and I'm a die hard Samsung but my GNex keeps me happy. Also my monthly bills are childs play compared to yours. $350 is the max I've ever payed.
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
So what swayed you toward the One X instead of the Galaxy S3?

Edit: I'm considering the One X as well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Infekxion:
Kinda some dumb reasons but I don't like the home button and the fact that Samsung didn't stick to the framework Google said to (the capacitive keys). Also the should have made a black version.
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
So now that I've had a chance to do a hands-on with both the GS3 and the One X and the ATRIX 2 with ICS I have to say I am re-thinking all this. To me the ATRIX 2 runs everything I need it to just fine with ICS. The obvious consideration is being able to run custom ROMs + kernels. That said, a new contender appears. The Galaxy Nexus 4G from Verizon. I'm a little confused. Its an LTE equipped phone. Does that mean I can run it on the AT&T network like that? If not, will it be stuck on EDGE unless I'm on wifi?

Okay, I just learned AT&T has their own version but doesn't mention LTE. Price point (tax only), AOKP and Cyanogen's ROMs are the two big selling features for me. Also NFC. Is this a worthy contender anymore to anybody else?

The main benefit for me getting the Nexus 4G would be keeping the ATRIX 2, not having to use it as trade-in fodder.
