Just ordered new s3 from target on 199. No rebates. Cases from ebay.

Being lil more dramatic but thought i must say thank to this forum for such great time with s2 .

Thank you great dev like TDJ and Whitehawkx and all other devs for making this phone such great. Without you guys this would be so incomplete.

Hope to see you guys there too.

Have a wounderful development ahead.

Is that the stock rom
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treygrizzard26:
Its not AT&T stock, but its one of the leaked firmwares. Basically the same thing, but the baseband version is different. If you want to get the AT&T stock GB rom, downgrade to Froyo (KB2) through Heimdall. Note that you don't need to change bootloaders since GB bootloaders are backwards compatible. Once that's done, you can go through Kies to upgrade your firmware to AT&T GB (KK4).

Massive off topic: Guys, make sure you all have smoke alarms in your home. Just saved my & my girlfriend's life. Accidentally turned the oven on (fckng ridiculous in itself that you can flick the buttons on that easily..) max. Lid was down, towel that was on it started burning half an hour later. Girlfriend was sleeping (3 am here), I should have been as well.

I noticed the smell in my computer room, 5 seconds later the alarm started. Threw the towel in the sink, have now everything open to get the smoke out.

Without it..? Fck knows..

They're at most 10$ / piece. Just saved two lives probably. Get them tomorrow !!

I've been in a similar situation before, sort of managed to keep my calm. And I was awake already. But my girlfriend, she was sleeping. Holy fck, poor girl.. She'll remember this for a good while.

[Off-topic] WiredPirate:
Thanks OP, good advice!

Kind of related.. I left a candle burning on my coffee table without thinking about it, jumped in the shower for 10 minutes and when I got out the WHOLE candle was on fire! I've never seen anything like it. Didn't even know it was possible.

So don't forget to blow out you candles as well, even if your only going to be out of the room for a few minutes.

5 years ago, just closed the pub at 3 am. While waiting for the bartender who's on the phone fighting with his girl, I'm checking the window of a little furniture & gift shop across the road. I'm thinking, "hm, there's a bit of smoke in there. Ow, and a candle. OW, the fckng decoration curtain that is above it is burning!!". Called fire brigade, instant almost response, place saved with minor smoke damage. No insurance would have ever covered the stupid young girl's mistake to leave a huge candle burning after close. Poor people are still trying to give me discounts whenever I buy gifts.

Buy smoke alarms! Or have alert bar staff across the road..!! :p

P.S. Hate candles passionately..
[Off-topic] mrsbelpit:
Scary stuff! Glad you guys are ok. Be sure to test your smoke detectors every 6 months as well. In the US, daylight savings time is the standard reminder. Do you have something like that in your country?

I think my next move would be replacing that oven.
[Off-topic] Vangelis13:
Good idea!

The alarms I have though do produce a short peep (very loud) as soon as the battery starts getting low. I just changed the battery in one of them actually. And, proactively, the one in the alarm that just went off.. :)

[Motorola Atrix HD] rtg293:
Okay simple question here, have a chance to buy a brand new sealed Atrix HD for $350. Just looking for some input on what you guys would do, to help me decide. Thanks in advance!
[Motorola Atrix HD] Kedakari:
If you want a phone with Top of the line Hardware and ICS that runs smooth and looks pretty stock. Then yes, the Atrix HD is a sexy phone.

If you are looking for a development community and want to do some flashing and Rom'ing then look for another phone.

I'd write more on this subject, but you are asking a question we have gone over a million times since the phone was released.

Look through the Atrix HD General forum. You will see a lot of post from SGS3 owners and HTC One X owners who returned their phones for the Atrix HD.

Atrix HD Cons:

Battery life is acceptable. But weak.

No NFC chip. (oh darn)

No FM Tuner (meh)

Camera Quality is effected tremendously by lighting conditions.

Battery Cannot be removed, charge time is slow. (no options for extended batteries and no keeping spare around)

No Root access.

Locked Bootloader. ( because of this, we have no root, no custom firmware or tweaked Kernels, and no ROMS!!!)

Look through the rest of the forum please. There is so much on the subject already so check it out for yourself.
[Motorola Atrix HD] colts187:
For that price? Definitely
[Motorola Atrix HD] rtg293:
Meh, the development side will come with time, both atrix(es?) had locked bootloaders, so I expected nothing less with this one. We all just get to sit around the campfire and sing kumbaya until the webkit is realeased :). NFC or FM aren't really issues at the moment, I'm in rural (and when I say rural, I mean RURAL) Virginia, me and possibly 20 other people in this town even know what NFC stands for :). About the ONLY issue I've read about so far is that darn battery! Come on now Moto!

LoL my thoughts exactly, almost too good NOT to get.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Kedakari:
I didnt want to seem like a fan boy that would give you biased information. So I just gave you the cons and let you decide on your own.

I'm between Northern VA and Washington DC in the over developed Tysons area. So NFC and all that Jazz is picking up.

This area is like the east coast's version of Beverly Hills. EVERYONE around here either has the SGS3 or an Iphone.

Looking at the prices for off contract phones, I'd say you have a really good deal.

Get it, its a nice phone and it'll do what it was engineered to do.

As for boot loaders being unlocked, I think it was only the Original Atrix and the Atrix 4g that got unlocked. The Atrix 2 (The phone I upgraded from) Still has a locked bootloader, and STILL has no ICS.

My one and only complaint is that I had a lapdock that I could no longer use because Webtop OS was removed.

I could careless for the bootloader as I dont like messing with non-stock firmware and kernels.

I'd really like to see this phone being rooted because this phone has a lot of potential just in editing the build.prop to be a much better performing phone than the SGS3

Anyways, thats just my 2 cents.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wirelessgirl:
Yea for that price, it's too good to pass up. Plus Motorola is the best when it comes to RF and call quality. I keep hearing the build quality on

the Atrix HD is excellent. It's coming to Canada next week! You bet I'll be getting it. :)
[Motorola Atrix HD] madlaw1071:
If $49 is all you can afford the Atrix is a good choice. If you can afford $199 the Gs3 is the superior device. Bigger screen, bigger battery, double the RAM, superior camera in all lighting conditions, more dev support, NFC. If you dont like touchwiz, plenty of free launchers. If you don't like the plastic, easy to put a case on. Much harder to fix the shortcomings on the Atrix.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Semseddin:
350$ is a great deal for this phone. I wouldn't miss it.
[Motorola Atrix HD] curly9:
My opinion when i got the s3 i missed my 1x like no other then returned the s3 and went back to the 1x i sold my 1x to get this and havent missed it yet. The only thing im not liking that much is battery life but i can live with that. With the 1x i could easily make it through a day with 5 hour's screen on time with root 3 without root. So im getting about the same time without root. The screen is amazing to me i like it better than fhe 1x and s3 but thats just my opinion. This is an amazing phone for the price
[Motorola Atrix HD] Notacop:
I was in the same boat. I was selling my Atrix 4G with lapdock, car dock, standard dock and a few accessories for $350, planning on upgrading to a galaxy S3 with the proceeds. I got an offer to trade straight up for an Atrix HD (no contract renewal required!) and I took it. I have only played with the phone for an hour or two so far and all seems great.

And... if push comes to shove, I should be able to get at least $350 out of it!
[Motorola Atrix HD] Gadgetz:
Wow, HOX and GS3 users returned to get Atrix HD?! That is the perfect example of insanity. I wouldn't return my Atrix 2 for a AHD, let alone an HOX or my beloved GS3. Unlocked bootloader, removable battery, superior camera, incredible dev support, JB coming very soon, ridiculous aftermarket support.....who'd give that up for a device with pretty much the opposite of that?
[Motorola Atrix HD] colts187:
I returned my hd and got another one x cuz the battery sucketh
[Motorola Atrix HD] IP IHI II IL:
I got the AHD cause I had to... All in all, I'm kinda sorry I traded in my RAZR (which was basically a small tab, since I couldn't afford Verizon's wallet raping) for this phone... If I can afford to, I'm returning it, and getting an S III. I don't want that one either, but the options are far better...

I chose the red pill... Now I'm in the mAtrix and I know Kung Fu...

[Motorola Atrix HD] nuance4u:
This phone seems like a good value, nice build quality, great screen and nice design. Hope you don't mind me asking a few questions since I've been an iOS user for years and am an Android noob.

1. If music is imported from iTunes to this phone using the Welcome Home apps that AT&T provides, will it play in its current file format, or do I need to change the mp4 to mp3 in iTunes before transferring?

2. I have several email accounts (Yahoo, Comcast, Go Daddy) including Gmail where my contacts are stored. Is the stock email app on this phone unified and capable of adding all the accounts or do I have to use individual email apps? And does it offer both POP and IMAP types?

3. I understand the boot loader is locked but it's important to me that whatever phone I get that it can be updated to JB. Is it at all possible that Moto will update the OS?

4. Is it possible to move apps to the microSD or just photos, videos, etc?

Thanks.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ML417:
1. not sure, but aiff files definitely don't work on android phones

2. Yes, and yes, but gmail decides to also add any gmail email you add which can be annoying sometimes (turn off notifications on one of the two apps)

3. it's debateable

4. as far as i know not from stock, but if anyone knows an app that can do this, i would love to know about it.
[Motorola Atrix HD] rtg293:
Well, been away for a couple of days, so I figure everyone needs an update on my original thread topic. I ended up buying it because, well, I am a sucker for a good deal. Initial impressions were about like everyone's experience. Silky smooth, almost vanilla-"like" UI, so-so battery life. I've got to say though, after letting the battery cycle a couple of times, and installing Juice Defender (first app that goes on ANY new phone I get), the battery life has improved significantly. I've been unplugged since about 5:45am, charged about 15 minutes on my hour lunch break in the car, it's now 11pm and I am at 70% with about an hour and a half or so of internet use, about 35 minutes of Backstab HD :), and about 15 minutes of Angry Birds.

2. I can answer this partly. The stock gmail app will let you add multiple gmail accounts, so I am assuming you can multiple email accounts also. And it does offer both POP3 and IMAP types.

3. I'm willing to step out on a limb and say yes it will receive an official JB update. If Google hadn't bought Moto, then I wouldn't be near brave enough to touch this topic lol, but I feel pretty secure saying it will receive the update.

4. I know you can do it with TI Backup on other phones, but that requires root, like all "good" android apps :P, so I'm assuming it may work when someone finally roots this thing. Don't let the "free app2sd" apps fool you though, I've tested about 7 or 8 of them on my AHD so far with no luck.

---edit---

Scratch that answer for 4, apparently app2sd was a feature taken out in ICS.
[Motorola Atrix HD] nuance4u:
Yes or No

Thanks folks.. it appears nobody here has been a recent iOS user hence the unclear answer around whether I need to change the iTunes music format.. Am also wondering about ring tones since I created about a dozen using music from iTunes.

Meantime, I ordered a white AHD from Amazon and evidently due to lack of proper box labeling on Moto's part, I was shipped the wrong color twice, so we decided it was best to cancel the order until Amazon could get things figured out. It appears they have now, and showing some proper business etiquette they gave me two credits amounting to more than I paid for the phone :)

In the interim, I did some more research and read and watched some more reviews of which several reviewers thought the build quality was marginal and complained of flimsy power and volume buttons that were also loose. Has anyone here experienced this? Good to see that Juice Defender helps with the battery issue too since that is obviously another weak link.

And as you may know too, due to slower than desired sales of the HTC One X, the price is dropping to the same as the AHD on Sunday, making this is even more difficult choice, though the One X does not have a microSD slot and from what I've seen, has had some pretty major hardware issues along with a poor job with how Sense screwed up multi-tasking. Any thoughts or recommendations here? I have to wait a few days until my upgrade is reset anyway, so I'm going to take my time. Thanks.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ML417:
I was an ios user (ipod touch 4) recently, but i never bought songs from itunes, though all of my songs except the .aiff files uploaded to google music easily, so i say go ahead and try that on your computer first, if it works you should have no problem.
[Motorola Atrix HD] BunkKryptonite:
I'm a former iPhone user and currently have a HOX. I was able to use google play music on my mac to transfer my songs to google music and then sync with the phone the google play music app allows to store music on the device or cloud (similar to how the iTunes cloud worked).

As for which device is better, I have had no hardware issues with the phone. Actually the hardware is pretty impressive even without the microSD card and the camera is second to none (that includes my wife's iPhone4s). My only gripe is multitasking but that is fixable by flashing various ROMs and rumored to be fixed in the next software release based on a leaked update. And now that HTC had released source, development is likely to only pick up.

So why am I hanging out in the MAHD forum? I'm intrigued by this device and the slightly smaller screen, the unlock button on the side versus the top and new Motorola skin. In fact I'm using the MAHD launcher and widgets on one.
[Motorola Atrix HD] curly9:
I had the hox and it was osm but something about this phone i dont miss the hox. I love the size and screen is osm. Prolly just my prefference
[Motorola Atrix HD] Chcl8bananamagk:
Personally I switched over from the GS3, I can tell you that I love this phone! Just picked it up today freaking awesome. Love the display very crisp loving that Color Boost from Moto. They did a great job with this device prior to the Atrix 2 and Atrix IMO..Either way, you definitely can't go wrong with this device!:p
[Motorola Atrix HD] nuance4u:
Wow. you switched over from a GS3? Would love to know what caused you to make the switch.. Haven't seen many people do that yet.. And now that my upgrade has been reset after the fiasco with Amazon, I'm ready to get my next phone.. Just not sure whether it will be this one, or either the red GS3 or HOX. Any advise you can lend is appreciated..
[Motorola Atrix HD] Gadgetz:
Can't go wrong with a locked bootloader, irremovable battery, unimpressive battery life, unrootable as of yet, saddening camera performance and a design that copies the RAZR instead of being its own? Sounds to me like theres many areas where you can go wrong with this phone. For your guys' sake, I hope root gets achieved and u get more than 3 devs to do work for this phone. And FYI, I seen this device at Fry's for $39
[Motorola Atrix HD] nuance4u:
Gadgetz.. Just out of curiosity, why is it your troll the forums for the AHD since you're obviously a HUGE fan boy of Samsung. Do you work for them and are simply wanting people to trade them in, or do you find it important to bash people that differ with your opinion.. Nobody likes someone who needs to be right all the time do they. Phones are personal choices just like shoes, food, movies or anything else and we are ALL entitled to make a choice. That's the beauty of Android.. there's tons of choices!
[Motorola Atrix HD] curly9:
Ya idk why every phone ive ever owned came on here theres one guy will bash the phone i owned. Its ridiculous. Samsung is always the better choice? Wrong then why did i miss my one x when i had the s3. The touch wiz on it is boring and to be honest i feel as the ahd us better in all but battery but i dont care since i have a battery pack i carry around. The s3 was way too plasticy to me
[Motorola Atrix HD] Gadgetz:
So because I am posting my opinion in a public forum that differs from yours makes me a troll? Last time I checked, I can post in whatever forum I choose and can state my opinion just like everyone else so dont go hurling insults just cause you dont agree with it. I'm not insulting anyone or trying to incite rage, just stating facts. So take your valium and calm down, after all im just talking about a phone, not your mom or wife.

As for me being a huge fanboy of Samsung.....LMAO! I hate TouchWiz and this is my first Sammy smartphone. There are things about it I'd love to change....but I am a realist and no matter how much I like or dislike something I can always expose the good and bad in whatever product I'm giving my opinion on. Just like I have credited the AHD as well as criticized it....its just a mediocre device at best with some glaring deficiencies and the things Moto has done to it dont help much for those of us looking to mod our phones. The camera has always been a weak point in the Atrix line and nothing has changed with the AHD. Thats too bad cause with specs matching up similarly to the GS3, this device seemingly has the internals to be on par but it falls short not only with the hardware but with the locked bootloader and as of yet impenetrable root level security blocks, as well as Moto's habit of lying about providing bl unlocking tools to open up its incredibly protected bootloaders, many will pass on this device. The dev for the OG Atrix was phenominal, the A2, meh, the AHD im sure wont even reach meh status.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Gadgetz:
Why? Because thats your opinion and you have the right to like what you like. Many despise TW, I dont particularly care for it, but its very smooth and super fast on the GS3. But the first thing I did on mine is install Nova Prime, much happier! The HOX's crippled multitasking, non-removable battery and lack of sdcard slot make that device a non-starter for me....although the beauty of its screen cant be denied! As for the plasticky feel of the GS3....thats a fine line to toe. If different materials were used to make it feel more substansive, then the complaint would be its too heavy or too thick. I dont share your opinion on that...but even if I did it would still be a non-issue as like many, I put my phone in a case. My current setup consists of a white carbon fiber battery cover, white tpu bumper and SPG Ultra Nano Clear screen protector....my phone is well protected yet looks much better than it did stock while negligible amounts of bulk was added. I couldnt be happier with my plastic phone!
[Motorola Atrix HD] jeffdaman:
I keep seeing non-removable battery. Most of the new phones have one that is attached with screws; it's as simple as unscrewing it and ripping it away from the double sided tape they put it in with. They did this (I'm guessing) to make the phone more moisture and shock resistant. The store is telling me they did this to save space but that doesn't add up to me.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Gadgetz:
And I bet we could count on one hand how many people would do such a thing....you simplified the process tremendously, made it sound ridiculously easy when the reality is that it can be done but its certainly not an easy task.
[Motorola Atrix HD] jeffdaman:
Yes it is very easy! But why would you want to.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Gadgetz:
I dont want to, thats part of the reason I bought a GS3 with a removable battery instead of a HOX.
