Good choice. I made the exact same switch and I have been extremely happy it.

Here are a few things you might want to do:

1. Turn an SD Card into a goldcard (this will be used to downgrade to a hackable radio)

2. Follow the HTC Inspire Hack Kit to get Radio S-OFF and carrier Unlocked

3. Apply ENG S-OFF

4. Flash CyanogenMod 7 RC2 Rom

5. Flash Battery Drain Fix for CM7 and Flash the radio recommended in that thread

Was it before the timestamp on my first post? My PM's weren't going through.. I tried sending them even before you PM'ed me :( Agh stupid message board software.

Also, I had to wait 4 minutes before I could post this. Who's brilliant idea was that? They make you play some stupid flash game as the CAPTCHA equivalent and now I can't make more than 1 post every five minutes?

Grr.

Bummer... Read post, registered, did confirmation email and barely missed. Fwiw my timestamp says 1435 :p

Ah well. I've actually got that very case in my Amazon cart and was looking for reviews before buying it. Good timing, but not good enough.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
It was a good choice. I also recommend you buy a car charger, a few more AC chargers for around the house and work. You'll also want at least a 16gig SD card if you don't have one (inspire has almost no usable internal storage). I'd recommend bigger battery but the design won't allow it.

Like I tried trading my phone at the marketplace for a g2 to 3 different guys but all I got was "okay fine but in addition send me 100 as the g2 is a better device.

In what way? It has a kb but that's it what advantage
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
Because it came out at a later date and thus the G2 is newer. $100 is too much though.. at the most for a phone in the same condition I would expect 50-60 dollars difference.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
G2 is a google experience phone.. Right?
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
It all has to do with public opinion. The 2nd hand market outside of business is all public opinion. Your opinion about your vibrant and someone else's opinion vary pretty differently.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
People think that newer is always better. For example, in my area the Galaxy s 4g goes for 400.

The difference between the two is minimal except for the keyboard. But in exchange you give up the super amoled screen and better gpu (power sgx 540). So what do you use more, a keyboard or the screen?
[Vibrant General] christpuncher:
Because it is.
[Vibrant General] hitman818:
The g2 just has way more development than us. It even has honeycomb. I repect all of our devs here, they have done wonderful jobs. Its hard to do anything without much help from samsung.
[Vibrant General] Settai:
Hardware wise the vibrant is definitely better, but the G2 is as close to a developer phone you can get that's not a Nexus. Its pretty much all Google
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Right now @ Gazelle (place that buys used electronics) Vibrant 135.00 G2 85.00

G2 Is less Valuable, On Craigslist in my area Vibrant 250-275 G2 150-200
[Vibrant General] TJBunch1228:
Wow never seen it flipped like that. The G2 is worth more in every instance I have ever seen. The screen is the only thing nicer on the Vibrant. Beyond that, dev support for the G2 is way better, HTC actually cares about their customers, the phone can stably be OC'd to 1.8ghz, has better benchmarks, froyo, gingerbread, honeycomb already, not to mention right out the box, with 800mhz it is better than a 1ghz Vibrant out of the box. Won't even mention GPS...

The Vibrant is nice, if you root it and lagfix it. TeamWhiskey is really the only thing that made my Vibrant worth keeping for as long as I had it.
[Vibrant General] VeryCoolAlan:
I know I want one so bad.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
If you agree with all of that nonsense why would you post this thread asking this question if you truly think they're worth the about the same amount of money?

For me the G2 has an underperforming GPU, poor sound quality for both the speakerphone and ear piece. It has build quality issues such as paint discoloration and etc. and it runs stock Android which is not a plus for me at all. It still hasn't had 2.3 regardless of it being "stock" Android 2.2.1.. the audio quality is piss poor for music compared to the Vibrant even without Voodoo sound. The camera is a huge step down in terms of functionality and overall image/video quality. The hinge is a hot topic when it shouldn't really be up for such heated discussion at all.
[Vibrant General] ZachLL88:
Just spend the extra 100 if you want one so bad. Or sell your vibrant for like 250+ on craigs list than buy a g2. For 200. Isn't that hard. Love my vibrant and would never trade it for a.g2, but that's.just me
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
are you sure you have the right g2? there is a g2 touch (i think it' the htc hero) and then there is the desire z g2.
[Vibrant General] VeryCoolAlan:
I like the development side I still don't think its better the vibrant has all the features but better heck even the glass is better
[Vibrant General] hazard99:
Theres a g2 in my house and I've considered trading the person. frankly I consider the hardware to be much better on the vibrant than the g2. I know it will have much more support from the community and thats a plus but I cant seem to give up such a beautiful screen.
[Vibrant General] toukhang:
Isnt g2 also capable of 4g data speed?
[Vibrant General] bstes1:
Yes it will do 14.4 - 4G.
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
Because the G2 is better than the Vibrant

On paper the Vibrant is much much better than the G2. But if you actually use a G2, you will see that the G2 runs circles around the Vibrant. I have Bionix with Voodoo and it's lightning fast compared to stock, but the stock G2 is even faster. HTC's nudge-nudge, wink-wink support of the dev community is a far cry from the ignore-all-past-customers motto. And it shows in the speed and quality of the state of the dev ROMs on HTC phones.

The GPS on my Vibrant is completely unreliable. The compass has to be calibrated for each use and it's still 30-45 deg off. The G2's hinge is awful, the screen is many steps back and it can't touch the Vibrant as a media device, but in day to day operations, it just completely owns the Vibrant. Even with Bionix and Voodoo, try updating multiple apps from the Market. The Vibrant stall, stutters and will occasionally just freeze while it's installing apps. On the G2, it just keeps humming.
[Vibrant General] darkknight49:
Dunno. My wife has a G2 and I have a vibrant and its hard to say that the G2 is sooo much better than the vibrant. Its probably the poor image of samsung. HTC is practically revered because of the success of the Evo and G1 but some mighty samsung debacles have tarnished the image. I have a friend who won't buy samsung again because of a behold.
[Vibrant General] smashpunks:
Yall are crazy, vibrant kicks the g2s ass. G2, has worse gpu, worse screen, I believe less memory, dumb keyboard with a horrible hinge, smaller screen.... ill take my vibrant over a.pee2 any day of the year..
[Vibrant General] Scoobyracing03:
Where I live the G2 goes for $300-350 the Vibrant goes for $200-250

I played with the G2 at a t-mobile store and first thing I didn't like was the hinge for the keyboard. I honestly think I'd break it within a month. I'm also not a fan of physical keyboards either. the screen doesn't have that pop the Vibrant has either. I did a speed test on the one in the store and I was getting anywhere from 5-6mbps and on my vibrant I get around 3-5mpbs average with a best of 5.8mbps. So the 14.4 isn't a selling point for me either. If I were to trade my phone I'd rather have the Mytouch 4G or wait and see what's coming later this year.
[Vibrant General] ravigodhwani:
my sister has a g2 and i have a vibrant, i like them both, but the processor in ours is awesome. g2 has aosp so that's awesome. maybe they're asking for more money because of the faster data speeds on the g2?
[Vibrant General] Bruce lee roy:
Both are same price in my area. Probably due to the fact people are so much more intelligent and tech savvy in my area :)

the G2 is clunker compared to the vibrant. that thing is heavy and awkward and fragile with a small dull screen. no thank you. you can keep it.
[Vibrant General] VeryCoolAlan:
Lol exactly
[Vibrant General] phrozenflame:
How can you go back from super amoled screens? :confused:
[Vibrant General] smoochiezz24:
I dunno, I think I'm gonna have to along with the G2. Having had a vibrant, I must say that the screen is beautiful and there was quite an adjustment going to the G2. But the G2 has so many other things working in its favor. It has a keyb oard, I didn't really value a physical keyboard until I had one and I can launch any app in two clicks now. It has a better processor. And its the only phone that I know of(excluding G1) that has a physical keyboard and an optical trackpad on the outside so that u can use it while the keyboard is closed. That for me won me over because it just doesn't look the same as others and HTC is notorious for basically putting out the same hardware over and over. Gosh, if u add on the dev work here, that just about topples over the vibrant alone id say.

Sent from my sweet G2 :)
[Vibrant General] duboi97:
Dude the mytouch slide has an optical pad....
[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
Thinking of getting one just for the dev community. My roomate has g2 and a very sick stable 2.3 on it.
[Vibrant General] bstromberg:
pretty ignorant post. my wife has the G2 and honestly I'm jealous. Far superior GPS, screen being smaller is negligible, phone feels solid (not like a happy meal toy like my vibe), optical trackpad, notification LED, way more development, stable CM7 running 2.3.3 with all the bells and whistles, stable OC at 1.8ghz, the list goes on

i could care less about a keyboard. really the only thing keeping me from getting one is the storage. I use my vibe as my only music device and i don't have the dough right now to buy a 16 or 32gb SD card. and the camera on the G2 is meh.

on paper the vibe would be the obvious choice, but real world use the G2 is way smoother and faster.

bottom line...vibe is a great phone, but the G2 ****s all over it. real talk
[Vibrant General] danow11:
I actually have both devices, people talk about the vibrant screen, but honestly I don't see much difference.

The vibrant developers are great and have worked wonders but I've had this G2 probably 10 hours and I'm on cm7 and its far more stable than my vibrant ever was on anything I flashed.

Ill keep both devices for a bit just to be sure but so far the g2 is "so money you don't even know it"
[Vibrant General] EricDET:
Its the total opposite where I live.... $200 will get you a vibrant... $275-300 for a G2.

And to be honest... The G2 is a much more powerful everyday phone. The fact is until we have a ROCK solid 2.3 rom with all the bugs worked out we won't even scratch the surface of what the G2 can do even on 2.2.1. I like my Vibrant for how slim and compactit is and it fits in my pocket. The screen is great. But I don't play games or anything so the graphics processor is kind of a moot point. If not for the G2's cumbersome dimensions I'd have one in place of my Vibrant.
[Vibrant General] Bruce lee roy:
The Future is now

I think the real problem with the vibrant is that it was so far ahead of its time. It was introduced with 2.1 and is just now hitting 2.2 when, In reality, this phone is best suited for 2.3. I'm really counting in this phone outliving anything non-galaxy based that out there. Now all that's left is to convince the devs to have patience and keep producing the goods. When 2.3 is common place, we will really be in the money like no other. ;)
[Vibrant General] ScooterG:
Yup. G2 has Tigerblood.
[Vibrant General] Joy2DaWurld:

[Vibrant General] crysto25:
g2 is fast. so what?, it depends on peoples taste on what they look for in a phone. personally i like the vibrant because its more of an entertainment. was thinkin about vibrant 4g but all that changed was a front facing cam, 2.2.1 and INCEPTION MOVIE!... WHOA!!! :eek: who cares.. but.. 3g vibrant has more space =] and for the g2.. if u like it go ahead
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
First of all, people have got to get over the heavier is better build quality idea. The vibrant may be light, but my unit it rock solid, no creaks whatsoever. If you have gotten to use the HD2, you might appreciate the lightness of the Vibrant compared to how heavy the HD2 is. Heck, the vibrant with a body glove on is still lighter than the HD2.

And what is a more practical material to use? Plastic, which is easily replaceable, strong, and light, or metal which is very strong, heavy, and dents when it is dropped?
[Vibrant General] gatesmarch123:
I love these threads. I just snack on popcorn and watch the bickering all day long. BTW they both have their strong points and weaknesses. It all depends on what's more important to you. It gets frustrating though...why does the facinate have a flash and not the vibrant? Its like each phone has one thing the other doesn't ...why the freaking hell can't they just make a phone with everything we want?

1. Ffc

2. Good Camera w/flash

3. 4g/Hspa

4. S amoled screen

5. Solid build quality

6. Vanilla Android

There you go manufacturers, make that phone and everyone will buy it....EVERYONE!!!
[Vibrant General] RobBull69:
Personally, I'm thinking of making the switch to the G2 or Nexus S if I find a good trade on Craigslist. So far, I've gotten a few G2's that people are willing to trade straight up, so there is some parity between the value of the devices. I just want a phone to hold me over until the next Google Nexus device comes out. I will never again buy a device that is non-vanilla Android. I initially got the Vibrant because I was confident that Wes and Team Douche would be able to get CM running on it. It's a nice phone and it's a shame that the drivers for the phone are closed source because it has so much potential. I'd love to find someone willing to part ways with a NS for a reasonable trade locally, but I highly double that I will.

after installing androind as primary OS?
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
Just flash the latest radio ;)
[HD2 General] johnerz:
Try this one Radio 2.15.50.14

don't use a 51 version
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
I may be wrong but I thought you had to have a TMOUS ROM (or stleast a ROM dazed from a TMOUS ROM) and a TMOUS radio to get the etrade memory. If this is so you will lose it when. you flash a NAND Andriod ROM. Like I said though I could be wrong.
[HD2 General] Tachi91:
the latest 2.15.50 radio enables the 576 memory... since the radio is at the base of the hd 2 a rom flash of android or windows won't erase it. now stock wm6.5 roms have radios built in so in those cases it will replace it

Yea, this isn't a ROM, it's a kind of "Manual Skin" that doesn't require any knowledge of ADB (or any of the SDK tools) and doesn't require ClockworkMod flashing etc. You can use these packs to set your screen up however you like. This should also work in most launchers BTW, not just ADW.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
I started playing with this today, unfortunately DTV wouldn't recognize the PSD objects as images. So I did a batch conversion from PSD to PNG using Adobe Fireworks and that worked for DTV to see them as icon images but the icons wouldn't line up (Sit) properly on the shelf of the wallpaper properly, even with setting the icons to Autostretch in ADW_EX settings.

I had to experiment with the cropping of the wallpaper to get the icons to sit nicely. However if I tried to resize the icons it wouldn't sit properly afterwards so I would be stuck with the original size of the object, leaving little room on the shelf to place other objects.

Also, DTV did not have the option for me to set the lightswitch object as the drawer launcher. So I had to create the lightswitch launcher under Settings > Add > Launcher Actions > Open/Close App Drawer. And from there Long Press the Icon > Edit > Click on Launcher Icon > Choose Lightswitch from Gallery (Or file Explorer). But that left the Lightswitch object on whatever page I created it on.

I was hoping I can set the lightswitch icon as the main dockbar button so it would show up on all the homescreens via ADW_EX settings but it only gave me the option to set the image as the background with the original icon still over it.

Thanks again Zeb, but as sweet as this theme looks, it seems its a very tedious task to achieve the proper "Vintage" look and feel with all the Haberdasheries on the GTAB.

I tried,

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Zebwen:
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to try this out, I'll try my best to answer a couple of points:

1) You don't need to use the PSD files at all unless you want to change the original files. If you simply download the Object Pack (just above the bottom of the original post), all of the objects are already in PNG format and scaled correctly. There is also a PNG Wallpaper pack there too! So no need whatsoever to convert them from PSD unless you want to change them a bit first.

2) I'm not 100% sure ont he wallpaper sizing for the G-Tab (do you guys use the Big-Bar or Small-Bar?). This was tested on a Vega with the Small-Bar.

3) For the lightswitch, don't use a DTV icon. Just create a regular ADW-EX icon that opens the app drawer, and give it the lightswitch image for it's icon, then move it into the correct position on the sidebar (you can change the sidebar settings in ADW-EX to only have one icon slot, which is what I did for the switch.

If you try those things, you should be good to go :) It really shouldn't take long to set up, but I realise it might not be perfect no the G-Tab. I can always change some things to help if you need though!

Zeb
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
Hiya!

The Objects.. (The Till, Globe, Books, Mail, Etcc..) within the Above Zip file are in PSD format only, The Wallpaper and the Vintage Stamps are in PNG format.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshRH:
I am sure by now you have caught some of my posts floating around the forum in a near panic with confusion. Here are the steps I have taken followed by the issue I am dealing with. I understand I may have taken these steps out of order and am very interested in getting some detailed help on how to fix the issue I am in.

Starting with a fresh stock Atrix I..

Step 1 - Ran Adeo for version 0.1 I downloaded all of the drivers correctly from the MobileTech video website however I honestly don't know what this even means.

Step 2 - Rooted using Super Once click.

Step 3 - I tried to install the Gingerbread theme but after much frustration and many failed attempts I found out I suffer from the missing ADBD file.. I read the thread and it said to download the file unzip it and add it to SBIN.. I have done this countless times and my phone is still unreadable but AROOT, Super once click and Adeo installer..

Rebooting removes the file as mentioned in that thread but I can never actually get anything to recognize my device while the file is in there.

I am set to USB connection NONE and using the Debugging setting in the ON position.

At this point I want to start all over.. Completely go back to stock and then try again, maybe not even that.. I am very turned off of this experience and am starting to get worried considering the investment in this phone I have. (Full Retail)

I understand many people on this forum are not only busy but do no suffer from this problem but I have also seen some incredible help given so as always anyone who is willing to help me just know it will be very appreciated. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djazin:
At a glance I would try looking into the adb offline issue [fixed] thread in this section. though thats from the glance over what you seem to behaving and use aroot, superoneclick is sai by some devs to make a mess of things.
