I'm on the 200mb AT&T data plan and was wondering if there was an app that would alert me and turn off my data if I got near or reached the limit.

3G Watchdog is a free app that you can use in conjunction with APNDroid to turn off data when you get close to your limit.

there is a link somewhere in that thread for a site that sells replacement speakers.

Or just take it to sprint, since the phone is still under the year warranty.

i replaced mine 3 times very easy, but the original speaker has a foam ring around it the new ones didnt so when i replaced the terminals wouldnt make contact so i made my own spacer to go around the speaker out of a piece off poster board my daughter had laying around...lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:

no ribbons in the way, the hardest part is opening the case after taking the screws out, if you follow the steps you be good, the speakers sound the same i cant tell the difference
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
Is that cause you gotta use a pry tool? Lmao@ someone if they used a flat head screwdriver. Do ya need to put something to replace the foam?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Maybe, if the techs are too lazy to replace the speaker they will just give you a replacement.

Yes it is. NEVER EVER take a rooted phone into a sprint store. EVERY SINGLE guide on rooting told you this before you rooted your phone. Rooting voids the warranty.

Insurance is only needed for lost/stolen/physical damage. You speaker blew, which is a hardware defect, which is covered under the 1 year warranty.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
The one @ www.evospeaker.com says they have the foam with them now. I need to replace mine also. I don't think it was Pandora or PowerAmp tho. I think I did mine playing around with the DSP manager that was on the ROM I installed after I rooted :eek:

Edit: Well, just tried to purchase one and now it says they are out of stock. Found one here for $15 though. http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-evo-4g-loud-speaker-replacement.html
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Completely possible. The tiny speaker in the phone can barely work as it is. When you try to amp it or mess with bass/treble settings that the speaker can't put out, you will blow it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josh030181:
Yea the ones I ordered didn't have the foam on them, I had the pry tool but I thought I was gonna break them lil clips, it was a lil hard getting the tool in at first, might have just been me
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
Perhaps my question about bringing it in rooted was a bit silly but I would probably have to unroot AND take it there without the SD card. Is this right? I am somewhat confident I can do this since there are no ribbons involved(reminds me of ripping my ps2 ribbon).

No matter how much I blew on it it sprAyed can air,those metal shavings don't come off that magnet ... so now I just sandwich bag it and put that in a crown royal bag in my hard hat....

Pockets and bottom of purses where sediments can collect are bad , and for some reason u will see the magnet pulling **** threw the holes in the back of the phone

It's hard to believe u can blow this speaker cuz the phone(stock) doesn't go up loud enough too...

There is a 1 Year Waranty on the phone from the date it was bought, The one year will cover any "Normal wear and tear" only if it is sent to the manafacture that made the phone.

The service and repair centers will fix it for you in store but they will charge 35.00 fee if there is not "sprint" Insurance on the device.

The options they give you is to send it in the the manafacture and wait for the return of the device that could take 2-3 weeks or have the store fix it right on the spot "usualy 1 hour" for a fee of 35.00

The insurance program has changed 3 time now since the first of the year.

I like a lot of things I'm hearing about the Atrix, i'm just concerned about the low data speeds, and wonder if the iphone 4 might just have it beaten (for now).

Seems like many of you out here have good experience on both. You guys can help me (a lot) by rating which phone is better in my areas of biggest importance. And i know i am going to get iphone haters but I'm not sure i understand specifically WHY. The phone really is a great device, so please be fair to it here, but do feel free to also tell me why you think i won't like it.

1. GPS

2. Internet Browsing speed/ease

3. Stability/Speed

4. Call Quality/Least dropped calls

5. Speaker Quality/Volume

Feel free to touch on any deciding factors you might feel i did not have listed...and thanks :)

[Atrix 4G General] FLAC Vest:
1. GPS

Pretty damn good; I used it while walking down the street to the coffee shop and got a fast lock and accurate reads.

2. Internet Browsing speed/ease

Very, very fast, although not that much faster than current generation top tier phones.

3. Stability/Speed

Amazing; the phone in its entirity feels fast and snappy. It never sslows down, even when a lot of applications are running.

4. Call Quality/Least dropped calls

I'm part of the group that never gets dropped calls or a bad signal wherever I am. Nothing but positive experiences with me.

5. Speaker Quality/Volume

Very good. Calls canned through clear. However, there is a widespread issue with the notice cancelling feature. If you have it set too high, people can't hear you.

I ended up taking mine back though. The fact that on the same wifi network, it only beat my Nexus 1 aand Captivate by asecond or so; and the quality of the screen isn't that great, even though it has a higher pixel density.
[Atrix 4G General] G1-8701:
Honestly i had this same debate before i bought my atrix, after having my jailbroken iTouch(which isn't much of a difference from an iphone) and my htc aria, i've noticed how locked down the iphone is, and i love customizing my phones/devices, and android seemed like it had so much more to offer, i can't lie, i like the design of the iphone 4 and almost bought it, but the atrix is waaay more powerful and has a very bright future ahead of it rather than the iphone 4 which is about to be sorta outdated in a few months when the iphone 5 comes out(which really isn't gonna have much of a difference from the iphone 4.

This is my first motorola phone with motoblur, and a lot of people don't like motoblur but actually it's not bad at all, i blame the bad rep on the motorola backflip

ok now to answer your questions:

Motorola Atrix

1: the GPS works great, no complaints

2: the internet is blazing fast and very smooth

3: 1ghz dual core processor, pretty self explanitory lol, but i haven't experienced any lag at all

4: I haven't had any dropped calls, and the speaker is very clear and loud

5: speaker is clear and loud enough to hear from another room

and no i'm not giving a biased opinion, i like both phones, but the Atrix seems more stable and dependable which is important when on the go
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:
I will play devil's advocate for you. My buddy's Iphone 4 is "faster" in a speedtest.net race. I have NEVER seen him upload anything through his iphone. So saying that the iphone is faster is almost a mute point, but it does upload faster. Our download speeds are the same, his Iphone, my captivate, and sadly my Atrix all hit the same download speeds.

The ONE thing that makes me android green with envy, his stupid "unreal" games. I mean its freaking gorgeous to look at, I dont even know the name of the game but its badass. I know that we are going to get some sweet game via nvidia tegra zone, but so far they all look cartoony to me. I am sure we will eventually overtake the iphone in terms of games.

Ok so back to why my phone is better... I can use my phone as a nintendo, supernintendo, playstation 1, or nintendo 64 AND connect it to the big screen AND play the games from my wii remote...

And we have webtop so neiner neiner.

atrix screen

I strongly disagree with the previous post. The Atrix screen is GREAT. Motorola did not include any hi res movies either becasue they were rushing it out the door or just not fully developed the apps. But I have seen hi res videos on the Atrix and the screen is excellent. The Atrix beats the IPhone hands done in every category. Droid phones can be optimized and customized and the result is a phone that does exactly what you want, better than any other phone out there. Trust me, get the Atrix...spend time here looking at the apps and homescreens and spend time on it....it's worth it!

WINNERS:

1. Atrix - by a lot

2. iPhone 4, by a small margin

3. Speed goes to Atrix, stability goes to Atrix if you are familiar with Android

4. Atrix, hands down. very loud speaker, very clear voice. Far fewer dropped calls.

5. ATRIX - loudest speaker I've ever had.
[Atrix 4G General] bearsfan172:
I just came from the iPhone 4 to the atrix, so I figure I can speak better then most.

I really like both of these phones, and figure that either way you go will be a win for you. So that's the good news.

Some quick comparison thoughts:

The screens on the same are very very comparable. They both have a notably high pixel density, and look super sharp and clear. The colors on the iPhone are perhaps a tiny bit better, but maybe that's just a trick of the mind. Regardless, they are very comparable.

Both phones are fast, very fast. Generally, I would say that the Atrix is a bit more responsive then the iPhone. But this is not true when it comes to changing orientation. I've noticed that the Atrix can stutter for a second, where the iPhone was instant. Could be my launcher.

GPS is excellent on both. But the Atrix comes with Google Navigation built in, which basically gives you a full blown GPS on your phone. iPhone requires an expensive app, or more of a maps view then a nav view.

Stability wise, I'm torn. The Atrix does... weird things sometimes. I can't exactly explain it. I had to do a battery pull to get it to work yesterday... brought me back a few years to my blackberry days. Not that it's a terrible thing, but it is a little different. I don't think I was forced to reboot the iPhone once due to issues. It is very very stable.

Build quality goes to the iPhone 4 hands down. The Atrix has little annoying things like the fact that the back on it creaks on some phones (mine is one). Not a big deal by any stretch. But I do miss the awesome build quality of my iPhone 4. Again, Atrix is awesome, but just can't compare to the best in class iPhone.

I love the notification LED on the Atrix. That was probably the thing I missed most on my iPhone.

Call quality and clarity is better on the Atrix. The earpiece is crystal clear, which I can't say for the iPhone. My friends say I sound better on the Atrix too.

To me what it comes down for overall is the software though. I am by no means an expert developer or crazy programmer, but I am very good with most technology. I love controlling my experience, and being able to mess with it. The iPhone is... for lack of a better word, very boring. It is kind of all the same stuff, and once you have it for a week, nothing ever really changes on it. You have the same home screen and everything else. It is what it is.

The possibilities on Atrix are endless. Even without an unlocked bootloader, there is a ridiculous amount of stuff you can do with this phone. Depending on your mood on a given week, you can completely customize things to fit your demands. What widgets and setup you use one day you can completely change the next. I like that freedom a lot.

And call me stupid... but I love my live wallpapers. They are so cool to me.

Overall, the move to Atrix was an awesome decision for me.
[Atrix 4G General] joelszs:
I just switched from an iPhone 4 yesterday to the Atrix and the bottom line is that I am incredibly happy with the switch.

A lot of people covered the basics: The GPS is great and built in Nav is nice. Call quality is very crisp, the phone is fast and web browsing is just as smooth as the iPhone. I have had no difficulty adjusting and actually, a lot of things, such as notifications, are designed much more logically.

My reason for a switch was that I was very bored with iOS, going through 3 generations of the phone. The OS is sort of stagnant.

There are a few hiccups on the Atrix - I don't love the texting app and the way it handles embedded images. I also think that the battery indicator is a little strange - still figuring it out.

Aside from, the customization options (even without bootloader access) are incredibly diverse. I love the screen (don't understand all the hate, honestly) and I similarly have had no problems with motoblur yet. Some of the moto widgets are bad, but I just delete them.

One more key factor - I LOVE BEING ITUNES FREE. It is SO nice to just drag and drop files to my phone and have them show up appropriately. It's a world of difference.

If you have any specific questions for a recent iPhone 4 switcher, feel free to PM me.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G General] illmatic416:
As an owner of both phones, I can say both phones are great. As much as I hate Apple as a company, it has saddened me the past year to say build quality wise, nothing really compares to the iPhone4...it's like a nice expensive watch, glass on both sides and metal on the sides. The Atrix's plasticy build with small creaks here and there(all phones with some plastic removable battery cover will always creak). Both phones are pretty snappy but iOS has always been more smooth and fluid when it comes to UI transitions. My i4 is jailbroken and tweaked to hell, but I don't theme it with Winterboard as I see some lag with it. Apple must use a better digitizer and have some better touch algorithm implemented, because no other touch device is on par with them. The Atrix screen comes close, but you still can feel the difference on touch response. You can also tell the IPS screen on the iPhone4 is still sharper and produces colors more accurately, but then again, it is an IPS screen. While I've always loved how the Android browser loads the pages quickly with no transparancy checkerboard, browsing on the iPhone4 is just smoother, but that could be a by-product of the better screen. Sometimes people say I sound muffled on the Atrix, but it may depend on how I hold the phone.

I wanted to see the hype about Tegra2 so I download Samurai2 for Tegra2. It looks stunning on the Atrix, however, it looks just as good on the iPhone4 too. So that was kind of a letdown to see that Tegra2 was matched by Apple's 9month old SOC. I also have a NexusOne(currently running on Modaco's GB) and love how I can install ROMs and Nandroid to backup my device to try other other ROMs, but with this bootloader lockdown and the possibility that there is a Nvidia efuse in Tegra2, it makes buying Moto almost as bad as buying Apple. While xda is a great community with some very very intelligent people, the jailbreak scene on iOS has worked wonders because they only focus on one OS version for basically one device(Pod/Pad/Phone/TV).

Basically, you shouldn't even consider the iPhone4, when the 5 is coming. Spec wise, if it's using the dual core A5 chip that they just announced on the iPad2, then it will probably be one of the fastest and most powerful phones available. The only thing is, you have to deal with the Apple tax of iTunes and a locked down system until it's jailbroken. The Atrix is a great phone and if you had to buy a phone tomorrow, it should be the one to get...but July isn't that far away.
[Atrix 4G General] gigaorg:
If you can wait....

I have been thinking about both. It might make sense to wait a month until iPhone 5 details come out. It is supposed to have a HW upgrade and there are some pretty interesting rummours out there (NFC, etc).
[Atrix 4G General] ranova:
Do not buy the iPhone 4 right now as 5 is coming out in a few months...

That being said, the Atrix has VERY fast web browsing. From what I remember of using the iPhone 4 for a month, whenever you try to scroll quickly or zoom out quickly, you get a slight gray loading area. This also happened on the Captivate and n1, but on the Atrix, that never happens on heavy content sites like Engadget.

If you really dont care about the differences between iOs and Android, and LOVE gaming and the best battery life of any smartphone, get the iPhone. But if you want "freedom" and hands down the best integrated google service, get the Atrix.
