Yeah they suck stock..
Who here isn't going to root it and install a custom rom though.
The phone itself is pretty damn good.

yeah moto stuff is pretty locked down..
they cracked the atrix though

A Friend of mine here got one.
On Stock, it really sux, but the last update removed all the "Blur" crap.
The Kernel can be Unlocked also, and there is a few custom roms (But a good part doesn't recognise the Dock OR the fingerprint sensor).
If i was you, i would wait sometime. Nexus Prime and a few other phones are about to be launched. (And speaking frankly. The Motorola design trully sux, lol)

I agree with lord Baal here, but the atrix is great if your with ATT, you need a updated phone now, and it has a very low price at the moment if your ready for an upgrade.
The phone itself is very fast once modded. Look at my cm7 pics in my profile of the atrix in my profile. I have some stats ran by cf-bench that are amazing and pass a sgs2 if your running cm7 beta.
I believe the atrix is right next to the sgs2 in every category. Don't count this phone out. I would of waited for something better but my x10 was too slow for school things I had to do so I bought the atrix. I am glad I did.

Perhaps we like the phone? Also maybe we don't want to sign a new contract with verizon and don't want to shell out big bucks for a new phone at the poor of contract price.

I have yet to find another android phone with a form factor that I like as well as the Eris. It fits well in my hand, the buttons are placed nicely and it's a great size for me & my tiny hands. With it rooted & OC'd it runs how I want. I also don't have it on a V contract, I have it on PagePlus and only download & stream when on WiFi saving me ALOT of money.
So I have a great smartphone that does all of what I need, most of what I want, and it fits me perfectly in form and function.
And that is why I still own an Eris.
Didn't this Guy already post a thread like this elsewhere.

Because they are rediculously bad ass considering you can get them on craigslist for less than $100 in some cases.
It was also a VERY popular phone so there are a lot of goodies and rom's that have been developed.
And it runs Froyo very well. So the only things a new phone can do for an Eris user is really more proc and RAM. And I don't really 'need' those things right now.

I didn't repost this thread. A moderator must hasn't done this. Maybe they want you to really think about why you like your phone. I loved the Eris. I just have moved on to bigger and better things. My logic for asking the question was not to be a smart a$$, but to suggest that other Eris owners make the switch. Sorry if it offended anyone. You will not see any more posts from ME in this forum.

Roms

Hi all, I have a htc aria with att, and I was offered this phone to get tomorrow. I was wondering if there are a lot of roms on this phone. Because I was browsing through the atrix android development and I just saw a bunch of mods. Also if you can tell me if this phone is worth it?

No custom roms yet but soon.
Thanks for the quick reply, so do you think I should get this phone tomorrow?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
I personally do. My last phone was also the aria. Even though the aria had custom roms this phone stock blew it out of the water.
I also came from a attn1 liberated aria. The atrix blows it out of the water stock and now that the bootloader its unlocked its going to blow everything away. Personally the webtop hack has saved my ass many times at work with presentations. I gave my wife the aria, now she wants a atrix.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I had an Aria and gave it up quick for the Captivate. I like the Atrix better than the others hands down! The roms are coming soon we just now have an unlocked bootloader.
Thanks, I will more than likely get the atrix tomorrow! , so I will be entering your forums
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Atrix is the path! I'm sure u already know that unlocked bootloader is just the tiniest first step, maybe the devs need some time, but i'm really sure the results will worth all the waiting.

Welcome. Enjoy your stay.

Should i?

The arc(normal one) arrived cheap(589usd), i dont have the money but by december i will, should i upgrade to it? Or should i save my money and wait for a better upgrade?
My x10 is in top condition, no problems and i got a sgs1 as a backup phone brand new that i got in exchange of my old milestone
But the arc is so cool(or at least seems like it since i havent tested it)

Dont ;-)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Bad choice..
The arc is not worth it and has some build quality issues.
Keep your Money!
Soon we will have some new models (Several Dual Cores), and by the next year, expect some quads...

Damn, really? I thought they learned from the x10( thought the x10 doesnt have build quality issues)
Is this a known issue? Or.your own arc?

The body has been cracking for many users by the proximity sensor and se is trying to deny it.
Go to the arc forums and read the huge thread in general.
The x10 has build issues too, especially when it comes to the micro usb port. Many can't charge or flash radios or upgrade
That would be a dumb decision if you ask me specially for you who have a X10 & SG in good condition, Wait for a phone that beside looking cool actually worth the money & feel like an upgrade
i would keep my money and wait for a real upgrade next year, especially if you have 2 phones in great condition.
Yes, both phones are perfect, guess i got a (got to have the latest) fever going on
But with my x10 running 2.3 its not that outdated, and sgs still runs 2.1 but i dont even use it, i didnt planned to have it, i got it cause the store couldnt replace the milestone, its only a backup in case the x10 screws. At least is the amoled one

Lol it's funny the much better phone is your back up.
Change the file system, install a custom Rom and see how a truly good phone works

I should get that thing rooted, and tweaked, but since im focused on my x10 i havent given the other one the time, i just didnt want to risk the backup u know
Anyway i.mainly use the x10 cause i dont like to follow the mainstream, everyone here that has an android has a galaxy of some sorts, i think i might be the only xperia user lol

Already on 2.3.5 (Photon 4G)

Guyz i just bought this phone, and it is already updated to 2.3.5...im so depressed...is there any way or can u see anything in the near future that will unlock the 2.3.5 bootloader..! bought it online..dont know how to return it back..im stuck with stock rom...i want CM9... Is there any hope..?
No Worries Needed...
well,you can be sure that in closed future you'll be able to unlock your bootloader but till that promotion you can simply root your device,install rom manager,flash clockworkmod recovery.
Start rooting your device here:http://www.unlockroot.com/index.htm

Hey thanks man..u took some pressure off me..ok one more thing..is there a link or something where i could follow if some thing comes up for the bootloader, some thread already working on it ?

Of course there are some suitable & useful links on XDA but most unfortunately,this website is banned in my country and takes me a long time to provide you these links,I'm so sorry about that.

That sux man, I got my mopho off cowboom last week and it came with 2.3.4. If its ang consolation I tried cm9 but it wasnt polished to my liking as of yet (no chrome or opera browser and multitouch games sucked)
Pretty much only thing an unlocked bootloader will allow you is custom kernels and I personally love the stock 2.3.5 kernel

still i would like it that my phone is capable of doing that stuff although if i dont use it...just makes me happy
you might want to look into using PROMS to get your modding fix until we find a way around the fuse issue. i believe proms are themed roms that run over stock.

A farewell.

Hi all.
My wife's phone recently played out for the third time within a year (D2). When they replaced it this time they sent her a completely different phone.
Well she liked my DX2 better so I got the other (sam strat) phone. I had planned on moving to another phone in the not so distant future but looks like I got moved sooner then I thought. (Still gonna get a different phone in the near future)
The DX2 community on here is incredible, and I am sure that goes without saying and everyone of you guys and gals know that! I will miss my phone and the community but it's time to move on I suppose. I wish you all the best, I am sure I will stop in from time to time to check up on things.
DK, your an awesome Dev. and I think more so then that you seem to be a super guy from what one can get to know someone else through communicating over the internet / forums. Thanks man for all your time and effort!
GL all.
Don't be a stranger and be sure to stop in from time to time. When I got my Gnex, the thought crossed my mind that I may not frequent the DX2 community as much. But I just can't let it go. Other areas here on XDA just don't offer what is abundant here. By far the best on the web, hands down.
Best of luck in your future endeavors...neighbor!

I'm rockin AT&T's Atrix 2 on the 4.0.4 ICS leak and I still come in the X2 forums to try and help when I can. Had my fun on the X2 from Eclipse to CM7 and CM9 so I know whats what with the device as well. So thats a +1 for me as well. Stop by, give people a hand once in awhile when you see a question you know the answer too. Good luck. Cheers!

Guess I will see you over on rootzwiki then? They have a forum for the Stratosphere. Rooting+flashing isn't so bad once you learn how to use odin. It's definitly a lot easier rooting the x2, but oh well. Still stuck with 2 or 3 roms too which are all tweaked versions of stock because the radio interface layer is locked by samsung. They say we're supposed to get ICS(only reps, no official updates), but won't give out any dates or anything. Oh well.
I reccommend tweaked 2.2. Pretty awesome!

Thx.
