Lost faith. - Motorola Droid RAZR

After 6 months with this device I have lost faith. The lack of software fixes to issues that are important to me have caused me to become frustrated and abandon the device. Too bad. I thought it had potential. Goodbye RAZR forum. Thanks to those that assisted me.

So... you're selling it? How much?

Since the device is not completely oké I offer 50 Euro for it.

If you don't mind me asking, I would just like to ask what sort of problems with the software were you having?
I'm in the market for a new phone and the Razr Maxx is on my list. So I'm still doing my research before pulling the trigger for a Maxx.

I, too, am curious about what software issues you are having. The only software issue I have come across so far is compatibility with Google Voice, but that is solely a Verizon thing and applies to all VZW Android devices, and there is a relatively easy workaround.
I have been running Eclipse 1.3 since purchasing my Razr, however, and the Eclipse ROMs are known for being very stable and better than stock. This may be why I haven't come across any software issues.
Or, on the flip-side of that last comment, all of the custom ICS ROMs have known bugs. Are you running a custom ROM, or stock Moto?

I too am on the fence about buying a razr. I found one locally for 250 box and all. I won't lie I'm a little worried that I might not like it because lack of support. And after seeing this post I leaning towards not getting it. What didn't you like about it?

I second that.

he probably means that there still isn't ics...which isn't really a big deal because of the easily installable leaks but...whatever..his loss

Fantastic phone. 0 issues. Battery life is silly great. Couldn't be happier...would love a 0 shutter camera but its close enough...that's nit picking

I have a regular RAZR. To be frank this is my tipping point:
1. Bluetooth streaming sucks. This is a big deal to me. I have "stutters" when streaming music to my car stereo. It wasn't present with the Atrix I had before. I updated my deck's bluetooth firmware. No improvement. This likely a software radio fix required.
2. Bluetooth sound quality is tinny. Using my phone with a bluetooth device makes sound quality tinny. This got worse lately.
3. Lackluster battery life. This is a hardware limitation.
4. Poor wifi performance. This again is likely hardware.
5. ICS would be nice. But it isn't why i want to rid of it. It took up to 2 weeks ago to get an OTA to 2.36. That fix in my opinion improved nothing.
The Maxx addresses the battery concern i had. But it doesnt address my other concerns.
I honestly find this phone to be a step backwards from the Atrix it replaced. Too bad. This is a device that looks amazing. It just is too quirky for me.

Maybe it's just that device. My maxx is easily the best phone I've ever used. I've had none of the issues you've described. I can deal with the lack of ics for now because I have it on my tablet and gb is running just fine so far for me.

Agreed. I can honestly say this is the best phone I've owned or seen. (Maxx, I wouldn't touch an OE Razr for any money)

Just chipping in my two cents here, if anyone wants to know.
I picked up my Razr two days ago from Verizon. I had a local carrier that did NOT work at all when I moved, and I needed a new phone. I was pretty attached to my xperia play, but not enough to buy another, plus, I wanted a 4G phone. I kinda searched around the forums at some of the others, and eliminated all but the Rezound, the Thunderbolt, and the Razr. A friend of mine had the Thunderbolt, and had good things to say about everything but the battery life, and a friend of his was absolutely in love with the Rezound. The Verizon rep, however, was absolutely in love with her razr, and gave me 100 dollars off on it, so, being cheap, I took it, opened the box, went to XDA, and realized... there are no ROMs for the CDMA Razr. Couple of seconds of freaking out, and I stumbled on droidrazr's website, and got it running with an AOKP/Axi0m kang, and then with Gummy. The device is wicked responsive, the signal quality with Verizon is second to none, and pretty much everything is perfect with the world (though I've found the device is easier to hold upside down in certain situations) I don't know of the google voice issue, unless you're talking about the voicemail integration, in which case its no issue at all, as voicemails come straight to your GV inbox. My last Moto was a Backflip, and I swore never again to Motorola.... now I'm glad I went back on it... though battery life could use a little oomph... good thing I have an external pack.

GV is pretty easy to fix. I use it as my voicemail. Can call it by pressing 1 or open the app and listen to my VM. Sorry off topic but an easy fix

I have a JVC r80bt and bluetooth streaming never has had a hiccup. Connecting and pairing happen quickly from car start- up. Perhaps it is your deck's bluetooth adapter, or bluetooth version.
On the eq, again mine is pretty spot on. I
noticed bass was a bit saturated, but eq that out.
Wifi performance never noticed issues, but ics could alter performance if they tweak hardware drivers.

I love this phone. I concur with these his/her people. Go buy an iphone where you dont control your software. Apple does.

Can't blame you. RAZR is the worst high-end Android phone I have ever used - and I've used a lot more than I've owned.
Given how badly Moto screwed everyone with this device - first by releasing the MAXX so quickly after the original, then by refusing to unlock the bootloaders, then by releasing a completely separate 'developer edition', and finally with the delayed release of the ICS update, I am honestly surprised there are so many Motorola apologists. Bizarre.
Even more bizarre is how much I love the Electrify I downgraded to when I couldn't stand the RAZR's terrible battery life and nasty, yellowed screen any longer. Ho-hum. At least the Chinese 4.0.4 release is pretty good.

1.) No issue with mine. I'm using poweramp. I used all of last week. I just ordered a new stereo for my car so I can stream.
2.) Haven't tried it
3.) I really don't get many calls on my phone, but use it for everything else. Battery last all day majority of the time. Once in a while I'll only make it 8-10 hours before I have to charge it.
4.) I get great WiFi (Pic was taken before I went to ICS)

Oh, guys, re: bluetooth streaming, it doesn't suck. Quite the contrary. Gave it a good testing over the weekend. RAZR is one of the first phones to support apt-X, aka lossless bluetooth streaming up to ~320k. Recommend trying it with a BT4.0 headset if you've not already. Bests the One X quality-wise when using apt-X, too.

Any former Bionic owners here?

Hey everybody, I currently have a Bionic. It's actually running pretty good now after installing leaks. The main problem I have left is stutters every minute or two when streaming Slacker/Pandora to my car's headunit. Because of this I got Big Red to give me an early upgrade with limits on the phones I can choose. Right now the best phone I can choose is the Rezound. Anyone here have the Bionic prior to the Rezound? If so, what do you like better or worse about it? I have until Mon to make up my mind. Any bluetooth streaming problems? Any comments or opinions are welcome.
Thanks in advance
BionicBlues
If it helps, I had the RAZR for 3 days before i got the Rezound,
The Screen is heads and shoulders above both the RAZRs and the Bionic's, Pentile can't even compare to this.
I haven't had any stutters on Bluetooth or on Pandora.
Battery life isn't fantastic but its good enough, I can get through the day with no charging and moderate 4g usage.
I have the Bionic and just bought the Rezound today... Very happy with my decision, here are some key differences...
1) Rezound Camera is Superior
2) Data & Voice at the SAME time! This is a huge bonus HTC has given us and nobody talks about it - smh
3) Screen is 2nd to none... I've owned A LOT of phones over the past 18 months including iPhone 4s, Nexus S, & Bionic. All claim to have great screens but I would put the Rezound on top followed by iPhone 4s & Nexus S.
4) HTC Sense is the best user interface by far for Android at this time...
5) umm... Dre Beats headphones and audio enhancements of course!
6) Rezound is just an all-around sexier phone ;-)
Hope this helps!

I was having a difficult time trying to decide between the Rezound and the Nexus, but the deal breaker on the Nexus for me is the no additional storage. That may not be a big deal for some people, but not having as an option sealed the deal on the Rezound for me.

There is a hacked version of Zumocast floating around in the XDA Forums to work with any device. I have Zumocast working on my Eeepad Transformer and my Rezound. Also I came from the Bionic and this phone is much better all around. I agree with everything Allareconnected said in his post.
Here is the link to the Zumocast from my dropbox.

Thanks nrage. That was my final piece. I remember that patched version now. I put that on my xoom. Come Monday when CS calls me back, I'll be getting my Rezound. I really haven't heard anything bad only positives. Too bad for the Bionic, this phone COULD be spectacular.

I also had the Bionic, but returned it that same week. The one thing that killed it was a grounding feedback noise whenever you connected a headphone. But over all, the Bionic is way out of its league compare to the trifecta.
The leaks cleared up my data issues and I never had the headphone noise. I really do like the screen too, I mean you can see it fine in direct sun. It's just the sub par camera and the bluetooth issues that are driving me crazy. The Rezound's display is beautiful and camera much better. The lack of root is kind of unsettling tho. I'm also worried that the majority of devs are going to flock to the GNex.

I'm concerned about dev support too..The Bionic made me a daily android phone blog reader since February, I was ready to buy one until I heard the rumors about the Vigor and now it's here (as the Rezound). Played with it at the store and came away generally impressed. But I imagine I'd want to tinker with it and trick it out.

Anyone else thinking of ditching there s3?

Ive had my s3 for 2 weeks now and I look at my s2 and think what a waste.
Don't get me wrong the phone is amazing and is top spec at the moment but im now having doubts that it is a massive difference than my s2.
Now I don't need you to reply with all what its got cos I know all about it.. But I think that there just isn't enough change in the software to make it exciting?
Ie the video that you can have open while your texting? Have you used it? Yes the full screen is ok for watching a movie on the train ect but do you really need to multi task that badly?
Before you start to get all defensive I love Samsung Ive had all 3 now but I really think I can live without the small plus points of the s3?! Notification light is ace and the battery life but other than that? Can't say im to fussed.
Because we are lucky enough to be able to change the look of the phone being android it looks the same as the s2 and no doubt I can make the s2 look like the s3. When I get a new phone I want it to stand out from the older models and be new and have visual differences.
So im thinking of selling up and going back to my s2 until something comes out that will make me happy.
What do you think?

Do what makes you happy man. I was considering getting an s3 but right now I'm having fun giving my s2 the s3's features. I have s voice working flawlessly. Will I eventually get an s3? Maybe. But right now I'm not pressed.

Dude, don't change phone within 3years because you will never find any big difference. All the phones in this world only have small incremental upgrade every 5-6 months. People change phone every year simply because they are spoiled enough to spend recklessly or they are just too rich and boring or they just want to prove they are tech geek.

Spare a thought for the iPhone users. They've had the same software UI since the first release.
I actually half agree with you... In my opinion I prefer the size of the S2 compared to the S3 (just a matter of getting used to i guess). In terms of normal daily usage, there isnt too much of a difference in terms of speed (however the S2 obviously has had a lot more time for development etc) and this will probably change in the coming months as developers work their magic for the S3. The battery and LED light are great additions as mentioned though so far it hasn't seemed to be major upgrade (not that I really expected it to be). While im not going to ditch my S3 (love having the latest and greatest) I do understand those that have 'upgraded' from a S2 and would prefer that few hundred dollars instead.
Also the audio quality was rather mediocre on the S2 unlike the S3 - another reason ill be keeping the S3.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
It depends. I've come from an S2 and I do like the touchwiz UI. One of the reasons I haven't switched over to AOKP is because it's the same look along all platforms and then it just feels like I'm still using the S2. Do what you feel like but i suggest you hold on to the S3 simply because it's the newer one.

Although the GS3's by far the best smartphone i've ever used, yes, i'm thinking about ditching it and getting the Note back - mainly because of the poor standby battery it gets with my network.
And yes, i've tried all roms and modems, kernels, hacks and rests - and 2 different GS3's - but it just does NOT play well with my network. Screen time remains good when used at a stretch.
it's vital i stay connected to my work email at all times on data. Too many fast dormancy related wakelocks + moderate use = Dead battery at the end of the workday - compared to around 40 to 50% battery left with identical usage on the same SIM with the Note.
Going to wait another month or so for possible modems with better compatibility but it doesn't look good and i hate reverting to my painful-to-use 4S to get me through the day.
PS: just reiterate, i am not making a generalization about the GS3's better, just relating what i experience with my network.
Yeah. it's awfully buggy, and I can't do things I took for granted anymore... mainly the phone is so poor at meaningful multitasking that music whist browsing causes horrendously regular cut outs. I think s2 is a better phone - I'd go back if it wasn't for being embarrassed at accepting that I chose a duff new phone (plus my missus has the s2)

Im begining to think getting my S3 was abit of an impulse buy,id only just got a HTC sensation XE which imo is a very good phone,and tbh im thinking that i didnt need a S3
some of the things on this samsung drive me crazy,the screen tint,no mass storage mode,trying to drag photos or videos off the phone is a mare because of the lack of thumbnails,i really hate that !
There doesnt seem much i can do on the S3 that i couldnt do on the XE,the only added feature of the s3 ive really made use of is the taking photo shots while recording video,im going to keep the S3 but getting abit of buyers remorse now lol
Upgrading every fow months or even once a year is a mugs game, only the phone manufacturer wins, coming from the Desire HD its well worth upgrading but if I had the S2 I dont know, its far from obsolete, dont think id be disappointed though
Well im glad im not the only one. Oh and the zero shutter lag is great but I can live without it

Verizon Rezound to Galaxy S 3

Verizon is allowing me to change my phone due to the unstable platform of ICS. Would you suggest this? Would you suggest going to a Galaxy S 3?

Yes, I would recommend it... but your reasoning is flawed, ICS is not an "unstable platform" at all, in fact your shiny, new SGS3 will have ICS on it and work just fine as well. ICS for the Rezound is perfectly stable and I use it every day on two different Rezounds.

I'm having issues switching from WIFI to 3g-4g It's a known ICS issue. I'm running stock and have never modded. I'm sure there is a version running out there that this has been fixed but HTC has not pushed it out yet. I'm sure you are aware of all of this anyways. Should I stick around and learn to mod?

My work Rezound is bone-stock OTA 3.14.605.12, and every radio is enabled all day, it switches between WiFi (multiple networks), 4G, and 3G all the time (several times a day) and it has never had a problem once. In fact, that phone hasn't even been rebooted or powered off in at least a month and it just works perfect. My personal Rezound is running the Global Mode RUU, no problems with that one either...
BTW, if it is a ICS thing (which it isn't), your SGS3 will have the same problem, it is running ICS as well on Verizon! And knowing VZW, you will likely be waiting months to get JB on that device as well.
I am not trying to talk you out of it, sounds like a good deal to me, the Galaxy S3 is an awesome device... but your reasoning, or the reasoning that was explained to you, is flawed.

This has been my experience as well, though I'm not on the Global RUU, I'm on the previous OTA (though I did run the RUU to address some battery drain problems I had). This phone is absolutely aces for me. I switch between 4G, 3G and wifi several times a day, although I will say that I do restart my phone every two days after I charge it completely.
I played with a friend's GS3 last weekend, and I can honestly say I hated the UI. TouchWiz just sucks in my opinion. The device itself was awesome though, and I'm sure I'd love to have one, though I'd either root it and install a JB rom or get a different launcher.

Learn how to root/s-off and install a custom rom unless you want to learn how to make your own.

b- they are getting a lot of refurb gs3 back which they are shipping off to rezound customers.

A question to all those getting to replace the Rezound, with the S3, is Verizon looking to swerve you off true unlimited data in doing so? Sounds to good for Verizon to not have an ulterior motive...

I think It's crazy how everyone is trying so hard to get an S3 when the S4 is scheduled to release first quarter of next year. Only question is, will Verizon get it?

I'm still happy with my Rezound being unlocked and having the ability to S-Off. I've been rooted/unlocked for a while and theo nly problem I have with my Rezound on near stock ROMs is the battery percentage problem dropping form 20% to 14% with the notification. That's a HTC Rezound problem which has been fixed by developers. Other than that my Rezound works perfectly.

Lol I'm right there with you. I bought my first Rezound the day after launch and never had any problems with it. I called Verizon a couple of times early on to see about getting a new battery because mine didn't hold a charge and instead of sending me a new battery they sent me a brand new Rezound with new battery so what the hell, I shipped my original back to them. Have had zero problems with the replacement either.

How long have you had your Rezound? I assume you're still paying for insurance and stuff, if its past the first month?
Guy that are getting the S3 as a replacement be careful I had one of my Rezounds replaced and they sent me a 32gb S3 it was labeled 32gb and everything but when I turned it on it was only 16gb so they sent me another and that one had the same problem even the supervisor I spoke to had that problem with the incorrect memory on his so they ended up just sending me a new in box one. So those getting them check the memory to see if it's correct.

Returning for Note 2?

Is anyone else thinking about returning their DNA and getting the Note 2 instead? I love the form factor of the DNA but the battery life and no MicroSD slot are killing me..
Why did you get it in the first place? Just curious..

I'm battling with the idea. I have 7 days left in my return period....but besides the phone, I'd also have to return 2 Wireless Chargers and quite frankly-I love the convenience of having the Wireless Charging Ability. I have one charger on my nightstand and one on my desk at work. I also played around the the camera a bit more and actually fell in love with the photo quality, beats my SGS3 handsdown and from what I understand the Note2 has the same camera as the SGS3. It also seems that I have a stronger signal with the DNA, and calls are much clearer.....may just bite the bullet and keep the DNA, wait for the Note 2 to be out for a few weeks and simply add it as an extra line and just swap the SIM out, and pawn the DNA off to a family member. One definite plus for the DNA-will work in Europe when I visit my family. I've not yet seen anything that states that the Note2 will work abroad without tinkering or having to Unlock it.
I definitely wouldn't.. in my opinion the DNA is superior in every regard. I've never liked Samsung's cheap build quality, nor could I live without Sense. The lack of an SD card is a bit of a bummer, but I realized I hardly ever store anything on my phone anyway, aside from the pictures from the camera and the occasional song or two. As far as battery life, mine has been stellar. Half an hour of web browsing uses maybe around 5% battery for me on 4G LTE, whereas on my Rezound half an hour of web browsing would use at least 15-20%, not to mention it'd turn into a portable handwarmer.. I'm extremely pleased with my battery life on my DNA thus far though.
Ultimately it's your decision, but my opinion is to not do it.

I've had the thought of returning this for the note 2 mainly because of touchwiz features. I can't say anything bad about the phone except for it lacking features. The phone is great and has a great build also I think it fits better in the hand than the note 2. As far as the note 2 it's S pen is convenient and the pop up browser without leaving the app is great, etc. One thing that bugs me about this phone and Sense is when I take a screenshot I can't share it from the notification pulldown via text. Is it just me?

It was the phone I was waiting for, as all the rumors made it seem fantastic. The only real complaints I have is that I need to be careful what I do on my phone if I want it to last all day, I can't surf the web for hours and watch YouTube if I won't be able to charge it before the night. I bought a 64GB MicroSD card to use on my Thunderbolt, so now that card is just sitting collecting dust, and with a display like this it would be useful to have several HD videos on it. The USB port cover is annoying, I'm thinking about just ripping it out. Lastly the camera isn't as good as I thought, and most people tend to favor the quality of the Note 2 instead.

Wireless charging is neat, but personally I would prefer to just stick with direct charging. The phone gets very warm when charging wirelessly, which will probably lead to shortened battery life. With the small battery, it will also need to be charged more frequently, and since it's non-removable who knows what the battery life will be like after hundreds of charging cycles a year from now.

Loving it, but ...
I really love the phone. The Note 2 is way too big for my taste, so that's a non-starter. The battery life is surprisingly great for me. I'd call myself a moderate user and I'm getting through a day with no problem. I have also been surprised that storage hasn't become an issue yet. I'm coming from an original HTC Incredible (running CM9) and I was constantly getting low memory warnings (with 8GB internal and a 16GB sd card). I don't store or watch movies on my phone, but I do store a bunch of mp3s from Google Music offline for listening while I'm skiing or running. The feel in hand is great for me, though I wouldn't mind if it was just a bit heavier.
I am still on the fence though. My main concern is that an equally awesome phone will come out in the next few months (perhaps at CES) with a bigger/removable battery and an sd card slot. I'm also oddly concerned that HTC is not promoting the DNA on their site, when everyone was calling it their new flagship device, and there are hardly any accessories available for it. HTC's home page has been featuring the Windows Phone 8x for a week (I'm guessing Microsoft is subsidizing that). Bestskinsever doesn't have it in their system and Zagg only recently has it listed, but with "coming soon". Makes me fear this phone is going to get glossed over quickly.
I'm also really missing CM and the current root method is a little too involved for me and we don't have s-off yet (I'm not complaining here, I definitely appreciate all the devs who are working on it!). I've got about a week left on my return window and am still not sure if I'm going to stick with it.

I kept my Thunderbolt for 20 months (surprising, I know, lol), but I have a feeling if I do keep the DNA I'll end up buying a new phone in the spring/summer when the GS4 and others come out.
If you want bigger screen, very excellent battery life, micro sd card, and you like the added functionalities of the s-pen, then I would say go for note 2. If you care more about 1080p display of the DNA, think 5.5" screen is too much, prefer the better quality build of the DNA, then don't. Also if you care about custom kernals and Roms, then it goes without saying note 2 has the edge on that department.
Basically it's a trade off either way. See which things you prefer the most, and that would answer your question.

I was basing that on recent history (Samsung phones have generally been more supported on that regard that HTC phones) and based on availability of the phone. Note 2 is much more available to people around the world and the US (avaliable on all carriers in the US). Already more than 5 million units were sold and it's been out for two months only. Developers usually support popular phones more than less popular ones. But hey I could be wrong, I'm more wrong that right most of the time. Let's wait and see the situation 5 months from now.

I'm loving it!! Very fast, the speakers are great. A few things I'd like improvement on would be the rss feed choices for the home screen and I'm not fanatic about Beats Audio through headphones. Although I may throw a custom Rom on it hehe. The feel is perfect, not to heavy and not too light unlike the galaxy 3 which feels cheap.
Already extremely please with this phone and TMobiles service.
I have it since monday it's great! I'm coming from the HTC mytouch so it's really an incredible difference . The camera it's great as well and battery is lasting a lot
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
anybody else got the HTC ONE ?
its a huge adjustment coming from a pure google nexus 4. here are just some minor random notes:
- the build quality is great, but the phone feels rough on the sides like they havent been sanded down. ditto for the earplug hole. NOT A BIG DEAL.
- either i got a phone with zero gap or people are seeing things on their phones. again NOT A BIG DEAL.
- phone is loud for a phone, not for radio. compared to other phones, its awesome.
- beats audio doesnt come through on the speakers. you get no bass from the speakers. performs elegantly with earphones plugged in.
- the car dock is amaaaazing. must-have.
- the car mode is really well done. you can choose to listen to local radio stations through wireless with tunein. you can also add other apps to car mode home. navigation gives you google maps, appointments, gas station, restaurants, by photo, parking (parking structures), cafes, bars, atm, convenience store, pharmacy shopping and emergency.
- htc should have made the logo a real button. yes, its capacitive and we will be able to use it as a real button, but it doesnt light up like the back and home buttons and generaly looks out of place.
- facebook/twitter/messaging integration on sense is really well done. better then most alternatives ive seen.
- wish you could scroll diagonally on the apps drawer.
- wish you could turn off the feed.
- wish you could use your own icons on sense home.
- thought the notification light was going to be bigger. they used a hole on the grill to insert the light. but at least they included it.
- tmobile bloatware... ugh.
- everything is superfast and super responsive. havent seen a touch of lag yet.
- screen is amazeballs. dont know if its placebo effect, but it seemed to have looked better after 3-4 hours of usage. dunno if thats the screen warming up or my eyes getting used to it.
- really gritting my teeth at this s-on s-off thing, never had to deal with it before with samsung and nexus phones. but i knew what i was getting into.
- camera is VERY nice. havent had enough time to play around with it but it seems to snap photos very quickly and clearly.
- already feeling the effects of having run 4.1.2. coincidentally the first two apps i tried to install on the phone, creditkarma and dashclock dont work on 4.2.1, just 4.2.
- more apps then i care to number still have the menu button at the bottom, including facebook. little silly that you can run facebook home on the phone but the option bar takes up 1/5th of the screen.
- i sorely miss the aosp notification bar, although sense's isnt bad.
- phone gets pretty toasty after moderate usage.
- i can hold the phone comfortably but i have huge hands. still have to hold the pinkie at the bottom of the phone to keep it up.
I just wanted to upload 3 images comparing the Nexus 4 camera with and without flash to the HTC One without flash.
I am impressed with the camera so far! They were taken without trying to make them look nice just to see what it would be like in a moments notice to take an image.
Just got back from the shop with mine. First impressions:
-Thoroughly gorgeous, and feels perfect in hand. Nice weight - lighter than I was expecting but still totally solid.
-Screen is amazing. Razor sharp, bright, with great viewing angles and none of that AMOLED-turns-blue-if-you-tilt-the-phone nonsense.
-No gaps. (Serial FA34CW if anyone's interested).
-Power button is a little tricky to reach for me one-handed. I can just two-hand it though, not a big deal. Don't have any issues with the two-button arrangement.
-Haven't had a chance to try out music on it yet, but I got a call and I flinched, it was so loud. Vibration also seems very strong.
-Blinkfeed is nice to have, but I could see it being overwhelming if that was my only homescreen. I pushed it off to the side so I can look at it if I'm bored. Otherwise, I really like Sense 5 - nice clean design, all the stock apps have the Holo-style "view pager", and in general it just works great.
-Performance is excellent - this thing really flies.
-Typical T-Mobile bloatware. Disabled almost immediately.
-Haven't had a chance to use the camera yet. Still have to do some experimenting (and don't really want to take pictures of the random crap on my desk).
Overall I'm highly impressed. I think that, if HTC fails (knock on wood/fingers crossed that doesn't happen), it will not have been for a lack of trying, at least on the product side. They have the superior product - now they need to get the word out.

Settings>Apps, then swipe sideways to "All", then scroll through the list. When you find something you don't want, tap it and then tap "Disable". Tap "OK" when the "app may misbehave" pops up, and then repeat as desired. A couple of them (SoundHound and TunedIn Radio) can be fully uninstalled, but most can't unfortunately. Oh well, such is life with a operator-branded device. Kind of a pain but AFAIK this is the only way to sort-of get rid of them without root.
Roo is already available just unlock you bootloader and install twrp or cwm and then you can install supersu. That's what I did, then installed ti backup and uninstalling those first haha

Great phone, the tmobile version is the one to get: using an AT&T unlocked 64GB with T-Mobile gets me edge in supposedly "refarmed" areas more often than not, while the T-Mobile version always shows HSPA+.
Best phone i've had.
One thing that I hate though, why why why why why must I have Facebook crap in my gallery after loggining in!
went straight to unlock bootloader > flashed custom recovery > flashed ARHD 7.0 > now sitting on charge. love how it feel in hands

So flashing the ROM's available for the other versions works? I suppose since the hardware is essentially the same, it wouldn't matter as long as the radio is kept, right?

As for changing the Sense Icon's you can, I have done it, you just need to root the device and do a lot of work.

You can only flash roms that are designated for the HTC One M7 device. However, there are some issues with the signal properly reporting and other issues.

Thanks. Haven't had a chance to dig around the forums yet now that we finally have our own section, so I wasn't sure.
I'm kinda surprised that the M7 ROM's are fine but not the AT&T ones. I'm coming from the S2, where we used AT&T ROM's frequently (with a proper kernel of course).
