the link wouldnt work for me but its screen capture right? I downloaded it and it says no root needed but when I open it up it says "this 'sclib' service has to be installed/started using the ABD, or more information on how to install see 'Information Guide'".

I dont have access to my laptop right now to use ABD but Ill check it out and see if I cant get it working later on. Im shocked that Google hasnt put some kind of screen shot program in Android by now.

Here, this doesn't require root.

Just an update, stuck my SIM card back in my Nexus One, got the gingerbread 2.3.3 update, updated my app's and damn I love this phone again! I really wish the screen was bigger but that has been my only gripe with it.

Oh and as soon as I got everything updated I ran a speedtest and this thing hauls ass. I cant take screenshots yet (no root for 2.3 yet ) but it averages 2.75mbs down 1.5mbs up. Soooooo much faster than my fauxG Atrix. I am taking that thing back to the store Wednesday I think.

I may be joining you in returning the Atrix. If I do Ill probably go back to my Nexus One (gingerbread is supposed to be here any day on it) and wait out the iPhone 5 for my wife and decide who has a stronger 4G network and move over then. Verizon is having hell with the thunderbolt right now so I wont switch for it.

Copied from the Nexus S thread:

Well, i couldn't get a hold of a nexus with tmobile to try out, so i nabbed one off craigslist and i'm trying it on edge with at&t.

I already like this phone so much damn better than the atrix. My ONLY two complaints: not dual core, and no sd expansion slot. Other than that, i feel the Nexus S is superior to the Atrix in just about every way. It even scored within 200 on a quadrant test.

Motorola has really dumbed the Atrix down with 2.2, and their bullshit fucking blur software. The blur software makes this 1ghz dual core phone run almost slower than the clean 2.3.2 on the nexus s with a single core 1ghz chop.
Thanks to them encrypting the bootloader, I really don't see myself keeping the Atrix, even if it means having to use Edge on at&t. I really don't want to be stuck on a Moto kernel, and a blur rom.

Here are two links for the cameras, both taken with Vignette under same conditions:

Inside shots (flash and no flash) also favored the Nexus S too.

Export to CSV then copy to SD then to phone or Google Voice if you have one.

All of my contacts were synced between itunes and outlook - anybody have a suggestion what the best method to transfer them is?

[71chevellejohn]

Be aware all it says is H+ so that may be 3G. I dont even know if it will change to show Edge.

It does show to say edge - I saw that earlier... either way, the fastest I ever saw with the iphone was around 1MB down. The rest of the phone is way better than the iphone too and it's still box stock.

[Lason]

Yep, got mine a few hours ago and it feels as solid as my 16GB 3G and I never had any problems with. I'm sure if you were to pop the plastic off the back of an iphone it would just like the back of the Atrix.

As far as speeds go, I'm seeing ~1.8MB down/.3MB up out here in Abilene on H+.

I didnt watch the whole vid but if its about the back part, yes its flimsy because it has to be. With the way it attaches and comes off it would snap in half if it had no give. Once its snapped on the phone is a pretty solid brick with no give anywhere.

Saw this yesterday, that's why I was asking.

Well, i signed up for the 4gb tethering to get the $200 off the dock, but i'm not obligated to keep the 4gb tethering and can change it down the road. If rooting and setting up for tethering will get me around that, and the only bothersome thing is that it'll says "verifying status", i'm ok with that.
