Guest kdkinc Posted July 18, 2010 Report Posted July 18, 2010 I was asked for my DroidX opinion in "Ninja's Nonsense" thread but I did not want to hijack his great thread. Short and to the point. I read all the tech stuff...blah..blah.. blah its out their to find :angry: Most of you reading this like me had the Omnia i910 first. We were most likely excited could not wait to get home and play with it. Why it was a rocket ship, at that time. :D However things "happened" so they gave me a i920 as a replacement. It was first love all over again. All this due to "Great Chefs" with creative minds and super human strength,able to jump over tall buildings..... Well, those feelings of love(material) and excitement are 10 fold for the DX :D ;) . Like any new phone it may have quirks but its all a learning process. I had to ask myself,self,How many "Chefs have gone to Android and how many have returned?? We all know many have been assimilated never to return. Bottom line I guess you could say I LIKE THIS PHONE :( :lol: Thank You :lol: :lol:

Guest pw-man Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 Unfortunately the assimilation in the Moto camp for Droids leaves you locked in as Moto has highly locked down their boot loader, so no root or custom roms... Thus I still have my 920 (and loving it - thanks Ninja ;-) ) though the Fascinate may be the next device.... Did visit the X camp today... nice phone, definetly love the processor... a bit large in my hand... but size is definitely a personal preference

Tomorrow will much better.... :angry: :D Ps does a Die hard battery come with the Scorpion??? Edited July 19, 2010 by kdkinc

Guest snapz54 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 comes with a solar powered backpack and a special pedal attachment for making your own nighttime energy
Guest the sandman Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 Where can one acquire this solar powered backpack. Sounds intriguing
Guest amdzero Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 Where can one acquire this solar powered backpack. Sounds intriguing It's down the aisle from the "Positron Collider"
Guest Aximtreo Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 You guys crack me up. If you go to the Ingersol Rand website, you will see the latest and greatest Diesel generator to tow behind the Pickup for power. :angry:
Guest pw-man Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 It always seems impossible until its done. -Nelson Mandela Yeah - I know... and I hope that it does happen, if not just to stick it to the MotoMan... as for me, I've been extremely please with the Sammy offerings over the years, so as long as they continue to deliver the good, I'll still be around that camp... The cellphone technology is just blazing right now... actually makes it tough to want to jump in ... But it is way cool!
Guest nugiene Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Technology or not, it may be a great piece of hardware but, this is why I'm going to stay away from Android for awhile. Maybe just some junk though, you decide. http://www.prisonplanet.com/group-calls-fo...ia-and-nsa.html

If you look at any technology theirs always a method of control by the powers to be. I guess if it gets to the point that I think you suggest then my resolve is to turn it off. I hope for our sake your wrong... :angry: :D :( Ps I really like my DX ;)
Guest jaycarl Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) I too love my i920 Don't really flash all the time cause I use my phone for work quite a bit everyday. What I love most about the i920 is that it works for me with out fail everytime. Using ninjas 21908 lite rom, MS 3.5.5, to many apps to list. What i do the most is use it for wifi-tethering, next would be organizational tool, then communication. Installed are games and I store videos just in case I get stuck in a line or something. More often, I use its TV-Out feature to connect to the LCD's at different office locations. I have an extra i920 that I let family use to watch movies I come across. Quality is just like playing a DVD. Also starting to use Skype more often since I figured how to get the front camera working. I use it with the kids mostly. Not real practical for work. My netbook is what I use if I have to have a video conversation or meeting. Its does everything I want it to very quickly without cliches. Plus the display is beautiful to look at. The blacks are BLACK and the colors are VIBRANT. IMO its a lot cheaper to own a Windows Mobile phone if you like to customize your device exactly the way you like it. I also think its a lot more complicated to hack Android devices then Windows Mobile which will hopefully keep our wonderful chefs cooking WM goodies. Edited July 21, 2010 by jaycarl

You are using my rom, but you also have a front facing camera on your Omnia 2? Or did I just read that wrong? Edited July 21, 2010 by Ninja4Hire

I saw that too.... man Ninja, I knew your roms were good, but... holy cow... of course, if you had a front facing camera it wouldn't be able to take a picture of you anyway, since ninjas don't exist ;-) Edited July 21, 2010 by pw-man
Guest kdkinc Posted August 1, 2010 Report Posted August 1, 2010 Two weeks of use : I rooted yeah I unrooted Yeah again. Bottom line I LIKE my DroidX :( Miss the great i920 rom updates and all the help.... THANK YOU :( :P

Have you flashed a custom rom? I think if I could get the HTC Sense overlay on the Droid X I'd jump ship today.

Have you flashed a custom rom? I think if I could get the HTC Sense overlay on the Droid X I'd jump ship today. The rooting of the phone lets you delete some crapware and and use wifi as a "hotspot" with out the "hotspot" $20.fee. Kind of similar to the the tethering deal we had. As far as Rom's NO B) at the moment...Moto has a special deal to prevent this called efuse.... :( Man if you ever got Sense on this phone they would name a bar after you :( :P :P Edited August 1, 2010 by kdkinc
Guest spannville Posted August 2, 2010 Report Posted August 2, 2010 I abandoned the O2 ship couple of days ago and defected to the Droid X. And let me tell ya, the X is the best phone i have every had! I appreciate the chefs that improved the experience of the O2. I thought I would regret getting a droid phone, but found it was the best tech choice I've made in a while. The X is stupid fast in everything it does apps, internet, and etc. So this is my official so long to you all.

I'm not sure why you would want that, both my parents have HTC androids and they always come to me to get them to work...get to play around with them a lot and the android version of sense compared to the windows version is garbage.
Guest cliffco823 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Posted August 24, 2010 I called Verizon on another matter and they informed me that my upgrade period was Dec. (I guess I got the year plan). Then I asked about upgrading to the Droid X. They said they could work it out. I thought about it for a minute and told them I would wait. It was hard. Good decision?

Man I've been tempted a few times, even had a $150.00 tax free offer, but I held out. I really like the look of the Droid X, but I'm hopeful that Verizon will roll out LTE with 4G next year, and I'd like to jump on the bandwagon. Droid X won't be able to do 4G, so thats basically the only thing holding me back. I think I can wait till new years before I jump ship. I HIGHLY DOUBT I'll switch to winpo 7
