I concur... This was my situation yesterday while out and about. Ridiculous.

I have an Otterbox Commuter on my Vivid -- fits like a glove. Sure, they make it a bit more bulky, but you're buying it to protect the device, right? These things are pretty hard core. My old Atrix had an Otterbox Commuter on it when it fell from the roof of my moving car and bounced down the...

Honestly...Vivid battery life is hands-down the worst of any device (phone, PDA, laptop, tablet) that I've ever owned. I got my Vivid in early June when my Moto Atrix was lost. Since then, I've become a slave to the car charger, the wall charger, etc., and if I leave home without one or the...

Well???? Updates, please. And who got the e-mails? I still get no updates available. Abandoned hope for ICS a long time ago.

Sounds like a good move. And those speeds are for real. Now...for comparison's sake...how about some AT&T "4G" speeds from my Speed Test log (these are my "best" speeds): 3.78 Mbps down, 1.60 Mbps up The one ran while typing this: 1.44 Mbps down, 1.42 Mbps up -- and a ping of 119ms. And...

My first Atrix, back in February, had what sounds like the issue you had with #2. It would jump wildly from screen to screen, apps would open that I never touched, scroll up & down, shut apps down -- it was absolutely possessed. Brought it to a store & showed the rep. All it took was one...

Hilarious. This forum is sounding like an iPhone forum. Atrix is out since February, and people are jumping to upgrade simply because a new one is coming out 8 months later? Grab yer lawn chairs (and disposable income!) -- we're camping out at the AT&T kiosk in the mall!

The Atrix is a notorious battery hog, so count me in.

And a few more...

A few from here and there...

Funny, but since installing the GB upgrade, my previously hideous battery life has actually become pretty good. FAR better than before, when I couldn't go 8 hours without tapping out the battery completely.

And I *think* my battery life has improved somewhat. Anything over abysmal is a big improvement.

Wow -- what a difference a day makes. Yesterday at this time, I was hitting Moto's Atrix support team for a way to stop the download of GB....having read one too many horror stories on the forum. Well, after completing the download, I followed some advice on here and did a factory reset --...

The big issue I've come across is the loss of (free) tethering capability. Used the old APN method with GB and it won't connect. Maybe the good folks who figured out the last one will find another way.

Yeah -- but won't a hard (factory settings) reset blow away everything I've downloaded? Do I trust Motoblur to restore all that stuff?
