Bye Bye Atrix HD


 Bye Atrix HD

Today I listed my Motorola Atrix HD for sell, I can tell you for sure, I will miss this phone when it is gone. We have had good times together, it has been through a lot with me. It is also what made me start developing. Not sure what will come of this and where android will take me.
Well like I said, we have been through a lot. Battery mod, ROM testing, many drops/falls, and some bricking. Thank god for Matt Groff, leader of batakang, or my phone would to this day probably be bricked. Just two days ago I was on Swappa and found a Galaxy Nexus for an awesome price, and you can't pass that up. So in a single click of the mouse it is on to a different phone.
I feel kind of a bond with this phone, as it kind of started off my android development. I mean 6 months ago I was an Apple using sheep that had done no more than Jailbreak and root an Inspire 4g. I mean I flashed the heck out of the 4g, but it was never mine. I put hours of learning and developing for the AHD, that was mine. Not to mention I can honestly say I have come to enjoy the xda AHD community.
Well we all know how useful it is to develop for a Nexus device at my level of knowledge. So I am concerned on where I will go from here. Another Moto phone in my future? Well absolutely! The thing is when? Hopefully the same Motorola devs will still be around when I get back. Who knows a lot can happen in just a few months, I guess I can just hope for the best.
So with this all being said Joker 2.0 and another ROM I am currently working on with Matt Groff, will be all I have for the locked bootloader Atrix. I will be on the lookout for something decently priced in need of a dev, hopefully Motorola, but until then I will be amongst all of the normal phone users.
