If you were going to get an Android phone that you intended to root what phone would you get and why?

I am going to get an android phone in the nest couple of months with the intention if rooting it and using it as a hotspot (grandfathered unlimited ATT).

I just got a Motorola Razr but I'm on Verizon.   I'm grandfathered with an unlimited plan too, I tether it to use it for internet at work.

HTC Vivid or Galaxy S2 Skyrocket.

Both are LTE.  I will be getting the Vivid next week.

Don't bother if it is not LTE.

End of thread.

Cnet picked it as the best AT&T Android phone.

Just be sure to get it through an AT&T Factory Retail Store.  I got my Galaxy S last year through Radio Shack because it was a lot cheaper, but lost my unlimited plan in the process...

So the only reason you like the Galaxy SII is the huge screen?  Nothing else?

No. The reason is that it is the highest rated and flagship droid for AT&T. If I were forced to have AT&T and forced to have a Droid. The G2s is the best phone offered inside of those perameters. The thing is, the new est droid comes out every month. For VZW right now the RAZR is the best. As soon as the Nexus hits that will be the best. But they seem to be getting larger and larger. One of the many reasons why I don't have one.
