[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thechopster:
I just got a Thunderbolt coming from an Incredible (coming from a Fascinate). I don't think say that you can't go wrong with the Incredible. It is solid in almost all areas. I used Juice Defender and then used Green Power while using a stock EVO battery and I didn't have any isssues with battery life. The Incredible has basically the same processor and is very snappy even when compared to any of the newest phones. I bought the Thunderbolt for the 4G speed and the front facing camera. I hardly use the front camera and the 4G speed is fast but I never have a strong signal to really take advantage of it. I use wifi 90% when I need internet so 3g on the Incredible is hardly noticed (3g isn't that bad for most things anyway) The larger screen is really nice and, to the contrary of what others say, doesn't require a man purse- fits in my pocket fine without a problem. However, in sum, I can honestly say that upgrading to a Thunderbolt isn't all that I thought it would be and I would be just fine with the Incredible.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPilla00:
I don't know why you would buy old technology at this point - the incredible is almost a year old. After having the incredible and using it more and more for browsing the net, I wish I had a little bit bigger screen. Maybe not the size of the Thunderbolt but tthe incredible 2 size would be perfect. Also, I upgraded to the extended battery on my incredible because the battery life is unbearable IMO even with root and custom roms. I haven't looked but I'd hope the Incredible 2 will have better battery life.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emkorial:
Finally found someone who had one in stock, wirefly.com had them, and it was free with a new line of service, which I needed (I'm coming from Sprint). So I sprung for the year long protection plan. Phone should be here Wed or Thu. I got 2 weeks to back out if something comes up.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorilla*:
meh... Incredible 2.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DKSE:
Id would go for the Incredible 2. It has a superior processor and more ram. Also bigger screens are not that cumbersome. If my friend who is 4'9" 90lbs and always wears tight pants with small pockets can lug around his Galaxy S all day I don't think its a problem. Also the DInc is being discontinued, after the gingerbread ota don't count on it getting newer versions of android except through custom roms, which will also die down when the devs get their upgrades. Not to mention all the other under the hood things HTC may have overhauled such as the motherbaord.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brisdaddy1207:
The 2 is a world phone you might want to get the thunderbolt that has the new sense UI and it'll get 2.3 update before the incredible. I'm on my incredible bow and love it but figure I would give you q little info if your planning on getting a new phone.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I Am Marino:
I just got my Inc about a month ago so I'm stuck with it for a while, so far it's worth it to me, it gets the job done.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzo.olivares:
Incredible 2

I'd wait for the inc2 because of the front facing camera 768mb ram newer 1ghz snapdragon processor and 4 inch display which is a perfect size not to big or small and because it is a world phone and because it will get more updates than the original incredible THE INCREDIBLE 2 might even get the rumored Android Ice Cream Sandwhich which the incredible one will not get and the incredible one might not even get sense 2.0

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azgoofball:
I bought my DInc off of CL for 200 back in December, so Im not stuck on a stupid Verizon contract. If you dont care about those things, then wait for a DInc2. My only fear about DInc2 and the Thunderbolt is that it may be severely locked down, which could hamper ROM development.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dhessler5:
Thy have their pros and cons but if it is between the Incredible and Incredible 2 I say stick with the original. I2 has some cool extra's (2 camera's) but because the screen is larger and the resolution isn't any higher it won't look as sharp as D1.

If you want a newer phone I suggest the Thunderbolt or the Droid Bionic (that thing looks like it could be awesome!) but if you are fine with the incredible for a cheaper price it is a wise choice.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fillyo:
From a former Incredible owner and current TB owner, I suggest you go with the incredible 2, will be perfect size, more RAM and better processor, and if you don't need 4g, will hold you over. My wife still has an incredible, but it really feels like a toy after owning the TB for a few weeks, so small and light, and kinda feels cheap compared to the TB.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenneu:
I picked up a like-new 2 month old Dinc for $150. No contract. I just called in with the MEID number before purchasing and it was clean. No contract... I also picked up a couple of Erises to mod as well. $60 and $75 each. If I brick one playing around with Roms, no huge loss...

I'm not sure if I'll every go contract again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Version_3:
I bought a like-new Incredible from swappa.com. I figure I can do this on a cycle and never sign a contract again since VZW is canning 1 year contracts.

I weighed the pros and cons. I like tinkering. I am not seeing it to be as easy to tinker with the Incredible 2 as it is the original. My Droid is also at that point where doing common things together like navigation and music are making it get too hot.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] incubus26jc:
Im going to wait to get anything in the near future. Unless its for development reasons.

Eventually there will be a phone with Sense 3.0 and dual core processor etc.. for Verizon.

Have you guys seen Sense 3.0?

If i get anything now, i will regret it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
That new lockscreen is tits!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wardroid:
if you are happy with a 3.7" screen, stick with the inc. that is the only thing making me look at newer phones, everything is else awesome. there are so many options to customize it, there is really no other point, for example I just put a 2.2 rom on mine, so basically it can do everything the newest htc phones can do and it is completely unlocked and rooted.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emkorial:
Got the phone, and it;s already packed up, waiting to get shipped back. Apparently I was unaware that HTC changed the screen type after I got the incredibles from work, and SLCD screens have more glare and give me headaches. I'm beginnning to think someone in HTC is just sitting around thinking of ways to **** with me.

If I can manage to score one of the AMOLED ones from work though (I might), how could I get service with no contract?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
Just walk into Verizon and tell them that. Basically the only reason most people are on contract is because they need a phone. So you just walk in with the phone and tell them no contract.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenstyle:
My only complaint with the DInc is its shotty battery life. I can only imagine how the THunderbolt and other dual-core phones hold up.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzo.olivares:
Not really i'd say the incredible 2 is just the HTC thunderbolt without 4G LTE.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
Not even. The Inc 2 still has a 1ghz processor, a slight ram upgrade, and a front facing camera. I would expect a little more of an upgrade from the original > inc 2.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoCalSpecialist:
that's more than enough for me tho.

the size of the Thunderbolt was a major turn off for me, hence why i stuck with my Dinc.

from what ive read/seen im pretty confident that the Dinc 2 will keep the majority of the same features along with some minor but appreciated upgrades that will continue to keep me as a fan.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
Still looks like a good phone, yeah, I just would have expected more in a year that's all.

Not really impressed that they kept the resolution the same while upping the screen size either..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffkro:
If I were going to be in the market for a new phone, I would be wanting 4G and a dual core processor for sure. I like my incredible but it has really been passed by since it came out. I'm just going to let my contract run out and see what is available at the time.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffkro:
Indeed I will not be buying any phone until I read on here that it has been rooted!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gospeed.racer:
TB is definitely not locked down, mine has been rooted for a week now:p

I came from a Nexus, LOVED it, but hated Tmo. I hated the Inc for quite a while, it just wasnt what the Nexus was. I lived with it, and roms came around and I finally got one I like on there. Fast forward a couple months, and I dropped it. I had protection, but it was a 4ft+ drop on a corner. So yeah, time for an upgrade. I looked at the phones and decided the Thunderbolt, with a screen that seemed WAAAAY too big, was what I wanted. It has been a good phone, the 4g speeds are awesome, but very limited in my area. The cameras are great, and all around the phone is just as good as my Inc. You get used to the size pretty quickly, its not so bad. Going back to an incredible size screen is like you going back to an Eris size screen now. The TB has some very strange build issues, like covering the loudspeaker with the kickstand, and not being able to charge while in kickstand mode, but honestly its pretty livable and trivial.

If I had it to do over, I would have a very hard time deciding between the Inc and the TB, but if you have 4G in your area....go for it. Its AMAZING

where there is access. The size of the Inc is great, but after staring at a TB size screen you probably wont want to go back!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffkro:
Yeah, I figure a 4.3" smart phone might negate the need to by a tablet. I might play around with 4" screens first though.

My wife received a text this morning and then her phone froze. I pulled the battery and rebooted. When I open handcent (and the stock SMS app) I get a popup error that flashes for half a second then disappears and the app doesn't run. Any suggestions?

[Epic 4G General] _-Jay-_:
Syndicate Rom Frozen 1.1.0 with Twilight Zone Kernel. I am using the same Rom and I don't have any issues. She has been running this Rom for a couple weeks now.
[Epic 4G General] noesilva:
I had the same problem after using wireless tether. Wiping and reflashing was the only way i got it to work
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
lots of members have had problems w/ SRF 1.1.0 and lots of members have had good luck.

Seems as if it plays nice w/ some devices and not others.

Time for a different ROM ? wipe data and reset ?
[Epic 4G General] _-Jay-_:
I wiped data and reflashed the Rom. Seems to have worked. Thanks for the help.
[Epic 4G General] noesilva:
After u get ur apps reinstalled and everything back in place id do a backup just in case it happens again
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
You have corrupted your data. The ROM has journaling off, so as soon as you pull your battery anything that isn't saved will be lost/corrupted
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9kracing:
I'm about to take my phone down to sprint for a blown speaker, I'm worried they might replace it. I'd like to make a full nandroid backup just in case, and then just restore it on the new phone if that happens. Is this possible?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
It is if you are rooted. If sprint sees that your phone doesn't have the stock recovery they will probably not replace your phone; as when you root you void your warranty.

So if you are you might want to nandroid backup and then odin EC05 or DI18 and then OTA to EC05. Then root the new replacement and restore nandroid.

if not rooted:

You can use an app like MyBackup Pro; its a paid app but you can try it for like 30 days, so you can backup your apps and data, keep the SD Card and put it in the replacement (your photos are on it as well). Then on the replacement; download the app again and restore.

Hope that helps and good luck at sprint
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Check out App Brain also. Some file managers let you backup apps to the SD card but that is not much different than just redownloading them from the market.

Other than MyBackup and App Brain like mentioned above, you would need to root for many more options then unroot to return your phone.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9kracing:
Ya, I planned on Odin'ing before I take it in, but I was hoping I didn't have to go through the trouble of rooting, flashing roms, kernals, themes, sd speed fixes, etc when I get a new one. I have my backup pro, but it wont restore anything besides my apps and data correct?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
Right MyBackup pro will only do call logs, texts, apps and their data.

You can do a nandroid backup before you odin back to stock, that is saved in a folder called clockworkmod/backup. as long as you keep your sd card; when you re-root your replacement you should be able to boot to recovery and restore
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidApprentice:
Use MyBackup ROOT. It's free on the Market and can back up and restore just about everything, although it's not a total image like Nandroid.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taekwondo4ever:
just a quick question:

how do you ota back to ec05 after odin-ing back to..well ec05? Im new to rooting etc. thanks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9kracing:
awesome that's exactly what I wanted to hear
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
You may have an MD5 mismatch, if that is the case make a nand backup on the new phone then take the MD5 file and paste it into the older backup.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerChameleon:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9kracing:
Heh, I had a feeling it wasn't going to be that easy. If I have to start mounting the phone to pull off backups, modify them, do a new backup, etc... I might as well just flash the ROM, Kenel and theme lol. Ah well, I was hoping it would be as easy as restoring a nandroid backup once I rooted.

Thanks for the help guys.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] running_the_dream:
Do the nandroid backup. Move that folder to a location on your pc (or keep your sd card). If you do get a replacement, you just have to do the one-click root w/ cwm. Odin to the appropriate froyo for your rom, then restore. Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
First: Not possible, you can't "update" to the same version you are already on, you have to odin to Di18.

Second: If you dont even know the answer to this, seemingly simple, question, why are you rooted?

Wipe data for start and reboot. If nothing happens then go into download mode and flash a new rom following the instructions in the relevant thread. I think that is the only solution I'm afraid. If you haven't made a backup with titanium you lose it all...

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before, but I searched and couldn't find any good step-by-step instructions...

I rooted my phone successfully using the Hack Kit. I'm actually getting a replacement phone sent to me (the one I had received had all these scratches on it), and would like to get everything completely back to stock and unrooted before I return this phone. Could someone please point me to the right place? Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
look in bubbys one click faq. He tells you how there. First s on. Then run stock ruu. This is straight from the faq.

11.Q: How do I return my Inspire back to factory/stock? A: For warranty purposes, you may need to completely turn your phone back to the way it was when you bought it. This means S-On and non-rooted. To do this you have to two things: Download and run bubby323’stool from here: http:// www.mediafire.com/? 2ttk3b883p7ujbw Download and run the stock RUhere: http://www.filefactory.com/file/ b50b7a1/n/ RUU_Ace_Cingular_US_1.80.502.3_RadiMake sure you run the S-On tool first, as the tool requires root permissions. Once complete, you should have a phone that is completely stock, just like when you pulled it out of the box for the first time. You WILL lose all of your data that is not backed up.

I agree The Dev forums are now more difficult to read. I'm not new to the community(not that you can tell that by my posts), but even I am getting a bit confused reading through the posts.
[Galaxy Tab General] TheATHEiST:
Dude, you should only be posting dev projects in here not your general discussions.

The forums were previously split and have now been rejoined as it did more harm then good. I just cant see how its "confusing" to anybody with common sense.

If you have a CDMA device you only need the CDMA roms, and if you have a GSM device then you want the GSM roms, simple.

Reporting post as its in wrong place.

PS. rating your own thread 5 starts is sad.
[Galaxy Tab General] suprajztwenty:
^^^^

this guy cracks me up....hes all like, im telling mom. why so damn anal? the topic had nothing to do with dev, you didnt even need to waste your time posting trying to correct someone.

im with the op, it WAS easier to navigate gsm/cdma split up. the ONLY reason it got brought back was because of this honeycomb crap...which looky there, it's primary devs are all cdma anyways. people complained after a cdma link ended up in a gsm thread...then they cry, oh WHYYYYY do i have to click another button?!? its the end of the world and my tablet wont survive unless its all cluttered in one place.

i agree with a couple posts saying the OP should just put the info in [brackets] and call it a day.

i still think they should be split up again.

as for reporting this thread, its a legit req to the devs, def not in the wrong section...there are other ways of telling them what you think but this way everyone can put in their 2 cents (myself included)
[Galaxy Tab General] IP IHI II IL:
Yup, there should be 2. With most of the dev threads being non-indicative its much harder to find anything, let alone whether or not the thread is for your device or not. Recombining the 2 SGT type threads was a bad idea. We're all gonna get carpal tunnel anyways, what's one more click?
