[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintrxtrem:
Which is tomorrow if you're on EST.

I'd REALLLLY like to know if the Incredible 2 supports simultaneous voice/data over 3G like the Thunderbolt..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
Yes today is weds... EST brotha lol
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveG12543:
I'm pretty sure the Thunderbolt only does voice+data cause it uses 4G or Wi-Fi for data and does voice over 3G. The Inc2 doesn't have 4G, so the best it can do is Wi-Fi+3G for your simultaneous usage needs.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintrxtrem:
I'm 100% certain the Thunderbolt does voice/data over 3G and since the Inc2 has the same processor its possible it can as well.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzo.olivares:
nope the only reason the thunderbolt can do simultaneous voice/data is because it does it over 4G LTE which is a GSM technolorgy which can do simultaneous voice/data over 3g/4g. The incredible 2 won't be able to do that because it has 3G CDMA which does not support simultaneous voice/data over 3G
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintrxtrem:
No, I'm afraid you're wrong. It's called SVDO and the Thunderbolt is the first CDMA device to support it. Go ahead and search for yourself.

Edit:

SVDO has been discussed on xda as well as other sites. First thread I could find: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=994994

I've also verified voice/data over 3G on my friend's TB.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveG12543:
Huh, I stand corrected. Interesting! Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emkorial:
I have it this morning, what do you want a pic of? I might be able to snap one quick

The display quality is fine, and it is very bright, but it has a LOT of glare and reflection on the screen. That can bother some people, if you have any sensitivity to glare, this screen willl kill you.

Quality wise, it looks no different than the Inc at all.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syntrix:
This is incorrect. TB 4G off, you can do voice and data at the same time. All of that has been confirmed here on this very forum over and over and over again!

Sure, with 4G on, it works as you described, but that is not the answer to the question :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzo.olivares:
never mind it's somekind of "breakthrough" they have with the radio inside the htc thunderbolt. If the Incredible 2 has this radio it will be able to do simultaneus voice/data over 3g.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syntrix:
That's the 64,000 dollar question for the DINC2!!! :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
The processor has nothing to do with the radio. The only reason thunderbolt does is because it's svdo
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trillonometry:
that's the 64,000 dollar response to a post on this thread!!! whos got answers?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
The inc2 is only cdma not svdo thus no data and voice.

EDIT: Actually it's supposedly a world phone... Hmmm perhaps it will support voice and data...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al2x:
I think that it just means it has a SIM card for international use, similar to the likes of most VZW bb's, that work CDMA in the states and GSM when international.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syntrix:
CDMA/LTE actually.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mooremic:
Is the led notification light multicolored like the OG Droid or is it like the Inc 1 being red/green only?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintrxtrem:
Right, and the Qualcomm MSM8655 chipset is what makes the Thunderbolt SVDO capable. That's what I meant when I said processor.

Wow that was a good read actually thanks :-)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoCalSpecialist:
I'm gonna be honest here..i think the op is full of it.

all the info provided anyone could have posted just by watching the Wirefly vid..or even reading the article VZW provided last night.

In Other News:

i went to 4 locations today in the greater San Diego area thru out my day to see if i can actually cop the device using my corporate acct and all 4 retailers ( 3 of which were 4G retailers ) did not budge on letting me do so. i did get a **** load of specs tho.

- Screen glare..not so much. that was one thing there were adamant about

- Rubberized backing is still to be true ( HTC is now black and not silver )

- Its about 3/4 of an inch larger..and the difference is super noticeable.

- Apparently alot more responsive ( i dunno i didnt get to play with it )

- 720p HD video recording

- and lastly for those of us who were going to take advantage of the Dinc1 trade in program..its not applicable for the Dinc2. they will not honor it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
Noo... You made me sad. I was hoping for the program... I want a droid inc 2...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
What trade in program?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoCalSpecialist:
there was a killer trade in prog vzw was running for smartphones and we, at one time, could get up to $150 for our dincs as long as it was functional.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
That's a pretty sweet deal, kinda sucks if they limit what you can use that towards though. Was that only for corporate accounts or something?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nasty64:
I just got $100 trade-in for mine from Verizon's website. Going down to the store today to buy the dinc2!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintrxtrem:
Sadly, reports are that the Incredible 2 will NOT do SVDO. Wonder if this was a conscious decision to not enable it or if it's just not possible.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nasty64:
I just got home from the Vz store with my new dinc2 and I can confirm that it doesn't do voice and data simultaneously.

It's really not much of an upgrade from the dinc1 as far as I can tell at this point. The bigger screen is nice. Everything else seems about the same. I'm having trouble getting used to it because of the Sense (my dinc1 is rooted and I've had an AOSP ROM on it for many months).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdeblaz:
Simulataneous voice and data is possible on the Thunderbolt because it's on the ePHRD network for 3G service... this is currently down (or maybe it's been fixed by this time?). That being down was partially the reason why all Thunderbolts nationwide yesterday only had 1X data service.

Only the TB is on the ePHRD network.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emkorial:
Think it all you want, I had one in my hand. I still have the box. Check every single thing I posted now that the device is out, it is 100% true

And if anyone says that screen doesn't have glare, they are lying. And it's not 3/4 inch longer, closer to 1/4 inch bigger all around. You can't go to a store and use your corporate account, you need to have a corporate representative send you one (before they were released)

The menus and animaitons are faster, but the responsiveness isn't reallyt useful or anything, things just move a little faster.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
Everybody else seems to be disagreeing with you. I played with one in a store I'd say there it little to no glare... Not lying.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoCalSpecialist:
so i got my device today FINALLY..

and i was outside today in San Diego's super sunny 89 degree weather..typing up a storm of a txt msg to my brother..and posting FB updates while waiting in front of a Jamba Juice.

NO GLARE.

u comrade..are the lie.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
And I still say, its not worth the upgrade, if you are wasting an upgrade on this phone, you obviously have to much money. This phone should have been out a year ago. I played with this thing for an hour, and there is no way in hell i would trade my dinc for it. It has a slightyly bigger screenand a slightly newer processer, but it aint worth it. My dinc runnin optimized z smokes this dinc2. Why in the hell verizon took this phone this late in the game is beyond me. It is nothing compared to the Tbolt, which is only slightly more, has a bigger screen, and is 4g ready. Do not by this phone, it is way over priced. THe only difference is the ffcamera, WHOOOPEEEEEEE. Big FN deal, Not worth the money. Blow your jackson if you want to, but wait a few months, and you will get alot better phone.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzo.olivares:
Exactly the words i would have used I think The droid incredible 2 should have been released as the droid incredible 1 because they are basically the same thing and yes the droid incredible 1 smokes the droid incredible 2 running custom roms and kernels.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoCalSpecialist:
in retrospect youre both right...to an extent tho

yes the Bolt is faster, has the over glorified 4G and the larger display, even the kickstand is nice i get that, ive read it time and time again..

so my take on it all a couple of factors so to speak...without the bickering

one the device is at the very largest that i would go. so its ok for me. i actually enjoy the slight change in size

the change in processor, front facing camera, even the change in screen resolution is enough to have me sold...obviously.

the fact that myself and a few others are back in the kitchen after a long hiatus to produce roms is another additive, i must say.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
Pretty sure both incredibles had 480x800 resolution?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
More Ram too. You're also comparing stock rom to rooted which is not really fair.. I think stock versus stock Din2 wins out easily.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nasty64:
I've had the dinc2 since Thursday and I'm very happy I bought it (coming from a rooted dinc1 with CM7). The more I use it the more I like the size of the phone and the screen. It seems like it's the perfect compromise between the original dinc1 and the big 4.3" phones (which are too big for me. my phone has to fit in my dress shirt pocket without looking too much like a pocket protector). The screen handles glare way better than the dinc1 did -- which for me was practically useless outdoors.

For you guys that don't see it as an improvement, that's fine. But don't assume just because it doesn't appear to be an improvement for you that it's not good for someone else. I'm very happy with mine.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efaden:
I agree with the size comment. I wound up getting one for me and one for the wife for just that reason. The others are just too big and the T-Bolt eats batteries. I just hope we can get root and CM7 going on it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungGun821:
So I got mine today.. coming from AT&T to verizon for the first time.. the thing I notice today, less 3G where I live. I had fine 3G with AT&T but now it seems like 3G sucks where I am. I see the 3G logo for a min or so then goes to the "1X" logo..

Could that be an issue with the phone or is it verizon?

I hope it gets rooted fast so I can get rid of these add on apps and maybe a custom rom/modem to help..

[Hero, G2 Touch General] olejonbj:
Hi! My HTC Desire is broke so I had to use my Hero again. I decided to root it, and installed VillainROM 13. It works great, and is much faster than stock.

I only have one small problem with Facebook for HTC Sense. It works as expected when it comes to pulling information like birthdays and status updates from Facebook to the contacts I have linked with Facebook, but I can't get it to show the profile pictures. For example, if I add a new contact (test), and press up in the right corner to link it and then choose Facebook, my list of Facebook friends appears, but not their pictures! My GF used my Hero before, and it worked fine with stock ROM. It also worked fine with my Desire.

Is this a known bug, or something that is just affecting me? If it's only me, should I try to flash the ROM again?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pulser_g2:
Facebook-htc integration likely to blame - their integration is pretty poor to be honest
[Hero, G2 Touch General] olejonbj:
Seems unlikely. It worked well on stock ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bassmonkey:
I had this issue when I was on stock 2.1, if u check the HTC sense Facebook page its a very common problem. It started working again of its own accord after a few weeks, during which time I contacted HTC who blamed Facebook, I contacted Facebook who blamed HTC :-)

Also, whenever it has worked status and event updates are fine buy contact pics have never updated themselves for me rregardless of what Rom I've been on, they do on my gf's wildfire tho :/

Also :-) if you changed you Facebook settings to use only secure login your phone will have none of it.

I'm on v13 n bar the pics its working for me (@the mo :-))

Hello everyone,

I would need expert help here... 3 months ago I have tried to root my HTC Desire that was running (it still is) 2.2 I have tried to use the one-click flash unrevoked, I enabled USB debugging, I had plugged it in my Mac and I tried to flash it. The computer starts the process, at one point it says restarting bootloader, but my phone just stayed off. When I powered it on manually, it just worked, but it wasn't flashed. I used for the next 3 days, turning it on and off every night and it would work, until it just turned on, went passed the pin code check and a message would pop up for every app saying it is not responding...

I got a friend to fix it. 2 weeks after that, without doing anything to it, it just did not start and gave me the same problem.... I had to send it in for repair, HTC opened my phone replaced everything at the exception of the case. Although, I want to root it, I am afraid to break my phone again... Any suggestions ?

This is right.. there is no way to make every market app transparent without doing it one by one.. but for just the basic stuff dreamsforgotten has a pretty clear theme called crystallized I think. You might wanna put in some requests for your most used apps... or they might be floating around some forums somewhere.

cd's or tapes?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoulMan72:
There is a thread in the Android Hacking and Development forum that has a huge list of transparent apps. You can go to that forum and just do a search for transparent in the advanced search. I am running some of them now on my Epic and am liking it. It would be cool though to have all the proprietary phone screens and apps transparent too without any frills. For example, the Syndicate Frozen 1.02 (or substitute your favorite ROM here) with all the in phone stuff (non downloaded apps) transparent.

Again, if anyone could do that, it would be awesome.

I transparented as much as possible in a theme called froyo window. I even did the background for the system menus like in settings but realized how impractacle it was. The black background that I cleared also hid the status bar when you open apps such as camera, basically anything you opened the status bar was still there but since it was in the "background" you can't access it. If anyone wants to take that theme and play some more with it feel free. I never updated it past di18 but it wouldn't be hard to copy the framework values over to ec05. I'm not volunteering my time to it so don't take it that way lol.
