I am returning to the Incredible after dabbling with a Fascinate for a while. It just seems this thing will never die out. Developments has actually boomed since I was last here and that is great.

Much respect to the devs, you guys are awesome.
[Droid Incredible General] I Am Marino:
The original Incredible, the N1, and the Evo in my mind are the three pure Android phones that have cult status IMO.
[Droid Incredible General] dodgersrgood:
Just got mine a couple weeks ago so hopefully it won't die out anytime soon!
[Droid Incredible General] JeramyEggs:
I test drove the fanny too, and have to say it. The dinc crushes that phone. The dinc is like a Midwestern farmgirl, and the Fanny is like a Russian model. The dinc isn't quite as pretty, but when you need some heavy labor done, she goes like crazy until the task is done. While the Russian model looks at you with that pretty screen, and has no idea what you just asked her. ; )
[Droid Incredible General] matts290:
:D

Quite the comparison, haha.
[Droid Incredible General] lonnyrs:
i'm definitely not bored with it yet!! the only thing i think would improve it is 4G. other than that, i'll ride it to the end..
[Droid Incredible General] brando56894:
I have the Inc now (upgraded from the droid back in late March) and its a nice phone, but I definitely wish I had something more current (which I will come November). From a hardware standpoint its a nice phone with moderate hardware but from a modding standpoint it's not the top of the list since its still locked (and can be bricked, like my original one which I had for a week) and the hardware is showing its age when it comes to new software like Sense 3.

I believe you forgot the one that started it all: The Moto Droid.
[Droid Incredible General] k_nivesout:
What do you mean its locked? The inc1? Its easy as hell to root/s-off.

Hardware may be showing some age but the dev support is pretty good still.

And I'd second that about the OG Droid.
[Droid Incredible General] mmsnyder:
JoelZ has a Sense 3.0 ROM that runs beautifully on my dinc. No lagging, lots of free memory, its a solid daily.
[Droid Incredible General] gbenj:
The Dinc was and is my first android phone, got it when it came out last April.

Whenever I do move on, if its in December when I'm up for a new one, or later, its gonna be tough to move on. I've definitely been spoiled with the solidity of the phone and the ferocity of the dev community for it.
[Droid Incredible General] watt9493:
Im gettin a second for my gf. Anyone thay doesnt want thier dinc, im makin a stockpile to make mine last forever. :P

Youre looking at a crackflashing troll with ORD
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
sure at the right price ;-)

How could I.

IMO the G1 is the alpha of android phones. Hopefully we never see the omega.
[Droid Incredible General] ddgarcia05:
I just got my incredible yesterday, I haven't picked up my tbolt since. I'm glad to finally be back on miui.
[Droid Incredible General] refthemc:
I'm contemplating moving to the Tbolt or Inc2 but lack of Dual Core and CM7 is definitely stopping me. CM7 is keeping me nice and cozy with the Inc.
[Droid Incredible General] techobsessive:
Im contemplating getting the Droid 3 but man oh man is it hard. $450 for it? Idk. The incredible has served me very well, and it still has a ton of life in it. All I need to do is give it some body work... like a new chassis. I abused this thing way too much haha.
[Droid Incredible General] dpwhitty11:
Where did you hear $450?

Or is that assuming you can get $150 for your Inc and the Droid3 is $600?

I want that phone too. XD
[Droid Incredible General] techobsessive:
Hahaha well the Droid x 2 is only 450... just a guess ha. But I've been reading and looking at the Sensation... oh so tempting. The Droid 3 just isn't as pretty and polished... but it has a keyboard... and Motorola is unlocking handsets now. I hate decisions.
[Droid Incredible General] k_nivesout:
Don't count on the Droid 3 to have anything less than an encrypted bootloader.
[Droid Incredible General] dpwhitty11:
Idk why so many people don't like the look of the Droid 3, I think its absolutely beautiful. At this point I could really care less about the bootloader, I'd be happy just with root and adw launcher ex.

-CM7 ADR6300
[Droid Incredible General] techobsessive:
True...I mean you can either go for round and shiny, like the sensation or just a tank with the droid 3. And depending on the price,my next phone is going to either be the 3 or the DInc2. I mean, MOTO is unlocking bootloaders, so well get custom kernels, and ROMS will be great.
[Droid Incredible General] thebasuke:
I've had this dinc for bout two months.. its been a great phone.

I play games, surf, Facebook, and everything else expected out of a 20 year old.. I'm just having horrible luck finding the "right rom for me"..
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
miui +10!!!

[Droid Incredible General] mslam02:
Try skyraider 4.2, its my fav so far, but everyone likes something different.
[Droid Incredible General] jjrizzelcincy:
and don't forget about the ERIS!

it has more devs and support than any other phone i have seen on here
[General Questions and Answers] Efrencalvario:
Can somebody provide me the download link for MIKFROYO 4.6 and also explain how make the hotspot hacke work?
[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
I read on another website that if your dialer icon goes missing from the lock screen and apps after the ota update then just do a hard reset and it will come back.
[HTC EVO 3D] RedWingsFan:
Yea I lost mine after the OTA. I just replaced that icon with the internet icon since I use it more.
[HTC EVO 3D] i-l-l:
yep

I'd like to have it back but I didn't spend 4 hours today transferring all my stuff to just erase it all again.
[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
There may be another update but till then it look like it is gone. I for one will not OTA tomorrow when I get mine.
[Off-topic] alanthemanofchicago:
I will make this quick and painless.

NS4G or Evo 4

I am leaning toward the NS4 for the NFC and thinner profile

but the Evo has a better camera and sd-card

But SD isn't a huge thing, I use google music so most of my 10 gigs of music is there

Just put in your .02, and I will take it into consideration.
[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
Start a poll next time. It'll be easier to see the score.

I'd go with the NS4G, or wait til thanksgiving for the third generation Nexus. Although I've been told that the single core Nexus S is mighty powerful in its own right.
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
I have The Nexus S. It is a tremendous phone. Early google updates trump sense in my book (no matter how nice sense is...)

Or just wait until Thanksgiving and get the Nexus 3 like the poster above me suggested...
[Off-topic] alanthemanofchicago:
Thanks. Especially now since the ns4g is on sale for 50 bucks from wirefly, i think that would be the smart idea. But, on another note, wtf were samsung/google thinking with the odd touch-button order?
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
Every single android phone has a different button layout. I have no clue what any of them are thinking...
[HTC EVO 3D] jmen:
:mad: ok soooo i ordered my evo 3d from the premier site around 12:15 Midnight and received it today around 3:30, i Didn't have a chance to activate it til around 4:30. Once i activated it I was like a little kid on Christmas and couldn't put it down, i started syncing my contacts, Facebook, take pics, 3d etc. Well around 2-3 hours into it while i was downloading a Qik update from the market and browsing Xda it seems as a text was coming in and the phone froze for maybe 2 seconds and then shut down.... Now I can not get it to power back on, I called CS and tried just about everything except, standing on one leg hopping around with the phone upside down while pressing the volume down button and power button (although the sprint rep did metion to try it):rolleyes: So much for getting it early:mad:

Any one have any ideas that might be worth a try?
[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
Plug it in for about an hour without trying to turn it on. It may be so dead that it will not boot at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
That has happened to me if I was really abusing phone like running intensive apps for a long period..the phone would shut down bc the battery would overheat..let it sit like above poster said..I would think it could ne this being you said u were using tje Hell out of it
[HTC EVO 3D] Forrest250r:
NOPE your screwed you gotta buggy one, aint that a bit$%, garrr garrr garrrrr NOOOOOOooooooOOOOoo =P

totally being a tool here lol ;)

just pull the battery and then let it sit a bit and then charge for a while!

ALWAYS LET THE BATTERY CHARGE ALL THE WAY UP ON FIRST DAY!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] codito:
Make sure you're charging from the wall and not a USB port.
[HTC EVO 3D] jmen:
I've left the battery out for about 5 mins then put it back in and put the charger on, its been plugged in (wall charger) for about 20-30 mins now. But the thing that seems strange is the charging indicator doesn't even light up while plugged in.
[HTC EVO 3D] Forrest250r:
dang thats no good, go ahead an try and boot it up? 20 minutes should be plenty for it to have a strong enough charge to turn on... if not you may need to shoot to your local sprint store (corporate preferably for repair reasons and the such) and see about getting a new one!
[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
Just let it stay plugged in for a while then try turning it on.
[HTC EVO 3D] jmen:
Well the sprint rep set up an repair order at my local sprint store so I will definitely be stoping by tomorrow so they check it out
[HTC EVO 3D] rdcrds:
Id call account services and tell them you want a new one.I had a phone fixed before and it still had problems.You had it 1 day they will send you another right out but either way best to do it asap.
[HTC EVO 3D] jmen:
well according to what she said they would replace it in store for a new one so thats what im hoping for.
[HTC EVO 3D] imheroldman:
Try putting the battery in.the freezer for about 10 min. Seriously

Evo 0003, Decks 1.2, Tiamat, Vipermod
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
Because calling account services for every problem is the best thing to do.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
That sucks, I would try to get a new one. I had a strange experience when I turned mine on the first time. It bootlooped the boot animation 3 times before it booted up. I was like, wtf, I havent even flashed anything and its bootlooping on the first boot! Then it fired up and I haven't been able to get it to act up since then. The damn thing was probably over a hundred degrees when I took it out of the box. It was like 107 degrees in vegas today, and those UPS trucks don't have A/C in the back. I bet it was 140 degrees back there, because the thing was frying when I took it out of the box. I'm hoping that was the issue...she was a little hot!

I'm always concerned with delicate/sensitive items that are shipped out, lots of unpredictable things can happen.
[HTC EVO 3D] imheroldman:
Battery, freezer! Curious to see if it helps. I've had this happen on both my Evo's and it worked.

Evo 0003, Decks 1.2, Tiamat, Vipermod
[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
stores going to have the phone tomorrow?
[HTC EVO 3D] vinterchaos:
stores already have the phone
[HTC EVO 3D] mevensen:
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you might be stuck until Friday, at the soonest.

My EVO3D arrived by UPS today. Plugged in and powered up fine. Unplugged after charging and turned on, so I set stuff up. Screen wouldn't turn off with power button. After it timed out, screen wouldn't turn on with power button, still powers on with USB unplug or battery manipulation.

Okay. Bring into Sprint store.

They. Can't. Help.

Since this phone hasn't officially launched, tech can't touch it. Doesn't even have parts.

Okay, give me a new one.

They. Can't.

None of their phones are in the system until Friday. Manager called up the ladder for me, even to telesales, etc. Nothing they can do except order me a new one, which would arrive Monday, probably, Friday if I'm lucky.

This is the problem with the early purchase program. The phone doesn't exist to normal outlets yet.

It's too late to get anyone else. I might try some phone calls tomorrow, but I doubt I will get anything until Friday or Saturday at the earliest, when they can exchange my phone in store.

As best I can tell, it is not the linkage to the battery cover, I tried activating the power switch with my fingernail as well. Most be a bum power switch.

Ah well, the perils of the early adopter. Glad I can reactivate my OG EVO, although I had unrooted in preparation to turn in.
[HTC EVO 3D] Alanmw86:
pull battery, put battery back in, put on charger for hour, unplug charger, plug charger back in for a while.

when trying to boot the device, don't try with it plugged in.

I've noticed on a few phones that devices that have gone completely dead sometimes wont turn back on while plugged into a charger

Plan B. Grab beer and start crying.
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:
STOP...

WALK INTO THE STORE

DEMAND A NEW PHONE.

no need for you to second doubt your brand new phone.

Get a new one. I swapped out my phone 3 times, got new ones each time. If you do it within the first month of your phone, they HAVE to give you a new one, or else you can return the phone bc of the 30 day money back good stuff =)
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
I upgraded my E3D using the OTA so i dont know if its a OTA Bug. Can anyone confirm?

Please state if you are on new OTA or original Out Of Box Stock ROM
[HTC EVO 3D] robnelle:
for me

up time: 12:34

awake time 11:34

Out of box - no OTA yet. I always wait to take those until I find out what bugs it has! Make sure it's safe.
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
That's weird mine was left charging over night and uptime and awake time still the same. Can you tell me what accounts you have syncing?

Example Facebook Twitter watch HTCFacebook HTC sense
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
New update today that fixes syncing issues with the Watch and News apps.
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
Ok I just ran the update. Let me try a reboot
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
The update fixed the constant sync icon for me and also the 100% awake time.
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapMaker:
Ever since the update, I am getting the constant sync icon... PITA. Sometimes gmail gets stuck, other times it's HTC Sense. Unchecking all sense sync options and rebooting now.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ram1500:
Hi, is anyone else getting random reboots on their tablets? im running 3.1 its rebooting like crazy yesterday it did it 3 times one after the other and it just did one right. is their a fix for this? ill greatly appreciate it if you help

~Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Baconstrip:
the only fix I've discovered is that I have to turn off the wifi before idling for awhile. Mine only reboots after it goes into sleep, never when I'm actually using it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ram1500:
yea it only does in idle, so theirs no actual fix to this?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DyDx:
I haven't experienced this, but I also put my tablet in Airplane Mode when I know I won't be using it for several hours or a day.

I do this to conserve battery life, but I suppose it's also meant that I don't see this problem -- assuming it's a widespread problem to begin with.

For now -- until we get another software update that might fix the issue -- try getting into the habit of switching to Airplane Mode when you're done using it. It only takes two taps.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jadesse:
Mine did it to me today for the first time while the screen was turned off. It never happened until today or at least I have never witnessed it. I have had mine for just over a week. I also put mine into airplane mode & have been all a long when putting it to sleep. I read in another thread that under wireless setting you can set so wifi goes off with screen off under wifi disconnect policy. I don't think that wifi does turn off though.

The only other thing that has changed is that I installed the Riptide GP Demo last night. I didn't play it until today. Shortly after I was finished I put my Transformer to sleep (screen off). After a few minutes I heard pop & just a single pop. I turned my transformer back on then off. I heard this poping noise a couple of more times. I finally restart my transformer & problem went away. It was a short time later when my transformer rebooted its self.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mllk:
It does this only when docked to the keyboard. I have stopped using my keyboard for now until there's a fix for this. Lost a long document last week because of the random reboot.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Carl LaFong:
I'm on 3.1 and haven't experienced this. Strange.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
Does this once or so every day when sleeping, doesn't matter if docked or not.

If you have an sdcard plugged in the dock, you can try to remove it.

It worked for me.

What did you change? Did you add an app, take an app update, change a setting, insert a new SD card?

[Nexus S General] srt4mn:
Hi Everyone,

I recently switched from Verizon to T-Mobile last weekend and picked up the new Sensation 4G with my plan. I like the phone, but then recently realized the Nexus S was on T-Mobile (some reason I thought it was AT&T). I'm not sure if I want to keep the Sensation now and swap to the NS within the 14-day period you get when signing a new contract to return the phone. The Sensation has a lot of functionality and customization, but the phone feels kinda laggy and buggy almost.

Now in my area, I don't have 3G/4G for T-Mobile so the 4G speeds aren't really felt with my Sensation so that isn't a concern for me dropping to a 3G-only phone. I have played with the NS at a Best Buy in the past and the demo unit was pretty beat on, rough shape so I might need to check it out again at another store to see if I like it. I have had the Hero, Incredible and now the Sensation so I am a pretty big fan of Sense UI so I am not sure if I would miss it a lot going back to vanilla android.

What is everyone's opinion on switching? Would you keep the Sensation and hope that performance will be better with updates (or eventually rooting/flashing ROMs) or switch to the NS while I can? Trying to get a lot of opinions on this and making my final decision this weekend.
[Nexus S General] Live2Follow:
If it makes you feel any better, I went from a G2x to a Nexus S. Sick of the Carrier/Manufacturer games.
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
My first phone was the G1, so I am a big fan of stock Android. I can't really get into the Sense UI on my work Thunderbolt. I find the stock Gingerbread UI to be the best UI Android phones have ever had. I've also used Samsung's TouchWiz and liked that more than Sense.

I contemplated switching to the HTC Sensation 4G because I am due for an upgrade (my contract has expired from my G1), but after working with the HTC Thunderbolt, I don't really like the quality vs my Samsung Nexus S. People kept saying the quality of the Nexus S is bad (mostly because it has a plastic back cover, big whoop), but I find it to be a solid phone and it is very fast. I have had zero problems with slowness or sluggish use. I am going to find it difficult to switch to another phone for a while I think.
[Nexus S General] smjfosho:
I too went from a g2x to the nexus an and I'm not looking back. The nexus a is a fantastic device.and dual core is just hype, no real difference unless your a hardcore gamer.
[Nexus S General] bakron1:
I also tried the G2X and went back to my Nexus S and I am not looking back. The NS built quality is solid and the phone is fast. Don't let the folks who say there is to much plastic fool ya, I have dropped mine twice and it keeps right on running.

The super amoled screen blows the G2X and Sensation screens away and I also have mine rooted running the CM7 nightly with the netarchy custom kernel which is proving to be a great combination and very stable.

At the moment there is not much development in the forum of custom ROM's for the G2X or HTC Sensation which is a sticking point for me. Just my opinion.
[Nexus S General] abudabu:
I would stick with the HTC sensation. Bigger screen, better camera. Especially if Sense is something you're used to, rather than the vanilla android. Only thing that the HTC Sensation will be lacking in, is updates. The Nexus will get updated 1st. But if you're the kind of guy who likes to mod and install ROM's, that is a moot point.

Since the Sensation is also a newer phone, it'll hold it's moneytary value better than the Nexus S.
[Nexus S General] VisedMonk:
I'd go w/ the Nexus S. I too had the G2x, but I've had the NS for about 2 months now and haven't looked back. The screen is beautiful (especially after you root and get a kernel with the 2.3.2 color drivers or voodoo color), and I really like the form factor of the phone, too (slight curve, completely black on the front, etc.). Sure, it's all plastic but that doesn't bug me as it does others.

FWIW, I had an evo on Sprint and didn't particularly like the phone. I had 3 - 1 new and 2 refurbs - because they all developed dust under the top left corner of the screen. Also, it was heavy and too big (I think a 4 inch screen is the sweet spot). The Sensation can't fix that it is big and heavy, although it does have a higher number of pixels than the NS. I also think the back of the phone is fugly.

Sure, the NS isn't the most powerful phone out there and there are things we all wish it had (hello, an sdcard slot?) but its a great phone. And pure Google, so you'll be getting the updates first. For God's sake the N1 has Gingerbread on it and manufacturers (I'm looking at you, LG, and your G2x) still release phones with FroYo.
[Nexus S General] srt4mn:
Thanks for all the input, the main reason I like Sense is the widgets that HTC makes. They are very handy and even though most of the widgets are duplicated by apps in the market, they just seem to "flow" better on Sense.

I have had 7 android phones so far so I have had a taste of everything almost (Vanilla - G1, MyTouch, Moto Droid) (Sense - Hero, Incredible, Sensation) (Motoblur - Droid X, bleh). I messed around with the Nexus S at the local Best Buy and the form factor was surprisingly good IMO. Had a good feel and decent-sized screen and was very responsive with vanilla Gingerbread.

I think it will depend on how much of a hassle it would be to swap out the phones on the plan. I got the Sensation at the T-Mobile store and the Best Buy rep said I would have to return the phone to that location and they would maybe have to notate on the account that I returned it and then go to the Best Buy store to get the NS. Will have to talk to T-Mobile this weekend as the location I went to was out of town.

Is anybody having GPS issues or anything like that with their NS? I have heard of many Galaxy S phones having lock-on issues and don't know if that transferred over to the NS as well.
[Nexus S General] jark99:
Nope not for me at least. Most people say it locks faster ii agree
