The incredible 2 is both taller, wider, and thicker than the incredible. Not by a lot, but maybe enough that a dock wouldn't work. The microUSB is on the same side, so it is possible that if you have an extra tenth of an inch in your dock that it might work.

*Note: I never had a Dinc, the Dinc2 is my first HTC phone. I am going on comparing pictures and dimensions given by HTC.*
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ominusballoonman:
It's important to note that the usb port on the incredible 2 is flipped compared to the port on the original incredible. Have both in front of me and I just discovered this.

So a cradle/dock for the incredible 2 WILL NOT work with the original.

Are you restoring the file attributes too?

Make sure to use the proper attribs once you copy back the apk.

when will netflix officially come out on the market?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] dirtyfingers:
It is already "officially" out on the market, but it does not support the Thunderbolt yet. That is the reason you can't find it if you do a search.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Paulb787:
kyrumo71 Thank u!! I have looked everywhere for that..
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Mustang302LX:
I'll never understand that either. It should of been one of the first few devices supported. But I guess that hideous Casio phone is more important to them!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] joshnichols189:
Its because when the app detects 4g it realizes it can stream a higher quality and chews through data..

And if you haven't seen.. a lot of us that got ahold of the app unofficially tear through 10+gbs a month ..
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mbrown3460:
why is it on the revolution?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] joshnichols189:
Good question. Probably because no one would buy it otherwise.. it was one of the main selling points of the phone.

Otherwise, well played sir.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Robertus:
Because LG has been working with Netflix since 2010 to make this happen. Why? Because that's part of their strategy to help sell their phone.

Thanks, Robrecht
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mbrown3460:
Its still a 4G device.

im dying to flash to gb just for this app... i can run away and hide at lunch and watch a good show :)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Bwangster12:
This whole thing has the smell of an "exclusivity" type of thing to get the LG Revolution off to a good start in terms of sales. Correct me if I am wrong, but the LG is the only 4G phone that has Netflix right now. I assume they did this so it can get a decent jump on sales to compete with the Charge and Thunderbolt... and then when the aura of it wears off, they will make it available for other 4G phones.

If I guessed, I'd say this is why its on lower end phones and older models... but not the Thunderbolt or Charge.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mbrown3460:
Just notice that the netflix app is in the market place on the thunderbolt and it shows up under supported device...I tried to run it on my stock thunderbolt and I got a drm error...I just hope this means gingerbread is almost here

Anyone else notice that when installing Netflix from the Market place on the Android phone, it doesn't work. But if you get on your computer and push Netflix to the phone, it installs and works. I checked the build and it's 1.3. Not sure what the version was when I downloaded it straight to my phone from the Market place this morning. Can anyone else confirm or deny?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] madisonjar:
1.3 is now live on the marketplace and works...they had 1.2.2 up there with 1.3 release notes...it is now 1.3 though through and through.

This tool installs su and superuser.apk for stock HC 3.1 and HC 3.01

As the old root method does not work anymore I created this new tool.

How to root

1. Goto Settings->Applications and enable "Unkown sources"

2. Download the attached APK file

3. Copy the file to your Iconia

4. Install the APK & start the tool

5. Click "root"

6. Enjoy :-)

How to unroot

1. Start the tool & click "unroot"

NOTE

- By clicking root, you agree that you do this at your own risk. The tool will uninstall any previous installed superuser.apk.

Thanks

@ChainsDD for superuser.apk and su

@Acer for this buggy tool :)

Changelog

1.3.0:

- Also remove any "su" folder from /system/bin and /system/xbin .

1.2.0:

- Remove su from /system/bin and /system/xbin before rooting. This should fix the issues when someone installed the 3.1 OTA without unrooting the device before.

1.1.0:

- Add support for HC3.0

1.0.0:

- Initial version

!!! Use at your own risk !!!

I just bought my Acer tab yesterday an would like to join the dark side an root. I know I just need to install an run version 1.3, but what about CWM? I notice the sticky on it an explained how to do it. Can you not just install rom manager an flash clockwork that way?
[Acer Iconia A500] reejmond:
No to install the rom manager you need root access :)

Just install first iconiaroot 1.3.. it is very simple and takes only seconds...

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=648570&d=1310086702

When you install the CWM rom manager you als need to download ROM'S
[Acer Iconia A500] tu3218:
okay cool!, so after I get root can I just download rom manager and flash CWM that way? I ask because that's how I've done it on my phones but wasn't sure if it was different in this case. Then I can begin flashing update.zips and roms?
[Acer Iconia A500] reejmond:
Yes, i take most of the time FULL rom's.. no update ROM's
[Acer Iconia A500] briancarrie05:
OK so I rooted using iconiaroot 1.3 and then proceeded to flash cwm using Acer recovery installer. My question is, if I want to get rid of cwm and unroot, how do I go about doing so? When I try to unroot using iconia root, it says "something went wrong. You are still rooted?" And to tell the truth, I'm not sure how to go about removing cwm. Anyone can help?
[Acer Iconia A500] reejmond:
1) unroot option in the program 'icioniaroot 1.3'

2) return to stock kernel in the program 'Acer recovery installer'

3) uninstall CWM.
[Acer Iconia A500] briancarrie05:
Either I am misunderstanding or you just repeated everything I said I would like to do. Iconiaroot 1.3 says "something went wrong" whenever I am trying to unroot. As far as recovery, the stock one in Acer recovery installer is the one I want to use? I am running 4.010.13_com_gen2. It didnt match what was in Acer recovery installer which is 1.141.01_com_Gen1 so I wasn't sure if I should flash it. And finally, my question is HOW to uninstall cwm. Sorry for the newb questions
[Acer Iconia A500] reejmond:
Maybe you are already unrooted. With the program rootchecker (joeykrim) from the market you can check it.

Uninstalling cwm is possible from the market then my apps and uninstall. Or in the settings menu then application and manage application.

But don't worry about root. You can flash with or without root no problem...stock or no stock.

I always flash full rom's and flash with stock kernel.. no cwm..
[Acer Iconia A500] internetpilot:
I believe you need to revert back to the stock A500 recovery (via Acer Recovery Installer) which will "uninstall" CWM, and then use IconiaRoot to unroot -- in that order.
[Acer Iconia A500] nexgenasian:

Yey my A500 is now rooted! Thank you!

So those with 3.1 (acer_A500_4.010.13_com_gen2 USA A500 latest stock rom) use this app?

-market.android.com/details?id=com.interphaze.AcerRecoveryInstaller

Then OC it yet?

-addictivetips.com/mobile/overclock-acer-iconia-a500-honeycomb-tablet-to-1-6ghz-on-android-3-1/

I'm a little reluctant as I scrounged up every penny I had to buy this thing:D. I don't wanna brick it.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
NO!

Do not, under ANY circumstances, use the Rom Manager app from the market. It is NOT compatible with the A500 and you WILL BRICK YOUR TABLET!

If you want to flash custom ROMs, you must do it from within our custom CWM.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Acer Recovery Installer is the right way to install our custom CWM. Once that is installed, you then install any custom ROMs from within CWM.
[Acer Iconia A500] c2323j:
Nube,

which apk file do I download and do I download it to a thumb drive then transfer to iconia? If I download directly to iconia, do I download to any particular palce.

In addition, I've seen other confusing tutorials on rooting, does this apk do all the work for you? Or am I missing some the instructions to rooting my Acer Iconia A500 16gb running HC 3.1 update...

Thanks,
[Acer Iconia A500] nexgenasian:
It's amazingly as easy as downloading and running iconiaroot 1.3 and let it root. Then d/l and get Acer Recover Installer from the market and let it install clockworkmod for acer.

Then you can choose which custom rom you want to run, or keep stock.

I personally did the above steps RIGHT after I had brought my Iconia home.

I was rooted and had the ability to add my own roms in 20 mins.

Stuck Extracting...

First off, thank you so much for your hard work on developing this!!

I have quite a strange issue now though:

After installing 1.3, I was able to root with no problem. I got my WPA_SUPPLICANT all fixed up and everything. But then I started having an issue with Rhapsody. So I decided to come in and try to "unroot" to see if that would make a difference in how Rhapsody was working.

Well it tried to unroot but said it failed and gave the "you are still rooted???" message. However, when I went to Root Explorer, I couldn't turn on R/W access so I figured IconiaRoot had done SOMETHING during the unroot process, even if it wasn't the full thing.

So I tried to go back and select "root" again. Now all it does is:

Starting with root process...

Extracting...

and it hangs permanently at that point. I've searched the thread on the term "Extracting" but found no other results. If I missed something I apologize but can someone please provide a little guidance?

Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] sc2k:
Have you already tried to uninstall iconiaroot?

When it says "extracting" it just copies su and superuser.apk from the apk file to the application folder. If it hangs, it should be sufficient to remove the application folder by uninstalling iconiaroot.
[Acer Iconia A500] sc2k:
Is the "Superuser" application still installed on your device? Have you already tried to root your device again?
[Acer Iconia A500] jonnyp4l:
sc2k, thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

I had tried uninstalling iconiaroot and reinstalling it with no success until I read your message and realized that more than just uninstalling might be necessary. I went back and uninstalled, REBOOTED and then reinstalled your marvelous little app and it worked like a charm.

Thanks again for the quick advice and especially for the hard work. It is greatly appreciated!!

Clarification needed

Thanks Sc2k for the steps to root HC3.1. I am a noob and need some clarification:

1) Do you have to enable usb debugging in addition to enable "unknown sources"?

2) I am confused about transferring .apk file. Do you have to unzip the attached 1.3 file first and then copy the .apk file to microsd card? Is the next step to insert microsd card into the tablet and then transfer the .apk file into the tablet follwed by opening it? Why not directly transfer it to the tablet from pc and open it?

3) Do you need to back up before beginning the whole process? If so, where to back it up? Microsd card?

Thanks in advance for help to sc2k or whoever takes a stab at it.
[Acer Iconia A500] fermunky:
Hi everyone,

Reporting I had a stock tablet that got the 3.1 OTA update. I ran 1.3 with no issues, and then used the Acer Recovery Installer to get clockwork recovery, also without issue. Bang up job guys. Why is this not stickied???

The attached 1.3 apk file is not in a archive format. So, Yes: both USB debugging and unknown sources must be enabled. I did not have to backup anything, but then again I really didn't have much on it. So just download the apk to your tablet, doesn't matter where it gets saved. The run the apk to install the app. Then run the app to gain root.
[Acer Iconia A500] 55Pegasus:
Now....That was easy. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] 09busa:
Ok I have a problem. I followed the directions and installed 1.3. All went fine but now when I go to clockwork to install a custom rom it does not show the zip files when I go to install a zip from the sdcard. Help!!!!!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] UnicornKaz:
There are more then one options to get to the zip.

/apply update from SDcard

/install zip from SDcard -->>

choose zip from SDcard

( this let you select a specific folder of choice where your file mght be at )
[Acer Iconia A500] 09busa:
ok I moved them to another dir that was showing up for clockwork and the zips just do not show up????? I have an evo 4g and never had this problem. Any idea on how to get clockwork to see the zips or another way to install custom roms on this acer????
[Acer Iconia A500] UnicornKaz:
I've never have any problem with choosing *.zip when using the "choose zip from SDcard" option.... in fact... it can also be any named and not have to be "update.zip"

maybe you should reformat your card and put the file on it a second time ? :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] 09busa:
Hey thanks buddy. The copy the data to my computer and format the sdcard and copy the stuff back to the sdcard did the trick. Clockwork now sees the zips.
