I 100% agree about the power button, it sucks!, that's why the vol button to wake is a huge savior. I miss inc1 power button
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dpoindexter:
I have only dropped one call, and that may have been my boss's droid pro, as she is always dropping calls on that. But getting a web site to load or even getting into the market is painfully slow and often takes at least 2 retries to get it to load. Currently my time without signal is 10% and that is unacceptable IMO. The only time I get full bars is when I can literally see a cell phone tower. My office is literally 2 blocks from a tower (I can't see it though) and my signal is -92 dBM (an no bars), but in all fairness I couldn't even make outgoing calls on my Droid 2 in my office or it would drop the call, I haven't had that problem yet with the inc2. I do have to laugh when I pick up my phone and it has full bars, and I unlock it and it goes immediately to zero bars. I mean how hard would it be for them to fix the back to put in a better (or more of an) antenna?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 06stang:
We had a thread on build quality when the inc2 forum first started. This phone is terrible as far as hardware build. I went through 6 in the first month. Rattles when vibrating, power button being flush with the body of the phone, vibrate not strong enough, speakers sounding blown, rear speaker not working at all, and of course the bottom lit up buttons having a white circle of light around them. I even had one with a deep scratch in the gorilla glass right out of the box. This phone is awful but i still love it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dpoindexter:
I can already tell I'm going to have a love-hate relationship with this phone and I do recall reading the thread regarding build quality before jumping into this phone. After Verizon pushed the gingerbread update to my droid 2 I couldn't take that phone any more (I did have CM7 running on it prior, but had a lot of issues with dropped calls). But regardless the inc2 is still far better (so far) than the last HTC phone I had which made me swear I'd never own another HTC phone again (HTC Ozone). I think I can stick this phone out for 12 months.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
and here I thought I was the only one who got 3 refurbs and sent them back lol. at least I know I'm not crazy. the soft key buttons the first one was like 3 times as hard as it should be, asked for a new refurb, this one was too damn soft, and then the next one speaker was crapped out, so i said **** it and kept my original, and atone point I had like 4 extra back doors. lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Man, I feel like I was a lucky one. The only issues I ever had were software issues, and that was pre-root for me. lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 06stang:
I even forgot to mention NONE of those replacement phones I got on the first month were refurbished CLNR phones. They were all brand new sealed in the box. I even got a call from HTC. Said they're checking all units shipped to my region for quality. Sounded like customer service jargon.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nazo0:
better screen

hdmi

fix the power button so it stops getting so low (i had 3 replacements already)

first one was fine untill later on, replacement came which was WORSE than my original one, called vzw moron rep said it's not a manufactor defect so i have to pay for it lol i told them it's the one they sent me in the box i havent even registered it yet..sent me another one after that, even this one is messing up but i dont care anymore i'm on s-off so im keepin my mouth shut :X

fix the volume buttons so it doesnt feel like the phone is made in china

and fix the UI buttons so they're all equally lit, no matter what angle you look at it from

---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------

including the crappy ass signal? im seriously thinkin of an iphone now bcuz this service sucks w/ this phone, all 3 replacements i had haven't been any better than the previous replacement. im consistently @ -98 dbm 0 asu, even passing -100 at times. what can i do about the signal????
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Haha, I eventually just stopped paying attention to the bars at the dbm since they too always hovered around 1 bar or 90-100 dbm, but there wouldn't be loss of service or anything, still able to make calls. So honestly, I am not sure what is up with it.

But then I use text/internet a lot more than voice, so maybe I am not experiencing all the faults of the signal issues.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nazo0:
Lol, unfortunately for me, I've experienced the dropped calls more than a couple times. Had a phone interview yesterday and this silly bastard dropped my call, that wasn't such a very good impression. Had a few dropped calls a couple other times but it's really annoying considering I put my phone next to my girl's iphone4 (vzw) and she had full service and I was down to one bar.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
Once and for all, for all the people who keep stating bars mean nothing, even the dbm may not matter, etc. THIS PHONES SIGNAL SUCKS. Put it side by side with another as I have done, there are several spots where I live where my phone will not work, at all, yet, with my brother or his son, in the vehicle with me, and their x and x2, they can make a call, and have good clarity, no breaking up, mine won't even attempt to make a call cause it said it had no signal, my wires inc 2, exactly the same, and this is the case no matter the radio, I have even mocked up an antenna in the back case made from copper wire, signal still sucked, royaly! Not putting down the phone though, other than that I love it. Some people just don't seem to be able to see things for what they are...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
I am not sure what is going on. I know many people have reported signal issue, but I don't seem to be having any problems. My signal varies anywhere between -85 and -100 dbm, but I have not had any dropped/missed calls or poor reception. Also my data speeds are great. I am not sure what is going on, maybe it's a location thing.

A real keyboard.

Call me old fashioned but when I need to edit an office document or a spreadsheet for a client whileaway from my laptop, I reach for my (no service) L (low) G (grade) Fathom, switch on the wifi and type like my job depends on it.

When a work oder means $795.00 or not, I need a keyboard that I don't have to edit three or more times to get it right.

Yes, please could the DInc 3 have a real keyboard for those of us that actually work for a living...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Lino.:
I can't believe that the FM radio on this phone is Analog only in a world where everything is digital, this is BS

I want digital FM

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

Why did you get this phone when there are others with keyboards.

I got this phone because I did not want a keyboard.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cac2us:
HTC Keyboard

I tried to find the Merge/Lexikon but I would have had to pay full retail and take my chances with the second hand sites.

Have you held the Moto 3? The PPC 6700 (Apache) I had has a better slide then that. Besides Moto should stick to Walkie Talkies, thier hardware suks.

L(Lamo) G(Gonads) seems to abandon anything that’s worth a damn.

SammyScum is a joke and there is little to none for dev.

I think my best option is a Bluetooth keyboard. Since I keep my portable office in the van most of the time, I could just pull over, edit/compose, send and drive.

That's basically what I do with my abandoned Fathom. Wi-Fi is great.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] loonatik78:
There is no such thing as terrestrial digital FM radio. It's a digital tuner. I have an analog tuner in a stereo I have... and it's HUGE. I cold probably put 8 or 10 dInc2's inside the physical tuner itself. It's a work of art, really.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Just came up with another thing I wish the Inc2 had - a key combination to hard-reboot the phone. On my old Fascinate, I could hold Power + Volume Down for 6 or 8 seconds and it would force the phone to reboot.

On the Inc, if you get stuck in a boot or FC loop, you have to take the phone out of any case you might have it in, remove the back cover, pull the battery, put it all together again and then power back on. What a royal PITA.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:

I have the Dinc2 and my camera takes better pics than my wife's iphone4 that she just got. Now her front facing camera is way better.

My biggest complaints are the front facing camera and the reception. other than that, I love this phone. I had the droid X before this one and I wouldn't wish that phone on my worst enemy.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sixteen2nd:
I'm starting to wish my Dinc2 had a hardware camera button.

I also wish the video camera mic was on the back of the phone near the lens (or even the loud speaker). I find myself covering the mic with my fingers when I record in portrait mode and my videos have no sound or VERY muffled sound.

Other than that, I still love this phone (with SkyRaider Zeus)!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joefrog1996:
Just a few things

4G LTE would have been nice and dual core would have been a nice touch. It's not like we didn't have the tech at the time because htc had already had a dual core phone and a LTE phone released. I would have liked a 1700 battery, not sooo much bloat ware, and I would like an update to htc sense 3.5. Dont act like a single core prossor can't handle it because the HTC Ryhm has it and lower specs WTF? A qHD screen would have been nice and super amoled plus screen would be nice (uses less power). Well, I guess there's always the Dinc3 right?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
Are you not rooted? I dont care what HTC updates us too...I stay root.

You realized qhd is not all its cracked up to be, and samoled suffers from screen burn (yeah no one remembers to include that part :-))
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
Remove bloat from stock firmware, a dual-core processor, and better signal reception.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
I believe a majority of people will never use the full capabilities of a dual-core phone anyways. I have no problem with my phone being single core and overclocked. I think by next spring verzion and OEM's will have all the bugs out of the 4glte chip. I still don't know why just the Rezound and thunderbolt are the only chips that can talk and go online simultaneously.

the sms theme is not "missing", its how the way its is in cm messaging app. no u cannot use messaging app from samsungs rom, it require its own framework, wont work with cm. use other third party messaging app like gosms, handcent or chompsms. those third party messaging app had theme customization till the very font color, not just bubble color like default samsungs messaging.

btw i cant understand why u guys had that many problem with gapps. for me its working flawlessly.

As is usually the case 90% of the time, it was operator error. Since I've used it before and knew it was a good ROM, I decided to work backwards since the flash. I defrosted all that I froze with TiBu and it started working again.

Oddly enough, I re-froze all the same stuff and it still works. When I froze one of the music/sound related appz, it must've thrown a glitch into the works.

Bottom line all is good. Figured I'd toss this up in case anyone experiences similar issues.

hi

i discovered a repeatable way to crash my phone.

i am curious if that is just my phone, or every xt720 behave the same.

the step to crash the phone (the phone will just harmless reboot) are:

1. obtain root access to the phone shell (suggested way is via "adb shell" )

2. mount the debugfs:

busybox mount -t debugfs debugfs /d

as d is symbolic link to /sys/kernel/debug the debug directory will be populated

3. (optional) make the screen off (e.g. tick on the power button, to make the phone sleep)

4. cat a dsi file:

cat /sys/kernel/debug/omapdss/dsi

the phone (at least my one) will reboot.

interesting is that, if the screen is on when issuing the cat command, the phone will survive:)

i am very curious if that is just my phone, so please, if and when you can, please test and give feedback.

Screen off, and issuing the command: phone rebooted
