And it has a Japanese launch...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
what ive heard about the variants:

(courtesy football)

DLX#UL = unknown region/carrier

DLX#U-C14 = china

DLX#U_B1 = australia

DLX#WL-R1 = USA/verizon

DLX#WLJ-D9 = japan (most likely thats what the announced "j" phone is)

DLX#WR-C14 = another china variant
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gtdtm:
But what does it mean? Is the Verizon phone better because R is higher than D, or worse because 1 is lower than 9?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] werdna87:
I think its just radios... does anyone know where the SD card slot is in this? The vzw one could have one and I just can't find it...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
id guess it doesnt have one, but try taking out the battery and checking if there is a slot (like on tbolt)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] werdna87:
The battery is not removable...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
lol, well that doesnt help then :p
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gtdtm:
On the Japanese version it looked like there was a little slot by the power button. I assume it was for a sim or microsd. Is the back cover even removable on your version?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] werdna87:
AFAIK its a sim slot... I'll look for y'all later though :D

Does HTC suddenly think they are Apple?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
According to the links, it's actually waterproof, so no removable battery.

Yeah, I hate when my dix just stays up and won't turn off.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
HTC seems to be enjoying having nonremovable batteries. Following Motorola's footsteps. *facepalm

They don't want out dix to get bigger. They want it to be small! XD

Does anyone else have days where your data speed is stupidly slow? I tested it 3 times today in a full service area and averaged 0.03Mbps down and 0.25Mbps up. Its really annoying when Pandora buffers every 10 seconds.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
Nope. Although I did get moments where 3G wouldn't respond on my old dinc2 at random moments. :(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Not tested it with Pandora but my 3G is as usual... mediocre as ever. Actually, ever since I recently moved closer to my university, I think I am getting better speeds... Around 2.5 Mbps down and 1 Mbps up.

Just checked now and got 2.41 Mbps down and 0.88 Mbps up... Thanks Big Red. I am using 3G only nowadays due to some WiFi related battery drain issues on CM10, but I like it otherwise... So, not changing ROMs anytime soon... :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
Hey guys, somewhat unrelated, but I just replaced my power button. It was a simple process. Ordered it from RepairsUniverse.com Fast shipping (@ 3 days). Total was about $15 shipped. I still don't have much sensitivity as far as how the button feels, but it is way more responsive. If anyone needs any info on procedure, etc., send me a pm or something.

Oh, BTW, DIX.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
Good to know, I'm starting to get the feeling mine is on its way out, I have to press twice once in a while to get the screen on.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Not to be a douche, but $15 is a clear rip off for a tiny piece of plastic. And I know as I opened my phone at least a dozen times while repairing the screen and front bezel. Didn't you find it cheaper on eBay or something? I've never looked for that part though...

Anyway, at least happy that you got it repaired.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
You can be a douche, it's okay! ;)

No, I agree, but it was one of those sketchy situations where I was worried about not having a power button & wanted one asap.

Besides, you can get one cheaper on ebay,

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Volume-side...976048?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1c2b8143b0

but I didn't want to have to wait for 2 weeks for the shipment from hong kong.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Card83:
Well, the charging port on my Inc2 is on its way out (for the second time on this phone, 3rd time overall). Rather than fixing it again, I sunk $250 into getting a GNex and box o' accessories from the XDA Marketplace. In a way, I'm kind of sad that my phone couldn't survive until "tomorrow", but I'll probably order the parts to fix the charging port at some point and relegate the Inc2 to WiFi home phone duties once again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
How's the condition of the gnex? :)

Tris, you need to change the thread name to "I don't even know anymore..."

Sent from viperDIX B4
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
I just might have to haha :thumbup:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Why do u want it to last forever? Just nurse it home till end of contract and jump onto the next nearest nexus (either a few months after contract up, if there is a nexus to come after whenever ur contract expires OR the "just" released nexus at that point of time...)

The above is my strategy. I think it is a winning strategy. OH! And ALWAYS wait a month or at least a week to see if that phone's forums pick up on any glaring issue that reviewers at elitist sites (engadget, I despise you) miss out in their never ending spec comparison that only can be observed by living with the device (in reference to this, note that I had a Droid X2 that reviewers praised like hell, and the Transformer prime has issues too, but very manageable for me)...

That's my strategy, simply put.

Don't even know anymore sounds way more definitive than tomorrow, which is always tomorrow... So I say NO CHANGE.

Well, two years practically is "forever" in the phone world. LOL

Same here. I feel like less of a man when I leave my dix on the table. I always have my dix in my pocket and I fiddle with it in movies, class, restaurants, when I'm chilling with my bros, we are often interested in each other's dix... I saw a couple other fellows with a Dix and I felt oddly attracted to them, as if they were brethren... Ahh, I long to get a bigger dix. 4 inches isn't cutting it no more. Need 5. Ultimately I wanna upgrade to 10 inches. I have a Transformer to do that, but that ain't a dix.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Card83:
Hopefully I'll know tomorrow, as that's when it should be getting here. Everything looks good in the pictures and the guy has a bunch of positive rep on the Marketplace, so I'm not too worried.

With that said, I'll probably stick around the Inc2 forums for awhile. You folks are way too entertaining for me to leave.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
I know how you feel. Even after I got my GS3, I still stick around these forums. :)

And hopefully, you get that GNex. :)

Uh uh! Triscuit what did you just say!!! You cannot accept Dix from someone under 18. NO. Even if he has been using and sharing his Dix with friends for ages, even if he's been flashing his dix in front of strangers, with a cable attached or remotely, NO MEANS NO! You'll go to jail for Pete sake...

I still have unlimited with my GS3. So I'm pretty content. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Card83:
Did you manage that without paying retail? Last time I went to Verizon, they told me if I wanted to keep unlimited data, I would have to buy the phone for full retail price. Doing the upgrade would result in losing it, and I hate the idea of spending $600+ on a cell phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] GeoFX:
You can usually buy a new phone on ebay for at least 20% off if you're willing to risk it (some sellers even offer a 14-day return policy). That's what I'm planning on doing once I decide to upgrade the Dinc2 in order to keep my unlimited plan.

We all have those... And speaking of balls, VZW has two gigantic and hairy ones to state a tweet like this:

"There is no information on the tasty treat! Once or if the update is available, it will be pushed to your device. ^LA "

THE AUDACITY of saying "if" its available. After you specifically stated a LONG time ago that you will update it. I think people think it is fashionable to effing break promises... And it seems ingrained in the culture now, what with the incessant lying from politicians to all the effing major companies. Thanks for screwing us VZW, you only have the balls to do this because you know you have the biggest network and you did that by sheer force and trampling the small guy. NOT fairly. I just hate how so many companies, Apple, VZW etc. are milking their customers for more money. They are all HOPPED UP on greed and money. Ugh.

Ron Paul should've been President, but alas, you have to pick between the shiniest of two turds..

Short answer: Yes. As HTC has nothing to gain from it (that's what they say, we beg to differ as it adds brand loyalty) but these companies only do something they "legally" MUST have to ... there is no ethics left in Business... And I was thought professional ethics in undergrad... sad reality.
