It still confusing me as well...that is verbatim the convo though.

My only comment for the rest of the day is:

I am on my way to a Casino with my lady and friends to get drunk and gamble :)

I would advise everyone to step away from their keyboards or cells, take sometime to hug ur spouse, eat with family, drink with your friends, and be thankfull that we are worryijg about a cell phone and not about being homeless, starving, or in a war torn 3rd world country.

I love the community, and am sorry for being premature with news, premature is a problem, ask my girl ;) jk

Lots of Love!

Cheers!

Wow, it's time for a lot of you to grow up and start acting like adults. This thread needs to be closed so the idiocy can stop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] m1k3-:
I'm not going to talk smack on all the alldroid guys, but Jake Day is definitely questionable.

He just made a new blog post that starts off with....

"There has been a lot of speculation over the last week or so since I first posted that Overclocked Kernels were being built. This led people to believe that I had rooted the Incredible, which I had not."

The first line is a lie (or at least some serious revisionist history).

From his blog post that started this whole mess:

"That's right, consider this the first notice that the HTC Incredible has been overclocked. Incredible boots and runs smooth at 1.3 ghz (as compared to the 1 ghz stock). I've also played with a 1.5 ghz kernel that I'm working on, but need to clean up a few things first."

There's a big difference between telling someone that you're BUILDING kernels and that you're ACTUALLY RUNNING THEM.

I'm so done following this joker.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bilbobrian:
I'm with you wolf....this is freaking ridiculous.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hilaireg:
Folks, here is what I find amazing ...

We're having to close threads like this on a daily basis; would it not be better use of everyone's time to pool your energy/efforts together and root the device and stop these types of threads?

Furthermore; if you recognize something as being false, what purpose does it serve to jump on the debunking band-wagon?

Report the thread and move on.

How much is this program?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] polo2883:
I have read horror stories about their insurance. It seems like they want to always ship our phone off for repair and that could take days to weeks. With Verizon they just ship you another phone and you ship the old one back
[Droid Incredible Android Development] b16a2smith:
i dont know, ive heard they just swap right there, and it is 10$ a month. 3$ more than asurion.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] acidbath5546:

i will be picking it up on the 29th. Definitely not an experienced developer but will gladly test anything you guys throw into the forums
[Droid Incredible Android Development] srleadjb:
Forgive my ignorance but will this root enable the use of tethering via barnacle app as I have on the Motorola droid now? This is all I'm waiting for before switching to this phone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] acidbath5546:
Check first post for helpful links to your question :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] srleadjb:
Sorry, I wasn't very clear. I know root will give access to tethering but in this case he mentions that he has root but that HTC presents additional challenges. My question is then, are we good to go at this point for general root access and tethering (assuming it's the same on the Incredible) or are we still having to wait for this additional work? Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] acidbath5546:
Not a problem...

In laymans terms...he has achieved Root acsess and still has to be able to jump a few much easier hurdles to make it work...

In essence the hard part is done...

And yestethering will be an option when Root is completely achieved...

And all othe apps and stles depend on the ROM you put on a Rooted phone...

Lots of Devs, myself included will have different ROMs for you to choose from when the time comes...

i will get a simple Tutorial/FAQ up here as well...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mycomputerisjunk:
I saw a couple video demos and they showed a built-in tether feature. Is it non-functional?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] acidbath5546:
LMAO...Be gentle irascible ;)

But yes, if you read the thread and check out the links and what Root will do stuff....you will find your answer...

Cheers!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mycomputerisjunk:
Ok smart a$$, why don't you read my post completely to start with? I said the built-in tether option. I'll root and add wifi tether when the time comes.

I want to know if the built-in, out of the box, stock ROM, straight from Verizon, tether option works..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gimpeh:
Paul has gotten all of the partitions write'able except the recovery now. This is progressing fast!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kcasner:
Hmm, so you saw videos of the unreleased phone that had the feature, and the post RIGHT before yours said it will work once root is achieved...

What does that tell the stray animal...?

Yes, the people that walk you, read your post and understood that you were referring to a built in feature on a phone that currently only has one rom... the stock one genius.

Now go home, and stop cluttering the dev root thread with your general questions. There's a search feature and a correct forum for that, stray animal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kcasner:
wow; that's good news. Hopefully his efforts on the legend/desire work on the incredible!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] syrguy1969:
If it helps anyone, this was just posted over @ Android Central Forums:

P.S. Rooting guide officially up for the Desire...I bet we see the Incredible's by the end of the week!!!:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] kcasner:
I sure hope so. I'm getting mine around the 15th, can't wait.

edit:

Read the tutorial; no recovery image support yet, scary. Also with that method, we'll more than likley need the image he uses to be one for the incredible. I would not try this on the incredible just yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Honestly77:
I'm sure paul will help in the rooting effotts for the incredible BUT him not having access to CDMA networks means he doesn't have access to one. Sooo...the phone are different and this ones designed for hboot 75 so if the incredible has a different hboot we are definately waiting longer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nemanracing:
Re: HTC Desire Rooted ... Hopefully Were Next? Updated 04/28/2010

hboot is 0.77.0000
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bmcclure937:
Looking forward to following the progress on the Incredible "root" efforts ;)

Good news that people are already hard at work. Paul's work on the Desire will surely be valuable, but it is disheartening that he has been unable to write to the recovery partition as of right now. The thought of having a rooted device without access to custom recovery images frightens me (as far as maintenance goes)!

I am planning to switch from TMobile to Verizon in the upcoming months and the Droid Incredible seems to be the most promising candidate for a top-tier, rooted, HTC Android device. I will be moving from the Nexus One and am glad that the devices will be similar. Hopefully there will be a nice port of CyanogenMod ROM for the Incredible!! ;)

Keep up the great work devs! I am anxious to hear what happens in the coming weeks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tbaker077:
I read in reviews that the flash on this device tends to over-blow some pics, because of a timing issue or something. Could a root help adjust the timing of when the flash goes off or something to help improve pics?

No, I won't be working on the Droid Incredible, it's useless to me in the UK. Sadly. :-) 19 minutes ago via Tweetie
[Droid Incredible Android Development] acidbath5546:
That could of been assumed already since he wouldnt be able to use a droid incredible in UK anyways :)

It is his Desire Root that will help us ...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pjsockett:
I'm not quite sure how when his method is based on a device specific test RUU.

True, though he had previously said he'd at least look into it.

hboot 77 here in the office, waiting root so we can blast HTC sense off the phone. Its horrible compared to native 2.1 but thats an opinion.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AndroidBruce:
I hope this doesn't turn out to be another Droid Eris situation

I will go back to my Droid in a SECOND if this root seems tough
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 1wingangel:
Re: HTC Desire Rooted ... Hopefully Were Next? Updated 04/28/2010

go to settings,applications,manage applications,htc sense. clear data or force stop or something. then press home and choose home. should get rid of sense.

Tried all of it. None of it worked. Still sense. It's not a custom Rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] binny1007:
#1 Sense is here to stay, htc made sure there was no way to disable it, as of right now you will be stuck with sense.

#2 i have been loooking over pauls Root process, and it looks like it relies on the gold card trick, wich i am not sure will work for us.... sorry to be the bereer of bad news, but we may be at square one.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] ufvj217:
just got mine, and im with the other guy above, all i want to root is to get my wireless tether back that i had on my g1! if not, ill live with it, becuase the phone is great out of the box!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] deekjx:
Re: HTC Desire Rooted ... Hopefully Were Next? Updated 04/28/2010

That's one thing the Sprint HTC EGO has on us that I think is useful. They get WiFi sharing out of the box with up to 5 devices.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] 1wingangel:
There are wired tether apps in the market that don't require root.

I wonder if they will somehow interfere with verizon's "pay to tether" option.

I think it's like 15 bucks a month.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ejlax:
If you download helix launcher 1 or 2 you can go to settings and clear the defaults from HTC sense and use the helix launcher
[Droid Incredible Android Development] askwhy:
Just picked up the Incredible -- coming back to Verizon after a year with Sprint and most recently, the HTC Hero. This thing is great as is, but like the rest of you I will be eagerly watching for any news of root.

I found it a bit funny that even with all the extra memory, it has the same thresholds set for internal task-killer as the Hero, and won't start automatically killing processes until it's down to around 24MB available memory -- and the Incredible shows 404 total in Quick System Info. That is a lot of background clutter, even if it's not a real performance drag until near the bottom. Until we get root, I don't know of any way to adjust this (echo to minfree from adb shell didn't work of course without being able to write to sys). I guess it's back to a regular task killer app for the time being.

The 8GB built in is going to be great once we get root. With 748MB already allocated as 'Internal storage', it makes me wonder what will be possible in terms of re-organizing the partitions down the road. Even without root, that's a ton of space for phone apps (and no apps2sd needed).

Anyways, hello everyone. I hope you are all enjoying your Incredibles as much as I am mine, and I can't wait to see this board get cooking...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] roberj13:
I never actually thought about the fact that we might be able to do something with that internal memory. I am excited to see root on this phone. Especially since my wife has inherited my rooted Droid with cm! I am trying to resist the urge to get impatient, I keep watching all the incredible root threads on multiple sites and thinking, there is no traffic on here is there anyone even working on root? Then I pinch myself and remember that this phone was released yesterday. Good luck getting there guys. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] eighty1:
Im in the same boat as you. I keep a keen eye on the root thread trying to stay encouraged that it will come. I was spoiled with purchasing my first android device(Nexus One), which was rooted before the phone was even released so I was able to root soon as my phone arrived. I guess if it was a GSM device we would have better luck with getting it rooted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] g00s3y:
I the same... I just picked this phone up yesterday, coming from a TP2... miss being able to flash custom roms for the moment. But the speed and features and overall sexiness of this thing will keep me entertained until the root comes lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gimpeh:
With a phone as Popular as this I doubt the wait will be long.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SoCalMiles:
(Double post...weird)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SoCalMiles:
LOL I never realized how much I missed flashing roms every chance I got on my Droid. I'm actually having a blast with this phone! Would love to remove some of this dead wait off it though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] binny1007:
just a info note its up to us get this rooted paul is not going to develope a root for us

Hello all,

I just got my Droid Incredible and am prepared to help hack the root access. Who are the people actually working on it and how can I help?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] binny1007:
acid, you might want to update the first post, as we know that pauls method will not work for us unill we get a test signed img. If we ever do....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] linuxophile:
Agreed Binny... The first page is very unclear and indicates that it has been fixed for the Incredible. So for the record...

THE HTC DROID INCREDIBLE HAS NOT BEEN ROOTED AS OF YET, BUT THEY ARE WORKING ON IT.... STAY TUNED!!!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] b16a2smith:
will it help to have the ota ? i think i can post it here
[Droid Incredible Android Development] R1lover:
Do we need to pony up and put a bounty on the incredible root?

I'm willing to dump some cash for it, if it will help?

I know its a long shot, but..........
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pimpindexter:
Not sure if this was asked, or taken into consideration. Just a question

Verizon Unlocks the SPL when you press *288. is there any information from it that can be useful? Let’s say logcat the process?

Just shooting out ideas.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] g00s3y:
just stop... this has nothing to do with rooting...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] linuxophile:
Even still it's not *288, it's *228 for SPL programming updates.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hetaldp:
*228 have nothing to do with SPL it just change NVItems for CDMA Radio Parameters after successful *228 Process
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ffej5647:
I can see this thread ending up like the Droid Eris Root Bounty Thread.....hopefully root won't take as long though. Has the Eris method been tested on the Incredible? Can't wait till we get root!!!! By the way...was the Eris bounty ever distributed to whom deserved it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kevinniven:
wow

seems to be taking a long time, must be problems :confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] coolbho3000:
I don't think a bounty would help rooting efforts. If anything, it will increase competition, causing people attempting to root this device to keep information to themselves.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hetaldp:
@ coolbho3000

I fully agree with you
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drew630:
The 'Eris method' was not a method at all. We got a leaked rom with SU in it that enabled us to update to that rom and then flash any custom rom we wanted from there. So no it wouldn't work for the incredible.

As far as I know Caboose found the rom, some how, and he did not accept the bounty.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] krelvinaz:
This thread should be closed since this method is not going to root the Incredible.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] syrguy1969:
They aren't saying the way the Desire was rooted will work, just that there is hope for the Incredible. In the begining, it was thought that since the two devices were so closely related that they would be a similar root, but that didn't pan out.

So basically the title was just referencing the hope that since the Desire was that the Incredible could as well. Definetly a needed and meaningful thread. :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ffej5647:
Oh wow. Well hopefully we get another leaked rom for the Incredible as I believe that it will be just as impossible to root the incredible as it was the eris.
