Short answer... Everything ;)
[Vibrant General] kboater:
I have not used it, but an app called Plan B got released recently. It will find your phone even if you did not install it before it got stolen.

Again, i have not used it, but I think your google account still has to be associated with the phone, so you may want to try it before whoever stole it resets it. (not sure, but guessing)

I know you said gps told you its in the apartments, but Im guessing it wont show you which one? Even if it does not tell you which apartment, see it if will get you close. I read that Plan B will send the location every 10 minutes, so you could watch to see if it moves. For example, if you know its on one of the apartments, see who comes and goes, and if in that time period any of the find your phone apps tell you its moving, at least you can figure out who has it...

thats what I would do at least

if you try any of the above, let us know the results
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Ahh that was one sad day.

I'd slap the **** out of the police who knocked my door down lol (then i'd be arrested for attacking a government official)

Atleast he got his **** back later right?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Yes, do that, the app PLAN B is great huh specially with the web market you can install it.

Just a thought, what would you do if this happened lol..

Your just walking near the apartments and drop your keys or something a nice guy takes it and gives it to you. you thank him and start talking. you get your email from PLAN B

the location it tells you is the guy next to you.

LOL.
[Vibrant General] kboater:
lol. be really pissed. maybe knock the **** out of him. Or a more rational thing would be that since you then know who it is, so call the police and have them handle it.

BTW, OP, let us know if my suggestion above worked or if you did something else
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
The ****ty GPS on this phone really doesn't help with situation like this: when you need the precious position of the culprit. :mad:

I had a phone stolen from me while i was taking a piss.

it was in my jacket pocket.

it was a loose jacket.

That was the last time i put my phone in my jacket pocket.

I'm still wondering how i didn't feel the person.
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
That must be an interesting experience. To have another man stick his hand down your pocket while taking a leak.... :rolleyes::D
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
Its more interesting to know how the hell did the thief get so close to him when taking a piss but still our guy did not get even slightly suspicious or awkward.

[Vibrant General] fioricet:
no luck so far. been looking on craiglist and all are coming with boxes and accessories that were not stolen.

the phone has not been turned on again since 4 hours after it was stolen.

we did put reward signs in the apartment complex but no luck there

we have received a new one for the expensive 130 dollar deductible and activated a new sim today so we will never tell if it moves again.

lesson learned. don't eat at golden corral!! the customers there suck

[HTC Inspire 4G] isaacfank:
I have looked and looked.

Is there anything that makes all notifications pop-up? I know its what people hate about the iPhone, but I like it for some apps. If there is anything out there just point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] doktor buknasty:
You could use sms popup for text messages. It's similar to how messages show up on the iPhone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] isaacfank:
The problem with that is it only deals with text messages. And I use Google voice. I want it for all notifications. But I guess there isn't anything at the moment.
[HTC Inspire 4G] smalis:
You can use BugMe for custom alarms.

Tasker likely can create popups for notifications, but I have not done this.
[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
The good thing about the 7" SGT is that it is very portable and can be put inside a jacket pocket.

Since the 8.9" tablet is 1.9" larger, do you think that this diagonal stretch would still be able to fit inside the pocket.

Lucky for the female gender, they probably put it in their purse.
[Galaxy Tab General] dogofwar:
it will fits.. if u have a big pocket
[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
Thanks for the input.

I lost my common sense when I made that post.

Luckily I just found it (common sense).
[Galaxy Tab General] Squishie:
For your standard leather jacket breast pocket - I highly doubt it. My Tab *BARELY* fits in mine and even I think the pocket is big to begin with.

Unless you plan on carrying it in a light jacket with one of those weird hybrid inside-outside pockets you won't be able to fit it. Also you want to have it sit at breast level, sitting at the bottom of a jacket is highly uncomfortable and VERY awkward. I hate to say it but packing something even bigger than the Tab would be a royal pain in the ass.
[Galaxy Tab General] alvinlts:
Whether 8.9 inch is portable is one question, and whether it will come with phone functionality is another.

Not being pessimistic, but it does seem I"ll be stuck with my galaxy tab for quite a bit longer... and its replacement will probably come from a brand other than samsung.
[Galaxy Tab General] milomak:
Have to say i am not happy that this new initial influx of tabs is likely to be in form factors bigger than 7". For me it is the perfect size.

----------
[Galaxy Tab General] abanh:
Engadget had some photos of the LG 8.9" tab along with the xoom and Samsung 10" tab for comparison not too long ago. The LG 8.9" was nearly the same size as the two 10" tabs.
[Galaxy Tab General] EvoTastic:
I think a contributing factor also is how light the 8.9 will be. I can get a nice folio case and carry it around like a book as I do with my 7" Galaxy tab lots because I live in California and it's not always jacket weather. If it as this and light as it's been teased, I will definitely migrate to the 8.9". The iPad, iPad 2 and Xoom are all too large and the Xoom is too heavy IMO
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jes7er:
As the Incredible comes up on its birthday, I've started thinking about other phones to move to. The Thunderbolt is an obvious consideration, as well as the Incredible S. I'm assuming that both will be supported by ROM developers fairly - maybe not to the extent that the Inc is supported, but I think there will be a few choices.

I used another upgrade on my family plan to get the Incredible, so I have an upgrade waiting for whenever I find a phone that's compelling enough to upgrade to (or I break the Incredible...). The Thunderbolt is looking a little more appealing than the Incredible S now, especially because its only a little bit bigger and has 4g for the same data price as the Inc S (at least as i understand it... $30/mo for unlimited LTE, which I assume includes 3g as well?)

Just wondering what you guys had in mind in terms of upgrading. Thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
I'm not planning on changing anytime soon, if they seriously work out a lot of the issues in the TB *maybe* but I doubt it.

The only reason I'd want to upgrade is for 4G, and it's going to be a year or 2 before it gets to my area. To be honest, 3G speeds are perfectly fine for me. Can stream youtube flawless as well as hulu. More speed the better, but no push for me to upgrade.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2776902:
I think ill get the iPhone 6... JK, I'm on a 2yr contract with my Incredible started 4/29/2010 (got on launch day). So whatever is out in 2012 I guess. Hopefully my dinc will last another year. Surprised I haven't broken it yet.

But how do you go about upgrading to another phone out of contract? Like the thunderbolt, would I just pay the retail price in full (rumored @ $750) and keep the current contract?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karnovaran:
Pretty much. I bought the Droid 2 when I came over to Verizon and after a few months bought an Incredible full price (the Droid 2 almost covered it via eBay). You just change your device on the website and it doesn't affect your contract.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnight assassin:
It looks like a lot of devs are going towards the TB. That will probably be the biggest factor in my decision making.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
I'll probably use this last annual upgrade to get the TB on a one year contract. With any luck, those getting the TB now will be grandfathered with the $29.99 unlimited LTE for future equipment upgrades.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fillyo:
I will likely upgrade on 1yr contract with TB also. I am not up for upgrade until August, but an account rep approved an early upgrade. The way things are shaping up, it really could be 3rd quarter before anything significantly better drops on VZW. At that point, I could sell the TB and buy the next great phone at retail.

Id just love to have gingerbread with sense, dont need a new phone as my dinc has been great since release date!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bill102938:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gio2005:
I have a DX and a DINC,

I honestly do not see much of a reason to upgrade just yet. with the exception of 4G and front facing cameras, these new phones are not exactly blowing the doors off of the previous models. I love my DINC, and I plan on waiting at least for a while until this winter/next spring..I'm hoping that by then the new phones will be a bit more of an upgrade.

Besides, I at least need to wait to see which devices will or will not have locked bootloaders.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenna728:
Which phone do you prefer Incredible or X?

I just bought my Incredible a week ago, I love the dev support and how smooth the phone is, hate the battery life.

I really like the huge DX screen.... Not sure if it would be a good idea to trade.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gio2005:
The screen was nice and the size wasn't bad...but it can't touch the inc.

Stock it was loaded with so much bloat that it lagged horribly. There were some great roms for it though.

Overall my experience is that I had to rom my X to make it as fast as a stock inc.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abrin:
I'm waiting for an HTC Dual-Core phone. The TB isn't enough of an upgrade for me to leave the comfort of my beloved DINC. My dream would be for an HTC Tegra 2 phone but I know it will never happen due to HTC's relationship with Qualcomm. So something Pyramid-esq I'm guessing that'll be coming out this summer.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenna728:
Thanks for the reply. I guess I will stick with the Incredible then.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chadstone30:
my next phone is the thunderbolt. i'm really excited to wait in line at 8:30 am for it tomorrow.

i'm upgrading to 4g for the same reason i upgraded to 802.11n. the population density in the city is just too high. all the cells are just overloaded. verizon's not bad, but AT&T is just horrendous. i actually got AT&T to waive the ETF on my iPhone plan so i could move to VZW and get an OG Droid. anyway, back when i had an 802.11g router my signal strength was fine, but the speeds were just terrible. a 20 second kismac scan just now reveals 45 different wireless networks coursing through my apartment. after moving to wireless n the difference was huge and i'm hoping the same effect will be seen after moving to LTE. i'm also hoping that my signal strength will be better on the 700 mHz band. my office in the Financial District has a not-very-good signal and i hear 700 mHz penetrates further into the built environment.

finally, i'm really stoked to go to a 4.3" screen. i bought an HD2 and took it abroad so i could have a phone with a local sim while traveling. although mobile data speeds in india and bangladesh were pretty awful, i really enjoyed using android on that giant HD2 display. a higher resolution screen would be nice, but i'm ready to move on from my DInc so that's not a requirement for me.

see you in the thunderbolt forums.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lainzee:
I'm not eligible for an upgrade on my line until next January, and to be honest there is not anything coming out that I feel like I have to have.

A larger screen is nice (I even brought an X off of eBay to play around with because I love how big it is) and 4G is nice but my area won't have 4G coverage for awhile. Something has to blow me away for me want to pay full retail for it, and most of these phones don't have anything that make them stand out to me compared to the Incredible.

Hopefully they'll announce something really cool by the end of the year so when I'm closer to my upgrade date I'll have something to be excited about.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mithos der Held:
I'm going my full 2 yrs with my incredible then will re-up with something else. I'll look for the latest HTC one i supposed. Since HTC simply seems to be the best well rounded manufacturer of Android products. I've had absolutely no complaints about my incredible. And before this I hated phones and had a crappy flip phone that could be seen regularly flying thru the air when I would get a call. Now my DInc is my 1st born child with regards to how I treat it.

I have to stick to Verizon (for work) and I am actually sad there is no "true" successor for the Incredible yet. The Thunderbolt is nice, but it's too big. Oh well, I get an upgrade next February, we'll see. Also, I will be considering webOS, WP7 for my next upgrade.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spatton:
I'm not ready for an upgrade for 15 months - so I wont even entertain the thought/question. Who knows what will be available.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0soPolar:
I picked up the DInc cheap on Ebay from someone who upgraded their phone to a (gasp) iPhone. (bleh) IMHO, since I'm coming from an Eris that has seen so many different roms I don't even know where to start including CM7 Gingerbread (which was kinda hot, since the official os stopped at 2.1), the DInc is where it's at. I won't be upgrading until a phone comes out that is more than just a marginal improvement over what the DInc and EVO 4G have to offer. Chasing every new baby step in tech is a waste of money if you're willing to spend the time and energy to develop what you have into what you want.

Just like the DInc is lightyears ahead of the Eris, there will be a phone that blows the doors off of the DInc. Hopefully around 8/11 when my contract is up. ;)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorSasquatch:
I'm hoping for either the Incredible 2 or, HOPEFULLY the HTC pyramid

The only thing that might mess with the pyramid is tmo/att merge, but depending on when the pyramid comes out/when (if) the merge goes through a two year contract would probably be done with

I noticed in the market that the youtube app was updated. I tried to run the update on my Nookie Froyo, but it fails to install, saying that the signature is invalid.

My question is, whether anyone has successfully installed the update on their NC, and whether it is actually worth updating? It sounds like most of the features it upgrades have to do with commenting, and not in the actual playing of the youtube videos.

What say anyone?

Thanks
