No problem at all, I am excited as hell for this phone, just wanted to thwart any confusion! Hopefully we get some proof soon, the OP is full of it. I remember waiting for the original Inc and it was only about 2 weeks prior to release we had confirmed specs

There is no way in heck I would claim to have something like this IN HAND without snapping a photo of it. Do we not have boundless access to cell cameras, digital cameras, web cams, etc?! If you were privileged enough to have a DInc4 IN HAND, dont you think you would also be savvy enough to figure out a way to take a photo? I know three year olds that know how to take pictures.
Seriously.
No, The only way I have access is by asking a manager from another department as he is carrying it around as his personal phone. Im not going to whip out my camera and start taking pics of it in front of him.

Don't sweat it. Haters always gonna hate.


IIRC from waiting for the first Droid Incredible, Verizon higher ups also were using the phone at the time. This forum only got lucky because there was somebody on Twitter who had access to the phone and came and registered here and shared photos and specs.

Anyhow.... got any 411 on the other upcoming phone, the Droid Fighter? Any other phones being tested around by HTC or Sammy? Thanks!

I can appreciate this situation, and if it is so I do appreciate your sharing what information you can.
But you must understand our skepticism as it isn't uncommon for people to release false information for personal satisfaction. While I don't understand this motivation, it happens. And it's usually a new face that created a new user ID whose first purpose is to stir peoples excitement about new phones and rumors, which this being your first activity here looks suspiciously like.
I don't mean to be insulting, just cautiously skeptical.

Edit: New HTC Device With Incredible 2 Styling Leaks With 4G LTE and Running Ice Cream Sandwich – Droid Life

Sent from my incredible
Those pics look fake to me, but who knows. The htc one software looks completely different(which the incredible 4G should be modeled after). The "about phone" section doesnt look anything like other htc phones, and I've never seen a "hardware information" section, at least, I don't remember one on the original inc...

And the overall software styling looks exactly like gingerbread.

You still have yet to answer the questions about the capacitive buttons and sense/ics.

No, you didn't answer the question... It was asked what the fourth capacitive button you mentioned is for... All other ICS phones only have 3 buttons.

You say it's identical to one s, but the one s only has 3.

I have read the entire thread and still don't understand what's going on with the four capacitive keys and ICS/sense 4.0 running with the the three...
I just don't get it.
I mean really I don't care either way,I like the search button & I am kinda sad to see it go on a "google" phone.

Anyway, it is easily replaced by an on screen widget for the same functionality...

Oh, well, it's ICS and sense 4.0 with the traditional 4 key Android hTC phone layout made for VZW, I guess, that's all I can see.:what:

Basically it doesn't make ANY sense that the phone would have four capacitive buttons, when all other ICS HTC phones got rid of them.

This is what sense 4.0 and ICS look like:

LOL, what does not make sense about it? Its has an extra capacitive button. I dont understand how this is difficult to comprehend...

So you guys are saying that just because some other ICS phones have only three button that the forth button the the incredible 4G will just be unassigned and do nothing?

LOOOOOOL!!!

Im sorry but I just had to giggle at the logic being displayed here.

What is the button for? What is its function? It's a simple question. Capacitive buttons have a designated function built in. Are you saying the incredible 4g is keeping with the froyo/gingerbread layout for its buttons(no multitasking button)?.. Or does it have the new ICS layout with a mystery fourth button?

Don't understand why you can't just answer the question? When you are the one who started the thread and asked if there was anything we wanted to know.

I didn't say it would simply do nothing. Just said it confused me and didn't make sense...

I am accepting the fact that ICS/ sense 4.0 on this phone just has the search button. (4 keys)

When my Dinc2 in my hand now, gets updated to ICS it will still have the 4 keys... Given it might not be sense 4.0 though.

You clearly aren't reading what we're saying. We're asking what this fourth button does. ICS does away with some of the buttons used in Gingerbread phones, and most ICS phones just use 3 buttons. So we're curious to see what this fourth button does.

Doesn't have to be, it could be a menu button. It would either have to be:

Menu, back, home, search(Old layout) and not congruent to current ICS HTC phones

Or

Home, back, multitask (what all current ICS HTC phones have)

Or

Home, back, multitask, search(ICS layout)

Or

Home, back, multitask, menu(ICS layout)

If it does have the older layout, it brings in to question how current other hardware on the phone would be. Why would they use an outdated hardware model for a brand new phone?

So the question goes back to Incredible4G, does the phone have the multitask button? If yes, what is the fourth button (search or menu or ??) or does it use the outdated layout?

Also does it have beats audio?

The logic in this thread is getting funnier and funnier now.

The specs of the phone are already confirmed as Snapdragon S4, 1gb RAM, ICS, Sense 4.0, FOUR capacitive buttons and yet you still are wondering if the specs will be the old snapdragon S3? This is now getting too funny IMO. lol.

And you are still ignoring the question... List what each capacitive button does. I never said anything about the processor....
I'm questioning the reasoning behind HTC using an outdated hardware model (not talking about the processor) for a brand new phone especially since all other new phones from htc dont use the four capacitive button model. I don't expect you to answer WHY they did it, just want to confirm the button choices... So again can you list what each capacitive button is for?

And this is just a comment about HTC, not directed at you(incredible4g) I find it odd, if they are using the old layout, that they would design a phone for ICS and not use capacitive buttons that most enhance the OS. ESPECIALLY since the htc one s and htc one x both use the new capacitive layout.

Well, yeah, snapdragon Qualcomm S4 is certainly the latest hardware not to be hindered by an extra capacitive key. No other phone that is out now in the U.S. Has an S4, this Dinc3/4G will be the first on VZW.
The key layout will be identical to this phone. (Dinc2)
Home, menu, back, search. The names of the keys are redundant for their purpose, but it still needs some type of multifunction type ICS function...

Yes, it will have beats.

Confirmed by who? You? Verizon has announced nothing yet. You still aren't telling us what the fourth button is for. Instead you are insisting our logic makes no sense at all, when it clearly does. We just want to know what these four buttons do. Because it is unlikely that the buttons from the Droid Incredible 2 are going to be used in a new ICS Droid Incredible 3. The new standard in ICS based phones is three buttons, so if the Droid incredible 3 has four buttons, what are they?

hTC made this phone to VZW's specific specs. VZW is a controlling carrier. And, you know they want it done their way.
They dropped in a special S4 processor inside optimized to run on their LTE network...
VZW told them they wanted the traditional Android 4 key layout.
Identical to the Dinc2.
hTC is making the new sense 4.0 phones with the 3 key layout.
VZW didn't want that for this One S variant that they are branding as a Droid Incredible 4 to run on their network.

I'm telling you VZW axed the One S new style keys for the traditional layout on sense 4.0/ICS for this handset.

Ok, I admit now after thinking about it, It *might* have a multitask key.
In fact it should.
...:what:
Maybe long pressing the traditional menu or home will bring up the overflow/multitask function...

I'm sure the four buttons would be used just like they are used on any other phone being updated to ICS. The button doesn't become, "useless" per se, just it has been tied back into the OS by HTC instead of Google.

As for the people saying the pictures don't look right, keep in mind that those leaks are from even before the One series were announced. It may be different because it was a prior build. If you look at the leaked pics of the One S, Sense looks a little different before it was announced there too. :-p

As for the people saying the pictures don't look right, keep in mind that those leaks are from even before the One series were announced. It may be different because it was a prior build. If you look at the leaked pics of the One S, Sense looks a little different before it was announced there too. :-p
I just don't understand why'd they'd do this, instead of tying it in with the One series and giving it the same look. It just looks so much better, and goes better with ICS. And this is an ICS phone, not a phone being updated for ICS at a later time. So why not go with the ICS button layout, as with the other 4.0 phones that are coming out? It just bums me out because it looks so much better. Hopefully it still has a multi-tasking button though.

So you guys are saying that just because some other ICS phones have only three button that the forth button the the incredible 4G will just be unassigned and do nothing?

LOOOOOOL!!!

Im sorry but I just had to giggle at the logic being displayed here.
For someone claiming to represent Verizon and have the phone, you are not doing a good job at all.

Instead of insulting people you would do good to, you know, answer the legitimate questions people have.

No pics, no proof.

A mod should lock this thread.

Damn I remember the box! What a crazy time that was. Looks like the rezound just got marked down to $49, plenty of time to sell off stock before Inc 4g hits

Yes, that is exactly what they are doing by marking down the Rezound. They are dumping the S3 processors, the new lucid has one inside too, external LTE. Dinc4 will be the first with internal LTE.

On the key layout issue, I think the new 3 key layout makes it look like a Windows phone.
Given, I have never used it, it probably functions very good with the OS.
I just don't like the way the 3 keys look. I prefer the "look"of the traditional Android layout.

Alright, now I'm slightly confused. The Rezound has mostly better specs than the rumored Droid Incredible 4G. And now it's only 49$. What's stopping me from buying the Rezound as opposed to the Incredible 4G? Clearly there must be something more to this device. The Droid Incredible 4G is suspected to be priced somewhere between 100$-200$. Why would I pay more for a device that has inferior specifications? The only thing the rumored Dinc4g has going for it is an S4 processor and a thinner body.

Because you want the newest coolest phone on the block with the fastest processor.

S4 with LTE built in on the chip will be the bomb!

I was thinking more like 250 to 300 $ range.
Hope it's a cool 150$.

Yeah you're right. I don't know why I was thinking it was to going to be so high.
Still, I will *barley* be able to swing it.
I am gonna have to sell off the Incredible 2, old fashioned horse tradin' style.

I would really like to keep it though, it's a great phone!

Of course, if the OP would be kind enough to post some verifiable proof that he/she has the phone in hand instead of us just taking their word on it, it would severely limit the flaming that is probably coming.

I don't mean to be insulting, just cautiously skeptical.
this is a very on point post, sums the situation up nicely

Now this kind of talk is not going to be tolerated, Site Rules and all that. You should check out the quoted post just above yours right here, the atheist sums it up nicely i think.

If you are gonna post a thread like this then you HAVE to expect skepticism and downright disbelief, that is just the way it is on the internet. There will also be plenty who are just happy to have ANY info about an upcoming device and will naturally ask questions... you can either answer them or ignore them but you WILL NOT start calling people lazy. Understood?

Identical to the Dinc2.

VZW didn't want that for this One S variant that they are branding as a Droid Incredible 4 to run on their network.

I'm telling you VZW axed the One S new style keys for the traditional layout on sense 4.0/ICS for this handset..
You seem awfully sure, where are you getting this from? I only ask because I really haven't read anything about this phone till I stumbled on this thread and you seem to be speaking with more certainty than the specs/pics/leaks I've seen provide????

Proof is a funny thing. Lets be clear, ANY user has the right to say post any rumor/spec/etc they wish and NOT get harassed about it, nor is said user allowed to be rude/condescending to other users. There is a quote from our esteemed community manger floating around concerning a situation like this, I'll see if I can dig it up.

Since there only a couple threads in this section I'd hate to have to lock any of them .

Lets ALL just be respectful to each other (or not post at all)

Sorry for the long post and thanks for understanding\

I guess I will wait and see if this was real. With the new deal on the Rezound I was about to order it. But if this is real it would be a great replacement for my original Incredible. Yea still rocking with it. lol

Actually, I think the processor will seal the deal for me. Since it has built-in LTE, the battery usage will be much more efficient. Dinc4G it is

I'm still hoping for something that will catch me by surprise with this phone. I hear the HTC Rezound price drop is only for a week(til 4/9), I assume they'll announce the Dinc4G soon afterward.

Something that would be nice, and slightly surprising, would be including a pair of Beats headphones like the HTC Rezound did.

I've been following the reviews on the One S and it's apparently getting way better battery life than the One X. Obviously the One X is powered by a T3 on review units and not an S4, still.... I'm pretty hopeful about potential battery life. I must say though, I'm curious how much LTE will be a factor though as the One S reviews are strictly GSM Faux-G units. Without the battery sucking 720p screen and with LTE on chip, this might be something exciting to see.

Cool, so other than battery life, why should I get the Inc4G over the Rezound? Specs are damn near the same and the screen on the Rezound is better. Plus removable battery and SD card.

Ok, I'll admit I was a bit excited when I posted this. Things were kinda going haywire over the keys.
I used some strong words. I was also kinda frustrated with the situation.

I am getting this from VZW's past track record for modifying handsets.
I remember when I read that they tell manufactures make the menu of all their feature phones look alike. They are all simplified with same type of icons. Giving them all a uniform look instead of looking like the menu of what type of phone it is. A Nokia phones menu probably won't look like a Motorola phone. I have also seen this for myself. My wife having a lg and a Samsung phone with the menus looking almost exactly the same.

VZW is known for re-branding phones, as their own bigtime.
Also, pretty much slamming their fist on the table to get manufacturers to make custom versions to their own specific specs.

The leaked pictures from the Feb.10th article show the phone with the four keys.
Now we have a poster that started a thread saying he works for VZW, his boss has the phone and it still has the 4 key layout.
I think these two clues one visual, and one typed by someone who saw the actual phone agree.
I believe Incredible4G that his boss has the phone & he saw it and checked it out.
There has never been a report that the phone has the new three key layout or a pic yet?
Only the hTC One series suggests that.
I know Verizon tells manufactures to make handsets to their specific specs and are probably very picky and pushy about it.
I may have been too over the top in my first post but, I still believe that the Dinc4g will have the 4 key layout and VZW had a say in it because it is not like hTC's new lineup of handsets that all run on ICS/sense 4.0 and have the new 3 key layout.
hTC wants to sell the One series "as is". They know different carriers will want to do their own thing with them. This is VZW's attempt at uniformity. Yes the galaxy nexus is the exception. That was more of a "special" handset that they allowed.

*no sarcasm here*
Does anyone else have a better explanation that makes more sense?
I am open to hear it. Also, if I am wrong I will honestly admit it. That's the only thing about the key situation that sounds right to me.
I wanted to leave this^^^ last part out but, felt compelled to put it.
We are basically still in the speculation stage here and nothing proves otherwise.
I just can't wait too see some fresh pics of this phone that prove otherwise.
Again this is the internet, and speculation, I might be wrong.
I just wanted to get past the 4 key layout debacle.
Who knows, they might change it at the last minute and the bossman might be left with a "rare" hTC phone...and I am probably guilty of rationalizing...

Still in all I am excited about this new Incredible!!!
Sincerely, G.A.

But all of HTCs new handsets do HAVE the 3 key layout... Show me one that doesn't... There is only two, the HTC one s and the htc one x... Obviously, it's quite possible that the phone(Inc4G) has the 4 key layout, but it is highly doubtful... And our "source", Incredible4g, has yet to verify/state what each button is for.

I Was trying to say that all of the One series has the 3 keys and that the Dinc4G is not like them because it doesn't have it.
I can't show you one that doesn't have it because they all have it, the X, S , and V. I agree with that.

I also respect your opinion that you think the Dinc4G will not have the 4 keys.

Seems weird to me that Incredible 4G is posting in other phone forums bashing the crap out of new devices (check the LG Lucid section...). I've also seen posts replying to a few phone blogs that are almost identical to his rantings on here, so I'm assuming it's the same person. I'm wondering what his motives are on these forums. Apparently he's the only one in the world, or on the net at least, that has seen this phone in person. He wants to shell out all the awesome details, but won't answer specific questions about the phone. Anyone else here not believing the BS?

Yea when someone who is attempting to be legit starts doing stuff like bashing the competition that kind of kills credibility with me. Cool to go out on a limb and divulge information like this though most I have seen posted else where over the past couple weeks so still not sure how credible this is.

But if true I like what I am seeing about this phone so far.

There hasn't been anything posted here that hasn't already been posted on other android news sites, other than the OP stating that it does have the S4 processor which was pretty much assumed anyway.

This is the only other picture(s) that I can find of this mystery handset...

If you search "adr6410" on Amazon this is what you get, the are some others but they all look the same from the same company.

From bbeelzebub's phone case popping up on Amazon topic in the Incredible 4 forum...


Man, we need some fresh ones...

Well, it's certainly shopped from one of the phonearena pics, the flash is in the exact same place with the same effect... The brightness then the line in the upper left/middle.
