    Help Battery change, everything Force closes

    I'm running Virtuous 3.0.1, and I have both the stock and extended battery for the phone. My stock battery just ran out of juice, and when I put the extended battery in and started up the phone, I get a series of force closes. Additionally, some apps have magically disappeared - e.g...

    Help Voicemail not working

    My Incredible has stopped receiving visual voicemails for some reason. It displays a notification stating that voicemail activities have been received, but I can see that it hasn't updated since September 7th. It is not downloading my new VMs. If I call *86, I can get them just fine. How do...

    Root SD card problems after installing Virtuous ROM

    I installed the latest virtuous modified stock froyo ROM, and it completely destroyed my phone. Once everything loaded, the phone would no longer reload my SD card. I cleared cache/wiped the system, tried it twice, still no dice. I tried to go back to my Nandroid backup - 2.1 rooted, s-off...

    Help Titanium - Where are my widgets and home screens?

    I just updated to the leaked Froyo Rom. Before doing so, I backed up using Titanium. Then, once the Rom was installed, I did a restore of "all applications and system settings." But for some reason, all my homescreen settings did not return. For example, on one Homescreen, I had the...

    Root Titanium Backup - Leaked Froyo

    Okay, I've asked this question in several other threads and forums, but never gotten a clear answer: If I use Titanium to back up my Inc w/ 2.1+rooted+Leaked OTA , can I safely restore all apps, settings (including email account settings, wallpaper, home screens), and appearance once I install...

    Root Leaked OTA update + Root, now what?

    So I just got done installing the leaked OTA and rooting my phone, but now I've read conflicting reports that when Froyo comes out in a couple weeks, I won't be able to install it without going back to stock 2.1. Even worse, going back to stock means erasing all the data and apps on my phone...

    Help Google contacts updated; Big Problem

    So I just got done spending hours hard-resetting and re-imaging my phone. Once I got everything up and running, I decided to go through my 2500 gmail contacts and cut them down to 315. I did just that, but the "people" widget was still showing thousands of names, even after a battery pull. I...

    Help Contacts, duplicates, and several accounts, Oh my!!

    Ok, so maybe I'm the only one who has run into this problem, but I doubt it. I am overwhelmed by the contact organization system on my inc. I don't understand it at all, actually. I have the following accounts linked to my phone: 1) Exchange Account (using Touchdown App) 2) Gmail account...

    Help My phone is Fu&*#d!!!

    So, I cannot figure out what's going on, but my phone is so screwed up. Whenever I try to do download anything from the market, it just says "download started..." but never actually downloads anything (even after leaving it overnight). When I click on the "people" widget, the phone has a...

    Help Forgot Password - Now what?

    I've been using Lockpicker on my Incredible, which requires a password due to the Exchange policies. I turned Lockpicker off by accident and now it wants me to put my old password in. I have no idea what it is. I'm on attempt #10/10, and I don't want the device to erase my data. I can't turn...

    Help Exchange inline forwarding

    I'm having a problem forwarding email messages from my phone. Whenever I do so, it shows up as an attachment to the recipient, rather than as inline text. I cannot find any option to fix this. I've tried both the native client and Touchdown, but to no avail. How do I fix this?

    Get the VZW Extended Battery FREE!

    So I called VZW yesterday, complaining about the Incredible's crappy battery. I had returned my first Incredible, which I got on launch day, because I thought my phone had a problem. Since then, of course, it's been shown that all Incredibles have poor battery life. I explained to the rep...

    Help Facebook + HTC SENSE = FAIL!

    As if the Incredible didn't have enough problems with the battery issue, I'm having yet another problem: some of my Facebook friends pix don't show up on the "favorites" widget. I've added and removed Facebook for HTC Sense several times, and it syncs a great deal of my friends, but for some...

    Help Too many contacts!!

    I copied my bosses' Exchange contact list into my own, not realizing he had almost 5000 names in it. Now, those contacts have not only synced into my phone, but also my gmail. This makes it very difficult to sift through my personal contacts. Without deleting them one by one, is there any way...

    The battery charger problem

    Ok, just wanted to bring this to light since it was brought up deep within another thread. There is definitely a problem with the way the INC charges its battery. Many of you - like myself - have been experiencing super quick battery drain, particularly with the phone dropping from 100% to 93%...

    New Incredible, New Battery, Same Result

    Just swapped out my incredible for a new one to see if it was the battery or the phone that was the problem. I first tried the new battery in my old phone, and still got a precipitous drop in battery. Then I put the new battery in the new phone and here's the results from this morning: -...

    Battery Percentage drop per minute

    Running nothing other than the basic apps, at what rate does your battery drop when you use your phone for calls? I just ran a couple of calls and calculated that my battery drains .5%/min. At that rate, I get 200 talk time minutes on the phone. Don't know what I'm doing wrong, because the...

    This morning I took an Iphone 3gs and wanted to test it against my HTC Incredible, which is having major battery problems. My inc has been cycled at least 10 times, and the battery is still terrible. I have "always-on mobile network" unchecked. Here are the results: Within 10 minutes of...

    Help Screen lock w/Exchange server

    My Inc is hooked up to my Exchange account, which requires a password to be entered after a certain amount of time has elapsed (no longer than 10 minutes). The problem I'm having is that if I set the Inc's "screen timeout" to the maximum allowed (10 minutes), my bright screen stays on the...
