    Help The Unofficial My Incredible is a POS thread!

    I don't know about you guys, but I'm fed up! From the random reboots (even after complete wipe/ restore) to low disk space to my touch screen deciding to take control (it would swipe itself all the way to the left on the home screen) to extremely shitty battery life to the HTC stickers...

    Before you flame, please read on to understand my bold statement! So last night, I went to a concert at the House of Blues in Cleveland. One of my favorite bands, 30 Second to Mars, was playing. Anyways, as the concert goes on, the lead singer (Jared Leto) was looking to bring some people on...

    Incredible, we're through. Android, you may be next...

    Turns out that people would rather flame me for what I had posted than actually help me figure this out. To keep things short and simple, I have had a lot of hardware issues with my incredible. I don't know whether or not it's just my device but I haven't had a good experience with it...

    Help Red/Pink Hue fixed yet?

    For those of you who have recently purchased an Incredible, have you noticed a pink or red hue in your screen? To see if it's red/pink, turn your brightness all the way down and it should be fairly obvious if it has it. Also, please post your manufacture date if you do not have the hue issue.

    Hello, I was just wondering if any of you know where I could purchase an armband case for my HTC incredible? I would like to use some of the new running apps but I want an armband for it! I would like to still be able to access and view the touch screen while it's on my arm!

    Battery issues. Go to best buy or Verizon?

    Well, as many of you know, the battery on the Incredible sucks. Mine is worse than most. My friend and I go to the same school and take our phones off the charger at nearly the same time. I keep my brightness low, turn off wifi, gps, bluetooth, mobile network, etc. I used to use Advanced task...

    Help Incredible touch sensor beyond the display?

    Hello, I was just messing around with my Incredible and I noticed when I drag the slider down to unlock the phone, if you do it slowly, you can pull it down until your finger is totally off the screen and in the black and the touch sensor is still picking up your finger! Give it a shot and let...

    Help Variations in Screen Hues?

    So my friend and I both got the Dinc on April 29th from Best buy. We were at a bonfire, looking at our phones screen brightness. When I put my brightness all the way down, the picture appeared to have a red hue compared to his phone. I must note that my battery was rather low (below 14%) and his...

    Droid Incredible LED flashlight!

    I would simply like to be able to toggle the flash on or off on the back and be able to keep it on. That's it. Basically make something like droidlight that is compatible with the HTC Incredible. I can't imagine it'd be difficult!

    HTC Sync and the Incredible

    Has anyone with the Incredible already tried this? Any cool features or tips you'd like to share? I'm curious of how the tethering works (as described in the manual)

    Accessories Incredible case to hide the ridges?

    Hello, I was just wondering if any manufacturers are making cases that fit the ridges and make the back either curved or flat? I'm not a big fan of the ridges, however, haven't seen them in person yet. Also, no rubber cases. I hate getting dust and lint stuck all over them!

    ATTN Early Incredible Owners! Tethering via HTC Sync?

    So we all read this in the HTC Incredible Manual that the HTC Sync software would allow you to use tethering with your phone! My question is, can you do this for free or must you have signed up for Verizon's tethering plan. I already know there are various apps out there such as PDAnet where you...

    Activation question!

    If I were to buy the Incredible online from Verizon, do I still have to pay $35 to activate my phone? (I'm going to upgrade from my dumbphone, it's not NE2 though.) If I preorder it through Best Buy in store, do I have to let them activate it for $35 or can I take it home and do it myself...

    This is cruel Google. Just cruel.

    So I've been patiently waiting (and mashing F5 on google.com/phone) for the Verizon Nexus One to come out. Of course as I'm browsing the web I get hit with this! http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/8938/omgggggggg.png Thanks Google, thanks. :p

    Verizon Nexus One Launch Window?

    Well I decided to make a few calculations as to when we should see the Verizon Nexus One. It took 22 days after the FCC filing for the T-mo N1 to hit the shelves. It took 46 days after the FCC filing for the AT&T/Rogers N1 to hit shelves. We've already passed the 22 days so I'm just leaving...

    Verizon Nexus One to be subsidized?

    What do you think? We recently saw Google offer the Nexus One to AT&T customers, however without it being subsidized. Personally, I think since Verizon has been confirmed to have the phone ever since the announcement of the phone that you will be able to buy it subsidized.
