Hey everyone,
I am a new member here, just joined a few days ago.
I've had my HTC Incredible (Verizon) for about 2-3 weeks and so far I love it.
I've been reading these forums every day, multiple times a day ever since I joined here a few days ago, but haven't posted anything yet.
I remember the first day I joined here I saw a thread that was discussing a custom Froyo ROM that you could install on your phone that would NOT root your phone.
However, I also saw one that allowed free hotspot tethering, that didn't accrue any charges from Verizon Wireless, unless I am mistaken, but I beleive I did read that someone where on here.
I'm not looking for someone to walk me through how to install, or root the phone or anything like that, I understand all the inns and outs of doing that.....I provide PC technical support for a living, working on my B.S. degree in Computer Science, so I'm pretty fluent in the technical aspects of working the phone and rooting and all of that, I was just trying to have someone point me in the right direction to the Foryo update.zip/rom that you could install on your phone that would do the following two options:
1. I would prefer the version that doesn't root the phone, but instead just installs, if I have to end up rooting the phone that's fine, I would just prefer not to only because of possibly voiding the warranty, not because I'm afraid of screwing it up haha, I feel perfectly comfortable doing it if I must.
2. I read one of these allowed free hotspot tethering and also got rid of Verizon's bloatware as well, I don't know if all of these are found all in one custom rom, but if they are that would be great if you could point me in the direction where I can download it at.
I would prefer 2 over 1, so if I can get the features of 2, but still have to root the phone to do it, I will if need be.
I apologize if I didn't look hard enough in your forums to find it,
However, I did a forum search with the terms "froyo ruu hotspot" and other variations to see if I could find it and didn't have any luck, though I didn't have enough time to do a thorough search as I am currently at work and my time is limited here, typing this over my lunch break.
I appreciate any help anyone can be, glad to be here, seems like an awesome place. Thanks.
