    Distinctive ring back

    Does anyone know if its possible to have the distinctive ring feature removed from a Verizon line? What I mean by this, is the tone someone would hear immediately after the ring while calling me if I'm on the line with someone else. I attempted to have a csr rep remove the feature. It was...

    Help sync contact images w/ gtalk

    By far one of the most frustrating parts of android is getting your phone book just the way you want it. For me it is, anyway. I've finally realized that it is much easier to NEVER allow Facebook OR Google+ to sync contacts. At the moment, only my contacts that use gtalk have a picture...

    Google OEM Battery Door

    This phone has been out since December. Has anyone made an OEM Google battery door to fit with the Verizon model? I haven't seen one and surprised I haven't yet. EDIT: I meant to post this in the Verizon section. MOD's feel free to move.

    Google Wallet (extra $5)

    Am i the only one thats kind of bent out of shape for not receiving the additional $5 for the provisioning errors they were having a couple weeks ago? I mean, my wife and I actually use the service (and did have trouble adding funds during that time). It seems like even the people that never...

    Help CRT screen on

    I wasn't able to find an option for the CRT screen-on animation. It always does it when the screen goes down, but is there an option to enable this for screen-on with the stock ROM?

    $249 price tag

    So It's $249 for an upgrade to the Galaxy Nexus. I still can't bring myself to want to purchase a phone for that kind of money, especially when I bought my Incredible for $100 (w/ my new every 2 discount). I see that they're cheaper from Amazon and other 3rd party websites but I'd have to...

    Root One clockwork recovery image between phones

    I'm waiting for my wife's new Incredible to come in the mail from Asurion. I'm wondering if I could save some time by taking her existing nandroid backup and applying it onto the new phone. Would there be any problems with this or is that nand backup signed for that one phone only. Any issues...

    [International / GSM] Rooting and OTA's

    One thing doesnt make much sense to me, please correct me if I'm wrong... I know that the Nexus devices are always the first to receive updates, but wouldn't rooting the device prevent the OTA from taking place? Or is it not like the others? If this is the case, I could foresee alot of...

    Anyone else kind of disappointed?

    I was really looking forward to a stock android device on VZW. I just can't get over the new look. I am a huge fan of stock gingerbread, especially on the nexus S, but I'm not quite sure i'm on board with the new phone. The phone is beautiful, maybe I'll just get the phone and put 2.3.7 on it ;)...

    Considering switching carriers

    My primary reason for considering looking at other carriers would be if Verizon decides not to release the Nexus Prime on their network. The current selection of Android phones as of recently has not really grabbed my attention. I've currently owned an HTC Incredible since day -1 and have been...

    Root fully functional ROM's

    I've been browsing XDA and android forums looking for a fully functional ROM for every day use. It's for my friends phone that we plan on rooting for him. Most of the rom's i found do not have MMS working. I was mostly interested in JT's AOSP Vanilla ROM. I personally have an HTC INC so the...

    Root Questions before flashing CM7

    I'm interested in the new CM7 Gingerbread rom. Before I take the leap into this ROM, I had a couple questions... 1) Where can I find the most up to date version of this? I'm seeing links for RC2 etc. Are we up to RC3? 2) Is it necessary to flash a new kernel with this ROM? I've never...

    Root Replace battery icon

    Is there a way to replace the battery icon on my status bar to show the percentage in the middle? I am running no custom roms, but is there a way to metamorph a file, or even push a file into recovery to make it happen?

    Root Clockwork recovery images

    So every time I back up my system using clock work, I can see the previous back up's dated and timestamped in case I ever wanted to go back further. I'm sure that this is taking up space on my phone, is there any way to delete old recovery images? Also on average how much does each recovery take...

    I know there is a way to edit the HTC "swipe down" lock screen. I don't run any custom roms and would like to change my lockscreen without doing that. I've used widget locker but i would prefer to keep the swipe down method. Are there any how to's to edit the framework APK etc? Last time I toyed...

    Root Not receiving November update

    So in preperation for the November OTA update, I've unrooted my wife's incredible back to stock form (s-on etc.). When she is prompted for the OTA to install, it says it will reboot in 10 seconds, counts down and does nothing. This has been happening for a few weeks now. With everything back...

    Facebook Uploads

    When I upload photo's from the mobile app or even from my gallery, they never publish to my wall. They used to, but not anymore. They just end up in Mobile Uploads. Is this maybe from the new Facebook update or is it something in the phone? Facebook 1.4.1 HTC Droid Incredible running Android 2.2
