Droid incredible 2 manual

i just got this droid incredible 2 and i am a **bleep**..how do you download a manual? how do you sign up for text? this thing confuses the heck out of me..i will check with my 12-year old grandson when he gets here for christmas....i am pretty much lost....they did enough at the bestbuy store, but when i try to get apps, etc.....i am in a sea of confusion.....help!!!

Good afternoon joe1943.
I know Smartphones can be challenging when brand new. Especially if you've never had one before, but I can certainly help!
When you activated your Incredible 2, did you set it up? Sign in or create a Google account? If you haven't, this may be why downloading apps is a bit more difficult. Do you have a text messaging plan? If not, you can add one via My Verizon. You can select Change Features under Plan, toward the bottom of the page if you are signed in as the Account Owner. There are 3 different options for assistance with your new device!
You can view the online simulator at the following link: Droid Incredible 2 Online Simulator
You can download the manual at this link: Droid Incredible 2 User Manual
You can also sign up for one of our workshops: Wireless Workshops
If you still need assistance, please send me a Private Message and I will be happy to personally help you!
Thank you,

Manually Install Froyo 2.2 on Droid Incredible

Hello all!
Didn't get your update OTA yet? Do it yourself!
How to Manually Install Android 2.2 Froyo On Your Verizon Droid Incredible
I just did it and it was easy! Enjoy

Ok... so for those few on this thread who have installed it... I have a couple of newbie questions.
1. How do you know you have the 2.2 update? The only thing I can think of is to go into the camera and check for the 720p thing.
Go to menu -> settings -> about phone -> software // That'll give you the version
2. What all did you get on the update? Hotspot? 720p HD video capability? What? Anything else?
Pretty icons, city ID that never stops, Skype mobile whether you want it or not, the ability to rotate the screen to the right now instead of just the left. Seriously, not a lot. Definitely nothing for people to ose sleep over. *edit** I forgot one important thing - I hear that it also enables bluetooth voice dialing. I haven't tried it yet. If this is true, then I would say that the update gets a definite +1. This is a feature that, even though I rarely need it, should be standard on every phone in existence.
3. What exactly is the "root" folder it talks about when doing it manually? And is it safe to do it this way? Especially off of some site.
The root of the SDcard just means to put the downloaded file on your sd card, but NOT in a folder. Just drop it on there, all by it's lonesome. It has nothing to do with "rooting" your phone, in case you were curious. That's an entirely different animal.
Hope that helps a bit! Enjoy.
Sorry for the newbie questions. Your help is appreciated.

When I plug my Droid Incredible 2 into a car charger the phone is now permanently in"Car Mode" and won't get out. I heard that Droid will fix this, but it hasn't happened. Does anyone know how to fix i

I have a Droid Incredible 2 phone. I bought car charger and ever since I have used it, the phone thinks it is in "car mode" even when the phone is in my home, my purse,...I sets to speaker and I can not hear the phone ring. It freezes on "car mode". I heard that Droid is supposed to be fixing the problem, but nothing has happened yet. Is anyone else having this problem, and does anyone at Verizon know when/if this will be fixed. If not, I expect a new phone from Verizon.

there are two ways, usually if u restart the phone it will reset, but the other is going to your system and shut it off manually...

Connecting my Droid Incredible to my laptop

I am trying to get my Droid Incredible to connect to my laptop so I can pull the pictures off of the phone and SD card but I cant get my laptop to recognize my phone is connected. I tried downloading the VCast Media Manager but that doesnt help. My phone shows up on the left side of the screen for a second then disappears. If I go into file manager within windows it doesnt show my phone is connected either even though the screen on my phone says its connected via the USB symbol and mounted as a disk drive. Can someone please help me figure this out?

Thank you to demmo86rt and budone for your contributions. I have provided additional instructions from page 44-47 of your owner’s manual on how to connect your phone to you laptop computer. I have also provided a link below that will take you directly to your online manual.

Connecting your phone to a computer
Whenever you connect your phone to a computer using the USB cable, the Connect to PC dialog box displays and prompts you to choose the type of USB connection. Select one of the following choices, and then tap Done:
Charge only
Select this mode if you only want to charge the phone’s battery using your computer.
HTC Sync
When selected, the phone automatically uses HTC Sync when connected to your computer and lets you synchronize Outlook and Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), contacts and calendar events between your computer and your phone. For more information, see “Using HTC Sync” in the Accounts and sync chapter.
Disk drive
This mode is available only when you have installed a microSD card on your phone. Select this mode when you want to use your storage card as a USB thumb drive, and copy files between your phone’s storage card and your computer.
When Disk Drive mode is enabled while your phone is connected to the computer, you will not be able to run applications that use the storage card, such as Music or Gallery. For more information, see “Copying files to and from the storage card” in this chapter.
Mobile Broadband Connect
When you do not have Internet connection on your computer, you can select this mode to share your phone’s mobile data connection with your computer. For more information, see “Using Your Phone as a Modem” in the Internet chapter.
If you do not want to show the Connect to PC dialog box everytime you connect the phone to the computer, select the Don’t ask me again checkbox in the Connect to PC dialog box. The default connection type will be used when you connect the phone to the computer.
To check or change the default connection type and to show or hide the Connect to PC dialog box, press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Connect to PC.
Copying files to and from the storage card
Connect the phone to your computer using the supplied USB cable.
When the Connect to PC dialog box appears, tap Disk drive, and then tap Done.
On your computer, the connected phone is recognized as a removable disk. Navigate to this removable disk and open it.
Do one of the following:
Copy the files from the computer to the phone’s storage card’s root folder.
Copy the files from the phone’s storage card to a folder in your computer or computer desktop.
5. After copying the files, unmount the removable disk (that is, the connected phone) as required by your computer’s operating system to safely remove your phone.
6. Do one of the following:
Disconnect the phone from the computer.
If you want to keep the phone connected to the computer but want the phone to be able to access the storage card, open the Notifications panel, tap Disk drive, select an option except Disk drive, and then tap Done. See “Opening the Notifications panel” in this chapter to learn how to open the Notifications panel.

Incoming AOL emails on droid incredible

Beginning one week ago, I have been unable to receive any incoming aol emails to my droid incredible.
I can send emails with no problem, but no incoming emails appear. Sometimes I get a "login failed" or a "network error" message, sometimes I do not. My husband has the same phone and also uses aol on his phone. He has not encountered this problem, he can still receive aol emails to his phone. I have deleted the account from my phone and reinstall it several times. My account settings are the same as the settings that my husband uses on his phone.
I have had the phone since early October and this is the first time that I have had any type of problem. Email has been working great up to this point.
I also have a gmail account set-up on my phone and I have no problems with gmail.
Any ideas? Thanks!

The best thing to do will be to go into the account menu and delete the account to make sure we set it up with the correct server information. The steps to delete the account are listed below:
Menu
My Accounts
Menu
Remove Account
Choose the AOL Account
Once you have done this we can re-add the account with the manual setup. The steps to do this are below:
Locate and Select the Mail icon from your Applications Menu. You will see a place to enter your Username and Password.
After entering your full email and password, select Manual Setup. You should now be on the Incoming Server page.
Locate the drop down box at the top that typically displays "POP3" by default. Touch and change the selection to IMAP.
In the Incoming Server box, change the entry so that it displays "imap.aol.com". Nothing else should need editing; Select Next.
You are not on the Outgoing server page. Change the Outgoing server box so that the entry displays "smtp.aol.com". Nothing else should need editing; Select Next.
Assuming everything went through with success, you will now be prompted to choose display/account names for the email. If you are planning on setting up multiple emails, then label so that you can differentiate this one from the others.
Once you have done this it will begin to receive emails with 15 minutes.

Droid Incredible HotSpot shows iPad connected, but iPad doesn't connect to internet

I recently started experiencing issues with connecting my iPad to the internet via the hotspot connection on my Droid Incredible. It has worked pretty well, until this week. My 3G hotspot tethering screen shows that there is "1 connection", however, my iPad isn't recognizing the wifi connection. Since this issue with my phone, I have been able to connect my iPad with 3 other wifi networks--two were public, one was residential. So, that rules out there being an issue with the iPad's connectivity capability.
My phone's current hotspot security setting is:
WPA2 (AES)
Is there a DNS # that needs to be included in the wifi preferences screen on my iPad when connecting? Is there an update to the hotspot that I need to download?
Please help!
Thanks!

If I understand correctly, your hotspot WiFi network is not displayed on your iPad as an available option? You shouldn't have to add/change any settings if it was working before. Try this from your ipad:
Reset network settings by selecting Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will reset all network settings, including passwords for other saved WiFi connections.
Restart the ipad. Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.
If the hotspot is still not appearing, you can manually add the connection by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi > Other and entering the Wi-Fi network name, security, and password. You can get the WiFi information from your mobile hotspot settings menu.
If this doesn't resolve the problem, you can call Apple at 800-275-2273 or troubleshoot here:

Hope this helps

Droid Incredible Won't Activate

I've been trying to switch my phone from a Droid 2 to a Droid Incredible while in Extended Network. When I go to call *228, a US cellular message comes up and then "Programming Unsuccessful". Now I don't have service on either of my phones. How do I go about this?

Verizon Wireless phones won't activate in an extended coverage area. You need to go to a native Verizon Wireless coverage area to activate the phone.
You might be able to activate it manually, but you would need the assistance of customer service on another phone or someone who is knowledgeable about the manual programming method. budone

Droid Incredible - Media Bluetooth Connection

I have a 2011 Hyundai Sonata and a Droid Incredible. I can get the call functionality to work fine but the media will not play through the speakers. Anyone know why or what I can do to fix this?

You might want to check your owner's manual and see if it gives any info on what BT Profiles your car's BT supports. To get music through your speakers, it must support A2DP (stereo) profile as well as the HSP (handset) and HFP (handsfree) profiles that it obviously does if you can make and recieve phone calls.

How to create unique notification sounds for email on Droid Incredible 4G LTE

I have three separate email accounts pushed to my Droid Incredible 4G LTE. I can't for the life of me figure out how to set up unique notification sounds for each email account. It was a snap to do on my old Blackberry.
Same question for flagging individuals within my contact list. (E.g., if my wife calls it makes one sound, if a client calls it makes a different sound.)
Does anyone know how to do this, or, as they say, is there an app for that???
Thanks in advance!

I don't think you can on the email but got to each contact and edit them for different sounds, I'm not sure if it works on that new phone that way but as they don't have a dedicated room yet for it you had nowhere else to ask htc has good forums also

How can I get music I purchased though Amazon on my Android device(droid incredible) to my IPad 2 without using a computer?

I just got an iPad 2 a couple months ago, and I'm very eager to get my music collection purchased from Amazon to my device. I have had to get a replacement droid incredible and lost my login information for both my email and my amazon account. I have the music files stored on the SD card on my phone. I have the basic iPad 2, 16 GB, wifi, no 3G. I got an iPad to essentially replace my computer since it can't hold a charge anymore. I am almost due for an update with Verizon, so I would like to get an IPhone. However if I can't transfer my 100s of dollars worth of music, I'll have to suck it up and stick with android and be unable to have more than the 3 songs I have on my iPad.
If any one can help It would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds as if you have a computer but it won't hold a charge. Does it not work if it's plugged in at home? If so, you can simply transfer the music to your computer at home. You can either do this by connecting your Incredible to the computer and dragging the music from the SD card to iTunes or, you can contact Amazon and get your password reset and just download the music.

Droid Incredible 2 won't turn on or charge.

I have had this problem before, right after I got the DINC2. Yesterday, I wanted to take out my memory card to save pictures on my computer via a usb card reader. I turned my phone off by pressing the power button and selecting power off. I removed my battery, and then removed the memory card. After transferring my pictures, I placed the memory card back in the DINC2, and placed the battery and cover back on the device. I pushed the power button, and NOTHING. The phone won't turn on. I plugged it in to the charger, and the amber light won't even come on. I thought it might be the charger, so I used the USB cord attached to the computer, and still no charging light. I have removed the battery overnight, and just let it set. When I reinstalled the battery this morning, still nothing. The charging light does not come on, and I can't power up the device.
I had this problem before. I had let the battery run down to nothing and the device powered itself off. Same scenario, the charge light would not come on when plugged into the charger, and I couldn't power up the device. I left the battery out overnight, and the next morning the device still wouldn't power on. I placed the phone in my car, and plugged in my car charger. After a few minutes, the amber light came on, and I was able to power up the device. This, however, did not work this time. Nothing I try helps.
Is this a common problem? How should I go about getting this resolved?
Thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,
It must be frustrating not being able to power your phone on. I checked my resources and this is not noted as a known issue with the Droid Incredible 2. Since you are not able to power on the phone, there is nothing we can troubleshoot by phone. I recommend to bring your device to a Verizon Wireless store for a hands on evaluation. You can find a Verizon Wireless store near you by entering your ZIP code at vzw.com/storelocator online.

Faulty touch screen for my Droid Incredible 2

I have a Droid Incredible 2, but I am having a tough time being positive about it. The lower edge of my touch screen has become non-responsive and/or finicky at random times. While on the desktop, I often can't get the "Phone" button to work. It is like the bottom edge of the touch screen shuts off. That is quite irritating, but it is not as irritating as it is after I actually get in to my phone. If I call someone and get an answering machine, I can't hang up. The "End Call" button doesn't work. This becomes bearable if I call someone and the person answers. It is bearable because the phone will let me out of the loop when he or she hangs up. However, not being able to hang up on an answering machine is quite irritating, especially if it is one that allows for an endless length message. I've found that powering off is the only way out of that predicament.
The touch screen has been a problem while in other programs, too. It is a pain when playing a game and not being able to do something because the touch screen gives out. In those situations, forcing the screen to black and re-dragging down to get it often allows me to keep going, but I don't think I should have to deal with that.
What am I to do? There is no recalibration for my touch screen. Is getting a replacement phone an option? Heck, I am not sure if I am even under warranty.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
-Brian

How and when did the screen went blank? Battery level? Using an specific application?
