Droid Incredible 2 - phone will not open, people will not open, etc.

Last week my Droid Incredible 2 started acting funny. First I can no longer open the phone tab to make a call. I also can not see my contacts through the people icon. When i get a message I also no longer see the photos and names, only the phone number. Everything else on the phone is working. I also receive an error which says "Google services framework (process com. google. process. gapps) Stopped unexpectedly". I have powered the phone off and let it sit then powered back on a few times this has not fixed the problem. I have the most current update. It seems like a software issue, but not sure how to fix it. Any help would be great! Thanks

Have you tried pulling the battery, letting the phone sit for half a minute, re-inserting the battery and restarting the phone? A battery pull does a soft reset and often solves problems like this.

Droid incredible 2: phone says that i need to insert an sd card

Ever since I got my replacement phone whenever I open up my camera or photos my phone will say that I need to insert an SD card. Problem is that I already put in my SD card so I've no idea why it's asking for it. Anyone know what's up with my phone?

I have gotten this to.
My theory is that is has something to do with the fact the my SD card came from a Fascinate and now I am using it in a Droid Incredible 2 and there may be some compatiability issues.
When I get that message, I do one of two things....restart the phone or pull the SD card and re-insert. One of them usually works and I have no issues after that.
My fear is that the correct solution is to reformat the SD card which would wipe it clean and I do not want to do that.
Yes, it's certainly possible that the card should be reformatted. But can you read it in a computer? If so, I would just copy all the contents off, reformat in the DINC2, then put the card in the computer and copy the contents back.

Droid Incredible - Terrible Phone

I'm really sad to say that the Droid Incredible has turned out to be a terrible phone. I loved it for almost 18 months, then I started having "problems". The problems I have been having started with the Google Navigation several months ago - this was my favorite feature of the phone. The phone shut down in the middle of navigation when I was a few turns from my destination. From there it has gotten steadily worse. I took it to the Verizon store a the beginning of December when it went into a reboot loop - i.e. it shut down, then rebooted to the "eye" screen, then shut down again and went on an endless loop. The nice people at the store did a factory reset for me. At the time I did not know this was a common problem with Droid Incredible. Now I know and have lost count of the number of factory resets I have done on the phone since early December - probably 8-10. I just did another one today. My phone has been usable for about 15 of the last 24 hours, but now my texting feature doesn't work at all. That is a new development in the failures of this phone. I have not used navigation in about 2 months because it reliably shuts my phone down. Yesterday the simple Google directions feature made my phone shut down, again just a few turns from my destination. Since early December I have probably had to reboot/restart my phone 30 or so times due to reboot loop. When this does not work, I do some kind of cache partition clearing, and when that does not work is when I have to do factory reset. I have searched these forums and see that the only recommendations Verizon has are to buy a new phone, buy a refurbished phone or next time buy insurance. This is the first time in about 10 years I have been truly disappointed by Verizon. The worst is when my phone is in a loop and nothing helps, I try to go online for support, but I can't get email support for that problem, they say I must call. I CAN NOT CALL FROM A BROKEN PHONE. I am planning on upgrading to the iPhone, but my full upgrade is not due until late April. I am trying to trudge through with this terrible phone until then, but it is becoming nearly impossible. It is simply unacceptable for a device that is supposed to be a contender to the highest rated smart phones to behave this way with no support and that the device does not last even a full 2 years. I do realize that this is mostly an HTC issue, not a Verizon issue, but that doesn't make me any less frustrated. It is also suspcious that there are no other posts on these issues here. I guess that would be bad for business. I am not a complainer, very seldom do I complain, but these major problems seem like they are being ignored or swept under the rug.

I agree with you100%. I got this phone from my grandmother because she recently upgraded to the bionic. when i got the phone the sd card was fine. it showed pictures well, i could unmount the card and everything was ok. well i put my sd card in, pictures came up fine. well, i had to do an update and the card wouldn't read anymore. so i called ts and they troubleshot the phone. factory reset idk how many times. they sent another one. same thing. seems like after the update it wouldn't work. i have went thru three of those phones and i have this phone. oh did i mention that the sd card that came out of the phone and the one i was using worked in any other droid, multi-media phone, computer, whatever I put it in.

Droid incredible 2 phone calls can't be answered

If my Android Incredible 2 is in the sleep mode and the screen has gone dark when a call comes in the slide answer feature does not work. It is a brand new phone so I have not uploaded apps (some internet posts claimed too many apps wrecked the answer function). I know slide down is answer and slide up is ignore but neither works. Please advise.
Thanks.

Hello Ann154,
This is highly unusual for this device since it's new to the market. Have you tried a factory reset on the device? If that doesn't resolve the issue, we may have to look into additional options. Please respond to this post if you decide to do so.

Droid X Answer phone and not hear anything. Need Help ASAP!!!

So last night I got a call and i went to answer it and it sounded as if I hadnt answered it at all, I could hear nothing. This has happened before and all I have to do is restart my phone and its usually fixed. The one thing different about this call is when the person called back they said that they had heard someone else on the phone, which has never happened before. I am in dire need of a way to fix this because this little slip up is about to cost me my relationship. I need to know if there is any possible explination to what happened, any help is appreciated thank you.

Nevermind its too late, thanks anyway for alteast taking a look at this post, but still if you have any info as to what could have happened it would stil be 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...

Cannot enable wifi on droid incredible

i just got my droid incredible today.
i have not been able to get my Wifi enabled. I go to Wi-Fi settings then click on Wi-Fi to turn it on and then it just says "error" after about 5 seconds. There are about 10 Wifi networks within range of me so I know thats not the problem.
any suggestions?

Once you turn it on you need to click on the option below, WiFi settings and choose an open network. If they are secured, you will need to enter the security key to log in.

DROID Incredible in a cycle of crashing

After doing a software upgrade on my DROID Incredible, my phone started crashing every once and a while. I took it to the Verizon store and they did a reset (not fully, because my apps and contacts were saved, but I can't give you more information than that because I'm very UN-tech savvy), and for a while it worked fine. Just recently it began crashing again, and today it got into a cycle of going through start-up and as soon as it got to the loading phone storage part it would restart. Currently it is stuck at the white htc incredible screen. I tried taking the battery out and putting it in again, but the phone just crashed again.
I wanted to save my files onto my computer, but my computer refuses to acknowledge the device.
Any suggestions of how to fix it, or do I just need to go to the store?
Thanks

I've been complaining to Verizon about the cycling problems since the last software upgrade. I will have me second replacement phone tomorrow. I'm not holding my breath to see if this helps as the common thread between the phones is the software.
They did say they could send me an "upgraded" phone @ no charge, I would only have to pay for the battery and back cover, for $50. I told them no way. You sent the software upgrade that caused the problems, I didn't ask for it. Unfortunately rolling back the software is not an option.
If this doesn't get resolved with out any out of pocket expense I'll likely be looking for another carrier.

Droid incredible front facing camera

How do I set up camera on my Droid Incredible HTC phone to take selfies? All I get is a blank screen

We want to get you seeing the whole picture, mackdaddy59. There aren't any special steps that are needed to set up the front camera. While you're in the camera application, tap Menu/Settings then Switch Camera to flip between the Main and Front cameras. Make sure it you're using a case on your phone that it's not covering the top section where the front facing camera is located on the Incredible 2 or Incredible 4G LTE. If you have the original Incredible, there was no front camera.

Droid Incredible reboot itself now full of errors!!

Hey all,My Droid Incredible rebooted itself yesterday. Now all apps force close and my bookmarks are all gone. I've tried the hard reset etc and its still doing it !! Has this happened to anyone else? There was an update a couple days ago so im guessing it that update causing all the problems.

Check this link :http://community.vzw.com/t5/DROID-Incredible-by-HTC/The-not-so-INCREDIBLE-HTC-Incredible-Reboot-Issue/td-p/191740
I have also had continuous reboot problems, removing the battery stops them, but then many of my apps get a force close message.

Help! My phone will not play sound when an app is open?!

Seemingly out of the blue, my iPhone stopped playing sound through the external speaker. This began about a month or two ago and I have been unable to fix the problem. The sound will play through the external speaker until I open another app (safari, camera, etc.). The sound used to work through headphones until this morning. Now the sound won't work... At all! I brought my phone to an apple store a week ago and the first guy checked my phone with a flashlight and told me first that there didn't seem to be any water damage. Then, some other technician helped me. He opened iTunes and miraculously, the song played! I couldn't believe it was magically working. He explained that it looked like my dock connector was looking a little eroded and that is why the sound doesn't work. He said he could try to brush it out and that should fix the problem. Tried my phone later... Volume doesn't work anymore! The dock connector works fine otherwise, I am still able to charge my phone. My phone will not play music via bluetooth speaker. I talked to multiple people on the phone who all seem to think it's a software problem... I am really not understanding what is going on with my phone! I have googled this problem many times in the last few months and most people say that it turned out to be a software issue. I have checked both water indicators (in the dock connector and the headphone plug, right?) with a flashlight and I don't see any red... Any insight or ways to fix this would be very appreciated! The whole thing makes no sense to me.

Are you using an APple charger or a thrid-party one? I ask because if you are using a third party charger, it may not be wired properly and it may be telling your iPhone that the cable connected is also an audio interface so your iPhone may be sending the audio signals through the cable to the charger. I have a charger in my truck that also doubles as an FM transmitter so I can play my iPhone audio through the truck radio. Your charger may be doing something similar, especially if it is not an Apple charger.

Droid Incredible 2 will not stay paired with 2011 Kia Optima

My Droid incredible 2 will not consistently stay paired with my 2011 Kia Optima Bluetooth. Usually, the Kia will connect with the phone and media audio for a few seconds and then the phone disconnects with the media audio staying connected. Also, when I do get the phone to connect to the Kia Optima, the car bluetooth cannot use the phone contact list to make calls and I I have to speak the phone numbers. Any suggestions as to what I need to do?

Its very frustrating to have Bluetooth pairing issues. I checked on the Kia website and the Incredible 2 is not listed as a compatible phone with their vehicles. Click here for their website to check phone compatibility. You may want to check with your dealership to see if they will be updating their vehicles with newer devices.
Thank you

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit
