HTC Incredible 4g LTE

Excuse me, but where is the discussion forum for the HTC Droid Incredible 4g LTE? I upgraded to this phone back in June. Is there no one buying this phone? I know there's basically no community development on it, because the ******** at Verizon Wireless re-locked the bootloader, even though they initially allowed it to be unlocked. What gives? Does no one care about this phone?
I feel like Verizon Wireless has a severe lemon on their hands with this phone. Granted, spec-wise, it's not that horrible, but there are definitely issues with this handset. Where the heck is the community for this phone? I feel very alone having chosen this phone as my upgrade to the original HTC Incredible...

HTC Incredible 4g LTE - SIM card needed

Hello - I have an HTC Incredible 4g LTE, I need a SIM card. How do I go about obtaining one?
Thanks

Visit your local Verizon Wireless corporate store or call customer service at 1-800-922-0204 or *611 to request one or you can request online during the "Switch/activate device" process in your MyVerizon account.

HTC Incredible 4G LTE will not Power Up!

     I have had this phone since July 2012. Sometime around August 2013 I started having trouble with the phone turning off randomly. This phone has NEVER been dropped or gotten wet. In fact, I baby it since I dropped my old Blackberry and shattered the screen. I bought a protective case and screen cover for the HTC. Shortly after it began randomly turning off it would no longer charge using the Mini-USB Charge Port. I bought two replacement batteries that came with an external charger. Using the external charger, the phone worked for a short time. After about two weeks I had the same Shut Off problem again until I rigged it by leaving off the battery cover and sticking a penny in there to make sure the battery was making good contact with the phone's points. I figured maybe it had a bad/loose connection. Although it was very inconvenient, it worked for about two months (if I laid it on the table) and allowed me to save my pictures at least. Then one day it just would not turn on anymore, even using my penny "trick". I am sure the two 3rd party batteries and HTC battery is good because when I put them on the charger for a few hours the light turns from red to blue, indicating a full charge.
     Since Verizon Customer Support could not help me other than suggesting I spend $400 on a replacement, I am about to replace the Mini-USB Charging Port to see if this works. I am trying this because it doesn't register any power at all with the battery or the cord plugged in. I would rather try a $2to $3 fix than a $400-$600 replacement. Has anybody else tried this? Are there any Repair Manuals available or Parts Lists? I am about to remove and replace the Mini-USB Charging Port from the phone using a YouTube Video for guidance. Although the video is for an Incredible 2 there are only minor differences. I found a replacement Port that requires soldering on the internet for under $2. The whole piece with ribbon and screw mount that doesn't involve soldering is available for under $3. Before I open the phone, order the part, and get out the soldering iron I want to make sure there are no known issues or fixes. At what point is HTC responsible for selling a faulty product?
     I notice there are multiple posts about the HTC Incredibles' power problem with no answers other than, "Try a Hard Reset" or "Delete the last app you installed" by VZW Staff. Then the topic gets Locked for some reason! One post had over 10,000 views! As other people have replied, you can't reset or delete what you cant Power On.
     Does anybody have any suggestions other than a Class Action Suit? My "New Every Two" isn't up until July 2014, I've been using an old LG flipper for a few months and it is very annoying considering the amount of texts I send! I've been with Verizon for over ten years now and I am unable to find ANY loyalty from Verizon! I can get no love even though it's well over $10,000 I have spent with this company! Makes me think a little harder on where MY loyalties lie.

Did you ever get your phone to power on? I've had this issue off and on for months. Of course Verizon cannot help. What is the trick to get the phone to charge and come back on? The battery is new and the phone was working fine as long as I did not allow it to die, but it died today before I could place it on the charger. And as always, it hasn't come back on.

HTC Incredible 4G lte screen going crazy

The screen randomly starts doing all kinds of things by itself. It acts like someone is typing on the keypad for no apparent reason, or starts zooming, going to different pages, changing settings. Sometimes the screen locks up. Sometimes the sliding ring is unresponsive.
I have found that usually pressing the lock button and starting over will usually correct it temporarily, but almost always comes back.
I have tried a battery pull, I have done the screen clibration, I have done the soft reset, does not seem to matter.

I want you to gain the most reliable performance from your device 1197st! I can appreciate why this performance would be frustrating. When did this start? Was there something that changed with a particular app, function or setting? Does the device respond at all when you power cycle it or pull the battery or do the problems continue right away?

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

HTC Incredible and future 4G network

Does any one know if the HTC Incredible will be compatible when Verizon's network upgrades to 4G?
Verizon has been installing fiber optic equipment in their cell sites, I think 4G is coming soon.

4G won't be for use on phones for 2 more years at the earliest and it won't be practically viable for 3. It doesn't look like Verizon is going to worry about any intermediary systems like Wimax as Sprint did or HSPA+ like TMobile did (I think AT&T is still considering an HSPA+ system but as far as I know isn't committed to it yet). We would be on a Wimax system if we did go to an intermediary because it is a sort of expanded CDMA. I imagine that Verizon being fairly comfortable right now on top and not likely to fall too far in the next 2-3 years is pretty comfortable with having a good stable fast 3G network that covers more area than any one else and is going to spend most of their system upgrade money on pushing LTE out here as quickly as possible while everyone else wastes money on intermediary technologies that so far are proving somewhat lackluster.
All that being said no the Incredible will not be able to take advantage of LTE or even Wimax should they for some reason decide to go that route. 3G will be supported probably for atleast another 5 to 10 years after that as probably will 2G. Considering LTE is a considerably different technology I would wager probably more like 5 than 10 but it will depend on how long it will take for people to get rid of their older tech for newer. I know people with borderline antique cell phones still operating. One girl I know has a phone that can't send or recieve texts. I barely remember the last phone I had that couldn't do that or even when that was last an option. I felt like asking if she realized how often free phones were available.
So they will keep the system up for a while for late adopters but in all reality by the time you are replacing your incredible you probably still won't have an LTE option. According to the current official timeline LTE will be available for smartphones first around the end of 2012 and only in major cities. Late 2013 - Early 2014 for full blanketing. Expect slightly longer time than that because of equipment shortages, and unexpected pitfalls. We will all probably have at least one more phone on our new every 2 before whether or not it supports LTE is even a concern.
OK I take it back your next phone will probably be LTE. By the end of this year they expect to have LTE rolled out to major cities. The plan is by the end of this year to have modems running LTE on the network. By early 2012 they plan to have doubled their coverage and start rolling phones out and they will effectively blanket the country by 2013. So yeah hopefully your next smartphone will be LTE and we will be living it up. Probably by then X86 chips will be the norm maybe even AMD will get in on the game and we will have 2Ghz phones or so, possibly even multicore.

HTC incredible won't boot

When I power on the start-up graphics appear, but the phone does not boot. Also, I see no sim inside the case. Please advise.

The original HTC Droid Incredible, Droid Incredible 2 or the Droid Incredible 4G LTE model?
Is the battery fully charged?

Verizon, why is HTC Incredible such an awful device?

Hey Verizon,
I wonder if you actively read/censor these forums because here is my question:
Why do you continue to sell/support awful phones such as the HTC Incredible?
I'm on my 2nd Incredible which is properly updated, yadda yadda yadda. It still suffers from common issues that YOU DENY exist. I'm on my second replacement phone (due to a reboot loop, which although was well documented in various parts of the internet you swear didn't exist) which now exhibits the same issues (only now it's out of warranty, convenient for you, yeah?). Of course, despite a multitude of internet posts, youtube videos showcasing the behavior, etc., you swear it doesn't exist. So my question to you is why do you continue to ally yourselves with such shoddy products/maufacturers?
Certainly you must expect that people will be upset when they purchase a device that doesn't last the terms of your 2-year contract (I'm up in December, and you can bet I'm not continuing)? Certainly you must feel the financial letdown from folks cancelling after their 2-years are up and jumping ship to ATT, T-Mobile, Virgin, or (the really smart) deciding US wireless is a sham? I'm assuming this must hit your bottom line or your shareholders somehow?
I'm sure your average smartphone user doesn't want to remove his/her SD card periodically to prevent (temporarily) reboots, and doesn't want to factory reset their phone to get an OTA update that YOU KNOW is faulty. My phone rarely operates free of issue as a phone, free of issue as a camera, or free of issue as a smartphone. Of course yes, I know those problems that many people are having and have documented on these forums and others don't exist (in your minds at least) but humor me here.
Why do you continue to push devices you know are sub-par and you know won't last? What do you expect to gain?
Personally, I'm free from my 2-year contract (wish I could have had a phone that lasted that long) in about 60 days, which is a huge relief because I've grown tired of paying for 4G LTE service when the majority of the time I'm in 1X (not to mention your illegal data throttling on my Grandfathered "unlimited" account once I've hit the 2GB limit that I never agreed to. Breach of contract anyone?), at which point I'll be dropping your business forever. So, one account soon to be down, how is that business model working for you Verizon?
If you've made it this far (and if this post is miraculously not deleted) I urge you:
Consumer: drop these ******** as soon as you can.
Verizon: get in touch with me, you've got all my info. Lend me a phone that will work (a WORKING phone, one capable of sending/receiving calls without random reboots) until Dec 06th and after that I'll send it back to you along with my last payment and we'll never have to converse again.
If you're in a similar boat forum members, please chime in.
Thanks for your time.

My Incredible was lovely. Didn't have a single issue with it. Traded it in for a Moto Razr M and somehow I feel like I ditched an old faithful friend. My first Razr M crapped out and let me down. Had to exchange it for another one. Sure Verizon's expensive and their data allowances are meager, miniscule and paltry, but I can live with that for now. So everyone's experience is different. Sorry you've had issues with your Droid Inc.

HTC Incredible reboot fix that works and does NOT require hard reset

Like many of you unfortunate souls out there I have had my HTC Incredible go into a rebooting loop over the last month or so. The following recounts some observations and and a solution which appears to work.
First off, my son and I both have the same phone and software versions and apps. He does NOT get email on his phone because he does not want to. I do. His phone has NEVER rebooted. Mine has done so numerous times. My business partner also has the identical phone and software version, lives within 200 yards of me, and uses the email and has had numerous reboots and has gotten them even sooner than I saw them at first. My partner and I have set up email attachments and downloads to go to the SD card. So much for background info. Here is what I did to fix the problem followed by some other observations:
Open up the case of the phone and remove the battery
Remove the SD card from the phone.
Put it into an adapter that allows you to access files directly on your computer. In my case this was a Windows PC running Windows 7.
Mount the SD card in your computer and open up the browser to see the files on the SD card.
Look for a folder called ".Mail"
If your phone is like mine you will see hundreds of files, some of zero length. This was even though I had deleted most of the emails I received on my phone.
Proceed to directly delete any of the zero length files. For that matter, you may have other files like jpg's laying around of uncertain origin. I got rid of these and other strange files that seemed attached to no documents at all.
Remove the SD card and reinsert into your phone. Put the battery back in and the cover on then restart the phone. Your phone should run properly and you should not see any negative consequences from the files you deleted previously.
Some other observations relevant to this solution that bolsters my theory that this problem has something to do with the email application and also a problem with file system corruption on the SD card as a consequence of it.
I had previously seen the email application put some mail from a different account I was using into my main account. The files could not be deleted and even trying to do so would cause the mail app to force close.
My son has never seen the problem despite being in the same environment with the same phone and software. Relevant difference to me was that he was NOT using email and I was.
The email app clearly has bugs if it is leaving behind hundreds of files even if you delete the emails. Why? As a software engineer my first instinct would be to look to see if the file system locks were properly synchronized when the email app is writing to the flash file system. I am not conversant in Android OS programming nor the app code itself so this is speculative on my part. I would also look for a timeout on reboots if file system enumerations take too long. Lots of files on a system might trigger a premature timeout and reboot. Once again, this is speculative on my part but I sure wish I had the code to debug this myself.
These issues seem to coincide with a rapid rise in network traffic most likely because of the iPad 2/iPhone support by Verizon. I wonder if this additional traffic load on the network is opening up timing holes in the software because of backoff and retry intervals for certain apps. Once again I suspect the email app especially because it is vulnerable to network traffic issues as it tries to get email account updates.
I could be wrong about my theory as to why the problem is happening. My solution seems to work. As far as pulling the battery and putting it near your AC in the car, that did NOT work for me at all. Leaving the phone out of its protective case also had no effect. Only screwing with the files on the SD card mattered.
I hope this helps.

This problem has been seen for MONTHS now by people besides myself. My business partner is about to put a bullet in his phone because this has been happening for far longer than mine. I have little confidence in a fix anytime soon because this problem has been persistent for some time and there is a lot of denial in the field by Verizon. Verizon has to depend on HTC and Google besides themselves for fixes. How much would you like to wager on how this business relationship is working out? The first step in any solution is for a company to take some responsibility for it and so far no company has.

I've given up on the HTC Incredible

I thought maybe FROYO would make things better, but it didn't. The HTC Incredible was a super everything-else-but-a-phone smart phone. I just couldn't hear some folk who I talked to on the phone; they were usually on another cellphone. Sometimes words got dropped, or the sound quality as too shrill. All landline calls, and bluetooth earpiece managed calls, were excellent (although reception inside buildings was not terrific). But since most folks I know used cellphones, I couldn't take it anymore and had to give up. I used one of the other upgrade plans in my family plan to get a Samsung Fascinate. Its only has 2.1 but, as a phone, it is great. I have no regrets dumping the Incredible other than the money that I wasted. I even had to have the original Incredible I purchased replaced because of memory issues.
My RIM Blackberry Curve was probably the best phone I've ever owned, except that the internet experience was just awful. But as a phone, nothing was as good...even the Samsung.

I feel the same about my former Blackberry Bold and 8800. Blackberry knows/knew how to build a good solid handset.

Bridge CS5 doesn't recognize my HTC Incredible 2 smartphone.

When I configure my HTC Incredible 2 smartphone to connect to my Windows 7 OS as another drive and plug it into a USB port, it recognizes the drive as a camera or card reader but produces the error message: "Failed to obtain thumbnails from the device. The device is not connected or is busy." The Get Photos button is also grayed out. When my smartphone is first connected to the PC it gives me an option to install drivers and asks to insert disk, but I do not recall getting a driver disk with the phone and, when I visit the HTC web site, I have no idea what download might address this particular issue. The bottom line is that without Bridge's recognitioon, its features are unavailable and I can only copy and paste when I want to download photos. Would appreciate suggestions.

Thanks for your suggestions. Changing the JPG file association to Photoshop
and using Adobe Photo Downloader, which Bridge does, made no difference.
Still get the same error message about failing to load the thumbnails which
terminates the download process as far as Bridge is concerned. I also talked
to someone at HTC and it appears to be a third party driver issue; i.e.
There is no driver addressing the issue I raised. I can manipulate the phone
s photo gallery like any other disk, so rather than customizing in the
download process, it will just take another step or two for Bridge to do its
magic after download. Thanks again.

Transfer Footprints from HTC Eris to HTC Incredible 2

I switched from HTC Eris to HTC Incredible 2. I want to transfer my Footprints thumbnails and data to HTC Incredible 2. On the HTC Eris there is a folder on the SD card called .footprint that contains the footnotes.db file and folders for thumbnails and voices. The thumbnails for the footprints I have created are in the proper folder.
On the HTC Incredible 2, the footprints folder is on the SDcard as a subfolder of the .data folder. That folder has a footprints.db file and footprints.db-shm and a footprints.db-shm files in it. It also has "thumbnails" and "voices" folderswhere the pictures and dictated audio that are created with the app reside.
I have copied the HTC Eris .footnote folder over to the HTC Incredible 2 SDcard. The footprints application has a menu item to import pictures and data. The pictures have to be imported individually. While the pictures import and retain the address and GPS information, they display the current date and time, not the date and time when the footprint was orginally created. When you try to import a database, it says no database found.
I tried copying all of the Eris thumbnails into the Incredible 2's thumbnails folder and replacing the footprints.db on the Incredible 2 with the one from the Eris but the app would not display the existing footprint pictures and the app would no longer save and display footprints created even though the pictures taken were in the correct folder. I restored the Incredible 2's footprints.db and solved that problem.
If anyone has ideas, I would be interested to know. My guess is the Footnotes app on the Eris is a different version so the data is not transferable.

If I had to guess I would say that the issue is because of the different versions of Sense, I have noticed that some of the old files stored from a HTC Sense application doesnt always work on the updated version..

How can I connect, via blootooth, my HTC incredible-S mobil to my ipad MC705 KN. I gets the answer: "is not supported"

blluetooth does not support data transfer. It's largely for the connection of speakers or keyboards.

Can we please hear from Management on the HTC EVO 4G LTE Status

I am starting this post as a hope to actually get some sort of status update on the HTC EVO 4G LTE release.
I think I speak for the techno philes out there that are waiting for and pre ordered the device. Back on the 17th we were disappointed with the information of the delay. As with most of the techno philes in the world I have been following the news and blogs surrounding this situation.
On Sunday we were greeted by the news that customs had released some of the devices, and than the news that Sprint would be shipping the phones by May 24th. Than in one blog I saw this statement which concerned me.
"So if you have ordered it outside of Sprint such as at Best Buy or Amazon, you will probably have to wait a few more weeks before you get your hands on your HTC Evo 4G LTE." the droid guy, http://thedroidguy.com/2012/05/sprints-htc-evo-4g-lte-coming-to-pre-order-customers-on-may-24th/
I think we would all appreciate some sort of statement from Best Buy. Some information with anything would be better than living in a vacuum of information.
Those that have pre ordered through Best Buy, and read this forum are loyal and avid Best Buy customers and to be honest I think we deserve some information.
I don't mean to rude or short, but if it is true that direct Sprint customers receive their phones this week and we are left waiting days or even weeks for the device, something needs to be rethought.
Again this is a plea for information more than anything.

I don't think they know... I am betting HTC had the Sprint shipments move to the front of the line and they got the first batches of phones that cleared customs... I read somewhere that they test one phone from every box/case shipped in before clearing them. All I know is my preorder with Best Buy still says back ordered and the preauthorization on my credit card is gone now (but those usually go away in 10 days anyway) but since Sprint isn't taking any more orders right now and no one else has them in stock all you can do is WAIT.... Sucks but I bet no one at Best Buy knows a true date and they don't want people to start canceling...

R.I.P Desktop Charging Cradle for the HTC Incredible

Verizon, Is this true???
http://htcpedia.com/news/htc-incredible-desktop-charging-cradle.html
People want a desktop charging cradle for their phones. Why can one not be produced? A lot of us purchased the phones under the assumption that a dock was being produced. Are you going to allow Incredible owners to exchange their device for Droid X's? You can't get any manufacture to produce a dock that can charge? I really don't think people care THAT much if the home screen doesn't auto rotate. If the clock application is launched it works fine in landscape or you mean a dock that works in portrait isn't possible?????

no doubt!!!! check this one for another device:
http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.asp?divid=HTC&cat=Cradles&skuno=80604
how difficult would it really be for them to just place the micro usb plug slightly lower to fit the inc? i love this cradle if the could duplicate it to fit the inc. it can't be that tough to do. and with minor tweaks you could lay it on it's side for landscape. it would be perfect....postrait AND landscape AND it has a slot underneath for an extra battery. the manufaturer would have a gold mine because they'd be the ONLY ones with anything to sell us!!!!
