Just FYI:

I placed an online pre-order Monday like most people. Yesterday the Credit Card I used for the pre-order was stolen. I canceled the card and quickly called Verizon to change card numbers because I didn't want to delay my shipment. The lady I talked to at first had trouble finding the order. She later found it and said she had to speak with someone that works with the internet orders because she couldn't change the card number on the order. So after being on hold for a while she came back and said that no one was able to update information on the pre-orders and I would just have to wait until I got a Credit Card declined notice via e-mail, I would then have to call them up and change the credit card number.

So if anyone wants to change cards, cancel their orders (yea right) or make any kind of changes, good luck! It seems that Verizon has locked down the Incredible pre-orders pretty tight. Just thought that this information may be useful to some.

Thanks!

This is noted right before you hit the submit button for your order that that no preorders can be cancelled. That does suck that your credit card got stolen and they won't let you cancel it or change it until notification.

For those who's status has changed from "order being processed check back in a few days", how long did it take?

I'm a bit concerned that I waited to long to pre-order, but I may just be over reacting.

I preordered at 11pm SUNDAY and mine still says that... unfortunately.

I encountered a similar issue concerning my NE2. I tried to cancel and redo my preorder, I was told that the preorder could not be cancelled.
 
So I know some people got "accidental" early shipments of their Incredible a couple days ago. I never got an email with a shipping number like they did, and just like many of you called 611 after seeing some photos of the phone to see if I could get mine early. They specifically told me my phone had NOT shipped, and that it wouldn't ship until the 28th. Further more, they told me because I ordered on the phone that I could not get overnight shipping (I tried to insist but they refused) so I'd likely get my phone the 30th....

Funny thing is, yesterday I got an email with a shipping number, and just a few min ago my PHONE ARRIVED!! I'm shocked. It's charging right now.

Thanks to everyone on this site for all the info and entertainment. I've been glued to this thread since December, and (no joke) have sat and read every post each night when I get home from work. I never posted much because I had no real info to add, but tried to put a "thanks" on the useful posts as I read. If there is any unconfirmed info or photos you guys want of the phone I'd be happy to pay the forum back now that my phone is in hand.

Has anyone else received shipping info/the phone after Verizon supposedly put the lock-down on the accidental early shipments??

So glad I waited for this phone....

Adobe has not yet finished Flash 10.1 for smartphones. It should be coming in 2010. Originally they were saying 1st half (before July), but not there's word it may be after July (2nd half).

actually adobe said they were misquoted on that and android phones will be updated to flash 10.1 in the 1st half of 2010 (the incredible was on their list of phones to update)

edit: adding a link since someone will ask :) http://androidandme.com/2010/04/news/correction-flash-10-1-for-android-still-on-track-for-1h-2010/
 
I was thinking we might be able to get the thread count to 1000 before the phone came out but doubting that will happen now. Possibly over 900 that would not be bad.

Dial #611 on your current verizon phone, press 4 for other options, then press 0 for the CSR. Once he or she gets on, tell them you want to order the Black w/ Red Gradient - VZW6300COVRDG Snap On cover.

I did it this morning and the cover is on it's way. Enjoy!

Would you know if one is better than the other outdoors?

Thanks

because of the glare you would receive from the crystal clear, the anti fingerprint might be the better choice. I will be buying both from SGP (clear and anti fingerprint) and I will use them both until I decide which I like better.

MUST BE NICE!:D Anyway when I pre-ordered mine it said free overnight shipping was including. I've been confused for days why everyone kept talking about the 'FREEOVERNT' code. I thought all new phones all shipped overnight for free. What am I missing here?
 
Couple of quick questions - if you can help me, wonderful, but if, not, no worries.

1) Would someone out there be able to steer me in the direction of the mammoth 200+ page Incredible owner's manual? I forgot what page it's on. :o

2) has anyone else out there who has pre-ordered their phone received any additional info (tracking info, phone availabilty) that ASSURES delivery on the 29th? Or is it just too early still?

Thanks for any input! :)

i think im going with the SGP anti fingerprint. My friend has it on his iphone and it really does not effect the screen color too much. Granite...thats not an amoled screen so we will see. Are SGPs out for the incredible yet tho?

Yeah - in the comment section they say it's available on the wirefly site - but it really isn't that i can find. Its a micro usb/composite video cable - an "optional accessory" . I haven't seen it available anywhere yet - perhaps post-launch we'll have more luck.

My question though - composite video great. what about the sound????

If hulu ever becomes available again, this would be really nice ;)

In the Launch package on the Evergreen page it shows a VZX6300TVOUT cable that should be available post launch. It looks like a 3.5mm to composite cable, though - not a micro USB. I don't understand why it's pictured as a 3.5mm cable, unless it's a generic place holder picture. There's no mention of video out in the User's Guide; I'd be very interested in knowing whether it will be through the 3.5 or the USB.
