i wish i knew this too but i just typed out all the apps i had beforehand and redownloaded em i got home
 
I can now join the rest of you who have received their wonderful Incredible phones. Just signed for it and already charging in less then 10 min.
 
I received my DI at work this afternoon, how long does it take to charge the first time? I am getting impatient. Yes, I know that it said aprox 4 hours… but I was hoping someone would tell me that it really doesn’t take that long… It is hard to concentrate on work as I keep staring at the red light, waiting for it to turn green.

The hardware can, it's android 2.1 that doesn't fully support it yet.

so purchasing a 32 would be safe to do as im sure it will have the capability of recognizing a 32 in the near future... im assuming it would only read it as a 16 if i do pop it in...

for those that have their new Incredible - is there anything that you DON'T like about the phone?

Previously used an iPhone, and couldn't wait for the Incredible. My mom always said, "If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything." So, here's the good:

This phone rocks. No lag running apps. Some lag while running background apps, downloading/installing a new app and scrolling thru an email. Amazing.

Colors are great, camera is great, good feel to the phone, not too bulky in my pocket. And I even have a choice of browsers.

And here's the bad:

Cheesy plastic backing for the battery cover/back-plate. Really? Seriously? It feels like it was made from a thinned-down tv-dinner tray.

The USB connection on the phone is not good at all. Definitely going to stop working over time, and I think we all know how frequently this phone needs to be charged. The cable feels like it is going to fall out when it is properly connected.

Battery life. Ouch. As someone mentioned, I had my BT off and was running the cell and wireless radios and you could almost literally watch the battery meter go down. That said, I live in an area with a weak cell signal, and I know the cell radio works overtime when it's searching for service.

Even so, this is hands-down the best phone I have ever owned. It's definitely leaps beyond the iPhone, in my opinion. And it's especiially suited to people interested in adjusting the slightest settings on their phones.
 
I'm slowing plowing through my Incredible trying to get comfortable with it. It will take me a while, but I'm having fun. One thing I'm stuck on. I have loaded about 10 songs onto my card. I would like to make ringtones out of parts of a few of these songs. I recall someone saying there was a way to cut out the part you want to save as a ringtone. This feature was already on our Incredibles, but I don't know where to find it or what it's called.

By the way, I went to my local Verizon store this morning to see if I could swap the free 2 GB card that want sent to me for a phone charger. No dice! Oh well. I also see (maybe it's been reported already--I haven't been reading the forum much today because I'm playing with my new toy) that Amazon has the Incredible for $99. Yikes.
 
I just got my first call on my DI and I see the callers location, is the City ID app a paid service as it was on dumb phones? I assume it can't be deleted since it came with the phone?

It should work fine, look for the issue to be resolved when Android 2.2 is released (sometime in May is the rumor right now).

Check out an app called RingDroid. Haven't used it but it's free and I've heard works well for that exact purpose.
 
the screen protector from vzw is so bad it's ridiculous. it feels so sticks and has a million bubbles. my zagg isn't here yet so i have to go a day or two with no protection. i'm petrified of getting a scratch. do you think it will scratch easily if i'm really careful though? did not activate yet and can't until my dad gets home since i don't know soc sec and such.

AACKK! I haven't gotten that far yet (installing an app). I'm a real novice. Isn't there something on this phone that will do that for me already? Otherwise, I'll take the plunge and try RingDroid. Thanks!
 
Has had my incredible for a couple days. This phone is rocking the sh*t! ******ed fast and "so pertty" (said is best deliverance voice).

Sold my Droid for $230 and I kept the 16gb sd card. Guy who bought it works at a verizon reseller store.

If you have a droid to sell do it quickly. Prices are going to drop quickly once people see the incredible.
 
Is there any way to hear notification sounds over bluetooth headset? ( i.e. new text message sound)

Sorry If this has Been asked

thanks

Aha! So I found something in the stock software that may work for you. Pick a song and play it in the music app. Hit menu>set as ringtone>trim the ringtone....then it gives you the option to just select part of the song. hooray!
