***Official HTC Incredible Thread***

This is for anyone that has the phone:

So I heard that the screen is supposed to be scratch and fingerprint resistant. Can anyone confirm this or is it a fingerprint magnet?

Cool, thanks. I'm looking for just a regular slip case(preferably leather) so i can use it 'naked' when its in my hand, and keep it relatively protected in my pocket.

Any ideas?

Do they sell the Nexus 1 slip cover on its own?

I am a HUGE fan of etsy.com, all homemade stuff, and I marvel at the talent some people have. And they also have some great ideas. There is a ton of stuff out there for iPhones, but everyone does custom work, so you can always request that they make you something for the DInc. Everything I've purchased from there has been great!

Anyway, my brother has this leather slip case for his phone.

If anyone is looking for a more novel case, I love this although it would make your phone huge (I know, I know...that's what she said )

Good luck!

I have never used Swype and like the idea, but at this point it does not have the ability to do voice to text, correct? Meaning I would need to switch back and forth between keyboards to use that feature

Exactly.

this might fit

Sena Cases - Designer Leather Cases : HTC-Google Nexus One-UltraSlim

And maybe a Vaja Case for the Nexus One? I personally had one of their cases for my old BlueBerry back in the day and...yes...they are slightly more expensive...but the leather is hand stitched and each one is made to order and customizable. Including personalization and putting an image on it (which is an extra 30)

Vaja - Leather Products

The texture on the outside is smooth and shiny Definitely not sticky at all.

That's what she said.

I think this gag has come up once per page for the past 3 days...

That's what she said

Sorry, couldn't resist!

Yikes twice per page...
Sorry, Had to get in on this. I was feeling left out.

Thats essentially what im looking for, just a cleaner finish. Not a big fan of the alligator skin look.

[android206]

just ordered my black to red gradient snap-on cover!

 

[gbenj]

The more i look around, and considering the fact that there arent many places that have cases for the incredible yet, ones designed for the nexus one should be fine, considering im just looking for something to house it, not fit it like a glove.

 

[4ajd4]

Looks like the inexpensive screen protector production is beginning. I've always wondered the difference in quality btwn these and the more expensive types. Either way, a good cheap alternative to make sure your DI is protected from Day 1. We'll probably start to see cases popping up on ebay shortly also!

htc incredible screen protector, Cell Phones PDAs. Great deals on eBay!

 

[kenc3dan]

hey did anyone notice that under Bluetooth technology it specifies

"Droid Incredible supports the following BT profiles: Mono and stereo headset (HSP), Hands"free (HFP), Stereo (A2DP), Phonebook Access (PBAP), Object Push Profile (OPP)"

...voice dialing?!?!?

Nope, no Bluetooth voice dialing on the Droid Incredible - same as the Droid. I confirmed this with Verizon customer service via email and voice.

Getting to the point we might have to get shirts made...

"Incredible... That's what she said."

 

[Incredible_Nat]

Yes, for the extended 2100 mAh battery and the included case it was $59.99 the case also looked really great! just like the original.

Not too bad if you ask me! plus, with it being OEM / official from verizon, I'm pretty certain their ratings are going to be right.

just checked - no extended battery....and no desktop charger

Dang!

 

[JediKly13]

Man this place is great, Thanks for all the info everyone! I can't seem to keep up with all the pages that are popping up.

I forget where I read it, but HTC said that the screen they used is coated with an oleophobic coating specifically to minimize smudges on the screen and that that was one of their main priorities with the screen. Not sure how scratch resistant it is though.

yeah heard that too! anyone with the phone, you lucks sons of guns, can you guys confirm this? Or does it pick up every fingerprint?

ATTENTION...May I direct you to the following threads for case/holster/screen protectors/skins please...it is getting ridiculous to try and follow anything else. Thanks for your support.

I have a ZAGG 50% off code that I am not going to use. First PM gets it

 

[evilotto]

I think this is the car charger I am gonna get for my incredible Amazon.com: Cellet Motorola Q9h, RAZR2 V9m, RAZR2 V9, & micro USB Retractable Plug in Car Charger - PMOTQ9R: AccessoryOne they are really cheap but I had one for my old phone and it worked great. I like the fact that the cord is retractable and small.

If your source wasn't Verizon customer service I might actually take this as fact. Customer Service has clearly shown they don't know what's going on 99% of the time.

OK, so how many times a day do you check your order status to see if maybe they let your order ship early? I've been checking 3-4 times/days.
