***Official HTC Incredible Thread***

Got a chuckle out of this and wanted to pass it on.

I've been going back and forth with Verizon trying to get them to let me upgrade my line early. My upgrade is not until mid August. Last night I spoke to someone who found that there was a smartphone promotion that could be used with 2 of the lines on my plan, so they told me that I could order the phone on one of those lines and then after I got it it could be added to my phone number. Well, the lady for some reason could not get the order to go through, and ended up disconnecting me and never called back. Crappy service, right? Earlier in the call she told me she would notate the account so I could go into a store and pick it up if I wanted to. So I started calling stores to see if I could put one on hold because I know that some stores already have wait lists. Well, the guy I talked to at the store had no clue what I was talking about, and recommended that I call Verizon back. So I called Verizon back and the guy was super nice. He could not even find the promotion, but since they notated in the account that they told me I could do it he told me they would honor it. However, he told me that I could not order the Incredible because it is not available until tomorrow, and that is why the person last night could not order it. So......he told me to call back tomorrow. I

No, what I meant was that my contacts in my old phone did not sync with backup assistant.

I never downloaded program with old phone. I forgot to do it.

I read that you can go to the store and they can sync your contacts from your old phone to Incredible.
 
Here's a good one for all of you....

My wife has been home for the past 8 weeks taking care of our new baby girl. Today she decides she wants to meet her friend for lunch......and guess what? FedEx attempts a delivery and there's no one home to sign for it!!

So I drive 15 miles to the FedEx counter to pick it up this evening, only to realize once I got there that in my haste I forgot my wallet. No ID, no package. I got the lady at the counter to accept my vehicle registration as ID, got the phone, and off I went!! WHEW!!!!!!!!!

Anyway...set it up and played for a bit....now it's on the charger. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

Backup assistant does not work with Smartphones. You have to go to store or export to a CSV and load into google.
 
Have been playing with mine all day... (that sounds bad)..... I love it!!! I feel like I have just touched the surface.. It really is Incredible!!
 
My dear friends we are almost at the end for our dear thread- many laughs and misadventures were had. Some of you have been on here much longer than I have but for me it had been an incredible journey to a great new phone. Thanks to all our insiders who kept us fed, our moderators- who kept us in line, and our jokesters -who kept us entertained. From disappointments to mystery boxes to shipping woes we have come a long way and now most of us have or will have phone in hand and venture on to other threads regarding routing, apps and general HOW THE HECK DO I ------? Just wanted to say that I have thouroughly enjoyed waiting for this incredible phone with all of you- good luck with your new toy and see you all around the forums.

LOL my first post.......
 
Anyone else notice this with the camera on their Incredible? You go to take a picture and it auto-focuses like normal then you click the opticaljoysticktrackspherecontrollerknob and it takes the picture but as soon as it takes it, it seems like the phone "cleans up" the picture and suddenly the picture you took looks a lot better than the actual picture you THOUGHT you took.

not a complaint just an observation. pretty neat feature if you ask me

100% incorrect on Backup Assistant and smartphones. It is loaded now on the BlackBerrys via VZW push. You can use this on any phone on VZW now (can't speak to the M Droid, but don't see why not).

Ahhh CRAP! I accidentally deleted my "favorites" widget, where is it? How do i get it back?
Click to expand...

lol i have no idea!

calling *611 since i didnt get a software disc...

and im still figuring out email thing... trying to get my 3 emails on the phone. it was so much easier on my Blackberry.

Added some contacts to the favorites section. Pretty cool when they sync facebook pics so you have a page of all your favorites pics.

I almost deleted it when i was trying to move around the people but realized it was in alphabetical order and i dont think you can change it

wow, thought I would be able to just pick up this phone and go, but there is a learning curve with it. I am enjoying it very much...the only concern I have is that it actually seems a little laggy when scrolling fast, I know every review I have seen says it is pretty much lag free. of course this is the first time I have used it so it may get better over time. regardless this is by far the best phone I have ever owned.

If you want to get used to the lag, I have a 9530 BB Storm I can sell you now... :rolleyes:
