Official HTC Droid Incredible Release Thread

[GLAT]

Anyone else look forward to unlocking the phone and seeing the weather?

Can anyone elaborate more on what Verizon has mucked up being that this is a locked device?

Also, some download and upload speeds would be great to see along with your location.

Where do I copy my MP3 music to?

I have installed the 2GB MicroSD card and with a USB cable attached I see folders. Which folder do I put my music in on the SD card?

I just made a folder called music and copied all my music there, including subfolders etc

I also have a media folder, with subfolders called "alarms", "notifications", and "ringtones", for alarms, notifications and ringtones

I believe the name of the folders is what matters, not where they actually are...

has anyone found an app to use the power button to lock the phone? I really mis that from my droid.

Can someone explain which Facebook app to use. I seem to have the Android one and the HTC Sense one. I figured that out based on what it says when I post. When I tried to upload a picture, it listed two FB apps as options. I would like to just have one, and it be the one that works best for the phone.

I'm quite sure both are necessary. Facebook for Android is the basic Facebook application, where you click the icon and you're welcomed to the news feed and various other sections of facebook. Facebook for HTC Sense is actually a core part of the Sense UI (I believe) ... its the program that runs through you're phonebook to show your contacts' updates and retrieve new pictures from their pages. It's less of an application, and more of a co-existing feature of HTC Sense. Never the less, it for some reason allows you to upload photos. I've just been selecting Facebook for Android, as I assume thats probably what will send my photos to the "Mobile Uploads" album the best.

That is exactly what the power button does, does yours not lock when you hit the power button?

Bought my HTC Incredible yesterday and they said I won't be getting it til Tuesday and that I get 30 Days to try it out.

Does the 30 Days Start when I Get the phone or did the 30 days start when I bought the phone?

Anyone else notice when looking at the screen when it's off you can see a grid of dots (maybe 1/4 inch apart) that are reflective?

It doesn't bother me, just curious if anyone knows what that is?

I noticed them when I first cleaned the phone. Freak'd me out I was like crap what special coating did I remove.

Nothing...there isn't anything Verizon based on the phone.

When you get it and activate it. (no that does not mean you can activate it a month down the road and play with it to have 60+ days...once you sign for it, the 30 days start)

It locks it if the screen is not locked already...meaning...when the screen is dark..i hit the power button, time comes up with the lock swipe. i hit it again...its locked....but if the screeen is already unlocked, if i hit the power button....nothing happens....my droid would automaticly lock the screen...

Don't expect to find a Dock/Extended Battery before May 14th...unless you're area has any to send, which they probably don't, SUPER LIMITED stock on it. Just a heads up

Question guys. The ol' lady got the Incredible. She wanted the Droid sound off of Moto. So I copied it over to her SD card as both the ogg and as well as a converted mp3 version. Only problem is, I can't seem to get Astro to move it off of the SD card. I try to copy, as soon as I move up, I lose the command. I try to move, same difference. I move back into the sdcard directory, and I can paste it there again. Any ideas on where I'm going wrong?
