Official HTC Droid Incredible Problems/Issues Thread

I've been using it for a few weeks and have never had that happen. It is set to update every hour. You may want to sign out of of facebook and remove the desktop widget, then sign back in and put the widget back on the desktop.

thanks, i had to delete my facebook account and re-add it, but now unfortunatley all my synced contacts profile pic is gone that i manually did. it is really annoying to do it all over again. is there a way to link multiple contacts to facebook at a time? thanks

Hi FAUguy, which one should I use, EVRC or EVRC-B? How can I access the service menu to change the setting? Thanks a lot!

I haven't used a Dare in quite some time, but I haven't had any issue with the voice quality or break-ups on the Incredible. You may want to go into the service menu and see if you are using EVRC or EVRC-B voice codec.

Did anyone find the call quality is much lower than LG Dare? There are so many short breaks in the voice I hear from the ear piece, but the other person on the line hear me clearly.

Hmm, this was covered before, but you have to dial ##PROGRAM and then enter the code 000000. Go to NAM CDMA Settings, and scroll down to the 3 that say "preferred voice service". All three should say EVRC, but you can change them to EVRC-B and see if that helps. On some phones and markets the EVRC-B sounds better, but I've tried both here and think EVRC sounds better.

You had to delete your (real) facebook account? Why wouldn't you just of removed the account from the phone and then re-add it back?

Can't sync Facebook calendar?

under account setup, I have Facebook, and Facebook HTC Sense.

I can't setup Facebook (when I tap it nothing happens), and Facebook HTC Sense only allows to sync contacts and Live Feed...

So how do I get my FB calendar to sync with my INC?

Has it been doing this since day one or has it just started?
I've never had this happen. I wonder if an app may be causing it?

I think this is related to the issues I was talking about earlier with using conjunctions. If you watch my high quality video, you'll see that after my failed attempted to try to write the word "I'm", a huge jumble of mess will appear of lower case letters, and then it will try to capitalize the first letter after that.

If you use the "full" qwerty in portrait mode you shouldn't have the problem. It is only a problem with compact qwerty: ABC and XT9 modes.

I can't remember if it has been doing it since day one or not, but I did notice it early on.

I'm not sure if it's the same issue, as I see it with non-conjunctions as well, but yes it seems to be similar. I guess I will have to get used to using full qwerty more - hopefully it's a random bug that can be fixed in the future. It's minor, but annoying nonetheless.

Thanks for the replies!

no, not my real facebook, the acct on the phone and then readd it. but by doing this, all my contacts which i linked to their FB pic is now gone, and i had done that manually so it takes a lot of time. is there a way to link all, or multiple contacts at a time to their facebook pic? thanks

Is there any way to make the picture stay up longer than 5 seconds when you get a pic message?? When i get a picture message and open it, the pic disappears and if i hit the pause button the whole screen turn black.

Has anyone's Droid auto-restart by itself?

I notice that my phone sometimes shut itself off and turns itself back on...

Happens to mine from time to time. Never seems to happen when I'm using it, I heard that annoying reboot sound a hour or so ago and the phone had been sitting on the table 30 minutes with out being touched.

I am just curious.... With all the things the this phone "Does" why on earth am I not able to use my jawbone bluetooth headset to voice dial the phone?? This is a big let down and kinda rediculous!!!!!

It is a let down, I felt the same way! I am debating on returning the phone partly just for that fact. I did find an app that works pretty well called "voice dialer hf" on market. It does everything with the phone speaker and mic, but it's interactive. Blueant has a headset that comes with an android app.

Android 2.1 doesn't support that yet for some reason. I forget if Froyo 2.2 has it - I believe so.
Moto has integrated it into their Blur (like on the Devour), but aside from that I do not think any Android device has BT voice dialing yet. Welcome to 2010.

Is anyone having a problem with your ringtone only playing for 3 seconds before going silent when you get a phone call. I have the "quiet ring on pickup" option off and it only does this about half the time. I am using a MP3 as my ringtone. I can't figure out why it's doing this.

As much as I'm luvin' Andriod, I also still do consider Google's continued disregard of this issue to be a shocking embarrassment to the OS.

I would be VERY interested to know if anyone has heard of its inclusion in Froyo 2.2!
