I just got a replacement unit for my Dinc.Does anyone have a step-by-step guide on how to get all the apps and data onto the replacement phone?I do have apps like Swype that aren't available on the market.I'd rather not have to go through the whole process of downloading and reinstalling everything.

The battery in the Magellan in my car died and I didn't have a charger with me. So I pressed my DInc into service as a GPS unit. I must admit it performed remarkably well. The user interface on it wasn't as smooth as the Magellan, but the Magellan is designed to function as a GPS and only a GPS and the DInc isn't. The only problem I had with it is I couldn't see the screen as the screen was washed out in the sunlight. Is there any way to combat this? How can I use this as a GPS replacement if I can't see the screen?

I'm using launcher pro, and setting up all 7 home pages again takes a LOT of time.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI called tech support because of the numerous issues I've been having with my Inc (sound issues, in call sound dropping out with call still in progress, pink screen, unresponsive screen, weird lock ups, etc.).They told me I wouldn't get a replacement until July 19.I finally told her to order it but after much work, the system wouldn't let her order it at all.She got really flustered and finally got tired of messing with it and transferred me to tech support.Fortunately, I was transferred to a really helpful tech who really understanding.She also tried unsuccessfully to order it.She out the next two days but is having a coworker follow up and she will continue to help me sort it out if it isn't already by Wednesday.So we'll see what happens.One way or another she's promised to get me a working phone though I don't know if it will be an Inc.Just thought folks might find it interesting that at the moment, it can't be ordered internally.

View 6 Replies View RelatedHopefully the new one, which is being shipped May 6th will not have these call quality issues or I might have to return the phone and wait for something else.I love everything else about this phone so hopefully I'm not back on Eris and waiting for something else or the issue to be fixed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to backup/copy my current Incredible to the replacement one I received? Pictures/sms/email settings would be the main things I need copied since I have my contacts on my computer.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI already had my Incredible replaced a few months ago, but now I am having trouble with the replacement, and I'm thinking about getting this one replaced with another certified replacement. However, I'd much rather have the SLCD screen because the text is much sharper since the screens use the typical RGB pixel layout as opposed to the RGBG PenTile layout of the AMOLED screens. This is the one reason I can't stand the AMOLED screen, you can read more about it here...
View 12 Replies View RelatedI am getting my replacement DI on Friday to replace my power button issue, I have an app I am unable to find in the market place called videobox where I could download and save you tube videos to watch later or show friends without streaming them again. I would like to save the file from my current phone and put it on my new phone.
I have my phone rooted but I am a windows mobile guy so the Android is a learning curve for me.
Mods please feel free to move this if it's not in the right section. I'm running skyraider 3.0 rc2 vanilla and love it so far. There are only a couple of things that I miss from stock sense. The one that I am after is a bookmark widget. I can't find any on the market. This got me thinking about widgets in general. There should be a list of widgets somewhere for people going to vanilla Roms. Is there such a list anywhere? We need one similar to the rooted apps thread. Just a thought. And if someone has any thoughts on a bookmark widget, that would be awesome. Or would the stock one work and where can I find it?
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo I have had my replacement phone for about a month now. I haven't had time to play with it that much. I clicked on PDF, and low and behold there is something that was downloaded to the SD card as a PDF on it. I did not download this, which means they gave me a used SD card with the replacement phone ( sketchy right?) Anyway, I want to delete the pdf, how do i do it? I know there is an uninstall place somewhere, just not sure where it is. Also how do I check to see what else is on the SD card?

View 3 Replies View RelatedThis thing is getting terrible signal quality, and in debug is never showing me anywhere better than -100. Customer service over the phone isn't helping a bit and want to debug the phone using another line. Well, I don't have another line.
I'm getting no where quickly.
I saw some similar threads in other phone forums (eris, EVO) but I'm wondering if anyone has had luck with this on the Dinc.
Verizon is shipping me what I assume is a refuted phone. If I turn it on, root it, and throw in my old SD card, will there be any trouble doing a typical nandroid restore?
i saw written previous issues of the title of the nandroid folder name (something about the correct phone serial number?)
edit: alternative could be titanium backup, but i don't know if one's preferable to the other.
When i am receiving a call.. i try to answer the phone..the phone doesn't answer sometime like it is on mute then they hang up..i think because i hit the accept wrong or something.. the phone is acting weird when i receive a call.. this seem to be a problem? how can i get a replacement if u guys know? it happen to me 2 or 3 times already.. if it continues i want a replacement!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI had to replace my Incredible as it developed a screen malfunction. The replacement has its own problems; namely, it reacts slowly to almost everything. In fact, as I sit here, it's locked up after I tried to play a video my wife sent me that I had played earlier today with no problem. It got catatonic on me the other evening; only recourse was to pull the battery (which it's looking like I'll have to do now). And text input presents its own problems (like getting the character a long keypress would get you, but about five seconds after I tap on the key). Is there anything that can be done for this replacement short of demanding another replacement?

Also, all my contacts are phone contacts, not gmail contacts, will HTC sync application help me backup my contacts and restore them? I haven't replaced an HTC phone yet so please forgive my innocence. I'm a converted BB user and now never going back to anything but Droid. Also, will i be receiving LCD screen instead AMOLED screen? Is that the rumor ?I do have insurance, i'm sure it will cost me more than 50 bucks to replace it. Prob 100$ right?
View 17 Replies View RelatedWas just thinking about replacing my Eris, and was wondering if the Incredible would be the logical step up from the Eris. I like the Eris a lot but there ARE a couple things that I think I'm getting tired of. First is it's slow most of the time, and second, the camera is just not living up to my expectations. Anyone have opinions on this?
View 17 Replies View Relatedi went back to the store to do a refund (LOVE the vibrant but honestly cannot handle with all my freezing, slowlyness, black screens, etc... anymore).the guy there told me there is no better phone for me and he can refund me but don't think it's a good decision for me (i know the guy so i don't think about salesman-customer bulls**ts) and here on some thread i read that after getting a new device some of the problem users had, have been gone.so i think the best way for me to make this decision is to make sure the new unit the store can give me is really newer than mine and not the same.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI always thought the default display unit would be pixels.But when I run my application on WVGA800 in the emulator the lines are five pixels wide even though I called Paint.setStrokeWidth(3). The same seems to happen with Drawable.setBounds(); the value I provide gets multiplied by 1.5 internally. If that's the case, how can I specify pixels instead of dips if I want pixels?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got unit tests which are subclasses of AndroidTestCase, I thought they were just taking awhile to run, but for some reason when I run them via Eclipse, they actually run twice. I can verify this in LogCat after the Console outputs "Launching instrumentation android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner on device..." the first run starts, which is only visible via LogCat. Then the JUnit pane comes to life and starts tracking the second run.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI downloaded Unit Converter, and noticed that the market said it needed no permissions, while the manage apps list on the phone said it needed to modify the sd card and read phone state. Not that this was a huge deal, but why would they be different?
Anyways, how does everyone like that unit converter? It seems like it has everything!!
I was finally able to build and debug the android platform (the process can be seen here). Now, the question is: where are the unit tests, how do I launch them and where do I see results? And also, is there any guide to android platform architecture?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThere is no way to load a string from a specific locale's language file.
What I want to do is run all my locales' (I have 24 of them) time format strings through unit tests to make sure they don't crash. For example, here's a date format string in French: "'Hier à ' h:mm a".
These really need to be unit tested, because translators aren't great about properly escaping these strings, causing crashes unless we manually verify every string in every language every time we get a translation pass back.
This question has a sort-of answer. Is that really the only way? Is there a better way to specify the locale of a Context in unit tests?
