Due to the bug issues...I accepted. Replacement dinc2! I'm very excited to join your community and break away from Samsung.

If it comes with the OTA GB update already you cannott software root with AlpharevX, you MUST use an XTC clip. it's been beat to death but that'd how the dice rolls, hopefully you are still on froyo so you can root, just don't accpet the OTA
Your replacement will have GB on it. I also came from the fascinate community and they over nighted me the dinc 2 and has GB Preinstallated... Brand new phone, not refurbished. With the older bootloader being exploited already and it not changing from the the upgrade to GB, I'm sure we will only need a new software exploit to update alpharevx to s-off and root.

At this rate, I think most of their customers are probably rooted already. Better support here than vzw techs can ever provide!
Fact is that vzw wants to make sure their crap doesn't affect HTC's update before releasing it. As such, we all now how much crap they dump on us, so expect to wait a lot longer!

OK but I would say about 80% of people don't root. I know that is just an estimate but from experience it seems reasonable to me. So, say vzw sold 100,000 inc2s. That would be 80,000 people that might call them if the update changed something or something was broken in it. That's a lot of time for vzw service reps

I am not saying you are wrong, but my original point is that ICS is on the Incredible S, (which I think is the same phone unless someone tells me differently) and it is fine. If it was such an issue, Verizon would never release an update on any phone ever... because something can always go wrong and often does. The one way they truly know there are issues is to release an update, listen to feedback and send out bug fixes. What we "think" we know is that Verizon has had this update, since at least August if not earlier and they are sitting on it. I don't believe one bit that they are worried that this update might break something, Maybe I am a conspiracy theorist, but I think they are holding off hoping more people update to newer phones. Look at the Galaxy Nexus. JellyBean 2 or 3 months ago and Verizon just updated it about a week ago. The Galaxy Nexus is going on a year old and if they can get people to upgrade, they can also get people into this ridiculous share everything plan. I just don't think it has anything to do with them making this update perfect, because that would not follow how they have handled updates up until now...

HTC has always done from my knowledge. Oh, if you do get the OTA update, then I hope you get good coverage. Last time I did an OTA update, it took two and a half hour to download like 180 MB at full bars.
P.S. I believe that Sprint is still CDMA to my knowledge (or I don't know crap.)

agreed, not to mention if bugs arise from the ota or post ota (that werent caught in testing or werent thought to be a big deal) then they have to potentially release more incremental updates that cost more money
i dont know exactly how the contract stuff works, but im assuming verizon paid for ics updates from htc for the tbolt and inc2 (since there are debug builds) but might be able to cut their losses by not actually releasing it...if they feel that it doesnt benefit them by releasing it
the tbolt not getting updated makes sense actually since it was released 3/11, and that puts the 20 month on contract update window for those early adopters within the next month or two
i dont see verizon doing anything to lessen the chances those users upgrade....and a new OS just might do that
inc2 was released about 6 weeks to 2 months later, but same theory applies
not to say the update still *wont* happen...but every week that its not out id say significantly drops the chances of it
now that doesnt get htc off the hook for chinese inc2 kernel source...which by my count is approaching (if not passed) their own 120 day window (which techinically by my interpretation is not legal anyway) for releasing it

actually htc has been releasing (for the first time i can remember) the ics updates for the msm7x30 phones on htc dev as RUU's rather than ota's as of late
without looking im pretty sure they did this for the desire s, rhyme, and the more recent inc s updates....they seemed to have stopped ota's through carriers for it
i guess their reasoning is something along the lines of "well the general public wont take the upgrade, so less support" and since its released through htc dev anyway i dont think they have to support it...its more like "here it is, have at it"
This will make the various ICS ROMS for DINC2 much better, since now they will be based on our phone instead of something like our phone.

LOL, so now today HTC has been responding on their Facebook and saying they are working with Verizon on the ICS update for Thunderbolt, Incredible 2... and the REZOUND! SMH. The Rezound was already updated to ICS a while back, early August if I remember correctly. I really think no one over there knows what the hell they are doing...

Unfortunately, its buggy as hell. If it works for you, then by all means, enjoy it!!!
Does this really belong here? prolly not
but i know a lot of inc2 users dont want to upgrade and loose unlimited data, and buying phones off contract can be crazy expensive to keep it
inc4g can typically be had for under $250 on ebay/cl, and now we have s-off coming (which being locked was a major point for many to avoid the phone)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1944157
basically thought id throw this out there, for those looking for a pretty good (i love it, others refuse to use anything smaller than 4.3 inch screen these days) 4g phone that can be had off contract used for just about upgrade pricing, can now not worry about having an unrootable/locked phone :good:
it will most likely be getting official jellybean at some point, which the rezound probably wont (nothing against rezound, but that could be a deal breaker for some)
Awesome, the not unlockable at all part was definitely what had me staying away from this, I knew it'd get done eventually though, thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for this nits. Are you on the dinc4g now? It's something to consider at that price. Is battery comparable to what we have now on dinc2? I may have to Google to see how big an improvement it is. I don't recall any of the tech specs for it.

yeah ive had the inc4g since launch...i was one of the fortunate ones (maybe 80-100?) that got dev unlocked through htcdev when the phone was unoffiicially supported for its first 10 days post launch...after that htc killed support to it...
theory was either a) verizon told them to (verizon claims our stock release software and unlock would cause issues...according to some support folk) or b) verizon just didnt want it unlockable
in any event, it ll work out in the end, cuz we probably wouldnt have soff if we had dev unlock as andy might not have had to reach out to the i/o guys if we still had unlock...and soff is so much better
but our sense4.1/android 4.0.4 update this week contained the exploit the guys needed to get temproot and soff the device supposedly :good:
as for the device?
battery life is incredible for a 4g device...on the stock battery and kernel i get 4 hours screen on time regularly (more than my inc2), in lte coverage the whole time...radios are very good
comparing it to the inc2, i guess form factor differences would be iphone 4s vs iphone5...the inc4g is narrower, but qhd res....i happen to like the screen a lot (even though some blogs killed it)....its very responsive, and smooth (even more so now on sense4.1 vs 4.0)
Keep us posted on the s-off. Thanks nit.
Thanks for the info Justin.
Well I will certainly be getting this phone for sure.

I'm certainly going to think hard on it. I have to go off contract to keep unlimited anyways. I may begin monitoring the forum to see how much dev support swings over there. Will cyanogenmod ever support non moto phones? Lol.

Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
If anyone cares for another opinion, I can pretty much confirm Justin's take on the Dinc4. I had the Dinc2 for quite a while and absolutely loved it (now my dad loves it.) I was predisposed to the Dinc4 because the form factor of the Dinc2 was perfect. Once I noticed Justin had the phone and knew it would have great ROMs, that sealed the deal. My phone arrived THE DAY HTC removed it from their unlock tool :'(
So after 3 months with the Dinc4, I'm a little baffled by the amount of negative reviews on this phone. The screen is fantastic, the camera is outstanding, and the phone (stock) is smooth and responsive. The latest update made it even better. Battery life is great. If you like your Dinc2 as much as I did and aren't looking for a phablet size device, I think this is a great upgrade.
Cheers.
+1 I just got mine and I love it. Except for the lack of root, but like nits said that will be available in the near future. The form of the phone reminds me of the og inc and I loved that lil guy
if root ever becomes available for it, i might look around to trade my dinc2 + some cash maybe, for one. dinc2 is my first Android based phone and I really love it. I even liked it on stock, but root is just amazing lol
We're told root is coming soon
Once the s-off tool is released, i'm sure root will accompany root.

yeah, just fastboot a recovery and flash a superuser package and youre set (post s-off)
I think just maybe HTC threw the dinc4g a bone. They have supported the android underground in the past. They still would if very greedy wireless hadn't stepped in.
It makes sense to me, that they released an update knowing full well that we could exploit it.
Anyone else think the same?

Need someone who got an OG < 14 days ago and wouldn't mind a potential brick for CM
If you got an OG less than 14 days ago (which means you could exchange it for free if you brick) and wouldn't mind bricking, I have something kind of risky for you to try. This could potentially make us able to run nexus 4 kernels, which would make the road to CM exponentially shorter. If you are interested, please PM me or post here and I will send you the necessary files. If possible, I would like someone who knows how to use fastboot. This is completely voluntary, so do not get mad at me if your phone bricks. Sorry to ask this of you, but my 14 days ended. My idea is to flash the RPM partition from the Canadian E973, which has CM and can run n4 kernels. The nexus 4 RPM led to a brick unless someone flashed their partition map (in which case, it worked and accomplished the intended goal), since the OG's and N4's partition maps are very different, but the Canadian OG's is mostly the same, which leads me to believe it could work.
I got an OG off of craigslist last week, just to mess around with it, and maybe replace my GS3 with it, when AOSP ROMs started showing up.
I don't WANT to brick it... but it wouldn't be the biggest deal in the world if I did.
Plus, I've been leaching off XDA since my HTC Vogue. I think I owe the community.
I can offer my OG up to science. Let me know what you need from me. I've got a free day, for the most part, and I can follow directions.

I believe is due to the fact that many variants of the device have locked bootloaders. For many devices ROMs are made to certain variant and then later ported to the rest or mods and features get cherry picked into ROMs for other variants

Most people have contracts and a subsidized devices, the amount of people paying out of pocket at least $320 for the device is very little. So if take that in consideration, T-Mobile device owners are a small porcentage of the whole community. When I got my Note 2 it took like 4 months for any real development to actually kick in and later it turnt out to be a very mature development device. I just got mine a week ago and just starting to play with it this sunday, I know of at least a few more developers that are getting it subsidized closer to Nov due to contracts. This beast is amazing tho! Lets wait a bit.
Lg3 is a superior product right out of the box....devs do their work on their time and mostly on their own dime....for a very small minority of cell phone modders....so if development is lagging it can be understood. With what few choices we have...my phone is humming and battery life is unmatched....

Lol instead of complaining about the lack of, why don't you develop something for us? Not being a smart ass by any means but most of us bough this phone knowing development won't be sky high. I am not complaining because frankly I can't do anything with this phone (I am a Sammy Dev girl) but I am not complaining either. To complain means I can do better which I can't. It also means there's means of doing better, which isn't possible cause the bootloaders are lock or in process of being unlock. So rather than making thread, spend time looking at the Dev forums unlock the bootloders, learn something you can teach the rest of us who aren't doing anything and make us something to contribute to the lack of developing.
I have seen that liquidsmooth is working on funding for a g3 to develop for and I've heard of other devs mentioning that they have some plans. Especially for getting aosp there is always a wait since it's not like with the nexus phones were they have all the files to build they have to do it through trial and error to get everything running right. So give it time.
I gotta laugh because i invested money into the phone and my opinion is my opinion but everyone's first response is to get defensive lol. People the phone is awesome so I'm by no means saying i regret a minute with it I'm just saying i love diversity in choices i.e. roms. Smh people need to relax

Lol, you have to understand...we get a thread like this atleast once a day lol. The redundancy only takes a while before well, it become redundant.
Development in general, unless if nexus, is slow. I think only HTC fares well in that department. I wonder if its because it is so close to stock and not bloated with everything? Also they do unlock their devices. Who knows
Thanks for the empty words of wisdom

This phone is a great phone by far but the lack of development on a phone that's been out for a little while now is ridiculous!

We were waiting for you to put out an awesome rom
One more thing i will say and then I'm done. LG has come a long way and I'm happy that i got to see first hand their progress and look forward to what is next! I thought the whole back button thing was going to be annoying but i actually love it!
