    Resending Old Texts Received the OTA update this morning and so far (without any indeptth exploration) no problems except that the phone has resent out about a dozen old texts. Which is something of a problem (having to explain to these folks why I am texting them about something that was...

    New Incredible Battery Life Sticky: Please Contribute

    I bought two generic 1500 mAh batteries and charger off ebay for $10. So far (three cycles on each), I've been very happy with them and I think my experience with them, using the charger (which charges the battery out of the phone) confirms CRKhead's theory posted above. Powering off the...

    1500mAH which is Fake or Real?

    Sorry, don't remember exactly how long it took, but I think it was less than a week -- I remember being surprised at how quickly it came.

    1500mAH which is Fake or Real?

    I ordered a pair of batteries and a charger from the same source as Bark8015. $10 including shipping. Clearly they are not original HTC batteries nor are they advertised as such. My experience, after running them through a couple of 20% to 100% cycles, is that they significantly outperform...

    802.11n Support? Yes or No?

    Cory, thanks very much. I dug a little deeper and found this article on how to use an old G router as an access point: How to: Convert Wireless Routers into Access Points - www.wi-fiplanet.com I thought I'd post it in case anyone else winds up going down this road. The WND3700 will...

    802.11n Support? Yes or No?

    In mixed mode, does the range drop down to b or g range also? I'm just about out of range of my wireless G router in some areas of my house where I'd like to use wifi with my Incredible. I tried moving the router; that makes reception better in some areas and worse in others. But the areas...

    TV out Question

    Anyone know if there is a micro USB to Mini USB adapter that you could use with this? HTC OEM TV Out Cable ACT100 -TheCellGuru.com I've seen some inexpensive adapters advertised for use in connection with chargers, but don't know whether they would pass through data (video and audio).

    3G vs Wifi

    I don't get it -- then wouldn't wifi generally use more power than 3G? And in my "test", the phone was just sitting there, unused. I can see the radio activity plotted every 15 minutes when just using the data network, but when I switch to wifi, it seems to be "on" full time.

    3G vs Wifi

    I know (or at least I think I know) that wifi is supposed to use less power than 3G. But that's not what I'm seeing on my phone. Using Juiceplotter, with wifi on, I'm cruising through the battery at about 10% or more per hour. Turn off wifi, and it's maybe 2-3% per hour. Usage is about the...
