So I was planning on giving my droid incredible to a friend of mine, everything was just fine. I haven't touched the phone in about a week and a half. I have cm 11 4.4.2 I think it's a nightly. S-off. I went in my recovery which was phillz cwm, factory reset/data wipe. Then I went to wipe the phone storage and the 8gb SD card. When I wiped both It asked me what format, I chose default. I powered off phone from recovery and then It wouldn't come back on... Nor will it charge, and 5 mins before it was working great. What can I do? I hope and pray I didn't brick it..
And if nothing can be done I might repair it, like a jtag, but I have the oneplus one. So idk.. I just hate to see a phone like the Droid just go to waste. All help will be thanked.
Please help?
That's not good... I'm probably suggesting what you've already tried, but... Did you do a battery pull followed by holding vol_down and power together (then release power while still holding vol_down) to get the phone into bootloader? If you can get there, you can push a new recovery and ROM.

Yes. Still working great. Tethered to it at this very moment. About 3 weeks ago, it was getting laggy and gapps were constantly crashing so I nuked it to scratch including wiping out all internal memory and then rebuilt it with ViperLTE ROM. It is performing "like new" and much faster than it had been for a while.

Same 'ol. When I reinstalled the ViperLTE, I left off HTC Music since I don't use it. Apparently, the Beats enhancement is part of that package so if I really want Beats, I'll need to reinstall the ROM again. There is a perceptible difference with my Bluetooth headphones. Ah well, not a big deal. I used to change ROMs on a regular basis for a while with the OG Dinc. That phone had lots of choices compared to this phone.
There really are not too many phones that have me excited enough to replace the one I have now. Nothing as small that fits nicely in my pocket, nothing with data faster than 4G data. After reinstalling the ROM, its almost like new speed-wise, and the battery is still holding up about as well as it did a couple years ago, so I really have no complaints or desire to change - especially since doing so will put my unlimited data at risk...
How's the oneplus one?

Am I the Only person who got a Perfect Amaze with No defects?
I LOVE THIS FREAKIN" PHONE
Only thing, that pink TMO Goodbye animation on power down , its got to go, they could have made it blue, yeah, yeah I know - TMO likes pink, easy fix when Rooted & S-OFF
Come on people, some of the comments are something else, guess your previous phone was absolutely Perfect from first boot, there was not need to root or personalize them in anyway.
I went from a G2x to the Amaze. G2x was awesome, rooted with CM7 and it was exactly what I wanted in a phone, except for the fact that the camera in the G2x was awful and even with a custom rom, it would still lock up.
As soon as I root my Amaze and uninstall sense and the other bloatware preinstalled (seriously 31 apps preinstalled I have 0 use for) this device will be near 100% perfect for me.
My only fear is that the camera app is tied into sense and freezing that will mess that up, but we'll just have to see, unless someone who's already done it can attest.
Yes, I am really enjoying this phone. There's so many things I like about it. Especially those two little camera buttons. I have the white model and its absolutely gorgeous. I honestly have no reason to root right now. If you were to install a custom Rom you would lose a lot of features. The camera would have a lot less function without the built in Sense features.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA App
I am with you on that - this baby is something else, just needs a little de-bloat, though I cannot see any lag at all even with all the default SF
Only thing I have planned after root is some of my favorite apps for rooted phones
I did eventually get my MT4G running like a dream, the Amaze is like my MT4G on a double dose of Roids - right out the box
Perfect size phone & screen, I dislike Tablets, the Amaze is a great tweener.
Sent from My Virtuous MT4G - While conditioning Amaze battery - see if that battery memory thing does work
Are you confirming that the features for the camera are tied to sense or are you sepculating?
I have no intentions of going for a custom rom at this point, I just want to freeze sense and a bunch of other bloat. I was able to lag the phone significantly by installing launcher pro, but I think it was fighting sense the whole time.

I tried 3 different ones I have from my G2 and Nexus 1, on those phones, it works fine, on the Amaze, it gives me these errors:
Damaged SD Card
Removed SD card
It won't let me mount or format them through the phone. I formatted them through the computer fine but the phone won't read them. Brought it to the T-Mobile store they said they'll replace the phone.. so hopefully it's just my unit..

I'm familair with them and have used some of them, I just didn't know if they were linked to the actual SENSE app, or if it was built into it's own camera apk.
If they are linked, then I can live without them, but it would be nice to keep if I could. I'll just have to check for msyefl.
I'm happy so far but I may have a concern with the camera while using flash. On most pics I take with the flash, there is haze or a halo effect on the photo. It looks like a fog that is thinner at the center and thickens out near the edge. It seems to be worse when the subject is at close range, and it seems to vary in amount from pic to pic. Photos without the flash are fine.
I see nothing on the lens and there isn't anything around the lens/ led flash area. I'm going to stop into T-Mobile and check the demo unit for the same effect.
Otherwise happy. I really want to root for Titanium Backup though.

These T-Mo apps how much space do they really take up? Is it worth all the trouble with "unlocking bootloader" and rooting the phone for a noob like me?
I´m coming from a Desire wich has minimal internal memory to this Amaze with 16Gb (I know i´s not that much irl).
It´s just that I am so annoyed with all these apps I cant even use.
yes this phone is amazing, the onlly thing i dont like about sense is that my wallpapers dont move like all my other phones did, so i cant use all my old wallpapers. Other than that this phone is exactly what i expected it to be

Umm... May want to rephrase that... I use a custom rom that still uses sense as well and has all the camera features so... Custom rom does not equal loss of camera features or sense for that matter... Also I am pretty sure one could have a stripped sense rom and still maintain camera functionality...

I really loved my sensation and the amaze is what my sensation never was a phone without flaws. People complain bout the lights bleeding into the screen but I don't have that issue I like my screen looks great. The device feels awesome in my hand and the heft is perfect. The camera is best I ever had front and back. Most people will complain about sense but I like it until ics I dislike stock android its missing some Polish and ease with its features like dialer, contacts, camera, music player etc... Hate that I'm giving up my amaze and selling it hoping the galaxy s 2 is ok but hoping to pick up an amaze later again this really is a great device wish more devs picked it up to see its value and HTC was more friendly to our devs. Thank god for x!
Edit: what I absolutely hate about my amaze!! The fact that it looks and feels so good bare that I never want to use my case but have to so that it can stay looking so good.

I have gone through 9 replacements trying to get the right phone over the last couple of months and am getting tired of it, what's everyone's opinion about switching to the nexus? I have to admit CM9* and MIUI are a big plus.
i just got a nexus and i love it, battery life seems alot better too. i will say the design of the rezound is better though.
I traded my nexus for my rezound a while ago and never looked back.
love this phone.
the nex is nice, but sense is what I like, I also found the overall build to be better on the rezound, (usually is with HTC..)
I came from a nexus for 2 reasons... 1) The radios are terrible on the Nexus. In my house, my wife has a Thunderbolt and I had the Nexus. Side by side, she would have 3 or 4 bars of 4G, me on the Nexus, like 2 bars of 3G or 1x. also the build quality is much superior to the Nexus. 2, I Luke the challenge of rooting lol. I had a Rezound before but I never rooted it. Traded for the GNex when it came out. I feel its an overall better experience with my rezound. If Ur looking to easily root and have a plethora of dev support, get the Nexus. If u like better radios and built quality, stick with the Rezound.

I partially agree although I haven't had the best experience with the build quality on the rezound....
Traded my nexus for a rezound also. Gnex battery life sucks, camera sucks, and the phone is to big to hold in hand.

this(except for the liking sense part ).
i traded my gnex for a dev rezound(and then an s-off method popped up )
ive actually got 2 of them.since i could s-off my first one, i keep the dev phone put up for emergencies.
ive found the rezound to be of the same quality as all other htc phones ive had. i drive for a living,and my phone rides around all day with me,sometimes getting to 120+ degrees if i leave it on the seat in the sun. ive flashed it,s offed it twice, flashed the crap out of it some more,dropped it,and in general abused the crap out of it.
i loved stock ICS and wanted to love the gnex since it it googles proprietary phone,but to me it felt cheap and plasticy.
after 9 phones,i think you are overly critical and should move on to another device that may make you happier.

I have NEVER sent a phone back due to pink buttons, no matter how much I dislike them. The first four were when I first got the phone, since I came from a droid charge and was comped this I got a refurb. First one had dead pixels, second one had the hissing audio jack, third one had a giant scratch on the screen, fourth one had a blown speaker, the fifth one was just right. Fast forward five months my "just right" phone would go through an extended and a stock battery in 12 hours, completely stock, never unlocked. I was annoyed and got a replacement. The first replacement was fine for a week and then went nuclear on my battery (literally got so hot that the stock battery bloated (yes I know that means the battery also went bad) It almost did the same thing to my extended as well. Fast-forward to yet another phone and this time battery as well, everything seems fine except for the giant scratch on the screen, I swear ti was in the same spot as the one from five months before. Then the next phone, got it, s-off'd it, working perfectly for two days except for pink buttons but **** it, and then I realized I've never made a call with it. Called my father and sure enough the damn speaker is broken, yes I tried on different ROMS and completely stock just to make sure, I know what a blown speaker sounds like. Now I'm on the ninth phone which seems okay for now but I'm still endlessly frustrated with the damn things. Plus I love MIUI. I just wish the build quality was better on the gnexus and I hate samsung's placement of ****ing buttons. It's like they expect you to have the hands of a 4 year old and be able to hit the awkward side button while it's in your hand.
I think everyone who leaves this phone just to get AOSP is crazy... Eventually it will come. In the meantime, there are lots of great roms to try out in the meantime. If you have other problems, I completely understand. But cmon.... Just for a rom?

it helps that i can run a pretty functional cm9 on my sensation while i wait

Completely agree, their bootloader is WAY less fun. At least, if it's anything like the fascinate and the charge it consists of a down arrow with a yellow android that looks pretty while you use odin to flash everything since their bootloader is half-assed.
I also would like to say that I do love our devs, and this is not meant and is not me being frustrated with them, simply my luck with regards to getting a functioning device which has lead to a lot of frustration. Regardless of if I switch I still have another rezound that I have access to and can use whenever so I will still be active in this community... I am simply asking the opinions of people who have or have had both devices (IE Scotty). Hell I would take a shot at deving if I had the time, I have experience with linux and coding in Java and Lua. Anyway I do understand the frustration when people post things like the "HAHA I SOLD MY REZOUND *****ES" thread (my translation of the title) where they seem to be bragging/flaming rather than actually trying to consult the community.
I would like to say I don't particularly appreciate the assumptions that my devices could not have possibly needed to be replaced that many times legitimately. I just have had terrible luck with the replacements themselves, almost all have arrived defective if you read my explanation above. I have never bricked a phone and I'm not particularly fond of some of the stories where people go "ops I bricked it, lawls, hey Verizon my phone is dead send me a new one because I ****ed the damn thing up and enjoy committing fraud."

its a little better than that. you can use fastboot to do a few things,but it was still pretty devoid of any user interface,unlike hboot. radios were flashed in recovery. you unlock it pretty much just like the rezound,with exception that you dont need a token just fastboot oem unlock anhd voila you have access to everything.
I flashed nils business sense 2.8 sense 4 last week. It runs awesome, I love it. However since then all of a sudden, all the pics I have taken since the flash are no longer there. I even plugged the phone into the computer and they are gone. have accepted that many of my pics are gone. (I do have drop box, so that alleviates some of the missing pics)
I cannot get the kindle app to run. It works on my gtab, so I know it's not me. But I open it, select the book I am reading,and it comes right back to my home screen. I have in installed and installed a few times, deregistered it on amazon and reregistered it as well. Just frustrating that it's not working at all.
My last frustration is with the profiles, I have the phone on vibrate, yet it still rings, not good for work lol.
I even tried wiping everything and reflashing the entire Rom.
Any help would be great.

Sound like your having bad flash problem, the pictures sound like they got erased when you flashed the Rom.. try reflashing everything with a complete double wipe (cache,dalvik,factory,and system)As for kindle its been known not to work on alot of the sense 4 roms released lately as well as adobe.. I'm sur there will be a fix eventually.. as for the sound profiles I believe theirs more than one way to control your sound I.e. settings, quick. Settings, tweaks.. play with them all you might have one all the way up and the other down.. I hope any of this helps you..

Settings, tweaks.. play with them all you might have one all the way up and the other down.. I hope any of this helps you..

Try biz sense 3.6. I would think it would work.

Hey Guys,
Verizon is sending me a d inc to replace my messed up rezound
In your opinion, is this phone already outdated? or is it good enough to stick with for a while?
Thanks!

The Droid Incredible 4G LTE is a great phone. It's the perfect form factor at only 4 inches with a nice-sized and nice-looking display. 1GB of RAM is the current standard, which it has, and it supports microSD cards, which is no longer the standard but should still be. It runs Ice Cream Sandwich stock, and we're about to have S-OFF so we can install anything we want on it. I never lose connection to the network, and Wi-Fi works great at a decent range. There's nothing currently available that I would take over this phone.

I would not say it is outdated. However, how much you like it will depend on what you want in a phone. I bought the Dinc4g on release day and with the exception for no root (yet), I am happy with it.
The rest of my family have the Rezound. This phone is smoother, faster and smaller. All plusses for me. I want the 4" screen. They like the Rezound's bigger screen, but their battery life is awful.
With root right around the corner, this phone promises to be even better.

I went from a T-Bolt on VZW, to Sensation on TMOus and back to a DINC4 on VZW.
I was scared about speed and battery coming from those two phones.
Within a few days that was laid to rest.
Even with the factory bloat, it is faster and the battery lasts longer.
I too, coming from two prior 4.3 inch screen phones, like this form factor better than it's larger counterparts.
Very, very happy we made the switch.
Excited about S-Off, but this phone is a great device for me. I only want S-OFF to remove bloatware to be honest...and to get rid of the WiFi Nag.
Otherwise, out of the box this phone's a winner.

Agree with you. A whole lot of the smartphone community does not know what they are missing when it comes to the 4g3. It's a secret success. Root and s-off will be a nice bonus if it comes to pass.

Lol! I agree with all the comments. Great phone. Battery life is ok. Aside from bloatware and wifi symbol in your face, the only other slightly down side is lacking range of cases but Otterbox and me became friends on this model so I can't complain. I do like to accessorize from time to time but what I have now will have to do.

While you are waiting for s-off, you can disable the bloatware, if you feel so inclined.

You can disable almost all the bloat non-rooted....
Essentially its exactly like freezing in titanium backup except its a feature of stock android now. Very cool.

I too came from the Rezound as I sold mine, then bought this phone on my two year contract.
I love the size of this phone, it's perfect, IMO.
The INC2 is the same size 4', but this phone is more of a candy bar shape, much like the INC1, which I prefer.
As much as I feel it may be weird not being able to pull the battery when needed, I wish that this phone was made like the One Series phones, specifically the OneS, I love the build quality on the One S.
The Inc4 I use with no case and no screen protector and I don't feel nervous with it so it is built pretty nice, but IMO the INC2 is a bit more solid, especially the away the back door was on the INC2, on the INC4 it's pretty easy and squeaks a bit due to this. Nothing that was going to keep me from buying this phone though
I'll be on this phone for two years. I'll most likely end up using my brothers upgrade for the Incredible DIX and let him take my next upgrade. but I'll be on the Inc4 mainly even so as I couldn't use a 5' phone for a daily, it'll pretty much be my tablet, lmao.
Thanks to most of you for your help.
The Amaze has been replaced with an S3.
I spent way to many hours on that phone and with that being my 3rd HTC phone issue I will not be purchasing one again.
On a plus note it is for sale with a ballistic case/powerskin and galaxy S2 for $375.
Phone works fine but just cannot see recocery or bootloader.

I think I'll be following you close behind.
I gave up on this phone. But since all my latests phones were HTC I feel a bit orfan now...
I'm looking to move to a different brand but I can't stop thinking of HTC thinking of getting any other brand makes me feel like a traitor...
I've been lucky with the previous ones but this one is a different game, may be they come out with a good upgrade option from this one.

Congrats. I hope you are happy with your new phone. I've had none of the troubles that seem to plague the Amaze for some people on the Forum. I put the NRG ROM on first thing and have been happy ever since. It did take some tweaking to get the power profile right so it lasts all day.
I also have never had any real issues with this phone. I've used NRG for most of the last year. Combined with Faux kernels, my battery issues have been tamed. There has had a couple blips, to be expected when fooling around with non stock ROMS. Overall it's been very stable and trouble free.
I recently have been using Stock Deodexed, bloat removed, and faux's latest kernel. It definitely feels like the quickest Sense 3.6 Rom I've used, is very stable without any discernible lag, PLUS EVERYTHING WORKS!
I believe folks create more problems when flashing by not completely wiping, even for a restore. I'm even considering a second Amaze(or Sensation) for my wife. She has been clambering her phone is to slow.
HTC better get back to the removable battery and micro sd card if they want to reclaim a flagship handsets status.
Thirded! Also been running Faux and NRG and have had 0 issues with my phone. Love it and it's stability!

I was in the same situation but just one day the phone decided to start acting out and since thenthere is no rom, no kernel that works properly (not even stock ruu anymore) I guess I have hardware issues.
I don't even care about battery lasting since I have threeof them but it's really annoying when you try to pick up a call and you can't because the darn screen would not turn on.

Yeah, that sounds like a hardware issue. I saw on thread that fixed this by simply wiping the proximity sensor with a cloth. Probably not your issue, but did you try cleaning that?

I'm interested in the ROM you describe, but I don't see exactly which one it is in the development forum. Can you post a link?

Yes that was one of the first things I tried.
I've been doing different tests and it's still random but it's more frequent if I have it in my pocket and then I pull it out so I started to suspect it was related to service signal so I tried turning the screen on without the back cover installed and yes it seems worse that way but sometimes just to throw me off it does work.
I cannot find a solid pattern as to figure out what the problem is.
The only thing I can think of is just before this whole mess started, I was hooked with Hill climb racing game and playing it for quite a bit of time and remember feeling the phone getting pretty warm (more than I ever felt before) so I don't know if something blew up.
