I am having a tough time deciding which phone to upgrade to. I love the look of the samsung fascinate but i also heard the droid incredible is pretty good too. I have the droid eris right now. I thought maybe some of you could give your opinion and insight so I can decide which to get.
Thanks in advance!
Go for the Droid Incredible...you won't regret it....

Has anyone seen the adds for the Charge? It's claiming it's the first DROID on Verizon infused with 4G. I thought that was the Thunderbolt. So what technically makes an android phone a DROID?

I'd say money and contracts. Verizon initially had the Motorola DROID and HTC DROID Eris, then the HTC DROID Incredible, along with other Motorola variations of the DROID. Now it's Samsung's turn at getting the DROID label. Maybe HTC decided it wasn't worth the extra premium to slap the label onto the Thunderbolt.
Of course, this is purely speculation on my part.

its just a special name for certain verizon phones. it technically is the first droid with 4g since the thunderbolt doesnt have the droid name. theres really nothing special about a phone having the droid name. i thought wen the og droid came out maybe the verizon droid phones will have stock android since the og droid did. but once the eris, incredible, x and then the 2 came out i was obviously incorrect.

Because the tb isnt a POS? I was using the charge and it was terrible :/ ... tbolt ftw!
Also would you have have Droid Mecha or the Thunderbolt?
Though... the first 1 sounds better xD, also the droid branding isnt my fav compared to stock htc stuff
Kind of like the Evo series on sprint.. Verizon has their Droid series

New sub-forum for the Droid Mecha.
Likely the TB doesn't carry the Droid moniker because HTC didn't want to pay George Lucas the licensing fees to use the name
I thought anything Blur based was givin' the "Droid" name. Could be wrong.

Droid is a brand name used by Verizon. It has nothing to do with blur. The og Droid was a Google Expierence device. The Droid Eris, and Incredible ran sense, Droids D2, and X ran motoblur, and Droid charge runs touchwiz.

The Droid name is to help market a device. The Charge needs the Droid moniker to make it seem like a different beast than other phones and push it better. The Thunderbolt is an HTC made device and is Verizon's first 4G device. It doesn't need the Droid name, it'd be a waste of resources.

I've always thought that the Droid name was given to top tier Verizon Android phones that are exclusive to VZW in the US.. For example, the Fascinate was certainly one of the best Android phones on Verizon when it was released, but it was also on every other carrier.
The Droid Charge is unique to Verizon.
The TBolt is pretty much an Evo 4G with LTE.
The Charge doesn't seem worthy of the DROID name, IMHO.
Maybe OT but, I personally hate it when people refer to ANY Android phone as a "Droid". It gets my blood boiling for some reason...

Ok...this is why I said "I could be wrong." Because I wasn't sure. Thanks for clarifying

They're all droids to me.
You have a berry, iphone, or droid.
this is not a signature I type it in every time it may be sent from my computer or my phone.

Hi, Im wondering how to remove the red "developer" text from the splash screen on my moms one s? (s4)
Its S-OFF and is de-branded, so im sure its possible, but ive only found workarounds for the One V and EVO 4G LTE

Is it really that big a deal for the inherent risk.
If you mess it up, you are off your Mom's Holiday/Birthday list
No risk, no fun. :laugh:
