The seconds timer. Everytime the number 1 appears (i.e., 41, 21, 31), it’s in Green and one of the “teaser” videos play in the background.

Nice touch, HTC.

Well Sansung announced they are infusing their R&D with a Billion dollars, and who knows what Google is going to innovate with Motorola. Now that Google has a company they can push innovation through and make money off of it instead of giving it away for free with Android. They can Still make Android awesome for their oem partners and Innovate on their own Platform as well for themselves. IMO I’ve never seen anything innovating about HTC, but I also have never seen or used the One series on Verizon. Hopefully HTC will push this device to all the carriers for maximum coverage

There is a DNA “security” update to be pushed to the DNA from vzw, I’m wondering if they are going to try and lock it up

It is rooted with an unlocked bootloader.. Has been since about a week after release.

Nvm…IncHD was code for Mecha was code for Thunderbolt. I wouldn’t expect the TB to get 3 major OS updates!

Yep leaders, as in first to have an 8mp camera (on VZW) in 2010. First to have LTE with TB 03/11. The One X with Design and capturing stills while recording or watching video. First to have 1080p display w quad core on the DNA. 5″ screen, w/ tight bezel and cascading edge, great form factor w/ built-in wireless charging.
Yes, I never said anything about their stock. I’ve had Inc., TB, Inc4G, and now DNA and Sense was never a battery killer as some say. The TB used quite a bit of battery using the Internet, but the others have good battery life. And each phone gets better and better battery life as technology improves. My average battery life on my stock DNA to date is 14.5 hrs! It and the M7 will be relevant for the rest of the year, they’re too advanced not to and technology isn’t moving THAT fast. Oh, and I have NO idea what the relocation of the Home button is all about if that’s indeed what they end up doing?

What I mean is rooted with an unlocked bootloader. Development is second to none on devices that have this. Simple themed ROMs don’t do it for me.

Leaders? Their stock is plummeting. Innovation? Like putting the home button on the right side of the screen? Hey, I had a DInc for two years, and it wasn’t terrible, and their hardware is pretty legit (most of the time), but Sense software is horrible and notorious for terrible battery life. Even though the DNA improved on that, it’s not even the best phone out at the moment. The M7 will be forgotten about by late summer, at the latest.

What is an Incredible HD?

That’s one way to look at it Booyah, but HTC are leaders in design and innovation and after the DNA and M7, it’s what the other guys will be trying to meet or best the rest of the year

But S-Off i more of a luxury as anything you need it for can easily be done with an extra minute or two

Why is it every time HTC is mentioned the Thunderbolt is brought up?

Do people hold the Charge against Samsung? The Statusphere against LG? The Bionic against Moto? Well maybe the Bionic.. Lol..

But seriously, it was the first LTE device, and had some growing pains. So did the Charge but no one brings up a 2+ year old phone when it comes to the Note or S3/S4.

Give it a rest.. It was a bust, I had one. If every companies image was based on their worst device no one would ever buy a new phone.

HTC….Best screen quality, best camera quality, better quality feel than Samsung devices. They can stay in my book.

Just because there is a logo there, doesn’t mean its a button

My EvoLTE has JB. I’m content. Having said that – I am all over this new phone when it comes out!!!
