Does any one know if the speaker from the evo is compatible with our phone. They look the same in pics of the part but part number is different. Maybe it can take a little more abuse.

I'm not sure if it's compatible, but i'm sure it won't make any difference at all. What do you mean by a little more abuse? Have you blown the speaker on yours?
It went right after I rooted with skyraider 2.0 now on 3.0. Seemed like the sound from Droid startup animation did it but probably just my imagination. I have 5 replacements ordered just trying to look ahead.

If you are using a custom kernel try switching back to the stock kernel for awhile and see if it goes away. I've noticed some songs with heavy bass lines will distort when using a kernel with the audio level tweaked.
I almost broke a pair of hundred dollar blue tooth headphones because I thought they were busted only to find out it sounded the same on a pair of regular headphone that I knew were good
If u have insurance on ur phone u can take it to Sprint and they will replace it free. Even if ur rooted. Also if u don't have insurance its 35 bucks
Ignorance is bliss but servitude is its partner
Be careful having your phone around any kind of metal machining/grinding work. The magnet in the speaker will attract any metal dust/particles nearby and the holes in the battery cover and mesh over the speaker opening are too big to stop the smaller stuff. I'm on my third back speaker because of this. Luckily they're easy to change and the place I ordered from sells a minimum quantity of 5 per order.

Pretty sure it was a sarcastic joke. If both your phone and your friends phone sound bad, more than likely it isn't a physical problem with the speaker, and if you aren't running the exact same custom kernel, that probably isn't the issue either.
If they speaker never sounded good to you, it is simply that you are just noticing that the 1/2" cell phone speaker sounds like a dog turd, which is sadly to be expected.
The EVO speaker is one of the best phone speakers I have ever heard, most are smaller and even more tinny sounding.
Went to sprint about my speakers and they are giving Me a new one for free......

Ok I called powermat and asked about wireless charging for the Dinc, they had the balls to tell me that they had no plans to make a kit for the Dinc! I know that Duracell makes the mygrid and I have heard of people using the Droid charger on the Dinc, wanted to know if anybody on here has or if anybody else feels like me..
It sucks but its not a popular enough phone for them... He was just being honest instead of giving a round about answer

I'm not sureifnot popular enough is the right phrase. As this phone was impossible to get for fivemonths its probably a little behind on accessories like this.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Well i mean the phone was massively popular for a bit then a lot of people myself included just didnt wanna wait to get the phone and i know a bunch of my friends got other droids instead.

Easy answer: Supply and demand.
I like the idea of wireless charging but I don't like having to switch cases every time.

Probably.
Why didnt you just take the phone to a sprint store? Your phone has a 1 year warranty for hardware defects like this.
Depends on where you got your speaker from. Was it O.E.M.? I installed one that I purchased and it sounded like ish, so I bought another. I've since replaced it 2 more times and finally got an O.E.M. one from a member here on xda. There really isn't a "wrong" way to put it in.
Sent from "The EVO" using XDA Premium
There is a wrong way lol when you assume the numbers go right side up you make that mistake. I did that the first time then fixed it. They don't seem as loud but they are clear. I'm still wondering about it though. Bought them from Gc something company. Five of them.

Well yea, there is that way, lol. As long as the contacts are touching you're good. Not hard though. Pretty straight forward.
The music doesn't sound nice like it did in September. Any solutions or do the speakers just suck?

Honestly, I wish I could tell you. This last one I put in was a factory speaker straight from another Evo, O.E.M., and it still doesn't sound right. I know its in right, and the same speaker. It does sound better than the bootleg aftermarket one I bought tho.

Seems to be full of trolls, but I thought it was interesting our beloved Dinc2 is still getting press on one of the bigger technology blogs.
Lack of HDMI out was a big disappointment for me. Other than that, maybe more internal storage. Still a sweet black slab...
Move the damn volume buttons from the left side to the right side.
Move the power button to the left. Much easier for right handed people to press.

So far, I think there's nothing I'd change other than like mentioned above, move the power button.
Sent from my rooted MIUI Dinc2
Agreed for the power button. Using the "power button ends call" feature is kinda tough on the inc2.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
What would I change? BLOAT! Hardware wise though it's pretty much perfect. I had a fascinate before this and the only thing I is the amoled screen.
Yada yada tapped
Dual core?

It's funny - I'm right handed, and I think the power button is in a perfect spot. I usually hold the phone with my left hand and use my right thumb or index finger to perform actions. The button is in a perfect spot for my left index finger. My girlfriend has a Droid X, which has a power button further to the left, and I can't stand it. Guess it comes down to personal preference.
Anyway, I'd agree with the poster who mentioned the bloat, which is pretty absurd on the stock firmware. Not really an issue for those of us who are rooted, but definitely the biggest drawback for the average user looking at the Dinc2.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App
I'm perfectly happy with the position of the buttons and the lack of hdmi out.
The only thing I'd like is to have a stronger antenna. That's pretty much it.
better antenna and i'd be happy
No really big issues. I think 2gb internal storage is a little small. I think 8gb would of been great. However, I'm not sure how much of difference 1gb of ram would make. Otherwise, I OC it and its way faster than my old Eris. LOL

I also have an Eris, but we were lucky to have so much support on that phone. It held up for being one of the originals..
I like the Dinc2 pretty much the way it is.CPU is good enough (for now) it has enough RAM (for now) and the front facing camera is a major plus. A better antenna would be nice but their working on experiments with foil and conductive paints on one of the threads I saw here on XDA, and its only a matter of time before someone figures out a valid improvement.. I like the screen size and clarity. My Mother got a Nexus S 4g (which is an awesome phone, but has bad battery life, but she wont root it so....) but when i put my phone side by side with hers, the Dinc2 screen is so much better..
Signal on this phone SUCKS! Compared to an X2 its like comparing a child to an adult, and I have tried all those "experiments" myself, and none of them helped... Other than that, no complaints...

Antenna, headphone jack sucks!!, charging port is loose, back cover doesn't hug as tight as it could. In my opinion it isn't put together as well as it could be. But don't execute me for stating this;-)

Sounds like you have a bad one. Mine is great. The port is tight, the battery door is tight too.

So I just tried to use my headphones with the headphone jack. I tried two different pairs, one with an inline mic and one without. Both of them work, they just feel like they will slide out of the jack with no effort, and actually do come out with a slight tug on the cord.
Is this an issue or is it normal? If its an issue, I just got the phone today, would this be covered under a warranty of some sort? (Its the blue variant)

Edit.
Misread ok if you feel they are to lose then take it back. If you have to tug on them they should be fine. I would guess they would have to be kinda easy to pull out so not to cause damage to the connector

Normal. The One headphone jack doesn't have the "grip" that a lot of other phones have. My friend said the same thing, he thought his was defective.

I called and spoke with HTC and the rep recommended that I take it back since the phone is only 5 days old. Walked into Best Buy, explained what happened, 30 minutes later, I'm on my way with a properly functioning One.
