Verizon just started pushing Android 2.2 to HTC Incredible devices. Incredibles will get even incredilber with Flash 10.1, 720p video recording, and mobile hotspot capabilities. [Verizon]
BGR is reporting that the Verizon HTC Droid Incredible is going to receive a software update to Android 2.2 Froyo by the end of July or early August. Originally, there was going to be a minor update that would’ve brought 720p video recording to the Incredible, but it looks like that update will be rolled in with the bigger, much more tantalising Android 2.2 software update.
HTC’s Droid Incredible is soon to receive an update adding a couple of new features – most notably an upgrade to its video recording tool which adds support for saving movies at 720p resolution. The update also lets the Incredible function as a 3G mobile hotspot.
We said it was the “best Android phone you can buy on Verizon” when we reviewed it, but if you insist on rooting it – now’s your time, courtesy of the guys at Unrevoked. [Unrevoked - Thanks, Max!]
Specs? Leaked. Carrier? The VZW. Release date? It’s the 29th. The only remaining unknown for Verizon’s Droid Incredible, a Snapdragon-powered Android 2.1 handset from HTC, was the price, which was today pegged at $US200. Oh, and pre-orders start Monday.
Ooh, this is something unexpected. That Incredible phone that’s been knocking around for months now will be part of the Droid line-up, launching with Verizon Wireless on April 29th.
