Got my Droid Incredible and need help!
So far it really IS incredible.. except I cant figure out a few things...
1. How do I lock the phone before throwing it in my bag? Do i just press the Power/Lock button on top? If so does this shut off the phone or can I still recieve calls etc.
2. How do I stop the phone from going into sleep mode or whatever it does? My alarm never went off this morning bc the phone seemed like it was off or in sleep mode.
I think thats it for now. Thanks for your help!

Re: Got my Droid Incredible and need help!
I don't have the phone, but I do have an Android phone and am assuming that things are pretty similar.
You are correct about how to lock the screen. Just tap the button on the top and the screen goes blank. Not sure why your alarm didn't go off unless your phone was completely off. If it's in sleep mode the phone will ring and the alarm will go off as well.
To change the sleep mode, you need to go into settings - screen timeout.
From there you can change it anywhere from 15 seconds to 10 minutes, or change it to never turn off. But an FYI... if you never turn it off or have it timeout after a long time like 10 minutes, it definitely will wear on your battery.

Re: Got my Droid Incredible and need help!
1. button on top locks it
2. in the alarm settings, there's an option to get it to play alarm while phone is in sleep mode. 
Isn't it awesome!

Re: Got my Droid Incredible and need help!
Thanks! Is there a setting on the phone so that the phone doesn't go into sleep mode automatically? or that i can just push the middle button to wake it up.. not the button on the top (if that makes any sense!)
