The owners of the HTC Droid Incredible 2 handsets should see the notification of the latest OTA firmware update asking to tap “OK” button on their display panels. If you haven’t seen the notification on your handset just yet, then you can always initiate it and down the 29.335MB update by checking for it manually by doing so under the Android settings menu, by having a proper Wi-Fi connection. For this you need to head over to Menu –> Settings –> Software Update –> Check Now –> and tap Restart & Install button. This work should force the update to come your way, and the update downloading and installation process should start now.
