I flashed the one that's linked in the first DAS BAMF thread (not remix) and haven't had any issues whatsoever.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] daddylonglegs:
One thing I just remembered while reading 1,000 different threads here, I read somewhere that it's possible to increase the overall volume of the Thunderbolt. Is this something doable inside of this BAMF Remix 1.8 ROM? Not just for the audio players in general, but everything. Thanks!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] HolyGrail:
Hi srbecker . I'm using the same as you (Das BAMF remix 1.8). The slide bar is a app in the market place called "Wave Launcher". As far as the color menu....I ended up making my own theme/battery/and changing the right icon on the dock.

I got a lot on my plate right now...but I guess when I have time I can put together a zip you can flash for the color menu.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bL33d:
does ur battery have percentage? im looking for a battery with no percentage and ur menu does look sweet aswell.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] srbecker:
Thanks a lot man. I would appreciate that and even be willing to shoot you a few bucks for your time. I look forward to hearing from you.

Gps taking dayysss. Issue from rom? Radio? Kernel? Gps program? What you guys using that is giving you snappy gps fix
[Thunderbolt Android Development] David 617:
I'm having same GPS issue. Takes forever to get a lock.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] blaine07:
Anyone be as kind to extract call recording app for me & post. It keeps FCing on me. I want to use the app but want to try reinstalling. Wouldnt mind the FC, but it happens right when a call comes in & causes phone to not ring and me missing the call.

Thanks a ton!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] HolyGrail:
No...no percentage. I like the smooth/clean look for my battery.

You both can try the radio I put together. GPS works great for me. Link is a page back.

Does anyone know where I can find the Verizon backup assistant app file?

Can someone please post a link or file so I can install on my phone.

Thanks.

I haven't been able to get Call Recorder to work since 1.6.3 Remix. That is why I am currently running 1.8 Stripped. The included kernel has support for it and I have not had a problem with it. If someone has it working I sure would like to know. I miss the Remix.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] HolyGrail:
Curious.....I originally went from Das BAMF 1.7 to Remix 1.8. Did a full wipe of data, cache. Call Recorder been working just fine on my end.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawa5636:
On Remix 1.8 coming from 1.6.2. Did full wipe of everything like 4 times through. Call recorder working fine here.

Is anyone able to install a second keyboard and use it? I just put the swiftkey beta on my phone and it's not working.. it just keeps using the stock HTC keyboard no matter what I do. I've tried disabling and enabling the keyboard but it does nothing. There isn't even an option to disable the stock keyboard..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] finestflip:
have you tried long pressing when you try to text?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] chykal:
I was on 1.7 Remix when it didn't work.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] chykal:
Where were you guys when I was posting all over the place looking for an answer...lol. Searching didn't help either...I was bummed. I love the Remix. Maybe I will have to give it a try. Thanks!

You guys interested in having mr 2.x radio support in the rom?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] blaine07:
Stupid question- What good comes from it? Better battery life? Is it going to make us at brick risk like current GB folks, or was that issue solved & I missed it?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrynalyne:
If you turn on your phone, you are a brick risk.

1. It allows you to switch to and fro GB without flashing radios.

2. I find my GPS is better.

3. It cured my reboots.\4. Unlike other MR2 roms, you can use custom kernels.

I'm trying to switch to my beloved SwiftKey keyboard ? I'll miss this beautiful skin on the included keyboard though..

I did search the thread but may have missed something. Help. Installed it and set as the active keyboard, but no change.

So folks with the new 1.8 and MR2 radio, how's battery life so far? Same as before or better or worse?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] richpadg:
So, with 1.8.6, you have to use the MR2.x radio? Is there any risk in doing this? And, is the only reason for this release is the ability to use this radio?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jbeezybaby:
Was curious if anyone has a flashable mod to give a fully transparent status bar for this Rom. My favorite Rom so far. Great work.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Radio with BAMF 1.8?

So who is using the MR2 or MR2.5 radio with the newest release of the BAMF remix? I just switched from Liquid Thundersense and like this ROM much better (especially all the add-ons; red notifications, carbon keyboard, toolkit, ect). However I have noticed my battery life is a little less than previously.

Will flashing this radio help?

Sorry to ask a stupid question but what are the steps to flash the radio? Can't seem to find a walkthrough? Just put the file on my SD card and then what?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Ok nevermind, I found it.

But before I do, any recommendations? Should I use MR2 or MR2.5?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've never flashed a radio before, only ROMS and other add-ons.

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] EisBlade:
Not trying to be sarcastic but you are going to have to try both radios yourself. There have been mixed results across TB's and app combinations.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Ok, I don't have a problem trying both. Just curious if I am really going to notice any major improvements over the stock radio? Is there anyway to check which version I have? I remember when I originally rooted my Thunderbolt I had to apply a new PG05img.zip file?

I have baseband version 1.16.00.0223r
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Now is it true since I flashed the newest version of Bamf 1.8 that I have a newer radio? Man this is confusing...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Hockeypuck55:
If you haven't done this:

1. Download and rename to PG05IMG.zip

2. Place on root of SD card

3. Flash from hboot

Then you still have the stock radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
I did all of that back when I originally rooted but havent since then.

Anyway I just downloaded the MR2 radio and applied it through HBoot. After restarting my phone it appears that it isn't working properly. Cant make any calls and am not getting any 3G service. Perhaps I should try MR2.5?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
My phone just says "no service". I verified the MD5 sums and everything. I'm running DAS Bamf 1.8 and the Imoseyen lean kernel? What could be causing this problem? From what I read the MR2 was the radio that seemed to be working best? Did I do something wrong?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] QUIK_LS1:
I'm pretty sure you need to be running the new 1.8.6 and not 1.8 for the MR2. x radios.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kgbrown247:
i love this rom! many thanks devs. just came from a dx1/dx2 and they have never keep the level of snappiness that this rom and tbolt provides.. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Hockeypuck55:
What he said. MR2 and MR2.5 will not work on 1.8.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] labratss:
Cant run MR2 or 2.5 with 1.8
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BennyJr:
Downloading now. Once again..thanks butch. I wonder if the matted theme would work...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] philhyde:
Glad to hear 1.8.6 is compatible with MR2.5.

Been running BAMF 2.1, and loving GB, but I am having proximity sensor issues. While using the phone, screen doesn't shut off properly and often locks (buttons won't work).

So I'm thinking about going back to 1.8.6 if this is not an issue with Froyo....
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mzimand:
This is the best rom I have tried. I have not had one problem and everything works. I know that the benchmarking apps are not all that accurate but this rom gets the best scores in every test. I have fun trying other roms but this is my daily driver.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DigitalSileR:
AMAZING!

was waiting patiently for this, thanks again!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] GeekDrop:
Loving 1.8.6 Remix so far as my first ever custom ROM. Any chance of tweaking the custom lock screen to align the characters on the slider better? it looks like they just need to be moved down a row or two.

I'm also using the patch that removes the Verizon text and AM/PM form the lock screen which may be why it misaligned it. Here's a screenshot:

Edit: Looks like it also doesn't play nice w/the red colored 3G/4G patch by zhp pilot, it reverted back to white after this patch. :/
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Dat108Kat:
Out of curiosity...the themed keyboard on GingerRemix 2.1 is awesome! I was wondering why you don't apply the same look to your other remixes

Edit: a .zip to flash in cwm would be cool

2nd edit: the rosie is dope too!

Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] incredibler:
anyone having issues with the launcher icons, just flashed after full wipe, cache and dalvik and battery stats, and where the phone icon should be there is also the word phone and the weather animations are really messed up, like huge cubes, verified md5 sum, I'm redownloading now to see if that can fix it.

Just to make sure I flashed this rom, 2.5 radio and latest dream kernel, can I use the GB kernels with this rom or no?

EDIT: just had to download the rosie patch from 1.7 doh!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] itsmejson:
installed 1.8.6 last night!

so far so good, i think my battery life has improved.

will know by the end of the day.

i usually get each day on 1 charge: 14hrs uptime/4.5hrs awake

will this work for the new official MR2 update that

verizon is supposed to be pushing out shortly?

androidcentral: http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-thunderbolt-reboot-update-finally-appears-be-imminent

battery update: used the phone the whole day until about 3%

battery life improved for my uptime

- with this rom installed I got 15hrs uptime/4.5hrs awake on a

single charge
[Thunderbolt Android Development] haggisman14:
Installed 1.8.6 last night. Was running 1.6.3 previously. Running much faster now, and better battery life. I also flashes the new MR2 radio after installing, and 4g/3g switching is just about instant, an$more importantly, I FINALLY get an exact lock in mu GPS location!

Keep up the great work...the updated should toolkit is awesome, love the splash/boot ani's, and the easy way to swap fonts...

I think that's the proximity sensor going active.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] GoldenCyn:
In 1.8.6 mr2 edition, I noticed the 4G icon does not light up ALL the time when data is being sent or received. It does light up, but not all the time.

I could be downloading and app from the market and I see the app progress bar move but the 4G icon looks idle. Happens sometimes, but it's annoying.

Using latest OTA MR2 radio (625r/627r)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xCHPx:
Is the stripped froyo ROM being updated to support mr2+ radios?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BoulderGeek:
Can anyone confirm, with 1.8.6 should I be able to update to the 1.12.605.6 CDMA/LTE radio combo:

CDMA Radio version: 1.16.00.0223r

LTE radio version that came with 1.12.605.6

aka

http://www.multiupload.com/V2ED7Y5EU2

When I try, it says Installation Aborted. Everything else went fine with my rooting and unlocking.

At this point, on a fresh install, and factory reset, I have no radios at all, only WiFi.

EDIT: resolved. Thanks for the comments. I had bad radio and inverted install order.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gsubrandon:
You can use Mr2, Mr2.5 with 1.8.6.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BoulderGeek:
Interesting, I could not flash the combo OTA Radio pack, but I could flash the Official OTA MR2 Radio 1.39.00.0627r [7/8/2011] from thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160346

Now, after toggling LTE off and on a few times, I got 4G LTE to sync, and pull 21Mbit to SLC.

All seems really good, so far. Hoping battery is better, and data use is less (without the Verizon bloatware)!

i flashed the new radio friday night w/ this rom and

everything seems to be running great.

Coming from a Nexus One. Just rooted the Thunderbolt and getting ready to flash the Bamf Remix 1.8.6. Rom. Very excited about this new phone and my question is probably dumb but does the MR2 radio come with this Rom or do I need to flash the radio after the Rom. For some reason while I was reading about the new remix I thought it said it comes with the MR2 radio and the over clockable Kernel. Hopefully someone can set me straight.

PS

One other question, can the MR2 radio be flashed to the stock unrooted Thunderbolt Rom???? My brother is having some issues with his 4G and thought the MR2 radio might resolve his problem.

Thanks for any help.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Viper Daimao:
no, the mr2 radio does not come with the rom, you need to flash it before you do the rom (but you can flash it after also, you just won't be able to get any cellular data after you flash the rom.

If your brother is stock and unrooted, he can just get the radio via the OTA update. There were some pre-release radios floating around here but the newest one is the one released via the over the air update on the 8th.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] vinnyjr:
Thanks, does that mean that the MR2 radio is already on the Thunderbolt if it had received the OTA update on the 8th? Which means if you flash the BAMF Remix 1.8.6 you won't have to flash the MR2 radio because you already have it?? Thanks for helping me out. One more thing, I always had to flash the google apps as a 2ndary flash because Cyanogen doesn't have the Gapps with his roms. Does the BAMF Roms allready have all Google apps in his Rom? I looked thru most of his rom and saw it had google maps, just double checking. Thanks again from a 1st time Thunderbolt user.

PS Where on the stock Rom can I find what radio I have???

OK with this version my laptop connects much faster. The bolt sees it and gives it an ip but I still cant get anywhere. It looks like as soon as my laptop connects my 4g lte icon goes away and doesn't come back until after I close wireless tether. When it is connected I can ping the gateway address so my laptop is connecting to the phone it just cant get out because data is dropping.

Update. The 4g icon is there and data works fine with wireless tether running but as soon as anything connects to it 4g drops and comes back then drops and repeats over and over and data on the phone does not work either when anything is connected. As soon as I close wireless tether everything starts working again.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sdorn77:
No, all you can make it do is launch a single app. Before when the launcherkey app was assigned to it you could make a shortcut menu pop up with 8 apps. That is what we want back.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dsb9938:
And you don't think making it run Launchkey is what you want?

Genius.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dsb9938:
Testing a possible conflict with another app, will report back soon.

Tether Fix

This should not be necessary on the regular (non-remix) version:

Tested a short while ago.

[11:16] <@Adrynalyne> flash remix

[11:16] <@Adrynalyne> run the patch (http://adrynalyne.grdlock.net/bamf/patches/tether_fix.zip)

[11:16] <@Adrynalyne> or

[11:17] <@Adrynalyne> delete system/bin/sh

[11:17] <@Adrynalyne> and rename system/bin/sh0 to system/bin/sh

[11:17] <@Adrynalyne> and reboot

[11:17] <@Adrynalyne> Thats all that need be done

[11:17] <@Adrynalyne> thats it

If you are on non-remix, or still have an issue after this, it is something else causing it, not the ROM.
