I'm so happy to see CM7 love for the Thunderbolt... I'm tempted to flash this now but I rely so heavily on GPS I might wait until that gets ironed out.

So does the prerelease mean ril was successfully merged? Also, do you think now that we have this build, nightly builds are here or will come shortly?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
No, this is just a build that Slayher put together for us; RIL hasn't been merged yet.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jr313:
Thank you SO MUCH to Slayher and everyone else that helped out! and all i can say is GOOD BYE SENSE!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Cubs2008:
Can't believe we already have a CM7 release. Thanks for this guys. I use LTE at work but live in 3G so I may just flash this at home tonight and see how it runs. I have a hard time giving up the LTE radio since I stream a lot of video here (although I could always do that on wifi but I don't like eating up the bandwidth.)

Again thanks for the hard work!

Anyone else having issues with the Facebook app? It fo'c'sle on almost everything. Chat seems to world and notification and feed. Everything throws a fc. Unistalled reinstalled fixed permission nothing seems to fix it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SubliminalME:
So far so good! Just installed and on 3g right now. Made a call with no issue as well.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] m00nshake:
Thanks for clarifying... And thanks to Slayher for giving us this build...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Carsten4207:
All I can say is Thank you!

You dont know how great it feels to finally run a clean stock ASOP ROM.

You dont know how much I hate HTC Sense and their UI.

Link me your Paypal and I will donate.

I went back to VirusROM for the time being. Unfortunately, the battery level would only update upon reboot. Other than that it worked rather well!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MechaMorph:
So far everything working correctly minus GPS and 4G. The lack of 4G is probably a deal breaker for me.

I'm trying a few things right now to see if I can get 4G back. I can't go back to 3G after using 4G for so long. The speed difference is just too much.

I will say this though it's nice to see CM again. I can't believe how much snappier CM7 feels versus the Sense filled crap (don't get me wrong the ROMs are great but Sense is Sense and Sense is crap) we have to run right now.

Slayher, you and toastcfh have done a great job on this. Pretty solid over-all for a pre-alpha. Can't wait to see something slightly more polished.

I use my phone as a media player. That one speaker business needs to be fixed STAT!

...and thanks for getting this out! ;-)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Aerogriff:
Gotta love 4g. Downloaded in under a minute. Time to flash and have some fun ^.^
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DigitalDementia:
Uninstall updates. My gf was getting annoyed with that too and she uninstalled updates and problem solved. So I would recommend finding an older apk if possible.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrKleen1:
I'm sorry but this is why Motorola doesn't want people modifying their phones. Because when they realize they don't know what they are doing they send the phone back to get another one.

There was never a time that you couldn't have fixed your X had you known what you were doing. Maybe it was a learning curve for you, but you should not rip off your providers while you learn....

If you are not willing to eat the price of the phone if you ruin it you shouldn't be modifying it. And you certainly shouldn't be messing around when you have no idea what you are doing.

Sorry, just my opinion.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] shanetrain:
Observations.....

Been running this since last night, and all morning.

My observations, so far:

I am not in a 4g area, but, I do have the LTE On/Off app from the market, and I do not have the option to switch to 4g/LTE in the app that I had previously.

Working:

Using Audiogalaxy, have been streaming all morning, on 3g, no hiccups at all.

No issues with themes or wallpapers staying set.

No issues with syncing accounts.

Weather data and clock are accurate.

No force closes so far, but have not tested alot of apps.

Calls working.

SMS and MMS working.

Wifi working. (see related issue below)

Camera working.

Not working/odd:

Charging LED is always green, never Amber, doesn't matter what percentage I am at.

No GPS.

I use desk speakers via the headphone jack, only 1 channel is working.

Wifi keeps spontaneously turning itself on.

Also, as an aside, the battery seems to run hot on this thing. Currently at 40.7 celsius.

*Update* I went back to VR. Phone was getting way too warm. 46.1 degrees celsius, at the time I reverted back.

I am using the 1.16.00.0223r Baseband Radio, which was reccomended by the OP.

My appreciation goes out to slayher, great job on a Pre-Alpha!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:
Daaaannngggg. For an pre-alpha build, it is running very smoothly for me. I'm not in an LTE area, and I really just wanted to see CM7 in action, so I left the leaked radio image installed...so far, 3G is working for me. I'll post any issues I find.

Great job, slayher!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ajftl:
Ofcourse sense camera its out of here right? CM camera app? And don't tell me u like better aosp camera app better than sense cause u frikin lying lol. I agreed with. Sense being crap and all that but it sure have some cool features like for example uploading a video to your facebook straight up and cause we have 4g its a faster upload

I Like cm and All but get boring... Recording audio using cm is crappy too.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PWEB18:
i do the same...patience haha. btw i have the same isp as you (speedtestin your sig)

This withdrawal from flashing nightlies is worse than quitting smoking.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n2imagination:
ok going to give this a whirl coming from bamf. can someone give me a link to the radio that I should be using for best results. Thanks ahead of time for any help.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Here ya go: http://www.multiupload.com/V2ED7Y5EU2
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gohamstergo:
could you tell us what version that is? best to know b4 just d/ling and flashing.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emarusamun:
On the video sound issue its hit and miss for me it seems. Made 5 videos earlier and only the last 1 had audio. Maybe something is just not always being triggered to turn sound recording on. Idk. It works but its 1 in 5, so im Gonna call it broken.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Farva0412:
My radio is 0402w_1 is that okay for running this? And is there mobile hotspot

"#CM7 #Tbolt Still working on Video recording mic bug. Wifi should be fixed. 3g/4g swapping still looking into also. Thats it for now. " from slayher on twitter tonight.

Sent from my Gingerbread CM7 goodness Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Matt Devo:
the main issue I'm having is that none of my settings seem to take. I go in and change anything (lockscreen type, ringtone, etc), then go back and re-enter the page and the setting I've changed/toggled has reverted. This is with CM7 test4 after a clean wipe and permissions fixed from CWR.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
Thanks for sharing that. I don't look at my Twitter much so I tend to never see stuff like that unless if its posted here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Are any of you having to do the cdma / evdo trick every time you reboot in order to get 4G?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
This is stock radio. Straight from adryns page.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Helltoupee:
Upgraded from OG Droid to Thunderbolt. Sometimes I just download and flash Winners CM7 build just to get a little flashing fix. I check this page at least a few times a day hoping for a new build. I think I need a 12 step program but I don't think it should be called Flashers Anonymous. Hi my name is Charlie and I am a flasher ? Might get taken wrong ?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jr313:
LMMFAO!!! Im a "FLASHER" also...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
yea finally got it to work. took me a week to get 4g to work but finally got it. wifi used to work but now i get wifi error or it connects with no bars and disconnects.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kkozma:
I ultimately had to switch back to another ROM, which SUCKS. But, I just couldn't deal with the constant data drops and wifi issues anymore. :(

Can't wait for a new build to try out again! I seriously cannot take this sense garbage.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Well you will be happy to know that slayher said he is pretty sure he fixed the wifi issues and is now working on mic during video recording then 3g/4g. The next build released is gunna be a biggie.

If he does fix everything I just said I think that this ROM will be 100% ready to go primetime unless someone wants to fill me in on any more problems they have come by.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
any one else having problems with vpn my pptp connection instantly disconnects
[Thunderbolt Android Development] droidholic:
This rom is pretty awesome. However, I had to switch back to another rom for now due to the fact that while on this rom, I am not able to use any VoIP/SIP apps, like SipDroid or CsipSimple. I use these apps to make a lot of calls, which saves me money on both local and international calls. However, while using CM7 with these apps, the mic would not work. I could hear the other party but they could not hear me. I am hoping that a fix for the video recording mic bug would help resolve this issue for me. Until then, I'll be using another rom:-(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psufan5:
If he fixes 3G/4G and mic, im set.. I never use wifi.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Has anyone played with the FM radio? When using a headset, sometimes after I turn off the FM radio I can't get any audio-out to the headset (speakers) until I reset.

Then sometimes it turns off and audio-out works fine, so go figure..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] richB7:
Yeah, I'll be back in too. I hardly switch to wifi either. With the 4g speed I get, it's typically not worth the effort.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
ROM seems to be close! I believe this is how it is, but wanted to check...

I can only send MMS, not receive. Also, geolocation seems to be sketchy. It said I was in Lithuania! Everyone else have this problems?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
No, I can send and receive MMS and my geolocation is spot on. Perhaps run a fix permission in CWR.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
Ok, I'll have to give it a try. Is that pretty easy to do? Also, one other question. Why when I click on the "TEST 4" download link on the first page, I download:

update-cm-7.0.0-RC0-Thunderbolt-KANG-signed-test3.zip

Shouldnt this be "...test4.zip"??

EDIT: Nevermind, I did some research and found that TEST3 is really TEST4. The original build had no number.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] busterbrown77:
Oh gawd. Not this again....

It is the way it is... just leave it at that. That is test 4, its just named 3.

On another note... Hate to be that guy but has anyone heard any updates on another release? I hate to ask etas but its been forever since the last update...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] meirg:
There was no test 3 released, so maybe the link should say 3.. Either way, it's the latest version :-)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
Before the flaming begins... This has been explained at least 25 times in this lengthy thread. Programmers use zero based counting. So test1 was named test (or test0), test2 = test1, test3 = test2, etc. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] busterbrown77:
Agree... My Incredible is looking pretty good right now... :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
Well, I tried that, and still it thinks I'm in Vilnius, Lithuania!! When I go to maps, it shows I'm in the correct spot, but just says its Vilnius! Very strange!!

If anyone else has any other ideas, please let me know!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Go to the market and get GPS status. Under tools, select clear GPS cache, and then download aGPS data. Go outside for a few minutes and get a GPS lock and then it should be good to go.

If you're still having issues and its just a certain app, go under manage apps and clear its cache and make sure you have it set up correctly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcporter80:
Can you send MMS while on WiFi? I can receive MMS all the time, and I can send MMS while on 3G, but as soon as I switch to Wifi, it will not send MMS.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] J2theMatt:
I ran into this issue on CM7 nightlies on my DInc.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
I tried that and it worked great for maps and gpsstatus. Locked on right away when standing outside. However when I check apps like Beautiful Widgets and Weatherbug, it still thinks I'm in Lithuania!! I tried clearing data (cache isnt selectable). Must be just me!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tommyboy2034:
Searching on 4G isn't returning a decently filtered result set, so I'm gonna ask a question that has been asked before.

Has anyone figured out a fool proof way to get 4g to work?

I'm running stock radio, test 4, and imo's battery saver.

I recall seeing something about flashing a sense rom, selected lte, then flashing cm7 to get it to work, i tried that a while back and it didn't work so was wondering if anything new has come up that I've missed?

Again, apologies for re-post, would be nice if initial landing page had tips and tricks around the bugs so we don't have to search through the thousands of posts.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Ok, I use Weatherbug Elite. Under settings -> my Location, I have My Location and Use Network checked, and Follow Me and GPS unchecked.

Try that out.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] krickatthedisco:
im really excited to use this as my daily driver but i just cant get 4g to work. i tried all of the radios and all of the different methods of turning lte off and rebooting, fixing permissions, etc. anyone have any other ideas?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lect1984:
switch to CDMA/EVDO (Auto), wait for 3G, then switch to CMDA/LTE. test your connection by opening a webpage to see if you are still connected after switching to CDMA/LTE. if you are, then you're good to go. let your phone sit for 5 minutes, and you should be connected to 4g within that time frame. if you lose data, repeat the switching process. works for me when i need 4G for app downloads.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
Yea, I have the same exact settings with Weatherbug Elite. Thanks for trying tho.

Makes no sense! Like I said, it displaying correctly where I'm at on the map, just says it's Vilnius!

Again, thank you for trying!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
Not sure if this helps, but my baseband is 1.16.00.0402w_1
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dmbfan13:
Looking at it a little closer with the app "Cell Tower Locator", it seems it thinks the cell tower is in Lithuania and correctly finds me in my location with GPS on. If that makes any sense...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] chadstone30:
It once put me in Dededo, Guam. Which I did not know existed at the time.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Same..

For now, I'd just set a location manually so that at least its something relevant to you.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Is update-cm-7.0.0-RC0-Thunderbolt-KANG-signed-test3.zip the latest test version? I clicked on test 4 link and it downloaded this.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
Then contribute to the effort instead of whining.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] deltwalrus:
Yup, and it would be even shorter still, if people read the information in the thread before posting the same questions over and over (not just this one, though this is the favorite one to pick on, it would seem).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DS36:
After about two weeks with this as my daily driver. I finally have GPS working, 4G working. Plus a few small mods a swear it feels like I flashed a stable or RC. Very happy.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] deltwalrus:
Jealous! Details! Kernel, settings, methods, etc. What were you running before flashing this, since that seems to matter a lot. Methinks a good amount of detritus is not handled yet by CM7 that is needed, that other prior ROMs on individual devices may have "left fixed" for some lucky folks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wotdsm:
Getting "4G" to connect should be a lot easier now on CM7 for everyone as Verizon has their eHRPD network back up and running.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
I'm going to try test 4 again now that 4G LTE is working properly again. Isn't there a version of GApps newer then the 20110307 release tho?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emarusamun:
Yes, I believe its rom manager.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
20110307 is the latest on there. I swore there was a newer one out... maybe I imagined it. Just like that great brownie I had an hour ago lol.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
There was but its gone now. It had the new gtalk in it
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
Ah okay. I'm assuming if anything has been updated I'll be able to get it via Market?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
Yea your fine and the new gtalk is buggy anyway
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
Thank you very much. Nearly got the install finished.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psufan5:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
My locator just quit working yesterday, and I can't seem to get it back. It keeps my weather widgets from locating; and though I can navigate the Market, I can't download anything or update any apps. It was working a couple of days ago, then all of a sudden quit.

I have re-flashed the wifi-fix, fixed permissions in CWM, but problem persists.

Also, wifi doesn't work at all anymore.

On a positive note, my 3G works and is pretty reliable. Doesn't make sense that I have 3G but can't update apps in the Market. Oh well. I hope the new build comes out soon. :confused:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
Found out something interesting while trying to get 4G working... It appears that fix permissions screws up wifi. My Wifi was working perfectly until I fixed permissions, then it errored out immediately afterwards. Fixed it by reflashing Imoseyon's kernel.(my kernel of choice). Now my Wifi works again. Hope this info helps someone.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
Which kernel are you using?

On that note from the half hour so far I've had CM7 Test 4 on my TB I am very impressed with how smooth things are so far. I'm not having much luck getting 4G LTE to work but 3G is running pretty well as is. This is not quite daily driver use for me as of yet as I do use the 4G LTE speeds quite often for stuff such as YouTube videos and what not. But once 4G LTE is stable and working it certainly will become my daily driver.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jgrimberg1979:
LOL that isnt really the update most of us are looking for.

Anyways I dont know how but i finally got 4g working and it sticks reboot after reboot after reboot. Initially i couldnt get it to 4g at all and then i got it but i kept having to go to settings and change from cmda auto to lte. It wasnt until i deleted my market (dont ask me why) and i had to restore my system from my backup that 4g just popped up and since then its been working.

In case anyone is wondering... I am using the lastest leaked radio (which apparently is the same as todays update)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psufan5:
Anyone know of an in-call volume fix? I cant find it in the sea of posts....
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BryanP:
Wifi & video sound was bugging me so I tried stripped bamf stripped then vanilla bean 1.1 then 1.2

For me, this rom has less slowdowns and has more pop. I'll take a battery usage skewed high by cell idle / standby and keep a configured vanilla bean in CWM backup if needed.

Thank you slayher for anytime you can find to push this peanut forward.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] magicriggs:
Thank you.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Thanks man. Didn't realize there was an updated Gapps out there. I flashed it and now locator seems to be working, but I still can't download anything from the Market. Don't know what's up with that. :confused:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mcmillanje:
Steps taken-

on sense rom flash stock original radio and turn ehrpd on (I had it off). Also use GPS status to get full lock.

Full wipe / flash cm7 / wipe / imo's kernel / wipe / gapps.

Reboot.

Set it to cdma only... wait till green... set to cdma + lte/evdo

And bam, 4G, working GPS, everything smooth and perfect.

Not only that, my 4G speeds are 10-17 mbps, last time I tried cm7 they were 2-5 at best.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DS36:
That's how I did it too minus all that wiping.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xndzizz:
hate to bother, but can you provide a link to the stock radio? or point out to my noobie-self which one it is in this thread? (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045081)
