[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
Look for our newest release will have the 6bar and a custom gtp theme. The battery icon will stay the same because of how it ties into the whole "car theme" we are going for. You can change it at anytime using the uot kitchen. We just asked for the icons from the kitchen but the framework should be easy to change if you want. Just know that it's at your own risk and there wouldn't be much troubleshooting I can do.

Since HTC has not released the kernel source I can not tweak the kernel at this time and refuse to "hybrid and already hybrid" rom from HTC to get them to work. Wayy to many issues with stability. The new kernel is very snappy and I have some other tweaks and such for performance in this next build coming soon. The "soak test" from our beta testers will be beginning very soon.

Oh, don't be mistaken the towers can definitely tell your tethering. What everyone doesn't realize is a computer uses and makes a lot more simultaneous connections since it has so many different protocols running at once that connect to the Internet at different times. There is software in the towers that detects this. The blocks were put into place within the framework of the mr2 that does block the tether for the thunderbolt and I have refused to put it in due to verizon thinking of charging customers pay per usage when it comes to tethering. You have to understand I am not going to be held responsible for people getting charged insane amounts on their bill because they are tethering without a tether plan. Until I hear otherwise from my "source" I will not be putting it in by default. There is a patch as you said that tricks the firmware and "unblocks" the tether. If you want to use that unblocker use it at your own risk. With the next build release I'll have a flashable zip with a disclaimer but it will not go in the build by default.

I am ready to be "soaked"!!!!! :-P
[Thunderbolt Android Development] GermanGuy:
So WifiTether does not work on this ROM? I just tried connecting my Ipod using Wifi Tether 2.0.7 and it did not work. Otherwise this is a great ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CenFlo:
It doesn't work, at least it did not for me as of yesterday and I did reboot a couple of times.

It gets stuck at "Obtaining IP address" and I presume it's the radio not allowing the client an IP address or interfering with the binding process.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] VolDroid:
No it doesn't work. I think he answered that in post #321.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CenFlo:
It does now, just installed, tested and working using:

http://th3oryrom.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=21
[Thunderbolt Android Development] GermanGuy:
Does not work for me. Ipod still does not connect using Wifi Tether 3.1 beta. Correction: Wifi Tether 2.0.7 works. Perfect! Thanks

Battery Mod- UOT

Can someone tell me why I cannot get the battery mod to work in the kitchen?

I constantly get the orange error. "unfinished not correct mod"

I am uploading the framework-res.apk and have tried repeatedly using MTD & EMMC

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CenFlo:
I did notice that the phone that has this ROM on it (it's not my primary phone) was turned off when I checked it this morning.

Eaton ROM, LTE On/Off (3G is the norm), SetCPU and the Wifi tether update.

Anyone else experiencing this? Not a reboot, phone appears to have just shut down by itself.

Edit: MR 2.5 radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
Nope, nothing like that here, and I have been running this a while now.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
I'm ready to get soaked too. Just hope winter won't be here by the time we start testing. LOL
[Thunderbolt Android Development] soonster:
do a NANDROID back-up and try my complied Circle % battery (auto color in intervals). :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Thanks for the tip. Works perfectly with my xoom now.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Irieone:
Awesome, thanks for taking the time to post. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
No worries, real life has been killer but we've come across a few things I wanted to fix before fully pushing the beta. If you don't see an email in your box tonight check tomorrow. I'm off tonight/tomorrow and will have time to organize everything.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
Hope all is well, if not, that's why they invented alcohol :P

This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :P
[Thunderbolt Android Development] caseym:
I've installed a zip from uot kitchen for the battery percentage...now the volume rocker turns the screen on when it is off. Is there any way to disable this? I had a zip that I used on cm7 previously but it doesn't seem to work with this rom. Maybe nobody else cares about this but it drives me nuts!

Thanks in advance.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
If you have root explorer you can do it easily ... When I get to a PC I'll make this post worthwhile and tell you how lol

EDIT: Here you go: open root explorer and navigate to \system\usr\keylayout\ then open mecha-keypad.kl in the text editor. Then you'll see:

key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE

delete the "wake(s)", reboot and you're all set.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DoctorZaius68:
Looking forward to it!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] caseym:
Worked great...thanks man you rock!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
No problem, glad you're now able to enjoy this awesome ROM now :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
Just wanted to take some time and say thanks to all of you that have been running our ROM and let you know that we are still alive and kicking we are just working out some things in our latest build and there are some good things to come in the next builds of the Eaton ROM.

on another note there are some things that are going to be being added to this next build that people will like and we are revamping some things for later use
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mgene63:
Is there a fix for sms going to the wrong people floating around somewhere or is that still a froyo issue?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Man I just gotta say that I've tried just about every rom and decided to give yours a flash a few days ago. I thinking gonna stick with an mr2 froyo rom until an official GB rom gets leaked. I just find the gb roms to be buggy, and battery killers. The battery life with this rom is awesome. With the 4g on, I got about 10 hours of moderate use. With only 3g, my phone has gone 15 hours so far and I still have 44% battery left! All i've done was add a battery mod and a different theme. This rom was good to go right out of the box. I highly recommend this rom to anyone who's looking for a bug-free battery saving rom. Nice work!

Edit- I'm running a stock battery.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
Lmao. It's embarrassing too. It happened to me numerous times. I think its a froyo issue but I hope there is a fix for it
[Thunderbolt Android Development] caseym:
To clarify this, here's how I'm running...I only use 3G because there is no 4G anywhere near me right now. It appears that if I charge at night and with moderate usage during the day, I'll get a full day out of it (15-18 hours). I'm using the Seido OEM size extended battery, which has not performed any better than the stock battery on any other roms.

It seems to me though that if I charge during the day I get "more hours" because I'm not charging through the night...the phone is doing next to nothing for at least 6 hours. So I guess that's my take on how I've been able to get 24-28 hours on a single charge.

Regardless of all that, this ROM is awesome and I can actually use my TBolt all day without it dying on me so quickly. Thanks again to Team GTP and it is great to hear that you guys are working on the next build...can't wait to try it!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] mgene63:
Yeah I mean if "how much, and you leave after?" go to the wrong person :eek: ohh baby!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cstrife999:
I'm coming on over to this rom. I need a better battery life and don't want too much eye candy to drain it down.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gsubrandon:
Man the suspense is killing me! I can't wait for the new release...I know its going to be awesome!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] igotjshoe:
First this is by far the Rom I've used sorry bamf. But the only problem I'm having is getting wireless tethering to work I've tried about 5 version. So any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
just a heads up we are still working on the latest build some more looking in to a few things. the beta testers are finding as soon as we resolve them we will let you all know. on a good note the battery life is holding strong. we will keep you posted on here about any updates.

on another note we are currently wanting your screen shots. show us how much you love the ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
These froyo builds, ones with this same base, have a wireless tether blocker built in by Verizon so that you have to purchase the mobile hotspot app to use that feature. Don't know if anyone has found a work around for this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Try this for a wifi tethering fix. Worked for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Here's my screenshot. It's simple, but that's how I like it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
WOw I Feel left out I got an inviation to be a beta tester but didnt get any files or information except for the PM. :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wingdo:
I received the initial gmail telling me that testing would begin shortly and that I would need to fill out a NDA which would be posted on dropbox, and that is as far as it got with me.

It's a nice ROM but there seems to be a lot of disorganization going on.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
Yup that's what I got too
[Thunderbolt Android Development] igotjshoe:
thanks for the heads up
[Thunderbolt Android Development] igotjshoe:
thanks but where am i suppose to go on this site ??
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Damn, looks like he pulled the wifi tether fix from his site. I have it, just not sure how to get it to you guys.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] igotjshoe:
If u could email it to me that would be cool igotjshoe@gmail.com
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Email sent.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
to all those beta testers. Are your text messages going to the wrong person :eek:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Wingman520:
havn't had any issues on that for mine
[Thunderbolt Android Development] byfarrr:
had that issue with earlier versions, but never on 1.5.3 nor the beta. whenever it did happen to me though, it would happen when i would click on a message thread, but it would open up to another person and i wouldn't catch it before i typed and sent. never had it happen where i would write the text in the correct thread and it would send to someone else...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
I think that was the problem I had. It would open a different thread and send. Any ETA on the release :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
no its not disorganization we are working out a bug with the latest beta test build and it took longer than planed. we are in the middle of getting ready to get that put up
[Thunderbolt Android Development] byfarrr:
a quick thanks to the devs....i've been on this rom since i first rooted my thunderbolt, and these guys have been nothing but helpful with all of my questions, both in xda and in their irc channel. i was looking for a daily driver, and these guys have strongly focused on that while still adding a nice little flair here and there. battery life is unbelievable, to a point where i'd vouch for it over any other rom out there. there's a peace of mind in knowing that everything JUST WORKS and that the phone will always respond with performance.

yes, it's a smaller team of guys, but grand prix and yoda have put the time and attention to detail into their roms that's clearly visible in the quality of their work. keep up the great work!

i hope people can take the time to appreciate this rom and everything it has to offer, and to support the devs for their hard work in producing a great product. i'll be sending some more donations your way gentlemen.

Battery Mod

Hey all,

I know a big topic on this thread has been the battery icon not displaying percentage. While I too like the percent shown, I really like the battery icon included in this ROM. So, I decided to tweak it a bit and I thought I'd see if you guys like it. Now at this time, it is NOT ready ... but I will continue to work on it and make it available for you all if there is interest.

A screen shot is attached also here is a link for the same screen shot.

NOTE: For some reason it doesn't look very good in the screen shot pic, not sure why but I assure you it looks better on the phone.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MordyT:
That looks fine btw...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] EisBlade:
I too like the battery icon of this rom, but am glad to see change in adding percentage numbers. Nice tweak!!! Looking forward to its release...

JT
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
Thanks ... I hope to finish it up today (trying to get it done while at work :D ssshhhh, don't tell lol)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
Can you add stock transitions too with the current battery icon.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
Yanki I love how your phone looks. It appears black theme. Care to share :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
I can try .... Sent ya a PM so you can test it for me :)

Let me know if it works.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
does that mean it worked? Lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
yup. didnt u used to do some theme for OG?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
Cool, glad it worked for ya.

Yeah, I had a couple of themes for the D1 (Renovated & Incinerated)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
If you download the latest wireless tether from google code site and after installing the app, go to the settings and make sure to pick your device as the "HTC Thunderbolt" (obviously) and pick the setting about half way down in the settings menu for HTC devices. It should work.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Kc0r8y:
Dude this mr2 radio seems a TON faster on your rom then on flyweight rom..kickass!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
Just wait until you see batterylife ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Kc0r8y:
I got the extended battery because I turn EVERYTHING on.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Carnage9270:
I've been testing this for a day now and I must say I am very impressed. Very fluid rom. I honestly can't find anything wrong with this rom, believe me, I've tried :)

I will be following this one very closely, However I notice in your signature you have an Incredible. Any plans for developing for it? My wifey and kid are still on the incredible.

Big thanks for your time on this. Now where the hell is that donate button...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
You'll be happy to know we are working on an incredible build, it's in the alpha stage at the moment and will be a little while before it is fully done. We'll keep you updated when the time comes for beta testers and when the full release is out.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
@yoda1

Edit your fingerprint in the build prop to match the MR1 update, to allow the market to see forward locked apps. Some asshat app developers are still using the depreciated forwardlock copy protection

Use

[ro.build.fingerprint]: [verizon_wwe/htc_mecha/mecha/mecha:2.2.1/FRG83D/338893:user/release-keys]
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
Alright, update will be out tonight, thank you :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Carnage9270:
Please do. I have access to a few Incredible's at work as well. I can give em some stress testing at corporate level. I'll PM ya with contact info.

I know it's probably not in your immediate plans, but any future plans for themes on either of these?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
I definitely will, we have a beta section set up on our forum that only our beta testers can see where we post updates and allow them to post their findings and comments. I will keep you in mind and send you the info when we feel it's ready for a beta push.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BUMP THAT:
how can i get rid of the vzw wireless location icon from the status bar?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
yes we are working on a incredible rom as well. thank you for your im put. we will be working on some framework mods tonight and after thay are tested we will be posting an update.:D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
we will be removing it in the next build of the ROM just hang tight this is new framework.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BUMP THAT:
Ok that is good news! What about the power control widgets in the pulldown? I just noticed t hey were gone.

And I have to say this is a very nice rom. snappy!

Not to rush, what is the time till release of the next build? :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
I have alot of trouble with market on this rom. i get alot of downloads that say "downloading" and end up stuck on "downloading paused"

if i clear data on download manager and on the market it goes away, but it seems to come back.

also like jcase said, protected apps aren't showing up in market.

besides that, smooth rom
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
we are changing that in the build tongiht and will have an update tonight

should be here soon for the frame work mods i will be looking in to the fixes here soon and all have to wait for my lil one to get picked up to so im not uninterrupted when making the changes

And thank you for all the input to help us make this ROM better
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
Thank you for the update, the protected apps in the market is an easy fix and will be out tonight no matter what.

As for your market downloading issue, do me a favor. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications. Hit the tab at the top that says "All" and then scroll down until you see Market. Clear data from and force close the market. Immediately after you do that restart your phone and try the market again and let me know if that fixes it. Other people on all different phones and builds have been having market issues recently but I will look into it and make sure if it is our build that it gets fixed tonight.

Are you on wifi while trying to download the applications of on the mobile network?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yoda1:
Found some thing fun that I'm adding to this next build

TeamGTP Development co-founder

Current Daily Driver - HTC Thunderolt / Xoom WiFi
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
I noticed if I go on WIFI the app will download, if im on 4g that particular app will get stuck.

also, i just got most of my apps up will a full wipe be required with tonights update?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
You won't have to wipe with tonight's update. Tonight's update is just some minor build prop changes to fix the market issues. A bigger, more in depth change will be out soon. We are polishing everything off still.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mrksbrd:
Still having issues with the market on 1.5.1, doesn't appear to be getting everything
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djsiva:
This didn't work for me. I rarely need tether, but really needed it the other day and couldn't get it working. Anyone have any idea why this wouldn't work on the TB? Or suggestions for any other wireless tether programs??

Nate
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djsiva:
Just tried a couple of other versions and receive the same issues with wireless tether. This is a deal breaker. :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MordyT:
Freeze tethering guard with titanium backup.

Via my HTC Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
The stock mail app is draining my battery. I have it set to push. Is that normal to drain battery.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djsiva:
I just installed TB, where do you freeze tethering guard? I've never used this before.

Nate
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djsiva:
Nevermind, I found where to do that at, but it didn't work. I froze it, restarted phone and I'm still having the same issue.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MordyT:
On WiFi tether version 2.0.7?

Via my HTC Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
What does it tell you? Does it even let you start app?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
You sure issue isn't on your laptop or PCs side, maybe delete connection and let it reset up. That original message I sent was from my laptop with that setup I explained. And just checked and my phone even still has the tether guard apk in the system folder
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CenFlo:
I have the Wifi tether fix as well as Wifi 2.07 zipped and uploaded.

Anyone that needs it, shoot me a PM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djsiva:
Yeah, wifi tether has always worked on this laptop from all of my phones. I only realized the issue with the TB after VZW nixed the freebie tether.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
Sorry couldn't help, good luck figuring it out. Might reflash Rom and try WiFi tether without installing or setting anything up. But I read only new ones would work
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CenFlo:
If youve alredy installed wifi tether, remove, flash fix in recovery then install wifi tether.

That is how I was able to get it working.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djsiva:
Holy shiz... I don't know what's in the zip, but you're the man. It works!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MordyT:
share the zip here please?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CenFlo:
It's not my work or fix, therefore I don't really feel it's right to openly post it for download.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
It'll be in the next build, disclaimer will be up for using at your own risk but knowing you guys you'll take that risk :P

Work on the newest build is coming a long very nicely. Beta testers haven't had issues on the beta builds and as soon as I work out a few final kinks in the power control widget coding the power control widgets will be in the notification pulldown ;)

I just wanted to chime in and thank everyone for being patient. We've been working on things a lot including a toolbox and custom themes. Initially we're gonna launch after the beta test with the power control widgets goes well and then adding the toolbox and themes shortly after :)

For those wondering about gingerbread, unfortunately without having an ruu that is more stable than whats out we'll continue to work with mr2. With enough persuasion I might release a GB Alpha with the sense 3.0 modules for you guys but not until we get eaton updated.

Any questions?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] YankInDaSouth:
I have one ... what kind of persuasion do you speak of? Like, "Pretty, pretty please!"? :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
I have a question since you brough it up. When will it release :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
One request. can you have a zip for stock animations as an add on pretty please, :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n8theshredder:
Can't you just disable windows animations under settings/display?... That's what I did.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] solarpolitiks:
Take a stock ROM and pull the animations folder out of framework res apk and throw it in the same apk of eaton ROM before flashing
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
Will give that a try
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
Or we could just put it in the toolbox like we're planning...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trikotret:
I love you man........ :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grand Prix:
Aim to please ;)
