other than a few temporary FC on some random apps and the Google Voice issue (was solved, see above post), I have absolutely no problems with data, 4G, GPS lock, or phone services. The battery life is amazing as in other AOSP roms. (maybe even better?) I am using the latest radio from this thread though

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1048128

So I suggest using the very last available CDMA+LTE combo in that original post. The instruction is in the original post but here is the short version if you've never done the radio upgrade: The Thunderbolt has two radio files, one for CDMA and one for LTE. You need both.

1- Download both LTE and CDMA files

2- you need to do this upgrade one file at a time, doesn't matter which one first

3- rename the first file PG05IMG.zip and place it in the root of you SD card (not in any folder)

4- Turn your phone off ( I usually pull the battery), hold the volume-down button and press and hold power until you see the white hboot screen. The hboot should do a few things and recognize the new radio. It will ask you to say yes to the upgrade. It will take a few minutes and you are done.

5- remove the first file or move it into a folder on your sd card, now do the same with the second file. Once done, reboot normally. Don't forget to remove/move the second file from the root of your SD card so you can do other things in hboot (going to CWR menus) without the hboot wanting to upgrade.

I was having problems with GPS on another AOSP rom, flashed BAMF's Sense 3.0 rom, locked on to GPS, the reflashed the rom for immediate fix and lock to GPS.

what is the recommended way to upgrade to new #4 release from #3? Is Wiping Cache and dalvik enough?

I was thinking the same thing, but I want to know the

Change log from 4

I was going to Recovery mode : format/system then flash.

But making sure my wifi and GPS are enabled first.

I actually just compared my current radio versions w/that of the(Radio link) and they're very much identical aside from the "w_1"( Cdma radio) and "w_2" (Lte) that is listed after the radio descriptions. I dont think that should matter cause thats how the dev wrote up the "Combo " radio file to show up on phone. I loaded up the newest MIUI and i had absolutely no data. Toggled mobile networks, airplane mode and still nothing. Reverted back to 2nd latest and all is good ..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
I've heard that different phones of same model act differently on different radios. Never understood it though.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] himmelhauk:
I always format /system, /cache and dalvik 3 times to be sure.

Hi all,

"Google Maps Navigation is not yet available for your location" I get that, and it never locks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] WhiteReign:
Just a stupid question, Do i have to do a full wipe on the last nights update or just install over the other one?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mperson007:
Flash new ROM over previous ROM (wipe cache/dalvik first). Data works after doing this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
someone said system, cache, and dalvik wipes should be enough. Keeping data intact will keep all your apps and settings.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] ka911:
First off all Thanks you very much for all you hard work and making this ROM available for us. I want to ask if the data need some work around to make it work? everything I need working in this ROM except the DATA! Please if you can post on your first post the steps on how-to make the Data work I will be thankful..

I cannot create calendar events. It tells me that a google/exchange account Is required to view or edit an event while I have a google account configured to this phone. Then I create event and it gets stuck at loading calendars and that's it. I'm able to press the home button to exit but my event doesn't get created. I return to the calendar app and it still loading calendars.

To get things working if the last pair of radios from the radio thread (mentioned in a few posts above) does not work for you, I would try the sets right above it. I would start from the very bottom and try them until I'd find one that would fix your problem.

If I flash a sense ROM to get a GPS lock, can I restore miui via nandroid?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 2k10MBC300SPT:
I think you're better off w/a fresh miui install instead of nandroid
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ryanmo5:
Yes you can, just did so a few days ago and worked just fine.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] usafle:
Ok all, time to pick your brains. Tried flashing this on my buddies TBolt but no go. Just never gets past the "Rooted" boot page. Coming from another ROM. These are the steps I did.

1) Made back up in CWM of original ROM

2) Downloaded new Radio (no idea which one since there are SO MANY - if anyone has a link to the newest radio, that would be welcome) and applied it

3) Ran that wipe.zip file

4) Flashed the MIUI ROM

5) Rebooted (and now never gets past the first screen)

I did this a few times but still same result. Tried to re-flash his working ROM and now get nothing but android.acore force closures. His old ROM that worked 10 minutes ago, now is crashing like crazy (Radio perhaps?)

I've tried everything which way but lose but cant get his phone to boot into either the MIUI ROM or his original ROM. I am at a loss.... no idea where to go from here but he is going to kill me I suspect shortly. :(

(I, for whatever reason had no issues flashing this and it runs wonderfully hence why I wanted to upgrade him to this)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
did you see my post a couple of pages back?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19285280&postcount=801

I usually flash the rom first and then radio. Also, why use a script to wipe things when you can do it manually yourself? Wipe Data/Cache/System/Dalvik and you should be good to go. Also, start from the bottom pair of LTE+CDMA in the radio thread and then if it doesn't work go to the next one above it until a pair works. Here is the radio thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1048128

1-what ever rom you are in, flash the radios one at a time (follow my post), there are two files needed for the radio. You have to do both the CDMA and LTE

2- go back to CWR and wipe everything manually (system is under mounts, Dalvik is under advanced)

3- flash a fresh copy of MIUI

4- boot and enjoy

Now if it doesn't work, try another pair of radios from the bottom up.

If the GPS won't lock and everything else works, nandroid backup, flash a sense rom, lock GPS, then restore your backup and you should have working GPS.

I have to tell you guys, I have installed MIUI on the original Droid, Incredible, Inc2, DroidX, Barnes and Noble Nook, and EVO 4G . This was by far the best first install experience out of all of them. I don't understand all these problems. I have not upgraded to update 4 yet though. Could that be the problem?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Has anyone figured out why the update is doing this? I had to go back to Liquid and then reflash the 11 4 just to get IT to work after trying to update. It's not my radio. It's not all Aosp. It's really something in that update that sends everything haywire. Ie NO data. ? Instead of getting everyone to flash it while trying all sorts of tricks, shouldn't maybe someone be looking at the update that is causing the prob? Just my 2cents

Edit: this is really a great rom. All of your work is really appreciated. I just think that when half of the ppl updating have the exact same issue, it's not the radio or some voodoo trick we missed. Should we go for help? Hahaha
[Thunderbolt Android Development] buttstink:
force closing issues

as much as i love everything about this ROM, despite the few kinks that need to be worked out, i'm having a big problem with force closes after a day or two running. i'm getting messages like "the process com. android phone has stopped unexpectedly" or "the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". i don't have any reception and the notification says "no service" so i'm wondering if it is my radio?

by baseband version is 1.39.00.0627r, 0.01.69.0625r thanks for any help, i hope i can get this fixed :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
you are using a Froyo radio. I bet most people having problems have the same issue. You need tro use a Gingerbread radio.

Try this pair, I have a post a few posts above explaining how.

CDMA: 1.48.00.0906

LTE: 0.01.78.0906
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Ugh. I'm using the 906 radio. Maybe ask for a log cat or whatever you guys Do? It's not user error nor are we unfamiliar with our lte phones. No offense, but it's not us. It's the build. I had lye signal, yet wasn't connected to a mobile network. Nothing would get data to work. And then it was a nightmare getting back to the previous build. And it was force close city on 11 11 Just... bad. On the bright side, 1104 is nice now that I'm finally back.

Where's Eris? :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
I had to do it a few times. But absolutely no go on the update. It wouldn't take after flashing over forever nor liquid nor cm7. But this worked to get the previous version working again. Thx, totally wish I had seen this before my flash / foreclose fest.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Edit: Just saw that you updated :) thx!

I've had no FCs on the 11.11 build, though I'm a bit skeptical on updating to 11.12 given the issues some are having.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] himmelhauk:
Wipe /cache, /system and dalvik cache to be sure. I usually wipe those 2 or 3 times to ensure a proper wipe.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] himmelhauk:
For the tethering part, I use an app called OpenGarden Wifi Tether from the Market. It looks exactly the same as the usual wifi tether albeit with a lolly lolly fru fru background, and it works for me every time.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
It's totally good. The issues were right away on 11 for me and not mistakable. 12 is all good and even hooked in to restore your apps etc through Google.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] usafle:
I didn't have any issues flashing this on my phone. GPS and everything works fine. Just my buddies phone is having the issue. I have no idea WHY.

I used the wipe.zip because it was just easier then manually doing it (and I used it on my phone without any issues)

I guess I should mention that I am doing this flash via telephone and walking him through it step-by-step. I don't have physical access to the phone. So 3 hours on the phone last night and we just followed your directions this morning (thank you) and attempting to do it again.

I never updated TWO radio images on my phone. First I've ever seen of that. I don't think I will do that, because my phone works, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

I've wiped everything multiple times on his phone and even did a factory data reset. Phone still will not boot.

I don't know what else to try? I can't even get his old ROM working from a nandroid backup. Nothing but F-C when it starts up and it's impossible to clear them out to try and fix it within the OS by clearing out the Contact DB, ETC...

Even if the RADIOS were "Bad" the phone would still boot into the OS, yes? We just wouldn't have cell service... I would think?

Yeah but everything else is good. Vicious took down the update that went whacky on a bunch of us. Pretty much just mms isn't working.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Do NOT do that (the radio roulette) . OK... just wipe and flash the update. I promise it'll work. Make sure to update superuser and the binaries just to be safe once you get the latest release running. Wipe everything though. Google will restore his apps this time thru the market. You don't need to boot it by the way, just go into recovery and wipe the data and caches... download the update on your computer and attach his phone w USB and move the update over if necessary. I had the same crazy force close thing w 11.11 and no data too
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dawiseguy77:
I've been using miui for years. On mult1ple devices, and I can tell all of you that once you have it installed you really never have to wipe anything. I never have when each update comes out, and I have never had an issue with anything. I've always had everything work perfectly. Just waiting for Mms fix. This is the best rom on any phone by 10000 miles.

Anyone have the apk for CBS fantasy football? I can't get access to it from the market when on an aosp Rom. It's protected so app monster won't back it up.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
yes you should be able to boot into the phone if radios are bad, just no service or data. Can you brick the phone using a bad radio? I'm sure it's possible but I think that usually happens when radio from the wrong phone is flashed. I have to think it's the long distance thing and he is doing something he is not supposed to.

I would start from the beginning. Download a sense rom (I suggest one of BAMF's or Infected ones), then wipe manually and install the rom, then get the latest radios and flash them. Get the phone working again and then go to MIUI. As always be prepared to move to another radio-pair if it does not work. Also, I do very little in ROM manager. Usually do it all in CWR.

There are threads that combine the two radios and you flash them as one. I usually do the 2 separate ones from that thread I mentioned. I like to see what I'm doing step by step so I can learn and fix things if something goes wrong. So I usually stay away from wipe scripts, one clicks, and combined radios.

Also, if you update the LTE or CDMA only, they may work with the existing one you did not update. The radios can be mixed and matched hence the fact that yours worked. Just make sure you use Gingerbread radios if you are on a GB rom.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Yes it was removed because as we have been saying DATA WAS JACKED. No one's radio is bad dude... the update (as you will see in viscious's comments) had a whacky data problem. It's fine now.

Was using 1.11.4 w/o any issues. Extremely smooth, updated to 1.11.12 after wipe, was able to get signal. After restoring apps, I attempted to listen to music, my phone started to fc & restart on its own, with No Signal. I've wiped again, flashed a different ROM, flashed 1.11.4 and still can't get a signal. Any ideas to fix this issue?

Great Job with the ROM, just want to get it working again.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Well, you shouldn't. But that wasn't the problem. Telling ppl to go down the list of radios and flash until they have data woulda been irresponsible if you were a dev (I assumed, wrongly, that you were) when there were a ton of us who suddenly had no data after updating. I'm not sure why radios even came into play here... unless you had flashed the update then found a fix, then it's kinda touchy when a bunch of us had big issues w the update. It'd be best to say 'my guess' like you did with the whole guessing the forceclosures were due to... wait for it... radios... than to send ppl off on wild chases when you're not actually a dev w miui? We all help each other out but if you don't know... clarify that. Some ppl are really new to all of this. Sorry for the diatribe.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
I see no reason if 1.11.4 (is that stable release 3?) was working, reflashing a nandroid or fresh copy of it stop working. I would go back and wipe data/cache/system/dalvik 3 times manually and try again. You may have some remnants causing issues.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
Did you update superuser and binaries? (That's all that I can think that I did differently) this is so strange. Flashing a different rom then miui did work to bring data back for me on 11.04 ... like cm7. Didn't even sign in. Just got signal then went to recovery and flashed 11.04.

I sent no one on a wild chase. The dude in post 833 is using a Froyo radio on a GB rom, so I told him how to update. I never said your problems were caused by radio, someone asked how to update radio, so I obliged. In all posts I made sure I had mentioned that I am on Release 3 and have not tried release 4 and you were to deduct from that the fact that release 4 was the issue. The radio updating was brought up to help with updating radio, that's all. You don't have to get testy. It's just a stupid phone and I'm trying to help.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] z03wpd:
Thank you for the feedback loveubuntu & mariekesuzanne. I'll try again using both suggestions.

Oh ya, I love trying different radios for fun :mad::p
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mariekesuzanne:
I get that... I'm a chick, we are testy abt our phones. There were like 4 or 5 different ppl you told to flash radios :) I was mostly annoyed cause I thought you were a Dev on the project... (my bad) so used to bamf and having the devs around when sh#t goes haywire...

Now in my 'chill' voice... the whole radio thing won't help w this. But I'm pretty sure that the 906 radios are everyone's safest bet.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
What version are you in? My stable ver3 has great battery. Also, you can charge the battery to 100%, then keep plugged in, boot into cwr and wipe battery stat under advanced menu, reboot and let run to empty. There is an app in the market called batterycalibration by marosige that will do it for you easily. It has instructions. I do this after any new rom installation.

I also use screebl which is a paid app. It helps a lot.
