Correct, I keep GPS on.

What I notice is that upon reboot, the GPS icon immediately comes up for a bit, then goes away and then the error regarding location detection hits.

But yes, during normal usage, no more issues at all.

Btw- I just want to tell you again how insanely awesome this ROM is. I was on Bamf Forever for MONTHS and no other ROM was as smooth/stable/performance/battery life. And your ROM is now superior. So thanks so much for your work.

Hi, I have a search problem, music, tiny torrent, and a few others don't work...I really can't search anything.it keeps force closing.what do I do? Ty
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TemporalShadows:
The radio is low-level and wouldn't have any control over which time-zone the ROM thinks it's in.

Generally the mobile network provides the time and time-zone to the phone and the ROM sets it accordingly (as long as it's enabled in the ROM). As ThunderStick said, it's a bug in the leaked ROM.

Disabling "Use network-provided values" and setting the time zone manually stops the prompts. Unless you travel between time-zones often, you won't know the difference.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] KidJoe:
Did anyone those steps on this Rom yet? Does Verizon's visual Voice mail work that way?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lonewolf1972:
Hi, I can't use any search features on any app..all force closes.what do I do? I really love this rom
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
I'd consider a wipe/reinstall, cause i surely dont have this problem and it just sounds like something got screwy.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wildman:
I was hoping someone would start cleaning things up and getting thing going on this rom because it ran so smooth but was so limited...

Thanks because I was looking for something new to try... Hope the Lean 6.1 kernel resolves speeds like I heard... Downloading Now to test..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] whojabacod:
Fyi u can only log on while on cdma only then u can switch back to LTE
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
I dont have any speed issues whatsoever and using latest leanKernel.

Agree that this is the smoothest sense 3.0 rom out there and I am looking to Thundersticks continuing great work
[Thunderbolt Android Development] zx12dak:
I just tried this ROM and it was awesome but the 4g speeds were terrible just like the original MR4. I tried a 5.1 lean kernel but the phone black screened. I have never flashed a kernel before and I did it from recovery. Idk. I went back to the Shift Rom but I really wanna use this! Where can I download the 6.1 lean kernel and what did I do wrong?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tazman19:
You need the 6.1 kernel on mr4 roms to fix 4G speed.

Is there a way to get the regular app tray with 4 icons instead of 5? I dont really like to 5 because it seems to cramped together..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
My Bad.... Thanks for the MOD
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SirBindy:
You flashed a kernel that specifically says it's NOT for MR4 based roms. 6.1.0 is in the same exact thread as 5.1.0 that you flashed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] droid future:
You flashed the wrong kernel. You need the 6.1 lean kernel then you have to use speed tweak to change to option 1. Also make sure you ate checking your speeds on your browser using Comcast xfinity speed test because the other speed test apps don't work for this Rom. Hope this helps. PM me if you have any questions about my explanation.

EDIT: I didn't notice that so many other people had answered the question multiple times oooops!

Thanks guys! I will read closer next time! lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
Big update...

Got a good update uploading now....

-Working verizon apps (thanks to the.cyber.trekker)

-Tons of quick settings added to the pull down:D

(4G Radio toggle, Airplane Mode, 8n1 Volume, Brightness, Wireless ADB)

*(More to come on these as I get more time):rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
Awesome update!!!

I assume full wipe not required, can probably get away with just cache/dalvik
[Thunderbolt Android Development] zx12dak:
Thanks guys! Reloaded the ROM with the 6.1 kernel! So far so good!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
No need to wipe anything, the updater.script takes care of it all.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] whojabacod:
So just fyi the mms apk. In the new build is back to 300k max mms size
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
My Verizon works great. Still have to do the silly CDMA mode to login first time, but after that seems to be fine.

I did notice MMS is back to down to 500k??? Was there an issue with the larger max send?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] makeshiftharmony:
I get unable to sign at this time message for Verizon. I'm on cmda what could I be doing wrong other then being stupid.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] makeshiftharmony:
It actually says service temporally unavailable.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
You have to set the radio to CDMA ONLY.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] makeshiftharmony:
Thanks, I was using cmda(pri)

Changing to cmda did it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] makeshiftharmony:
How does this Rom compare to ikreams 3.0. Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
Only MR4 rom with all the quick settings enabled and a few extras added. Not sure if ikreams has the extended power menu either.

Much cooler name also... :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
If your battery usage get's worse after this release. Uninstall my verizon. the app sucks battery juice like know ones business.;)

Im pulling it from the next release for sure.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] donnyp1:
This version did not seem as smooth as the first for me. Could that have caused lag also? I hadnt had any till v apps worked.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
I was about to post this!

I noticed today my batt life hasnt been as good as the previous version. Had NO clue what was causing it, and I cant believe its the MyVerizon app. doesnt make much sense, but yea, get rid of it. make it an addon for anyone who wants to keep it or something.

also, any reason you're not using imo's leankernel by default? its so superior to all the other options out there.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mjt1111:
Just installed this ROM with imo's leankernel and it smooth. Initially was getting slow data speeds did reboot and now getting 30mbps here in denver. Nice job on this rom.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] usicus:
Lucky mother beepers out there with these speeds! I'm lucky if I break 7 in Fresno! I guess, more like fresNO!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
Well the fact that Fresno even has 4G is a miracle lol.

My understanding based on something I read a number of months ago is that they were still expanding the coverage in Fresno, Clovis, etc.

but still, 7MB is nothing to sneeze at, and the people reporting 30MB probably not getting that on a consistent basis. I get around 12mb up/down on a regular basis in LA.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tarigand:
Can anyone tell me if Yahoo mail is still tripping out on the Stock mail app? Meaning are some messages not showing up?

Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mjt1111:
Speeds are up and down pretty inconsistent but for yesterday hit 30 the majority of the time.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] elwood1229:
Thinking about checking out this rom. I have read all of the posts in this thread but still have a few questions.

1) I am concerned about the time issue. I understand that after reboot I can select my timezone. Does this mean that the Verizon network is not automatically selecting it at all? Or does the network start detecting it after that (until the next reboot)? The reason for my concern is that I literally live within a couple of miles of the eastern/central timezone line and I am wondering if there will be any complications as a result of my close proximity to another time zone.

2) Is the installation of the LeanKernal required?

3) I am coming from XDABolt and have a full back up of it. If later on I decide to go back to XDABolt using that back up, will I need to reflash a kernal or will the kernal I am currently using with XDABolt be automatically restored? I have flashed several roms but never a kernal, so I am not sure exactly of the ins and outs of this part.

Thank you for your assistance!

Elwood
[Thunderbolt Android Development] teddyastuffed:
1) i dunno -_- wat happens is on reboot ur prompted to select what time zone you reside in, whether it automatically picks up changes is another story (im fully pacific time zone, wouldnt know if it changes)

2) No, but i do! i use 6.10 w/ st option 1 and interactiveX gov.

3) kernal is included in ur xdabolt backup, when u fully wipe and flash, u will be flashing the kernal included with this rom. if u decide to restore ur xdabolt, it will put the old kernal that you had on xdabolt back as well. hope that made sense -_-

Radio

What is the best radio to use for this rom. I hear MR4 Radio wasn't the best for MR4 ROM as it wasn't fully optimized for US. has that been resolved? should we use latest MR3 or MR4 Radio?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jodell22:
What are the chances of getting hulu working on this?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
To answer some of the questions above-

1) I think the MR4 radio is the best radio. I have not had any connectivity issues whatsoever, and I consistently get 12mb/12mb up and down all over Los Angeles. But as always, YMMV and you should try different radios out.

2) The time issue is a minor nuisance. It happens after every reboot, but just set it to your timezone and it wont come up again until another reboot. I only have to reboot on this ROM once ever 4-5 days, if that, so I dont consider it an issue. You can also just uncheck the autotime zone thing and it probably wont even come up at all.

3) leanKernel not required but highly recommended. I wish TS would make it the default Kernel as the battery and performance using leanKernel is utterly phenomenal and far superior to stock HTC.

Obviously I've become a converted fanboy of this ROM. But thats because its the first Sense ROM that, in my mind, is better than Bamf Forever which I had been using for MONTHS. And many newer ROM's came out since the final release of Bamf, but I'd always go back... until now. Thunderstick may not have quite as many niftty little customizations, but for people looking for a ROM with superior performance and outstanding battery life with Sense 3.0, this is it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] makeshiftharmony:
^^ Agreed!!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mi7chy:
Nice improvement on the wonderful openmobile leak. I appreciate the fact that the stock kernel was kept. I was using openmobile previously and after adding leankernel 6.0.0 had random battery depletion issues. So, it's nice to be able to reflash the ROM with stock kernel.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] that_kid:
Is anyone using Fring with this rom and if so are you able to make video calls over 3G and 4G? Not sure why but with this rom Fring says I do'nt have enough bandwidth for a video call. Speed tests are good (around 7Mb on average) and Fring works fine over wifi. If I install other roms Fring works fine over 3G/4G. I've updated to the MR4 radio and the lean kernel (which helped 4G speeds) but still no go for video calls.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] usicus:
Something strange and just checking if any one has experienced this..several times I have put my phone in my pocket only to hear music start playing automagically..anyone experience this..it has only happened using this ROM, which is great btw and thanks for the work!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
Anyone know how i could go about changing the mms size. Is this found in the build.prop?

Yet another awesome looking update, downloading now!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] donnyp1:
installed, everything is smooth, total wipe before installation, but I can not download or update a single app from the market, and the market hasnt updated yet.just an fyi

---------- Post added at 09:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 AM ----------

on the 5th time, it is starting to worknow
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
Strange, sometimes I noticed CWM may not wipe everything completely. Also give it time at first boot and after signing in to the market for everything to update. It does take about 10 minutes for the market to finish updating.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
when I try to use visual voice mail it gives me an error and says media type not supported, anyone have any suggestions?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderStick:
Your actually the first to try this, it may or may not work...

Did VVM work in previous releases? I dont have VVM from VZW so IDK ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
I didnt have this issue, but as Thunder said in his post, I always wait about 2-3 minutes after first boot just to let the phone settle. Even though everything seems like its finished and you're at the home screen, usually a ton of stuff still going on in the background after first boot.

As usual, everything seems to be working perfect with this latest version. I'm debating re-installing MyVerizon and doing actual battery usage tests to see if thats the real culprit for battery drain.

I like the new "ThunderStick approved" icon in the app drawer, looks freakin awesome.

Going to test out the new MMS limits and other goodies, will report back later today!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
I just started using it, so I don't know LoL. No biggie though, this Rom is just what I've been looking for. Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] donnyp1:
Here is how i wipe. All data/cache, dalvik, storage- format data, cache system, run superwipe, then install rom. It sat for probably 30 minutes as i was busy, before i even touched it. Now its working just fine, but market is still the old market, hasnt updated yet, and i believe that is what was the culprit. Great rom though, no other issues at all to report. Ive used mms alot, upload to facebook several pics, tried using the xda app which is just terrible after this weeks update, surfed the web alot, hours worth of music, and ive only used about 30% batt in 6 hours.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I installed a custom ROM for my HTC Thunderbolt. I'm trying to look for the instructions but couldn't find it. I have this ROM installed but have no signal. I forgot about this and think the problem is just the missing Radio ROM. It looks like I need the MECHA one listed here but I don't know which one exactly.

Can someone point me to the right directly and how to install the radio? I remember using some RUU program to do this for my HTC HD2 phone but not sure if it's the same version or same method for the Thunderbolt.

Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
For this particular rom, the best radio, in my opinion, is the MR4 radio (there are two, one for CDMA and one for LTE). A few other radio's also work, but thats my opinion.

You need to download them, rename them and put them (one at a time) into the root dir of you SD card and reboot into recovery. There are detailed instructions just search for them in this forum.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
Make sure the radio files are both renamed PG05IMG.zip and on the root of your SD card. When you hold down power and volume down to boot into recovery it should find them and ask you if you want to update them.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Thanks for the quick reply rajuabju.

So install both radios? Rename them to PG05IMG? I see two that begin with "	RUU_Mecha_MR4_S3_0_OpenMobile_US..." and want to confirm if those are the ones to use. Does it matter which one I install first since I'm not sure which one is for CDMA or LTE?

I think I remember how to do this now that you mentioned renaming it. I will start the downloads now but want to make sure I'm doing it correctly.

Thanks again.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rajuabju:
Those are the two radio's I was referring to. They are the ones *I* use with this ROM. Other radio's work as well, and some people dont like the MR radio's, but for me, living in Los Angeles, they have worked fantastic.

Doesnt make any difference which (CDMA or LTE) you install first. And yes, once downloaded, each needs to be renamed PG05IMG and flashed seperately.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
The last (and only) radio I used on this Thunderbolt phone was MR2. I rather stay with it if it works (doesn't in this case) since I had great speeds (over 40Mbps+). Let's see how this goes. Going to take a while downloading these two files.

Also thanks for the link josh0426. I was going to do it the manual way but using ADB will work as well.

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 PM ----------

Hi, I was able to download the 2nd one (release 237000). It's actually an EXE file and has RUU on it so I just ran it directly. I connected my phone and everything seems to be going well (see the progress bar) until around 5 minutes when it gave me an error at the end.

It says ERROR[131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR

The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.

Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.

The version it's using is 1.0.3.2011. Is there a .zip file that I can download instead? I will do it manually (either via ADB or just putting it on the SD card and manually going into hboot).

Still downloading the other file now. Not sure if I should try that also (EXE file as well) to see if that one works.

Thanks.

UPDATE:

After I clicked on Exit, it brought me to the bootloader again. I don't know what happened, but S-ON is enabled now. It was fine before. These are my settings before:

MECHA XD ENG S-OFF

Did you lose root?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Yep, it looks like I did. I'm stuck at the boot loader screen now even after a reboot. It seems like it's restored back to factory settings now. I wanted to try rooting it again, but it won't even boot up into Android OS.

I get a security warning in hboot:

*** LOCKED ***

Any help will be greatly appreciated?

Thanks.

UPDATE:

On that same page with all the MECHA radios, can I use one of the first two radio files? They are in zip format so it should load once it boots up right?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
Hmmm, boy I dont know,all I can do is give suggestions. I myself would load up a stock RUU, Try to root again then flash your rom again, then your radios. I dont know what .exe you ran but I would not trust any .exe files. Ill try to look into this some more.

---------- Post added at 08:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

Here is the full stock RUU, rename this and put on root of SD Card.http://bit.ly/m8OHRm

Root again with revolutionary or whatever.

flash your rom.

Install your radios in HBoot.

Here is the MR4 CDMA Radio.http://www.mycompute...G05IMG_CDMA.zip

Here is the LTE Radio.http://www.mycompute...PG05IMG_LTE.zip

I would also suggest when your all set back up to flash this kernel.http://rootzwiki.com...ernel-600-2512/

This page right here is a huge timesaver.http://rootzwiki.com/topic/18635-mr...mesmr4-radio-list/page__p__487004#entry487004
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Thanks for keeping this up with me. I'm going crazy. I actually did try that full stock RUU just now. I tried both 1.12.605.6 and 1.12.605.9 and both say update failed...main version is older.

I'm a little lost on these radio flashes. So can I just use the CDMA and LTE radio or I still need that "full stock RUU" first? I know that is usually a huge file (about 400MB) compared to the others.

Unfortunately, I can't root again because I'm stuck in hboot. The only time I did this was last year when I got my phone. I used some batch file to automate the process. That won't work in this case either (same for revolutionary) since the phone won't startup normally.

Should I just try the CDMA and LTE radios anyway? I still get the Security Warning and S-ON. Any harm by proceeding?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
You can try it, I dont think it will hurt anything. Let me know.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
No luck so far. It seems to have accepted the CDMA one but back to the bootloader after that. Removing the SD card and powering the phone back up brings me to the boot loader screen again.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
Your gonna have to get a stock Ruu on there. How are you trying to load it?

---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------

GK17, we should probably take this to PM or Gtalk so we dont fill up Thundersticks thread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
I'm just download those zip files and renaming them to PG05IMG.zip. Then booting up the phone again and let the boot loader do its job. Once it's done, I remove the SD card and see if it boots up properly.

How do I get the stock RUU back? Is there a PG05IMG.zip file for it that I can use? These are the original settings I had prior to flashing the radio:

MECHA XD ENG S-OFF

HBOOT-1.04.2000 (PG0510000)

No problem. This is going off topic. Sorry for the mess. I'm sending you a PM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] josh0426:
You need to rename the RUU zip to PG05IMG.zip. Put it on the root of SDcard. boot phone into bootloader, it will ask you if you want to update and you accept. then it should install the RUU.
