With every cell of my body and every fiber of my soul, I absolutely hate...no, not hate...LOATHE this God forsaken, mother#&$%ing, piece of petrified rhino sh!t !!!! When I get another phone, I'm not going to sell it. No, no. I'm going to hate f#ck (not literally) the soul out of this thing with a 30LB sledgehammer!! Then I'm going to take every last piece and shove them into the forehead of Peter Chou (HTC CEO) so that every time he looks in the mirror, he's reminded to NEVER make such a horrid device EVER again.

Ditch Facebook. It runs down your battery and slows things down. Plus it's just the HTML5 site with a crap wrapper. Get Flipster or Scope. Then get Haxsync, goto your accounts and sync, add Haxsync, and voila! It'll sync your contacts, pictures, and even FB feed of your contacts into your contacts.

Haxsync has a free and paid version. I paid the $1 to support the dev. A tip though, go into Preferences, Contact Settings, and check the bottom option Force redownload. Also, if you have duplicates, you can select Manage Contacts under Contact Settings and merge contacts. It's great.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gab1972:
Have you heard anything about the battery life of the Gnex? I have a friend who has to carry an extra battery around with him. Not that we don't have to do that with these things.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
Before this phone I had the Sprint Nexus S 4G. I am all too familiar with poor battery life . But look at it this way... the TB has craptastic battery life as well. The thing is that the Gnex is a developer phone which means it will always have software support until the hardware just won't support it anymore. Unlike this phone where they (HTC) are more than happy to forget it exists.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] recDNA:
I really LIKE my thunderbolt thanks to all the work of developers to keep it current. I cannot deny that the loss of the development community will soon make it obsolete.

I get decent life with the extended battery and I don't mind the bulk. If I have to choose (and I do) between a phone with outdated software and good data reception and a phone with a snazzy look, up to date operating system, and mediocre data reception I will pick the good data every time. I just don't trust Sammy data receptivity.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gab1972:
The only thing about the Gnex is no external SD. But I'll just get the 32GB. I read that the Gnex is a developer phone, but isn't that only for SIM card carriers like AT&T and TMo?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
No... the Galaxy Nexus is a phone built for Google by an outside contractor Samsung. Much like the Nexus S it uses the AOSP based rom which as we all know is pure android. There's no RUU's to figure out no RILs... the OS just works naturally with the phone.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gab1972:

--never mind-- not polite to talk about another phone/price here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
Don't get new wrong, I will continue to use this until it's time to move on. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dumas777:
Yes please don't torture us unfortunates stuck with the POS tbolt lol. Still even if no other rom comes out I am ok with being stuck with this phone for awhile. Liquid/Jesters roms rule for my use and will keep me up to date long enough (be awhile before ics 4 is totally obsolete). If you are in the US check out page plus cellular and they can flash your tbolt so that you get to use Verizon's network (page plus piggy backs on their network) but pay page plus rates which for me because I hardly use data is only about $12 a month (250 min, 250 text). Screw verizon and $90 a month just to own a smart phone.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fooshack:
Voicemail number

Can someone please tell me where I can find the voicemail number in settings? I like to add in my passcode to the number so I don't have to enter it in every time. I found it before and changed it on the last version, but I can't find it on this one. Feeling like a dumbass.

Thanks,

foos

where can you find the free version i don't see it in the play store...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] animez:
Yup, looks like the Tbolt is a sinking ship. My upgrade date is Nov. 18th and I'm counting the days. This phone has not been horrible, but it still feels like it's time is up. Unless the HTC DIX ends up being the Nexus 5 I'll be rockin' a Moto Razr Maxx HD in a little over a month. Yes the bootloader will be locked, but I'm sure it will be rootable and that's more important to me anyway.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gab1972:
I think I might have been mistaken on Haxsync. I think that's a paid app. Sorry. It's only $0.99 though.

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

I couldn't take it anymore. I scored a near mint Nexus off of CL for $200 that included the extended battery. Sorry guys.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jonah1234:
My guess is that the "DIX" is code name for Droid Incredible X since the one x and the one x+ and that's definitely what I'm waiting for. I hope it has all the same specs as the one x + except 5.0 inch screen but I'm also fine with 4.7 inch.

Just announced yesterday that the LG Optimus is the new Google Nexus phone. It looks like an iPhone if you ask me: rectangle with slight rounded corners, flat glossy back, metallic rim, etc. Any bets on how long it takes Apple to go trolling for patents on design??

Still, the LG has CRAZY specs!! Quad-Core processor! I've never owned an LG, so I don't know about their quality. I was eyeing up the Note 2 if it would come to Verizon, but as I told someone else, Verizon is gang raping people on this new Share Everything plan. If you have unlimited data, better to start saving your pennies and buy off Craigslist or EBay.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
We will see.. I remember back in the day when LG had crap hardware... yup... I said it.. .crap hardware... a CD drive that would die in 3 months right after the 90 day warranty was crap.... Then again my youngest niece's LG was pretty sweet before someone stole it.

In any case, I keep wanting to try the latest NuSense but I just can't give up how smooth this rom is. I love AOSP roms... plain and simple. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] recDNA:
Get boot manager. Enjoy both!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mooneyspam:
I'm not leaving this phone for a while, I'm happy that it at least gives me decent signal at my house. Anyways, anyone want the DTR for this rom? I noticed I was being throttled earlier and even found it under the /system/throttle folder since I use 3G. There is info about it on:

http://forums.infectedrom.com/showthread.php/840-Data-Throttle-Remover

It hasnt been really active in a while, so I ended up having to figure out the steps for myself and was able to use one of Wildstang83's flashable pack. Not sure where is best to upload it, let me know and I can get it uploaded whereever you like. I've had 2 reboots in 3 days since I reinstalled MR3V1, not sure if it is the rom or the DTR(or that I'm still using MR2 radio) but my data is back to being fast so that's all I care about.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
I would try updating to a newer radio but that is just my two cents.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ohiog:
Is it me or is chrome not really as responsive as the browser
[Thunderbolt Android Development] animez:
Feels that way to me too. I love Chrome on my desktop, but the Android version still feels half-baked to me.

I don't know, unless HTC really brings it with the DIX hardware I think I'm done with them. If they are going to take the SD card slot off all their phones $200 should buy us a minimum of 16GB of built in space. If they are going to make all the batteries non-replaceable they need to put one in the phone that's big enough to last all day with average to semi-heavy usage.

Whatever I upgrade to I'm not buying it the first day it's available like I did with the TBolt. I gonna make myself wait till I can get some honest feedback on it from the forums and tech blogs. That's why I'm glad the new Razrs are supposed to drop a month before my upgrade.

Sent from my Jellybean Kindle Fire
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gab1972:
I learned this lesson too. I thought the TBolt being Verizon's flagship FIRST 4G-LTE phone, it would be the bomb...instead, it just bombed. They and HTC took so long to [supposedly] fix the random reboots. They are STILL messing around trying to get an official ICS update rolled out. It just seemed like they ditched it a month after. 3 months after it came out, they abandoned it for the newer stuff. Which is why I'm starting to lean more towards the Nexus family. At least it seems they have more of a fighting chance of getting official updates sooner than the overlay baked phones like Sense and TouchWhiz phones. When you think about a regular update for these: Google has to push it, then the manufacturer has to bake in their stuff, then the carrier has to put their crapware in it, and THEN maybe they'll push it out to you. I'm thinking a straight Google experience phone will take a step or two out.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tuckandroll:
which of the DTR packs are you using from the site?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
Google pushes the ota out to aosp phones on other carriers except for Verizon. Verizon won't let them so they can add crap to it too.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DrunkUncas:
I ran it the last few days. Absolutely no comparison in terms of smoothness and battery life.

I'd like a camcorder, but I'm not willing to have a choppy ROM to do so.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] danscxda:
I am going to give it a try. I have been running Skyraider for a while now and I think it's time for a change.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jonah1234:
do it man, you definitely wont be disappointed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mooneyspam:
They are custom for the ROM. There wasn't one so I had to make one, not sure where to upload it to though, havent uploaded crap for years. I can upload it if you like, just tell me where.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hexhead:
+1 Tried NuSense for a couple of weeks. Seems like everything works ok including the video recorder, but I'm hooked on AOSP now. Sense is just senseless. This ROM is much faster and smoother.

May I suggest an Aroma installer for inverted apps or offering an inverted copy of your sms?

Also, is there any way to mass text with ICS? Like checkbox the people you want?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] danscxda:
I was disappointed. Not in the ROM, but for whatever reason I can't get away from the old Sense based ROMS. When I do my radio reception cuts 1/2. I have three different versions of the radio's, including the latest leaked. All 3 of them perform the same way. I get full bars on 3G with a sense rom but a liquid based rom gives me 1 or none in the same location. Any ideas?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sg1dan:
i think that the rom is not reporting the bars correctly. i have't have a single issue with reception, dropped calls or slow internet speeds.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 4shlr:
Ok, I know I read it in here somewhere but it's lost in all posts now. Been running this rom since it's release. Absolutely love it, it has convinced me that my next phone (upgrade Nov 18th!) will be a Nexus phone. Hoping Verizon will get smart & grab the Sony version but not holding my breath. Up until yesterday I hadn't tried to use the wifi hot spot function. The native app never worked. I dl'd open garden & couldn't get that to work either. Any advice? Like I said, I know I read it in here somewhere so I apologize... Any help would be great.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] danscxda:
I am back onto the ROM today since I have some time to play. Right now I am running through all the radio's. I am sticking with the 0.02.00.0312r for LTE since I don't use 4G much and want the stable wifi. Currently I am cycling through all 4 different CDMA radio's and throwing speedtest at them to see if I notice any performance difference. I will find the best one, and run with this ROM for a few days and see how it performs.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
Download wireless tether. Set the device profile to Google nexus and check routing fix and you should be good to go. I leave setup method at auto. I have seen others that have problems when they change that.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 4shlr:
Ok, is it the app that comes native with the rom? Or the other one listed in play store? And which nexus model do I choose? Sorry for all the questions! :o
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
I am using the nexus one profile and the wireless tether that was included with the rom. Not the built in tether.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dkindig:
WiFi Tether app that comes with the ROM, Google NexusOne for the profile, check the option for WiFi-driver reload and check the option for Routing fix. Works like a champ!

Ah, crud. I hope that is a bad rumor. This ICS ROM is the best I've had on my bolt. I only wish cam corder worked then it would be my DD. I hope someone with time and skills can fix that sometime soon. Did we ever get HTC source from the first leak?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Kiyuubi:
I want le link, please.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trter10:
Its not a rumor lol he said it
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
Honestly the bolt is past its prime. It doesn't shock me that it's not going to see any JB it sucks but most companies won't update software unless it some how benefits them. Why drop a software update when they can sell you a new phone. That's Apple's logic and its worked so far. That's not to say that HTC won't update these phones with ICE but it has been, what, 3 months coming now and all we've heard was Verizon has the update... if they do they are awful right lipped about it.

That's why I'm just happy that these guys got these ICS builds going as good as they have.

I have got one thing that's bugging me. NuSense is now on ICE 4.0.4. How did he first and keep the camera working and can that info be used for these roms?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] quickdraw86:
the camera works in the thunderbolt leak base (BAMF ICS leak) that Nusense is based on. the move to 4.0.4 was a result of merging the thunderbolt ICS leak and the desire S official ICS RUU. official kernel source for the final version of thunderbolt ICS would be of great help for this ICS AOSP rom, as anything that worked or was modified to work for sense ICS otherwise would have to be adapted to work on AOSP anyway. as liquid no longer owns a bolt and is focusing on the other (12?) devices he supports, development on this rom now and potentially in the future could be at an end, but i hope not.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
Go launcher and the paid adw launcher let you increase or decrease icon sizes. I think adw does but I'm not positive.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] recDNA:
i believe all they do is let you change 1x1 to 2x2. What I need is something to decrease pixels per inch so icons actually look large without reducing the number of icons per screen.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
Like I said go launcher ex lets you do that. Not widgets. ICONS...... I would give more detailed info but I haven't used go launcher since I switched to ics and started using apex pro.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] recDNA:
I meant widgets. Some widgets open up when clicked so I referred to those as icons incorrectly I guess.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
I'm waiting on them to smooth out Apex some more. The home screens are too laggy and jittery while scrolling so I switched back to Trebuchet.

This rom is solid. Makes me use my tbolt over my gnex. I need simultaneous voice and 3g data, which the gnex lacks.

Anyway, I have grown accustom to having a recent app button. I know I could enable on screen nav soft keys but I don't want to lose the screen area. I would like to use the hard soft keys for a recent app button. I know I can assign it to long press the home key and that works, but I would like to change the search key to be for the recent apps. Is this possible? Is there a way to change the functions of the hard soft keys? Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
Oh my bad. So you want to resize the widgets? I'm not sure I understand. I know that if you take a widget down that small that isn't a 1x1 or 2x2 it will be a jumbled mess.

I noticed something odd today. Sometimes, when I back out of an app instead of taking me to the home page it takes me into the last app I was in. When I back out of that one it goes to a previous app and so on down the entire list of recent apps never arriving home unless I press the home button. Even long pressing back to kill the app only takes me to some previous app.

Has this happened to you? Is there a fix?

Small problem I know but kind of interesting I think.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ramos247:
long press back kills apps? where I change that setting? I miss that
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FirePsych:
It's happened to me on different roms. I don't know what causes it, but if put yhe screen to sleep and wake, I can usually get out of the loop and then use Cache Cleaner or something to clean things up.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] drkrbl:
I have come across this too. I contribute it to the launcher process stopping/crashing, and the only way to (re)start that process is to press the home button. Pressing home tells Android OS to "launch the launcher"

Take my explanation with a grain of salt. I'm no developer but it makes sense to me :cool:
