From IRC -

<slayher> mikea, Here is alittle update. RIL/3g/4g is working. MMS/SMS is working. The issue we are trying to resolve now is data hand-off from different types, and from on-off. In other words, if you lose data for any reason, you have to reboot to get it back

<slayher> and, wifi isnt working either
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
It's edging closer! Getting even more excited!
[Thunderbolt General] gospeed.racer:
this is awesome news! Keep up the great work guys! Cant wait to get rid of Sense and back to the simplicity of Cyan!
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
If you haven't seen any videos of CM7 on the thunderbolt that Slayher posted on Youtube... don't.. I'm even more excited. I can't wait to try gingerbread out way before others. Not to mention the amazing looks.
[Thunderbolt General] evilkokonut:
link to the videos?
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZjH1bNRJnU

Is the only one I have seen, it was post a lil while back, but gives us a taste of what it will look like.
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
For those that just wanna try CM7 out, I compiled this for my brothers TB:

http://db.tt/eKyifsu

Confirmed phone calls and wifi work, SMS and data do not.

[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
So this is a stable build as far as not bricking the phone?
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Flashing roms won't brick your phone, but yes it as stable as you can get it right now.

[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
Thanks for info man. I'll prolly hafta check it out.
[Thunderbolt General] andrew53517:
Were getting soooo close :D

Thunderbolt Rooted!
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Aw man, this just makes me want the RIL to commit more than ever..
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Changed the download link.

This message has been approved by Skynet.
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Old link was the build from the 19th. This is from the 21st, I take it?

I don't see any new commits or anything since the 18th.
[Thunderbolt General] meirg:
Downloading now, can't wait to try it out. Thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] meyer77:
Awesome!!! Can't wait for a final build. This is great to play around with.
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Nope same build, just moved it to a different dropbox folder. There have been general changes to CM7 I have added but I won't post anything until I find out from my brother if the build still works. I don't have a TB and can't test them myself.

[Thunderbolt General] juanzho11:
Really nice,it has a bunch of little glitches(like autocorrection) and some keyboard errors, and cannot add any apns but wifi and calls works.

Really nice sp far.

P.s. no market either
[Thunderbolt General] tgwaste:
mirror of the cm7 build

:)
[Thunderbolt General] tgwaste:
gapps must always been installed on CM for things like the market
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
That is some sweet stuff! Had to flash back to das Bamf can't wait till everything's working.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Just tried it and well I think after all this I may just stay with sense after all. I will wait till the final release to make my decision but I think HTC really did a great job on sense this time without making it overbearing.
[Thunderbolt General] mmtoman:
running the cm7 someone put up. Coming from the dinc (got the tbolt TODAY) not having cm7 made me extremely sad inside :(.

What Doesn't Work:

cameras

sms

3g data (which is super important)

What Does Works:

wifi

calling

gps is perfect

all market apps

REALLY EVERYTHING ELSE

Seems like a huge step towards stable cm7 on the thunderbolt!!!
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Mobile data and SMS won't work until ril is merged (hence you cannot add any apn's currently). I didn't know the camera doesn't work. But for the most part this is just a test build to give people the feel of CM7. It's not intended as a daily driver, unless you can live without data and SMS.

[Thunderbolt General] GutterIsATool:
I would recommend the Tesla Coil ROM until CM7 is finalized. With Launcher Pro, it's at least a manageable replacement.
[Thunderbolt General] mmtoman:
I know its just a rough build my post was just to let people know. Seeing cm on the thunderbolt was a beautiful beautiful thing
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Cameras DO work by the way. Only previews don't. If you push the shutter, it takes pictures fine. 3rd party camera apps work with previews, too.
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:

Hahaha. Thank you. I always wonder if anybody actually gets my screen name.
[Thunderbolt General] th0r615:
Coming from a N1 running CM7 to the Thunderbolt has been though... sense can be pretty but it feels sluggish and overbearing to me. Its nice to finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
[Thunderbolt General] Adrozz07:
Can you blow me where the pampers is?

Blundered from my Dunderbolt
[Thunderbolt General] ddrj:
I can't wait for CM7 , this is my first android phone and my first smartphone ever heh. I would love a streamlined version of my phone without the verizon and htc gadgets and without sense.

Good luck slayher and thanks EVERYONE for contributions and help :)
[Thunderbolt General] jgrimberg1979:
Lol
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Per the github today:

Update device and system prop for proper data handling.

slayher

One step closer, lol
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Already building, but I'm drinking right now. So you won't see anything until maybe tomorrow.

Woo! I love updates!!
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Nightlys should begin tonight as 7.0.1 is being released. That is when cyanogenmod said that mecha would be released
[Thunderbolt General] m00nshake:
Seriously? Link or it didn't happen... ;)
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Nice. Get yourself a donate link, too. It's finals week or I'd be putting a red hat partition together, so I appreciate you compiling it for me (us)!
[Thunderbolt General] MrKleen1:
I will take you at your word, that is awesome! I hope they are far enough along to start putting out the "beginning" for the T-Bolt!
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
It's on MrBobrowitz twitter.
[Thunderbolt General] mmtoman:
BONER BONER BONER

Its finally happening!!!!

Too bad I flashed a rom with like 5% battery and I have a soft brick til I get an external charger and second battery from Amazon.

Just a reminder for everyone follow the first rule of rom-ing...

DONT FLASH WITH LOW BATTERY.

I'm on a damn palm pixi til my stuff comes from Amazon Tuesday :(
[Thunderbolt General] Veridor:
Ouch.
[Thunderbolt General] PorscheGuy:
Had this happen to me a couple years ago on an OQO PC. I went to Radio Shack and bought some old-looking universal charger that matched the voltage and amp specs for like $10, cut and stripped the wires and attached them to the battery connectors for about 30 minutes and that did the trick!
[Thunderbolt General] djkeller3:
Who is Mykegger, and is he the one who would be putting the nightly out? If so, how about dropping the nightly first and then drink to celebrate?!
[Thunderbolt General] doug piston:
About 3-4 nights ago it was still missing the GPS as well. I'm sure all will be fine in time.
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
Meh as long as data and sms is ok. I'm cool.
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
I'm mykegger, and no, I don't release official nightly's. I only compile builds for my own use. The nightly will only drop when teamdouche can make it happen, no eta's. It could be tomorrow or next month. So celebrate and drink now! :D

PS, no donate link cause I did it for fun, not for profit.

This message has been approved by Skynet.
[Thunderbolt General] djkeller3:
I saw a tweet from Slayher that what they're trying to resolve right now is if you lose data at any point, you have to reboot the phone to get it back.

Heck, if that's the biggest issue, I'd flash it. I don't care if I have to reboot. I need this ROM, and I know it will all get fixed in up-coming nightlies, just like all other problems.
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
So did I misunderstand the messages above saying it would be released tonight for the thunderbolt. And as far as I no data is fixed also. Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Thunderbolt General] jaymccoubrey:
You tube, text, 3g dont work
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
Since when?
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Data is fixed, has been for a while, however merging the mecha ril into the cm7 github breaks the build for every other device running it. When they can merge it without any problems you'll get it. Release date is never known. No eta's is the first rule of cm.

Back to my friend beer. Have fun TB people. (New build is complete, just needs a little more baking)

This message has been approved by Skynet.
[Thunderbolt General] jaymccoubrey:
I been useing it mostof the day now. It is cool but also onfinshed. I put it on my freinds inspire. Its alot more polished on that
[Thunderbolt General] Southern_mind:
I really want to see how this looks on the Bolt
[Thunderbolt General] jaymccoubrey:
There a link a coulpe pages back
[Thunderbolt General] Nobody's Hero:
Can we get one of you chaps with a new compile to share it (the one linked a few pages back is a couple days old), it would save everyone from having to compile it individually.

Also, maybe it's time for a new thread specifically for test compiles until official nightlys start dropping?
[Thunderbolt General] TheLoonyRebel:
I totally agree with that idea. :D
[Thunderbolt General] BotsOne:
So was the RIL merged?

Edit: nevermind I checked github =P
[Thunderbolt General] mmtoman:
I agree with you agreeing. Let's get test compiles going!
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
No reason to believe ril won't be merged tonight i trust Mr bob..... For now.
[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
You can start a new thread, here is the newest build, beer and bacon together.

http://db.tt/s8sjuWP

It's not tested yet.

[Thunderbolt General] mykegger:
Double post, beer good.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Downloading now but what are we getting with this release?
[Thunderbolt General] m00nshake:
Is CM7.0.1 definitely going up tonight?
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Maybe, someone close to slayher said it was but he obviously could be lieing. So noone really knows except slayher
[Thunderbolt General] bhilgeman:
Flashing now, will report back soon. This is a good day, even if its broken it just feels good to be flashing CM :)
[Thunderbolt General] Nobody's Hero:
You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you.
[Thunderbolt General] TheLoonyRebel:
My avatar approves of the bacon part. :D
[Thunderbolt General] DROIDNP:
Thank you downloading now
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
It doesn't have data. The ril isn't merged yet but that is everything else. For now.
[Thunderbolt General] jvward:
Mykegger data doesnt work on that mecha_signed_042311_193843.zip

Just an fyi for anyone whos about to flash it.
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
Obviously people. Ril isn't merged yet.....
[Thunderbolt General] adamd1169:
Damn. Now I really miss cm7. lol
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Okay so just reread Mr. Bobs tweet and we should expect cm7 when 7.0.1 nightlies begin, anyone know when that is?
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
No....
[Thunderbolt General] smeager:
I'm mykegger's brother who he has been compiling these builds for. The latest build he provided still has all the same things working, and same things not working.

It's really smooth running, and as soon as the ril is merged many (if not all of) the issues not working will be fixed I'm certain.
[Thunderbolt General] DS36:
When conected to wifi you cannot tell the difference. Going to make a nand of this.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
All we are waiting for is the ril and cm should be ready to go. Everything i read from slayhers twitter shows that most features are working correctly.
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Bluetooth is a go. Slaylers wife said it's done. So close i can taste it
[Thunderbolt General] lpd0084:
Seems like she gives better updates thank him lol

Pity the noob as u were pitied in ur noobishness
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
And it's now his daily driver. This is a win. I give it a, week from what his wife has said
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
Who was it that was saying it.was supposed to be released tonight? I want to stone him! Woohoo! Everything works!
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Haha MrBobrowitz said it was coming out im a messenger
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Here is a build released by slayher. Works great.

I believe I see a commit with a pre-built kernel and modules. Build time?
[Thunderbolt General] mmtoman:
coming from the dinc to thunderbolt, I miss the dinc having cm7. In my opinion the stock sense experience is so terrible, bloated, and just straight childish looking, I think i'd rather have like an og droid with aosp android then the sensation running sense. truth spittin right there:)

Is slayher the only on working on this/testing this or is it a group of people?
[Thunderbolt General] andrew53517:
Just him and maybe a few other but not much. I think he needs to start bringing it out to have other devs to help him fix the data. It'd go faster. Why put all the pressure on yourself?!

Thunderbolt Rooted!
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Its done for the most part from what I have heard. Just hold on guys just a little longer.
[Thunderbolt General] andrew53517:
No I understand, I was just saying if you can't figure out the data problem then release and have other eyes look at it. That's all. But I know, getting pretty excited haha

Thunderbolt Rooted!
[Thunderbolt General] madzozs:
I've never bothered running ROM's until I got the TBolt. I had a Captivate before I bailed on At&t and just rooted it for the sake of rooting it. Then I got the Droid X and rooted it as well, but never really did anything to it. I've been running BAMF, and then bamf remix when they split and I enjoy it greatly. I am kind of excited to see how smooth I can get the phone running with CM7. Only thing I will miss is the Sense Dialer. I like being able to type out the first few letters and having the numbers pull up. I remember the majority of the numbers I normally call, but it's nice to have the ability to do it this way.
[Thunderbolt General] qwirked:
I'm am so looking forward to a final and :official: CyanogenMod release. I would honestly run cm6 right now if it was an option. All the same I am definitely looking coward to being able to usb tether again and general cyanogen goodness.
[Thunderbolt General] mmtoman:
stop asking for eta's people let the awesome developers do what they do best and be patient.

I mean yes I've stayed up late at night having wet dreams thinking about cm7 on my thunderbolt, but let these guys do their thing.

Just think how sweet it will be after waiting having some scrumshus aosp goodness on this beast!!! ;)
[Thunderbolt General] LexusBrian400:
Usb tether.... PdaNet much? :) I use it all the time. Its way more reliable then even the Mobile Hotspot app we have for free until May 15th. Sad but true. MH resets for me all the time.
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Hahah I know TeamAndIRC posted that on twitter but I knew that more people would click if I said slayher.
[Thunderbolt General] djkeller3:
I think Slayher should put up a working DONATE button. He is a great developer working his tail off and we should support him!
[Thunderbolt General] andrew53517:
What launcher do you guys use with CM7? Adw, adw ex, launcher pro? Or other?

Thunderbolt Rooted!
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
I lean towards adw but neither is terrible and could see myself using either. Go launcher is coming up strong as well.
[Thunderbolt General] Bimmer323:
I use ADW on any rom, i think it was the first thing i downloaded when i got the TB.

Man, can't wait for cm7, really miss it.

Sent from my infected ADR6400L.
[Thunderbolt General] andrew53517:
Those of you that use adw, do you use adw ex? If so, was it worth the purchase? Debating about buying it? Sorry for off topic talk, just curious.

Thunderbolt Rooted!
[Thunderbolt General] juanzho11:
Yes its very nice,it works pretty good no regrets.

[Thunderbolt General] happimeal:
Ok so probably dumb question, what's with the youtube link redirects?
[Thunderbolt General] winklethemoose:
People are just being dumb.
[Thunderbolt General] LeoD:
I've purchased both lpp and adw ex but always default to lpp. Mostly cause of lpp bookmark widget. Don't like to just have bookmarks just pasted on the screen
[Thunderbolt General] meirg:
Honestly, I like the free ADW better, bought EX and went back to free one, just my opinion, still worth buying to support the devs. Now I'm on launcher pro and I like it better for the 3d
[Thunderbolt General] m00nshake:
Ummm... Data still missing though, eh?
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
I believe 17 hours ago there was a commit that'd allow data. Could be wrong, but I can't build ATM, so I'm hoping someone will soon.
[Thunderbolt General] bhilgeman:
I think it's awesome if they get the ril libs added without breaking cm for everyone else, but it would be cool as a temp crack fix to put the libs needed for data in a flashable zip to flash after the rom.. I've been running the broken data build since last night, just jumping on wifi all day. Its gonna suck flashing back to a sense build before going to work tomorrow to use data. I thought my TB was meh with sense, but CM makes everything better :)

Cubs are making a comeback :)

Thatisall kthxbai
[Thunderbolt General] Odinist:
I ran it for a bit. Not having data wasn't a biggie, I just used wifi. If it weren't for the fact that texts dont work, it could be a daily driver.

Fast as hell though.
[Thunderbolt General] jawonder:
Can't you use when in wifi area say at home and then restore a buckup of another rom when on the go ? .
[Thunderbolt General] Irish Cream:
****in awesome. Let me know if you need testers

I'll test, im not willing to brick in the name of root tho haha, anyways when you get a nice rom HMU and ill run it for a while.

Thunderbolt here as well, ready to help with anything. No 4G in my area yet, so I need SOMETHING to help me remain excited on this device.
[Thunderbolt General] Sirjacksinurbox:
Another thunderbolt here, ready and willing to test. Much appreciated for all of your hard work guys.
[Thunderbolt General] otto888:
Hopefully a Thunderbolt will arrive at my house soon(Having to find a way to have data only plan with it) If the "small business" trick I've heard about works, sign me up as a tester.

Going to start work on some roms now, although I dont have a device, if you wish to test jump on irc.andirc.net #thunderbolt and /query Captainkrtek

:)
[Thunderbolt General] GrdLock:
How long has it typically taken for CM to get ported to other new devices?

I'm not rushing or complaining or anything... I know first hand from the Eris days how stressful it can be dealing with ROMs when you have people rushing you and complaining. ;)

I'm just wondering if I should take the time to go ahead and do some customizations to my phone or not. If CM7 will be available in less than a week, there's no point in spending time customizing my phone too much since I plan on wiping it and flashing CM7 when available. But if it might take longer, I may as well go ahead and do SOMETHING to my phone for the time being, since it's already rooted. :)
[Thunderbolt General] R1lover:
Great to see this coming along....

To the question above.... Koush was the only one working on the inc for the first month or more... it took about 2 months to get a fully working CM for the inc. At that time not many of the other guys went for the inc, but Koush stuck with it and cyanogen also got involved on some bugs and gave us some CM goodness!

The thunderbolt seems to have a much larger following in just what.... 2 days already... so I would expect something CM bootable in the next week or two. I know I read it was already compiled, but the new device bugs can give some issues.
[Thunderbolt General] evilmunkeh:
donations go directly to the CM7 project or to slayher directly? I'd like to donate, but I'd like clarification first as well as a donate link.
[Thunderbolt General] bmcclure937:
Is Slayher (the developer supposedly working on this) going to post a status update? I feel like donations are being made but nobody is keeping the community informed as to what development has taken place!
