Are you still happy with your Thunderbolt?

I don't agree. I think the Razr HD Maxx blows away my old Thunderbolt. It seems to be much easier to see outside. I'm much happier with this Motorola over that HTC.
There are pros and cons to both, but for me I rarely could see pixels on the Thunderbolt's low resolution display, compared to the HD displays of the GS3 and MAXX HD where I could see them more easily. Then when using the phone in low light both phones had a green tint. The Thunderbolt's display isn't the best of the best, but personally it looks clearer and shows colors more accurately than many of the newer phones.

Hahaha the bolt is almost 2 years old I would hope a phone just released might have a couple better perks the one X has the best screen on a phone to date!

You are correct about the age of the phones. We are just responding to someones comment about the Thunderbolts screen looking better than the RAZR, which isn't true. I also noticed, it is much easier to see the RAZR screen outside compared to the thunderbolt.

Well my 5th & last Tbolt died 2 weeks after I received it.
I bought a like new Rezound off EBay and could not be happier with it. It came with factory installed ICS, No problems for the month I have had it.
I did not know what fast was untill I got this speed demon!
There is a huge difference between ICS and the old op system, love ICS.
Do yourself a favor, throw TB away, buy a used phone.

I love my Thunderbolt, only problem I am having with it is that the 4G goes away then about 5-10 seconds later it comes back, then repeats. Besides that, great phone, can't complain.

I've been noticing that recently as well, but I think part of the issue is the ICS ROM I'm using.

I've tried that, but the problem still lies. Do you recommend a factory reset?

I think my phone is trying to tell me I need the new HTC DNA, lol.

In the past week, I've been experiencing tons of data drops. When it says 4G LTE, sometimes it will turn off the data for a few seconds, while other times it will continue to say 4G LTE but I can't use any mobile data. The phone has been acting a lot slower, and now a few apps are force closing...
