Please read the FAQ before posting questions. I might of already answered your question in the FAQ.

If you have any general questions post them in the Thunderbolt Q&A.

If you have any ROM/kernel/radio/RUU specific question ask in the appropriate thread for that. Please do not post them in the thread for this listing as you are not as likely to get your question answered as quickly as you would in the appropriate thread.

For those wondering about DemoMan's Verizon Trade In experience.

IX – FAQ

Q: How do I get my ROM/kernel listed on here?
A: Your ROM/kernel must meet all the requirements to be listed on XDA. Along with that it must be listed on XDA in the proper Thunderbolt Development area with the latest release listed in the title of the thread so I can easily know when a new version is released. Finally you must properly credit anyone else's work. I will not tolerate listing any ROMs/kernels that kang from other developers and not give proper credit where its due.

Q: How can I submit info for my ROM?
A: Just private message me here on XDA with any info you want me to include with your ROM infos such as developer credits, potential chat room for discussion for said ROM, and other infos you would find of use to the listing. Also if you want me to update any info about your ROM you can private message that to me as well.

Q: Okay I got questions to ask about ROMs such as which is the best one to use... where can I get answers?
A: The best place I recommend is to post in the Thunderbolt Q&A area here on XDA. Be sure to click on the "Yes, this is a Question" option as well when putting together your post asking your important question.

Q: AOSP? CyanogenMod? Debloat? RUU? What does all this gibber talk mean?
A: The Thunderbolt Root User's Dictonary maintained by MattBeyers does a great job at explaining all of this.

Q: What happened to Chingy's ROMs? What happened to Team BAMF ROMs? Why are they no longer listed?
A: All three have for various reasons decided to leave XDA. Therefore by XDA rules I can no longer list them. I greatly apologize for this.

Q: What happened to KDKobes ROMs?
A: Due to KDKobes kanging from other developers I am no longer listing those ROMs.

X – Thanks And Credits
Demolition Man thanks.... First and foremost thanks to all the developers for all the hard work that has been put into all the amazing work. With you developers we would have none of the amazing ROMs, kernels... let alone this listing wouldn't exist.

Thanks to both XDA and Droid Forums for letting me run this listing.

Thanks to the numerous contributions from members on both forums including some great feedback which has help make this listing even better. I might not have said you by name but you know who you are. Trust me I'm very thankful for all your feedback.

Thanks to Blizzard for creating the worst crack ever... World Of Warcraft. Thanks to Major League Soccer. Thanks to the city of Pawnee, IN especially their Parks And Recreations department. Thanks to Mountain Dew Throwback for giving me some fuel when updating the listing. Thanks to Ring Of Honor. Thanks to both the New England Patriots and Minnesota Vikings.

And thank you all XDA and Droid Forum members for all the support!

 

[KenMarion21]

Good work sir.

 

[XKXDISTURBEDXKX]

Love the work you've put in, I check everyday

[Demolition Man]

If you haven't heard already I highly recommend everyone to revert back to Froyo based ROMs (and the respect Froyo radios) as the leaked Gingerbread radio is causing some TB's to randomly brick for no reason. I have added a disclaimer in the ROM listings advising on this as well.

Thanks jcase and Team AndIRC on bringing this issue forth.

 

[guitarboy1193]

If I flash a back up that had froyo radio installed, will it have that radio or will I have to dl and install via bootloader?

You have to download and install via bootloader.

 

[project e46m3]

I have had major issues with Das BAMF 2.0-5 Beta...every time I load this roam with the GB radio it gets stuck/hangs at the Thunderbolt Splashscreen.

However I didnt have this issue with Chingy's Gingeritis GB Rom...Go figure???

 

[Demolition Man]

Please Read This Before Going Forward With Anything Gingerbread Sense Based.

 

[DaWolf85]

The latest Das BAMF version is now 1.7.

Features of 1.7

• Smoother Rosie that is slightly tweaked visually.
• Sped up animations.
• Clear lockscreen.
• Disabled menu unlock on aosp lockscreen.
• New default HTC wallpaper.
• Updated TiBu.
• Updated Maps.

 

[Demolition Man]

A few of the versions had been updated to 1.7 such as the standard release. Some of the other ones such as remix and stripped are now just getting updated to 1.7 so I'm updating the listing accordingly.

 

[Dark Lazer]

Just a heads up for anyone with the Virus rom. The dev has been busy with a rom on the Evo lately. Recently, supposedly his girlfriend lost her Tbolt and he lent her his until she gets a new one, so he can't do much on his Tbolt for the time being, but he claims there will be an update sometime.

Personally I'm using his current release and it's the most stable rom I've used (even compared to newer roms) so here's to hoping his newer releases will be even better.
