Credits: The RCMix Team and Samuel especially for a great base and all the input! Adrynalyne for providing moral support and figuring out that apparently HTC uses a "calibration" file for Wifi now. He saved my phone from certain death. The boys from IRC and gTalk who tried it out for me and kindly alerted me to my inability to actually fix things. :)

This ROM is based off of:

  • Enjoy!

Some Important Notes and Tips:
  • If you use Picasa, make sure you upload a photo from the phone BEFORE you sign into your google account. This will prompt you to sign in and save the credentials for the future. If you don't follow these steps, it won't work!
  • If you feel the need to "borrow" my work, please don't without my consent. I literally have 3 weeks straight in getting data, BT and WiFi working. I will be more than happy to point anyone in the right direction though.
  • To change the quick launch widgets on the home screen, press anywhere on the home screen and drag it to the bottom left "edit" icon. From there you will be able to pick and choose which apps you want for your quick launch widgets.


    Known Issues - if its listed here DO NOT ask about it in the thread:
    The following issues are known about and they are being worked on. Before you post an issue with this rom, you must be on a clean install. If you have not performed a clean install, then your issue cannot be considered valid.

    Some things that are just the nature of the beast:
    • SD Card Mounting
      - This comes with the advent of the 3LM device encryption that was introduced (it was here before, but not implemented) in Sense 3.5. This is similar encryption as to what is used in Blackberries that has made them so popular among corporate clients. With Blackberry on the downturn, Android, and more specifically HTC, is trying to get up to the standards set by RIM in an apparent attempt to pick up their business. Unfortunately, it is tied into nearly every aspect of the framework and apps and nearly impossible to disable without causing major issues down the line. I have done everything reasonable (and one not so reasonable thing) to make it work for as many folks as possible. If you are having problems with it, I would recommend you try a different SD card. My 32GB Sandisk Class 4 has no problems. I've also had good luck with an 8GB Samsung class 2.
      - If you experience the problem, unmounting and remounting the SD card will fix the issue.
    • Exchange policies
      - This also goes along with the increased security measures HTC is trying to implement. The EAS policies on Sense 3.5 are about 100 times stricter than they ever were before. Can I bypass them? Probably. I'm not going to do that though. They are there for a reason. Your company feels that they are needed for their safety, and I'm not in any position to tell them otherwise. You always have trade-offs when you run a rooted device, and in this case, your ability to have fancy battery icons, may prevent you from getting HTML emails from work. In my opinion, if your phone is that mission critical to your life, you should have either left it alone, or get a second.
    • Superuser errors
      - Ah the cost of progress. The SuperUser team is working hard to get an updated, more intuitive product to you. Unfortunately, it's making it a major pain in the arse to keep it up to date from version to version. If you get force closes, go into the app, and update the binaries. After a reboot, everything should be good.
    • NEW - Mail Accounts
      - While trying to figure out some of the syncing problems with Mail and settings not being retained, I found another major oopsy. I don't know if it's the mail app, or the accounts themselves, but if you use the "Gmail", "Yahoo", "Hotmail", etc... Accounts, you will have a number of problems.
      • None of them will sync properly
      • If you set options for one, they will be transferred to all of them and vice versa
      • Gmail will always BCC you when you reply
      • Hotmail will never delete on the server
      • Basically, it's a huge cluster f.
      I recommend you use the regular "Mail" account type and set your accounts up that way. Everything is smooth sailing that way. Unfortunately, to do this, you have to wipe data because in addition to the other issues, the accounts also won't delete. Yay HTC!
    • Burst Mode Force Closes Camera.
    • WiFi drops out
    • Mobile Hotspot won't connect - I'm still working on this.
    • Included VVM may or may not function
    • Using the alternate Lockscreen causes the notification bubbles on HTC shortcuts to look funny.
    • Using the alternate Launcher causes the notification bubbles on HTC shortcuts to look funny.
    • Some hub skins cause weird graphical errors.
    • HTC mail app - email portrait body preview reverts back to 2 lines after changing it

I ****ing love this ROM!! Was unaware of the 1.01 patch, getting ready to patch it up now... I didn't even notice anything wrong with the 4G speeds...
 
After I installed the ROM I didn't have a network, I was hoping the update would fix that and that was a negative. What am I missing. The check box by mobile network is even able to be checked (grey out).

What radio are you on?
 
The bad thing about Thunderbolts compared to OG Droids is that you have to update your Radio if the ROM doesn't support it. I'm on the MR3 radio that is working perfectly with this.

Grab the radio at the bottom of the OP on this page: [RS Approved] Guide to Thunderbolt Radios (this one: Baseband: 1.48.00.906w_1) and that'll put you on the most recently push radio, which should enable your data.

flashing radios is much different than roms, check out this post to go about doing that: [Guide] Flashing ROMS/KERNELS/RADIOS [Video/Pics]Based on my experience the radio is the cause of what you're experiencing, but If someone sees something wrong with what I said please jump in and correct me.
