"Mobile Network" greyed out
Sometimes I will completely lose my data connection on this phone and when I go Quick Settings I noticed that the "Mobile Network" check box will be unchecked and greyed out so I can't even re-check it to enable the mobile network. This has happened several times randomly and I know that I'm not accidentally unchecking the…

Thunderbolt drops 4G off and on
My Tbolt won't stay in 4G mode. It will do fine for a few days, and then drop to 3G, or sometimes 1x, and occasionally, nothing. I'm right in the middle of OKC where there is great 4G coverage. My wife also has a TBolt, and hers is locked solid to 4G at 20Mbps, while mine won't even acknowledge 4G's existence. Same thing…
I won't get fooled again...
Had a DroidX. Great battery, excellent signal, everything on and about the phone worked. Loved Verizon and spent more time and money in my local Verizon store than my wife did shopping for the kids at Wal Mart. Got unlimited data and enjoyed it so much I signed up my wife and got her a data plan, too. Bought into the hype…

GB Update
My TB was updated on October 28th. I've noticed a few minor issues. My Email app no longer syncs correctly. I use a free Email client from the Android Market. It is called "Mail" (see next issue for more) and I only synch one email address (comcast.net account) to it. Since the update It no longer syncs every 15 minutes…
Data Drop
This phone constantly disables the data connection. I'll be just fine one minute with 4G or 3G and the next minute the phone has automatically disabled the mobile network. I've tried *#*#4636#*#* and *22899 and ##778 and nothing has fixed the issue. I've also enabled data roaming. **bleep** Verizon?!?!

I have an HTC Thunderbolt with a LCD problem. There is no visible damage, but there is a part of the screen about half an inch wide that runs top to bottom where the touchscreen doesn't work.

One of the main reasons for getting this 350 dollar phone is for the front facing camera for skypeing my business partners and girlfriend who lives hours away.
