Unable to send text to ONE person
I am able to send/recieve texts from all but ONE person from my thunderbolt. When I send a message to this one person I get an error back saying "Unable to send" Both the sender (me) and the reciever have no issue with others sending or recieving messages. Any clue?
Dialer and vibrate
Howdy. I've had my Thunderbolt several weeks now. No major complaints and is certainly a huge leap from the old HTC G1. There are only 2 things I can't figure out. First, when I tap the Phone icon to make a call the list that comes up does not include everyone. I'm not sure how it chooses who gets put in that list. It's…

Weather Widget Thanks
Thank you to the person who climbed my local tower and installed something so the HTC Weather Widget on my Thunderbolt now recognizes my hometown when I'm in it. I bet the thousands of Verizon Wireless employees that have worked in my hometown for years are equally thankful - and maybe a bit surprised!
Thunderbolt no more
I've had it with the constant battery pulls, losing data connection, lagging, freezing apps/widgets, weather never for the correct location. Oh and I failed to mention 90% of the time when I went to check email, they disappeared, I've been through 5 different types of android devices with Verizon. I've switched to the new…
Email app or OS problem?
Is there a third party email app that will properly display embedded pictures or is this simply a shortcoming of the operating system (non-rooted TB running GB)? [Edited to comply with Terms of Service]
Turn off crapware apps update notices
Like everyone else with this phone, mine came loaded with crapware from places like Blockbuster, Rhapsody, and several media apps from Verizon. I keep getting notices to update them. I don't ever intend to use any of them. Is there any way to tag the crapware apps to turn off update notices for them? I understand they…
Pictures that come in as Slideshows?
Why is it that when someone sends me a Picture it comes in as a slideshows& shows the picture like for 2 sec and goes back to the message, is there a setting I'm missing? I'm begging to HATE THIS THUNDER BOLT MORE & MORE!
Data connectivity
Where can we go to check for data connectivity outages? I've tried calling CSR's and each time it led down the road to "Factory Data Reset" even though it never resolved, and never had a chance of resolving my connectivity problem by doing so. It would be nice to get an answer the wasn't straight off a cue card. If there…

Facebook issue with new Thunderbolt
All, I just got my wife a new thunderbolt, and for now it's running stock sense. the Facebook app has an annoying issue however.

nfl mobile (premium) free?
Since the gb update my thunderbolt "found" a update to the nfl mobile app which I let install. Now when I log in in order to view content (red zone, nfl live) I am prompted to sign to to vcast for $10/month or $3/day. It was my understanding these services were free this season for 4G devices. Did I misunderstand or is…

TuneWiki issues?
Anyone else having problems with TuneWiki? Almost every time I open it, it makes me force close it. When I do get it to stay up for a couple minutes, it freezes and I've tried waiting, but eventually have to force close again. It seems to not be just tunewiki, as it also happens a lot with both slacker and pandora, though…
Facebook for HTC sense sync error
For the past month the Facebook for HTC sense sync has been telling me "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." But it has not fixed itself and will not sync with any of my contacts. I've tried removing it and adding it back on and it still will not work. Is there anyway to fix this?

Freezing while trying to dial
Does anyone else have the problem where the phone will randomly choose not to dial either from favorites or directly from a contact or even the dial pad?

Battery heating
I have the original battery that came with the Thunderbolt. I noticed if I'm using mobile web for maybe over 20 minutes or so, I can feel the battery heating up.

Losing Data Connection Since GB Update
I haven't seen many posts about this, but I've been having a lot more trouble with my data connection than I did before the update. It doesn't just drop from 4G to 3G, or 1x, it just goes away. I can do the usual tricks, turn Mobile connection off and on, go to Airplane mode and usually get it to restart, but sometimes the…
