Problems with Friday the 13th update.
First of all, it's rather an odd date for Verizon to update the Thunderbolt firmware, don't you think? Secondly, I have had nothing but bugs since I did the update and am a bit perturbed by the fact that Verizon has released this. It appears to me they released it only for their benefit and not the users. They now added a…

Thunderbolt vs Incredible 2
Hi everyone! I just bought the Thunderbolt last night. I was leaning towards teh Incredible 2 because I heard so much bad press about the TB battery life. The sales person convinced me to go with the TB since she had one and loved. Now I see all the posts and worried I made the wrong decission. Any thoughts between the 2…

VZ MOBILE DRIVERS
I have the HTC Thunderbolt and when I am prompted to install the VZ Mobile Drivers my computer freezes or the install fails because drive ADB can not be found. I am running Windows 7 32 bit. If I want to us Verizon Backup Assistant I need these drivers installed. Does anyone have a fix for this problem.,.

Use My Verizon Mobile to access your account information but not on the Thunderbolt???!!!
Why wouldn't Verizon support their own site with the Thunderbolt. Very odd indeed.

Rebooting Problem - Tweet @VZWSupport and let them know!

I suggest you guys call Verizon, or simply hit them up on twitter. The old saying goes 'the squeaky wheel gets the grease'.. WELL IT'S TIME TO GET SQUEAKY! @VZWSupport I just…

Free 4G til May 15th scares me....
Okay I get my new upgrade on April 19th (wanting to get the Tbolt). However, I know we get free 4G til May 15th, however, the price for the 4G hotspot after 5/15 makes me reconsider the Tbolt. I've done some research on this phone and knowing that it has some complaints (which honestly all phones do), but not knowing how…

Thunderbolt and Ford Sync
Seen several posts on the inability of the Thunderbolt to work reliably with Ford Sync. Specifically, dropped/unreliable Bluetooth connections and problems uploading the phone book. I have a 2010 Focus - anyone found problems similar to what I briefly described? Or does it work?

Text message ALERTS

Recently upgaraded to the HTC Thunderbolt and the biggest issue I am having is when the phone is on vibrate and then I get a text message. The phone vibrates quickly and subtle.

No Sound Since Update
I don't know why I just noticed this, but since I installed the update, I have no sound on my TBolt. My phone doesn't ring and my reminders aren't working. When I go to settings to pick a sound for the phone or notifications, there is no sound there either where before, I would hear a sample of the ring tone. Anyone else…

Stuck with a pig as Cinderella enters the ball
NOW the Charge comes out. Two weeks too late for me to trade up to it. Verizon kept pushing it back, and I kept hoping it would come out in time for me to unload this battery addicted hog of a Thunderbolt and trade up. Don't get me wrong, the Thunderbolt is a good device - great in some areas. But, the Charge will do…

Hey Verizon I'm calling you out!
The Thunderbolt is flawed with more bugs than a sewer. You have your employees and HTCs emplyoees admitting there are many issues that are being addressed but the consumers have yet to see results. Don't post on here you don't know anything because if you are truely " working on it " someone has an idea where they are in…

Voided Warranty Already??
I opened my battery case this morning because I wanted to write down the serial number of my device and I noticed the tab on the side already said Void. I have only had my phone for six weeks and it NEVER has been in contact with water. There are only two things I can think of: 1) I was in a very very humid city recently,…

Back to having multiple copies of text message being sent
I've AGAIN started having multiple "copies" of the SINGLE text message being sent to the recipient ( ) This is not only annoying to the recipient but uses my allotted text messaging (250 in my case) 2 to 5 times faster than it should I think I "correct" it by: powering down, battery pull, SIM reseating, SD card reseating,…

Skype going to Microsoft
I just read this on Android central now I wonder if this will affect us getting Skype video on the Thunderbolt. I downloaded the leaked skypevideo.apk and it works great so I can only speculate that politics has to do with us not getting it through Verizon or the Androidmarket.…

Nothing but problems from the start...
From the start, I have had problems: 1. When I send emails, it lists them twice in my sent folders. 2. Download ringtones (assigned) that would work whenever they feel like it (random). 3.

After the restart, 75% of the apps' icons changed from their native icons to the green android icon. I have deleted them and replaced them with the correct…
