Amazed at how quickly things have progressed. - Thunderbolt General

I am amazed at how quickly things have progressed on the tbolt. Its been out for 2 weeks, and we have root/s-off, O/C kernals...custom roms...It reminds me of the OG droid days. Everyday i wake up, I see something i NEED to flash to the phone..lol. My GF thinks im nuts, but im def enjoying this phone more than I thought i would. Im so glad i didnt wait for the Bionic.

Me too! This is awesome

Agreed, I'm also waiting for a one click root as I'm not to familiar with abd and don't want to brick the phone. Love all the great work all you devs are doing!

This is the key reason I truly appreciate having an Android phone, the developers ROCK.

Thanks to all that take time and effort to provide all those good things.

Watching all the development is amazing. Still waiting for a super easy one click root method before I jump into rooting

Once you root, then you will love it even more. It's moving faster than I can many days.

If you follow the steps outlined in the root process by jcase, you almost can't go wrong.

New MT4G Dev

Well, first off, I am jellette/Heathen of the Einherjar Dev Team. You will find us mainly in the Samsung sections.
Link to just my releases: HERE
It looks like I will be most likely making the move to the MT4G today as my SGS Vibrant is suffering its second wasted usb port.
I don't have much non-touchwiz experience but I didn't have any TW experience when I started so I don't see it as too much of a problem.
I haven't had a chance to scan through the MT4G forum yet to see the state of development but I would imagine you already have some Kick A$$ devs over here. I will spend the next few days familiarizing myself with the phone, its rooting methods, types of roms and mods available, etc. Then I will dig in.
If there are dev specific requests, please post them here.
I will begin with porting our already available roms and mods: HERE
I'm not, and couldn't even if I wanted to, leaving EDT - we will just be expanding our development to HTC devices.
I suppose that's about it for now!
Welcome to MT4G, I'm sure we will all be eagerly awaiting your work. Good luck with the transition.
So happy to hear we have another DEV.
Welcome and good luck.

Welcome aboard it's always nice to have new devs, especially ones with experience.
Glad your here missed your work from the vibrant days. Your roms always kicked butt and were revolutionary in their design. Can't wait to try one of your mt4g roms

Some ideas for rom ports

^Android Revolution, seems to be very popular probably very good

^Virtuous fusion unity, based on the official rom from htc pyramid
Maybe you could try a galaxy rom port, since sense runs on sammy phones.

Just getting started. UPS just delivered it, had already ordered it on Saturday. Now, it looks like there isn't a one click rooting method... So I will start looking at the guides to get root so I can get started.

Gfree is safe, it only bricks myTouch 4G's that have the bad eMMC chip. But even that is still all a speculation.

Htc evo 4g temp root for OTA Gingerbread Achieved !!!!!

Well Well now who's the little blood sucker's now? I posted a few questions about two days ago and was bashed buy a bunch of little 13yr old and even seniors member's on here. I was sat back and got a huge kick out of it. Anyways as always I work alone away from most of the FREAKS on here. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!!
Anyways after many hours working trying to get temp root on the new Gingerbread 2.3.3 OTA Update! I was successful in creating a working Temp Root!
This was done with the help of a very good friend that wishes to remain anonymous. I also seen many people are giving away a reward for the person who figures a way to gain root on the device. My response to that is keep your damn money I don't want it and my friend don't either. So if you all are thinking this is a way to retain the award your WRONG you little maggot!
We don't want anyone's money let alone your's. The temp root works and is very easy to achieve! I will be posting the guide in about 35-45 mins for other's to achieve this temp root on the HTC EVO 4G!!!!
For them little pricks that sit on their asses and wait for a Root and don't even give to the xda community but will leech and whine about everything make me sick. I'm so tempting to not even post the guide and let you pitiful bastards suffer and burn in hell and be miserable while I enjoy my new Rooted Device. Then my friend said what about the ones that have spent countless hours for the love of the EVO. That's what changed my mind so what now?
It's 7:25 my time and I'm going to begin this simple guide for those who deserve this root. It should only take me 30-45 mins to explain how to gain Temp Root on your HTC EVO 4g with the New OTA Gingerbread Update with S-On........
Congrats if you got it. Look forward to reading everyone's BS in the new thread!
I still have my launch day evo so it wont really help me at the moment.
I hope you just edit this thread to the instructions or put on your flame suit again.
if you really did acheive temp root, mad props bro...

Thank you for the effort. Some might read this and feel that you are coming off as a jerk, but I am sure you are just very excited. I am sure that like me and the countless others that check in multiple times per day, seeing all the awesome regularly updated ROMs, all you want to do is get the most out of your Evo. Congrats to you and thank you for sharing.
There will always be haters and nay-sayers no matter what the issue. Shake em off! Great job on your success. I am in need of this so I will be following this thread very closely. My rooted Evo had to be replaced and this new one has 2.3 on it sucks being unrooted ugh. Great job again.

I couldn't agree more. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain to do, but there are good instructions and a lot of people monitoring the discussions about it closely. Not only will you feel a lot more comfortable with this sort of thing by the time you're done, but if things go wahoonie shaped, there are a lot of people reading those threads who can help.

I'd hate to see you go. You are quite literally insane ( and I mean this in the most positive way possible) . I thought I put in some hours on stuff like this, but you run like a goddamn well oiled machine tirelessly. Wonder how many know you develop for other devices past the MT4GS as well... making your achievements that much more noteworthy.
I like how quick you are to help other developers, and i've enjoyed collaborating with you in the past and am looking forward to opportunities to do so in the future.

The ROMs from Undead have been completely awesome. Apps run smoothly, memory is efficient, and the battery life is superb. I'm quite sad to see that he was banned due to actions from the past, and I'm slightly upset that there lacks a means for users to attempt an appeal on his behalf.

That Awesome Force Close Is Back!

Well, I finally did it - back to stock. Just had too many issues with the roms, although they were super fun.
I thought, "Well the stock Froyo didn't have any issues from what I remember..."
Except all the force closes. It's amazing. I remember now how bad it was.
And yes, I'm rooted.
What can I do to fix these? These random force closes are brutal. Other people must be dealing with this.
Thanks!
Unroot, and just run. It sucks, im forced on it until i trade mine in. Trust me, it gets soo laggy makes the phone look like its a piece of junk. Im trying to get out of this brutal life to go to some *ahem* delicious snack builds.

First of all, THANKS for the reply.
I'm wondering if this is a Titanium Backup issue. I get a TON of single vibrate than three-vibrate signals followed by a mobile manager close (or other force close). I always use TB to reinstall my apps after a rom flash. I only do app reinstall (not app + data)
But the one-vibrate followed by three-vibrate, that happens all the time.
Just like the first responder said, the lag is INSANE even on stock froyo and the force closes are frustrating.
Should I re-go back to stock and just never use TB and install all apps manually? Or is there a way to figure this out? Because if so, I can shoot back up to a nice ICS build.
THANK you!!!
I use TB regularly... best $$ for an app I spent...if your just gonna settle for stock why not go with qkster one clicker... to stock ?
I backup and restore regularly no prob...

Please don't assume anything. As someone who had a computer repair business, I can attest to the fact that sometimes hardware just doesn't play nice no matter what you do. Or are you one of those people that think hardware can never be at fault?
My phone had the same issues with any rom I tried. And no, I wasn't doing anything wrong. I tried installing from rooted stock, did all the wipes and formatting, but every time it eventually became glitchy. So far, stock works fine for me, so I'm sticking with it. There's obviously something about my hardware that doesn't agree with the updated kernel/software.
Samsung made millions of these phones. Do really believe that every single one will work perfectly with software that wasn't intended for it in the first place?
Short answer, no. Everyone was just trying to help. We see a ton of these threads saying there is a problem only to find out someone made a mistake or skipped a step.

Hi guys - no, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to be running GB or ICS without the force close issues.
Maybe my second post got lost among the, ahem, spirited debate but I would love some assistance.
I'm 99.9% sure I reflashed back to stock correctly. Then all I did was a recovery with TB (app only, no data). I've read elsewhere this could be the culprit.
Any ideas? This force close and lag thing is driving me nuts. Plus it hinders any roms I flash for GB or ICS.
Thank you in advance!
