Anybody know if it would be a problem on verizons end that i am getting multiple duplicate text messages?
Just started today, done nothing different to my phone.
It's an ongoing issue that effects a few people, it's a network thing. My boss has this happen on his stock tb all the time. I'm yet to experience it though

Not a problem at all.
He called vzw to complain and they said there were aware of it. People he was sending messages to were sometimes getting 2 or 3 copies, #annoying.

Good thing i have unlimited otherwise I'd be pissed!
I too have been getting duplicates. However, 7/10 of the time, it has been coming from the same person on AT&T using an iPhone.

I usually get multiple texts from Sprint users... Very random though

I get duplicate texts from about five different people, all with android phones, all on Verizon. My Sprint friends tend to lose the texts most of the time ^_^
I just finished doing a satisfaction survey about my One S. It asks how you like it, what made you buy it and things you don't like about it. I made it pretty clear I wasn't satisfied with this phone the way it is now. The bloatware, the signal problems, the gps jumping all over the place and the wifi/4g bug after the newest update.
After I was done with the survey I qulified for a moderated forum, I must attend the forum for 3 days straight, twice a day for a total of 30-60 minutes. I will receive a $50 voucher once completed, the forum will be announced at a future date.
DO THE SURVEY, LET THEM KNOW WE DON'T WANT THE BLOATWARE AND THAT THE UPDATE SCREWED THE PHONE UP.
I got that survey also. And I let them know about all the bloat as well

Same here, and let loose with both guns about the bloatware, and how I feel about their capping data, but also installing apps that can't be disabled that use data.
At the end I was told I qualified for a follow up study I would be paid $50 to complete. Anyone else get that? I haven't been sent the info on the study yet, though.

Yeah, I got the $50 offer too, seems like the dissatisfied customers are getting the offer.
Where can I take the survey

Yeah. I got this offer too. Hopefully less bloatware.

You have to get a personal invite via email. I found mine sitting in my spam box yesterday. I complained about everything except I forgot about them removing free tethering. I too took up the invite for the $50 followup.
I got this too. Before even visiting xda. I answered it all and mentioned the bloatware and sensitive screen and battery size. (Not that I have battery issues but still) I also went for the $50 offer still waiting on the confirmation email.
Sent from my HTC one sex
Me too. Waiting for the other thing to start. The ota had my phone performing worse on quadrant. And yesterday I got that bug where the phone had no signal while on gps.
Still nothing about the followup. Anyone get their info yet? I want my $50
Now ask yourself, did I really just read that? Yes you did.

how did y'all get the offer for the survey?
In an email.

Anyone ever get the follow up after the forum participation for the $50? It's been over a month now.

I haven't. Sure was nice of them to get our hopes up. Of course, I haven't gotten my $50 rebate or the $100 for trading in my Shadow II yet either. I'm about ready to try the GS3 (maybe it will actually do some things properly) so add all my One S accessories to the list, and this has turned into a very expensive lesson (along the lines of: The HD2 must be the exception, cause HTC + Tmobile = Fail).
Nope. Me neither. I gave them a call and i was told if i don't receive by the end of the month(steadily approaching) to call back and they will get it situated. Other than that. No help. Seemed like they didn't even have access to any basic information.

I went with the gs3 after waiting these 2-3 months without s-off on the one S. No regrets. The gs3 is just a much better device with more dev support. I don't blame the device just as you said the Htc+Tmobile combo = fail

What contact information did you use to get in touch with them. I no longer have the original email. I don't even remember entering my street address anywhere for them to send me the money. I have bad memory so if we had to I don't remember.

1-888-525-5026 here is the number that is in the email. I'm pretty sure the first time you sign into the forum it asked for your address and other info.

Kinda figured this would happen. Now if HTC was a decent company they would still release their source...but we all know they wont.
Im not all expecting to see an official release but that site is about the most vague pile of crap ever. I cant help but doubt the validity of anything posted there.

Wow that read like the old I heard from my brother sisters cousin twice removed. If there was an email why not post it in the article?
So you needed an unknown site to tell you this? You couldn't take the hints over the months with delay after delay?
Hey I heard from a friend London bridge just fell down lol.

Yeah, that site is not reliable by any means...
Though I personally doubt to see an official ICS launch for the Thunderbolt.

Someone doesn't know what the word "official" means. Hint: an official statement regarding the HTC Thunderbolt won't be written by a Jr. High School kid.

Isn't technobloom the site that told us all Amazon was going to sell the Thunderbolt for free starting at 3AM one day?
Anyway, the Galaxy Nexus is cheap as ever now, go for it, I mean the Nexus one just got a 4.2 custom ROM, imagine how far along the GalNex will get!

I never really expected this to happen after observing all the work from the devs on it. ICS has always ran kinda wishy washy for me. I mean it works and all, but there are definitely some performance issues and bugs no matter which rom you use. Verizon nor HTC intends to release a shoddy product. It either has to work 100% or not at all. If ICS cant run as well as GB did, then it aint gonna happen.
I wish I had a dollar for all the false rumors that have been posted about ICS, I'd buy Verizon and have enough left over to keep me in booze and hookers for the rest of my life!
I think this is one more dollar in my stash....

If that were the case though, the thunderbolt would've ran well from launch day, which anyone who had one since then will say that it didn't. Originally the battery life was horrendous and had to be fixed by an OTA.

NO ICS
just called HTC ,,, and they told me , that we are not getting ics,,, htc thunderbolt is discontinued,,,, :crying:
We could call and email different reps at HTC and we would get a slew of different responses from them all. Stuff like this no one will know the correct answer as tech support as we all know is the last to know.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using Tapatalk 2
So let's see if I understand this... the OFFICIAL WORD from Verizon AND from HTC is that the Thunderbolt will or will not get ICS and will get it within the next two days or later than that or never.
Does that about cover it? <G>
Honestly, I don't see what all the flap is about? ICS doesn't offer anything I need or want other than (I HOPE!) a better kernel for the Devs to work with.
Meanwhile, NuSense works for me and the BAMF leak works for me if I want ICS and, if I want Gingerbread, Infected ROM works for me and Thunderstick BB works for me along with a bunch of other ROMs I've tried.
Was at Verizon today, Reps informed me there will be no ICS for our phones...Cant say I'm surprised...my upgrade is in January, not going to worry about it .. Can't believe they state we would get the upgrade, then renege ..
If Apple can upgrade their older model Iphones for several years , why can' t our Android phones do the same.. and no I'm not switching..

Ain't it funny... Nobody gives a crap if they do it or not. Its kinder late in the game for them to pull this crap. Anyone who needed their ruus already got em and besides with the exception of tbolt users waiting to upgrade and get the hell away from anything tbolt..
I say take all your ruus HateTC we do not need your crap!!!!

Many base their ROMs off of theirs.
Either way, it won't stop us from developing our own.
I just thought this was a stupid move by HTC.

So they took their ball and went home big deal. Guess they got tired of amateur developers showing them how their crap should work. Maybe they should wake up and hire some of these devs so their product gets better and they have a happy client base.
Why they so worried about their ruu in the first place? After all they made their money on the selling of the phone. Not like they sell updates to customers. I am shocked apple doesn't do this LOL.
Yeah we will still get our roms from our wonderful devs.

Not sure if this thread is necessary but Verizon moved the launch date a whole week earlier to May 23. That means a whole week less to wait for bootloader unlocking

Yea just googled, multiple websites confirm it. No surprise considering AT&T rushed their launch. Hopefully this means Dan will release before the end of may cause as it stood before, we weren't gonna see the unlocked bootloader till at least a couple days into June
I hope this means faster bootloader unlock
