Can't post in the dev boards so I'm putting this here for the CM7 folks....
So I had been using das bamf stripped since getting my thunderbolt and had a few minor issues with it but really liked it overall. Eventually decided to try the MR2 radio with the new full sense 3.0 but it didn't play nice in my car dock.
Decided to try CM7 again and boy am I glad I did. Everything seems to be running great (well, apart from 4G but I can live without it for a bit).
Its like I have my original Droid back, only with a bigger screen and better speed!! I don't know why I didn't take a chance on it earlier!
Thanks to the CM7 team for giving me back the GUI I love!! Nice to have all the vanilla apps back that I'm so comfortable with!!

Have you tried the newest rom released a few hours ago or hour ago? I have both an incredible and tbolt and switch from one to the other every few weeks. I'm currently on the incredible. Thanks tbolt CM7 team for your hard work.

Oh man, 4G sweetness this morning using this build! No issues so far!! I'm off to donate!
I installed the latest CM7 this AM. It has completely resolved the 3G/4G/WiFi problem.
IMHO my Thunderbolt with this ROM and Verizon 4G IS THE BEST SMARTPHONE ON EARTH RIGHT NOW.
I'm gonna chime in and say I've been running CM7 on my t-bolt since the pre-alpha releases and have been happy as a clam. No 4G here, so that didn't bother me. Some little bugs here and there but this is a solid AOSP rom. I just can't get used to Sense, and after coming from an Evo 4G to the Thunderbolt, was a little disappointed that CM7 was so immature... but once I tried it, I realized that it worked great and now I'm happily back in CyanogenMod land and won't look back.
good to know, so whats left for a full release?
I'm taking the plunge as we speak

You won't be disappointed! RC1.2 flies and the 3G/4G toggle are awesome to have! This is for sure my new ROM of choice!
I'm running RC1.2 with MR2.5 and Imoseyon's leanKernel. Everything runs like a champ! Extreme undervolt, 1.41GHz overclock, and InteractiveX governor. 4G and GPS work great without any further tweaks. I'm loving it!
Spoke too soon. I saw 4G on my way into work this morning, but haven't been able to get it since then...
Maybe I'll try the MR2.5 radio? I'm on MR2 now and it's been good with das BAMF stripped...
I totally agree, this latest release is awesome! I'm having no qualms and feeling as comfortable as I did with CM on my OG Droid.
I went to the 2.5 radio last night and got 4G on my way in this morning. Handoff seemed better, but I decided to go back to the original (non-leaked) MR1 radio so I'm doing that now.
Network Location Services thought I was in Morocco. I was wondering why it was only 75 degrees suddenly instead of the 95 or so it was here yesterday.
I see this is a common issue with the 7/6 build. Now that I can post in the Cyanogenmod thread, I'm going to take the rest there.
Thanks again, CM7 team for giving us a great alternative for great hardware!!

Both are awesome you can't go wrong

I have used both RCMix for over a month and have had VU for almost a month. I liked RCMix, but in my honest opinion VU has it beat all to Hell in terms of stability, speed and overall performance. I would not go back to using RCMix.
Havent tried rcmix3d but I can tell you that unity works amazkng and I have been using it for around two months and don't expect to switch soon. It's so stable that I feel like my inspire came with sense 3.0

Took the words right out of my mouth. I can't say one is better than the other as I haven't tried rcmix3d either, but it's hard to imagine anything running better than VU
I installed VU yesterday, and while it's only been a day, I'm loving it.
However, VU is currently on hold and development may not ever start again. If you go to their website there's a blog about how people have been stealing their work and they're being disrespected, and they're sick of it, understandably. So while VU may be the best choice today, it seems like that could change.
Having said that, just try'em both!

Or just compile a cm7 build. That's what I am running at the moment and it screams. GtG has a beatiful GB rom also, a bit more stable than cyanogen, only thing it lacks is HDMI out.
You wont be disappointed, the infuse is a beast, both display wise and performance. Easily the best and most fun phone I ever had. We have some awesome development too, very thorough, and deliver solid results, no monkey business going on in our development community.

Just seen there's a new beta test build of cm7 on jt1134's twitter. Were getting ever closer to a more functional cm7 on our Charge's.
Isn't that one of the ROMs that doesn't support HDMI ???

I've only used cm7 on the Fascinate which sadly doesn't have HDMI, so couldnt tell ya.
so what's the issue with the test that he released?

Correct. I was running cm7 last night. Radio and video recording are the 2 things needing work. We should have at least 3g radio soon. 4g may take a lot longer.

HDMI isn't working in the preview. Playing back videos I recorded is a bit choppy (might be just me). I didn't wait to see if GPS would work.
Not something you want to use daily yet, but it's getting there.
I came from the Fascinate and I didn't really miss cm7/MIUI/aosp until I put MIUI on my Droid X yesterday. I hope the wait isn't very long.

You are absolutely right. I flashed MIUI on my friends fascinate today, and its a complete night and day difference.
are you saying MIUI is better or worse than cynogenmod? Do we have MIUI for charge?
From what I've heard MIUI is better but apparently the devs are in China(where they don't have LTE) so it's impossible(well, not technically but...) for them to develop MIUI for the Charge.
I liked cm7 on my fassy but MIUI was miles ahead as far as customization goes IMHO. I'm currently trying to get another fascinate or wait for the Droid Prime, fingers crossed.

yeah atrixs devs have been mia...how about the performance of the inspire on a rom? (cm7/miui)?
Inspire custom roms are amazing. Great battery life on almost all roms I had tried and performance as well. Personally, miui, android revolution, and coredroid are my top 3 best choice. I am currently on Android revolution. Switching back and forth at times to feel the greatness from those three roms.

The Inspire is definitely a great device. Second best on the market imo (behind the GS2, which I also use). I've owned the Inspire longer than any other device I've ever owned. You'll be good with the Inspire for a while. I found development support to be awesome. I can't even part ways with my Inspire, even though it's not my main device right now. I'm still using it as I would a tablet (wifi browsing, games, updating Google Calendar events, etc.).
As P00t said, Inspire and DesireHD roms are amazing. My top three would be Android Revolution, CoreDroid and CM7, though I haven't tried MIUI because I used to have an iPhone and that is what the screenshots reminded me of. Mike and his ARHD team do an amazing job of answering questions or pointing you in the right direction. Sergio and his CoreDroid team has an amazing website and layout to answer any questions. Sigurd_LU has an amazing theme that works flawlessly with ARHD and should work on other Sense roms.

I AM an Atrix convert and i have to say i don't think i will be replacing/upgrading my Inspire for quite a while. The Atrix just ended up being to darn small and had a cheap feeling because of the plastic that was used. The dual core support is more non existent than it should be as well.
The roms for the Inspire are great - for me i love MIUI (a little slow at times), Virtuous Unity 2.39 (smooth and includes Sense), and Cyanogenmod 7 ( smooth and you have a TON of customizations).
Not to mention the Inspire forum has the best contributors i have had the privilege to receive advice from.
In short, go with the Inspire you will be happy that you did.
+1 on Get the Inspire!
The phone itself is great (physically) and with all the roms and apps, you can't go wrong! For sense rom Rcmix Runny is just wow. I'm now running with Stardroid Ranger (based on CM7) - AOSP (my first) and loving it.
Inspire for sure! Top 3 for me are MIUI, Virtous Unity & Gingerbeast. Awesome device

My top 3 are Gingerbeast, Gingerbeast, and umm, Gingerbeast.
I am an atrix convert, and I don't regret letting it go at all. The atrix devs would make a rom and never update them and everything was just themed stock roms. IMO inspire is the place to be, sure it's not dual core but nothing is utilizing a dual core processor, besides the inspire is plenty fast with quadrant scores around 2500. Atrix qhd screen was so pixilated and the inspires screen is pretty vivid not to super amoled standards but still alot better than qhd. Every time you look in the inspire development section you find something new or updated. Inspire is the way to go. On paper it wouldn't seem like it but just from everyday use it blows the atrix out of the water.

I had an Atrix. "HD" screen sucked, camera sucked, it just sucked.
Inspire has amazing screen and camera! I'm usually using MIUI 75% of the time and CM7 the other 25%.
Returning the Atrix for this was VERY wise

It's possible. ICS was built around LTE from what I've read, so it should be easier to get the ril going for it rather than for GB, once the tbolt gets its ICS update that is.
If the tbolt doest get it officially, you can bet someone will cook it up.

They're projecting their desires onto others...
One could start a post titled "Official free HTC One X for Thunderbolt owners?" and you'd have a million hits in minutes.
There is no official CM7 for the Thunderbolt so there most likely won't be an Official CM9. That doesn't mean there won't be a CM9 based ROM or two for the Thunderbolt. ICS needs to be officially released first though.

I'm really leaning toward CM these guys really know what they're doing!!!
It would definitely be a ROM worth checking out. Until then at least we have team BAMF.

Try the Workshed v1.5 build.
I can confirm Thundershed v1.5 is great. Just be absolutely positively sure you flash Imoseyons lean Kernel v6.1.0 AOSP on it. Much better for overclocking and stability. Not to mention, and this is rather odd... I had kept stock TShed kernel for awhile, but decided eff it I want my imo lean kernel back! Wiped cache/dalvik, flashed 6.1.0 lean kernel, and waddya know I now get 4G 2-3 bars in my home where before on TShed kernel, 3G 1-2 bars. Odd huh? Definitely not placebo, I'm legit getting 10mbps down, 0.5mbps up in my room, on 4G LTE where I used to get 1.5mbps down, 0.5mbps up 3G.
Go figure.

i totally agree with everyone about thundershed. i honestly don't understand how anyone could dislike it. the only issue i ever had with thundershed was that shed's included kernel has rough bluetooth audio. shed is working on it, but until then, there's always the xoomdev and imoseyon aosp kernels to correct the bluetooth problem. also, thundershed is in my opinion the most developed aosp rom for the bolt thus far. great rom.
