Default Re: Verizon 3G verse 4G - Speed Test

The key to the Thunderbolt with the stock battery is bump charging. I do need to pick up an additional battery especially since VZW is letting TB users pick them up at half price.
I have the Thunderbolt and I absolutely hate it. It is way too buggy for me. Half my phone calls go straight to voicemail without the phone ever ringing and apps are constantly crashing. If connected to Wi-Fi for too long it just drops the connection even though the status bar shows it is in fact getting signal not to mention every now and than it loses all data connection which can be quickly resolved by popping it in and out of airplane mode. At first I thought I received a lemon but these issues seem to be pretty common on the Driod forums. I am hoping with the next update they work the bugs out instead of just abandoning the device as newer and better devices come to market for 4G. Fingers crossed as I am stuck with this thing for a while.
I also came from Blackberry and bugs included I still would choose this over another berry device any day.

That does suck - sorry to hear it. So far I've had zero problems. I did have one reboot which may have been because I installed 4 programs off the Market place pretty much at the same time. But they installed correctly. I have a friend who has had his Thunderbolt for months now (first week they came out) that I talked to before getting mine and he reported on the average of at least one reboot and up to three boots a week. Other than that he has no problems. So who knows.
