Who is still on their first?

Pretkomel · Jun 12, 2011

Never had a problem with my original TB. Knocking on wood.

I'm on my first bolt that was purchased about a week after launch. I' ve had a couple small issues but they seem to have settled out with a factory reset after the OTA.

Still on my first TB. I got it a week after release. Only problem is the battery life, which has now become expected on this phone. It's not that bad if I turn 4g off until I need it. I can go 2 days with it on 3g or about 5 hours on 4g.

launch day owner, only problem i have had is sometimes pandora doesn't start right and needs restarted, thats it

Wife and I are both still on our first Bolts. She got hers at launch, I got mine in April. Had a few reboots each the past month, that's about it. I have some connectivity issues but it is probably more about the signal at my house than the phone. Although, the stronger radio in MR2 will be much appreciated.

Had to give up on the Droid thing.... 4 Thunderbolts and they were all bad!! Moto Atrix was so slow and the Samsung Galaxy was well a Samsung phone. Yes I went back to the Apple world... It works... With the new crop of Android phones coming out who knows I may give a shot in the future... Good Luck to all...

Me too. I was at the door when the store opened on the launch date and loving this phone ever since. I had my fair share of problems but nothing I could not live with and after rooting and flashing bamf GingerREMIX 2.0-6, even those problems have gone away. The phone is not combination of the beauty and the beast, and close enough to perfect.

I just got my thunderbolt yesterday. I had an Xperia Play and went through 4 in 2 weeks for signal and call quality which was complete crap..

So far I love my TB. No complaints as of yet

Launch day phone here. non-rooted, extended battery. No problems.

Jinxed myself.

Replacement on the way. USB port is broken, when I plug in a cable the flash comes on, the battery doesn't charge and the phone displays an ! in the battery gauge meter on the top status bar. :mad:

And to top it all off, now I'm getting reboots. I don't know if it's the same root cause as other devices are experiencing, or if it's a hw problem related to the USB port.

Either way I'll have a new phone on Monday. blah.

MarkR · Jun 18, 2011

I bought 2 of them on launch day and have had no problems with them. I have the extended battery but my wife doesn't want to make her phone look fat, so she still stock.
Our biggest complaint is battery life.

Treknologist · Jun 18, 2011

I still have my launch day phone as well. I really did not have any problems until MR1, when random reboots started happening with varying frequency. Sometimes days with none, sometimes several on a day. I'm eagerly waiting for the GB update and the fix to the reboots.

vassago · Jun 18, 2011

Got mine last week and so far so good

McLabia · Jun 18, 2011

Well, I no longer have my first one. MDPA ended up sending me a brand new one. Complete with a new OEM battery and another 32 gig SD card. ^_^ Score!

jcnyc · Jun 18, 2011

I'm on my second but I would still consider it my first. My first one had a problem with the metal lining beneath the kickstand coming off so I sent it back telling the warranty center I was having reboot issues but my replacement has been all good since!

WhenForever · Jun 18, 2011

I've had mine since a few days after launch, everything has been good except for reboots but recently mine started to just randomly turn off

Has anyone else experienced this? Wondering if I should have it replaced or if its related to the reboot issue

PhillySteve · Jun 19, 2011

Had mine since day 1.. No reboot issues luckily.. Still tee'd off I can't pair it to my truck.. Other than that its golden

charger07 · Jun 19, 2011

Launch day phone. Have ignored recent update. Only issues are with gps. No reboots. Dont want any either. Waiting for GB.

solo65impala · Jun 19, 2011

Unfortunately number two is on it's way. Somehow I managed to blow the earpiece speaker. Until then using my OG Droid.

Jrocker23 · Jun 19, 2011

Still using my launch phone as well. No issues at all, working great..
