I just got my replacement Tbolt and it's running .19 and i want to root it. BUT, i want to downgrade to .9 so i wanted to get my ducks in a row first. After i root my phone, would i have to re-root if i flash the .9 RUU?

You don't have to downgrade to root just use the tbolt tool

No no, i'm not asking that. I want to know if i'll lose root if i flash an RUU after i root. Or is there a way to downgrade before i root? Thanks.

Flashing an RUU won't remove the rev hboot

the tool
-Startup is cleaner

-Can now detect a phone in fastboot but has no
major functionality as of yet

browser (Fixes not found error IE is disabled)
-Opens BusyBox app by Stephen (Stericson)

downgrades user to older ones
-Waits for a full boot if the phone is in the boot
process

out the entire log

I have updated the file at the main download link. By the way, we have reached OVER 9000 DOWNLOADS!!!!!!!

You guys rock.

As soon as i can scrap up $35 (I'm $35 short ), I'll be moving on to the nexus 4, but the tbolt will definitely stay on my desk
If you'd like to help me out with that, I'd love you forever

when I try to run the program with all of the apps listed uninstalled it just says

updating

and flashes that

it cannot find the file specified

when I re-instal pdaNet if goes further but then cannot find the phone

My phone is my only internet source and the whole point of rooting it is to get wifi for my xbox,
Will rooting my phone give me this and do i have to have internet access other than my phone for your program to work?

yes I have the driver installed and yes the support_files folder is in the working folder and yes i have done this in a folder by itself. Also I tried this on two different computers with different operating systems (windows 7 and vista ultimate)

an interesting side note when I had pdanet installed and on and it got to the point of looking for the phone and i disconnected the phone and uninstalled pdanet both of my computers crashed (BSOD) and started back up just fine.

Yeah the program needs internet to work but PDAnet also stops ADB from working properly.

Is there any way you can have an outside source of internet?

Not at the moment.

I too am having issues with Windows 8 and Thunderbolt tool...

I tried all my usb ports, and none are connecting.

is there a step by step for this to get unlocked and update to ICS?

thanks

Updating...

Ok, I downloaded & extracted the file: trter10-Thunderbolt-Tool-63aa0d8
I've got my Tbolt set to stay awake & usb debugging, installed the htc driver, but when I run the ThunderboltTool it just says Updating... and sits.
I'm gonna give it another hour, but was there a fix for if it just sits longer than that? Is that normal?

Re: Updating...

First time poster.

I've been researching for the last couple of days and I think I either have a unique problem or I'm the first one to experience this. (I suspect the latter.)

A few weeks ago while viewing pictures in the gallery on my Thunderbolt the phone (for lack of a better word) glitched and went to the HTC Logo. I tried everything I could to get it working again but no luck. I ended up taking it back to the Verizon store. They fiddled with it for about an hour and then agreed that the phone was FUBARed. Fortunately I was still under warranty (for another 3 days) so I was able to send it in for a replacement.

My replacement Thunderbolt arrived in the mail 4 days ago. It's a refurbished phone.

Here's the crazy thing.

It was shipped with 4.0.3 ICS installed.

Now I'm in a bit of a predicament. How do I root it? All the tools that I've found don't work with 4.0.3. If I could figure out how to downgrade it to GB i'd be set. But I can't find any information on how to do that either.

I'd be content just to leave it IF the battery life wasn't so amazingly horrendous. On the Thunderbolt that broke I was able to unplug it in the morning before heading off to school (I teach) and when I came home after practice (I coach) I'd still have 30% battery life left. This new phone (which is using the same battery I pulled from the old one is going dead between 4th and 5th period.

I'd love for someone to point me in the right direction.

Thanks
