Owned one for a bit over a month now, rooted it this weekend.
Looking for rom suggestions...
Am very happy with the community tethering app over the supplied one, the OEM tether seems to drop the network and turn on & off intermittently, using andriod wifi tether 3.0 for a day now, and it's trouble free thus far.
Was reading today how the LTE implementation is a kludge in the ThundBolt, and what they did was to put in a wireless hot spot chip in addition to the CDMA chip to get the LTE and voice on the same device.
Pros for me:
Speed, dear god this thing is blistering fast, we're talking 20+MPS up. I tether exclusively for internet at home, so it's a major plus.
Cons:
Battery life is similar to the EVO in factory form. You can almost watch the battery meter drain. I added the OEM extended battery so the thing is functional for a whole day.
