A new Rom release... A welcome surprise, to be sure. Will try, thanks for sharing/posting.

There's not many of us left on the bolt haha.
I went from old Evo 4G to Evo 3D myself. My wife kept complaining about her stock rom on the T-bolt. This phone has a lot of potential so I thought I'd start development here too :)

So... I've flashed and been running the Rom for a bit now. Most excellent Rom! I removed a few apps I don't use, gmail, google books, VZW backup, and city ID, and all is well. I'm curious, what is the the VZW_Remote_Tool.apk in the system folder used for? I'll see how battery life is, but so far, great work, well worth a try for anyone on the fence.

Walking counter does force close, and adventure training as well, likely due to walking counter. I was unable to get a GPS lock, even after trying GPS assistance data. As I don't see the facebook for HTC sense app, the exclusion of it from friendstream isn't a bug. It's also unlikely that a Verizon user can duplicate or remedy the unknown SIM issue...

I found out what this app update VZW_Remote_Tool.apk is. It aids customer service reps to tap into your phone via remote to repair any issues. "I don't think I would like that"... I may remove it on next update but will leave that up to everyone :) If you like, just uninstall it with ES File Explorer.

Here is the link below that describes more about this app:

Great information, thank you. I'll cut that one out too. I had just never seen that one before, likely because I always ran custom roms, and it was removed by the devs of them. I look forward to any update(s) to this. The theming and overall fluidity of the Rom is very nice. Hopefully, you'll be able to figure GPS, I didn't look through the files for it at any great length, but was able to obtain GPS locks without issue on nandroids of two other roms, and had a solid data connection throughout.

Getting "Service Unavailable" when accessing the download site. Hopefully that's fixed soon. Would love to give this ROM a test drive!
