A new version of the HTC Thunderbolt RUU has appeared online, which appears to be that of an upcoming system update for the handset. The actual file has been stripped of much of its identifying information to keep the source of the leak cryptic, but you can find an upgraded radio firmware version (1.16.00.402) and fixes abound. Among those fixes are better handling of 4G LTE to 3G transitions, one of the major complaints some have had against the Thunderbolt. Also covered are tweaks for GPS location services, audio recording, video playback, and the SQLite API.
If you want to install the new software, it is possible if know how to handle a rooted Thunderbolt. Otherwise your best bet may be to wait. All signs point to this one going official and heading down to the Thunderbolt soon enough. Of course, in the world of Android updates nothing can ever be soon enough.
