HTC ThunderBolt is one of the mobile phones that should bring the 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) goodness and Google's Android mobile operating system to Verizon Wireless' customers in the coming weeks.

Following a long series of rumors on this device, which was expected initially to arrive on the market as the DROID Incredible HD, the official announcement on its arrival has finally emerged earlier this week, and phone's ROM didn't take long to make an appearance either.

The info on the availability of the HTC ThunderBolt RUU (ROM Update Utility) emerged on the XDA-Developers forum here.

Those who are interested in learning more on what was packed inside the software should find it available for download on the said thread as RUU_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.03.605.10_Radio_1.02.00.01 03_2r_NV_8k_1.37_9k_1.52_release_165253_signed.exe

For those who might not know, as we should note that the ROM is not available for installation on a mobile phone, but it does offer those familiar with this kind of software the possibility to learn a little more on what was packed with the handset that would feature it.

Pieces of info on settings, apps, and the like are available there, and some of these might also be posted to other devices, so as to make them more appealing than they are.

At the same time, we should note that the guys over at briefmobile posted on their website links to the HTC ThunderBolt (aka Mecha) system dump, and to the PG05IMG.zip file.

Little is known at the moment on what info these files would provide on the new smartphone that would soon feature 4G connectivity on Verizon Wireless' airwaves, but more should emerge in the near future.

Of course, the HTC ThunderBolt is not the only LTE-capable Android device announced officially for Verizon, but, since it leaked many months before the official announcement, it can be considered as the most popular of them all at the moment.
