Root Am I The Only Moron Who Can't Root a Thunderbolt?

[lafaverp]

This is about the sixth time I have attempted to root my Thunderbolt and I am beginning to think that God doesn't want me to root my Thunderbolt. I am running Android 4.0 and trying to use the Thunderbolt Tool. (Revolutionary failed miserably) Everything proceeds just fine then on what seems to be the final reboot before my pent up dance of joy the program displays "Waiting for Recovery" and the phone shows a red triangle exclamation for all eternity (or something resembling it). Any help, although greatly appreciated, will most likely result in the confirmation of my previous assessment. PS. The log file ends with this:

unless the tool has been undated to include a downgrade option,it wont work.

your best course of action,IMO:
-unlock bootloader via htcdev
-downgrade to older build
-run revolutionary
-flash ics rom or restore ics backup

im on my way out the door,but i will try and get an htcdev/downgrade guide up today
