just recived this phone a few days ago(coming from a vogue), and i am already disappointed with the amount of ram this thing is using. everything i found in this forum seems to be for the gsm model only(unless radios and roms can be used on either model).
You need to ask this in the CDMA forum.
Anyhow, i think At0m started a thread for ROM development.
ok, thanks

Damn, wrong forum. This should have gone in the general discussion forum. I'm really not sure why it's here, I must have been looking at two pages. Sorry.
A buddy has offered to sell me his TP2. He's on T-mobile, I'm on ATT. If he gets the unlock code, can I just pop in my ATT sim and start using it or do I need to do something else?
Also, once I get to know the phone I'll probably want to install one of the custom ROMs; are there problems with doing this?
Thanks in advance. Yes, I searched the forums. I have been active on the ATT TP forum, so I'm going to be new here! Hope this forum is as friendly as that one is!

yes put your sim card in and it will work, and no there is not any problems with flashing custom roms you just have to read the guides before you do anything, mostly if its your first time, first you have to HardSPL the fone if not done already, there is a guide for that, and then you should task29 the fone then flash xD also you can flash a radio, look through these forums and you will fine how to complete these, good luck!
Thank You!
Thank you! That's what I wanted to hear! I'm getting the phone tomorrow, so I look forward to checking this forum out more thoroughly!
The only other thing you may want to take note of is that you will not be able to access AT&T's 3G network on the T-Mobile Touch Pro2. The hardware radio does not support their 3G network. EDGE and GPRS will work fine, however.
My wife decided that she wanted a Galaxy Tab and eventually found one at a decent price. It showed up today and is in great condition and appears to be running a stock ROM. I have a few questions about it and I figured I could get some help here.
It is a CDMA Tab that was subsidized by U.S. Cellular. We don't have that provider locally and I was wondering if it would be compatible with another carrier. My wife doesn't care if it isn't though, she only wanted it for WiFi around the house.
Also, is there any major differences with the U.S. Cellular version that I should know about going in before I drop a ROM on it? And for that matter can anyone recommend a ROM? Thanks in advance for the help.
More info (If you need it):
Hardware Version: SCH-I800.0.3
Baseband: S:I800.0.3.DJ29
Mate, try the developement section... The roms are there, incuding the gingerbread update, you should find all the info you need there but please read the threads...
Read, read and if you can't find any info, read some more then ask questions...
You'll get a lot more help if you show you have read up a bit... Check out the overcome thread for his guide to flashing, there's also some others around, generally for gingerbread, that are helpful...
Cheers...
What's the difference between the different forums for the HTC One? The T-Mobile Forum, the At&t forum, etc.
Shouldn't all the roms/kernels in this forum (HTC One) work for both T-Mobile or At&t? Or is this forum only for international variants of the phone?
They do work for all the gsm variants. Theres been talk about merging the international, tmob & att forums into one. Just dont use any sprint mods because its cdma and not gsm.

I hope they do that soon. I like helping out, but I get a little tired of answering the same questions (multiple times, because search is hard for some folks apparently) in both forums...
Thank you for your answer guys, hopefully they do too because it seems like a pain for developers to have to maintain each individual topic in different forums and have to duplicate everything over to the other
Please excuse my ignorance, but what is that section all about?
I see Venom Rom and custom kernels. I see different sections for different carriers already, so what is that one for?
Is that section for ALL carriers?
Pretty much what it says. It's a general forum, mostly for the international version and there's some scattered in there for U.S. carriers but pretty much just gsm variants. There are some mods said to work on all variants. Some are clearly broken down and labeled in the OP, but some you gotta search and read every post to see if anyone asked if it'll work on Sprint (or other) and see if there's an answer. I keep going thru it myself getting itchy to flash something. I came from the evo LTE and got into this whole root thing 8 months after that phones release so there was already plenty of development going on. This is my fist phone seeing it from the beginning, and with a model on every carrier. The evo was specific to Sprint so all development was just for that phone, made it much simpler lol.

Ok so I have derived that my phone is what I believe to be the Hanna variant through searching on Google . But I am unclear as to what to use for root and recovery here. Because all Hanna version list as cricket metro PCs or TMobile variants and I have boost Mobile variant XT1924-8. I can figure out the rest if someone will just ask my stupid question for me.
im on james models, a tmobile variant and a metro variant (same 1921-) but i flash same roms to both (both are gsm though.)
that being said; I have flashed cdma variant (vzw/sprint/BOOST) and i had no signal even after doing a network reset.
so I do not THINK the cdma vs gsm roms can cross flash. I may be wrong, just stating what I've experienced when I tried it.

CDMA and gsm are completely different networks. It's like trying to connect Xfinity cable through a dish Network satellite dish.
For future reference.
How vol down and power until you land in the bootloader and there you'll find your variant if you're unsure..
thanks for reviving a 3month old dead thread to ACTHACTULLY it up... You are an honor and a gentleman, thank you for explaining the difference between the two technologies in clear in concise terms.... (Oh wait you really didn't add any new information or explain anything, all you did is revive a 3month almost 4 thread to reiterate the obviously inferred information that the radios are different, hence the reasons the cross flash does not work. BUT OBVIOUSLY someone as cultural, artistic and intelligent as yourself would have caught that already right? RIGHT...
He obviously knew his variant was 1924, so thanks for mansplaining how to get into bootloader... As if any one asked..
For future reference, 1924 is Hannah based and 1921 are James.... Make sure variant is right for your antenna and sim.

First of all, the dude said he thinks he has his varient from trying to figure it out on Google.
The bootloader literally tells you exactly which device you have.
No need for Google lol
And the reason I answered an old thread (and made it clear that I see it's old) is because there are a million unanswered questions on here!
Seriously..... ?
