Cloning...Baaad JuJu!
You might be able to flash it but will your provider add it!?
Hello

Technically...Yes. But it really depends on if mts says they will add it!

Hi
You can use it with some networks (Not CMDA) and you´ll loose 3G pretty sure (Unless htc develops an american version)
However I´m using my Uni in Mexico since 2005 and works well on my carrier (www.telcel.com) and I can´t connect to 3G, but personally not care as long as I have WIFI or WIMAX wich I do.
Good day,

Thank you for your answer...i know people with a htc tytn II (european version) and they are using at&t but the 3g doesnt work...I'm sure at&t and t-mobile will work but not verizon am I right? Thanks!
For usa: 1900/2100=3g - 1800/1900=no 3g

Yes sir, you are right. Verizon, Sprint and others use CDMA technology, wich is different from AT&T, T-Mobile, etc. that use GSM. If you don't know how to tell the diff, it's pretty simple....SIM card=GSM, NON SIM card=CDMA.
Also the US network uses UMTS/HSDPA (850/900/1900/2100 MHz), while the European network works on 850/900/1800/1900 MHz.
So, if you buy the touch pro2 you won't get 3G in USA, unless AT&T come out with......let's say something like "FUZE 2" or I read somewhere that the name was revealed already (but don't remember).
MY dad wants to get cricket and I love my diamond lol, so can I get a diamond pro and flash it to cricket and what about esn issues?
bump
bump, and what bout internet
c'mon someone has to know
128 views and no one knows nothing.....
maybe because spamming is frowned upon in all internet communities?
maybe you could help me a little bit. What is cricket?
I'm assuming its a service provider, if thats the case you need to sim unlock your diamond. I'm sure someone here can unlock it for you, for a fee.
It's cdma so it would have nothing to do with sim unlocking, and I had to keep posting because my topic kept falling so I was trying to bump it up
so im guessing cricket is a provider. I'm not too familiar with cdma phones, but if cricket isnt cdma based then you probably have no chance of using it on that network. One of the main ideas behind cdma is that your stuck on the network you bought the phone from.
I could be wrong but this is what i understand about cdma phones.
dude - u need to provide all details for people to understand...
if ur diamond is a CDMA, you might find less help on this forum... it's almost all GSM
anyhow - if Cricket uses CDMA, there's no chance u could flash it on a GSM phone or vice versa...
good luck!
oh sorry my diamond is cdma

The high views are because of the intriguingly useless thread title and the lack of answers are because nobody knows what you're talking about. If Cricket is a CDMA operator then say that so people don't have to guess it.
he i found what cricket is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricketlol
Okay here we go
Cricket=CDMA(No Contract/$40 Unlimited Minute/text/web/etc)
My Diamond/Touchpro= From Sprint (CDMA), May be bad esn not sure yet

LOL!
OP: it's been stated before by me and other users, its very hard to switch carriers while on a cdma device. they make cdma so you cant hop networks like gsm users do.
Hi all,
I while back I was playing with differnt OS builds on my HTC, eventually setteling on a 6.5 custom build, and have been very happy ever since.
However, I have now gone to the States on holiday and have found that the phone does not pick up a signal but through the it was quad band capable.
Is there anything I can do to get people to pick up a signal?
Cheers.

Oh, how rubbish is that. Is this the phone or the Networks fault? How would the network know that it is a Diamond 2 trying to connect, and if so why would they block this phone?
Is it area dependant (I'm in Florida at the mo) or is this across the US?
ATT is a GSM carrier as is T-Mobile. You should be able to connect to ATT and get 3G - even roaming. I would suggest you try removing your sim and then reinserting it. Also what radio are you running?
Are you using your sim from your own network? Do you have roaming enabled on your account? I know some carriers do not have roaming agreements and perhaps that is your problem. If so, you might get a pay-as-you-go sim?
Tried removing the SIM/re-instering, but made no differnce.
Roaming should be OK as I am on O2 and aggreed international roaming before I left. My partner is also on O2 although has a Sony phone, but connects to a carrier with no issues.
The ROM is Tom Topaz v2.06 WWE
Radio 3.46.26.18
Protocol version 61.30t.25.25U
Try switching out your sim with your friend's and see if it connects then. If it does it's your phone, if not, it's your network.
Otherwise I have no clue. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will chime in.
Good luck and post your findings. I'm rooting for ya!

Interstingly, the SIM is fine - both work in the Sony (T-mobile), both fail in the HTC.
Over the bods that know - can it be resolved.
what radio band are you set to ?
ATT in us works best on 850

Ah ha - bingo. As I'm not eacatly part of the jet set, many moons ago I set the Band to GSM (900+1800), which of course is fine for Uk + Europe, but not patricularly briliant for the US.
Setting this to Auto and the phone springs into life.
The things you forget, eh!
I want an HD7 and wondered if any XDA-member could purchase one from o2 and i would pay them through PayPal and they could ship me the phone. I am in the US and on AT&T
Why don't you just go down to Walmart? They have them there already. Besides you'r on ATT and will get no 3g I thought with one from O2? I believe you need one from Telstra (Australian) network and your 3g will work.

I see the rebel sim cards are being developed for wp7 so perhaps 3g is still in the game if i get a tmobile version. I s being on edge versus 3g really that big of a difference anyway?
oh yeah, it's like swimming in tar lol (edge).
Isn't the phone Quad Band? Surely the device will work on all of the GSM networks?
I hope it's that or it's going to be quite a mission finding the right device to work on the right networks int the right countries.
in the u.s., the only 2 big gsm carriers (at$t, t-mo) operate on different bands. the rest of the world is ok lol, the telstra(sp) operates on at$t w/ 3g, any one else on t-mo gets edge.

Ah, ok
So would the T-Mobile HD7 work on standard GSM bands (900MHz and 1800MHz for South Africa)?
hey guys, I bought an HTC HD7 phone off of a guy that brought his fone over from the UK and I'm on a rogers carrier so I can't get a 3G connection due to the diff bands I guess, so if I bought an HD7 phone off of a guy on a Bell carrier and I unlocked it, would I be able to get that 3G connection? cuzz this edge crap is driving me nuts! I have a great data plan and I wanna take advantage of it by streaming my fav radio stations and stuff like that....or is there a way of getting 3g on my current phone? cuzz I entered all the APN settings and still no 3G!!
ok so I'm guessing with the non responses that this cant be done, as I thought since the last 2 years bell switched to GSM AND CDMA to accommadate the iPhone users of their customers...which is why I was thinking I can use a bell HTC HD7 phone on a rogers account. CAN ANYONE confirm or deny if its possible? aaanyone?
ok thx for nothing guys...
as long as the 3G bands match, 3G should work.
couldn't find the 3G frequency bands for either Rogers or Bell Mobility in my quick google search.
but i believe AT&T and Rogers use the same 3G bands, so an HTC HD7S should work if you can find one.
I have a hd7 on bell. If I can find a friend on Rogers I will try swapping the SIM cards and seeing if that works.
wonderful! thx guys appreciate it...

quick google/bing search shows both Bell and Rogers use 850/1900..so yes, long as it's unlocked it should work just dandy
great sound kool, thx for the info
I'm using an unlocked Bell HD7 on fido (rogers), and 3G works great!
ahh kool! thx for the info
