I'm running Damagecontrol 1.1 right now. I would like to go to 2.2 or 2.3 I can't seem to find a answer for which ROM I can use that will work with Metropcs. I've burned up the Search here! So if someone could point me in the right direction would be great.
Thanks,
Rick
I really don't think the carrier has anything to do with it but the brand of phone.. as long as u get a rom for the hero u should be fine..

Looks like there's two different hero versions in the forums. Cdma and non cdma. I don't know whether or not PCs is cdma or GSM but pick a rom for whichever service ur running.. hope this helps.

Metro PCS is a CDMA network. AFAIK, you'll only brick if you flash a gsm radio, not roms. I flashed a gsm rom once. It didn't work, just bootlooped, but I fixed it. Any of the roms in here should flash fine to your phone.

Can you unroot a CDMA Non-Sprint Hero back to a "generic" (non-sprint) pre 2.1 version?
When you say "non-Sprint" do you mean us cellular? If so check the website

Yes, its a US cellular, CDMA, Non-Sprint. They don't have any update to 2.1 and since I rooted I am having more problems than fun.
So, I was wondering if there is a way to get back to factory with something as a "generic" CDMA Non-Sprint RUU, if such thing is possible.
If you made a nandroid backup before flashing your 1st rom then you should be able to back up thestock rom then just do a data wipe and u should be good to go but if not ill look around for you

Hi, I have a HTC HERO CDMA (2.1 Update) my carrier is Open Mobile. My question is , if I flash a custom rom , for example this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742407) my phone can still working with my carrier ?? if can't work, what can I do to add my carrier APN info to the rom ??
PD: I have the Open Mobile APN Info.
bump. I have the same question. Figured id bump an old thread then make a new one
My buddy has a Hero CDMA from Open Mobile (identical to the Sprint Hero) I wanted to know if i can use the same custom roms on this one
thanks
Yes, I have one on nTelos. It works perfectly fine. Depending on the ROM you may have have Sprint headers everywhere, but that's easily fixed.

+1. Search the Eris theme and apps forum for Carrier Change Name app to change the Sprint headers. Works wonderful.

My dad is on Cellular South and looking to get a new phone. They have a Milestone with a slide out keyboard and I was wondering if it is a good device. Is the Milestone Cellular South's version of the Droid I am guessing?
Sent from my FroYo'd Hero via XDA App
The milestone is a great, although aging, device.
It is the GSM version of the Droid...almost identical.
But for a non-poweruser, the age will not show at all.
If your dad has any problems with it, just come back here and we tell you had to fix it

I am pretty sure this Milestone Cellular South offers is a CDMA model with a slide out keyboard, just like the Droid... not a GSM phone. A buddy of mine has a Hero with Cellular South and his is CDMA.
Is there any custom roms for the CDMA tab, if so, where can I find them?
Im looking too. I can hear crickets over in the Sprint portion of the Galaxy Tab forums. Im rooted with nowhere to go.. lol.
I'll let you know of I come across anything.

Basicly there is one overclocked kernek and a few roms from the same guy. Look in the development section for cdma roms

I see several cdma roms but the all say vzw im assuming that means Verizon wireless. Will those work for Sprint cdma?
Thanks!!
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA Premium App
Nope. Only the ones that say sprint. Or a few that say verizon/sprint.

Ok Thanks for the info! I may have to return my GT and wait for the HTC Flyer.
I got the GT thinking as long as i have the hardware i can flash whatever. But we are all at the mercy of the DEVS. No development no flashing..

I called sprint and had them to cancel my contract! Plus $75 off! Now its becoming a fun toy! The 3g sucks on this tablet on sprint network, the tablet is laggy, and etc......But it's now the greats gadget ever for $130 "for now"
hey what method did you use to root your GTab, and what firmware are you running ?
flash my sprint tab
I have a sprint galaxy tab that is out of contract and w/o service.
is it possible to flash it with a verizon rom and then get data service from Verizon? Does 3D use the same frequencies?
Just brought back life to sprint gt. Awesome rom out icontact.check it out.im loving it

No, the hardware between sprint and vzw is different. You can flash your sprint tab to boost mobile (info in the dev section)
And as far as flashing VZW vs Sprint roms, 90% of the time, the VZW roms work just fine on a sprint tab, as long as you aren't needing 3g. So if you're using the Tab wifi only, don't let the VZW bit scare you away from running a rom (CM7 etc say VZW only but still work fantastically on my Sprint tab.)
Yea the contact rom is great for sprint tab. Overclock and undervolt kernel to use with it.

I am using my Sprint GT as Wifi only permanently. (I have phone service with Pageplus).
I am currently running the 1n1tia|C0ntact_V_1_6 ROM and its great.
Can I flash ROMs that are built for GSM GT's?
I won't ever need 3G service for this tab. Wifi only
Dont think that would work buddy.I hope more Roms come out like honeyccomb or icecream sandwich type so I can download the apps I actually want

ICS should be coming to the cdma tabs. If you notice in the dev forum the GSM tabs got all the work on them and our tabs got left behind.

I have a cdma htc hero i tried to flash a radio dont remember witch one but now it wont turn on or charge is there anything i can do to get it to turn back on
If you flashed a GSM radio, then no. You are the proud owner of a Hero shaped paperweight. Find a link to the radio thread. It may make it easier to see if we can fix it.
