I have a Sprint touch pro 2, SIM unlocked by http://www.htc-unlocks.com/, to use on an AT&T USA carrier.
I don't know what kind of ROMs I can flash on it. Do I use a gsm ROM, a CDMA ROM, (I understand there is a difference, correct?)
It was a Sprint phone (CDMA), but I'm now using it on AT&T (gsm).
Could someone please list a few examples of ROMs I can flash on this phone?
thanks
CDMA ROMs, GSM won't work.
CDMA ROMs
Can you give me a link or 2 to some CDMA ROMs, I've looked and looked but can't find any!
thanks much!
go to ppcgeeks.com. that site mainly has cdma roms
Had a general question about the Sprint TP2. If unlocked, will it work on the 3G T-Mobile USA network??? According to PhoneScoop.com, it appears that the Sprint TP2 IS compatible with the WCDMA 2100 mode. Could anyone confirm this?
There's also a CDMA sub-forum for Rhodium here. But as has been said, go to ppcgeeks for CDMA ROMs.
I have a newbie question. I know the note has 2 versions.
Can the AT&T version work with tmobiles 4g network? I heard that they may be slightly different.
If the AT&T doesnt get 4g what does it get? Tmobiles 3G or edge?
Can someone confirm the international versions work on the 4g?
Also the specs on these two devices are slightly different...but I can't find the difference!
If these questions have been answered sorry in advance!
They've been answered to death, but what the hey.
Some thing the AT&T version could possible work on t-mobile with a modem flash, but I wouldn't buy one hoping to do that until it's out and someone tests it.
International version can only get edge on t-mobile. Odds are if the modem flash doesn't work thats what you will get with the AT&T version as well.
The big difference is the processors. The international version has the faster exynos, while the AT&T has a snapdragon but also LTE
Ive read recently that some connectivity with 3/4g can be made. Since I don't have a note I'll post and someone can confirm.
Thanks for the answer though
i heard you can hack the AT&T version to get TMOBILE 4G but is the unlocked version of the Galaxy Note already able to use tmobiles 4G basebands?
go look in the Note's general forum. there are several threads near the top discussing this
No, it does not work with T-Mobile 3.5G.
i think the only way to do this is flash the skyrocket baseband to the att note. they run the same chipset
Hey XDA
I've been doing lots of searching to try and determine if the at&t model is identical to the Rogers (Canadian carrier) model. For some reason I can't find the answer.
I'd like to know which XDA forum I should browse for the Rogers model. Please let me know which forum is applicable to this model of the HTC One
Thanks!
There is no difference other than the LTE base bands.
Rogers: 1700, 2600
AT&T: 700, 1700
This is not a problem as LTE still does work on both devices with AT&T or international branded ROMs.
Stay away from Sprint and T-mobile as they use different base bands for 3G and I believe LTE. They also have not been tested on AT&T or Rogers phones, yet...
If you looked around a little you would have found the following thread which would have answered your question:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223236
To start with, kudos for this site. I have been reading it many times and am amazed at the community of developers around here.
Secondly, I searched but couldn't find my answer anywhere. And lastly, I apologize to the moderators if I posted this in the wrong place.
Anyway, here is my question: I have 2 HTC One right now, one is from Sprint and the other from AT&T. Here where I live, Sprint will only go on GSM networks but AT&T goes on the 4G LTE network. Both phones are unlocked since I am using them in Canada.
Is it possible to flash the Sprint phone with an AT&T Rom so I can force it to go on the 4G LTE network like my original AT&T does? I am in the impression that there are not many different phones except many carriers have specific bands that they use.
MAny thanks to those who will guide me in the right direction.

no you can't flash a gsm rom on to a sprint phone. sprint is cdma. you'll mess up or brick your phone.

You may want to list your specific carrier, but pretty sure Sprint's One only supports 1900MHz-band LTE.

This is correct. The sprint One will not be able to use AT&T's LTE on 700mhz.
Can't understand something.
I am on Virgin Mobile. When I use the Sprint phone, it says GSM as my connection. When I use my AT&T phone, I get either 4G alone or with the LTE symbol below it.
Both phones has the same menu when I do the *#*#4636#*#* so can someone explain why I can't get 4G on Sprint using the same SIM card?
I thought they only made one phone and added the rom that best suited the carriers.

Nope, it's much more than just software. There are several models of the One that HTC manufactures so they can optimize the antenna design to various regions/carriers.
The Sprint model can connect to the following frequencies (link):
2G/2.5G - GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
3G - UMTS/ HSPA: 1900/2100 MHz with HSPA+ up to 14.4 Mbps
3G - CDMA: 800/1900 MHz for Sprint
4G - LTE: Sprint: 1900 MHz

I wonder than why it doesn't connect any higher than GSM? I mean Virgin has roughly the same frequencies as Sprint if I go by the chart you provided. Never thought this was going to be that complicated...
Hope I'm not hijacking this thread, but I'm also interested in trying to flash a WWE rom (non carrier specific) to my phone, while I do have a sprint htc one. I reside in a region that only utilizes GSM so i don't need support for CDMA. Higher up in the thread someone stated that doing so would lead to bricking the device, but has anyone ever tried?
You can get psuedo-4g on gsm using the sprint model, you just wont be able to tell because it will only say gsm. 14.4mbps is the 4g you get with att unless it says LTE along with it, then you are connected to att lte.
The sprint model only has the LTE radio for sprints LTE in the USA. If you slid a tmo sim in your att phone, it wouldnt be able tp connect to LTE eother since they ise different bandz as well.
Hope that made sense

Yes, many have done that. A quick search in the general section will turn up several threads with a similar title of "I accidentally flashed a GSM ROM on my Sprint One and now it's bricked." The solution is to ruu back and you can get it working, but I WOULD NOT FLASH ANYTHING OTHER THAN A SPRINT ROM FOR A SPRINT PHONE.

Sigh, if only i knew that purchasing the sprint version would have been like buying the bastard child of the htc ones...

So then...whats the problem you seem to believe sprints version is the only one without att LTE, when in reality, the inly one with att LTE is the att version.
You cant flash a tmo rom on your att version even though theyre both gsm.
You cant flash a verizon rom on your spribt phone even though theyre both cdma.
Like i told you, 14.4 mbps is HSPA aka "4g" on tmobile and att. And you keep saying "it only goes upto GSM". Do you even know what youre talking about? Put the sim in your sprint phone, you will get "4g" GSM speeds. Use an app like sppedtest to try it out. "4g lte" means you are connected to the lte network.
If you get wifi everywhere you go, i honestly dont understand the point of this thread.

Exactly. I don't even know anymore if I have had a straight answer or not!
I found a link somewhere on this site that shows Sprint phones in their lonely category. I guess it does look like the Sprint HTC One phone was made with leftovers, sort of the black sheep of the family.
I so wanted to be able to transform it in a 4G LTE working phone but now, it looks likes it's a pipe dream after all:crying:.
