i'm confused? the title of this thread says flashing sprint tp2, then when we open the thread you are talking about a mogul. If you have mogul questions you should place them there instead of the tp2 thread. I don't know how to help that problem, but placing the question in the correct thread is definitely where to begin.
yes
i am using the mogul on metro pcs but i just bought a sprint touch pro 2 and would like to use it instead of the mogul... the TP2 is a damn fine phone.
Here is the forum for CDMA Rhodiums. It doesn't seem that Hard-spl, much less unlocking, is anywhere near ready for the CDMA Rhodium yet, though. So you'll have to wait awhile. But once a Hard-spl and unlocker is released, it would be released there.

ok i understand. I too have a tp2 and love it. Unfortuantely the hspl isn't ready for the tp2 yet so no custom roms can be made. the hspl is the unlocker for the phone, without that no changes can be made.
I dont think some people realize what your asking... basically people think unlocking the phone means adding a new rom onto the phone.. you dont need a hardspl to put a phone on metro's service... Long story short.. until houdinisoft supports the TP2 your out of luck... i had a TP flashed on metro and thats the latest htc phone they support right now.. i'd keep on checking houdinisoft.com(thats who metro goes thru to reprovision the phone) to see if they'll update there support for more phones in the future.

You are correct, with that software you don't need hspl. But with hspl you don't need that software. HSPL will more then likely be out before that software is out. the tp2 has already been shipped to cmonex and i'm almost certain cmonex will crack that phone before that software website is updated. More then likely that software website uses the hspl to do whatever is they do, but that is only a guess.
Ok so time to move this thread to the right forum, it doesnt belong here with all the gsm Touch Pro 2
So what is metro? CDMA service like sprint? I am confused what that person really wants here...

Yeah - MetroPCS. Primarily down in the south as far as I know. I know it's pretty big in south Florida (from what I saw).

might try it if i cant get boost to give me a cdma plan
Metro
Yeah, metro is basically the same service as sprint. more or less rented towers from them. they use the same technology, but they keep it dumbed down and make their phone OS's either out of java, or for smartphones some sense of symbian.
I have been using the TP2 with metro pcs for a while now... prob a week after I started this thread. The proccess for flashing the phone is the same as the Sprint Mogul. The only thing that will cost you money is finding a store that ca add ESNs to the Metro network. I found a store in Orlando that flashes CDMA blackberrys to metro and they seem to be able to add the ESNs. When I brought them the phone they said no problem, what kind of phone is this? I just said touch pro, not touch pro 2. When they called to have the ESN added he just gave them the imei # and presto- phone has worked great ever since- Phone, text, and full web. no MMS though, but I really dont care about sending pics.
-Last night I updated to the Official Sprint Win Mo 6.5 because there was a known bug with the version that came on the phone that would make the dates come up as 2016. After installing the new OS I can not change the modem settings to access the internet. So if you are trying to do this, and you want to be able to access the web, then do not install the update to 6.5, unless of course you are using a custom rom
i have an unlocked rhodium wold phone, with sim, and cdma, i want to get the new straight talk prepaid, i was told that you simply had to get the sim from them and stick it in much like the att, does anyone have any experience with this? i would appreciate any help you could provide, ty, cheers andrew
So I have been looking around but, I havent found anything specific, or exactly what I am looking for.
I have a HTC Sensation, and my Tmobile Contract just ended, I'd like to use Metro PCS as my next carrier, but i'd like to bring my phone with me. Now I've seen Metro PCS phones, and the galaxy 3 has a smaller simcard, but I'd imagine that is unique to the phone, and I should be able to get a same size Sim card.
How would I go about Unlocking my Sensation to work on the Metro PCS?
What are the rules Metro PCS must follow, what do I need to tell them, I'd like to get the cheap $50 monthly bill, so any advice or ideas on what to do?
thanks in advanced.

Use the sim unlock thread in the dev section....

Here is the link to the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
Once you find your unlock code write it down, and when you put your MetroPCS SIM card in, you'll be prompted for that unlock code.
tyvm, took for ever to find that thread lol, this Forum has gotten so big since I registered a while back, its truly incredible.
That link will be super usefull, when I finally have to get around to unlocking my phone, (on vacation, and using aunts PC, so no bookmarks and such.)
Now I just need to find out about what line of BS to tell the Metro PCS rep to get a Metro PCS sim card.
I'm not sure if something changed, but last I checked metro pcs used CDMA network and the sims were only for 4g lte, which our phone doesn't have.
sent from my jingly bells
Need to Find a good CDMA flashing software that is simple to use but still works. Looking to flash sprint phones and verizons to metro PCS. If anyone knows a good one that they use personally or has heard good reviews about please let me know about them!
