I don't think so, but then again, you should be asking this in the CDMA Raphael section. I think you should be fine, but I have a GSM TP.
I have searched this forum for a CDMA rom but I cannot seem to find any. Is their a different process for flashing a new rom to CDMA phones. A link with information to flashing CDMA Touch Pro 2's would be delightful. Thanks. Also will my MMS/Data settings be erased and need to be typed back in once I flash a new room
What you need is at PPCGeeks.com.
They have a whole CDMA Upgrade forum over there.
Hi
I got a Sprint HTC Touch Pro2 which is unlocked and i use it in India using the GSM feature of the phone using SIM card. The phone came with a WM6.5 OS, i decided to flash the phone with custom ROM's, here are my few queries
1. In my case where i use the phone using SIM, should i use the GSM ROM or CDMA ROM?
2. Whenever i reboot the phone, it tries to contact the provider (Sprint) for Handsfree activation, How can i turn this OFF?
3. When the phone is rebooting, i get the Sprint splash screen, can i turn this OFF?
4. The first time Hardspl was intalled (paid in a store to get it installed), he installed a Hardspl that says "Test Only ROM not for sale" when rebooting, is that normal behaviour?
Phone Details -
RHOD400 32M SS-BC
SPL - 1.00.Olinex
MicroP(LED) 0x0A
MicroP(Key) 0x04
TurboHW/TurboSW
There is some TP MFC Date (let me know if i need to provide)
Software Info
OS Version - 5.2.23544(23544.5.5.0)
Manila Version - 2.5.2.121225.0
ROM Version - 3.04.605.3 WWE
ROM Date - 02/21/2010
Radio Version -1.96.00WF
Appreciate if can suggest the correct HardSPL for Manila or Energy ROM's.
Thanks
Raj

one. only use cdma roms. flashing a gsm rom would brick your phone.
two. settings --> personal --> phone --> network --> mode of operation --> gsm/umts only --> you can manually select network or allow it to automatically select.
three. easiest way... i suggest a program called bsb tweaks. found here.
four. i havent ever heard of paying for hardspl install. so unsure. though. i suppose as long as it works... no use fretting over it? else you can (re)cdma hardspl, here.
remember. only use cdma roms.
a list of a collection of cdma roms can be found here.
i also suggest task29 before you flash new roms. can be found here.

Which Andoid Version? GSM or CDMA
HTC TOUCH PRO 2/SPRINT
So before installing Android ROM onto my SD card, I flashed and unlocked my phone including the radio allowing it to use a SIM Card in the states.
I changed the Radio Settings To GSM.
1. Windows Mobile works fine with no issues. Phone works great.
2. When I load Android from the boot application it runs fine.
2.1 Issues: I can not get a Tmobile signal while in Android. I pick up Cingular and ATT and some other provider I've never heard of, but I can not connect to TMobile.
Wifi Works great.
I Installed the CDMA Android ROM, Will it brick if I install GSM Android ROM.
Any suggestions would be very helpful !
Thanks in advance.

Here is my question I have an HTC 7 PRO (aka HTC ARRIVE,HTC GOLD) the model is HTC USCCHTC-PC93100 I have a student unlock but I need a full unlock. I am new to rom flashing on windows phones im used to jailbreaking and rooting android and ios. I was looking at try to flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499981 to my phone what I want to know is is it possible to flash this to my model of HTC and if I do flash it will it will I have to take my phone back to US cellular to have them reprogram the phone to their network or will it work just like normal after flashing any adive would help thanks.
Do you have a GOLD (also known as the 7 Pro) or a GOLD_C (also known as the Arrive)? The GOLD is a GSM phone, and won't work on Sprint or any other CDMA carrier. The Arrive is a CDMA phone and won't work on T-Mobile or any other GSM carrier. Flashing the ROM won't help here, either - this is a hardware issue (literally, the radios are different, plus GSM phones have SIM card slots and CDMA phones usually don't). Do *not* attempt to flash a GOLD_C ROM to a GOLD or vice-versa; it'll probably fail but if it doesn't you may make the phone unusable and unrecoverable short of using a JTAG connection.
However, if you want to flash a GSM ROM to a GSM phone, or a CDMA ROM to a CDMA phone, go ahead. However, that won't remove the SIM-lock if there is one. The odds are, if the phone can't be activated with your preferred carrier right now, re-flashing the ROM won't help.
US Cellular says its a 7 PRO but model says 93100 which is the arrive it doesn't have a sim slot so it is a CDMA and DFTs XSPL Tool says its a GOLD_C it has spl version 4.1.230513.1 I have tried the spl downgrade tool but it fails at 4 percent and says invalid vendor ID but if I did manage to flash it would if have to be reprogramed by us cellular to work again since its CDMA and not a sim card
I ran a system information tool and it reports the phone as the HTC arrive so I'm not sure why us cellular markets the phone as the 7 pro but it is definitely the HTC arrive gold_c with a sol of 4.3
Try to flash the older version of your US cellular radio (download from the website in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427907)
And then try to flash it, using the directions listed here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295068
In other words, you want to downgrade your SPL with just a radio flash (task 00). It is not necessary to flash the whole ROM. (Or you can do a hard reset - no big deal, as you will loose all your stuff anyway if you do flash a new ROM)
Then, you can go ahead and try to change RSPL and flash the ROM to see if it works. If not, not big deal, can always flash back your stock rom (also avail on above web site)
I have managed to downgrade my htc arrive us cellular spl and I used the xspl tool to install rspl and hspl now is it possible for me to flash this rom image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499981
the only thing is the rom image says gold_c_sprint and my carrier is us cellular will I be able to flash this and use the phone like normally or will I have to take the phone back to us cellular after flashing and have them set the phone back up with there network
I have managed to flash my phone with the rom I posted and it still works but all branding on the phone is now sprint is there any way to get the branding back to US Cellular via reg edit for warranty purposes I have went into
HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\ and changed mobile operator to USC-US which is US cellular
I also changed the MODeviceName into USCCHTC-PC93100 which was the original name of the device. but im not sure if there's anything else that need to be changed and I cant figure out how to get the marketplace back to the us cellular marketplace they had apps that were only available when it was set up with us cell
I would be careful of changing things in DeviceTargetingInfo; poke the wrong setting and your Marketplace (and all apps installed from it) can stop working or your phone may receive an update that damages it due to an incompatibility with a prior update from a different MO or something.
There is a "Marketplace Config" app available that allows you to select the OEM and MO marketplaces. On a GSM phone, the MO marketplace is usually automatically switched depending on the SIM card (this switch may take a day or two).
Another option would be to start with the US Cellular ROM, and customize it with full-unlock and any other changes you want. This is not my area, though; I have no real experience with creating custom ROMs but there are entire sections of this forum devoted to the topic.
that might be what I have to do is just make a custom us cellular rom Ill look for a section in the fourm to see what I can find on how to make a custom rom
please give me link for us cellular raido
