Hi All,
I have been researching the new HTC EVO 4G, and i love it. I have been an iPhone suck in the past and have finally realised why apple should stick to making things looks nice rather than function well.
I have been reading that the HTC EVO runs on the CDMA network which Australia had turned off in 2006,
Is there any modification that can be made for this brilliant phone to work in Australia.
If so please inform me as i will be buying one asap.
Thanks in advance
Hey, I don't believe there is anything you can do as you would have to replace the radio on the phone and associated firmware. Another down side to using the evo in australia is the is no 4g service available.
Technically (I think) it should work with Vivid Wireless which is a new WiMax provider. They are only in Perth at the moment, but are due to launch over east very soon.
The problem though is that Vivid is only an internet provider. If you wanted voice calls you would need to use their VoIP service (or someone elses).
Hi to all,
I don't see any thread regards the possibility for a 3G phone into a 4G.
Maybe its a silly thought, can it be possible?
does to days phone have the same chip or chipset for a 4G, may be its disabled?, or need to have a 4G simcard?, or is it if you want a 4G phone, you need to buy new phone all together.
Wait to hear your thoughts.

as far as i know 4g is available in USA and in UK, so we are talking about LTE, our ordinary Seny doesent have LTE mobo installed. And ordinary Seny have same mobo as 4G - LTE module
Thanks for the reply dublinz.
So LTE and 4G are both different systems? does this mean for a 3G network phone to be close as a 4G it becomes an LTE?
Ok let me rephrase my question from my first post. Let say there is a
HTC sensation 4G and a HTC sensation XE with beats audio(which is dead at the moment). As you know other HTC devices didn't have the capability to have Beats Audio, know nearly all HTC's phones have that function thanks to the Dev teams.
Now, for the 4G or LTE, can it be emulated in a 3G phone so it can use the 4G networks. Let say some Dev team see what chip or software in a HTC Sensation 4G which is present, and it can be emulated in one way or another, or make some kind of a virtual software to have the 4G in a HTC sensation Xe for example.
Wait to here you're comments.

Your logic will be plausible if Sensation 4g doesent have extra module (hardware part) on its mobo. So Dev cant create virtual LTE board (my opinion), otherwise trust me HTC will implement it (you know fight for the buck ) You probably heard that Sensation 4G wont have ICS upgrade until June, it is down to LTE driver that create problems….
If you're talking about the 4g that T-Mobile claims (hspa+) then the xe has it as does the international sensation as does the T-Mobile sensation.
As for 4g-lte or 4g-wimax (sprint), no sensation has a possibility of even emulating this. It's just not built into the SoC.

Ok, thanks for the reply guys. Thats all I needed to know.
Oh well in this case I keep on dreaming
I'm having problems with my HTC incredible S ever since I did the update. When I'm inside the house I don't have any network and outside the network keeps on disapearing.
Can anyone help me with this?
Anyone else having trouble with T-Mobile Hotspot connections using HTC sensation (rooted)? At home it seems to work fine, but at work I am suddenly getting dropped connections. It works for a while, then drops. Some days I have no issues. I checked other devices and it's the same on tablets and pcs. I have tried everything I could find and T-Mobile offers no help- only everything I have tried. Any suggestions appreciated.

For the past few days I have been playing with the MazWoz rom on a HTC EVO 4g. I like to the rom and have setup the phone for a day to day phone. However when I started this the phone was not active on the sprint network. Do I have to put the sprint software back on the phone to connect it to the network? If so I have another HTC EVO 4g I can take the sprint rom from. Does any one know if that will work?
