Sprint HTC Evo - General Questions and Answers

I have a friend that wants to buy a used Evo but it's been flashed to work on Metro. Can he use it on Sprint ?

Nah. If it's been flashed to MetroPCS the MEID/ESN will be registered with them and not Sprint. It'll need to be flashed back to Sprint, if this is even possible. Better off asking that question in the EVO Q&A section

It is possible to flash it back to sprint.

The HTC Evo is only designed to work on sprints network. The only other way to use it is on crickets cdma network and get it flashed.
It will not work on verizon

You can't unlock it, but it can be reflashed to another network. Also, on the Sprint network you can use the phone in other countries. I believe you just have to call and let them know.
Reflashed to any network or just crickets?

So it is a Sprint phone, just not on the Network anymore. I'll assume your rooted since you flashed to another carrier. You can check THIS thread out. Has the PRL you want, plus a bunch of others. You might have to try a few different ones to see which works best for you.

Root inspire 4g. On gingerbread

Hi I had to send my HTC inspire 4g back in for warranty purposes so I had to go back to stock to send it in.
I rooted it when I first got the phone and iT was on froyo and I have been looking through the forums but I see a lot of rooting formats for froyo. I don't want to try one of these and brick my phone so can anyone tell me how to root on 2.3 please?

Boot into bootloader and you will see the hboot version. Shut down the down and select reboot bootloader...

[Q] New to Inspire and have a question

Hi, I'm coming from an LG thrill ... and I was just wondering when I'm installing custom roms, am I able to just download them directly from the phone and flash in recovery, or do I need to download them on the pc and manually place in the root of the sdcard to install. I'm sorry if this was already asked but Ive been searching all morning for an answer and can't seem to find one, and I don't really wanna brick my phone in anyway lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks !!!
Either way works just make sure your internet connection is reliable

You can flash desire hd roms as well on the inspire. With some of the roms you may need to flash a seperate fix, but usually they are already incorporated in the rom. They are usually stated in the op.
