Simple answer:
Yes if you buy the phone from someone who has an older one running 1.85 or earlier.
No if you buy the phone new from ATT, etc and it comes with 2.20. The 1.85 stock is getting used up and will be unavailable soon so my advise if your buying a new one make the rep turn it on so you can "test" it and look at the software number. If its 2.20 your screwed for now. More than likely the rep wont pop open every HOX for you to look at so if the first one is 2.20 leave and go to another store. If you get lucky and get one on 1.85 root it as soon as possible as you can only delay the update to 2.20 so long (its forced). You cant have a stock phone and keep old firmware they wont let you!!

Guess I'm confused as to how he is a troll considering most of his posts are on the captivate forums, an att phone. Could it be possible that he is looking for an upgrade to his outdated hardware?
I just figured, after being a member for a couple years, and hundreds of posts, he most likely knows that a retarded question like that is probably answered in the forums many times. Before it became a retarded question.

Just curious about this question - because I would really want to use this with T-Mobile.
So, a few days ago I noticed that an aquintance of mine was using an ATT Samsung Note with T-Mobile. I asked him - but you are only getting Edge (2G), right? So he says - "No! I flashed the GSM version modem, and I am getting HSPA+ (4G)", or whatever you call it.
I was shocked! Amazing solution.
Do we have this?
Thanks
Ever thought to read the other thread that's already open about this phone on T-Mobile?
We don't even have a bootloader unlocked and you're asking about flashing different radios. SMH.
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PHONES WITH COMPLETELY DIFFERENT HARDWARE.

Sigh. If S-Off is ever achieved then it will be possible. All you need is a similar phone with the same SoC that has a T-Mobile radio. In this case a One S radio may allow an S-Off One X to work on T-Mobile.
ANYONE CAN TYPE IN ALL CAPS IT DOESN'T MAKE THEM SEEM SMARTER THOUGH.

Hey other smart guy, you never said that but there is nothing wrong with someone asking a question. If they already made the thread they obviously haven't read any other possible threads so there is no point in not answering the question. I get people need to search but the thread is already here.
And when I say other smart guy I mean it in a respectful way because you gave a respectful response.

LG/Huawei makes low end phones so the phones they have on here either have to be popular and or high end smart phones. U might wanna google what your looking for or u can look in the android dev section and goto the android software development and hacking. (Before i edited this i was still pissed that htc dropped the mytouch line and was thinking about that and typed that instead lol )

This is the myTouch4G Slide forum. The Q is a totally different phone. There is forum at android central that is exclusivly MTQ centered like this forum is centered around the MT4GS.

I sold this phone and bought a S3, the second day I had it. I already had a T Mo Note but wanted a phone to have to mess around so I thought that would be a good one. Ended up selling it for 250 and paid another 200 for an S3. Going to be selling both to get a Note 2. Thanx anyways.

If you never unlocked your boot loader, then you're stuck with no option but to wait for an exploit.
This has been covered in multiple threads and the answer never changes
Haha sorry guys. Guess I've been around the skyrocket threads for too long. You should see how many dupe threads there is there. Thanks for the discipline. Hah. And well this sucks. Hopefully the can even find an exploit. It's been what a good month month and a half now.. Shiit. Usually takes a couple days from some that I've seen...

Seriously, the best op I've ever seen for examples of what NOT to do.
Btw, adb isn't exactly an extravagant programming language, but. Basic command line interface. Kudos for learning but we could care less what you say AFTER an OP like that. I'm still trying to figure out why the hell you would post this without building yourself a bomb shelter to stow away in while the bombs dropped. Surely you saw them coming and didn't believe claiming self stupidity was going to protect you:screwy:

Yup. HTC really botched the naming on this phone. It's like Hardees and the Six Dollar Burger. It is both a burger size and a menu item. I've ended up with the wrong order a couple times because of that. Just like people brick their phones confusing the One X international and the One X from AT&T.
I think it would help if they'd sticky the 3.18 method in this forum. I had to do a bit of digging and read through quite a few threads to make sure I was reading the right info for rooting my freshly repaired phone and getting s-off. I know it's still in the hack and chop no one-click phase, but I'm sure the guys asking feel like I do and prefer stickies because it gives the post the feeling that the info is the most accurate available and that's where the geniuses who cook up these exploits will be posting.
