Which are GSM vs CDMA - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

I am not new to this forum...however, I cannot tell if any of these ROMs are for CDMA. can someone please provide a list of CDMA ROMs on xda? Or aks ROM builders to indicate CMDA or GSM in the ROM definition.
Thanks

All roms at XDA are GSM unless its explicit marked [CDMA] in the title of the rom topic.
for CDMA roms check primary PPCGeeks.

That's too bad, you guys have some great ROMs on here!
What about installing a CDMA rom and adding the CABs from here, that should be fine right?

CDMA Compatible?

Hey.. i am coming from US sprint CDMA version of the diamond... many of these roms look great, but i am curious as to if they will work with the CDMA version.. Has anyone tried it yet or is there a guide on how to do this? Thanks
I guess the rom itself should work.
What doesn't work is flashing the radio or SPL.
That will brick your device for sure.
Cya,

thanks viper.. so i am just curious.. has any CDMA users tried this yet?? thanks guys for the help..
the GSM roms will not work.
you will be in the same boat as users before you. stuck in boot loader.
use a rom thats made for CDMA devices, they are two different devices compleetly.
ok thanks juggalo.. i thought they didn't work, but after searching I found some hints that they should.. just never any confirmation on it actually being done.. well thanks for clearing this up..
users have tried to use GSM roms. it just messes there device up.
Mhmm ok Good to know.
I'm already having a look at CDMA radio and that one is completely different.
As for OS I thought it's just WM standard. But it seems it isn't.
Thanks for info, Juggalo_X

in therory yes it is the same os. but the drivers for the radio and the SIM and such are different. causes it to not boot.
so are there any CDMA Radio's/ROMs out there?
most don't say whether they are GSM or CDMA...
This is the only ROM that i have seen so far on xda that is make for CDMA Diamond for both the Telus and Sprint version.

NOOB Needs Help

Hey guys,
I am a frequent XDA user in the RAPHAEL and KAISER forums, but my work requires that I use a Sprint Touch Diamond phone which is based on a CDMA network.
I did a search of the site and read the flashing tutorial, but none of it applied to CDMA.
My question is this: Can I follow the tutorial and HARDSPL a CDMA Diamond and then flash it to any rom in the forum? Or do I need a special CDMA form of HARDSPL, and a CDMA rom?
Any clarification on the matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Daniel
For CDMA device, you should probably go to ppcgeeks forum, there's a lot of Sprint users and a lot of CDMA roms. xda-dev is more GSM oriented.
Thanks for the advice, Ill check it out, but I feel that XDA always has more to offer.

Help With WM6.5

Hey, I want to update my phone with the 6.5 ROM, to try it out and all that good stuff. I have this version of the Touch Diamon.
http://www.telusmobility.com/on/pcs/handset_htc_p3100.shtml
I am wondering what file I need to do this. And are there any steps to installing it, or can I just go ahead and install?
Thanks.
you have a cdma diamond. ppcgeeks.com is going to be the best bet as most information there is for cdma and xda is mostly gsm.
BEWARE

i don't know about your network. you have to find out which network are u using. if it is cdma or gsm.
if it is gsm , then u can flash from this forum but if it is from a cdma company,
better you take a look in ppcgeeks.com

yep both websites have it. just type hard spl, flash, as keywords and you'll get tons of tutorials
what ever you do make sure the hard-spl you use is for cdma!
So is my EVDO CDMA or GSM?

EDVO is CDMA
Try Calkulin's ROMs. He cooks mostly for CDMA.

Alright, I am abit confused. I do that before after, during installing what 6.5 version?

Can I flash it?

Ok, I have a verizon vercion so I take it its cdma. So I imagine I can only use cdma roms even do I actually use gsm, right?
Also I am thinking of flashing 6.5 shipped rom from htc thats in wiki. Can I?
one last question.
When u see people who post cdma roms for sprint...does that mean I cant use it?
thanks

i just got T-mobile..... and got the touch pro 2... since tmobile is gsm, which roms can i flash ..........and which rom is considered greater( ya know...all the bells and whistles)
ive already unlocked it... dont know if i have to change the radio rom yet... but i am unsure which roms are for cdma and which are for gsm.
can someone help please..
and...
is there anything else i should do before flashing the new rom.
There is no easy answer, each rom is different and meets the needs of different users, look at the descriptions, usually in the first post, and see which rom looks like it will fit your needs. Sorry not clearer, but that is the best I can do
hey skipper... its not really the rom im concerned with... im more concerned on is there any difference on flashing these roms with a gsm phone or cdma phone..

Your question has already been answered, there are threads here that are for noobs with flashing. READ THOSE THREADS.
Do not be lazy, your answers are out there.
Yes there is a difference in roms for cdma and gsm. Look under the thread for your device, then choose which kind you have (gsm or cdma), and look at the different roms
The 9.1 Timor Rom is pretty good if you don't have the need for Live Mail. It's been removed in that rom.
