Hi everyone,
I just disassembly my HTC xv6900 verizon.Under LCD display,I found space for installation RUIM slot.Can I use sim slot of GSM model instead of it?
After installations just only enable RUIM if available in QPST or CDMA workshop?
Or my opinions are wrong ? Please advise.
Thanks in advance...

I could be mistaken but I believe it's going to require more than that. I don't believe that the Verizon boards have that capability.
Also why would you want to?
Thanks for attention,
Since I'm in Thailand.It's RUIM network.I'd like to add RUIM slot and use it same as china network.
I confirmed both sprint and verizon have space for install RUIM slot same as GSM model.
But I don't know full procedure to enable it.May be some process on mainboard except from just solder.
I ensure about use qpst or cdmaworkshop for enable it.But not clear step on mainboard.Please advise.
Thank very much,
I think you have to alter the radio also http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=4771 this is for the ppc6700 though.
Or try http://www.rimweb.in/
Thanks for all..

Oh i forgot to mention i have 1.50 radio
Well, to help you we will need some information... like...
Did it ever work for you?
What radio ROM version did it work with?
What OS version did it work with?
Did you do the flashing?
Basically, anything that might help us, will help you.

I bought a new hermes and since then i was using my sim which is still working perfectly on all roms and all os but i have changed my network now and simcard of new network doesnt get signals although i can open sim menu and sim contacts...
So i dont know whether it an os prob or a radio prob....

Even the telenor sim refuses to work
All sims are 32k
Hope i have provided enough info

So, you took out the sim (and all was working).
Then you put in a new sim and it did not detect network.
Then you put the old one back and now IT does not detect network either.
is that right? it seems that it cannot be OS or operator issue since this combination of OS/Radio worked before. maybe I have missed something. If it were me, I would just reflash everything.

any help?..................
no body have this prob?
Sounds like it is a SIM problem. Does your new service provider lock their SIMs to a particular phone, is the SIM properly activated? Or perhaps a bad SIM? Contact your service provider for a solution.
Max,
Sounds like you don't have the correct operator settings input into the Hermes. Here in the UK you can do this by either using Schaps Tools or finding the correct operator settings cab and running that on your Hermes first.
I would take the advice given earlier and check with the service provider that your new SIM can be used in any unlocked phone.
Once that is confirmed then I would ask them for their operator settings.To find out what settings you need click on Start>Settings>Personal>Phone and then go through the tabs that are presented to you.
Hope this helps.
Oh, by the way, read up on the wiki that supports Schaps 357a ROM. You can glean loads of useful information in there.
Cheers

I think it's likely to be either something that was mentioned earlier (your new SIM might not work in a 3G phone - just because your old network sim works doesn't mean your new one will)
-or-
you could try looking in the phone options to see if the network band selection has been incorrectly selected manually or, select the correct one manually and see if this has an effect. If not, I suspect the operator's SIMs won't work in the hermes.
HTH,
Smiffy.

thx,Let me make this clear that the sim(ufone) which refuses to work in hermes,I am currently using it in my 3g phone(NOkia 6680)already without any problems and i have already played with schaps tools and selecting various bands from menu but all my efforts were in vain.
Out of five operators in pakistan,only one works fine with hermes and none of other work.....This seems to b very strange as i can open sim contacts,sim messages and sim menu is there as well...and if i search for a network manually it gets the network,but it doesnt get registered on the network..just keeps on searching.
any comments on this?
i used a CDMA hard spl unlocker and now my gsm diamond(orange) which is totally dead can anyone help please would be highly appreciated.
i have the same problem
any solution ?
what are the differents between cdma and gsm phones??
?? is a gsm phone from a provider like vodafone and a cdma phone an phone direct from htc or what??
Have a look on Wikipedia for the CDMA / GSM differences.
Simply put, don't ever confuse the two and flash the wrong one

I bought a Verizon HTC Touch Pro 2 phone.
Someone can help me with a brief explanation about the steps that I need to follow to get my phone without the Verizon branding, WM6.5 in spanish and unlocked for SIM? (I don't need instructions, just a minor guideline)
As far I investigated I think about:
1) Install HardSPL (what version should I install of this to not get a bricked device?)
2) Install WM6.5 spanish unbranded
3) Unlock SIM card feature with IMEI, etc stuff
Greets!
My main issue is btw detecting what version of the HTC TP2 is the Verizon one. It is a CDMA? so HardSPL for CDMA will work?
Thanks again

Yes, if it's the Verizon-branded TP2 then you should look in the TP2 CDMA sub-forum for CDMA-specific things like HardSPL and roms.
i dont think there is a cdma rom in spanish. You need to download the radio unlocker for the cdma tp2 to unlock the sim. It will cost you a small donation

Thanks for your help sir!
Where can I donate? that it is the first thing that I need to do? Are you sure that the CDMA radio unlocker is needed? Why this phone is a CDMA version if they have a SIM card?
Thanks again

The Verizon TP2 is first a CDMA phone...but it has a SIM card because it also has the capability to use GSM bands in Europe...but not in the USA. Maybe there's some hack that permits use on GSM bands in the USA, but not legally.
Im looking to flash a custom rom to a Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 for the sole intention of getting rid of my work phone (AT&T Blackberry). What is the best ROM (and easiest to switch between radios) to do something like this?
Thanks for any tips!

So far as I know you cannot flash a GSM ROM to a CDMA phone. It will not work.

The CDMA touch pro 2 is also a "world phone" so it has a built in GSM radio. The key is unlocking it for domestic GSM carriers. There are some unlockers to do this, but I am assuming there are various different radios and ROMs you can use that may make this work better or be easier to use.

I am aware of the "world phone" capabilities, and I stand by my statement. You will brick your CDMA phone if you flash a GSM ROM. You need to flash a CDMA ROM.
I believe that it is possible to "un-brick" back to CDMA, although so far as I know no one has "un-bricked" a GSM phone that was accidentally flashed with CDMA.
for better results... aka answers.
i suggest asking this question here --> linky.
because primarily your phone is CDMA,
therefore a CDMA ROM would be needed/required.
i also suggest a read of this --> linky.
it is very informative.
and should help a lot with answering your questions.
hope that helps.

As a CDMA/GSM phone we have the capability to use a GSM sim card, but we can only use tools that were specifically built for CDMA, including ROMs/radios. Flashing a GSM rom/radio will seriously hurt your phone, possibly rendering it unusable.
To unlock for a GSM carrier in the continental US, you will first need to SIM unlock, either through calling your carrier and requesting a SIM unlock or using the olinex SIM unlocker found in the CDMA forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=517
There are a couple guides to getting the tp2 working on various carriers.
Wellllll... Where are the guides
Please some help,
I have read and reand and dont find the answer.
i have a world phone, i just to know if there are custom ROMs for them, i use it mainly on GSM but i would not like to lose the CDMA option.
My device is a sprint TP2, i am using it in Mexico, with telcel GSM. I Just want a custom ROM for it, please Help!
