[Q] CDMA and GSM? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello
i want to know whats mean Desire CDMA and GSM ? i dont know my desire which one?
its depend on may carrier?
thanks

GSM use SIM cards to provide a service
CDMA are provided by a provider and can only used on that provider

thank u very much now i got it , then my desire is GSM.

You wanna know it because you are going to flash a custum rom I think?
When you are going to flash CyanogenMod for example you have to download the Desire Bravo, that one is for GSM.
I also have the Desire (GSM).
Good Luck

Just a very quick question, are they both share the same Radio? I mean when we refresh the radio, we do not need to care about if it is GSM or CDMA?

No they don't so don't even try it

[Q] GSM (T-Mobile) Rom's on Virgin Mobile CDMA Wildfire S?

Can I flash a rom that is made for a T-Mobile Wildfire S onto my Virgin Mobile Wildfire S without problems? Or is the fact that the Virgin Mobile Wildfire S is CDMA and T-Mobile is GSM gonna brick my phone or make it not function correctly? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks! Has anyone with a Virgin Mobile Wildfire S tried flashing any of these roms?
I am interested in this one mainly.

This is not the place for asking read rules. Questions should be in General.
EDIT: For your question ROM is for GSM only and some reported it working on CDMA but wifi, sensors, etc. not working, also you might get your answer unless you flash it.

[Q] Bravo model numbers and O2 3G900

Hello all,
I am aware that multiple model numbers exist with the desire. This includes the a8181, a8182 and a8183 (so I believe). I know there are different radio supports between these also, so that one model supports 850Mhz and one 900Mhz.
But I have S-Offed, reHbooted and am using the ICS rom,
My question is, how exactly can I tell which A series I am using?
Has anyone actually used 3G900 yet? Im meant to have it at work but im stuck on GPRS:1.

You'll probably have to change your CID since you're unlocked and S-OFF but it seems possible as long as it's another GSM ROM.
But you're better off asking in the general HTC One forum, not in the Verizon HTC One forum, as ours is a special variant.

OK thanks.
Adding to the mix a bit... once you unlock get S-off and ger supercid... the verizon branded phone could get a radio flashed of other carrier with the available frequency and a rom with its respective sim card to go to other carrier like say cricket? but it kind of seem to easy to me and im kind of confused in that matter.
