I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure you can't. Cdma desire is the short straw of the lot. You also can't use any of the nice new sense 2.0+ rom with it. But there's someone out there working on it in another post. I hope he still is anyway

thanks a million. Blugrass pissed me off so i just stoped paying. But i love my phone and would like to keep using it. I wonder if i could use it on sprint. The only thing is that us cellular runs off verizion and so does sprint. I know they block your esn but i'm not sure if it's for us cellular or just for who i'm using.

You could probably use it on boost, but sprint won't activate it.

I'm gonna say that it's not going to help us out at all. Since AT&T is a GSM network like what the Desire HD/Z was made to run on and the Incredible is on VZW (CDMA network) it'll basically be a Z port from a different device. In addition, the Inspire doesn't support sideloading (most of the reports say that anyway), while the DesireHD/Z does so it'd be a step down and/or completely unnecessary. If the inspire was on a CDMA carrier like VZW or Sprint I'd say it's worthwhile. AT&T? noway.
I was looking though the dump, but from what I have seen so far the only thing I would use would be the new sense stuff

Is rooting necessary to connec to Rogers 3G on Telus' HTC Desire?

Hello,
I'm new to this as my post counter suggest. I just bought a used Telus HTC Desire, I'm new to using Android device as well. I was wondering if I need to root the Desire to obtain 3G from Rogers. I tried using the APN from this thread but it still never showed up on the top notification bar. I'm not entirely sure what to do.
Thank you very much for reading this, I hope to have a reply soon.
Sincerely,
Steven K.
No just unlock and type in the apn. Rogers bell TELUS virgin etc use the same networks.

[Q] Would Any One Be Willing To Trade A G2 For A Inspire 4g

I am on at&t and I got A Inspire 4g it is is Great Condition no Scratches or anything it is only a month old and i was wandering if if any one would trade me a Canadian G2 so i can use At&ts 3g and since the inspire 4g is new and the G2 is getting dated i would need it to come unlocked so i can use it that is a must and preferably i want it rooted so if you are serious about this you can just reply to this thread and email me your phone number and if you want i will send you a picture of the inspire
bump for your cause.
There is no canadian g2. Chances are you won't get 3/4g with it on att anyways

I'm sure that is what he means as well. The Bell Desire Z is fully compatible with ATT's 3G network.

The Inspire is just the ATT branded version of the Desire HD, which came out around the same time as the Desire Z/G2. And both phones are fully compatible with ATT's HSPA+ "4G" network.
What don't you like about the Inspire? If its the lack of keyboard, you should try Swype. But you would have to play some games in order to get it loaded, since Swype is not a Market app.
Where are you located? In in Ventura CA and am kooking to trade for an Inspire 4g for ATT. I have the Desire Z unlocked on ATT. Its in great condition. Maybe we can figure something out.

I know that the inspire 4g is the same as the desire us I just
ment that the phone itself is new. And I am talking about the desire z
but I thought if I put that in my post nobody would look. The reason that
I want a g2 is that I just love the way it looks and I prefer a hardware
keyboard. And to the person that asked I live in Somerset,Ky Zip Code 42501
and of you are serious about the trade then private message me your
phone number and I will text you

Using a G2 on AT&T?

Might buy my gf a G2, but she's on AT&T. I can get s-off and all that, I would just like to know how well it performs on their network.
What are the 2G speeds on there? Any downsides besides being on 2G 24/7?
Thanks for any helpful input!
The 2g should really be the only downside. I used unlocked jailbroken iphones on tmobile and my only beef was the data connection. Hoping android gets as responsive(I don't give a **** what any of you fanboys say or think..ios is still smoother overall)as ios before the merger(which it should) or I might take a trip down apple-lane again.
But it should be a good fit for her minus data speeds...sorry for the rant lol

you'd be much better off getting a Bell HTC Desire Z from Canada. All the major networks up here (Bell, Telus, Rogers) use the same frequencies as AT&T so you'd get the full 3g/(fake)4g speeds.

I would love to, but I'm getting a decent deal for one locally so I can't go the desire z route, unless I find someone willing to trade.
My gf has a blackberry, once I unlock the g2 or desire z, can I just pop in the sim and it'll work or does she's have to switch plans?
Thanks guys!

HTC Desire CDMA U.S Cellular

I have a rooted and unlocked bootloader HTC Desire from U.S Cellular. But U.S Cellular isn't in Colorado. I'm slightly familiar with flashing. And I wanna flash this thing to Verizon or Sprint. I find people who have it done. Trouble is there is no instructions on it. Any help on finding a compatible Verizon or Sprint PRL for the Desire. And is there a program other then QPST? And can I do it when the phone runs CM 7.1
