I know it's a WCDMA / GSM phone, do i follow instructions for GSM hero phones or CDMA Hero phones?
I checked the specs of Sprint CDMA and it doesn't have GSM on it so i guess i have to go with GSM instructions.
Can anyone confirm please...
The Telus Hero is a GSM Hero.
indeed.
Note that CDMA and WCDMA are not the same thing.
WCDMA is the 3G evolution of GSM, whereas CDMA is a joke
Thanks a lot!
HTC EVO V 4G versus HTC ONE V, both on Virgin Mobile.
They obviously some huge differences (single vs dual-core, 3G vs WiMax 4G, screen size, actual device size), but which one would you choose? (If you were me)
I work in NYC where there is WiMax 4G coverage, so should that influence my decision?

I live in the Staten Island area, I have the EVO V with a seidio 4000 mAH extended battery. 4G works great and its a solid phone, go with the EVO V.

I'm rolling with that setup too. Also bought the uber-crucial-slapyourmomma custom protective case for it to. Damn thing is a beast.
The Evo for sure. Bigger screen size, dual core, just an all around great device. One annoying thing I really hate about the One V is that it has a sealed battery...so annoying.
Yeah that sealed battery in the HTC ONE is a major turn off.
the cpu of EVO 3D gsm vertion is 8660 or 8260??
and if it is 8660, it means that EVO 3D could support 3 network types including GSM WCDMA and CDMA.
is there any one have a method to make EVO 3D gsm vertion to support CDMA???
thx

The Evo 3D is a msm8660 processor device, but the GSM version cannot work on a CDMA network due to the radio band frequency. That's in simplest form.

Here are the specifications for the GSM Evo 3D. The radios are all based on GSM technology and the phone would require different radio hardware to support CDMA.

My major is microelectronics. As i knows,the radio hardware is integrated in SOC(system on chip) which is MSM8660. is it right? if so , can we flash the radio to solve this problem?

I had used the rom that you developed. is it possible to solve the problem by flash radio? because the band chip is integrated in 8660.

The specs on gsmarena are mostly incomplete or sometimes wrong. The GSM evo 3d has MSM8260 chipset and CDMA has MSM8660 or is it region dependent?
Im not sure but according to some sources gsm has 8260
@OP
MSM8xxxs' are chipsets. The CPU is Scorpion.
And
No the GSM 3D does not have the hardware to support CDMA but the CDMA 3D has hardware (except sim slot, software, f/w, software radio) to support GSM.

This is correct. MSM8660 has support for HSPA+ as well as other GSM frequencies. It has no sim attached to the chipset altought there is a mount point for it. I read on another forum some time ago that a real computer genius was able to hack the 8660 to recognize GSM but that was it because without the things mnomaanw mentioned all it could do was recognize the signal.
The MSM8260 that is in the Sensation and EVO 3D GSM version have no CDMA radio at all.

PDADB.net is the best source for this kind of info I find. Here you can see the different versions of the Shooter or EVO 3D. Basically there are 2 GSM versions that use the 8260, the Sprint version uses 8660, and the KDDI version uses the 8660 as they use some CDMA in Japan I think.

Perhaps the chipset in the GSM Evo 3D varies by model or region then because the CyanogenMod table of devices also shows it as an MSM8660, but that may just be for software compatibility. The XDA specifications do reflect the MSM8260 for the GSM model.

Well, the only difference is CDMA, so it doesn't really matter which chip it has.

My GSM EVO 3D has broken display, so will Sprint's display work on a GSM version?
I live in Croatia. How can I most safely tell if my EVO 3D is CDMA or GSM? I'm asking this because I plan to put custom ROM on it so I must be sure.
Thanks in advance!
We have the GSM version in Europe, while the CDMA was prepared to US market. So most likely you have the GSM. But if you want to check it by yourself here is the trick.
There is a difference in trim colour around the cameras. GSM has gold trim, CDMA has red trim.
Oh! And the pins (for wire trick) are in different places:
- GSM: http://i3.bbs.fd.zol-img.com.cn/t_s...1C1ObyIeZA4AAEOD9nVh90AACmQwL5ZQkAAQ4n233.jpg
- CDMA: http://www.pocketables.com/images/old/6a00d83451c9ec69e2016305b34134970d-pi.png
Look for those tiny holes and if you find them you'll be sure.
