Im already on board for the Sprint Evo 3D! But my friend has At&t and cant switch due to his wife HAS to have her iphone. I was wondering if anyone has any info on the release of a UNLOCKED gsm version that might go on sale overseas that could be used on at&t or tmo.
Im not debating whether or not there will be a GSM version, This we know there will be one..
I have scoured the net for info and all the stuff I can find is outdated (over a month old) stuff saying there might be a GSM e3d. Does vodaphone sell carrier unlocked phones, If so I may just tell him to get the gs2. If the gsm e3d is locked to a overseas carrier.
thanks
tell him to get the Lg thrill I believe it's coming to AT&t next month that's their version of the optimus 3D

So I would love this phone but I am with Sprint and it doesn't seem like there is a CDMA version of this phone to be found anywhere. Am I lost or is it assumed there will be one compatible with Sprint and Verizon. I have no problem switching, I just hate AT&T's crappy network and never was a huge fan of T-Mobile. What can CDMA carreirs expect? I hope not the Tegra 2 version (gross). Otherwise I will just hold out for the evo 3d.
In our area , there is available EVO3D cdma for cheap rate, it has a T-mobile logo on it, but the buyer says tht he has unlocked it for reliance cdma network
question is if i root it and put a custom rom on it, will it still be unlocked at reliance or it will be locked ??
if it has t-mo branding on it, it's probably gonna be the sensation, which is not the evo 3d. Secondly, t-mo is gsm only. If I were you, I'd verify if it really is the 3d, not the sensation, but I'm sure it will be the latter (if it isn't some scam to begin with)

I'm fairly certain my CDMA EVO 3D will NOT ever operate on a GSM network w/o changing the radio hardware inside.
Unless the GSM version comes with both radios inside, it will be impossible for it to operate on a CDMA network. "Unlocked" is generally a GSM term as GSM devices can be unlocked and then operate on any carrier.
Where as CDMA devices have to be programmed for a specific carrier. The programming process for a CDMA device can be a bit complex for people w/o computer experience.
Hope that helps clarify! I'm sure somebody else with more knowledge on the EUR versions of the GSM EVO 3Ds can chime in from their experience.

Also very great point! Don't think there is any GSM EVO 3D version being officially sold in the US under the TMO or ATT brand (the two largest GSM companies in the US). Perhaps a foreign GSM version of the EVO 3D, once "unlocked", could operate on a US GSM carrier such as TMO or ATT, but fairly confident TMO and ATT havent ever sold a GSM EVO 3D.
As a double check, if you wanted, a quick glance at the line up of phones available on their web site should help clarify. Or if you really wanted, call their customer service departments and ask about a EVO 3D or any type of 3D device to see what they have to offer.
I've done a lot of searching and I can't find any info if the HTC One X+ (ATT) will work fully on TMobiles network. I would like to get this phone but want to know if the radio's will work.
In a word, no.
No HSPA+ support for AWS.
The first pictures of the HOX+ that came out had T-Mobile branding on them and there's been some talk that it might end up there eventually also so I wouldn't loose all help yet. You just may be waiting for T-Mo to bring out their version for a bit longer.
I've been looking around for some good deals on a off contract HTC One. I'm currently on AT&T but I've noticed T-Mobile and Sprint HTC One's seem to be selling cheaper. I've read that all HTC One's have the same hardware including radios, but what about the LTE bands? Is there any difference between the carriers? And would I first have to unlock another carriers branded phone in order to get it to work on AT&T?

I'm pretty sure the T-Mobile One will work with AT&T's LTE network. Not sure if you need to unlock the AT&T or T-Mobile Ones to use on each other's networks. You can't use Sprint on anything but Sprint's network. Sprint uses CDMA and AT&T and T-Mobile are GSM networks.
You should get a T-Mobile version of the One, that is the best version to get. It will support both AT&T and T-Mobile LTE bands, plus regular AWS 4G on T-Mobile. You will need to have it SIM unlocked to use it with AT&T, eBay is where you can do it.
From where I am, socal, on CL everywhere, the AT&T version is always cheaper. T-Mobile version is harder to find and usually costs more.

Thanks for the answers. Good to know a T-Mobile phone will work should I purchase one.

Curious as well, can someone give solid proof of all bands? I wouldn't want to just fall back on word of mouth when purchasing a phone based on this info.
Thanks!

No only t mobile not sprint or version bit you could get int version
I currently have a sprint HTC One max, rooted and s-off'ed. I am going to get the same exact phone from verizon. I was wondering if there is any difference between the Sprint HTC One Max and the Verizon HTC One Max. Or are they the exact same phone, just different carriers.

You sre right . They are same phone with different carriers. But the verizon one comes sim unlocked..
Is it possible to sim unlock the sprint version without rooting? Like one of those unlocking companies online. I'd love to buy a Verizon version for use on att but I find the sprint version so much cheaper on the used market. Anyone know? OP what are you doing with your spring t version?

They are not the same hardware. Verizon version has two bands sprint does not. Also you cannot use one on the other because cdma carriers lock their network down.
