Got a question, if I got a euro EVO 3d then if i root and flash a different radio will it pick up different signals to better support it here in the USA or am I just stuck on edge??. If not is there any software adjustments that can be made to make it pick up at least 3g??

It all depends I'd there is a carrier lock. Might want to post this in the GSM 3D forum.

Isn't there only a GSM development forum? Q and A forum might be a little better.

You cant software modify it to get AT&T 3G. You need a X515A model number (Rogers) EVO 3D. No way around it.

BTW, anyone with a rogers evo 3d care to send an stock rom or nandroid backup? My seller shipped me the evo 3d with a custom rom, that failed. Really would like stock back.

Wow where is all the CDMA people at ?
The poll has really shocked me . I thought Cdma would be much much more but apparently not. now may be more devs will come to the gsm android development side .
P.s. based on the poll at the writing of this post
i would go with cdma...gsm companies here are no good..prices suck
CDMA here in the US
GSM here in OZ. I did hear a comercial on the radio saying Telstra is starting 4G roll-out, so maybe soon.
I'm actually kinda surprised at how many have the GSM version. For all that, why not just wait a few extra weeks and get the GNex which just released in Europe.
it seems that no CDMA users here cuz they are bussy rooting and s-off ing and trying new ROMs not like us GSM users we are just jumping around topics looking for something fitting our version and now we lost hope of devlopment section and we are looking for MODS in general section
CDMA here... Sprint
Bump... Bump ....

verizon says its not a global phone and as such does not have unlock codes for it.

He's actually a great developer over in the wildfire s section. I ran his sense 3.5 Rom and his 2.1 and they're great. He's also helped me out through pm trying to fix some stuff. Thanks jmztaylor! And welcome to 3d world, did you get your 3d yet, or is it even out for VM?
About your poll, I pay sprint for service but my phone says Virgin Mobile because I was one of the few that had to flash that red hot VM firmware leak, but ill be back to all sprint soon.

You're a bad troll and you should feel bad. Look up bloodrain's posts if you want to be a troll.
Also OP, are you talking about Firmware or actually have bought it on VM?
IDK about you but if I'm going prepaid I'm going to go to a GSM network that runs on a good carrier like ATT.

Jmz, I flashed my sprint evolution 4g to my virgin mobile account.
I thought the Evo 3D came out just about a year ago on Sprint, perhaps 13 months. Why would anyone break contact with a year to go to move to VM? I'm sure I'm missing something here.
I recently bought the Sprint branded Evo V 4G but that's not the users you're looking for.

Do you need a donor to flash 3D to vm now that the firmware is out?
EDIT: And does it have to be a smart donor?
How's the service for Virgin Mobile? This divorce is going to cost a lot of money. Trying to cut back on everything just to stay afloat.
I installed the VM firmware the first day we were told that it had to be installed to run freeza's ROM, but I have not had many issues like others. And after flashing the nocturnal release, I cannot find anything on my phone that references VM.
How do you flash to VM? sorry if that's off-topic
On Sprint here. Worst customer service, limited signal, great price. Lol.
Posted on XDA app via EVO 3D [CDMA] rooted (Cool ROM ICS V7)
I'm going to America for 8 months(Ferris State University, Michigan) and I would like to take my EVO 3D GSM with me.. but will it be useable?
I did read something about a GSM network in America(straightalk or t-mobile) or are they on a completely different frequency? Because then I would need to buy another phone there.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app
I want to say from my days with T-Mobile that if the phone is unlocked, they will activate it with one of their Sim cards. My only concern is if there is a frequency difference. You could contact T-Mobile and ask them.
Save the Drama for your Mama with Tapatalk 2
At&t is also GSM, but again, unsure about the frequencies they use. T-mobile and att are the big 2 GSM carriers. Most if not all prepaid carriers piggyback off of those 2 or the CDMA carriers.

I would say you are probably ok, gsm is know to be a world phone meaning you can basically use it without sny major ulteration, I am in canada my evo is gsm( as we only have gsm in canada) and I am using an european based rom with no problems, You will definately need a sim card from the u.s. which you can pick up when in the states or you can order one on ebay. You will also need to be unlocked.

Because the radio is different. At least that's what i'm guessing. Different network different radio.

I thought the EVO used gsm radio for the 4G LTE.. I read somewhere that the phone has an embedded sim card for gsm radio.. That's y I seen the gsm radio frequency on the menu *#*#4636#*#* and if that's the case we shouldn't have this problem... Maybe I miss understood but ill look for the article..

Whatever you read or think is 100% wrong. The Evo is on Sprint's network which is CDMA. While there may be some GSM elements reported in the phone, it is indeed a CDMA phone. Completely different networks, as any google search would show you.

Now I know sprint uses cdma for their regular services... But for the lte services they need to use the gsm in my understanding...

Sprint LTE does not use GSM.

Google search for Evo 4g lte network specs:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=htc+evo+4g+lte+network+specs
LTE is a variant of utms/gsm. The phone itself is not gsm, there is no way to use the phone on gsm networks. You can't even use LTE on other networks because they all have their own frequencies and differences in their networks

Thank u sir... Somebody that actually answers the question instead of insulting... So with it using a variant of utms/gsm the radios are still different I'm guessing? The only thing I don't understand is I thought the radio was built with the qualcomm chip so if the phones had the same chip then the radio would be similar? Sorry if I'm wrong just trying to grasp an understanding...
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Similar board design with a soc but its a modular design that allows for custom built hardware. You can have 3 OEMs with 5 different phones each with the same Qualcomm board and soc and they could all be built specifically for one carrier only. GSM is the standard, CDMA is more prevalent in the US.
