I have the GSM Evo 3D with the gold ring around the camera instead of red, and the 900, 1700, and 2100 bands for 3G. Which region is the phone for? I was wondering which RUU I need to use in case I have to restore and if all of the GSM ROMs are compatible with it unless otherwise noted.
*bump, a quick answer would be appreciated, thanks
Probably Rogers ....mines gold too

Thanks for the reply. I know that it's not the Rogers one because Rogers 3G is on 850/1900/2100 bands. Mine works with 900/1700/2100 3G bands. Also, I don't have a Rogers logo on the back.
According to PDADB.NET it is HTC EVO 3D X515 (HTC Shooter).

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!
will the flyer run on any u.s carriers network? because it would suck to have to be connected to wifi in order to enjoy this tablet. i have clear 4g service if only this was a 4g capable device it would make it epic and also will it have sms and mms?
thanks in advance
you need to look for the frequencies of the device
Network Band
GSM 850, GSM 900, GSM 1800, GSM 1900
3G 900, 3G 1700, 3G 2100
i think 1700/2100 is TMobile, but you'll have to check on their site
This will be sprint 4g http://newsroom.sprint.com/news/htc-evo-view-4g-fact-sheet.htm

Hello
I`m in California now. I really want to buy the EVO 3D without contract here.
I live in Switzerland. We don`t have 4g or Wimax.
AFAIK we have GSM, UMTS, HSDPA, EDGE, 3G.
Is the Hardware in the phone working in Switzerland?
For Software I will install custom roms.
Thank you
Nope, wait for the gsm version, should be out soon around the world

Are you sure?
Here are the specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_evo_3d-3901.php
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100
I think we have the same in Switzerland...
The Nexus One I ordered from USA too, works perfectly...
Can anyone say why this phone is different?
Thank You
It's not a GSM phone. It uses CDMA (no SIM card) so it will not be compatible with any European networks.
Oh, thank you for explaining me. I did` t know the difference.
Well, then I have to wait...
Maybe I can at least go to bestbuy and check the phone out.
Hey I have Cincinnati Bell a gsm carrier and i just recently got the htc evo 3d x515a from ebay and everything works fine except im only getting 2G EDGE speeds when it says i should be getting 3G ( CINBELL hspa frqency:1700/2100 MHz, Phone:850/1900/2100) I'm not sure if they all have to match but 2100 match up or not. Can someone help me figure out how to connect it to 3G?
Doing research myself on this phone for use on CBW. It appears you might have bought the wrong version of the EVO 3D phone. There is an X515M EVO 3D that has the 1700 and 2100 bands you need to get 3G and 4G on CBW.
The X515A phone is for the ATT bands. So the best you'll get with the version you bought is Edge. It would be similar to putting and ATT Iphone on CBW and only getting edge...
Here's the site that has the X515M: http://www.integrontech.com/HTC-Evo-3D-X515M-Unlocked-QuadBand-p/htc-evo3d.htm

Hey all, just curious. I've been looking at GSM Evo 3d specs on the net and I am confused over what are the bands.
As far as I know, the only GSM carrier of this device is Rogers right?
It lists the Evo 3d UMTS/3g as 900/1900/2100 on gsmarena. I read elsewhere this phone is 850/1900 and works with AT&T. So I am confused, someone let me know what's it really at. Thanks
edit: resolved, figured it out. Hope this answers helps someone (see below)
Well, nevermind, I guess I figured out the answer to this after some hours of digging. Seems there are 3 versions of EVO 3D:
x515m - European EVO 3D - UMTS / 3G bands: 900 / 1700 / 2100 / AWS [Camera outline is RED]
x515a - Canada Rogers EVO 3D - UMTS / 3G bands: 850 / 1900 / 2100 [Note: camera outline is GOLD and has Rogers logo on side]
x515c - Sprint EVO 3D - CDMA2000 1xEV-DO [Camera outline is RED]
x515m - works with T-mobile USA 3G/HSPA, Wind mobile (Canada), European carriers
x515a - works with AT&T USA 3G/HSPA and medianet plan

Thank you for posting this information. This was helpful! I'm looking at a X515m for use on T-mobile. This confirms the frequency band will work.
