Does the GSM radio help when roaming in the US? Was thinking of getting this phone for my wife since Sprint reception is horrible were she works. Also how is the battery life?
Was hoping for a non root answer as she will not want me to root it. She, for some reason, doesn't enjoy when things don't always work.

GSM will not help in u.s. however it has the best reception of any sprint phone I've used. Battery will last all day.

I have a suggestion not to be a **** but you can just ask no need for a new thread .
Now I do agree it be great but we do have a great deal of devs on here now also a lot will keep the work off xda because its just to chaotic at Times as both these devs did at first on the 3d .
The one series phones are great but also I think some devs will wait for the upcoming sgs3 but that's far off for now we have some roms here and more to come

Myn said he would be eventually...don't remember where I saw I think in Development section he posted a (MOD) thread in which he made it sound he was going to be building for the LTE.
Elite Recognized Developers get two free phones a year from XDA. Not sure how that works but imagine he will get the LTE and GS3 if he stays with Sprint. Also I dont know if he has to get both phones at the same time. Anyone who knows correct me if I'm wrong

That makes sense. Myn mentioned that he was going to upgrade to the LTE and give the SGIII to his wife. This was discussed in the ICS going on vacation thread in the EVO 3D dev forum.

I have the sprint S 3 but there's no 4gLTE in my area, would I be able to get the international version and use that on the sprint network? Cause lte is the reason you can't use the quad core right?

The international version doesn't have CDMA radios.

No no no, it won't work. Sprint uses CDMA radios, the international has GSM radios. You misunderstood.
Sprint is cdma but LTE is GSM technology. Just to complicate things.....

I so agree with you!!! I want to go to ATT or TMobile because they're GSM Networks but Sprint is giving me a crazy deal that I could never drop.

In much of the US CDMA coverage is superior to GSM coverage. I almost never do not have at least CDMA for voice. When I was with ATT on a GSM phone that was definitely not the case.
Well maybe TMobile is better. I find with Sprint. I only get service in about 60% of the places I go

What would my phone be worth? I took the official ics firmware zip and had no cell signal after. Even took it to a guy I know and he couldn't fix it. Everything works even wifi just gets no cell signal at all. Got no answer about what it was in multiple forums but ppl did try to help me out . What would it be worth? Anybody want an evo 3d tablet? Lol

That could be a problem for Devs.
However, I'm 90% sure you can fix it.
It says you flashed it to Cricket?
Why not try flashing it back to Sprint?
Lol an RUU would flash back to sprint. Believe me..I've flashed phones..and i took it to someone who has an actual HTC dev account. Nothing worked. Like the other Guy said. I think my radio burned out. Unless its something like if you flashed a GSM firmware to a cdma phone. That's the only thing that might compare

My wife has this phone. This is her first android phone. I figured it would be a good first phone since she wasn't familiar with the android os. So far she loves it.
I finally got her away from BlackBerry

Yea I didn't think there was a forum for it. But I'm getting it to use for a MP3 player for work. It has a bad ESN # but he only wants $30 for it. So I'm thinking it's worth that much

My wife has this phone as well, couldn't talk her into spending a little more money for a real phone. She likes a smaller screen even though she is always stealing mine when I'm home. I would love to root it and get some better battery life.

Look closer on google the viper is running ics now. Don't want to tell ya where to look but its definitely on google!

Looks like ics will be rolling out in the next couple weeks. Hopefully it helps with battery life.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Look even closer and ics can manually be pushed, using the update.zip and factory recovery but you can't be rooted or have deleted any sprint apps..

Here, this method works for the viper too. Just download the last file and use 7zip to unzip it and follow the instructions. I rooted my LG Viper that has ICS on it.
If you do not have ICS on it use this method to root
http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg-viper-4g-lte/171000-how-root-gb-root-lg-viper-gb-ics.html
Both methods work on either ICS or GB
These are not my programs, just a messenger.
Still no home for the viper?
