I live in Oklahoma where the only game in "town" is a small local cell pro user. They have the worst phone selection in the history of mankind....really..lol. I moved here a while ago and have been with Sprint so far but I roam out here at my house so it is finally time to make the switch. The cell provider is now offering the HTC deluxe which I understand is a DNA without the Verizon moniker. Does anyone know of development for this phone or can I use the dev work for the DNA? Thanx for the help......and right now I'm on meanbean with my EVO 4g LTE so I'm no newbie to the world of rooting and roms.

Basically you have to look into the htc deluxe for Radios/Ril cdma/ lte/gsm, then kernel, and software. Provider must have cdma in order to be porter to from DNA ....look like the HTC Butterfly is the match
Here more Info http://androidforums.com/droid-dna-all-things-root/728576-htc-deluxe-root.html
Yes, the carrier is cdma. They used to be in bed with sprint. Last march they split the sheets and climbed in bed with Verizon. I would go with Verizon but they do not have any native infrastructure here so I cannot even sign up with them....like I said, the only game in...uh.....town. the town I live in has al of 250 people and the closest city is only 50k.....nice to live out in the country but it does have its drawbacks.
And Thankyou for the link.....

Fellow Okie, I'm in OKC. Couldn't you drive into Enid and hook up with a Verizon store? Coverage looks good in your area. In any event, your local pro company is bouncing off of somebody's towers. I'd think that if you can find out who has the best towers in your neck of the woods, you could go into the nearest big city and get on their system.
Just a thought - You're living that dream, so you would know better. Good luck!
I meant to say provider, not pro company....lol. and yes, the only towers out here are owned by Pioneer. Sprint roams on them and Verizon uses them as an extended network. Att and tmo also have some stuff here but the the speeds are so slow. I cant sign up with Verizon because there is no Verizon owned towers here. I can't get Sprint until I'm in Enid, though they have their LTE up and running there....very vast when in town but can't even make a phone call when I'm at my house in Ringwood. So Pioneer is the only game here. Just been waiting for them to have a decent phone to make the switch. I hope the DNA development is compatible with this regional carrier version. I have been rooting and playing with different roms for years, will be unhappy if I will no longer be able to play with my phone.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Also, as of March 2012, Pioneer and Sprint went separate ways. Everything north of I40 and west of I35 is dead to sprint now. Been roaming ever since. Now Verizon uses Pioneers stuff for their extended network. By virtue of my address, I am unable to sign on with any carrier except Pioneer......so much for the American ideal of no monopolies...lol

I have a DLX with SU. The bootloader can be unlocked at htcdev. I tried to fastboot TWRP using the butterfly 920e version of TWRP, which did not work. So i tried the DNA version of TWRP and it worked.. Then i just flashed the su_busybox file and I'm rooted. I'm fairly sure the revone method will get you S OFF,, I haven't done it yet,, because the 4.2 software update is just around the corner. But in my opinon,, HTC DLX users should follow DNA methods, other than getting superCID. Which you don't need to do.

I know on the Evo 4G there are people who have changed to boost, cricket, exc and have a company phone from Verizon (Absolute piece of crap) and there is a place in the mall that is selling a Evo 3D no contract for $250 (kiosk) and I was thinking of picking it up if I can switch the evo to verizon.
Anyone have any insight, I talked to my I.T. Director and he is cool with it and said we are going to be stuck with this pos for the next year since thats our next time that they are going do an upgrade and its going to be another piece of crap since they are buying phones that everyone can use (half our staff cant even email properly)

Sprint phones roam over to Verizon just fine. I do it all the time. In fact, there is an app you can download from market called Roam Control that will force roam on Verizon (excellent voice quality, crappy data speed ~120 kbps).
I've tried searching but haven't quite got a concrete answer but is it possible to flash the 3D to Verizon?

As far as I know not the Sprint Version as far as the gsm Evo 3d I don't know. The radio's don't work and I don't think even if they did Verizon would allow it like the little guys do (coughs boost cough) Even so the Boost network is Sprint's that they pay to use. I do know that Verizon PRL works on our phone but it counts as roaming and sprint will give you the boot for using it too much. I only use it when I visit my father as it's the only way I can get a signal and use it SPARINGLY until the wife and I drive home.
No, you can not.

I think technically speaking, the CDMA EVO 3D will operate on Verizon's 3G frequencies. WiMAX will not work through a Verizon account.
In order to get the device to operate mainly on Verizon and be registered to a Verizon account would be another story and process .. not sure Verizon would support or faciliate this process, let alone allow.
Hope that helps!
Thanks for the responses. Looks like I will jus get a new phone lol =)
Redd3VO
No worries, if you're getting a new phone w/ Verizon I'd say sell your Evo3D for about 250-300 on ebay/craigslist and then wait for the Galaxy Nexus.
Or the Rezound.
Or the RAZR.
Some nice phones are comin' out on VZW this coming quarter...
AND they just updated their data tier plans; doubled every plan's data for the same amount of moolah.
I got my Evo LTE in and wanted to know if it is capable of being flashed to work on verizon. Family member has a verizon account and I wanted to get my phone (EVO LTE) added to their account.
I saw a video on youtube showing it was flashed to verizon prepaid but I wanted to do it for post paid. Also that video was a sales ad and not a how to. Is this even possible since its a new phone?
Most likely yes but I doubt if LTE works. This phone is currently flashable to cricket, metro PCs, and boost mobile.

Sure if you want 3g speeds then yes you need a Verizon donor like the fascinate. Plus you need a cheap Verizon prepaid phone. One that's not activated yet. You can a fascinate that's currently active just have to back up its settings so you can restore it when your finished with it. But the prepaid phone needs not be activated

Do you have any more information about how I can go about doing this?
It's is possible it would require a reprogramming of the DSP. This has NEVER been done other than MTF.
If someone can obtain a similar phone with the SAME chipset on Verizon it could be cloned.
Don't hold you breath, but I think all LTE chipsets are capable of the entire spectrum meaning it's software.
Any word on this?
I'm also looking to switch to Verizon and I don't like any of the phones in Verizons line up
Would Verizon be able to do this for me or is this something that I have to do

Wrong.
T-Mobile owns 76% and has the right to sell its stake in the combined company at any time. It's a merger, keeping T-Mobile name with an exit door for DT if they so desire.

Did you notice the article you got this reverse merger idea from stated it as OPINION?
The deal between T-Mobile and MetroPCS is actually considered a reverse-merger, in the sense that it is set up for MetroPCS is effectively “take over” the larger T-Mobile USA. This is being done so that Deutsche Telekom can receive 74% of the new T-Mobile and the “new company” can be listed on the stock exchange, as MetroPCS is already a publicly listed company. This maneuver offers Deutsche Telekom a way out of the US market, if they wished to do so by selling off their shares at a later date.

Folks with current TMO Phones won't be impacted, because MetroPCS is CDMA & TMO is of course GSM.
Unless Metro has a huge warehouse of paid-for LTE stuff... I don't see why TMO would even want them, as the networks/hardware are incompatible.
ETA: Apparently it's all over spectrum licensing... TMO gets Metro's spectrum in markets where there's no (or not enough) TMO presence... They plan to shut down the CDMA network and make all MetroPCS customers switch to GSM phones.
Geez, is not a debate, what I said wasn't untrue except I meant 74% not 76%. And yes, the reverse merger could be the writers opinion. Sorry for adding info. Now I know better than to try to contribute to a forum.

That's a smart move from tmobile because all networks including metro are moving faster to lte, infact metro has lte and tmobile doesn't but tmobile is soon getting it. All networks will soon have lte merging into a global network.

You wont get 4g though. You might get hspa+, maybe. However you will be getting screwed over because straight talks's gsm coverage is inferior to their cdma coverage.
I was just gonna start a thread on this topic. I'm using straight talk on my DNA right now. I get hspa+ or "at&t" 4g speeds. I was just talking with a Wal-Mart rep who told me, that 3 straight talk users here In Montana were terminated from straight talk because the SIM runs on AT&T network. In the fine print supposedly it's only supposed to use sprint, and Verizon networks. I guess AT&T caught these users using their towers.
I'm a little scared of getting terminated myself. But I don't want to pay Verizon high ass prices! I guess that new law will affect us after all.

Since I've bin back using my HTC DNA I've bin with ultra.me which is in new york, so far no problem. Honestly if you yourself has an account with them I wouldn't worry. But for myself I keep hearing about METRO PCS about unlocked phones & up too $100 REBATE , I think I might check that out. The subject of the story is that if you have a phone you like make sure it's unlocked & go to whoever you feel comfortable with bottom line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Walk through please?
To any of the posters that have the dna running on straight talk, I'd love a walk through on what needs to be done to get this to work. I'm giving my boyfriend my old dna, and he has straight talk service currently. He's really excited to get a phone that's a lot better than the one he's been using for the last three years, and I really want to pull this off for him but Im not sure what exactly I need to do. All help is appreciated... Thanks!
I think you just set the phone to global mode for gsm networks of on stock. If using a custom Rom, just download the gsm version.

Service is good as it runs on at&t. HSPA speeds can vary from 2-8 MB so for $45 a month you can't go wrong. If he uses a sense based ROM he will probably have to manually edit his APN which the Straight Talk website covers in detail. If its a stock android ROM for me it automatically configured my APN. I just put my ST Sim in the phone.
