noob question - how to use use ruim in dna - HTC Droid DNA

Hi, I have a Droid DNA that I'd like to use on another Cdma operator, reliance in India. I had heard that people have been able to get it work by just popping in a reliance ruim but my DNA won't even pick up the reliance signal when I use their ruim. A sim works just fine though but I don't want to use the GSM since the network sucks. Need some expert help on how to enable ruim. Do I need to flash the radio? If yes, which one should I use.
TIA

[Q] Unlock atrix for use on other networks

Does anyone know if the atrix can be unlocked for use on other carriers such as t-mobile or verizon? You know those weird kids who use cdma. Really wanting to trade my atrix for the droid 3 and the limiting factor would be if its possible for verizon users to be able to use my phone on their network.
CMDA & GSM
Yes , Atrix can be unlocked (I unlocked it and using on T-mobile)
But it CAN NOT be used on Verizon due to different band of network (Atrix run on GSM, but Verizon use CDMA network).
And Droid 3 can be use on any network ( It supports both CDMA and GSM )
Heh Beast! I gotcha works on GSM and not CDMA. Many thanks!!

GSM using Jokersax CM9

I will be doing some international travel soon with my Photon to countries where GSM is standard. I usually just buy some cheap unlocked GSM phone and get a chip to use when I'm in-country.
How does GSM in the Photon work? Is it unlocked and can I just put in a chip from an international carrier when I'm in another country? I'm using Jokersax CM9, is there configuration I need to do there to use the GSM network instead of CDMA when I'm abroad? From what I can tell all I need to do is use *#*# info #*#* and then set the radio to GSM and have the chip in. I'd really like a confirmation that it actually works from someone using this now with this ROM since I don't want to land in country and then figure out it didn't work. So any tips on tricks that need to be done or just a confirmation that's all it takes would be fantastic.
Also - I'm assuming domestic GSM doesn't work at all, correct? As in, if I went and bought a prepaid GSM card from AT&T I can't just put it in, switch to GSM and go, right?
I am living in Israel and using the Photon (with cm9 0.6.1) on a gsm network. it works awesome!
just put your sim card and start having fun

CDMA Drazr and GSM network

Hi,
I live overseas and my network uses GSM 800/900/1900/2100 and UMTS 850/1900 (sams as AT&T)
All Verizon Razr come with SIM slot?
Are they UMTS 850/1900 compatible? Will I get 3G and H data?
What about Razr MAXX? Does it come with SIM slot?
I need to SIM unlock it or is it ready to put any micro SIM?
Hope you can enlighten me with this info.
Best Regards.

the cdma and gsm razr both have the same razr, with the cdma razr on ics you can use non U.S. sims no problem. so if you are oversea from the us you could get the branded cdma razr cheap, put it on ICS and use your sim. it should get 3g/H as my razr (gsm did with an at&t sim) so in global mode the cdma should
(don't take me a100% on this, but i am sure from what i read, but i am in the us. so i can't test it myself. maybe wait till someone else chimes in)
my questions is similar to this one if anyone could help..thanks

Thanks for your reply.
I am asking this (and so is my friend on the post above this one) because Verizon CDMA phones are always cheaper than GSM.... even cheaper if the have BAD ESN...
So, every Motorola RAZR have micro SIM Slot? Are they unlocked or I need to buy the code? Do you remember the Droid 2 Global? Those had SIM slot's but some of them had they unlock code changed and were IMPOSSIBLE to unlock... hope this is not the case with the RAZR.

from what i've read on the forums you need to either put the verizon razr on ice cream sadwhich (4.0.4) or use the hack to enable global mode in gingerbread (2.3.x)
so no unlock code. and yes, the verizon razr uses the micro sim for 4g lte sim

i have the gsm version (xt910, sorry i wasn't as clear about that as i thought, i said gsm, should've put xt910)
the xt910 has the cdma disabled and the xt912 has american gsm blocked.
and I've seen a few people claiming they flashed an xt910 to a cdma network like metro (it does have the radio, and couldn't the flashing program give them the esn/ect?
but i use it on simple mobile (so only edge for me. i might go to t-mobiles $50 plan if the non throttled edge is faster)

Help

so I am in canada using wind mobile but i want to use the sim card in the rezound, i have it rooted and flashed to the ViperRez but everytime i put in the wind mobile sim card it shows roaming! anyway i could fix this...maybe mess with the settings? or any other roms that you recommend? i would appreciate the help! thanks
If you are on a GSM network (Wind mobile says it's a UTMS/HSPA network which is based off of GSM) you need to flash the GSM patch or run a rom that is made for GSM. I'm on Verizon (a CDMA network) so I really have no experience with this.
I think any rom siul puts out is gsm.
