[Q] Just to be sure

Hi,
I bought my HTC Hero in holland.. i don't know what the differences are between HTC hero G2 or CDMA or Sprint Hero...
can anyone tell me so i can go to the right forum plz!
i want to install a ROM on it.
Thank you all!!
sorry for my english

Hero is the generic HTC phone. G2 is the T-Mobile branded phone, on which it is quite safe to install a generic hero rom. CDMA and sprint are north American variants and will brick your phone if you attempt to install roms written for them on your GSM hero.

Well thank you!
I have none of these i think.. no T-mobile and no north american variants. So is that safe also to install the g2 ROMs on my (kpn) phone wich i think is non-simlock.
Thanxx!

EDIT:UPDATE: A new quote from their Twitter. "I have confirmed we allow phones w/ unlocked bootloaders to be activated on our network. Sorry for the misinformation."

I saw this and at first I was gonna laugh, but when I thought about it, the guy has no clue. There are already phones with unlocked bootloaders on verizon. So I think maybe they mean no phones will be sold unlocked, but what you do to them after that is your business.

They guy that posted that tweet probably doesn't even know what a bootloader is.

big V just butthurt that they wont have as much power over htc phones

^ all of you are probably correct.
Both the Charge & Revolution are unlockable (unencrypted).

in fairness I did its in general meaning its doesn't necessarily have to do with anything EVO

I guess every sub gets one of these threads.
Evo 3D links back to XDA http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...ve-an-unlocked-bootloader-one-way-or-another/

From @VZWSupport:
Correction>> You CAN activate your HTC device with an unlocked bootloader on our network, we apologize for the confusion.
@grfullerton You are correct. If the bootloaders are unlocked, it does not prevent them from being activated on the Verizon network.*MS

Lets trade, my international for your Verizon.

I just moved to verizon so it makes more sense for me to trade my international tab with voice for a verizon 7.7 version.

Sorry, I'm going to be that guy. Can we please make at least a small attempt at proper English here?
Besides, maybe he has a cell phone provided through his company, or has a discount program. The dude made a post about something specific, and kneejerk reactions that provide zero utility are just noise.

maybe because he wants to. I don't have any regrets buying the verizon version yet since i haven't felt the need to root the device either
Also LTE connection is a nice thing to have on the go

Two Different international versions of the N 6P???

Hello everyone, I am looking to purchase a Nexus 6P International version. I need the international version since some of the LTE bands that I need are no available in the US version. Since the Google store wont allow you to buy the International version and have it delivered to a US address I have to go with a third party vendor. So when I check on sites like Expansys USA (This people only sell international versions, I know I checked) , I find that there are 2 different phones for the international version. They seem to have different processor and some other different specs as well as different prices.. Can anyone here tell me whats up with this???

Hi. I have an ATT Unlocked and using it here in the Philippines. Whenever I check software update, it always say that it is on the current version. After 24 hrs, I checked it again, it went to checking and then it'll say download has been interrupted. Checked again, and it said it is on the current version.
Can you advise if I should wait for the upgrade push or do something else?

Thanks that is what I did and works Great.
Would like to ask you another question dtomlin, if I buy used T-Mobile S10+ can I flash AT&T firmware and still have AT&T Wifi Calling and Enhanced Messaging??? Thanks

Really not sure on the s10, although I believe it is like the s8. Should be able to factory reset it with your at&t sim card and be fine. As long as its asn is clean
