Hey.. i am coming from US sprint CDMA version of the diamond... many of these roms look great, but i am curious as to if they will work with the CDMA version.. Has anyone tried it yet or is there a guide on how to do this? Thanks

I guess the rom itself should work.

What doesn't work is flashing the radio or SPL.
That will brick your device for sure.

the GSM roms will not work.

you will be in the same boat as users before you. stuck in boot loader.


use a rom thats made for CDMA devices, they are two different devices compleetly.

Mhmm ok :) Good to know.

I'm already having a look at CDMA radio and that one is completely different.
As for OS I thought it's just WM standard. But it seems it isn't.

Thanks for info, Juggalo_X

Thanks for info, Juggalo_Xin therory yes it is the same os. but the drivers for the radio and the SIM and such are different. causes it to not boot.

so are there any CDMA Radio's/ROMs out there?
most don't say whether they are GSM or CDMA...
